GO VERY many persons turn up their
~ noses at the very mention Of garlic
We admit that II has q powerful odor,
IL is only unpleasant when used in n
careless manner, or in great quantities
by the Latin race. which seems to
flourish upon II.
The F"cnch. Italian. Spanish and
creoies al feel that food prepared with
out this tlavoring would be insipid and
fiat tasting. This is quite true, and
one does not need to dine among these
folks to find this fact out. Most stews,
goulashes and braises lack the savory
goodness that ono finds in these dishes
when dining in the finer restaurants
and hotels; this is entirely due to the
lack Of seasoning.
How 10 Prepare Garlic
The clumn Of garlic looks somewhat
Ike the bulbs OF various plants It
has a thin white skin covering, which
holds the many little Glove shaped sec
tious that form the bulb. Remove this
skin and separate the cloves Remove
the skin from each Glove and drop each
one in pint fruit jar. To two bulbs
Of the garlic add one and one half
cups of boiling white wine vinegar
Cover and set in a sunny spot for two
days. Both the garlic and vinegar can
be used. This method removes the
harsh acrid essential oil and makes the
garlic tender. and rs sweet as chest
nut.
When hroiling Il steak or chops. take
q tablespoon of the garlic vinegar
which has been prepared and two table
spoons of salad oil and tiny bit Of
garlic minced fine; rub the meat on
both sides with this mixture and let IL
stand for fifteen minutes. Now hroil in
the usual manner. This will give the
meat a delicious flavor. Chops may
be prepared in the same manner.
When roasting lamb, veal, beef or
pork, remove Glove Of garlic from
the vinegar and with a sharp knife, cut
il into thin, matchlikc pieces. Now
make a hole in the meat by inserting a
wooden skewer and turning it around {;
remove and insert the little silver of
garlic. Prepare the meat in the usual
manner and then roast.
The italian cook sticks these tiny
slivers of garlic into the legs. thighs
and breast Of chicken, goose and turkey,
and it gives to the meat Il most delicious
and delicate flavor. For soups and
steWS ana goulaSheS, pot roast ana
braises Il few tablespoons Of garlic
vinegar is a really important item.
Garlic vinegar gives the sauce and
salad dressing that indescribable deli
cate and subtle favoring that every
housewife has tried SO hard to obtain.
Use little garlic vinegar when blend
ing the dressing and you will know you
have found the true secret.
Those who have a horror OF garlic
and yet who never tasted it, should try
these methods; they will soon come to
realize that the garlic is not only q

| ing" l agree with her about these jazz
| lizards, left home at the age Of four
teen on account of undesirable condi-
tions and since that I have always had
a stronger passion for work and study
than anything else.
Dancing to me is all right for those
who make their living at It, but have
found that the most ordinary boy or girl
can dance. and not much of anything
else, so naturally their progress Is very
limited. l never cared to learn Il, as l
have seen some Of the results
Soon after the war three of us started
in business, and the employing end was
left TO me to build up n good organiza =
tion, all applicants were thoroughly in
vestigated as to their habits, the COM
pany they kept and how they used their
spare time.
Since the plant has been producing I
built up good trade all over the United
states but have just lately turned over
TO three fine young men in territories.
Now l am twenty-five, never took
more than three drinks in spite OF all
coaxing, and was never misled by at
tractive women.
The business is on a solid foundation
now, so I'm going to settle down at

stiffen it a little would be to place i
under a well-starched dolly which il
