the time had come when she must

White curtains.
"They are only cheesecloth," she
said to herself and the Maltese cat.
1t would never do to say this to the
family, for at once they would re-

never liked the curtains" But the
Maltese cat does not speak of phi
vate matters.
The housewife stood and looked

of butter fat that the gelatine does
cot offer at all.
Gelatine as it comes in the ordi-
nary package cannot be dissolved in
hot liquid, but must first be
soaked in cold water until it is
completely hydrated, or until 1t will
take up no more water; then dis
solve in the hot liquid which forms
the basis of the dish. Never boil
gelatine, but stir in the hot liquid
until dissolved and remove immedi-
ately from the fire. The instantane-
GUS and ready-to-use gelatines of
course save time, as they dissolve at
once in boiling water.
Observe exactly the directions
given on the box Of the brand of
gelatine you use; but for most of
the standard makes allow two
ounces Of the gelatine to very
scant two quarts Of liquid; this will
give clear quivering Jelly for plain,
orange, grape juice or lemon Jelly;
but when fruit and nuts are added
the better proportion is two ounces
to a scant one and three-quarters
quarts of the liquid.
In moulding the different varie-
ties of bouillons, when a particularly
attractive dish is desired tiny egg
balls or cubes of cooked custard (not
sweetened) may be added, and for
this form Of gelatine dainty do not
have it stiff enough to turn out, but
pile it lightly in the bouillon cups
with the aid Of large spoon.
Both the chicken and beef bouil-
Ions as well as the clear canned
soups may he used as the founda-
ton. When the former are utilized
cook the desired amount Of water
with slice of onion, two cloves. half
a bay leaf and some chopped celery
tops, then add the meat cubes, ex-
ira seasoning if desired, and strain
before adding the gelatine. This
improves the flavor.
When the dissolved gelatine is to
be added to whipped cream or
whipped mixtures, as in Bavarian
creams, parfaits, etc, it must be
cooled before it is beaten in; other

Technique Of
Using Gelatnes

Especially for children, gelatines
offer a harm concession to
the desire for a fancy ''top off" for
the meal. A portion of plain
orange gelatine (one-half cup)
would give only about SO heat units,
1--WE of these due to protein, and the
remainder to sugar, while half cup
of vanilla ice cream would have
twice as much fuel value, due al
most entirely to the large amount

cheesecloth and add d quart of clear
chicken stock (this may be made
from hot water, cooked with celery
tops and enriched with five bouil-
Ion chicken cubes). Season to taste
with salt and paprika and for each
quart of the liquid consomme add
two level tablespoonful of gelatine
softened in little cold water. Set
aside in cold place and when the
mixture begins to thicken add the

most delicious of our frozen pud-

,hese are to be given.
The delicate aspic, the natural
zelatine of the bones. made in the
home kitchen, can be practically
duplicated by the aid Of the gelatine
box and fine sense of seasoning.
The hard, rubbery connections, in
differently or feebly favored, that
100 often are offered as "gelatines'
are enough to give these useful
foods a bad name.
Gelatinous foods are easily d.
sested and readily absorbed, but
do not carry large amount of
nourishment, and this fits them
particularly for dessert purposes.
The heavy desserts of the American
table are amazing to our foreign
friends, and probably equally so to

dessert, but there are many more
charlottes that we don't know how
to make. This special sort of des-
sert is a great favorite in Europe,
especially in Sweden and Norway,
where they make the most wonderful
buildings and cakes. In Sweden the
foundation for the charlotte is a
sponge cake, which is cut in slices,
each one being covered with favored
and sweetened whipped cream. The
slices are put back into place, form
ing the loaf again, then the whole
is cover with a meringue made of
the whites Of three eggs beaten stiff
a cup of powdered sugar and a few
drops of vanilla. This is baked in
slow oven to a delicate brown and
served ice cold.

u EARS ago in the average
y home salad dressing meant
lettuce cut up, or sliced toma-
toes, with vinegar and sugar poured
and sprinklcd over.
Nowadays dressing for salad, in
more homes than we care to think
of, means a poorly made "French
dressing," or mayonnaisc from the
grocer's shelves.
Perfect salad dressings are an
epicurean del.ght--and they are
simple to make after one has the
recipes and q few don'ts and dos.

Elaborate

The Norwegian charlotte is very
much more elaborate. Two egg
whites are beaten, then to one half
is added chopped almonds and to the
other shredded cocoanut. A large
sponge cake is cut into slices half
an inch thick, which are put together
with the meringue, first the almond,
then the cocoanut. When the lay
ers are in place the centre is cut out
of the cake, leaving the bottom slice
and the sides about an inch in thick
ness. The cake that is removed is
then crumbled into a bowl, mixed
with cup of soft custard and
cup of whipped cream and favored

Morgan City May
Get Ball Park

Many local baseball fans deplore
the fact that Morgan City has no
baseball park in spite of the fact
there is good material here for base
ball team. In view of this fact, a
movement is on foot to raise funds
for the purpose of building grand
stand in the Ditch Annex, and it is
thought that the returns from the
games will furnish sufficient funds
for building a fence around the
park. The business fraternity wilt
be called upon to make contributions
toward paying for the grandstand.
and it is hoped that they will respond
generously.
A baseball team is one of the
greatest advertising mediums of q
town. It tends to attract outsiders
to the games, and affords an excel
lent diversion to, the. followers of
the sport. Mr.. Willard Ditch has
offered the boys site for the park
free of charge, and all that is needed
now is a grandstand and fence.

Patterson Eats
Up New Iberia

The Patterson Grays, reputed to
be the invincible ball players Of semi
professional circles, ate up the New
iberia team $50 to speak, in a game
at Patterson yesterday afternoon.
The iberia boys were full of pep at
the beginning of the game, but they
were lacking in base ball talent to a
marked extent, the Patterson team
rolling up a round dozen of tallies
against their none. Yes Sir, when
the last inning ended, Patterson had
II nice runs to its credit and a big

found at the end Of the Iberia COL
umn. Bert Trellue, an old timer OF
Patterson, was the ump, and it is
said that he did all he could for the
poor visitors, but at that he could
not pull them out of the hole.
Knight and Stapleton formed the
Patterson battery, while Boutte and
Congalez did the work for New
iberia. 1t is reported that New
Iberia is going to strengthen its
team considerably before playing
another game.
