EESS vegetable cookery do
not crave meat, because
their vegetables are delicately favored
and deliciously seasoned. The aver
age cook cooks the life all out of the
vegetable in the water and then throws
that away, retaining the mere waste
for food.
Mustard Greens.-Wash the mustard
leaves and put them on to cook with
no water, adding as little as possible,
to keep from scorching. If the green's
are cut in shreds before being put>on
to cook they will cook quicker. Sprin-
kle with salt, pepper and cornmeai. U.s.
ing a tablespoonful of the latter; let
cook until tender and the meal Is thor
oughly done.
Eggplant With Tomatoes.-Peel and
cut eggplant into inch cubes. Melt q,
tablespoonful of butter in q saucepan
and put in the eggplant, one cupful Of
tomatoes and one small onion, chopped
very fine. Season with salt and pep
per, cayenne and ground cloves, nut
meg, ginger, mustard and cinnamon.
Cook until the eggplant is thoroughly
soft.
Vegetable saIad.-Mix equal parts
of shredded cabbage and celery, =
good sized apple and q tablespoonful
Of onion, all cut fine, with good
salad dressing. Serve we'll chilled ON
lettuce leaves.
Cabbage and OnIons.-Shred cab
bage and put into kettle with q ia
blespoonful of oil or butter, add q
chopped onion, cayenne pepper and
salt and cover closely to cook in its
own steam. The onion may be fried
in butter before adding, which makes
difference in the flavor of the dish.
Sauted Radishes.-Use the large,
white ones, cut in small pieces and add
butter or oil and cook them in their
own steam, adding more water If need
ed. but leaving none when they are
ready to serve. Season with salt, mus

CHANGES In JAPAN.

Jean Price in World Outlook: But
by the time the children of the present
generation in Japan have become
grandmothers they are going to be
treated differently. for the girls of to-
day are receiving new respect at the
hands of young Japan. The emperor
has no concubines and married his one
wife in our European custom. In
great state affairs she receives with
her husband and he treats her as an
equal. The effect of this on the peo-
pie cannot be measured.
In the new civil code of Japan the
word "conCubine" does not appear.
And, best Of all, this code allows men
at 80 and women at rs to marry with
out parental consent, thereby destroy
ing the old parental despotism which
has blighted the lives Of so many girls
and boys.
