GOOD HOUSEKEEPING.
By Henrietta Grancl.
A RICE PIE.

This is an American Southern dish, and
it is one of those good combinations thn.
may be made any place.
Chop up whatever cold meat you have.
If it happens to be veal, put little bacon
In with it., or bit Of ham added will inn
prove the flavor. Mutton is a good meat
to use in this dish. but trim away the bits
of fat and use little bacon dripping las
mutton fat is a bit too strongly flavored).
If you use cold pork, add small onion
minced fine. To make the ''pie," line a
glass baking dish or casserole, well
creased, with cold boiled rice; season this
lining with salt and pepper and set it to
one side while you mix the filing. Put
the pint of cold, chopped meat and one
large, diced, cold, boiled potato in frying
pan with little fat, and brown them
well. Add sweet herbs or other seasoning,
and if the meat was tough before, you
may pour in a cup of stock and let it SIM
nrer away after the meat is drowned.
Press half pint of canned tomatoes
through a sieve to remove the seeds, and
pour this over the meat and put it all into
the rice shell carefully, so the sides are
not disturbed. Put this into the oven and
bake until the rice looks brown through
the glass, but do not let it cook too dry.
Chicken and rice baked together, in this
way, is n favorite dish in the rice country.
Use potato with rice and fowl, but omit
the tomato and the onion.

that may he achieved in casserole or

the secret Of this mode OF preparation, and
dishes so cooked arc foods OF rich flavor.
1t is better to choose two small hearts
than one very large one. Calves hearts
are more tender still Cut out the ven-
tricles and trim neatly, then soak them
an hour in cold, salted water. Freshen and
drain, then fill with creamed, cold, cooked
rice. Pack the stuffipg in well, and skewcr

LITTLE IMAGE MAN.

Once in far-off country, IN temple
lived q f,lnny-looking little image.
His face was very solemn and ne helc
his head up and his mouth little way
open, asif he would scream at the slight
est noise.
Not far from him was an elephant
An image, of course-and on his back
he carried tall, towerlike affair.
The little Image Man often looked
at the Image Elephant, even though
he did not seem to be looking at any
thing, and sometimes he saw little curls
Of smoke coming out of the little WIN
dows of the tower the elephant carried: |:
But the thing that most concerned
the little Image Man was the gorgeous
trappings which the elephant wore.
Little Image Man thought there
could be nothing in the world that could
bring greater happiness than to ride
on the back of such q gorgeous crea-
ture as the elephant.
One day something happened. A
terrible noise was heard outende the
temple and then the doors were thrown
open and many queer creatures came
rushing in.
They were soldiers, foreigners, the
little Image Man learned afterward,
and when it was all over the elephant
among other things, WAS gone from
the temple
Ii was very lonely then, for little
Image Man, and he sighed as he thought
Of all the images that were gone, but

il was too late
One day the little Image Man was

for long time it was all very dark fol

One day he found himself in a place
much lighter thsn the temple had been,

was very still he lowered his mead and

There were many strange things AL

to dust the ornaments in the morning,

But little Image Man smiles TO him
