Little Helps For The Table

A famous general once declared
that AN army fights on its stomach"

ment we women must look well to the
ways OF our household that no waste
fulness on our part lessons the sup
ply Of food which Is exported to our
own boys and our allies.
One important item Of saving is the
serving Of soup at both luncheon and
dinner. Not only does It serve to take
the first edge off the appetite, but it
is an excellent method Of using up
bone, meat trimmings and giblets.
However, the distinctive flavor of
stock bouillon or consomme should be
preserved and not impaired by the ad.
diuon of strong herbs, spices, mush-
rooms. fried onions and other meth
DDS. Superior stock is made by means
OF gravy beef, leg of veal, few car
rots, turnips, locks and celery, which
are allowed slowly to simmer In water
for some eight hours. The broth is
then strained off into a large basin
and kept in a cool place. The flavor
Of the broth may afterward be improv-
ed by the addition Of the bones Of
rabbits and fowls. The stock is boil
ed away till it has a gluey consistency,
when it obtains a bright, clear color.
The heat is then slackened and the
stoekpot filled up with water. No
flavor Is needed for this soup, but
only the addition Of a very little salt,
and, II leeks are not available, one or
two onions.

Comes q Clipping
The day before the hearing
there came in my mail clipping
from the Post-Intelligencer an
editorial which was clearly intend
ed to negative the affect of the
famous and very handsome "Hark,
Sweet Sister" editorial which we
all credit with having materially
smoothed the way for the passage
Of the memorial at Olympia.
Its tenor was that the move
ment for the removal Of the name
Rainier had slipped through tn
success because OF not having been
taken seriously and that II the
board changed the name, the
mountain would still be called
Rainier in Seattle-giving the i'm
preston that any change would
not eliminate the hyphen.
I know that Scott G.. Bone, the
editor, had been absent from Sc
attic for some weeks and felt that
he was not responsible for this ut
terance-that 1t was in the nature
of sharp practice" by somebody
taking advantage of his absence.
And happily I heard in the same
hour that he was In Washington,
at the willard. So I posted Off
there at once and was fortunate
to find him In.

He had not seen 1t, nor heard
of 1t before, but after reading, re-

vicious brick bat thrown at the
cause.

Sure, He Would.
But tell me--this editorial
says that whatever action the

Benjamine w. Oppenheim, an at
torney of Boise, has been named code
commissioner by the state supreme
court to codify the laws of the state,
as provided for in a bill passed by
the last legislature. He will COM
mence his new duties April l. He
has until July, 1918, in which to COM
plete the work.
AS code commissioner, Mr.. Open
helm will arrange in a convenient
form all of the laws of the state and
make them accessible for the use of
courts, public officials and members
of the bar.
The Legislature appropriated s14,-
900 with which to carry on the work.
That will permit the commissioner to
hire such assistants as he may deem
necessary.
The codes of the state laws in their
present form were revised and
brought up to date in 1910. There
have been four sessions of the legis-
lature since then, and a large grist
of new laws have been made at each
session, and the codes have in many
instances been amended.
