"Oh, 1 wouldn't do that" exclaimed
Peter. You would be Just as lonesome

Il suppose I would" sighed Big Tom.
After that he said nothing more but
wandered about restlessly and every
time there was faint rustic of leaves
he would turn eagerly in the direction

Biz Tom Becomes Lonesome.

Big Tom and Mrs. Gobbler were
thoroughly at home in the Green For
est. and it wasn't long before they felt
cutie as if they always had lived there.
For 4 while they had received a great
deal of attention from the other little
people of the Green Forest, but this
was chiefly from curiosity, and once
that was satisfied they We're left much
to themselves. especially as spring gave
way to early summer and everybody
was occupied with household cares
RetIdy FoN and Old Man Coyote had eX
haustcd all their wiles trying to catch
BjC Tom and Mrs. Gohbler mapping,
without getting SO much as Il feather
Peter Rabbit still came over to call
regularly lie and Big Tom We're the
best of friends. Peter never tired of
watching Big Tom strut. For the first
week or two Big Tom did y great deal
Of this, and it was all for the benefit
OF Mrs. GObhloT. as Peter found out.
She would appear not to notice it, but
Peter often saw her watching Big Tom
with pride and admiration shining in
her eyes. and once she contided to Peter
that Big Torn was the handsomest,
most wonderful bird that ever lived.
But she never allowed Big Tom to see
her watching. In fact, she managed to
appear so very Indifferent that he quite
outdid himself in his efforts to make
her take notice.
Then one day Peter found Big Tom
alone and looking quite disconsolate.
There was no strutttng now. In fact.
| he wandered about in such an uneasy
way that Peter began to suspect that
something was wrong.
Where is Mrs. Gobbler?" he asked.
Il don't know replied Big Tom,
nou-nfully.
"You don't mean to say that any
thing has happened to her" cried
Peter. anXiously.

All l know is that she has disap-
pcared. and l have nearly gobbled my

ARIsTOCRATIC PORK.

All meat is advancing startingly IN price

YOU should not do so. There is only rea-

methods or unpalatability, some of it is
wasted.
Therefore, the preparation of pork. fresh
or in the form of ham or bacon, ought to
be carefully looked after The cook has

these meats.
Roast pork just plain roast pork. we'll

can surpass this simple one.
! But plain boiled ham is not, perhaps. so
delicious as some of the more elaborate
I ham dishes. Baked ham. with cider sauce,
, for instance, is SO good that the little
trouble required in its preparation IS well
worth while To begin with. soak the ham
over night in cold water. In the morning
drain it and cover the lean parts with

Southern Recipes
for Use of Corn
Batter Bread.

The appeal of the food administrator
to eat less wheat bread and more corn
bread struck no terror to the hearts of
southern housewives. They have al
ways given their families corn bread in
some form at least twice A day. The
corn breads of the south. which include
that delicious concoction every south
ern child eats for his breakfast. known
as batter bread" or spoon bread"
corn pone. corn cakes, hoe cake. corn
dodgers. johunycake. etc, are almost
wholly unknown in the north. which
acknowledges no corn bread save that
made of yellow meal. In the south that
is called seconds" and is not consid-
cred good to eat.
Here is an excellent recipe for batter
bread. which has been used by a south
ern family for 1G0 years:
Two cups white water ground cornmeal.
Three
IL pints milk.
One cup cold boiled rice.
One ounce melted bntter.
One teaspoonful of salt.
Two teaspoOnfGls baking powder.
Beat the eggs very light without sep
Arating. Add them to the milk. Add
the meal, salt, butter and rice and beat
thoroughly. Add the baking powder
and mix we'll. Grease 4 deep. round
pan; pour in the mixture. Put quickly
into n hot oven and bake for thirty
minutes. Serve smoking hot.
