WE hear SO many housewives
" say that they simply can't
cook bacon" that perhaps a few
f suggestions regarding the various
ways and methods of cooking this
popular breakfast dish may be
welcome.
There are three methods of
cooking bacon on a gas range
pan broiling. broiling under the
dame and oven cookery. In all
the methods, one essential factor
IS the same-cold bacon and cold
cooking utensil.
To pan broil bacon. put the
slices in a cold iron frying pan
over a low heat and keep the fat
below the smoking temperature
during the whole cooking process.
Turn slices frequently and drain
off the excess fat occasionally.
Keeping the temperature low pre-
vents the kitchen from becoming
filled with smoke and furthermore
gives the cooked bacon a mild,
pleasant flavor. When the slices
are a light even brown. thorough,
~ cooked and crisped. remove to
hot platter 1t will take u to 10
minutes to cook bacon this way,
depending on the thickness of the
slices
Cooking Methods Varied
Straight broiling under a flame
dispenses with the necessity of
draining off the excess fat since it
naturally drops. into the broiler
and pan. Frequent turning is ad-
yisable. Put cold bacon on a cold
broiler and place broiler about
four inches below fame Turn
the flame as it would be needed
for a moderately slow oven Take
care that the fat in the broiler
pan does not become overheated
and smoke.
To cook bacon in the oven.
place slices in a cold dripping pan
and put in the center of the oven
top, bottom and sides. The oven
should be hot. If a rack is not |
used in the dripping pan. turn the !

New Metal Detector to Be
Tried by Expedition.

Washington.-The elusive caches of
pirate gold on Cocos island that have
defied maps and diggings of fortune
hunters for more than century, now
must dodge the delicate instruments
of science. An expedition now on the
island is reported pinning its hopes
on a newly developed metal detector.
"Cocos island. which is 16 square
miles of lofty, forestcovered noun
tains and furrowed valleys. owes it's
fame to the activities of pirates along
the coasts of Central and South Amer
<ica from the Seventeenth to the early
part of the last century," says bull
ketin from the National Geographic
society.
after Capt. Edward Davis looted
Leon, Nicaragua in 1855, he sailed for
Cocos, buried his treasure and rested
until his next plundering expedition.
In the early eighties, Benito, former
Portuguese naval officer who was
scourge to shipping in the Caribbean,
felt that his old bailiwick was becom-
ing too well policed for his profession,
rounded the Horn, preyed upon towns
and shipping along the Pacific coast
and sought refuge on Cocos. He also
buried treasure on the island before
he and his crew were captured.
{ Loot Of Lima Magnet.
"Loots of other pirates have been
reported buried on Cocos, but the ia
nous loot of Lima, perhaps, is the
chief magnet of modern expeditions to
the island. Gold and silver and prec-
ious stones worth millions that were
accumulated by the Spaniards from
! the natives and from richly adorned
Inca temples, were boarded in Lima
when revolution broke.
"The Lima mint was filled with gold
and silver and the Lima cathedral was
a vault of wealth. The cathedral
chalices were solid gold, studded with
priceless gems. Golden affairs equip
ment glistened in the dim light of the
edifice. Diamond-studded vestments
beamed with new radiance with ev-
cry movement of the priests who wore
them. There were chasubles of gold
adorned with rows of diamonds, ru-
bies, emeralds and sapphires
Fearing seizure of these treasures
by the revolutionists, Lima city fa-
theirs sought ship as hiding place.
