CHICKEN A FAVORITE DISH
Most Appetizing Dainty When Cooked
En Casserole
The' charm of cooking en casserole
is in the delicious blending of flavors
that it' accomplishes And one can
have meat as well as vegetables all
from the same dish and with equally
good flavor Perhaps the most popu-
lar casserole dish is chicken To pre-
pare this the chicken should be washed
and wiped very carefully and thor-
oughly then buttered all over and
dipped In flour The chicken is then
laid in the bottom of a good sized cas-
serole and two cups of soup stock are
added If vegetables are desired with
it a dozen small onions are put in
whole with a couple of large potatoes
cut into about two dozen small balls
one carrot cut into fancy shapes two
handfuls of string beans two stalks of
celery a clove of garlic whole salt and
pepper a sprig of parsley and one
turnip cut into fancy shapes All these
are laid around the chicken and the
casserole is then put in the oven to
stay for an hour and a quarter If the
vegetables are young and fresh then it
is best to put them in after the chick-
en has cooked for 20 minutes But if
they are old then they can be started
when the chicken is and both will be
come tender and done at the Bame
time

The Peaceful Joy of the River
An ingenious Spaniard says that
"rivers and the inhabitants of the wa-
tery element were made for wise men
to contemplate and fools to pass by
without consideration” And though
I will not rank myself in the number
of the first yet give me leave to free
myself from the last by offering to
you a short contemplation first of riv-
ers and then of fi§h concerning
which I doubt not but to' give you
many observations tbat will appear
very considerable lam sure they have
appeared so to me and made many an
hour pass away more pleasantly as I
have sat quietly on a flowery bank by
a calm river — Isaac Walton

FOUND OUT
A Trained Nurse Made Discovery
No one is In better position to know
the value of food and drink than a
trained nurse
Speaking of coffee a nurse of Wilkes
Barre Pa writes: “I used to drink
strong coffee myself and suffered
greatly from headaches and Indiges-
tion While on a visit to my brothers
I had a good chance to try Postum
Food Coffee for they drank it alto-
gether in place of ordinary coffee In
two weeks after using Postum I found
I wasmuch benefited and finally my
headaches disappeared and also the
indigestion
“Naturally I have since used Postum
among my patients and have noticed
a marked benefit where coffee has been
left off and Postum used
“I observed a curious fact about
Postum when used among mothers It
greatly helps the flow of milk in cases
where oofree is Inclined to dry It up
and where tea causes nervousness
“I find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly They most
always serve it before it has been
boiled long enough It should be boiled
15 to 20 minutes after boiling begins
and served with cream when it is cer-
tainly a delicious beverage” Read
