VARIOUS GOOD THINGS

Planning three meals a day three
hundred and sixty-five days year, is
no small task, yet one borne by mil
lions of housewives. Then with the
planning is the cooking and clearing
away after each meal; even this is not
so hard as the effort TO keep within
the budget as to expense of food, and
Not all women are born housekeep-
ers and cooks, any more than all men
are capable bank presidents or mer-
chants, and there should be less ex-
pected from those who have different
tastes as to their vocation. The aver.
age woman with the average mind
can, with study, make creditable
housewife, but If her taste does not
lean in that direction it is uphill work
and she should be more often COM
mended than condemned. Here are
some suggestions for helping along the
good work:
Baked Tomatoes.-Cut thin slice
from the stem end of ripe tomatoes
and remove part of the pulp. Sprinkle
the inside of the tomato with salt and
add four Tablespoonful of chopped
celery, one tablespoonful Of tapioca
one teaspoonful of onion finely
chopped, two tablespoonful of grated
cheese, three-fourths of teaspoonful
of salt and dash of pepper. with the
chopped pull. Refill the tomatoes and
place casserole. Bake in mod
crate oven thirty minutes.
Shrimp and Celery Chowder.-Add
two tablespoonful of tapioca to three
cupfuls of scalded milk. three-fourths
of a teaspoonful Of salt, two bouillon

Black Locust Has Many Uses

Black locust is a four-purpose tree,
says the United States forest serv-

for posts and other uses; it roots
strongly, thereby checking soil ero.

good quality of honey; and it is a
legume. The nodules on it's roots
store nitrogen in the soil, enrtching
it for future crops. In addition, it
is tree of beauty and is valuable

How could this grave, feminine girl, who ap- peared so honest and so shy be at the source of all that Lola had glowingly reported? If he could only believe her interpretation of the gossip. But no. It was her ability to make people believe that had misled him in the beginning and had no doubt fooled this Bry- son person and the Marquis. Venice suddenly turned. Their eyes met and chung.
