An Italian Dish.
An inexpensive vet delicious sliced
meat with or without sauce can be
served from the under part Of the

what they call "lesso." meaning boil
ed" You would think yourself eating
a tender roast of delicate flavor that is
something between lamb and beef.

an agreeable accompa niment. First.

chopped onions, diced pepper. parsley
and tomatoes. Let simmer for 20 min
utes or half an hour.
Ordering.
In buying the meat for this dish
specify that you like to have it In a
thick. solid piece rather than a slice.
1t is best this way. Italians are apt
to use the water in which it is boiled
for soup. Thus the meat serves two
purposes. OF course. vegetables and
other ingredients are added to the
soup stock. preferably while the meat
is being cooked The meat imparts
some of its favor to them and likewise
do they to the meat. The meat should
not he boiled too long or all of its
flavor will he extracted. About an
hour To the pound is the right length
of time. Be sure that the meat does
not boil hard and the water is not
salted until after the first hour OF
cooking. TO do SO will interfere with
its being moist and tender.
Mint Sauce Ia India
The Indian or Hindu way of making
mint sauce Is quite different from our
own. and very delicious. 1t is done as
follows: Chop mint fine. Add olive
oil until a paste is formed. This will

until it is the consistency of thick

tempting and does not run all over the
plate where it is not wanted. Al.
though mint sauce is associated With
roast lamb. 1t can be served with chops
if preferred.

Onion sauce Is sometimes served
with lamb in England. The onions are

lem OF buying the right hosiery

1T seems utterly hopeless to me,
Mrs. Grandon replied.
This is typical of the attitude OF
thousands upon thousands of women.
Some keep searching for informa-

You can easily learn how to detect

the imitation. Genuine full fashioned

tip to top of stocking.
The imitation is merely the old
IA shioned tubular hose. with fake
seam running up the back. Alter the
first washing it loses its shape-twist-
ing and wrinklmg around the ankle
i'll loose folds.
The genuine full fashioned is knit
to conform to the shape OF the leg and
insures perfect neatness and style.
When the name 'kayser" is on ho-
siery. it is guarantee OF 1000 full
fashioned; 1000 pure silk; 1000 pure

When you buy hosiery just say
"Kayser's, please" and you will save
yourself not only from disappoint-

First. vou should analvze the claims
made ior different hosiery and learn
few simple ways OF comparison.
The claim OF pure silk" can be
made BY any one However. claim
is not ALWAYS a truth. The sole in
surance YOU have that the hosiery yor
buy is pure silk is the name and lame
Of the manufacturer.
If it is long established firm with
a reputation to maintain, you can bc
absolutely sure that the claim OF pure
silk is true.
Pure dyes" is another factor that
means much to you. II dyes are not
pure. the fabric will rot and the lie
of the hosiery will be shortened.
Furthermore. there is common
practice OF loading" or weighing
hosiery which gives it false impres-
sion of weight. Mere heaviness is not
an indication OF quality. kayscr ho-
siery is neUer weighted.

Girl Now Confesses She Made Up Yarns
 To Avoid Spankings

ABERDEEN, March 20.-Dolores DuVal, pretty 16-year-old Aberdeen girl whose three mysterious esca- pades on the Wishkah road have baf- fled police here for two weeks, was revealed here yesterday as the prin- cipal and only actress in a fantastic hoax.
 In signed affidavit delivered to her mother and sister and two dep- uty sheriffs, she confessed that her kidnapping, loss of memory and tales of being drugged were merely asser- tions to enable her to escape a spank ing by her mother for staying out un- til eight in the morning
 She confessed she had not been attacked had not been doped or mis- treated and that she alone was re- sponsibIe for every act in the drama of which she was the leading figure.

Airships Soon To
 Span the Continent
ZEPPELINS WILL BE DRIVEN BY PACKARD MOTORS AS IN
 SHENANDOAH

DETROIT, March 20.-Within less than two years when a Spanish gran dee gets the hunch he would like to see again the beautiful South Am erican senorita whom he met on the Riviera the winter before, the 750O mile trip to the Argentine will mean but little to him. At most it will be matter of only two or three days travel in the greatest ease and lux ury.
 Harry Vissering, Chicago, American representative of the Zeppelin Air ship Building company, is authority for the statement that plans are now almost completely matured for the building of the first great air liner which will link Spain with the Ar genuine with a regular passenger ser vice and express route. He insists it will combine perfect safety wjth the greatest comfort and speed now almost inconceivable for a trip of such length. To America may come the job of building this pioneer Of long distance air travel.
 However, when the great Madrid Buenos Aires airship warps out of her hangar for her initial trip, long distance travel by air may be an old story to the people of the United States. First air lines now pro- jected in America will link New York and San Francisco and New York and Chicago Successfully cross l ing the Atlantic by the ZR-3 with the transcontinental trip of the Shenan- doah and the Army's world encirci- ing aerial tour, he believes has done more than anything in years to pave the way for public acceptance of air travel without fear.
 That commercial use of great air ships is a settled certainty in Ameri- ca, and only very short time off, was disclosed by Mir Vissering while visiting the factory of the Packard
 Motor company here to arrange for
 the delivery of a Packard Eight car

Gas Code to Prevent
 Fatal Mishaps Asked

WASHINGTON, D. C, March 20.- Rules forbidding use of unauthorized attachments with gas burners are among the provisions of a safety code for the use of gas, now being prepared under the auspices of the bureau of standards of the depart ment of commerce and the American Gas association.
 Government experts and others on the committee regard use of such at tachments as dangerous, because of likelihood of generating carbon mon- oxide. Gas burner designs are matter for experts, it is held, and attachments that change the condi- tions under which gas is burned should be used only with the advice of experts
 Another rule considered essential is one providing that mo appliance shall be installed which is not sus- ceptible of adjustment to effect com plete combustion of the gas supplied to it under all reasonable service conditions"
 The rules being formulated are in- tended to apply in homes and resi- dences.

GHOSTS TOLEAVE SURRATT HOME
 WHEN REBUILT
RESTAURANT WILL OCCUPY THE HOUSE WHERE MURDER OF
 LINCOLN WAS PLOTTED

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 2O.- The ghosts that walk by night in the old Surratt house at No. GOA H. St, Northwest, where John Wilkes Booth, the mad actor, and his co-conspira- tors plotted the assassination Of Abra- ham Lincoln are to be driven out and the picturesque old building will be remodeled into a restaurant with a modern front to hide the outline of the haunted house.
 When Irwin SwartZman, of Alexan- dria, who owns the property, finishes the remodeling, the historic house will lose much of it's interest to hun- dreds of sightseers and neighbors will be convinced that the last of the weird tappings of ghostly fingers of the men and women who killed Lin coin have been heard in the little par Tor on the second floor.
 Before the Civil War flamed out, Mrs. Mary Surratt, widow from Sur rattsville, Maryland, moved to Wash ington and took the house on H street as a rooming and boarding house; and it was there, according to the testimony at her trial later, that John Wilkes Booth, young Powell, and oth- CTS, distorted by their hatred of the Union and the blow to the Confeder- acy, came together the afternoon Lin- coin was killed, and arranged with Mrs. Surratt to provide horses for the conspirators for their flight through Maryland and Virginia, which ended when Boston Corbett sent the bullet into the brain of Booth after the lat ter had been cornered in a barn.
 Mrs. Surratt, with full knowledge of the plot against the life of Lincoln, left immediately in a buggy for Sur rattsville, her former home, to make the necessary arrangements. She was accompanied by Lewis Weikman, one OI nSl DOdluGlS, WuUSC teStlulOuy alt erward led to her execution.
 And the next night Booth killed Lincoln as he sat in the Presidential box at Fords Theatre.
 Days before the assassination, Mrs Surratt and her son, John, with Boott the murderer, had sat in her house and evolved wild plot to kidnap the President but General Robert E. Lee had surrendered the Confederate army to General U. S. Grant, and it was toe late. It was then that Booth. bitter at the loss of the Southern cause made up his mind to kill Lincoln anC Secretary Seward
 From the time of Lincoln's assassi nation the house has gradually faller into decay. Families moved in bu soon moved out, and rumors spread that the ghost of Mrs. Surratt fitted through the corridors and tapped or the windows.
 More than two years ago the steps which led up to the second story fel down and since then the house ha been tumbling ruin, grim reminde, of the most tragic event in American history.
