There was no particular feature In any

played within a narrow range. Exporters
bid on wheat, but bought none, as the cash
was above the futures. Cables came prac-
ticaliy unchanged. failing to reflect the de-
clines In our markets Saturday. Reports
OF heavy frosts In parts of Iowa and I'LL
nols were bulllsh factors In corn, which
sold up considerably. Hedging by cash In

DELICIOUS DISHES OF RICE
Five Suggestions for Those Who Are
Fond of the Cheap and Appe-
tizine Cereal.

To Boil Rice.-Pick over one cupful
of rice, wash in two waters, drop in
n quart of boiled sailed water, cook
slowly on back of stove. Never stir,
and when done each kernel will stand
alone. Pour into colander and set on
coolest part Of stove. 1t should be
boiled in ar open stewpan. One table
spoonful of lemon juice added to water
in which rice is boiling makes it very
white and keeps kernels separate.
Rice omeIet.-Beat one cupfuI boiled
rice and two cupfuls Of milk in a
smooth paste. Add two eggs well beat
en-, salt and pepper. Fry until brown,
cover with powdered sugar and serve
at once.
Rice Croquettes.-Put over fire in
double boiler one pint of milk and one
half cupful of washed rice. Cook till
thick, add the yoiks of two eggs, one
half t%easpoonfuI of salt and two table
spoonfuls of sugar. Remove from fire,
beat till smooth, add one-half teaspoon
full vanilla, a bay leaf boiled in rice
and milk removed as Don as a slight
flavor is given to add to daintiness of
seasoning. Spread all on a fiat dish,
and when cold form into cone shape.
Dip in egg, then in crumbs and cook in
boiling fat. This makes IL croquettes.
Rice Bread.-One tumbler rice -four,
one and one-half gills of milk, one egg,
two teaspoonfuls butter, one table
spoonful cooked hominy, the white Of
n egg beaten separately and added
last. Bake three-quarters of an hour.
Rice Cornbread.-One pint boiled
rice, one pint cornmeal, one dessert
spoonful lard, one pint sour milk, two
eggs beaten well.

FLAvoRING OF HIGH VALUE
Cook Who Is ProdigaI in the Use Of
Celery Will Find She Has
Made No Mistake.

Celery should be used as frequently
ms possible, not only because Of lbs
delicious flavor. but because it is m
of the few vegetables possessing so
many highly valuable chemical salts.
Indeed, it has been declared very
often that celery has direct curative
properties for the nervous, rheumatic
or neuralgia person. Incidentally,
there is practically no waste to celery
every bit of it can be used.
OF course, we know best the use of
the delicate inside stalks, for salads
and Filings. But the outside stalks,
even though not perfect enough in ap-
pearance for service in the raw, should
not be neglected, but stewed or used
in the making of soup. The trimmings,
too, leaves, imperfect stalks, can be
added to brOths, soups, or used to help
flavor other dishes. The addition of a
little chopped celery to any kind of
'neat or vegetable dish is sure to i'm
prove its flavor.
If celery is not used Immediately, it
should be wrapped in paper and kept
In a cool place, and it will then remain
In perfect condition for many days.
Two cupfUs of chestnuts, two cup
fuls of celery, four cupfuls of milk,
two tablespoonfuls of butter. Small
onion, carrot, salt, four cloves
Chop the celery, onion and carrot
and brown in butter, add milk and
cloves and allow to stew for about one
hour.
Blanch chestnuts and boil ten min
utes. Drain and stew for half an hour
in One-half of the celery liquor that
has been stewing. Then press through
a colander and pour into the remain
ing celery-and-milk mixture and cook
for ten minutes. Serve hot and, if de-
sired, garnish with a few whole-cOoked
chestnuts.

Deviled FiIets of Chicken,

Cut the raw meat into long, thin
strips or the thin portions of the
breast. Dip in melted butter, brOil I'M

place on a hot serving dish and spread
with the hot mixture two tablespoon
fuls of vinegar, two of Worcestershire
sauce or mushroom catsup, one table
spoonful of chutney sauce and a dash
of salt.

Sea of Pumice,

A steamship which recently made
the port of San Francisco reports hay
ing sailed in a sea of pumice, near
Sydney, N. S. w. Apparently the ma
terial had been cast up by a subma-
rine volcanic outbreak, and chunks
ranging in size from that of a marble
to a plug hat were thrown on deck by
the waves. The vessel was several
hours in passing through the affected
region.
