VEGETABLE RECIPE BY UNCLE SAM

Turnips are generally spoiled by
overlooking. The fat white turnip
when sliced will cook in 80 minutes.
Here is Uncle Sans recipe Tor hash
ed turnips:
Chop boiled turnips. Return to the
stewpan, and for pint and half
of turnips add tesspoonful salt,
one-fourth teaspoonful pepper, a
tablespoonful butter, and four table
spoonfuls water. Cook over a very
hot fire until the turnips have alb
sorbed all the seasonings. Serve at
once.
Or the salt, pepper, butter, and a
tablespoonful of -four may be added
to the hashed turnips; then the stew
pan may be placed over the hot fire
and shaken frequently to toss up the
turnips. When the turnips have been
cooking five minutes add half a pint
of meat stock or milk and cook ten
minutes.
The quickest and simplest methods
of cooking cabbage are the best.

cabbage, one-haf teaspoonful pepper.
Salt if necessary.
Fry the sausages. Take from the

Fat of some kind is necessary in
cooking dried beans, according to
Uncle Sans cooking experts. The
fat has softening influence on the
composition of the beans. Dried
beans saute can be served in place of
baked beans.
Boil the beans until tender, but
not broken. Drain off the water. For

MOTHERHOOD.

My neighbor's house is not so high
nor half so nice as mine,
often see the blinds ajar, and
through the curtains fine,
'Tis only muslin, and the steps are
not of stone at all,
And yet l long for her small home
to give mine all in all.
Her lawn is never left to grow, the
children tread it down,
And when the father comes at night
/ hear them clatter down
The gravel walk-and such noise
comes to my listening ears
AS my sad heart is waiting for many
silent years,
Sometimes | peep to see them siezt
his coat, and hands and knees
All three so eager to be first, anc
hear her call:
Don't tease
Papa!" the baby springs and then the
low brown door
Shuts in their happiness-and l sit
wishing as before,
That my neighbors' little cottage and
Jewels Of her crown,
Had been my own-my mansion with
its front of freestone brown.
It's danask and its Honiton, its lawn
so green and bright,
How gladly would I give them fol
her motherhood tonight.

SUNSET CLUB AND SUNSHINE EXCHANGE

The object of the Sunset club is to
give opportunity for sympathetic en-
enlargement and cooperation to those
of "Three Score and More" or those
approaching that age, whose pressing
duties are lifted from their should
ers and whose unaccustomed leisure
seems almost unwelcome.
In the outside world, however, they
can find great opportunities, where
their talent, ability and experience
will be appreciated; and it is the eff
fort of the Sunset club to show them
the way of reaching these waiting
openings.
The club is to consist of small
groups of congenial people who will
meet at will for the pursuit of mu-
tual pleasure and profit, and who will
reach out to help others, elsewhere.
to do the same.
Wherever the 1.-TWO or three are
gathered together" the work grows,
for the simplicity appeals to all.
Anyone may start club of her
own. It is the idea and not the par
ent organization that is the import
ant thing, but for the sake of greater
mutual benefit it seems better that
all should come under one head, even
though each branch preserve its in
dividuality.
"Let the intellectual ones get to-
gether to enjoy the Feast of Reason
and the Flow of Soul"
Let those rich and happy spend OF
their riches and their joy to give to
others, not in the way of charity but
of loving kindness.
Let those who are sick for synpa-
thy be put in touch with those who
have all good things to spare and
a heart full of sympathy.
There can be clubs for the lonely
whether they are all alone in the
world or "set in families"
Industrious ones can meet and in
struct each other in the mysteries Of
fancy work, or encourage effrts to
ward making useful things.
It can be Silverhaired Sisterhood
permeated with love and sympathy
and kindliness.
One generously disposed can fine
vent for that great virtue by getting
in touch with those who need JUS
what she has to give, and who may
reciprocate by giving her clearer
insight into the lives around her.
Those who are friendless ant
homeless can in time find spot t.
call their ovn, for we hope soon t.
have many places where shelter ant
food can be provided at small cos
and the means to pay for it put int
their hands, earned through thei
own efforts.
Such places-real homes-for resi-
dent members can be so systematical
ly run by intelligent cooperation tina
the maximum amount of comfort ca
be given at a minimum expense.
Il is to be understood that the Sun
set club is not charity or even
philanthropy, in the modern sense o
the word, but is simply practical CO
operation between individuals of tn
required age.
Those who have happy homes ca
open them in some degree to tn
homeless ones.

Y. w. C. A. REST ROOM GROWS
IN POPULARITY

When the Y. w. C. A. Rest Room
was launched in Pensacola it was a
decided venture, and while there was
firm faith in its success, even those
who were directly interested, hardly

it has enjoyed.

business women and shoppers found

weather is here, one finds it no less
pleasant and convenient to stop in
this cozy room for rest, warm
lunch and the cordial welcome which
one always finds.
