CHICKEN VERSUS FOWL.
How to Vary Your Menu and Save
Your Expenses.

The prices for chicken from January
to July are such as to prevent a larS"
number of people from using them.
For the other half Of the year there IS
generally a considerable modification
downward of price. But even after the
chicken is within financial reach we
may still satisfy our taste Tor this
species of meat by buying the hen.
which If pot roasted to perfection is
almost rival Of fried chicken ana
is the only thing for soup and chicken
broth.
Although the chicken has incompara-
bly, the daintiest and finest flavor, Il
good many cooks blind us to the fact
by drying it up so much in the cooking.
If this is done on top of the stove it
should receive almost unremittlng at
tention, as the point between just right
and all wrong is almost Il vanishing
one 1t needs as careful attention
when fried as mushrooms do to keep
the water in, not dry it out.
The edible portion Of Il broiler when
dressed and cleaned is within two
tenths of / per cent of being % pcl
cent water An old hen is less than Ga
per cent water. There is more strlk
ing difference between the fat content
of the two.
1t is mainly on this account that
there is such difference between tn.
caloric value Of the tWo-that is, the
heat and energy value OF these two
foods as human fuel. According to one
table based on twentysix analyses OF

492.

or fry chicken. 1t takes good SENSE

INVESTING MONEY.
Choose Between Speculative Risks and
Safe Securities.


A famous capitalist, writing to Ida
NJ Tarbcll in the American Magazine,
says:
"Thcre is no man in the world who
can honestly say that he can invest
money and bc certain of permanent
large returns. The big dividends come
from speculative ventures, and nobody
should make them unless he is willing
and able to lose all he puts in.

l shall not do it. l shall return the
money. If she could afford to lose it,
that would be another thing.
"Therc is only one safe way for peo-
pie to invest. and that is to choose
sound. conservative bonds or stocks,
and that after consultation With trust

that some men We're in her playhouse

Mrs. Bickford had heard of the train

shi and lkusa gokko Are All Popular.
One Of the most popular games among
Japanese children is otedama, played
with small cloth bags filled with red
beans. The number of bags used is
seven or ten. The game consists in
throwing the bags into the air one aft
or another in quick succession, trying
to catch them before they reach the
ground. The idea is to keep all the
bags in motion.
Another popular game is ishikcri, or
stone kicking Chalk lines arc drawn

Consider the Stomach,

The evil habit OF going too long with
out food is one from which many peo-
pie suffer in this present age. Men
sit in their offices, women rush about
shopping, and both become so absorbed
in their respective interests that the
period of hunger is allowed to pass
and that of fatigue and depression to
set in. The worst feature of such
cases is that once the second stage is
reached the desire for food is gone. and
after this treatment of oneself the
stomach is too exhausted to digest Il
meal when taken. This extreme should
be avoided. 1t is only necessary to take
Il light diet. \ glass of milk. bis

Slip Your Garments on a Hanger In

Never leave your suits or dresses
lying on Il chair or on the bed rail, but
put Il hanger in them the minute you
take them off. 1t is simply matter
of habit. and it is just as easy to learn
to slip hanger into your coat and put
it in the closet ut once as it is to throw
it on Il chair. to hang up later. Creases
and wrinkles Wear out the cloth. and
the only way to keep your clothes free
of wrinkles is to hang them up when
YOU remove them.
Shoes, too. retain their shape much
longer if trees are kept In them. You
can always tell the shoes which are
neglected by their wrinlled. shapeless

! two to slip shoe trees into your boots
when you take them off. and this will

MARSHALL GETS RIGHT
 TO REGISTER APPEAL
Federal Attorney May Put His Case
 Before Supreme Court.

New York, July 21-Federa1 Dis trict Attorney H. Snowden Marshall was today granted by Judge Hand the opportunity of appealing to the United States supreme court from Judge Hands recent decision denying the writ of habeas corpus the attorney is- sued to prevent his removal to Wash ington to answer charges of contempt before the house of representatives.
 Judge Hand ruled that the appeal would have to be taken before Aug. 15 Meantime, District Attorney Mar shall is taken from the custody of the sergeant at arms of the house and placed in the custody of the local court If the supreme court does not return a decision before Dec. 1 next the district attorney will be returned to the custody of the sergeant at arms for removal to Washington.
 The stipulation that the appeal must be made on or before August 15 was included in Jude Hands order at the suggestion of Martin W. Littleton, the attorney representing the house. He said that the house is not expected to adjourn until after that date and that by having the appeal made before adjournment the question could not be later raised that the adjournment au- tomatically closed the case.
