About Mayonnaise.

The housewife who plans her
luncheon and dinner salads carefully
usually serves the heartier salad for
luncheon and is apt to choose a
mayonnaise dressing, leaving the SIM
pie French dressing and plain lettuce
to accompany the more substantial
evening meal.
While she is stirring carefully so
as to insure the creamy consistency
of good mayonnaise dressing, or as
she purchases one of the standard
brands of this popular salad dress
ing, one wonders if she realizes that
it has a good bit of history and ro-
nance behind it.
AS a matter of fact, mayonnaise
has been known for hundreds of
years Students even disagree about
the spelling and the meaning Of the
word. One authority is of the opin-
ion that the word comes from an old
Provencal word. 'mahonnaise," which
means to mix salad. Logically to
that we should spell the word
suffix ''aise," this was added because
Of the fact that in early times the
salad dressing was mixed by the
youngest and prettiest of the women.
1t is easy to fancy these ladies Of
high degree in their picturesque cos
tunes beating and stirring while gal
lants in doublet and hose sat by mur-
muring phrases of admiration.
Still another story is to the effect
that mayonnaise dressing was origi-
nally made in Bayonne, France. Ger
tain old French cook books give the
word as "Bayonnaise." Students of
Bayonne's still celebrated salad oil is
proof of the truth of this legend
Then, again, one day in France, we
read, the Due de Mayenne was giving

despair because the cream had turned
sour. This cream was to have been
used for a salad dressing. In this
| desperate emergency the chef used
olive oil instead of cream. Then, so
the story goes. the lords and ladies
enjoyed the new sauce so much that
the chef was felicitated on his artistic
ability. If we accept this story we
shall shall t think of the sauce as "mayen-
whichever tale we accept, however.
| most Of US unite in enjoying the salad
dressing known to US as "mayon-
naise" The fact that this dressing
is a true emulsion makes not only a
ders the oil more digestible. as the
oily particles are thus held in sus-
pension instead of remaining in a
solid mass of fat
The oil used may be either olive.
in the yolk Of the egg, which is an
important part of mayonnaise, is re-
sponsible for emulsifying the oil. The
| acid, whether vinegar or lemon juice,
and salt and spices not only give
| flavor to the dressing, but also have
| an effect upon the emulsion itself
Manufacturers who give US the
standard brands of mayonnaise depend
on chemists to consider such cues
| tions as the type of oil, temperature,
methods of mixing and quantities of
| each ingredient to be used. And the
testing processes are marvels of scien-
| tific accuracy and skill
The various salad dressings on the
| market today vary in chemical COM
| position, but accepted products meas
ure up to double standard-the first
that Of the manufacturers own max
ing and the second that Of the Gov
ernment laboratory. This means that
| the housewife may absolutely depend
on their wholesomeness as we'll as on
their food value.

such an ensemble in pure white would
be charming A beige knitted sport

coat would be more practicable, while
a navy blue ensemble Of that sort
would be most utilitarian. If such
a dark color were chosen it would
be far better to choose a frock in
which some gay color was introduced
than one entirely blue. Some OF the
one-piece knitted frocks show bit
of vivid design in the sleeves or about
the hem of the skirt. Sometimes navy
blue shows a sort of shaded design
in gray. One good-looking knitted
frock in rayon or artificial silk shows
stripes of varying lengths in red,
white and light blue against the dark
blue.

Delicious Buns.
MRS. JOHN M. NELSON,
Wife OF Progressive Leader.

Although Mrs. Nelson has already
staged a full career in the upbring-
ing of six children, she is more than
likely to decide that a campaign III
which one is so vitally interested
as she and her husband are in the
political fortunes of presidentlai
candidate almost in the family can
far outdo the demand of mere
family of lively children. Mr.. Mel
sons MANAGEMENT of Senator La Fol
lete's campaign for the presidency
makes that race one in which the
fortunes of both men as well as Sen
ator Wheeler are involved. AL all
events, every member of all three
families is bound to the wheel OF
the third party and the energies as
well as the sympathies Of all are
enlisted in making the goal.
Something of the painstaking care
which Mrs. Nelson has lavished upon
her family is reflected in her cook
cry. Her buns are famous:
Soak one yeast cake in one-half
cup of water at noon. When dis
solved add one cup of lukewarm
water. Make a soft batter and let
it rise until night. Then add two
cups cold water, one cup sugar, one
half cup lard. one tablespoon salt.
Make a soft sponge and let it rise
in a hard loaf. Let rise until noon.
Then knead it down. Knead it down
again at o'clock. In the evening
make out in small buns and set
them about two inches apart. When
they rise again bake. This will make
about so buns.

HOW TT STARTED
ssMosaic'' Work.
BY JEAN NEWTON.

This name for the beautiful stone
inlay work which we associate with
palatial grandeur has no relation to,
although it has the same spelling. as
the word which indicates relationship
to Moses.
Derived from the Latin through the
French mosaique, the word really
means pertaining to the muses."
And in this sense it is sometimes
used to express the quality OF fine
arts in general
Mosaic work., the inlay OF small
colored disks in patterns. Is an an
cient form Of art, some OF its most
beautiful examples having been un-
earthed in excavations OF PerEamus,
a city in ancient Greece. And Pliny
explains its beginning and the origin
of it's name with the information
that such floors were first used in
the grottos consecrated to the muses..

Breadtin,e Stories for
Little Folks

tell Us that in the ancient days
Roman boys and girls ate bread
and cheese, and bread and meat
in the form of sandwich,
which they called "offulo."
But neither the little Romans,
nor even the Earl of Sandwich
himself, ever tasted the de-
licious sandwiches that your
mother can make for you with
Corby's Mothers Bread and
jellies and jams, lettuce and
fruits, and many other good
things.
If you want to know how
good a sandwich can really be.
ask mother to make you this
one: cut a slice of Corby's
Mothers Bread about half an
inch thick and three or four
inches square; cover the top
with butter and then with
strawberry jam, and all around
the sides spread a layer of
softened cream cheese YOuIf
say it's just the thing for the
picnic lunch, or a bite between
meals at home. Probably you
can think of lots of other ways
to make tasty sandwiches with
Corby's Mothers Bread. It's
almost as much fun to invent
new kinds of sandwiches as it
is to eat them. So why not
try?

THK THIRD PARTY MoYEMENT
(From the Whibefish Pilot

(From the Whitsfiah Pilot
A substantial interest is being
shown over the country relative to the
question Of q third or independent
party ticket In the national campaign
this fall. II is generally predicted
that the results Of the so-ealIed pro
gresssvs convention In Cleveland the
laat Of this week viii be largely hing
ed on the action taken by the Demo-
Gratis now in convention. It lie gener-
ally thought that II the Democrats
nominate q candidate who is consid-
erred progressive by the third party
element that likely no candidate win
be named at the Cleveland conven-
ton. II the Democrats nominate q
stalwArt, then the other convention
viii have q ticket in the field and the
candidates will probably have the sup
port Of the Farner-Labor supporters
who nominated provisional ticket at
St Paul q week ago.
II Is admitted that a third party
ticket headed by man like LaFollette
or someone that he would support,
might be big factor in the fall cleo
ton. And in case a third party Of
that character should take the field
there Il considerable speculation as TO
II would draw most from the
or Democratic ticket. One
hing seems quite sure and that is that
! third party ticket headed by man
ike LaFollette would muddle the wat
sra in things political this fall. Most /:

oers Of the Republican party with
light sprinkling Of Democrats like
Of Montana. Indeed, it has
,een suggested that a third party

Democrats should nominate a conser-
alive nj New York. This would tend .
