VACATIONS AT HOME.

Dear Social Cornerites: If we haven't the cash to dwell at swell summer places 10 be fed and waited upon we may reduce our work and our household methods and have lots of fun at home.
 In the first place the home is re- Guced to summer conditions. To make the house easier to take care Of and cooler. clean The heavy rugs. roll them up and put them in the attic. The heavy draperieS. all bric-a -brac, and the unnecessary duSt-caJ chsrS were slowed away and the linen tabiecloths gave way to luncheon cloths some times and once in a while to paper luncheon sets.
 The whole family should in the cool morning hours help in doing the nousowork; and in clear weather the meals may be served out of doors un- der the trees n simple picnic form and occasionally 1t some nearby lake or seashore where bathing and boat ing possible.
 When the weather is unfavorable tor out of door pleasures there is the screened perch Upon which simple pie nic suppers may be served.
 Ease up your work. plan for simple open air living. and you will find there is lots of health and enjoyment to be had right at home.
 There is no place on earth more en- joyaole at night than ones own bed, in an outdoor tent or on the open air porch.
 Those who will can get more health and strength and pleasure out of life.

REASONABLE DISHES.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: Under present conditions of the market there are really no cheap foods. but only relatively reasonably priced edibles:
 These recipes will be found to be reasonable in cost:
 Good Stew from Beef Soup Bone The meat from beef soup bone may be made into a good stew with a the meat should be cooked with a generous supply of highly favored vegetables, such as carrots, celery and onions. Make a rich brown sauce. all lowing two level tablespoons each of fat and flour to a cup of stock. Brown the four in the fat and add the stock. Cut the meat into small pieces and reheat in the sauce.
 Securing Variety Through Flavor ings-In seeking to avoid monotony it is well to remember that three dis tinct favOrs may be secured from meat and sthe flour, used in cooking it or making gravy for it. The first is obtained by cooking the meat with out browning either it or other four; the second by browning the meat but not the flour. and the third by brown ing the flour Round steak that is to be steweG and poured over baking e6eap ds esepsd should not be For a stew made with vegetables, part at least of the meat should be browned before the water is poured over it.
 Swiss SteW-Into thick piece of round steak pound as much flour as possible. It should be possible to get betw zen one-fourth and one-half cup of four into one and one-half pounds of steak. Brown the houred steak carefully on both sides in butter or dripp:ngs. Cover with boiling water and cook at a low temperature until meat is tender. Ii gravy is not thick enough when meat, is done. add d lit- tie flour mixed with cold water
 Savory SteW-Cut one and one-half pounds or round steak into pieces about an inch and half square and brown thoroughly on both sides by cooking in fat Add eone pint of wa ter, one sliced onion. one tablespoon

DELIAH DEALS RHUsARs JELLY

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner. It IS a long time since I have written you and have not been able to meet
 with you sinde the June meeting that dreadful hot day. the hottest of the summer.
 1 notice Tidy AddIey sent her recipe for rheubarb conserve, and as it is different from mine thought I would tell you. how I make it.: Rhubxrb Conserve Three bounds rhubarb; after it is peeled: one pine apple, peeled; one pound seeded rais- ins Put all these through the meat cutter or chop. Three pounds su- gar. Put all together. and let stand over night. then cook slowly until thick and jeIlied- Add ne-quarter pound broken meat nuts: last pour in to tumblers and cover with wax. This makes one dozen tumblers
 Several times lately I have heard different people speak of Mother Ship tons Prophecy. saying they had heard of 1t. and would like to read it. As I found it few days ago in looking someone at least of the Sisters might like to have it, so am sending it for reprint:
 The lines Known as Mother Ship tons Prophecy" were first published in England in 14S5 before the discov- cry of America, and of course, before any Of the discoveries and inventions mentioned therein. All the events pred1cte0 nave come to pass except the last-the end of the world We re- print 1t, by request
 Carriages without horse shall go. And accidents fill the world with woe, Around the world thoughts shall fly In the twinkling of an eye. Waters shall yet more wonders do Now strange. yet shall be true The world upside down shall be A nH he iy1r of Through hills man shall ride And no horse nor ass be at his side. Under water man shall walk, Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk. In the air men shall be seen In white. in black. in green. Iron in the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat Gold shall be found mid stone In a land that's now unknown. Fire and water shall wonders do shall at last admit few And this world to an end shall come l In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.
 I also have the history of the china 1 known as the willow pattern. and so ! many people at this age have a craze 1 for antiques. I don't know but they l may like to get that too. Someone l who has pieces of that particular pat 1 tern and would like the history or tory to keep with the dish or dishes |
 I hope it will be pleasant Aug. 2I. | and that I as well as numerous others ,f the class may be able to be at Ol 1 sa's that day..
 I was so disappointed not to go to Nellie Bly's. Like Olga was all ready, unch and all.
 How hard these strikers make it or everyone. I hope before long the world will get adjusted again and ,eace will actually reign.
 With kindest of wishes for you all.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: Since my last letter I have had quite an ex- perience in moving, and it was such a very hot tiIne-the very first of July; perhaps some of the Sisters remember it. but I am all settled now and am feeling some better.
 I thank Twice Twenty for my well come to The Corner but do not want her to think I copied my recipe for Ginger Snaps from The Corner. as 1 have had it a good many years-even before The Corner was started.
 l have not seen a letter from Just Me since I began to write. and I think am some acquainted, as we are sis ters in more than one sense of the word Was sorry the Club No. picnic had to be postponed on account of trolley: strike, but hope we can meet later. as.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: I was glad to learn from The Corner last who writes letters and throws them away thinking them too poor to send.
 Really. I have very little of interest to write about. Owing to distaffce and plan to attend the Social Corner pie nfc. had hoped to this simmer and find myself at present very much like a small boy I once knew whose sister, a few years older. said of him: Jim : mic never goes nowhere nor sees noth ing"
 The longest trip have taken of late was to the huck1eberry pasture, thanks to Last Rose Of Summer, iwho invited me to spend a. day with her and go berrying. Not only did we keep our fingers busy. but our tongues. also.
 I am sure we all admire the perse- verance Of our new Sister. Mime, who came in on the <fnstalln1ent plan. She has a good hobby and hope she will stick to 1t until the wheels turn again. and I can see her sfniffng face.
 I have received letters and cards from a number of Sisters lately. all of which were appreciated. I miss many of the old writers. and sincerely wish we might once more Eee- letters in The Corner from Etta Barber.a Saturday Eve, Lonesome Pine. Keziah Doelittle. and others.

 Back in Eden. it is said And as fast as countries peopled The contagion to them spread: And today there is no region Found beneath the shining sun. Where maiden is not courted, And a maiden it's not won Cupid has a long engagement With the hearts of human kind.

they had deliberately refused and were losing the chance of getting. they were doing that same foolish thing.
 spoke to one conductor that knew and asked him if he did not wish he was working at his job. He said: NO! They had been just slaves of their employers I thought at once you were not obliged to stay. you could have given your notice and sought an
 other job and let someone else do your
 work. They are really slaves now to
 the union. Those leaders do not care
 how long the men are idle Hs long as they themselves are getting their -sal- ary, whether the men work or not.
 cannot understand why the people
 will ride on the jitneys that the union men provide. as that Is working right against their own end-tae trolley company's interest. If the trolleys
 were trying to run on this line the help the trolley company but to help themselves, as the trolleys are so much to be preferred to the jitneys. If the trolieys would only run and charge pay, to pay reasonabIe wages to the men, I think the people would stand for it.
 If the striking men would be sensi- sides of the question and go back to work, it would be such a blessing.
 The Central Village line is very much needed to. let people get to and Et and the people would be willing to pay a larger carfare than in the past as it costs them far more to go in the buses and they are not as comfortable l and we'll cared for as riding in the !! regular cars.
 The Central Village line when run [ ming hourly cars was an ideal line and ! was much appreciated by the patrons. !. The men in charge of the cars were l so gentlemanly and careful for the comfort of the passengers hat a 1 strong feeling of regret is felt that ! they, like poor Dog Tray, have got into bad company. and are not only losing | their wages but are causing the pa venience and loss. We had given them | credit of being governed by American l principles with g. due regard for the rights of others; but when people de- i liberately place themselves under the | control of men who try to dictate to I this free people just what they must | do. just where they must must not l ride. or who they must not feed. or | they are giving themselves the appearance of lacking true Amerf- can principles. and not having proper regard for the rights of others who are as capa ble of managing their own af- 1. fairs as those who are pledged to obey their, leaders whether they are right or wrong.
 We hope the time will soon come when the unions will realize that other people have rights as we'll they, and n this free country in which they tl nave been given so many privileges F. md advantages.
