LIVER COOKED IN
DIFFERENT WAYS
So-Called Fancy Meat Is
of Great Value.

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
Liver has been found to be of such
value in the diet that 1t ought to ap-
pear on the table fairly frequently. In
addition to the protein it supplies,
like other meats, liver is good
source of vitamines and minerals.
especially iron, and is often recon-
mended for anemic people who need
more iron in their menus. AS its
flavor Is somewhat pronounced, 1t is
advisable to combine it with various
other foods so that each dish seems
to be different.
A recipe provided by the bureau of
home economics suggested cooking
the liver in casserole with mush-
rooms, which have also a distinctive
flavor. The dish is prepared as fol-
lows:
Liver and Mushrooms en- Casserole.
l pound liver in cup hot water OF
slices about n meat stock
Inch thick 4 tablespoons but
cups mushrooms. ter
chopped 1 blespoon
" cup dry grated chopped parsley
bread crumbs teaspoon grated
onion
Remove the skin from the sliced
liver and place the liver in a buttered
baking dish. Melt the butter and
cook the parsley and onion for
few minutes and then mix in the
bread crumbs, salt and mushrooms
Stir until well mixed and spread the
liver with this mixture. Rinse out
the pan with the water or meat stock
and pour over the ingredients in the
casserole. Cover and cook in slow
oven from 45 to 60 minutes Turn
the liver during the cooking. Serve
from the dish.
Another good dish containing liver
Is made by combining equal portions
of liver and ham. Here Is the recipe:
Dreamed Liver and Ham on, Toast.
l pound liver w cups cream or
3 blesp poems
chopped parsley
Wipe the liver and remove the skin.
Cook the ham in covered frying pan
until tender, then remove and grind it.
In the meantime cook the liver slowly
in the ham drippings until tender Cut
into small pieces, add the ground ham,
the chopped parsley and the cream,
and stir until well mixed. Serve on
crisp thin toast.

st. Croix think of the teachers being
asked to do this instead of the daugh-
ter of the house? She considered
swiftly what would be her best course
to avert suspicion on both sides. To
get across the kitchen to the stairway
and run up to her room? Mr.
Schwencken would be bound to stop
her and insist that she stay and have
coffee and doughnuts with them, and
If he spoke to her at all, st. Croix
would notice how differently he ad-
dressed her and Nettie. To remain
here, however was more certain to In
vite exposure. And yet, she was
afraid to go away for fear Of what
might come out in her absence.
Nettie, as she hustled about making
coffee and setting out cups and sau-
GERS, saw, with keen chagrin, how Mr..
Creighton's eyes kept turning toward
Nicely and never in her direction. And
the expression on his face-furtive,
hungry, infatuated! Was this, Nettie
wondered, case of love on sight?
She was greatly puzzled, for in her
opinion Nicely "looked mess" In that
sloppy kimono and with "plait"
down her back.
AS Mr.. Creighton hung up the re-
ceiver, there was a quick movement
in the room-Meely making for the
stairs.
Zach, Nicely" began Mr.. Schwenck-
ton.
"Good night" she interrupted, rush
ing up the steps before he could stop
her-but not before she caught in st.
Croix' eyes the evidence of the con-
flict in his mind-a passionate protest
against her going, mingled with fear
Of her presence.
Upstairs in her own room, while she
prepared for bed, she had the exciting
suspense of wondering whether they
were talking about her; whether st.
Croix had noticed the kimono she had
on, a Japanese embroidered silk thing
that a county school teacher would
hardly own If she were what she
should be! Yes, this kimono could
be SlVe-aWay.
"Well when this sort of thing could
happen it was evident that she could
not much longer keep up her farce.
She must bring things to climax as
soon as possible; beguile st. Croix to
lay his cards on the table; force his
hand for a showdown.
The sound Of the cabinet organ In
the parlor below her bedroom, and
Nettie's shrill voice singing, interrupt
ed her thoughts. Nettle was invari-
ably called upon by her father to en-
terrain company" with her musical
accomplishments of organ and voice,
and of course such distinguished COM
pany as Mr.. st. Croix Creighton
would have to be favored. Through
Nettie's lungs and fingers the entire
family found their one and only ar.
tistic expression.

STORY FROM THE START

Handsome, fastidious and
wealthy-young st. Croix Creigh-
ton awaits his sweetheart at
their trysting place. She Is late,
this ordinary little Pennsylvania
Dutch girl, Nicely Schwenckton.
Despite her seeming innocence
and ignorance, she succeeds In
keeping him at a distance, to
his chagrin. Nicely, in the
Schwenckton home, where she is
boarding. Is altogether unlike
the girl who meets st. Croix
clandestinely. She is the teacher
in the neighborhood school. Of
which Marvin Creighton, st.
Croix' brother, is superintendent.
Nicely learns that Marvin was to
English lady, but. believing she
was attracted by the Creighton
wealth, had refused the alliance.
1t Is the rumor that st. Croix Is
to take Marvin's place and marry
the English girl. st. Croix' jeal-
ousy is aroused by Meelys report
of an aged sutton for her hand.
The girl cleverly decoys him into
admitting he has no intention of
marrying her. Marvin visits
school in his official capacity as
superintendent and discovers
how shockingly little Nicely
knows about school teaching. Mr..
Schwenckton, coming home from
town, picks up stranger, and
finding his watch gone, demands
the stranger get out and turn
over his watch.

She broke the present lull by breach

"Not so very often. Now and then"
