Varieties of Vegetables-Of Wa

interesting receipts for them:
Egg Salad.-A delicious egg salad

car be used plentifully in luncheon
salads-is made in this way: Boil the
eggs hard for 20 minutes and cool.

mashed sardine. Form into balls
about the size Of egg yolks. Place
a couple on each plate of crisp white
lettuce leaves. Press the whites
through a ricer and sprinkle over the
yolks. Serve with mayonnaise.
Another egg salad is made in this
way: Boil the eggs hard and devil
them and serve two halves on a slice
of tomato on each plate, with a leaf
of crisp lettuce in which a big spoon
full Of mayonnaise is placed.
Still another good egg salad is made
by cutting hard-boiled eggs in half and
removing the yolks. Fill the whites
with diced beets and peas, mixed with
mayonnaise, and put on lettuce leaves.
Sprinkle with the crumbled yolks and
add a spoonful Of mayonnaise to each
plate.

Mixed Salade-All sorts Of mixed
vegetable salads are palstable at this

peppers and dicsd celery, mixed with
French dressing, are good. Then there
are diced tomatoes, peppers and
cucumbers. There are string beans.
with diced beets, and there are tomato
and celery together. All can be served

Decoration of the Home.

It is not "a matter of taste" when
we accept for u homes decoration
those forms of beauty which we do
not sympathetically understand; it IS
a matter of intellectual laziness.
We take what is smart for the mo-
ment without a question of its fitness
and a%daptability for our individual
needs, and in so doing we lose that
greater delight, which is the soul OF
art and which Is our only thorough
sincere study and search of the dec
sorative fundamentals upon which the
artists and lovers of the beautiful have
built.-House and Garden.

Ranionship with nature, which are a

things grow. They make a man
grow, too; add health and

uictuals. Tending a little garden
smskes a good citizen out Of a man;
gives him better thoughts; makes him

Reptler accent to his voice. And then,

den, how happy he is to gather it and

LOOK TO THE VACANT LOT
"A Little Cleaning Up of the Space
Now VIII Result in Profit in
the Future.

Owners of unimproved property IN
this city who wish to sell it should
take heed of a suggestion that comes
from Minneapolis, where the matter
has been under practical considera'
ton. This is that any lot Of ground
offered for sale has a better chance
of finding a market If it is kept in at
tractive order than if neglected and
allowed to present an unkempt, unat'
tractive appearance. Of course, as a
mere building site, it makes no diff
ference to a prospective purchaser
whether a lot is neatly tufted or is a
sveritable dump laden with trash.
!BpHding operations are not deferred
by refuse. But there is something
psychological in the appeal of a we'll
kept vacant lot that gives it a pulling
power over a t~rash-covered, weed
grown, unsightly place.
The cumulative effect of well-tended
vacant properties reaching to a stand
ard Of orderliness throughout the city
is u~nmistakable. Every real estate
owner with property of this character
to sell is interested in attracting the
attention Of buyers from outside. Such
BUYERS are more surely drawn to a
city that presents no unlovely aspects
than to one that is peppered with eye
sores.
The cost of keeping a vacant lot in
order is slight and it should be reck-
pned by the owner as part of the over
head charge, along with the interest.
1t has been suggested that this cost
may be added to the price of the prop
erty when it is sold. However it Is
borne, whether by the owner or the
sltimate purchaser, it is a good in
syestment. It makes for quicker sales
iand meanwhile for a more attractive
fcity, which in itself is an asset shared
by every owner Of property.
This is the season to consider this
Tuestion. Already the preparations
Aor park work are under way. The
ground in the public reservations is
being raked, trash Is being hauled
aIay, and in a few weeks the city will
BE blossoming. Every owner of a va
can't lot should consider his bit of
ground as part Of the city's park sys-
Gem and put it in order just as care
fully as the tree-grown spaces under

of Friction.

Evidences are plentiful today
that the democratic membership

gressional program, and inclined
to respond to his appeal to in-span
and drag the bogged-down legis
lative machine out of the slough.
When the President returns from his
western trip he will find that ma
terial progress has been made upon
these legislative propositions which the
administration demands.

FRENCH STATEMENT.

Last nights French Official statement
reads:
In Belgium last night We effectively
bombarded the trenches and tunnels
of the enemy in the region of Steen-
straete, where encircling movements
were noted.
In Artois in the course of the day the
enemy exploded in the neighborhood
of the road from La Folie, north
east Of Neuville-St WAIST. several
mines. the craters of which he oc-
cupied. But near the road between
Melville and Thelus We drove the
enemy from the last craters occupied
by him. There has been very violent
whole of this sector.
In the region of Roye our artillery and
our trench guns shattered to the
west of Laucourt work which the
enemy was Obliged to evacuate. Our
patrols were able to enter the work
and brought back material aban-
doned by the Germans.
Last night a Zeppelin dropped on VIII
lagos in the region of Epernay a few
bombs, which caused only insignifi-
cant material damage. The dirigible
was cannonaded by a section of our
auto guns at the moment of re-en-
tering its lines. To the west of
Pont Mousson We carried out on

Soreness Over PORK" Veto.

When the President departs tomor-
row night there will be but one acuteIy
sore spot among the democrats-disap D.
pointment over the public building ap-
preparations, against which the Presi-
dent has determinedly set his face.
And that is a sore spot. indeed, for
many democrats are fighting mad over
his inhibition of projects deemed by
them necessary to their own political
welfare. 1t remains to be seen how
this feature will work out.
One other rift in the lutte, of lesser
consequence. however. remains. and
that is the opposition to some of the
forms of revenue raising suggested by
the President. AS to this, though, the
President is not concerning himself,
leaving to the democrats of the House
the working out of their own destiny.
What the President wants is revenue
and ne is quite content to let the House,
vested by the Constitution with duty
and responsibility. designate the ways
and means of raising it.
