Minted Carrots are delicious addi-
lions to a vegetable dinner. Wash
clean and scrape lightly eight to
ten young garden carrots. Cut
them in inch pieces and boil till
just tender in a small quantity of
water. Drain and add 4 table,
spoonsful of vinegar, 2 tablespoons
full of sugar, 1 tablespoonful Of
butter and a sprig or two of fresh
mint. Cook gently five minutes, re-
move the mint before serving.

served as the main dish for dinner.

and cover with nicely seasoned
cream sauce. Meantime cut six
to eight slices of bacon in small
pieces, fry crisply, drain and
sprinkle over the peas. Serve at
once.
String Beans au Gratin are ex.
tremely good. If the beans are
gathered while still young they will
be very tender and stringless.

BY CAROLINE B. KING

r DON'T know of anything that
has a greater power to thrill
l. me than the sight of green
peas and tender lettuce maturing
in the garden. How anxiously |
wait the day when the first mess"
is ready for the table, and how
eagerly | gather and prepare the
delicious succulent things.
Vegetable dinners are becoming
more and more popular as house
wives are learning the delicious
ness of fresh garden vegetables.
Most women now know that it is
a mistake to overlook any green
vegetable, or to cook it in too great
a quantity of water IL the fresh
flavor and all the vital qualities
with which our good green vege-
tables are blessed are to be pre-
served-an open kettle, just enough
slightly sailed water to cover and
a short cooking period are required.
Salt added to the water in which
green vegetables are cooked sets
their delicate color; few drops
of lemon juice added to the water
when cauliflower or white turnips
or celery is being cooked prevents
the vegetable from darkening and
a tablespoonful of vinegar will in
tensify the red of beets or the gold
of carrots.
Lettuce and chicory are usually
served as salads, but they are both
very tasty when cooked lightly and
dressed with a cream sauce in real
French fashion.

Let Us Be Pruned

As the most generous vine, If 1t is
not pruned, runs out into many super
fuous stems and grows at last weak
and fruitless; so doth the best man,
If he be not cut short of his desires
and pruned with affections. II 1t be
painful to bleed, 1t is worse to wither.
Let me be pruned that ! may grow,
rather than be cut up to burn.-Hall.

King Had to Buy Land

In $500 B. @. a Babylonian king
purchased some tracts of land and
had the transaction recorded in pre-.
else language on a large dark-green
stone. 1t is worth noting that this
king did not confiscate the land that
he wanted but bought 1t from the own
ers in perfectly legal way, which
shows how firmly established were
the rights of private ownership so
many centuries ago.-Boston Herald.

Hot Air

A deafening report followed by
groan. The circus hands ran from all

or a cage fallen over? Perhaps some
one had been shot. A crowd quickly
gathered In q far corner of the tent

ground. The India rubber man had
had a blowout.

Famou. Irish Altar

The Joyce altar, in old st. Nicholas
church In Galway, Ireland, dates back
to the year 1900, or Whereabouts, and
has somehow escaped the ravages of
war, pillage and time. In 1t the de-
sign is noble and the carving is free
and exquisite.

piled Doris, lowering one hand
long enough to make a sweep

where lay her scanty assort-

Doris again noticed the
pinched face-rather good look
ing, too-above the turned-up
coat collar, the hand that
would shake now and then, al
though he tried to steady 1t.
The young man sided over
to the dresser, lifted a string
of beads in his left hand.
"Pearlsl" he muttered.

laughing again. The man turned
and glowered at her.

rather pathetically. II haven't

Somehow he seemed to have
