Radishes IN the Spring.
By FRANCES MARSHALL

Some very good cooks have little to
do with radishes.
They consider the radish flavor dis
agreeable, and think them worthless
either cooked or raw. But even these
cooks occasionally call on the radish for
its brilliant color. to add bright touch
to some salad.
Whatever we may think personally of
the radish taste. we. too. must admit
that the contract of the bright red OF the
radish skin and the pure white of its
flesh is striking against the fresh green
Of lettuce, and that few other vegetables
can be depended on to give more strik-
ing decorative color. Since the days of
the Pharsohs the radish has been cher
ished for its color.
Rsdishes. when served raw, should al
ways be well scrubbed, chilled, and trim
med to some attractive shape Even,
bright small rsdishes may be served
just as they are. But most radIshes
are improved II they are made into roses
or fuschias or whatever else one may
call the radish with its skin sIashed
free and the white part crisscrossed
couple of times with a sharp knife.
Boiled radishes are, according to some
tastes, delicious.
Remove the skins with a sharp knife
before boiling. then boil until tender.
Serve either with melted butter and pep
per and salt, or with cream sauce, well
seasoned. Or serve in either fashion on
thin, buttered strips of toast.
Then radishes can be served in salads.
The radish salad of Oscar, famous chef
Of the Waldorf. is this:
Scrap four large radishes and slice very
thin. Slice also a cucumber in thin
slices. Serve with French dressing, made
Of equal parts of oil and vinegar, and
salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with
chopped capers.
This Is another radish salad: Slice rad
ishes, scrubbed clean. but with the red
skin left on, in very thin slices, and mix
with thinly sliced new spring onions
Serve on lettuce. with French dressing.
Still another salad Is made by mixing
sliced radishes with sliced. tart apple,
and French dressing.

One of our mothers who has been
spending the spring months this year
in the South has become deeply inter
ested for the first time in her life in
watching the birds and observing their
habits. She has her small son with
her, and she writes of the interest the
boy, too, takes in their bird study.
Dear Aunt Chatty." she wrote in
her last letter, 81 never knew there
was so much enjoyment to be had as
Frank and l are getting from watch
ing the birds. Many different kinds of
them are to be seen around this place.
They are stopping here temporarily, l
am told, on their way farther North
and every day my boy and I go out
with our field glass to see how many
kinds we can find. l wish you would
tell all the members of our mothers
club what a wonderful study this is
for a child and urge them to start
their children at it. 1t has made a
different boy of Frank. He used to be
so restless and full of pranks that
could scarcely control him, but now he
is perfectly happy when he is out
birding as he calls 1T, and when he
is in the house he wants to be read
ing about them. He is beginning to
take an interest in other nature

him to train him."
1 was glad to receive this letter. and
am more than glad to give it to our
Mothers Club, for 1 am sure other
mothers will find as much joy for
themselves and their children from the
study of the birds as this little woman
has. 1t carried me back to my own
childhood days and brought up many
sadly-sweet memories Of my dear
father and the lessons he used to give
US about the birds.
He was a bird lover himself and he
knew most of the birds that were to
be found in our part of the world Espe-
cially do 1 remember his interest in the
swarms of chimney swallows" as we
used to call the chimney swifts, that
circled and dipped about US as we sat
on our lawn in the long summer even
ing twilights. There was large old
fashioned brick house in our neighbor-
hood, deserted for some unknown rea-
son by its owners, uninhabited save for
caretaker's family In the rear. 1t
was a place of mystery to us children
because OF the greet shut-up rooms and
the many tall chimneys that poured
forth, instead of the cheerful smoke of
the other houses about us, only those
swarns of angular, sharp-tailed birds.
With what fascination we watched them
wheel hither and you, zigzag in
and out above the tall trees, and then,
with a surprising whirl. dart all at once
down their chimneys again and out Of
sight Soon out again they would pour
to repeat their flight and their disap-
pearance until dark settled upon us and
we went into the house to bed as the
swifts rushed chattering and tabbering
to their sooty nests for the night.

which we read up" ON the subject of

we displayed the Illustration in our bird
book to the other children that visited
US! AS We grew older. we loved all birds
for the sake OF those darting swifts,
and with our dear father at the head
OF IT, we formed a club OF the girls of
our neighborhood for the study Of the
birds that nested In that vicinity.
In after years. when my own children
were growing up. We spent several sum-
mers in cottage on one Of the East
Tennessee mountains. In the trees on
the western brow of our mountain, focks
of crows came each night to roost, and
again l sat out in the evening hours
to watch the birds The crow, we found,
is one Of the most interesting OF them
all
His intelligence has become a by
word, but as we watched those fiocks
come back, night after night, to the
same trees, marshaled by their leaders,
holding what seemed to be councils and
consultations, we constantly assured
each other that they really had almost
human intelligenceI'' Bird study was q
never-failing means Of amusing and
educating my children. too, found. and
they. too, have grown up to be lovers
Of our feathered friends and students Of
their habits.
The habit of watching the birds Is an
incentive to study. and one Of the best
means of culture that know. I wish
every mother in the world. rich and
poor, would begin the practise OF study
ing the birds with her children. II takes
only little time and IL is time better
spent for your children than so many
hours given to busting and dish-wssh-
ing for them. Go out Sunday afternoon
with them into the parks, or, better yet.
into the open fields Of the country, and
watch for the different kinds Of birds.
The best way to study them is the
simplest. Stand still and listen TO the
songs that you hear. By listening close
ly the first confusion will resolve itself
into distinct songs and calls and you
will soon begin to recognize the various
notes as you hear them again and again.
Connect the sounds with the birds that
you see- Group them roughly at FIRST.
trying to remember only the commonest
varieties Your ear will grow clearer
and your eye sharper in time, uncon-
sciously, almost, to yourself. and before
you know it you and the children will
find yourselves linked together in a
closer sympathy than you have ever be-
fore known, and you will be surprised at
the ease with which you can correct
their faults and control them, for they
will be actuated by higher motives than
they have felt before.

Inc stars incline, but do not compel"
Monday, April IT, 1910.
This should be a lucky day for most
persons who have large interests at
stake. In the early hours Venus. Mars
and the Sun rule strongly for good and
in the evening Mercury and Uranus are
friendly. Jupiter alone has sinister
aspect
1t is a most auspicious rule for pro-
moters and executives In many lines of
business.
Those who seek positions or solicit the
patronage of influential persons have
the best sort of guidance under this rule.
1t is a favorable aspect under which
to bespeak political support. Candidates
for high offices should make the most
of the helpful influences of the stars.
According to the seers danger of war
VIII be avoided through wise counsel and
the power of diplomacy at this time.
Next month, however. new complications
are foreshadowed. There is little hope Of
success for overtures toward peace.
Lovers should benefit today. The stars
presage Joy and harmony.
Venus Is In a place read as forcasting
a sensational interest In wearing apparel
Great gains for fsr-sighted importers
and designers are indicated.
Leather dealers and manufacturers
have the promise of profit. Rich and
poor are warned that the prices of shoes
and other necessary articles may reach
a startling figure.
There is also a prophesy that beads
and jewelry will have an extraordinary
vogue. This is foreseen, because of an
aspect of the stars which indicates incon-
sistencies of the most surprising sort
Canada Is counseled to prepare for a
summer of supreme test. Business will
grow and many places will prosper In
surprising circumstances.
Persons whose birthdate Il is should
be exceedingly cautious in the use of
money. Losses are prognosticated, but
business prosperity is probable.
Children born on this day are likely to
be versatile and clever. They may be too
fond of pleasure.
