DIFFERENT WAY
To PREPARE
PORK CUTS
Ham, Cooked in Delicious
Manner, Popular at
Every Meal.
BY ERNA J. BERTRAMS
Department Of Food Economics,
Armour & Company.

Of course, you have prepared nam
in at least few ways, but have you
tried to concoct new and varied
dishes? The serving of boiled, broiled
or baked ham has a tendency to be-
come monotonous. when appearing on
the table for several meals.
The uses of ham are so MANY that
there is no need for serving ham the
same way more than once. If a whole
ham is purchased and the family is
small. have the butcher cut it into
three portions-the butt, center and
shank. The butt or round end of the
ham is delicious baked in cider, or
other fruit juices; the center makes
tempting slices for broiling or south
ern baked ham, while the shank end
adds flavor to bland foods or vege-
tables.
USE LEFT.OVERS.
Every scrap may be utilized in the
making of appetizing dishes for lunch.
con or dinner. The use of left-overs
may be considered a problem for many
foods. but the preparation of dishes
from leftover ham is quite a pleasure,
because they are sure to please.

butt or boiled shank may be used as
follows-these are but few of the

High on the mountains
Where trees are green and tall,
'Cept when they haven't
Any leaves at all,
Squirrels and chipmunks,
Honey bees and bears,
And all SORTS of animals
That give you lots of scares,
Live and growl and grumble,
In their forest homes,
Skip and prance and tumble,
With the mountain gnomes.

CODDLED EGG.

This Is the correct term for what
is ordinarily called a boiled egg. The
difference lies in the fact that the
coddled egg has been placed In boil
ing water. the sauce pan covered and
the whole drawn back to a cool part of
the stove. In this way the white part
of the egg is kept soft, jelly-like and
digestible, whereas, boiling would
harden 1t. If you wish the egg soft
boiled" 1t remains in the water over
six to eight minutes.

POTATO CONTAINS
MOST ALKALINE SALT

Our old friend. the potato, has
more alkaline salts than any other
vegetable. 1t contains forty times as
much base-forming material az most
of the cereals. The potato is. how.
ever, lacking in necessary minerals
and its use must be supplemented by
green vegetables and fruits.

No Such Thina

THEY interview Mary Garden to the
/ extent of q column as to "the perfect
man" and the crux of Maly's talk is. "A
perfect man is impossible" No call for
it, save that Mary interviews well.
Maybe Adam was created perfect but
he didn't remain so long. and there has
been no perfect man since his early days,
nor woman, nor child. A very, very linn
tied number of women think that they
have a perfect man, but the neighbors
know better. Nor would perfect man
be of much use, in this life, II is the inn
PROJECTIONS and the striving to overcome
them that makes man go.
An interview with Mary Garden on the
perfect woman might be more interesting.

Get Away From
"Mereness"

THEODORE ROOSEVELT was
l. Of the opinion that the
mere lawyer was not supe-
rlor 20, but rather the inferior
Of. the mere" man OF any
other occupation as a public Of.
fetal.
Doubtless he would have pil y
ferrcd something beyond the
mere" grade OF any sort. Ger.
tainly the mere" politician, tho
not tho most incompetent, is de-
cidedly the most dangerous OF
all.
And the mere" publIclst,
who In his library has studied
It all out, is likely to be an in.
valuable assistant. but q useless
leader.
The best thing is 10 get away
from "mereness" Of any sort.
But that is not easy, in this
day OF spcclanrm. when VIC alb.
solutely must act on expert
knowledge, and the man who is
not a mere" something in par.
tieular Is likely TO be nothing in
general.
Only once In a while we find
a Roosevelt. who is an intelli.
gent amateur Of everything and
something more than a mere
expert in something. g
