General Pershinu's War Map.

In installing General Pershing's war
map in the old National Museum build
ing in Washington, the commanders
room at the front just as it looked
when the map was in actual use, is
being reproduced as a setting. Here
will be the chairs used by the general
and his aids while they studied the
map, which changed hourly, night and
day, as reports came in and were re-
corded. The table at which the officers
looked over documents will stand as it
used to at one side, and the walls will
be covered with the identical lineoleum
that was a background for the map.
The map was brought over in pieces
now joined together, and the conven-
tional design OF the lineOleum is said
to give an odd kitchenlike domesticity
to the room in which General PerShing
watched history writing itself in a
very literal sense on the wall.

Authors Handwriting.

If readers and admirers of the pol

could see the original manuscripts
from which their works are printed
they would be given interesting side
lights on the character and personal
ity of the writer's. The handwriting of
G. K. Chesterton has been described by
an English editor as shocking" w.
w. Jacobs, comedy writer of the sea,
has all his literary work typed and
makes but few corrections on the fin

writer's whose copy is reputed to be
neat and quite acceptable to a printer
are. H. G. Wells, Rudyard Kipling,
Arnold, Bennett and Sir Arthur Co,

thing may be combined to make Il
salad, vet we would avoid the foods
that do not harmoniZe as we avoid
inviting to our tables those we know
are not cOngenial to our friends.
Carrots, potatoes, turnipS and such
vegetables are usually cooked before
using in Il salad, yet a most appetlz-
ing dish is one with fresh grated car
rOts mixed in an ordinary vegetable
salad and served with French dress
ing If our StomachS are able to dis
pose of the cellulOSe in vegetables
which is uncoOked, we need not Wor-
ry about uncOOked starch, for that is
taken care of without trouble, our
dietitians tell us.
Where a salad is to provide the
main dish, food value should be the
first consideration.
The arrangement of Il salad is, a
most important feature as well as
garniture. Who has not refused Il
good and wholesome salad because of
its unattractive appearance? The per-
lection of combination and flavor
amount to little if the salad has been
carelessly prepared.
When such firm vegetables as po-
tat0es are used in a salad the dish is
much better seasoned when marinated
for an hour or two with some simple
salad dressing which will penetrate
the food.
Green plants such as lettuce, cress
and parsley whose charm lies in its
crispness should be kept we'll chilled
and served at once after the dress
ing has been added.
The small red radish is one of the
most charming of garnishes to use,
thinly sliced or in the form of a tulip
by cutting through the skin to form
the petals.
