COrnStarch Pudding

Two cups milk, tablespoons
cornstarch, s tablespoons sugar, 4
teaspoon salt, l egg, u teaspoon
vanilla.
Scald IA cups milk in top of
double boiler. When tiny bubbles
appear around the edge of the milk
it is hot enough. Mix cornstarch
and 2 tablespoons sugar with re-
naming cold milk. Stir until per-
fectly smooth. Pour about half the
scalded milk into the cold milk mix
ture, stirring rapidly. Add this to
milk in the double boiler, stirring
constantly. Cook and stir until thick
and smooth.
Remove spoon; cover and cook
over hot water stirring occasionally
for twenty minutes. The water in
the bottom of the double boiler
should be kept boiling.
Beat egg slightly with remaining
sugar and salt and slowly add corn
starch mixture, stirring constantly.
Return to double boiler and cook
one minute, Remove from heat and
let cool a few minutes. Add vanilla
and beat well. Turn into molds
which have been dipped in cold
water and let stand until cold. Then
chill thoroughly before serving.
An intriguing way to serve this
pudding is to put teaspoonful of
sweetened sherry in each sherbet
glass, add the pudding and pour
another teaspoonful of sweetened
sherry over each. Top with whipped
cream.
For children serve the pudding
with sugar and cream, whippecA
cream or sauce such as is served
over ice cream.

Frigidaire's 1884 line consists of
fifteen models divided into four
series, displayed by the William H.
Block Company at the Refrigerator
Show. The line starts with the
standard series that uses less cur
rent than one ordinary eelctric light
bulb.
There are three sizes IN this series
four, five and six CUBIC foot models
each of which uses the Theoretically
sealed type Of compressor unit. They
are finished in duluX, the finest Of

The super series consists of six
models, of four, six, seven, nine,
twelve and fifteen cubic foot capaci-
ties. This series has features to
meet the needs of the class market
1t, too, has the twin cylinder COM

Declared Finest Built
The de luxe series consists of two
models, said by Frigidaire to be the
finest refrigerator ever built.
In designing its various models,
Frigidaire has included convenience
and service features that make each
particular model no matter what its
delivered price, the finest refrigera-
tor available at anywhere near its
cost.
The standard series has dulux

Each machine is capably tested and

Among nourshing, inexpensive
desserts, a perfectly made corn
starch pudding holds close to first
place.
Delicate in texture and favor, 10
is suitable for children and invshds
and should please the most fastidi-
Gus groWn-up.
Now that certain forbidden
favors are made available, desserts
that have been regarded with indif-
ference regain their glamor Tor

There are certain definite ruleT
to guide one in making cornStarcl
buildings, Just as there are in max
ing custards or any other particula
type of dessert.
Thorough cooking and the right
proportion of cornStarch to milk are 4
the secrets of a delicious pudding.
On the market are excellent pre-
pared buildings which require mere
~ the addition of milk, according 10
the directions on the package, to
make delectable desserts.
Eggs Aid Dish
Eggs can be added to most corn-
starch buildings and contribute Al,
pleasing dehcacy as we'll as food
value. If eggs are used, remember
never to add the egg to the hot

starch mixture slowly into ths
beaten egg, stirring constantly.
When thoroughly blended, return ia
double boiler and cook one minute.
The starch mixture must be well
cooked before combining with egg.
A cornstarch pudding should be-
stiff enough to hold its shape when
unmolded but not hard or solid.
It's texture should be perfectly
smooth and tender and its flavor
delicate but not insipid.
The following rule for vanilla
cornstarch pudding can be varied
in several ways. Chocolate always
is popular flavor and can be mada
from the basic rule by adding twoj+
squares of melted chocolate to ths
cornstarch and sugar before ths
scalded milk is poured over it.
Nuts can be added to vanilla or
chocolate pudding.

All Features Found to Be
Efficient Built Into
Unit.

Arrangements Markham made for
a pretentious display of the new
1894 Coldspot Refrigerators at the
Refrigerator show by Sears, Roebuck
e. Co., Alabama street and Massa-
chusetts avenue.
The Coldspot electric refrigerator
employs all the highly advertised
features of other refrigerators in a
price range far below any OF the
same quality of construction and
service.
The outstanding feature of this
fine cooling plant is the Coldspot
unit, which is the secret of the
economy of operation and the long
life. There are only five moving
parts, operating in q sealed bath of
oil
The simplicity of the construction
leaves very few places to wear, and
the friction of these points is so re-
duced by the working in oil that
there is practically no wear at all
in the unit.

Cruelty to Animals

Justify another.
Not only is the killing Of in

houses hideous-forcing them in

arid plains for % and SO hours
without food or water, is
practice inexcusable and barbar.
Gus. Animals should not be
bred for market. Man is not
carniverous naturally, but has
acquired this false appetite.
Meat is not strengthening. Our
strongest animals such as the
OK, the elephant and the horse
are grain eating.

expected to live almost with
out food. There is practically
no grass. Miles of wandering
are required to obtain a mouth
full. And thirst forever tor

Is and 20 miles apart. There
is no shade. The temperature
in summer is 1870. Along the
track the bones of those unable
to make the distance are
whitening in the sun.
In Wyoming and other north
ern States, the suffering of
cattle from exposure is very
terrible. No steer over one
year old is provided any better
shelter from the blizzardS than
a thicket. When the tempera-
ture drops to 20 below zero, the
ranchman mounts his horse
and drives his cattle all night
long to save himself the loss
of frozen beef.
But for fiendish, deliberate
and unparalleled atrocities try
to visit medical laboratories
and serum factories right here!
Then you see cruelty at its
climax. But no one will let
you in. HUMANE.

The special detail went on duty
at 10 a. m. this morning and will
be kept in the downtown section
until after Christmas, Captain
Smith declared.
Eighteen men on foot and six
motorcycle patrolmen make up
the special squad.
Pedestrians Checked
The men will be stationed at
the busy street corners to aid the
regular officer in handling the
crowds. Pedestrians, Captain
Smith announced, will be required
to obey the traffic signals the
same as motorists.

DilatOry Justice

To the Editor of The Times:
Maryland courts are to be con-
graduated on the speed with
which they handled the case Of
q colored man accused OF a
horrible crime.
If all courts would act with
such speed, I believe it would
materially lessen crime. We
have too much dilly-dallying
around. Months and even years
pass in some cases before the
guilty are brought to justice.
We might well take a lesson
from England in settling Grim
