Hamburg de Luxe.

Neither the tenderloin nor the sir
loin steak is as juicy or nutritious as
round steak. To have this steak at
its best the housewife should go to
market herself, unless she is very
sure of her butcher. Telephone orders
are often carelessly filled, and any
pieces of meat may get thrown into
the chopper.
Tho round is considered best for
hamburg steak, although other por-
tions may be added. Suet or little
salt pork makes a good addition to
the beef, which lacks natural fat. A
piece of suet as large as walnut is
usually allowed to each pound of
meat. though even more can be used
to advantage. The butcher does not
have the beef chopped by hand on
the butchers table instead of running
it through the meat chopper. When
preparing the steak for the table add
to each pound of meat one egg or a
slice of bread chopped fine. This
helps to hold the meat in shape. AS
for the seasoning, use a little finely
minced onion with the salt and pep
per, although this is Il matter of in
dividual taste.
After shaping the meat into thin
cakes, place 1t in broiler slightly
creased. and broil it over clear fire
the steak In a piping hot frying pan
for about the same length of time.
In this case simply wipe the bottom
of the pan with a bit of suet and dust
lightly with salt. and the meat will
not stick. The steak may be nodded

n NE of the biggest reasons for
the hodge-podge appearance
of so many homes is the
~ lack of any relation between
the articles of furniture, the fabrics
used for upholstery and drapery. the
wood trim. rugs, etc. There is no
harmony of line, form. color, texture
u" style between the things that go
I" make up the furnishings. Too
often these are matter of expedi-
ercy, or whim or just chance.
The woman with her innate love
for soft things and draperes fsels
the need for door hanging between
the living room and hal. for instance,
she decides not to put very much
money into them. and so she buys
a cheap, coarse material of poor color
and hangs it up with the feeling that
now her rooms look so cozy." AS a
matter OF fact. only another discord-
ant note has been added, and if her
other furnishings are of good quail
ity and design, more emphatically
than ever they are cheapered by the
introduction of material that is too
coarse. too evidently humble to be
in keeping with the other things
do not mean that the same lines.
the same color and texture must be
strictly adhered to throughout a
room. Nearly always a contrasting
rote is good. but there should GER
tainly be dominant theme with the
contrasts used in restraint, and these
must bear a definite relation to the
main idea. For instance, to give
I4tncr far-fetched example. a small.
delicate mahogany Sheraton chair in
= living room furnished in very plain,
rather heavy, dull finished oak, per-
haps along the mission lines so popu
lar Few years ago, would have the
effect of making the whole room look
coarse and heavy and itself foolish
and inadequate; while on the other
hand one or two brown wicker chairs
Would give the needed touch of light
ress, the color would harmonic with
the oak, and gay cretonne seat cush-
ions would give a bit of bright color
TO offset the browns of the leather
cushions on the oak chairs. This
same furniture would be inconsistent
IN colonial house, but would blend
Gbite naturally with uncovered
bea,ned ceiling and oak trim of
california bungalow.
In this same room fine lace cur
tains taffetta or silk damask over
draperies, silk velour portieres and
dS1icately colored oriental rugs would
ell be decidedly out of place. Having
started with strong. sturdy. Sc
Verely plain room the main idea must
he carried out. An English easement
csbth. a coarse net or a simple voile
OF marquisette could be used at the
windows with either a plain sunfast
rep or armure as overdraperies; or
q fine cretonne, or a beautiful. soft,
hand blocked linen. your choice de-
pending on whether you wished high
Isht or bright color in the rooms, or
preferred to keep the colors subdued
? nd mellow.
The rug could be plain domestic
iu taupe or brown, and door hangiugs
would be good either made Of the
ss,me material as that used at the
windows. or of a linen or cotton
velour.
.The small apartment living room
would be quite q different problem.

suggestions which could be carried out

the blue. A bit Of yellow grsen could

and trim. The size of the room. the
wall treatment and the light wood
work at-once call for furniture light
in scale and of very refined lines and
proportion. Don't make the mistake
of filing the entire room. apparently
if not in fact, with huge overstuffed
davenport and two big chairs to
match great enough in size for a
hotel lobby. Have a davenport or
settee, yes: an easy stuffed chair If
you like, but very carefully choose
smaller pieces. There are charming
ones. either in exact reproductions or
just as attractive modern adaptations
of the old English, French and Italian
designs. These are not always easy
to find. but there number is increas-
ing each year and the best stores
always have at least some. The cur
tains and draperies in this room
should be much finer and lighter in
weight and may be more delicate in
color. Here just the right oriental
rugs could be used to advantage if
everything else was in harmony.
Where the amount Of money to be
spent is limited. very lovely and
original effects can be obtained by
furnishins entirely with painted

Those who take the Gospel into new
surroundings must be brave in heart
and steadfast in devotion to God {;
they must turn from selfish
thoughts and expect no earthly re-

THE TORCHBEARERS
OF CIVILIZATION

Most Americans have read that
Feng Yuh Slang, chief of the Chin
ese army, as Christian. Also they
know that nearly all his officers of
high rank are of the true faith. But
many of them do not know why
His conversion directly is traced to
the supreme sacrifice of an Ameri-
can woman missionary, who was ex-
ecuted by the Boxers % years ago
because she would not renounce her
religion. To the youthful Feng and
others who beheld her trust in God
her martyrdom was like pulling
back the curtain from the past and
unfolding TO their astOunded gaze a
glimpse of the tragic scene of Cal
vary, which had, until her splendid
death, seemed myth to them.
Christianity is the companion of
Civilization; they always are tOgeth
er, Christianity always leading, civ
ilization close behind. They envelop
the earth not by the sword, as the
followers of Mohammed sought to
do but win humanity by persuasion
and sacrifice. When Christianity
languishes in a land, civilization de-
Gays.
Christianity could not go forward
without it's pioneers, and the mis-
SiOnarieS are the trail blazers, the
cnes kho bear the torch ahead into
the neglected places, even as Paul
went among the men of Athens and
as Peter pleaded among the Romans
! until they took his life. The mis-
5ionaries of Spain were in this part
of America more than a hundred
years before the seed from which
the Unied States Grew was planted
at jamestown. Livingstone did more
! toward lifting the veil from Africa
than Stanley and Rhodes put togeth-
er and he perished there.
All true Christians are mission
aries, no matter where they may be.
Whether they influence others by
the example of their noble lives to
hold frmer belief in Christ, or go
beyond continents and seas-'into
| all the world, and preach the Gospel
| toevery creature''-they are work
ing in the envirayd: and to them is
due the advance the world is max
ing. They are the tireless messeng-
ers who do not falter when peril
comes, the bearers of hope to those
who are bewildered by despair, the
teachers of the Golden Rule which
binds up the wounds of the world
and brushes evil down
The Son of God whiuld have been
sent to the earth in vain, His words
and example and crucifixion would
have been forgotten long ago-the
world would be in gloom-had mis-
sionaries not gone forth with faith
and courage to give His message to
all mankind And Christianity would
! cease to grow were they to relax
in labor.

gentle influence of the teachings of

have been thousands of years in

BOBBY'S COMMENT

Winslow husband and wife were
having heated argument over
member of a club to which the hus-
band belonged. The husband, of
course, was of the opinion hat the
member in question was not guilty
of the accusations made against him.
r The wife, bent on having the last
word, retorted sarcastically:
No, | don't suppose anyone in
that CLUB could do wrong" Three
year-old Bobby, who apparently had
been intent on the contents of a
bowl of oatmeal, stopped long enough
to get in word when there was
a lull in the argument
With downcast eyes he murmured
