lemon Juice and even pinch of sugar. By the
discreet use of these valuable aids the "fat
taste" as so often noticed in homemade soups is
overcome. But be very careful in their use, and
be sure Of your tasting power" for very
little bit of any of them goes long way. Soup
to be good, must be tasted again and again until
it is pronounced perfect
In the proper seasoning of all soups certain
staple supplies play an important part. These
may be partially listed as follows: Herbs
Celery (the leaves home dried, rubbed to
powder and kept in a covered TIM, thyme, sage
savory, sweet marjoram, bay leaves and
parsley. Spices-Whole cloves, allspice, mus
tard seed, celery seed, nutmeg, red pepper and
stick cinnamon. Tomato catsup, walnut catsup,
Worcestershire sauce, rice, barley macaron,
split beans, navy beans, etc., are all useful TO
have on hand.
Following is a roughly prepared list OF in
gradients which have appeared-or rather dis
appeared-in soups that have received high
praise 1t may prove helpful and suggestive to
the housekeeper who finds herself with similar
materials on hand:
Baked apple, bits of lemon peel, cooked oat-
meal and various cereals, scraps OF bread,
crackers and toast, mashed turnips, gravies
(both thick and thin) leftover portions OF hash
or stews, any bits Of cold meat, nam bones
sausage, bacon or salt pork, any cooked or UNI
cooked vegetables, potatoes prepared IN any
form and liquor left from cooking meat vege-
tables and poultry.
In short, with little practice almost any
thing that is clean and wholesome may be
added to the soup pot, with benefit to the family
health and the saving Of the family pocketbook.

By MARGARET HAMELIN

TIME writer of this article was once ac-
cused of making soup "by inspiration"
perhaps for the reason that her soups
are rarely twice the same and $50 the consum-
ers say) are each one better than the last
which has been pronounced the best of its kind.
Now, it is somewhat a conviction with this
party Of the first part that good soup is dish
which must be more the result of good taste
and judgment in combining ingredients than
of any closely followed recipe.
Indeed, soup is food which ought to appear
with degree of frequency on all tables (espe-
cially at this season Of the year, and it is some
thing that any housewife, whether poor or rich,
ought to be able TO make for herself, without
dependence upon cook book-which is likely
to dictate number Of ingredients that are not
on hand.
AS an example of one of these "inspiration
soups" my morning visit to the icebox discov-
cred the following odds and ends: One small
cup of stewed tomatoes, half cup of cooked
cabbage two fried sausages, some scraps Of
beefsteak with a good sized steak bone and
some outer stalks of bunch of celery. These
certainly looked unavailable for any other use,
and, as the day was cold and dreary, deter
mined that, combined, they should provide a
delicious hot soup for the evening dinner.
The sausage and celery were cut into bits and
placed with the other ingredients in the soup
kettle. To these were added two good sized
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-05-27

onions (sliced), four small potatoes (slced),
salt and pepper to taste, pinch of poultry sea-
soning and about two quarts and half of
cold water.
The kettle was then closely covered, the soup
brought to the boil and placed where it would
merely simmer for five hours-eight or ten
would not hurt it, but less time would hardly
do. A very little boiling water was added from
time to time as the original quantity cooked
away. The freless cooker could be also utilized
to advantage in making this soup.
When sufficiently cooked, the soup was put
through a rather coarse colander and some OF
the very tender vegetables were pressed
through with fork for the thickening. The
soup was then set away in cold place, so that
later on the fat that formed in a cake on top
could be removed.
The basis or body of the soup was then ready,
and might be finished and served in several
ways. Cooked rice, macaroni or noodles could
be added a small teacupful of thick tomato
catsup, making it variety Of tomato soup, or

it might be merely reheated and served with
crisp croutons or crackers.
Now, no one housekeeper is likely to have any
combination of odds and ends exactly like the
foregoing; but they will have others just as
good, or better For instance, if there had been
no tomato on hand, little chill sauce might
have been substituted after the straning and

seed or the dried and pulyerized leaves. If
there had been no meat, a tablespoon of meat
extract (added after skimming) could take its
place, or even tablespoon of butter.
This is the true secTet of the world famous
French soups secret worth its weight in gold
TO the housekeeper in\ moderate circumstances.
1t all lies in knowing how to combine the minute
bits of good material that otherwise might be
thrown away, and seasoning them so delicately
that the flavor is rather elusive than pro-
nounced.
Still another little secret" in this kind of
soup making is the discreet use of vinegar,

other canning club has been born.
Mrs Lambeer, who as Natalie Schenck did
such wonderful work during the Spanish War
with her famous endless letter chain, is again
in the front ranks to help in the present crisis.

Health Notes City Of Ely

The general health of the city is
good. There are still number of
cases of measles amongst the school
children and few amongst adults.
There are still some people who
live along sewer lines who have
not connected up with the sewer
and removed their outhouses. Ali
such people are requested to make
these connections during this year.
The Health Officials expect to look
up this matter soon and may take
any action that is legal, to enforce
these connections if they are not
made. Plenty of time and oppor-
tunity has been allowed by the
health authorities in the past for
people to get connected up and to
remove their outhouses which are
always a nuisance, therefore those
who have not done so are not
entitled to any more consideration
for not having complied with the
requirements. If they wish to
escape difficulties in the matter
they should show at once some
effort towards doing his duty.

BASE BALL
Team Organized for Active
Work--Good Prospects.

Base ball fans met Wednesday
evening at the City Hal, and
organized team by the election of
manager, secretary and treasurer
and captain. It is purposed to
put first class team in the field
and arrange games of the better
class with the range towns and
Duluth. Ely has considerable
good ball material this year and
under efficient management will
be heard from.
Joe Seraphine was elected man
ager, Will Odds secretary and
treasurer and Jack Hussey captain
of the team. A system of fnanc-
ing the team is being worked out
on a business basis and the open
ing of the season will find Ely with
a first class ball team in the field.
A good team is an advertisement
for the city that should not be
overlooked.
AS soon as the weather gets
down to business, Manager Sera-
phine informs us that active prac-
tice will begin. Pitcher Schmirler

ing the McComber mine at Arm
strong lake has announced the
construction of the spur to the
mine. Work will begin about
May 1st and be completed July 1st
when the shipments of ore from
this property will begin.
The McComber proposition is by
far the best appearing bet on the
Vermilion range at the present
time. A fine large stockp1le of
high grade ore has been accumulat-
ed in the work of opening up the
mine and developments in the
shaft promise big things for this
property. Now that the officers
of the company have signed the
contract for the road, Mutual stock
will be in demand. All the work
done has been accomplished in a
strict businesslike manner and no
jobbing tactics have marked the
work.
The usual crew of thirty men
in eight hour shifts are being work
ed twenty-four hours a day and
seven days a week. Prominent
mining men who have visited the
property are very much enthused
with the work being done and re-
suits being shown.
