Baked Stuffed Fish.

Bone 11a pounds Of fish and rub
with lemon rind. Mix two ears Of
corn or one cupful of canned corn
with half a cupful Of butter, one egg,
one bell pepper chopped, half a cupful
Of bread crumbs, one teaspoonful Of
salt, half cupful Of chopped celery.
and the juice of one lemon. Beat
all well in a mixing bowl. Stuff the
mixture into the fish, then sew or pin
with toothpicks. Lay the fish on a
broiler and dust lightly with cornmeal
or fine bread crumbs. Basic often
with q little water while baking, to
prevent the butter and juices from
burning. Bake moderately about rs
minutes. This makes o lovely platter

softly to herself. announced that the
hand played at table No. would now
be played by table No. 2. Amid shrieks
of feminine laughter, she elaborated
her plan. East and West were to play
the hand at the contract at which
North and South had originally played
it; in this case, six no trumps, doubled.
"I won't tell you the bidding" she
said, frowning prettily at North. THAT
will be your handicap"
North, after studying her hand
thoughtfully, opened the king Of dia-
monds. Result: East and West made
seven no trumps doubled.
Well, you should have heard the
comments. The hand was oh-ed and
ah-ed over for at least 10 minutes. The
hostess didn't join in, however. She
was studying memorandum prepara-
tory to announcing that the next hand
was to be played at three no trumps,
redoubled, by the side that obtained
the contract.

quarts Of water and simmer while
covered for about four hours, stirring
occasionally. Rub all through q
strainer, season with q teaspoonful of
salt, q little pepper, one-fourth tea
spoonful Of paprika and little cay
enne pepper. Thin with about one
cupful of cream or stock, let boil up
and thicken, to keep from settling,
with one tablespoonful each of butter
and -four cooked together.
Old-fasnioned Bean Soup.-Soak
one cupful Of pea beans overnight. In
the morning put on to cook In two
quarts Of cold water, together with
half q pound of salt pork ground
coarsely, one tablespoonful Of minced
onion, one teaspoonful Of salt and one
fourth teaspoonful of pepper. Bring to
a slow boil and cook for one and one
half hours, when the beans will be
tender but not mushy. Serve with
toasted salt waters.
Dinner Soups.-These must not be
satisfying, or they will take the edge
OF the dinner course. Consommes and
bouillons, which, by the way, can be
bought either In the dry pressed cube
or IN the liquid state, are always de-
sirable dinner soups. Serve them with
paper-thin lemon slices floating on
the surface and salt waters or crack
ers that have been brushed very
lightly with soft butter, then put into
a hot oven until very lightly Drowned
A soft pretzel that is put up in pack
ages is very good with clear and thin
soups.
Canned Soups.
BY blending various canned soups
you will achieve a repertory of havors
and consistencies suitable to the time
of the day and the nature Of the rest
Of the meal. Soup has an active
social life. A puree for luncheon, q
consomme or bouillon, or any of the
possible combinations, for dinner, OF
course. But for the afternoon recep-
ton, and for the late supper after
cards and dancing, soup has its own
welcome and warming message.
Very tasty is the mixture Of equal
parts Of canned chicken broth with
tomato juice or tomato Juice cocktail
Flavor with salt and pepper and add
one tablespoonful of cooked rice
Cover and simmer for about 10 min
utes. Thin noodles may be used in
stead Of the rice. The chicken aSpic
that comes around whole canned
chicken makes a remarkable addition
to this soup.
Two-can Soup. For family Of
four, open can Of condensed green
pea soup one night and a can OF
tomato soup the next night, reservine
one-third Of each, and thinning that
used according to directions. The
third night combine the two left-overs
in a double boiler with an equal guam
tity or more Of hot milk, thicken very
/ slightly, to prevent settling, with 9
teaspoonful each Of butter and foul
cooked together. Season rather high
ly, according to taste, also adding
teaspoonful Of sugar. Whip with ar
egg beater. and top each serving with
whipped cream.
Fish Chowder.
1t has been said that not every ont
can make a chowder, but at least
every one can learn how to make one
and with little difficulty, for it Is ar
easy dish to prepare. There is really
no rigid recipe for chowder.
Fresh-fiSh Chowder.-Fish fresh
from the sea and clans newly dug
make the best chowders. When pre-.
pairing a fish chowder first remove
pounds of fish from the bones
and cut it in small chunks. Their
cover the bones and skin with colo

Tree Drama
BY ID. C. PEATTK.


A T FIRST thought many people md
1t sad that, in Autumn, the great
majority Of our trees shed their leaves.
There Is, indeed, something terribly
sad about European Autumns, which
are inclined to be rainy and damp, in
stead of bracing, and where the trees
t,nn, mostly, only to dun shades
browns and yellows and dull reds, at
best. How much nicer it would be to
live in a climate where the leaves
never fall
But have you ever done so? Moth
ing is so monotonous as evergreen
vegetation, whether it be the needle
leaved, somber evergreens Of the Far
North, or the broad-leayed evergreens
Of the tropics and subtropics.
This is land where Autumn never
comes, where the trees have no drama,
other than Towering and fruiting,
where you can never enjoy the rebirth
of life, because nothing ever properly
dies! I am being q bit unjust, Of
course; the tropics do have two sea-
sons, wet and a dry, and the be-
ginnings Of both bring distinct sense
of change.
Some tropical trees shed their leaves
In the dry season. often Towering on
the naked boughs. And in the Far
