Many Uses for Celery Found

dandelion stems, only not so tightly.
Celery curls are considered very delicate
and dainty. They certainly are de-
licious. When making them, first tear
off the strings of the coarser stalks.
What remains will be juicy and tender.
Cut the leaves of celery from the
fronds leaving every particle of stalk
uncut. Snip off the wee tips of the
stalks so left and use them for salads
or in variety of soup in which they
will not be strained out. The leaves
that is to be strained. The main stalks
will be left for curls and the hearts
and a few stalks surrounding them for
table celery as is. The delicate fresh
leaves make attractive garnish for
meats, fish. etc.
The leaves not used Immediately
either for garnish or for soup or sea-
soning. can be dried and put in an air
tight jar to preserve their flavor. Celery
leaves may be dried by exposure to the
air in some warm place, or they can
be spread on pan or plate and put
in a warm, not hot, over to dehydrate
Dried leaves can be put in soup that

sired flavor and zest II used in clear
soup. put the leaves in small cheese
cloth bag. tie up securely, and drop into
the kettle. Remove before serving the
soup.
The dehydrated leaves can be rolled
until they are like powder, and be
sprinkled over meat that is roasting,
when the roast is dredged with salt and
pepper. This adds a delicate flavor. Or
the powder can be lightly sprinkled over
vegetable salad when fresh celery is
not available, and so impart a soupoon
of favor.

January 20. 1861.-Most of the local
preachers whose sermons or prayers are
reported In today'S newspapers refer
to the critical situation of the Nation,
asking Gods blessing upon mankind,
and that the attention Of all men be
called to their common brotherhood
Rev. Mr. Holmead, rector of Grace
Episcopal Church, said in his sermon:
THE crew of our ship Of state are not
willing to throw over the smallest
prejudices to enable her to ride the
Pauls ship who wished to leave 1t, but
Paul said, Except these abide in the
ship We cannot be saved They were
needed to work the vessel"
In conclusion, Rev. Mr.. Holmead ex-
pressed fervent trust that terrible as
was the storm, our own noble ship of
state would yet ride into the port bear
ing all her crew and wearing the Stars
and Stripes"

their arrival here by their military
bearing and courtesy.
There are 1900 stand of arms in the
