vegetable. There is not enough cheese put into this sauce to detect it, but the sauce has flavor that tones up any vegetable.
 The Italians serve grated cheese with a delicious vegetable soup, each person putting in much or little. AS this takes a lot of cheese the American cook, using scraps of cheese can give her cream soups a deelightful tang by stirring 2 table spoons of cheese into . quart of soup just before serving.
 Sprinkle grated cheese over an apple pie just when it comes out of the oven. The cheese won't melt and then "cake' over the crust, but just soften and stick.
 A very little grated cheese added to any sandwich filling makes it possible to use the minimum amount of butter on the bread.
 And any vegetable that is served plain with butter and salt and pepper can be made more appetizing if grated cheese is sprink1ed over the dish just before sending to the table. (Copyright, 1921, NEA Service)

BAD MONEY FOR BAD WHISKY.

The secret service Of the United States is having
some grief in tracing down counterfeit money and in
investigating a number of the cases it has come to
light that the bad bills were paid in the first instance
for bootleg liquor. The persons engaged in traffck-
ing in the Illicit liquor, of course was too wise to make
the complaint personally, but had it done through
friends after the bad bills had passed through sew
eral hands in legitimate transactions
The discovery, however, was made in going far
enough back that the counterfeits were paid originally
for liquor, the other fellow had no legal right to sell.
It has created a situation in which the passing of
counterfeit bills has been attempted with the nknowl.
edge that those who are victims hardly would dare to
reveal the fact for fear of prosecution under the pro
hibition laws. 1911
1t is said that counterfeiters have managed in this
rious denominations. They sell the bills to bootleg
gers, who pass them along to liquor dealers.
