Here is a recipe for piclSled beets. Scrub and cut the stems of the beets, not too close; boil slowly in plenty of water until tender enough to prick with a toothpick.

No Waste in This Kitchen

We promised three or four days ago to treat readers to the second half of a jolly letter for which we could not make room in a single issue. We keep our word today. The letter has not suf- fered in keeping. It holds warmth and nourishn1ent:
 q took a good joke upon myself once when a neighbor Cthrough not knowing my saving qua1ties) sent me 8 large pail of bread and whole biscuits to feed the chickens My husband had taught school in little village and seeing the children throw away so much of their luncheon, he had them drop it in a basket for the fowls. There were cake, cheese, steak, eggs and plea tempting assortment. Speaking of parings. I make vinegar and jelly from apple and pear parings. Some are wastful in scraping the tray. never stick dough to the tray The leftover pieces are often tossed out but this dough makes fine crackers rolled thin, or put into milk make a spongy stuff to knead the bread with q speak of buttermilk bread). out of town as I do. Potato parings go to feed the COW and pig. Slops are thrown into the patch. Chickens and cats eat what few scraps are not usable in any other way. Eggshells are Drowned and given to the fowls. Seeds and ashes are all the refuse l think of. B. c. M
 Jewellers in city tents-alias apart ment houses-read ruefully the boast that you have no need of the garbage pail, which brings to my mind some- thing I have long meant to impart to the Corner Do you see to it that Brid- et-Dinah-Thel1la keeps the said pail lined with double newspaper, and sends the contents wrapped in the same to the scavenger? If not, she is likely to for get the necessity of the precaution. She 'can't see the sense of itt You see both dollars and cents in it when you see new pail rusted out by the acids, etc, which settle in the bottom daily. Four thicknesses of the daily paper make an effectual lining that absorbs the liquids and prevents evil odors from arising from decaying garbage It is little matter for the nominal mistress to cast an eye into the pail every day or two to make sure it is not being ruined by neglect of the simple precau- ton.

The request of a member for a recipe for pork cake has brought into our let terboX no less than a dozen replies from housewives who know whereof they speak. We gladly make room for a couple of these. It belongs of right to midwinter, being rich in fats and car bons for the upbuilding of strength and animal warmth.

RECOGNITION AS
TRUSTEE TO BE
ASKED BY king
To Attend Meeting Of Bishop
Estate Board Today; Request
is Likely to Be Denied

At 8 o'clock this afternoon Charles
E. King Wi attend meeting OF the
trustees of the Bishop Estate and re-
quest recognition as trustee. II rec
ognition Is refused him he will leave
the meeting. That he will be refused
recognition was intimated today by
A. f. Judd There Is no other course
to follow" said that trustee.
The fact that the trustees Of the
Bishop Estate have appealed temper
arily sets aside, according to law, the
provisions Of Circuit Judge Ashford's
final decree appointing King trus-
tee. The operation Of the decree Is
suspended and King is not legally a
trustee, according to attorneys in the
case.
IF King is not recognized at the
meeting today no action will be taken
for the present, says E. C. Peters,
attorney for King and the Kamehame-
ha Alumni Association, which recon-
mended Kings appointment.
Attorney Peters says he takes 1t
for granted that the remaining trus-
tees yesterday refused to sign the
joint bond of 100000 with King. The
bond was sent to the trustees by Pet
ers with the request that action be
taken before 8 o'clock. Peters says
that he has not yet heard from the
trustees. Shortly after o'clock Judge
C. w. Ashford accepted Kings indi-
vidual bond for $4,000. with the Am
sterdam Casualty Company as surety.
Attorney Clarence Fl. Olson of the
law firm of Holmes & Olson. counsel
for the Bishop Estate, says that the
remaining trustees contend that King
is not trustee but that William VIII
hanson Is trustee by virtue of the
appointment made BY majority of
the justices Of the supreme court
The next step In the case probably
will be argument on, the appeal before
the supreme court.

His Point is That Large Sum

Governor Pinkhalns reasons for 0E-
posing spending any more money BY

be secured. the governor declares:

action until you secure five months
more weir measurements before you
possibly assume to make loss OF

pointments."
Referring to the report Of the ad-
yisory board Of engineers that Sura-

almost simultaneously with that Of
the Hillebrand Glen project, the gov

taken steps to inform himself more
definitely as to the safety Of the dam
structure.
In giving out copy OF the letter
the governor said that he felt some
hesitation about making II public
prior to a meeting OF the Loan fuEd
commission, but that he also felt the
subject Is one Of great Importance TO
the people and that they are entitled
