Vegetables in Color

What Is more appetizing these
hot days than q cool, crisp salad
Of green vegetables, or q colorful
plate Of cooked vegetables. Broiled
tomatoes, fried okra, saute carrots,
green limas, celery au-gratin,
asparagus and mushrooms in

more interesting ways to prepare

ing to brown evenly. fried okra Is
parboiled with stems on, drained
well, stems cut off, dipped IN
thin egg mixture Zone egg and two
tablespoons milk, then in cracker
meal and fried in deep Wesson oil
until well Drowned. Carrots are
sauted in finely.chopped bacon, sea
soned with salt and pepper and
chopped parsley. Green lmas are
cooked until tender in water to
cover with salt and one teaspoon
sugar, drained, and one-haf cup
milk poured over them and
brought to the boiling point. The
heavy stalks Of celery are cut in
about one inch squares, cooked in
salted water until tender, placed
in baking dish and covered with
thin white sauce, one-half cup
grated yellow cheese and q few
bread crumbs. Drowned slightly
and served hot. Asparagus is
cooked in whole stalks and the
mushrooms are chopped and added
to the sauce, the sauce poured
over the asparagus. Green salads
are more appetizing when mari
mated in Wesson oil, paprika and
a dash Of horSeradish, for about
80 minutes before serving. This in
no way interferes with serving
them with the Wesson oil mayon-

To Decorate Waste Baskets and
Boxes
One of the most attractive and
ingenious decorations for waste
baskets and small makeup, letter
or sewing boxes is the application
of prints or pictures. Even car
toons and magazine advertise
ments have been cut out and clev-
erly arranged on such receptacleS.
The pictures may be neatly pasted
on the surface and then coated
with wax to make them look mel
low and antique. If glossier fin
ish is desired, first apply a coat Of
clear lacquer and then wax.
To Prevent Drawers, Windows and
Doors From Sticking
When table, desk and bureau
drawers tend to stick during damp
weather, remove them and rub q
little. paste wax along their run
ners and along the sides Of the
drawer compartments. They will
then glide with renewed ease. II
doors and windows also prove diff
cult to open, try rubbing some
paste wax over the jamb frame

Bill for Sentiment.

Our friend was writing checks when
we called on her, and after writing one,
she turned to us and said, I'm paying
bill for sentiment now We expected that
II would be a bill for some impecunlous
friend. Inquiry elected the fact that
it was for an old upright piano.
Our friend had learned to play on
that piano and it had been in the fam
lily for years Many Of those years 1t
had been in storage. Helen said that
she simply could not part from IT. IL
would be like snubbing an old friend or
diScharging an old, faithful servant
without cause.
Her sentiment may have been admir-
able in some respects, but we thought
reflection on her part might make her
see another side of 1t.
What she paid for sentiment might
go farther in charity 1t might be the
means of bringing cheer into home or
two. The piano was valueless to her,
yet in some poor home or settlement
house it could be the means of starting
some ones musical education.
How much better she would feel In
knowing that some less fortunate chill
dren were learning the rudiments OF
music on her old, faithful instrument?

The preparations for laying the oooy
of President Lincoln In state were COM

will be afforded the public tomorrow to
view the features of the dead President
for the last time. No one will be per-
mitted to linger in the White Hossss

electric needle. They seem more promi

Answer-In spite Of what the skin
doctor told you. your description of the
warts" make me strongly suspect that
they are whiteheads after all. White
heads, as you likely know, are clogged
pores Just the same as blackheads, only
being under the outer layer of skin
they remain white. They are usually
most numerous around the eyes, and II
not removed CRY up into horny specks
greatly resembling warts. The correct
way to treat these blemishes is to prick
them open with sterliZed needle (be
sure il is sterlized), press out the white
matter inside and then use an anti
septic wash. The following makes a
good lotion to apply: Two ounces rose
water, so grains sulphate Of zinc, !
ounce oil Of sweet almonds. Mix well
and massage into the skin until it dries.
Finish the treatment by applying a
little toilet water to close the pores.
However. since one doctor has dag
nosed YOUR trouble as warts IL might
be wise for you to see another before
irving any home remedies on these
blemiShes. 1t is often dangerous to
tamper with wart and If a thoroughly
reliable skin specialist calls them that,
it would be best for you 70 leave the
treatment 10 him. From your descrip-
ton their removal should not be a
serious matter. LOIS LEEDS.
