Facts About Fish

~ EMEMBER that the secret of
n sayory boiled fish is that the
~ water in which ii is boiled be
well salted. This doesn't mean
that any sprinkling of salt is suffi-
cient. II means that as much as
an ounce of salt to a quart cf
water should be used.
When a fish is to be steamed. IL
should be placed in an earthen
dish, annd then a little vinegar
should be poured over il. II
should then be placed in the re-
frigerator for couple of hours,
well covered. Then the vinegar
should be drained off and the fish
is ready for the steaming process
of cooking.
To freshen salt fish always re-
member that you should place il
i'm the water with the skin side up,
the flesh side down. The salt then
as il soaks out of the fish sinks
10 the bottom of the dish. If the
skin side is down the salt soaks
into the fish and is caught by the
skin, and so there is as salty a
taste as ever when the fish Is
cooked. for the salt has all col
lected in the skin.
Remember that smelts spoil
more easily than most fish, and
should therefore be kept most
carefully.
When you are cooking oysters in
their shells, always place them in
pan with the rounded side down,
to hold as much juice as possible.

a mirror quite separate from the

chance for some very interesting
things. For instance. one young
woman has found a lovely old
lacquered table of black, and above

In black Chinese lacquer. The
effect is charming. Another girl
has resurrected from the attic a
tall mirror In gilt frame, which
she has hung fiat against the wall,

fastened to hangers on the picture
rail. Below this she has an old
mahogany washstand which. with
its white linen cover, makes a very
good dressing table.
Candlesticks have n distinct
place in the furnishing of dress

Yes, it is no trick to keep warm
under a big coat.
But, when il comes to augment
ing the thickness of a suit jacket
or a coat that one wears about
town, that is a different matter.
Even here, however, it is not inn
possible to achieve satisfactory re-
suits both from the point OF view
of warmth and of looks
For there are waistcoats.
Yes, waistcoats or vests work
wonders with a too thin suit. You
don't customarily remove the suit

smaEtly in place. However, If you
do wish to remove the jacket, or
the coat that may take its place,
the waistcOat is quite finished and
may be left on underneath ii. Or
it may be removed. too, without
giving an appearance of disrobing
With a suit, Of course, the smarter
thing to do would be not to remove
the jacket at all.
These waistcOats are made OF all
sorts of materials. and in many
shapes. There are some of heavy
velour or duvetyn. padded, with
high collars, and one might have
sleeves of matching material
stitched into such a waistcoat to
give added warmth under a big
coat Sometimes these duvetyn or
velour waistcoats are embroidered
with brilliant colors.
Then there are silk waistcoats
Of bright bits of brocaded or fig
ured silk. These are usually made
on mannish lines with notched col
lars, though sometimes there arc
stand-up collars that keep the
throat warm.
Smart, too, are the heavy silk
tricot vests. These are in gray or
beige, sometimes in color. They
are especially smart under the
rather lightweight suit, for there
is nothing bulky about them.

TT was once considered the acme
Of hospitality 10 ask your friends
To come To see you whenever
they could spare time and TO stay
as long as they could. This brand
of hospitality was especially pre-
Nalent in the South, and in many
ways IL was delightful. But times
change manners with them. And
however much we may cherish this
open house mode of entertaining.
the fact is that Il has gone COM

of up-to-date people.are concerned.
II YOU are blessed with anything

summer weeks or week ends, do be

An invitation that bids n friend
come any time at all is no invita-
ton at all rs the world goes now
a-days. An invitation that tells
your guests when TO come and does
not indicate how long they are in
Nitcd TO stay is an unsatisfactory
invitation. The best sort is the
invitation that tells exactiy-even
To the train tilne-if that makes
Tor greater convenience when the
guest is expected 60 come and To

te come and stay a long period OF
time, as may be the case with
those YOU know intimately, you
might quite definitely write. say
ing that you hope TO be able To
persuade them TO prolong their
stay for weeks or months. But
only make this sort of invitation
when you honestly feel that this
would bG OF mutual advantage.
There is another kind OF den-
nitness that is very desirable in

oyster cocktails are easy TO pre-
pare, and IL you have no cocktail
glasses you can make many shifts
that will answer the purpose. One
is TO place the oysters on q bed of
finely cracked ice in soup plates.
In the center of each place a small
half pepper, either green or red.
filled with cocktail sauce. You
can make this of homemade
tomato ketsup, horseradish and a
little lemon juice, with salt and
pepper. You can put the cocktail
sauce in lemon skins, halved, in
stead of in peppers.
Steamed oysters are liked better
by some persons than any other
kind. To make them, heat a COW
cred dish thoroughly. Open, wash
and drain the oysters; put them
in a shallow tin pan, and place in
a steamer. Cover and leave ii over
boiling water until the oysters are
puffed and curled-about 10 min
utes. Then put them into hot
dish. Butter, salt and pepper may
be added In the kitchen.
A good receipt for panned
oysters is this. Split thick soda
crackers-the kind sometimes
called Boston crackers are good.
Spread with butter in which lemon
juice has been mixed. Drain,
plump and ruffie the oysters in a
hot, buttered frying pan; skim out
the oysters and chop rather fine:
skim the liquid and add an equal
amount OF milk; season with but
ter. salt and paprika, and add the
oysters. DO not let Ii boil, but as
soon as the oysters are hot turn it
over the prepared crackers and
serve.
Picked oysters: Two gallons
large oysters, drain and rinse
them; put one pint oyster Juice In
one quart vinegar over fire; scald
and skim until clear: add one

There are Ways and Means That
Anyone May Adopt to Secure
This Desired Result.

~ Ne of the best ways to make a

One good way TO serve oysters
as an appetizer is to dry them and
roll each in strip of bacon.
Skewer it into place with a piece

Then broil the oysters and bacon
until the edges OF the oysters curl
and the bacon is crisp. The bacon
should be as fat as possible. For

oysters on a thin slice of hot
buttered toast, and sprinkle little
lemon juice and salt over each.

The Young
Man and His
Calling Card
There Are Some Important and
Fine Points About Its Usage
and style That Should be
Remembered

IN France it would be considered
quite III bred for a young man
- ever to leave a calling card for
the young woman upon whom he Is
actually calling, even though be
may have aY0wed his desire TO
make her his wife. Supposedly, he
is calling on mamma" and he
must not even ask to sec the
daughter until he has asked to see
her mother.
In this country, however, a man
when calling leaves a card for the
young woman whom he wishes to
see, but correctly, he also leaves
a card for her mother or for the
older woman In her household who
acts as her chapherOne. In max
ing first call on a party call" he
would also leave a card for the
father OF the young girl, or the
male head OF the household. The
rule Is, however, that q man
should not leave more than three
cards. These three cards may be
left when there are TWO young
women and a widowed mother in
the family--in which case one
might be left for each OF The
daughters. If there were a mother
and father in the family besides
the two daughters. however, only
three cards would be left.
All this applies usually only to
first calls, or first calls Of the sea-
son Usually he leaves but one
card, or, IL ne knows the persons
upon whom he is calling very well,
no card at all. II his host or
hostess answers the door he does
not present his card at all. If it
is a first call he may. il they arc
formal persons, leave the requisite
cards In the card tray in the hall
In selecting his card a man does
we'll TO follow the advice Of an
engraver in good standing. Styles
| change slightly regarding the size
Of mems cards. They are always
narrower than women's cards. At
present they may be engraved
either in script or Roman letters.
They may also have engraved, at
the lower right hand corner, the
home address. but this is not
necessary. The business address
should never be on the card. Some
men also have the name of one Of
their clubs engraved on the lower
right hand side of the card but
this Is sometimes regarded as q
mark Of affectation.
The present custom is always TO
have the Mr." on the card, though
some years ago the name appeared
thus: John Smith" Now the
name may be Mr.. John Dudley
Smith, Mr.. John D. Smith, Mr.. J.
ID. Smith or simply Mr. Smith. In
i general, the habit Of parting the
name in the middle" thus: "Mr.
! J. Dudley Smith," is discounten-
: anced. II always suggests that
: the bearer Of such a name wishes
to conceal q plain first name in
Difference to a high-sounding mid
die name.
Men should always have their
: cards about them in a neat little
card case specially for that pur-
pose. They may find them con-
venient TO exchange with chance
acquaintances or with old friends
as a reminder of their address.
They should always be used when
sending flowers, candy or other
gifts TO friends. When used n
this way they should bear no spe-
cial inscription, such as, With
congratulations from John Smith. g"
II a special message is desired
a note should be written and sent
in a sealed envelope with the gift.
