Pastry III.

The pastry described in the last ar
ticle in this column is the kind in use
for ordinary pies. A richer pastry is
often used for tarts, the upper crust
Of pies and for the famous French
pastry. This last requires master
hand with much experience-experi-
ence gained only through patient la
Dor. For the rich paste, at least part
butter should be used because the
kind of fat determines the flavor.
Some cooks use beef suet in part.
RICH PASTRY OR PUFF PASTE.
Q C. flour I. salt
c. shortening Ice water
Have all materials cold. Wash the
butter in cold water. Divide fat into
two parts, e-third and two-thirds
respectively Of whole quantity. Divide
the two-thirds part into four equal
parts and pat each into thin sheet.
Set the sheets on ice with oil paper
between.
Make a very stiff dough of the
-four, salt, one-third shortening and
ice water. Use the method described
under plain pastry. Knead the dough
one minute, then set on ice for tve
minutes. Roll the paste into an
oblong sheet one-third inch thick;
place one sheet of shortening on the
middle of the paste, fold the paste
over the shortening. Roll to one
fourth inch thickness and fold as be-
fore, but without further shortening.
The third time OF folding enclose the
second sheet of shortening and con-
tinue adding a sheet OF shortening at
every alternate folding until all the
shortening has been used, There will
be eight foldings and rollings in all.
Chill thoroughly before baking.
The baking Of pastry is very I'M
portant. The oven should be very
hot at the bottom, then second sheet
of tin should be slipped under the tin
on which the pastry is baking as soon
as the bottom is Drowned. Lower
the heat after the first.

Who Loves Music the Mosta
Oh, legal mind, list TO this SANDER!
A music lover, concert and opera
goer, dares say that you art remiss
in your attendance upon these feasts
Of sound which from time to time
delight the hearts of Omaha's people.
On the other hand, no such mali
cious charge is brought against the
physicians OF the community. Truth
10 tell they are applauded and COM
mended for their interest in art, mu-
sic and all that is esthetic.
Its not that the lawyer is OF COM
nloner clay" explained this keen OBJ
server, but it seems to me the same
sensitiveness necessary for the sue
cessful physician is the one which
attunes his spirit to the harmony OF
sound. Appreciation OF music re-
quires a different equipment than IA
miliarity with court room harangue.'
But what proof have you! Does
not the name of John Lee Webster
stand foremost as a patron OF art
and music? And how about Howard
Baldrige, Edgar Scott and F. A. Bro
gan. What can you offer as defense
OF your claim that an audience OF
music lovers contains greater per-
centage of physicians than lawyers"

would seem to be for windy days.
No need OF hatpins o. veil either

Wraps matching in color and fabric
with the dress are still quite an in
novation. A prettier fashion is
hardly conceivable, especially for the
young girl or the youthful woman,
who so many times looks over

material far too gorgeous for her
