Scotch ArNth.

The following recipe was given me
at famous Dickens hotel in Eng
land: Take the liquor any mutton has
been boiled In and remove the fat
when cold. Wash a cupful of pearl
barley and put 1t on to boil. When
done add to the liquor also a turnip,
carrot, onion, and a little celery. Boil
until the vegetables are tender and
serve. Grated raw carrot on the
top Of this soup improves the flavor
and adds much to the appearance.
There was enough of the stock, proba-
bly, large kettleful, so that the broth
was thin. A single pound of mutton
shoulder, the fat and skin removed be-
fore 1t is cooked In two quarts of wa
ter, will flavor q barley liquid sufi-
GENTLY for delicate soup, but three
pounds are often used. To preserve
some of the strength of the meat,
which may be taken out and used
with a gravy or a curry sauce, saute
It in hot fat and add boiling water to
cook It, Left over barley porridge
may be used for thickening a broth.

CHICKEN WITH CHEESE SAUCE
New Way of Preparing Always Popu-
lar Dinner or Luncheon Dish Is
Well Worth Trying.

When you wish to serve chicken In
a novel way, try boiled chicken with
cheese cream sauce.
Take a chicken trussed for boiling
rub 1t over with lemon juice; place a
piece of slitted fat bacon on the breast,
tie it on; wrap the chicken in a we'll
buttered cloth, put 1t into stewpan
with sufficient boiling water to cover
with three or four sliced onions, a
bunch of herbs, about II black and
white peppercorns, and enough salt to
season it; bring to the boil, and sim
mer for 40 to 60 minutes, according to
the size of the fowl Then take up,
remove the string and paper and dish
up on bed of steamed rice. Garnish
with parsley and button mushrooms {;
serve the chicken for dinner while hot
with cheese cream sauce.
Cheese Cream Sauce.-Take four
ounces Of good Swiss cheese, cut 1t up
into very fine slices, put into a stew
pan with half a cupful of cream and
one-half a cupful of bechamel sauce
and dust of paprika pepper; stir
these ingredients over the fire until
they melt, then use.

Before the summer sports or pas
time suits have vanished from our
midst their successor has entered and
made it's bow. 1t is destined to bloom
with the goldenrod and asters and it
is naturally of heavier materials than
the suits for summer weather. Serge,
velveteen, and corduroy contribute to
it's durability and to its style as well.
1t is likely that these new sports
suits for autumn will be innocent of
stripes. Those shown so far are of
plain materials or of plaids and plain
fabrics made up together, and they
are undeniably smart. Young or old,
women wear about the same styles in
them, and they subtract years from the
matron's appearance in way to make
her rise up and call them blessed,
besides cheerfully parting with her
good money for them.
Among the most enticing suits, those
made of white serge combined with
the same materials in handsome col
ored plaids are triumphing. Some
times the skirt is white and the coat
of the plaid with white collar and
cuffs. Or a white skirt is banded with
plaid, and a white coat has plaid cuffs
and collar, belt and pockets.
When the story is not told in plaids
it veers to colored velveteens or cor
duroys. In the picture a white serge
skirt is worn with taupe gray coat

Two very elegant hats, made for
those In mourning, are shown. They
will satisfy the most discriminating
taste, for they fulfill all the require
ments for correct millinery of this par
ticular kind. They are made in con-
servative and becoming shapes, of
English Grape or of a specially woven
silk and Grape, and the workmanship
In them is above reproach.
An all-crape hat is shown at the
left, and all the world over its import
is understood. 1t is the material used
for the first period of mourning. The
shape is a dropping brimmed sailor of
moderate size, and it is covered
smoothly with Grape. The facing is
of the same exquisite material. Grape
is of a texture that lends itself to the
making of flower forms, and the trim
ming of this hat is made of Grape.
There are four large roses, each made
of three sizes of Grape petals set about
q cabochon of Grape at the center of
the flower. The hat is lined with a
soft silk.
The second hat is of silk with a
wing made of folds of the silk and
Grape. 1t extends across the front of
the hat and terminates In a large
cabochon at the right side.

ENVOY.


Close by the barracks of the Foreign
Legion there is little garden and be-
yond the garden a kind OF chapel.
Within are many relics of glorious
past.
On the walls are the pictures OF the
great dead.
1t is the Legions Holy Ground.
Colonel Destinn entered for the last
time. Outside, beyond the garden, he
could hear the tramp OF feet and the
gay call OF bugle. Here everything
was peace. Deep shadows hid the
watching portraits but In the midst,

Colonel Destinn drew softly nearer
to where a woman heavily yelled, knelt
in prayer. Before her were two
wreaths. One bore an imperial crown.
the other a simple inscription

AS Destinn approached the yelled

side her.

was worthy of his race"

He left her. He went out again into
the evening sunshine. An orderly held
his horse in readiness and four hun

rhythm of the Legion's war song. He
swung himself into the saddle.

rode on alone. No man spoke to him.
There was on his face a grave and

And before him lay the desert and
the night shadows, which were but a
promise of another day.

something which then seemed very
agonlzing? Perspective changes the
appearance of things greatly An
emotional nature exaggerates things
frightfully at the actual time of their

of taking its own pleasures or its
own SORROWS too seriously. II knows
that nothing lasts-but life is change
and nux and alterations.
Since this is so, why agonize over
something today which doesn't seem
very important tomorrow, specially
so since you only wear yourself out

Looking For Trouble.

Ii you are one of those foolish
souls who look for trouble, make up
your mind at once to right about face
and look in the opposite direction
from now on.
1t is good thing to remember that
almost everything reaches its great
est value in neutrality-suspicious.
and trouble alike, pain and Weight as
well.
Worrying about things doesn't
make them one bit easier to bear
but instead weakens ones powers of
endurance and means that a certain
amount of energy which ought to be
expended in the actual meeting of a
situation has been wasted in plan
ming how to meet it.
The trouble for which one looks
very often fail to arrive-but'in their
stead comes others which It takes
all Of ones strength to bear at the
moment Of their coming. Isn't it
tragically foolish then that one bit
Of strength and force should have
been wasted in imagining how one
would endure AN unpleasant set of
situations which one never had to
endure?
The girl who is doomed to spend
her summer i'm the city is very like
ly TO wonder with self pity how she
is going to get through the long, hot,
lonely days and the sultry uneventful
evenings. Then perhaps cold,
rainy summer arrives where she has
to endur an entirely different set of
conditions from the one about which
she was worrying.
II is a good idea to remember that
nothing is very serious--and that we
give things a value and importance
hopelessly beyond their actual grav-
ity.
