Knives, Forks and Spoons

Sets of kitchen knives may sound
eStravagant to the woman who has
managed to keep house for years with
one kitchen knife and that an indiffer-
emily good one. Really, it is saving
to have set" They come in threes,
bread knife, cake knife and pairing
knife, and range all along the scale
of prices according to whether they are
hand forged, drop-forged, or stamped.
Some are made in America" and some
abroad, but the American made ones
are just as fine, if you will pay the
same price for them, as the imported
ones. Good steel knives and forks,
with fine temper and well made handles
are worth good price and we should
pay it cheerfully for they last as long
as we need them.
Kitchen knives and forks have rough
wear at the best, for in cooking they
are subjected to extremes of heat and
cold and are left to lie in dish water
and sometimes put away without dry
ing. Then when they are found rusted
they are frightened by hardest possible
rubbing with bath brick.
To get best results when cooking you
need the set mentioned and butchers
knife and palette knife or spatula for
turning cakes and so on. CANVAS
or leather pocket divided like travel
er's case makes convenient holder for
the work forks and knives, and they
are easier to come at than when kept
in drawers. A cork dipped into pow
dered pumice makes a good polisher for
kitchen cutlery.

Woodenware spoons are for stirring
acid things and as they are light, do
not scratch and are noiseless, they are
used wherever possible. The timed
iron spoons are stronger and are used
for basting, heavy beating and wher.
ever strength is needed.
The salad mixing sets always contain
a wooden spoon and fork, and some
times the spoon is slotted. This is
a good idea as the salad mixtures
should be put together briskly and the
holes in the salad spoon hasten the
mixing process.
Woodenware must never be scraped
when it is cleaned but allowed to stand
in water until whatever adheres is
easily removed. Too long soaking,
however, makes it crack; so, with all
nice things, we must use it carefully.

whom an unkind fate had dropped
down in their midst.
At the hall door Mrs. Chichester told
Jarvis that her niece was not to leave

thing about it was in the most ex-

white and gold, the vases of Sevres, a
few admirable prints on the walls and
roses everywhere.
Left to her reflections. poor Peg
found herself wondering how people
with so much that was beautiful
around them could live and act as the
Chichester family apparently did They
seemed to borrow nothing from their
once illustrious and prosperous dead.
They were, It would appear, only con-

What an unequal condition Of things
where such people were endowed with

father had to struggle all his life for

inch howitzer shell is not pink with
fright. After the first ten one gets
quite used to them. but really they
are terrible.
"They hit a house. You can see the

explosion, the whole house simply lifts

Of shell are horribly jagged, sharp

tear, cut, lacerate and destroy.

TURKISH sol -DIERS.
They Are Always Prepared and Eve
Willing TO Fight.

WHutU0 " G'6Uts
The popular western conception Of
the Turkish army is something In the
nature OF wild zouave. marshaled in
battalions and fred with fana tical,
homicidal mania. But nowhere In Tur.
key will you find such conception
realized.
The great majority Of Ottoman regu.
lars are singularly plain. unpicturesque.
unpretentious soldiery. On their heads
they wear either gray bashlyks wound
turbanwise, or plain fezzes or "kal.
paks" of yellowish brown color cor.
responding to their German made uni
forms of rough woolen cloth. Their
legs are wound in a bulky way with
the same material I'm Turkish con.
ception of puttee. and on their feet
either short boots or the soft leather
moecasin-like shoes of the Balkans
give them comfortable agricultural
look.
Singly or in bulk, there is nothing at
all smart about them. but they look
exceedingly equal to the delivery OF
the goods. Altogether they appear as
well able to fade indistinguishably into
the landscape as anything human
could. Many of them are Anatolians
and some are ruddy faced Kurds from
the Caucasus. Others come from the
Taurus mountains. back Of Konia and
Aleppo. swarthy Syrians and Arab
types.
Any one of them will fight at the
drop Of a hat. He would not have to
change anything. There is nothing
about him to polish or to be kept clean.
AS he stands he sleeps and eats. drills,
marches and goes into battle.-World's
