Kitchen Economics
FISH TO CUT HIGH COST OF LIV-
ING

A prominent author once told a
story about feeding a crowd a sub
stantial meal at a cost of 11-2 cents
per meal Even in that far-off era
of comparative economy-say about
10 or 10 years ago-this was con
sidered quite a feat The explana-
ton is simple-fish
The substantial meals consisted Of
fsh NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of fish
combined with potatoes and other
cheap vegetables. Heads Of mack
erel. and those parts Of halibut that
are left after the choicest steaks are
cut were purchased in large guam
titles There is plenty of highly
nutritive food in these parts Of fish.
and. of course. they were purchased
very cheaply indeed.
It isn't necessary To go TO such
lengths TO obtain cheap food. but
there is no doubt that the house
wife who is intent on cutting costs
without cutting down on the nutri-
ment of the food she serves will find
an excellent ally in the yield Of the
streams.
Fresh fish can be secured almost
everywhere. hut even the capned
fish Of the choicest variety. and. Of
course. the many kinds of dried fish,
are far cheaper than meat, consider
ing the comparative food value OF
each and the considerably less waste
in fish. You pay a good price for
the bone and gristle and trimmings
that are weighed with the meat and
sold at the same price as the edible
portion. But the small amount of
bone in fish weighs so little prac-
tically the entire weight you pay
for is edible.
Fish, too. can be prepared in the
shape of one-piece complete dinners.

March wind is no respecter of
persons. Ruth Devereaux was TWEEN
ty-eight and still pretty when she hur-
rled down the main street of her home
town on a clustering March day. Her
cape flew back and disclosed its bril-
liant lining. Her small arched feet
were neatly Shod in brown oxfords.
Brown wooden hose covered slender
ankles and shapely-but the liberties
taken by the miniature cyclone were
no fault of Ruth's.
One hand grabbed tightly the
straightforward sailor and the other
carried bulky parcel.
A tall man stood in the doorway of
the street car waiting room, but Ruth
didn't see him as, head down, draperies
flying, she made for that haven. Pro
p@led by harder gust than usual, like
ship with cal sails set riding before
the gale, she arrived full against his
stalwart bulk
The tall man braced for the en-
counter. He grasped the scurrying
figure with one hand and with the
other opened the door. Ruth, looking
up from under the briln of her digni-
fed sailor, now rakishly askew, and
through struggling brown curls,
gasped:
why, good afternoon, Mr.. Ogden.
Thanks for the rescue. That minia-
ture Flatiron building across the
street may be the pride of the town,
but 1t certainly connives with the wind
TO bring low the pride of mortals."

replied. There comes our car now"

Of Portuguese East Africa have surely
a claim to making something like
record for odd adornment, If the story
of a British noncommissioned officer
just returned from that country is to
be believed. He says: During the
trek into the interior, distance of
over $50 miles was covered, and 1t
was necessary to replace our stocks of
food at each native encampment we
reached. The native folk always pro-
tested volubly that the fleeing enemy
had taken all they had, but we soon
learned that the best medium for get
ting what we wanted was an empty tin
or Bovril bottle, carefully polished be-
forehand. The production Of these ar

Boy, page Christopher Columbus the
Second! There is still nearly one-third
|. of Canada that is still undiscovered,
and if Indian reports are to be be-
lieved, there is in the basin Of the Mac
kenzie river one of the largest areas
of possible oil-bearing country and oil
fields, since the recent enormous de-
velopments in the use of oil fuel, are
as great national asset as rich gold
deposits.
Indians also report the existence Of
lakes hundred miles long in the
Yukon that no white man has ever
seen, while even the Indians appar-
emily know nothing of the undiscov-
cred Mackenzie mountains, about
which the chief information obtainable
at present is that they exist
Here is a chance for some adventur-
ons spirit whose ardor for new and
strange experiences is not dampened
by too much participation in the late
war. to win fame and riches by
discovering unexplored Canada and
opening up vast new area with I'M
practicable resources to the service of
civilization.
