ARTISTRY IN COOKERY

THE cook who really enjoys
l. mixing ingredients as painter
does his colOrS will find no limit to
the delightful dishes which one may
originate or enlarge upon with the
materials at hand. One must fol
low a few fundamental principles
in cookery, and after that let the
imagination soar, for there is no
end to inspiration.
After some experience with han
ding foods, most tOOths0me dishes
may be prepared from bits Of left
overs. The cook who wastes moth
ing, but serves her food in a dainty,
appetiZing manner, is a real genius
and her talents are ever in demand.
1t is not always wise to tell all one
knows as to the contents Of dish,
for some conscientious ObjectOrs
will refuse to try a made-over dish,
or rearranged food.
Now, who will dare to call a
steamed pudding leftover? Yet
one may prepare a most tasty one
with few squares Of corn bread,
a cupful Of leftover cocoa. bit of
oatmeal. few raisins and couple
of egg yOlks left from some icing
or dessert.

the people whose hopes and ex-
pectation Of happiness go no fur
ther than "a short life and merry
one" is that their way Of living
may not shorten other lives than
their own, that their pursuit of
pleasure may not drag into its
maelstrom the lives of others who
are bound to them by love, though
their own Ideas Of happiness and
Of the meaning Of life are very diff
ferent.
So much for the prodigals, the
wasters. Their mistake Is in think
ing only Of today. never Of tomor-
row. And no one will again say
that 1t is a mistake
Strange, then, is it not, that there
should be people of the opposite
turn of mind, those who think only
Of the future and not at all Of to-
day, who are just as far off the
track that leads to satisfaction and
happiness.
l am thinking of the people who
are so preoccupied with their aims
for the future that they forget that
life is lived day by day. The man
whose efforts to amass wealth leave
him no time or thought to make
| friends with his family, is, of
course, a familiar example. But
there are others. There Is the
mother so occupied with thoughts
of her children's future, Of what
she wants them to become, that she
misses the pleasures Of living with
them through their childhood stages.
There are children who allow their
ambition, their work and study
which in future is to bring their
parents Joy, to absorb them so that
they become as strangers to those
parents.

BEDTIME STORY
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

to get one and, hope, both of them

Now when you come to think of
it, it would have been a far greater
shame for the hunter to have killed
Mr.. and Mrs. Quack than for Reddy
Fox to have done so. Reddy was
hunting them because he was hun
CRY. The hunter would have shot
them for sport. He didn't need
them. He had plenty of other food.
Reddy Fox never kills just for the
pleasure of killing.
So the hunter continued to sit in
his hiding place with very friendly,
feelings for Sammy Jay. Sammy
watched Reddy Fox disappear and
then flew over to that side of the
pond where the hunter was. Mr..
and Mrs. Quack called their thanks
to Sammy, to which he replied that
he had done no more for them than
he would do for anybody, or
lHdn llcy WUulu nave uOuc LOr Hill.
For some time Sammy sat quietly
in the top of the tree, but all the
time his sharp eyes were very busy.
BY and by, he spied the hunter sit
ting on the log. At first he couldn't
make out Just what it was he was
looking at. 1t didn't move, never
theless Sammy was suspicious.
Presently, he flew over to a tree
where he could see better. Right
away he spied the terrible gun and
he knew just what it was.
Once more he began to yell,
thief! Thief! Thiefw at the top
of his lungs. 1t was then that the
hunter lost his temper. He knew
that, now he had been discovered
by Sammy Jay. it was useless to
remain there. He was angry clear
through. He no longer had friend
ly feeling for Sammy Jay.

Fox. At once he had begun to
scream at the top Of his lungs,
''Thief! Thief! Theft" Mr.. and
Mrs. Quack had understood him
perfectly. They swan out to the
middle Of the pond while Reddy
Fox, knowing that 1t was useless
to stay longer with Sammy Jay
about. had snarled angrily and then
taken himself off through the Green
Forest.
The hunter thought 1t a great
Joke on Reddy. To tell the truth,
he was very much pleased. He
wanted those Ducks himself. He
suspected that they would stay in
that pond for some days, and he
planned to return there and shoot
them after he had got Lightfoot
the Deer He wanted to get Light
foot first, and he knew that to shoot
at anything else might spoil his
chance of getting a shot at Light
foot.
Sammy Jay did me a good turn"
thought the hunter, although he
doesn't know it. Reddy Fox GER
tainly would have caught one of
those Ducks had Sammy not come
along just when he did. 1t would
have been shame to have one of
them caught by that fox. l mean
