The bureau of standards says wood
is the best insulator for ice. How
ever, it is as impossible to keep an ice
box cold without melting the ice as it
would be to keep a stove hot with
out burning coal. OF course, an ice
box should be so constructed as TO
prevent the heat from the outside get

N Salad.-R emove the
II Mlu, Hl1 skin from two bananas,
NSS4 scrape and cut into
halves lengthwise. Mix
one neufchatel cheese
with two tablespoonfuls Of chopped
mint leaves, add salt and French
dressing. Spread half Of the mixture
on two slices of banana, cover with
the other slices and press firmly. Cut
into slices and arrange on lettuce;
serve with French dressing. Chopped
nuts or chopped olives may be used
for variety In place Of the mint leaves.
Summer Salad.-A most attractive
salad may be prepared with two or
three cooked vegetables. Make small
mounds of chopped seasoned spinach,
peas and chopped cooked potato, out
lining each with chopped cooked beets.
The vegetables should all be mari
mated with French dressing. Smoked
salmon, sardines or herring cut into
strips may be used in place Of beets-
When preparing any salad, especial
ly potato, 1t should stand several
hours in good salad dressing to sea-
son. There is nothing more unpal-
atable than cold potato coated with
dressing which has not seasoned it
Fish Aspic.-Put head and bones Of
white fish into one quart Of cold wa
ter, add two cupfuls Of tomato Juice,
two tablespoonfuls of chopped onion,
two tablespeonfuls each of chopped
carrot and celery, two sprlgs of pars-
ley, bit of bay leaf, and one and one
half teaspoonfuls of peppercerns.
Simmer gently one and one-half hours,
strain, season with salt, cayenne and
lemon juice. When cool add the whites
and yolks of two eggs and four table
spoonfuls of gelatin; stir constantly,
until the boiling point is reached, let
stand ten minutes, strain through a
double cheesecloth and pour into mold
until firm. Serve on lettuce with any
desired dressing. This aspic may be
used for any number of fish salads
Some of this aspic with shrimps, hard
cooked egg, cucumber, makes a most
pleasing combination.
DeViled Chicken.-Make a sauce
with salt, pepper, dry mustard, pap
rika, grated lemon rind, lemon juice,
worcestershire sauce and few drops
of tabasco. When very hot add cup
full or more of cubed cooked chicken
and cook until well heated. Add q
tablespoonful of butter and serve.
Pork, veal or lamb may be served In
the same way.

bunal an attorney Of standing who

that he did not know that there was

The term "realtor" is q coined
