THE OLD MARKET BASKET

How clear to my mind are the prices
once ruling
When I was a boy and could eat all
my fill
When, famished, came from my
much-hated schooling
And sat down to dinner with Harry
and Bill.
A great plate of meat-duck or turkey
in season
Corn. turnips. asparagus, peaches
galore,
With three or four pies-there was no
earthly reason
To stop except stomachs that would
not hold more
All came from the basket, the brown
wicker basket.
The old market basket that father
cnce bore.
Eggs then cost trifle-each fresh as
daisy,
No hated cold storage was known.
by the way,
And every one then would have
thought you were crazy
To ask for nut butter" as folks do
today.
Twelve cents for pound of good pork
or of scrapple.
A little bit higher for chops at the
store,
Twas kept in the village by Marvin
and Chappie,
And no one delivered things then at
the door
They came in the basket, the brown
wicker basket,
The old market basket that father
once bore.
How oft in the present when worried
and harried
l think with sigh Of those days OF
delight.
And picture the basket that father
then carried
And brought home filled up to the
brim every night.
How fresh were its contents, as frag-
rant as honey,
The prices, all told, made laugh
able score.
How eagerly, gladly Id plunk down
my money
For three times their cost at that
time, even four,
If fresh from the basket. the brown
wicker basket,
The old market basket that father
once bore.

greatly needed.
Therefore be it resolved, That we

DAINTY DESSERTS ron AUGUST

Very often the housewife is some
what at loss just what to serve
as desert ct the summer supper.
OF course there are always the sea-
sonable fruits to fall back upon, but
occasionally she wishes to vary the
regular order of things and surprise
the family.
When the weather is warm no
housewife, be she ever so ambitious,
is anxious to spend more time in the
kitchen than is absolutely necessary.
One must eat, of course, but the light
er the last course of airly hearty
meal the better for all concerned
right at this time of the year. The
following suggestions are all delic-
ious and not at all difficult to prepare,
even on hot day. And they do offer
much in the way of variety.
Economy Ice Cream
One can of condensed milk, one and
one half pints of milk, one tablespoon
of flour. pinch of salt. one half pint
of heavy cream, one tablespoon va
nilla. Dilute the condensed milk with
the milk; take one half pint of the
mixture, add the flour, which should
be first mixed in little of the milk.

cook this mixture until it begins to

add the thickened mixture to the
whole, whip the heavy cream until
stiff and add vanilla; freeze in the u.s.

Revival of Leap Year
Articles Will Give
All a Chance

just four years ago this week we
published something about leap year
and why it comes. Then we pub
lished some articles about bachelors
and how to consume them by matcAs
ing them with the maiGens and hav-
ing them set up housekeeping. We
advised folks quite extensively on
this subject, and disseminated
much information about where there
were fine bachelors ripe enough to
pick. We had a great deal OF help
from our readers, and we had so
many assurances of appreciation,
that when this leap year started in
and somebody asked us If we would
give something lseasonable ON the
present crop of bachelors, we re-
membered that 1t has been four full
years since we taught on this SUBJ
ject and there are many young folks
interested now who were not at that
time, and we decided to teach the
subject again.
As we look over the subject we
find that the same reasons exist for
leap year as did four years ago. The
arrangement Of the planets seems to
be the same, the earth moves in its
orbit as of old, and it can neither
make complete circuit on high
gear nor on intermediate so as to
pass the mile post at exactly the
right time, so as we said before, they
put her on intermediate land allow
an extra day occasionally to get
right.
Prove 1t by the Almanac
If you will look at your calendar
for February you will see that this
extra day is listed for closing the
month and setting everything right.
At the same time that the world is
being set right, the girls are privi-
legged to set domestic matters right
by proposing to men of their choice.
And a man, so selected, is bound to
feel flattered because he is that girls
choice among all the men in the
world. 1t is written of Eve that
Eve was glad and did rejoice
To know that she was Adams
choice;
and this being true of Eve under the
of population at that time,
how much more complimented a
mere man should feel at the present
stage of density of population, to
have girl single him out and offer

childhood and had forgotten. He
would not exchange the joys Of one
baby one hour for all the alleged fun
he had in all the years from the time
he was twenty years old till he was
married. He would rather feel the
baby's arms about his neck for one
long sweet hug than to live over

of his youth as far back as he can
