to cover a goOd-sized tray. The small
est, prettiest dishes should be placed
on it and everything in an orderly
manner. All hot foods should be
served hot and cold foods cold on
well-chilled dishes.
For a fever patient, fruit Juice in
cold water makes most refreshing
drinks. Serve in small glasses rather
than in too large quantities. This is
a rule which should be observed in
all serving to sick people.
Oatmeal GrueI.-Take two-thirds of
a cupful of oatmeal, add three pints
of boiling water and a teaspoonful of
salt; cook for two and a half hours
in a double boiler. Remove from the
fire and strain. When using for a
patient, use half cupful of the cruel

tablespoonfuls of boiling water and
sugar to taste. A grating of nutmeg
or cinnamon may be added in some
cases. Other gruels may be prepared
in the same manner, using barley.

Chicken Custard.-Take a cupful
and half of crumbs from the center

fuls of finely chopped chicken breast.
Beat the yolks of two eggs until well
mixed, add to them a dash of celery

a Home Without Pair,

There is scarcely a home in many
places that does not have, ready for
instant use, a bottle of Minard's Lini-
ment, because this old, reliable. creamy
liniment always brings speedy relief
from pain. It's influence is felt the
moment it is applied--and it has been
sold successfully in thousands of towns
Tor more than so years-because most
every one knows that where Minard's
is, you will find q home without pain.
Pain of every kind gives way to a
simple Minard Liniment treatment. 1t
IS stainless, economical and clean to
1se, and is always dependable.
