The Crucial Second Cup

Ever since tea was invented the second cup
has been regarded as the acid test of the
tea makers ability. Be the first cup never so
perfect, the aroma of the second cup will in
variably suffer from the prolonged contact of
the water with the tea leaves. The result is
more fannie acid than is approved by con-

Economies in the Use of Butter

A little experimenting, done with judgment,
will often demonstrate how you can slightly
lessen the amount of some expensive ingred-
lent or substitute other shortening for part
or all Of it.
OF course, this does not mean cutting the
butter item right in two in every recipe nor
does it mean putting lard or dripping in its
place when making delicate cake This GER
tainly is not safe way TO go about it. But
why not, each time you prepare a costly
recipe, reduce the butter amount just a trife,
so that you will know how TO make the next
trial? In this way you will avoid the dis
couragement and expense of utter failures yet
be working out the problem and adapting the
dish 10 your own needs, tastes and purse
Once you have the recipe just as you like
it, adhere to it strictly and always measure
accurately.
German coffee cake, that much-prized con-
lection which is set with yeast is one Of the
recipes that can be prepared entirely with
dripping and no one will ever be able 70
detect it; provided, Of course, that the drip
ping has been clarified from fresh beef suet.
When this cake is made regularly in the semi
weekly baking, it may seem like a small matter
constantly 10 substitute the beef fat for tho
butter; but it has been demonstrated by actual
experience that this saving alone amounts ap-
proximatey to thirteen dollars yearly, which
is a sum worth considering by the provident
housewife.
With the many signs heaved over the pres
ent grocery and creamery bills, it is encour-
aging to know that the crusade against tho
use Of butter with hearty dinner is gaining
many advocates. This is point upon which
we Americans are more extravagant than
possibly any other nation. AS the usual din
ner contains in itself more fat than can DO
readily absorbed by the system, supertiuous
fat tends to disturb as well as to retard d.
gestion.
To add butter then 10 the dinner menu,
solely on account Of habit, is to suffer from in
digestion as consequence. Too heavy G. diet
is certainly bad management and poor econ
omv.
On the other hand, this does not mean to
stint the famiy-and especially the children
of plenty of good bread and a liberal al
lowance Of butter, particularly if the break
fasts and luncheons contain but little heat
producing food. Nearly all books on practi-
cal dietetics advise fat added TO the daily diet
in the proportion Of from one TO two ounces,
according to the individual and his or her
mode of living, and butter-fat is vitality neccs-
sary in the diet Of growing children.

A Convenient Four-Sided Crater

The doctrine Of multIm IN pdrUo has ex-
tended even to the kitchen crater. The newest
member of this family is four in one, but each
separate one of its four sides differs so mark
eddy from the others that they barely ac-
knowledge the relationship.
One side has single crescent-shaped open
ing with keen-cutting edge. This is meant
for slicing potatoes beets or apples-in fact,
anything that needs slcing.
The second side has a number Of these
sharp crescent-shaped openings. This is for
very coarse grating that is just on the hither
side of cutting into slices The third side is
coarse CRATER and the fourth fine one. TAX
ing it all together there is no degree of slicing,
grating or cutting that this implement will not
take care of. 1t is made Of tin, stands IN
inches high and has a handle on top to hold it
steady.

as compared with the previous year. The
balance Of profits was $769.344, which COM
pares with $6s,777 in 1916. The report
shows there was deducted $1,500,000 for

For the first time this season the Govern

Il surprise and therefore, i was perhaps
only natural that the publication should be
followed by selling wave which carried
prices materially lower.
However, after the selling had been alb
sorbed. the market gradually worked up to
a small net advance on buying by trade in
terests and covering of shorts. The advance
did not hold, however as traders generally
we're not inclined to have any commitments
over the three holidays, and when the South
sent selling orders, prices worked off again
until they were l3 to 81 points net lower at
the end.
