They are bad enough, but there are
other things that are worse"

"Well," replied Mrs. Quack, 1--WE
haven't nearly as many places to go
now as we used to have. A lot Of the
lakes and the marshes have diSap-

away from them. The result is that

are left. And then there Is the OIL"

Bacon Drippings.

When great deal Of bacon is used,
the fat or fryings accumulate and many
housewives are at a loss to make use Of
them except in a limited way. They
may be used for nearly all frying pur-
poses and for shortening in muf11ns.
cornbread and biscuits. When you have
about a quart Of these fryings, put q
gallon of water in large aluminium
kettle, add the fryings, and bring to a
brisk boil. Set off to cool, then lift of
the cake of fat, which will be nearly as
white as lard If the bacon has been
carefully fried. All of the settings and
most of the bacon taste will remain in
the water. A pinch of baking soda
may be added to the water in which the
fryings are boiled. This shortening may
be used for making spice cake with
fruit and nuts.

AS the guests seated themselves,
Fraunces appeared with the frst dish.
He wore a snow-white apron, q silk
shirt and silk stockings, and his chair
in full powder"
When the seat of government was
taken from New York TO Philadelphia,
FTaunces did not go along. Apparently
he was the unwilling party, for the
President seems to have favored his re-
tention. In q correspondence with his
secretary, Mr.. Lear. over the hiring Of
butler and cook for the Philadelphia
residence, he said:
1T Is an advantage in favor of
FraunceS that he Is an excellent cook,
knowing how to provide genteel dinners,
and giving aid in dressing them, pre-
pairing the dessert, making the cake,
etc.
Lear made his own decision. He
engaged q Mr.. and Mrs. Hyde to look

Washington Rebuked Samuel Fraunces for Serving Three
Dollar Shad.
BY J. r. GLASS.

The first of the long succession of
chefs that have served the Presidents
Of the United States was Samuel
Fraunces. formerly q tavernkeeper in
New York.
1t was at Fraunces' Tavern that the
historic event, Washington's farewell to
his officers, took place. When the
general came back to New York as
President he engaged the owner of the
tavern as his steward. But with this
office he combined the duties OF maitre
d'hotel and cook, although there was
q chief cOok-a certain HerculeS-WhO
operated under him.
A joking remark regarding Hercules
has been preserved. Dinner was served
at o'clock. When the clock struck
the hour 1t used to be said, THE Ia
bOrs Of Hercules have ceased"
We have WaShington'S own testi-
mony that FraunceS well understood
the preparation, of q fine dinner, but
we doubt If Fraunces regarded Wash
ington as an ideal master. The tastes
of the general were too simple to satisfy
the ambitions of an imaginative artist.
Soon after he assumed his post,
Fraunces, knowing the Presidents
Partially for fish, served very fine
early shad.
Washington looked at 1t obviously.
How much did it coSt?" he asked.
'Three dollars" stammered Fraunces
Take 1t away, take it away, SIR"
exclaimed Washington. ut shall never
be said that my table sets such an ex-
ample of luxury and extravaganza"
Having set his dining hour for 4
O'Clock, the President adhered to it
rigidly. His rule was to allow five
minutes for possible variations in the
clocks and watches of his guests. Then
he went to the table, no matter what
important person might be missing.
If tagging members of Congress came
in after every one else was seated at
table, Washington said. o bit sternly,
Gentlemen. we are too punctual for
you. have o cook who never asks

Straight Talks to Women About Money
BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN.

A woman who was once In the throes
Of severe adversely told me that every
one should be broke" once in life. 1t
Is the best, If not the most painless,
way OF learning the value of money.
With only a few dollars in the world a
woman learns for the first time just
what a few dollars will do.
Unless the broke woman is penni-
less there is still hope II she will spend
what remains to her with the most
meticulous care. The bare necessaries
Of life do not cost much, and they will
sustain life until fortune turns.
IL Is worth every Woman's while to
pretend for a day that she is broke. +"
For one thing II such fate should ever
Overtake her she will not be terrified.
For another thing she will learn lesson
without experiencing the real condition.
When even pennies matter we walk
when otherwise we would ride We will
go blocks out OF our way to save a few
cents. We do without many things
which, under other circumstances
would have been construed as necessary.
We learn to get entertainment reading
material and education for nothing.
instead OF lndulglng every Whlm for
trff1es. sweets and doo-dadS we restrain
our impulses and develop real honeSt-to-
goodness will power. We begin to meas
ure things by their real value in life,
not by the degree with which we desire
them. Often for the first time in our
existence we see things as they are &C
tually In place OF how they have ap-
peared to us.
We who have never counted change
at the store before, or watched scales.
or examined market purchases, do so
with q real and avid interest. Every
cent that Is spent means that much
less In light purse, and we throw out
our financial ballast with care.
There Is another side to the "poor-
for-a-day" experience. We are enabled
to appreciate many of the good things
OF life which hitherto we took for
granted. Those of us who know about
the condition Of the poor in q second

Don't scald your refrigerator out with
boiling water, and then put the food
back in 1t. You should scald all de-
tachable parts of the refrigerator in the
kitchen sink. allowing them to cool and
dry thoroughly before putting back in
the refrigerator. Do not pour boiling
hot water into the refrigerator, but
wash of the inside with hot soap sudS,
rinSing of after with clean cloth wrung
out of hot water.
Don't keep anything like charcoal in
your refrigerator to absorb bad odors.
There should never be any odors in the
refrigerator, and If there are there Is a
good reason for it. Get to the root of
the matter and throw away the charcoal.
