FAIR SEX IN THE MAJORITY

For Response.

Some Of the visiting ministers have
told some good stories about one an
other during the Laymen's Missionary
Movement convention here. says the
San Diego Union. This is one that
was handed to Rev Hugh l.. Burle-
son:
A young couple came into his rooms
just as he was going to begin service
in the church and asked him to marry
them. He said if they would wait until
after the service he would give them
public wedding.
After the benedicti0n he announced.
Now. will those persons wishing to
be married please come forward" Il
is recorded in the story that eleven
women and one man answered to the
call.
An offset to that story is one told by
DR.. AIonzZo r. Petty of woman who
was before a judge asking for a di-
vorce. The judge leaned over the desk
and said to the woman:
Madam. how long did you know
this man before you were married? ~

quainted with him for eighteen
months. but | never really knew him

MAKING MEAT TENDER
HOW THE INEXPENSIVE CUTS
MAY BE EMPLOYED.
Pounding Flour Into Them Is Recon-
mended as One Method-Choppinq
Fine Is Another Excellent Way
of improving Them.

When the housekeeper attempts to
! reduce her meat bill by using the less
expensive cuts she has two difficulties
to contend with-toughness and lack
of flavor Pounding meat before cook
ing is an old-fashioned method of max
ing it tender, but while this process
breaks down the tough tissues it also
releases the juices, driving them out,
, and with them the favor. A good way
is to pound -four into the meat This
catches and holds the juices
A very palatable and economical
dish can be made from a round steak
as follows: Pound -four into both sides
of the steak, as much as the meat will
take up. Fry in drippings or other fat
in an ordinary pan of kettle, then add
water to cover it. Cover the vessel
tightly, so that no steam can escape
| and allow the meat to simmer very
gently for two hours. 1t is then ready
to serve, the gravy being already
thjskened by the flour beaten into the
steak. This gravy is delicious and far
superior to the kind made in the or
binary way after the meat is cooked
Another very tasty dish is Spanish
beefsteak Take a piece of round
steak weighing two pounds and about
an inch thick. Pound until thin, sea-
son with salt and cayenne pepper,
cover with a layer of bacon or salt
pork sliced, roll and tie with a cord.
place in covered baking dish. Pour
around it half a cupful each of milk
and water Cook two hours, basting
occasionally
Chopping meat is one of the princi.
pal methods of making tough and in
expensive meat tender. Chopped
meats have another advantage in that
they may be cooked quickly and eco
| nomically. Chopped raw meat of al
| most any kind can be very quickly
| made into a savory dish by cooking
| it with water or with water and milk
for a short time, then thickening with
butter and -four, and adding different
| seasoning as preferred, either pepper
and salt alone or onion juice, celery,
or tomato. Such dish may be made
| to go further by serving it on slices
of toast or surrounded by wall of
! rice or macaroni.
In broiling chopped meat, success
fully the point is to scar the surface
very quickly so that the juices may
be kept in. and then to allow the
heat to penetrate to the inside until
the whole mass is cooked to the taste
OF the family. To begin with, the
broiler should be well creased 9th
erwise the cakes or balls may be
broken when removing them from the
broiler They should be heated on
both sides more quickly than a steak,
because the chopping has allowed the
juice to escape and the openings
should be sealed as quickly as posi-
BILE.
Hamburg steak is made from mex
pensive bits of beef chopped, seasoned
little, and shaped into fiat cakes or
steaks. If possible the chopping
should be done at home, so that the
meat may be cooked at once Some
housekeepers think Hamburg steak is
improved by mixing the meat with a
little milk before cooking

WITH STALE BREAD
MANY DISHES MAY BE PREPARED
FROM REMNANTS.
Can Be Put to Excellent Use for
stuffino and Meat FryIng-Bread
custard Pudding 10 Good
Jelly for lnvalids.

OF all the leftover remnants of food
from the kitchen bread Is the most
common, perhaps, and many pieces are
daily thrown away which a little
thought would turn to excellent use. II
the leftover pieces are not utilized the
same day, an excellent plan is to wrap
them in pieces of waxed paper and
store them in stone jar. They will
keep well for week in this way.
Dried Crumbs for Stuffing and Meat
Frying.-Put the crusts and small
pieces in baking pan and dry in the
oven without burning. They may then
be put through the food chopper and
stored in clean Mason jars until want
ed. They may be used as a basis for
meat croquettes, poultry stuffing and
other things.
French toast may be made from the
whole slices of leftover bread. It Is
an excellent luncheon pickup dish.
Beat an egg and add little milk. Dip
the slices of bread in this and fry a
nice brown in hot drippings. Serve
with butter, Jelly or marmalade.
Bread custard Pudding.-Cut the
bread in dainty shapes and butter lib
orally. Make pain c,1stard Of eggs,
milk and sugar. Put in baking dish
and float the buttered bread on top.
Sprinkle with grated nutmeg and bake
in quick oven until brown. This is
excellent.
To make croutons for the various
soups so much relished in season, cut
the bread in cubes and fry in butter or
dripping just before serving with the
soup. Add five or six to each plate of
soup. These are delicious with almost
any soup.
Bread Jelly for lnvaIids.-Scald the
stale bread freed from crusts. Mash
to paste until Of mushlike consisten-
cy. Add little sugar and f1avoring,
mold, chill and serve with cream.
Sterilized bread crumbs are epecial-
ly valuable for the young children in
the household. A jar should be kept
filled with these. They may be heated
when wanted and sprinkled in soft
eggs, soups, milk. fruit juices and, in
deed, anything eaten by very young
children where fresh bread is often
positively dangerous.
Dried bread is also valuable for mix
ing with various other foods for feed
ing the household pets.
