LOBSTER DISHES.

Lobster, to be edible, should be
perfectly fresh. One OF the tests of
freshness is to draw back the tail; if
it springs into position again it is
safe to think the fish good.
The time of boiling varieties with
the size of the lobster and in different
localities. The usual way is to plunge
them into boiling water enough to
cover and to continue boiling until
done. Much cooking toughens it and
destroys the delicate flavor.
Lobster Souffle-Two pounds lob
ster, three tablespoons mayonnaise,
one cup aspic jelly. one-half cup to-
mato sauce, one-half teaspoon tara
gon vinegar. Cut lobster in small
pieces, put bands of writing paper
about two inches high around as many
ramekin cases as you wish to serve.
Beat mayonnaise, aspic jelly and to-
mato sauce together until they begin

CLUB TO HAVE BIRD RECITAL.

The Rock Island Musical club hopes
in the near future to bring to the city
Mrs. Jessie Braman Daggett of La
Grange. Ill. for a lecture recital on
bird music Mrs Daggett has devoted
much time to the study Of bird music
and has been able to pick out motifs
in many of the great compositions that
are produced by the birds, the COM
posers perhaps having found their in
spiration in their songs. The date has
rot been fixed as Yet. but the board
hopes TO have the recital compliment
tary TO club members.
Two new members, Mrs. A. r. Wal
lin. piano. and Mrs, Swan Nyquist,
voice. were received yesterday at the
meeting held in the auditorium of the
New Harper The programs present
ed were somewhat different from those
generally given by the club, three OF
the members, Miss Notovena Steck,
piano. Mrs. Victor Frykman, violin,
and Mrs. Daniel Hayes, Jr.. voice, ar
ranging the numbers as they wished
them 10 be. It made an entertaining
program and one which seemed to
please the entire audience. each Of the
performers doing very well. In Miss
Steck the club has a member who
shows careful work and preparation
for her part on the program. She
plays with an assurance that is very
satisfying to her audience. and she is
a Young woman Of much talent. Her
work yesterday in the four numbers
given was very good, rejecting careful
study Mrs. Frykman and Mrs. Hayes
delighted with their numbers.
But the object Of the Rock Island
Musical club is study as well as en-
tertainment. and for that reason the
study OF grand opera as taken up this
year has proved most beneficial 10
those who really are music students
1t is a significant fact that many OF

asks a girl to go places he does not
ask other members of her family to go
along.
g In the first place don't give the
impression that you are anxious TO
have boy friends. Boys like girls who
appear not to care if they pay any at
tention to them or not. Dress neatly
and as attractively as you can; learn
to talk we'll and of interesting things.
You will find that some boys want to
talk about sports, others will like
dances, books, etc, and so the more
readily you adapt yourself to their in
terests the better they will like you.

doing and always try 10 enjoy yourself.

NEW METHOD OF SPRINkLING
CLOTHES.

Have a breadboard to use as a
sprinkling board. First take all the
colored clothes, straighten each piece
smooth and sprinkle, and keep on
with all, finishing with the sheets and
bath towels, folding sheets in eight
and folding all other clothes as little
as possible, so you have no folds or
wrinkles to press out when ironing,
which you have when rolling up the
clothes as most people do. The
handkerchiefs and napkins-in fact,
all of the clothes, being smooth, are
much easier to iron. If you do not
finish ironing and leave some of them,
they will dry out, but never mildew,
as they do when folded.
