The Herald and News prints in this
issue some personal and other local
matter on some of the pages other
than page s. This matter was held
over from the last paper because we
could not get it in type. But then We
try to make every page of the paper
of vital interest to all OF our readers.
We make it rule not to make ex-
cuses, but for the last week We have
been doing just as we could and with
very little system or order or even
with the knowledge of what we would
try to do next. And We have not yet
made any permanent arrangements
for linotype operator. Last week we
had Mr.. ]. T. Burrows for a day and
half and James Aull for about the
same time and this week we had Miss
Taylor for a few hours, and Mrs.
Harman, who learned the machine in
our Office, is now handling the board
for a day or two, but she has a per-
manent position with the State as
had the others we mentioned either
with the State or some where else.
We hope to get an operator soon, but
when we do we want good one. You
can't go out and pick them up just
like you can a person to measure
calico We mention this now to ask
our friends who have been kind
enough to give us business to bear
with US just a little longer.

Appetizing LeftOyers

With little attention to details
one may make very dainty and ele-
giant dishes from bits of leftover
food. A tablespoonful of ham for
example may be finely chopped and
added to a thick white sauce and US
ed to cover cold broiled lamb chops.
Then when firm and cold they may be
egged and Dreaded and fried in deep
fat All these materials may be left
over, yet this is a famous dish in a
very select club in London.
Mutton Creole Style.-Melt three
tablespoonfuls of butter in saucepan
and saute in this a tablespoonful each
of green pepper and onion chopped
fine; add three tablespoonfuls of
flour and half teaspoonful of salt;
cook until foamy, then add a cupful
of brown stock and half cupful of
strained tomato. Cook three minutes,
then set over hot water and add a
cupful of sliced cold roast mutton,
cut into strips, and half cupful of
cold cooked macaroni.
Fillets of Chicken.-This is dain-
ty dish for an invalid or is plenty in
amount for a small family. Remove
the fillets from a plump and tender
chicken and separate from the bone
and skin. Detach the small fillets
and cut the larger ones into two
lengthwise strips the size of the
smaller fillets. Heat a frying pan
very hot, butter slightly and lay in
the fillets, sprinkle with the juice of a
lemon, salt and pepper; add a third
of cupful of chicken stock and ia
blespoonful of orange juice; cover
cook ten minutes. Prepare a sauce,
using butter and flour, two table
spoonfuls of each and a cupful of
chicken stock in which a bit of ham
has added flavor; add a tablespoonful
of mushroom catsup and table
spoonful of orange juice. This dish
might not be called leftover, strict
ly speaking, yet the fillets could be
saved from some other chicken dish
without anv loss.
Leftover ice cream may be re-
frozen and served with different
sauce or add crushed fruit, or fruit
Juice to the cream or chocolate
sauce, making any number of ways of
varying the frozen dish.

A Yagary of the Law

Though strictly neutral, we offer
the anti-suffragists an argument or
an illustration.
1t may be recalled that at times
we have referred to pecularities in
the law. As a product of the finite
mind it cannot be perfect of course.
We realize this and we do the best
we can to point out to lawmakers
opportunities for approaching more
closely that desirable condition.
A woman in our neighborhood, af-
ter indulging in conduct that made
her husband take his wife somewhat
severely to task, suddenly disappeared,
taking with her the 5000 that rep
resented the husbands savings. She
left him with three children on his
hands, deserted them in a word. The
husband sought the law. He knew
that when a man deserted his family
that man was brought back and pun
ished or made TO return to his duty.
The unfortunate husband found
that the law makes no provision for
returning a deserving wife. A WON.
an ran away from obligations that
she assumed of her own free will. The
law says, by omission, that she has a
perfect right to do it.
And still some women say that
women have no rights.

Fish Salads


AS there is large variety to
choose from among so many fish, one
is sure to find many delicacies of
flavor and not necessarily at all ex-
pensive salads.
Halibut Salad.-Steam a thick slice
of halibut until the flesh separates
easily from the bones. Remove the
skin and the bones without breaking
the fish. Marinate while it is still
hot with three tablespoonful of oil,
one tablespoonful Of vinegar and salt
and pepper. When cold put the fish
on the serving dish on a bed of let
tuce, garnish the top with spoonfuls
of mayonnaise and fans cut from
small pickles with slices of stuffed
olives. Any fish of good flavor may
be treated in this manner.
Salad of Salt Mackerel.-Freshen
the fish before cooking; then use equal
parts of the faxed fish with cooked
potatoes. If the potatoes are prepar-
ed expressly for this purpose, cut
them in cubes and cook in well sea-
soned beef stock; drain and add when
cold to the fish. Season with French
dressing. Arrange on bed of let
tuce and sift egg yolk over the whole.

Today's Poem
THE AFTER-ALL.READING

THE AFTER-ALL-READING
AS the years speed away in life's
strenuous play
With their vision i'm perspective
more wide,
I'm beginning to find that they've
really been kind.
And where fortune and misfortune
divide.
As the years followed youth it SEEM
ed real as the truth
The environment, stern in decree;
The divide was so clear, but ever
seemed near
The beyond, with its castle to be.
And the years as they came waged
their strenuous game,
But the cleavage seemed ever in
view;
While their plans came to naught and
with wreckage were fraught,
Hope was tagging its battles anew.
But as the day wanes with its losses
and gains
And failures as ambition had plan
ned,
Fair fortune / see has been coming to
me
From the wreckage that lies on the
strand.
And as shadows grow long they're in
diting a song,
For I'm learning that life's but a
test,
And to see divide where it truly is
tried
For the notwithstanding. that's
best

able for canning purposes and APP
proximately of the density required
may be made as follows:
The formula much used in the West
for strip is 3 quarts to 2 quarts of
water, boiled to a thin, medium-thin
medium thick, or thick strip.
Thin strip is sugar and water boil
ed sufficiently to dissolve all sugar,
but is not sticky. Thin sirups are
used for all sweet fruits that are not
too delicate in texture and color, such
as cherries, peaches, apples, etc.
Medium-thin strip is that which
has begun to thicken and becomes
sticky when cooled on the finger tip
or spoon. Medium thin sirups are
used in the canning of the medium
sweet fruits, such as blackberries
currants, dewberries, huckleberries,
raspberries, etc.
Medium-t thick strip is that which
has thickened enough to roll or pile
over the edge of a spoon when you
try to pour it out. Medium-thick
sirups are used in the canning of all
sour fruits, such as gooseberries,
apricots, sour apples, ETC., and delic-
ately colored fruits, such as strawber-
ries and red raspberries.
Thick strip is that which has be-
come so thick that it is difficult to
pour out of a spoon or container (not
sugared). The thick strip is used in
preserving and in making all kinds of
sun preserves
