Pork Sandwich. ~ Mix chopped,
cooked pork with chopped onion and

corned Beef Sandwich-Put thick
slice Of corned beef between two

variety. Another way is to chop the
corned beef, add mustard and enough
Of the fat Of the meat for richness
and use on buttered rye bread.
Dried beef chopped with green pep
pers and salad dressing to moisten
used on rye bread is especially tasty.
Norway Sandwlch.-Boil two cup
fuls of tomato, add pound Of Clipped
dried beef and half pound Of rich
cheese which has been put through
a meat chopper. Let come to the boil
ing point, add one beaten egg and cook
to the spreading consistency. Add
cayenne and spread on buttered bread.
This will keep In the ice chest for
few days.
Dried Beef and Pickle Sandwich
Put one-fourth Of pound of dried
beef and three or four sweet pickles
through the food chopper, add may
onnaise and spread on buttered bread.
This tastes like ham sandwich.
Try beef, cheese and celery for q
mixture; moisten with salad dressing.
Chopped tongue with cucumber rel
ish or chopped pickles, used on but
tered whole wheat bread, is very good.
Tongue Sandwich.-Mix one cupful
of finely chopped tongue with one
chopped pimento and enough salad
dressing to spread. Spread buttered

Good Opinion Of World
Not Coveted by G. B. s.

An American journalist had been
interviewing George Bernard Shaw
and was amazed to find him, con-
trary to expectations, very friendly
and affable.
"Tell me-" he asked, show It came
about that so sympathetic and hui
man man as you are, has achieved
the sinister reputation of being I'M
approachable and always disposed
to snub the vast community Of your
admirers?"
"For heavens sake!" laughed
Shaw. "Don't talk to me about my
reputation. You see, it's this way.
So long as people don't know me per-
sonally, they insist that I must be a
horrid old man. Then, once they
have met me, they insist that I'm a
much nicer old man than I really am
and there's nothing I can do about
it."

Qualities That Make Garden

We have seen a. garden as full of
interest and charm as any elsewhere,
and nothing went into it but seeds
and good sense and patience. Only
one Of these commodities can be pur-
chased in the open market. The
others come Of caring enough for
living beauty, for the companionship
of growing things and for honest grub
bfng in the friendly earth. If you
have. the gift for these things you
may also have garden, and the
neighbors will come from near and
fur to envy it.-Philadelphi Record.
