was famous for his fine dressings
for fowls, fish and meats, and his
advice was, always soak stale
bread in cold liquid, either milk
or water, when used for stuffing
or for puddings, as they were
much lighter. Hot liquid makes
them heavy.
Chicken Cream Soup
An old chicken for soup is much
the best. Cut it up into quart
ers, put 1t into a soup kettle with
half a pound of corned ham, and
TN onion; add four quartes OF
cold water. Bring slowly to a
gentle boil. and keep this up un-
til the liquid has diminished one
third. and the meat drops from
the bones, then add half cup of
rice. Season with salt, pepper and
a bunch of chopped parsley.
Cook slowly until the rice is
tender, then the meat should be
taken out. Now stir in two cups
of rich milk thickened with a.
little flour. The chicken could
be fried in a spoonful of butter
and gravy made, reserving some
of the white Fart Of the meat,
ichopping it and adding it to the
soup.

GOOD SALES
Sale Of Christmas Seals Has Shown
Great Increase.

In 1910 the Michigan Anti-tubercu-
losis Association sold less than a
million Christmas Seals in Michigan,
while in 1919 nearly eight million
seals were disposed of. The growth
of the seal sale during the past de-
cade has been gradual one, each
year surprising the other.
But ais the seal sale increased, the
work of the association has also in
creased so that today it is an organ
ization many times as large AS the
one that functioned in 1910. The
seal sale sets the limit to the associa-
TONS growth, since the funds from
that sale are the only ones that come
to it and out of which its expenses
must be paid.
Meanwhile the population of the
state has greatly increased, the flow
of the population has been to the city
and to industrialism with its rapid
increase of tuberculosis problems
All this has made necessary more
work in the prevention of this disease
and the seal sale for 1920 will aim to
meet these new conditions so that the
work can keep pace with the needs
of the situation.
Work has already begun on the
1920 campaign. An office force i,
busy organizing the state. The sale
will be directed from separate Of
flee so as not to interfere with the
legitimate work Of the association.

They are all specialists in the treat

without surgical operations diseases
of all internal organs, stomach, in
testines, constipation, piles liver,
Ispleen, heart, nerves, skin, rheuma-
tism, sciatica, goitre, tape-worm, leg
ulcers and all long standing, deep
seated diseases. Many years exper-

They were among the first to earn
the name.
''BLOODLESS SURGEONS"
Each staff member has at his COM
mand the knowledge and resources Of
the organization. Many people suf-
fer from diseases that can be allev-
Rated just because they cannot afford
to go to high priced specialists and
Hospitals at long distance from
their home. No community has a
sufficient number suffering from
these diseases to support special
Hospitals for their treatment and
cure. The United Doctors have solved
the problem. Their highly trained
Specialists go to each community and
will advise a proper course Of treat
ment for the sufferers and instruct
them how to take care of themselves
at home. No matter what you have
been told or the experience you had
with other physicians, consult him
on this visit. 1t costs nothing. If
your case is incurable he will give
you advice as may stay and relieve
the disease. Married ladies must
come with their husbands and minors
with their parents or guardians.
