ANYWAY, PROPELLER IS GONE

Bitten, or Blown OF, But II

What happened to the starboard
propeller Of the United Fruit liner Gal
amares, recently arrived at New York
from Central American ports and Ha-
vana, puzzled her skipper. officers and
passengers, who discussed the mystery
since the ship threw At on the after
noon of Wednesday, January 10. IN
the placid Caribbean and started wab-
bling, heaving, pitching, tossing, rolling
and doing other things that no healthy
ship does all at the same time.
@ pit. Harry Spencer stopped the
liner and the chief engineer examined
the starboard propeller. He found
that one Of the blades had been torn,
bitten or blown of. Some surmised
that sea serpent might have nibbled
at the propeller and others said out
right there was no doubt steel-eat-
ing Caribbean shark had bitten of the
blade.
Captain Spencer derided these the
oriee declaring the blade had been
blown of by the force Of subaque-
GUS earthquake, as the Calamares be-
gan rocking violently a moment after
the mysterious force was first felt.
And there the matter rests.

A Can of Tomato Soup.

The housewife, who in the fall, cooked
her tomatoes, carefully strained them,
and canned them as tomato soup has q
reservoir upon which to draw to give
variety to the home table throughout
the winter and the spring months. The
advantage of using the strained soup In
stead of the ordinary canned tomatoes
In cooking Is that when time for prepar-
Ing the dish comes, no delay Ia required
for straining the vegetable, and the In
gradients are quickly combined.
Occasionally when serving Hamburg
Steak try making Tomato Sauce. Heat
one pint can Of tomato soup, and thicken
with one. fourth q cup of -four beaten

covered with can of the soup and q
sliced onion, seasoned with salt and pop
per and cooked slowly In the oven for
three hours.

change will please the family.
Some day instead of meat dish, serve
MacsrOni au Italian. Break one-fourth
q pound of macaroni into dish OF boil

butter and Q small sliced onion. Cook
slowly for one hour. The water should
boil down to q creamy liquid. Add q
cup Of grated cheese, pint can OF toma-
to soup, place in baking dish and
sprinkle with buttered crumbs. Bake
for ten minutes In hot oven.
A delicious supper dish is Venetian
Eggs. Heat q can of soup to the boiling
point, add one pound of grated cheese
and pinch of soda and stir until the
cheese is thoroughly melted. Add one
cup of milk to beaten egg, and COM
bine the egg-mixture with the cheese
and tomato, stirring very rapidly. Sea.

THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL
BY T.T.MAXEY


THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL
THOSE who have visited foreign
i lands say that no other similar
structure compares favorably, In either

simple and admirably-situated monu-
ment erected by the people of Amer
lea, in the capital Of the nation, as
fitting tribute to the memory Of the
kindness and the greatness Of our
Lincoln.
Near the White House and the
Washington Monument, and between
the Capitol building and the National
cemetery, this memorial is destined
to become one of the most-visited of
all the public buildings Of the world.
The building is POP feet long, 1872
feet wide and surrounded by a row
Of marble columns, several feet in d.
ameter at the base and a feet high.
In the center of the interior is a
colossal statue of Lincoln, in a seated
position. Including the base, 1t is 30
feet high. 1t weighs 175 tons. 1t took
twenty marble cutters eighteen
months to carve this statue.
In each of the side walls are set
monumental bronze tablets-one o:
Lincoln's famous Gettysburg address,
the other Of his masterful second in
augural address, while between these
and the statue is row of SO columns,
representing the states which existed
when Lincoln died; on the walls above
are 48 memorial wreaths. supported by

Beaten Biscuit.

Beaten biscuit are typical Southern
| dish, but one that IL we'll enough known
would be as popular In Massachusetts as
in Mississippi. They are 80 light and so
easily digested that they are prescribed
for invalids, and 80 deleotable they would
be eaten, II they could not be digested.
Once upon time every Southern fam
lily had its biscuit block, small table
Of bard oak with a hinged cover like Q
box top to protect the board and tbf
iron rod with which the biscuit vert
beaten when not in use. Now the work
is done with special machine. Some
times q marble slab or ordinary bread
board is used and the biscuit beaten
with rolling pin or flatirnp.
The ingredients are simple-hour, salt,
shortening, and liquid with which to
mix them.
Recipes differ slightly in details. One
cook uses ice water; another, cold sweet
milk; another, cracked ice and cream.
One will use only butter, while another
prefers home made lard. Some recipes
iirect that the biscuit may be beateL
twenty minutes. Others call for 30 many
/ icks.
All agree, however, that the materials
must be thoroughly chilled, that the
work must be done rapidly and that the
dough must be beaten till 1t 10 full OF
little blisters. So important is 1t thai
tbe dough be very cold that many cooks
place 1t on ice for some time before beat
ing. Success also depends on maintain.
