OF VEAL AND CHICKEN
ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL THE
ACCEPTED SALADS.
Whether Made of Leftovers or the
Fresh Material, There Are Ger
tain Rules Which the House.
wife Must Observe.

Unless the salad is to be made of
leftovers, the chicken should be es-
pecially boiled, carefully seasoned
while cooking and allowed to cool in
the water in which it is cooked. A
generous piece of veal may be cooked
at the same time with the chicken, or
cold veal can be warmed over in the
chicken broth or in hot salt water, to
which few chicken bones have been
added. 1t also should be allowed to
stand in the water in which it has
been heated until cold, then cut up
into even dice and used the same as
chicken. Where a large quantity of
salad is to be made one good size
chicken, freshly cooked, as a basis
with an addition of veal and as much
more canned chicken as is necessary
to make up the amount required, will
be found an economy of both money
and labor.
In boiling a chicken for salad, put
into kettle of boiling water. add a
chopped onion, couple of sticks of
celery or half teaspoonful of celery
salt; couple of bay leaves, table,
spoonful of chopped carrot and a
dozen peppercorns. Just a tiny bit
of fat salt pork may be added if de-
sired. Let the contents of the kettle
boil rapidly five minutes, then push
back where the water will only sim
mer, until the chicken is tender.
Cooked in this way the dark meat will
be almost as light colored as the
white.
Now let the chicken cool in the wa
ter in which it has been cooked. 1t
is well to cook both chicken and veal
the day before the salad is to be used.
When ready to make the salad, re-
move the flesh from the bones, re-
jecting all the skin and fat, cut the
meat into dice and measure. Add as
much or half as much as veal, as de-
sired If the salad is not to be served
Immediately, sprinkle the meat with a
little lemon juice and set away in a
cold place Cut into dice enough crisp
white celery to make about two-thirds
the quantity Of meat, and have ready
a good mayonnaise. At serving time,
mix with meat and over each quart of
the mixture sprinkle teaspoonfu1 of
salt and half teaspoonful of pepper.
Moisten with some of the broth In
which the chicken was cooked (for a
dry salad is an abomination), and
enough mayonnaise to coat every
piece. Mix thoroughly but lightly and
turn into salad bowl lined with let
tuce leaves or on platter where the
leaves have been made into little
cups, each sufficient to hold helping
of the salad. This looks pretty and
makes the serving easier. Spread
little more mayonnaise on top of each
service and garnish with stuffed
olives or the little sweet red canned
peppers and celery tips. A quarter
pound of almonds blanched and quar-
tered may be added to each pint of
chicken and veal, if you desire some
thing especially nice for wedding or
other entertainment

piece of butter. Set aside in spoonfuls

Allgemeine Zeitung has made further
reply TO the recent speech of Sir Ed
ward Grey, the British foreign secre-
tary in London, on the causes of the
war, The paper says:
THE British proposal was for a
conference July %, but Russia had
started military preparations July %.
Nevertheless Sir Edward Grey on July
20 admitted to the German ambassa-
dor It was best to have an Austro-
Russian understanding but on the
same day announced to the French
ambassador Great Britain's readiness
to take sides with the entente pow
ers.
"Sir Edward in his speech omits
reference to the Russian mobilization
Of July 3d. which forced the Germans
to mobilize and made war unavoida-
bic, and the British secret conventions
with France and Russia, which were
known in Germany ana We're the
causes for the increase in the German
army Sir Edward declined British
neutrality in the case of Germany but
he respected Belgian neutrality.
Germany is not fighting to sub
due the continent but for her own in
dependence ana the freedom Of the

SERBIA SUFFERS
FROM TYPHUS IN
MALIGNANT FORM
Plague Is Believed to Have
Been Caused by ConSign-
ment of 10000 Austrian
Prisoners,


New York, March 26.--Serbia is in
the grip Of an epidemic Of typhus
more virulent and attended by greater
fatality than the world IN modern
times has ever been called upon to
combat according to Henry James,
Jr, Of the war relief commission Of
the Rockefeller foundation, who ar
rived here tonight on the steamer Lu-
sitania from Liverpool
MIR, James, accompanied by Ernest
L. Bicknell national director of the
American Red Cross, also a member
Of the commission We're in Serbia
from February 10 to February g.
The epidemic of typhus" said Mr..
James, was brought into Serbia
probably with the first consignment of
Austrian prisoners, said TO number
about $4,000. Serbia being q small
country was not prepared to adc-
quately handle such an immense body
of men As a result they were dis
tributed among the population
wherever they could be taken care of.
This caused overcrOWded ana unsan-
itary conditions, which are highly in
ducive to HE spread OF typhus.
indicative Of the seriousness Of
the epidemic. Serbia lost 100 out Of
500 OF the physicians working among
the victims of typhus during January
and February While these figures
do not indicate the average mortality
Of the country from typhus, they do
indicate that the doctors cannot con-
troll 1t under the present conditions"
Typhoid les also prevalent in Ser
bia now, as are other infections of
less danger than typhus. Cholera is
expected To become prevalent this
month.
The country Is exhausted econom-
ically by the recent wars ana it now
has TO import almost everything in

and sanitary supplies
Lack of transportation facilities to
Serbia seriously operates against
rapid organization of hospitals

Red Cross unit are doing all that can
be expected of them"
AIR. James spoke of the work of
the late Lady Paget in Serbia He
said that she took upon herself the
hardest of tasks for the relief of the
stricken people and that she had re-
signed herself TO become a possible /
victim.
