Household Methods
One Of our readers asks about basting

one Of our readers asks about basting
meat.
Roast meats are greatly improved by
frequent basting.
A cook wen known for her success
in cooking roasts says that when you
roast lamb you should always have some
melted fat ready for basting. other
cooks use hot water and butter. Still
others use the drippings in the pan
augmented merely by hot water.
It is never well to use cold water for
basting any roasting meat. Indeed, the
water used should be boiling hot. Cold
water retardS the roasting process and
impairs the quality of the finished
roast.
To haste properly, you should have
q large, long handled spoon. am con-
vinced that the reason many cooks con-
vince themselves that frequent basting
Is not necessary is that they hate to
do It. With a long-handled spoon that
can be thrust into the oven easily, there
is no danger of burning the hands and
no risk even of being uncomfoFtably
hot when you are basting the meat.
Have big and soft and thick cloth
to move the pan with and to hold it
while basting. This is important, as
It keeps the hands from burning or
being uncomfortable.
II YOU use a double rooster, the top
should not be applied for the first 20
minutes or half hour, and the meat
should be basted q couple of times in
that period. After the top is applied
basting is not necessary, Is the roast
steams itself.

A Sermon for Today
"PsrYerse pisputings. "
nY INV. JoHN D. aUNN.

"Perverse disputings from such
withdraw thyself"-l Tim, Wis.
Elsewhere Paul urges us to contend
earnestly for the faith. But here ne
werns us to stay Clear OF perverse diS-
putings. Men who engage in sucn
disputings are destitute Of the truth :
they are but ignorantly "doting anont
questions and strifes of words. wnereoi
cometh envy, strife, ratings, eVh sur
Musings"
we wonder IL much Of the religious
controversy we hear today Is not some
thing like the thing Paul describes nereF
Certainly some Of our religious dispute
ers would do well to ponder over these
words Of the apostle. And along WITH
these words I would like to commend
to them two quotations I recently ran
across. One of them Is from an olo
classic by Isaac Barrow, Newton's Ia
nous preceptor. avoid controversy, ne
writes. THE truth contended Tor Is not
worth the passion expended upon IL.
The benefits OF the victory DO not atone
for the prejudices aroused IN the com com,
bat. Goodness and virtue may oIten
consist with Ignorance and error, sell
dom with strife and discord.
The other is from Richard Baxter,
one Of the most luminous writer's on
religious subjects in former Gays. ne
says: Another fatal hindrance to
heavenly walk and conversation Is our
too frequent disputes. A disputatlous
spirit is a sure sign Of an unsancti1leo
spirit. They are usually men least &C
quainted with the heavenly lie VINO
are the most violent disputerS about
the circunlstantiality Of religion. yea,
though you were sure that your opinions
were true, yet when the chtefest OF your
zeal is turned to these things. the lie
Of grace soon decays within. The least
controverted truths are usually the most
weighty and of most necessary ana
frequent use TO our souls."
It is not contended that there may
not be justifiable controversy. But con-
troversy seldom convinceS anybody.
More often It awakenS antipathy. and
throws a cloud Of prejudice and passion
over reason No two people can ever see
the same truth from the same angle
at the same moment. Hence even
good men will often have disagreementS.
Disbursements In themselves are not
necessary evils. Where opinions only
are involved, 1t is wiser to give and take.
One of the finest of the fine arts Is to
be able to dissent gracefully. At any
rate, let uS beware OF "pervefse
disputings."

FOOD PROBLEMS
Bacon Kept Cold.

Bacon should always be kept In the
refrigerator and should not become
moist. For this reason the package
containing bacon should never be
placed next to the ice.
Usually q pound Of choice package
bacon, ready sliced, goes farther than
q pound OF uncut bacon because It
is dtdicult to cut, It at home as thin
as it can be cut by machinery ct the
packing houses.
If you must cut your own bacon be
sure that your knife is very sharp. The
bacon should be taken from the re-
fEigerator very cold and cut at once
II you try to cut 1t when it is not
chilled you win ind 1t much more
difficult.
Do not start frying bacca until you
can give it your undivided attention.
Bacon will not fry itself, but must be
watched constantly TO see that each
piece it done evenly. As the pieces
are done to q turn they should be
lifted from the frying pan and placed
on the platter or serving dish in q
warm place They should not be left
to soak in the grease in the frying pan.
Some cooks have success cooking
bacon in the oven. It does not need
such constant watching. but It cannot
even then be left TO do itself.
