Planning This Weeks Food.

house or tenderloin is not essential.
The top part of the round makes
very delicious steak. The possibilities
of cold beefsteak are not fully appre-
ciated. ANY bit of leftover broiled
steak, particularly that from the
fiavorous round. is delicious when
chopped and mixed with mixed pickles
and served as sandwich filling.
Again. strips Of plain cold broiled
steak are appetizing served simply as
cold meat. Cut the steak in finger
lengths and arrange in an attractive
manner on a small platter. choosing
the garnishing with great care. Then
cut slices Of crisp little sweet pickles.
Another addition Is a border of stuffed
olives or one of minced salt olives
moistened with salad dressing. Bits
Of sweet red peppers may be added to
give the necessary dash Of color.
Desserts next week are very mex
pensive, as dried fruits are used more
than has been the case. The fig tapi
oca. the steamed fruit pudding. the
dried apricot gelatin all feature dried
fruits, while the pineapple sherbet and
the pineapple dessert are delicious

Housewives and cooks have been
known to think of curry as some-
thing to fall back on when some un-
desirable flavor, scorch or slight
staleness would otherwise make a
dish unpalatable. II you have been
treated to such cooking, then doubt
less you have a dislike for curry. But
when added to food otherwise fresh
and toothsome curried dishes are
delicious.
There Is something else some of
us have thought of curry. We have
thought of 1t as a purely exotic dish.

recipes calling for fresh cocoanut

preparation, expert tasting to make
sure it was quite right.
And perhaps We have memory
of refreshments served at an inter-
esting house. refreshments consist

that had made the long trip just for
the entertainment in question.
Somehow we have thought that
curry. to be right, must be an ex-
travagance.
Not so. Curry may be added to

than granulated, and be careful not to

Children especially must be cautioned
about this, because 1t Is easy to allow
a sauce of this character to overbal-

sugar.
Try baking macaroni with some
thing besides cheese! Combine with
corn, which is also delicious and nour.
ishing, and it also goes well with
mushrooms or other vegetables. The
best macaroni is made from hard
wheat, and for this reason usually
contains good proportion OF the
wheat proteins. One must not forget,
however, that this must be supple

Do you know beans? Old.fashioned
baked beans are good, but they are
only one Of quite a large family. Kid
ney beans, for example. are distinctly
attractive and are also rich In food

usual soup, and 1t should be served
with slices Of lemon and bits OF chop

are one Of the aristocrats Of the bean
family, as they contain certain valu.

beans.

Bought NeighbOrs' Towels BY
Mail

One of the best illustrations or the
mail order" joke came to the editors
attention recently. A lady living In
the small town of Bolton, in the CEN
ter of the textile belt of South Caro-
liza. ordered some nice towels from
mail order house, paying 20 cents each
for them. They seemed to be great
bargain.
The money went from her town, and
the towels came back They were all
that had been claimed for them. On
the band was a stamp, MADE by Blair
Mills, Bolton, S. c." The lady's next
door neighbor ran the mills and she
could have bought the towels for $l.05
dozen at home.
This is merely clear illustration Of
the necessity for town builders to look
around before sending money away.
II is also clear that merchants having
mail order prices beaten to a frazzle,
viii never get the business Of their
own neighbor unless they tell them
that they have the goods. Advertising
is the merchants only warfare against
mail order houses.

CONSIDERS STATE
DOG QUARANTINE
Ra:ieS Prevalent, State
Health Board Says.

Rabies have become so prevalent
throughout the State that a special
meeting of the Indiana board of
health has been callt d for next
Wednesday, by DIR. William F. King,
secretary, to discuss the advisability
of placing the entire State under
quarantine.
Contrary to popular opinion, So
called dog days" Of July and Au-
gust have nothing whatever to DO
with the increase of the disease.
More cases have been reported this
month than at any time throughout
the year, reports reveal. A map in
DIR. Kings office shows the increase.
Marion County has led in the number
Of dogs heads sent in for examina-
ton. but every county in the State
has had its quota. In August there
were forty-s cases and after a lull
the total mounted to forty-seven last
month and is increasing daily.
If the board decides that a gen
eral quarantine is required 1t will
have the baking Of Governor Jack
son. DR.. King said. 1t would mean
that every dog at large must ge kept
muzzled, or it will be shot. Stock
losses has already made necessary a
local quarantine in Jackson
County.

Political RumOrs
In the meantime political runors
were IN circulation that there would
be no indictments as a result of the
eleven weeks Of probe and the call
ing of many witnesses. Some of tho
rumors afloat were that two of the
jurors were refusing to consider any
indictments.
Under the faw, it requires five of
the six votes in the jury to return
any indictments.
Pressure Put On
For the past two weeks political
pressure has been placed on prose
cutors to prevent any indictments,
and officials of the Republican party
have attempted to suggest that any
indictments would be hurtful to
party interest, prefacing the sugges-
tions with the comment that Of
course they did not desire to make
any improper advances.
The jury received the advice Of
Prosecutor Remy, Judge Cause and
Ralph Kane last week as to the law
governing the evidence which It had
received during it's probe. This ad.
vice was given at a lengthy confer
ence. The law provides that the
prosecutors can advise only as to
law and not as to the weight Of any
evidence.
