cooked than OF the yolk. The best
ways of serving eggs for children are
poached, soft-boiled, or coddled,
though they may be scrambled for a
change IL one is careful not to scorch
the fat used or to overlook the egg.
One of the most satisfactory ways
Of cooking eggs is by coddling and is
done as follows: Allow q cupful Of
water to each egg, bring the water to
the boiling point, remove 1t from the
fire, put in the eggs, cover the dish
closely, and leave the eggs in the wa
ter for about seven minutes.
Milk and eggs, as stated above, are
common meat substitutes. Among
vegetable foods, dried beans, peas,
lentils, and cowpeas, which are often
classed together and called legumes,
are the best substitutes for meat in
the diet of older people, chiefly be-
cause they have large amounts Of
nitrogen needed for muscle building.
In this respect they have some advan-
tage, though not great one, over
cereals. Beans and the other legumes
are not to be recommended for young
children except when milk, meat, eggs,
fish, and poultry are not to be OBJ
tanned. When used they should be
cooked until they are reduced to a
mush. Since the skins are likely to
be tough, it is well to put the cooked
Ieeumes through a sieve.

vARDAMAN ON "FLUNKIES"

James X. Vardaman, United States
senator from Mississippi, has said
many biting and even bitter things
during his public career, and the other
day he took occasion to pay his re-
spects to a certain class of citizens of
Washington, in the course Of an elo-
quent plea for better citizenship made
before a mass meeting in Alexandria.
There are more funkies to the
square inch in Washington than ever
saw in my life," declared the senator,

stuff colored laborers overalls with

Senator vardaman said that pub
lie Office should be honored, but that
the man in that Office should be hon.
ored in accordance with his worth.
Honest, fearless, patriotic men and
women are needed at the ballot box

MADDEN, LONG LOST BROTHER

Martin B Madden, congressman
from Chicago, is not only wealthy. He
is also quite handsome. Nevertheless
he is not satisfied with his physical
makeup. He would be much better
pleased If he were built along more
original lines. The trouble with him is
that he looks like too many people. He
makes specially of being ringer for
the Iong-lost brothers.
On an average of once month he
gets a letter from someone who has
seen his picture and claims him as a
brother thought to have been lost at
sea or strayed from home years and
years ago.
One day he heard from woman.

also because they encourage the eat
ing of bread. The meat used should,
of course, be in good condition but
need not be from a tender cut. The
lower-priced cuts may be used with
good results, provided they are made
tender by long, slow cooking. Any
vegetable may be added, including the
tougher parts of lettuce, and the
leaves of celery. Rice, barley, maca-
roni, or even crusts of stale bread may
be used in the stew to give variety.
A stew containing little meat, with
one or more vegetables. and cereal
comes near to supplying all the need
ed foods, other than milk.
Cut the meat into small pieces,
cover with boiling water, boil for five
minutes, and then cook at a lower
temperature until the meat is tender.
This will require about three hours
on the stove or five hours in the fire.

onions, pepper and salt during the
last hour of cooking. and the potatoes
20 minutes before serving. Thicker
with the -four diluted with cold water.
If the dish is made in the fireless
cooker, the mixture must be reheated
when the vegetables are put in.
There is much to be said in favor of
keeping soup pot on the stove all
the time, provided great care is taken
not to allow the contents to grow
stale. Into this pot can go clean por-
lions of uncooked food and also clean
foods left from the table, such as
meat, milk, mashed potatoes ,or other
vegetables, crusts, cold cereal mushes,
and even fruits. Soups made from
such materials may not have great
nutritive value, but. like those made
out of materials bought for the pur-
pose, they encourage the use of a
large amount of bread, particularly If
carefully seasoned.

The use of cured fish, fresh fish ard

good for variety.
Eggs are especially useful food for
young children. The chief point to
remember in preparing them for chill
dren is that they must not be over
cooked or they are likely to cause in
digestion, as experience has shown.
Everyone knows how the heat Of cook

understand why the digestive juices

DEMOCRATS PUBLICITY MAN

When the joint finance and execu-

cratic national committee selected
Frederick w. Steckman as director of
publicity for the national committee in
the coming presidential campaign, it
picked one of the most experienced
and popular of the newspaper writer's
and correspondents in Washington.
Mr.. Steckman, who was born In
Princeton, Mo-, thirty-six years ago,
first went to Washington about 1904 as
correspondent of the st. Louis Repub-
lie. For some years now he has been
a political writer for the Washington
Post and besides has covered the capt.
toll and the White House for the New
Orleans Daily States. However, he be-
gan his newspaper activities when he
was less than ten years old.
In 1912 Mr.. Steckman was In
charge of the Chicago headquarters of
the Democratic national committee,
