60 walk where the blossoms are sweet-
est
And forests grow pungcntly green.
Where song birds are singing and
grasses are springing
The wood and the wheat fields be-
tween. *
For autumn Is time of fulfilling
And summer Is season of mirth.
But dainty and charming, all critics
disarming.
The spring Is the bride of the earth.
COMPANY DI8HE8.
As a first course for luncheon there
Is nothing more appreciated than:
8alpicon of Fruit.—
Remove the skins from
half a pound of white
grapes and take out the
seeds after cutting the
grapes in halves. Cut
■r>v _ three oranges and three
1 1 grapefruits in halves and
take out the pulp in sec-
tions, bruising as little as possible.
Add the Juice and mix lightly. Set
aside and sprinkle with sugar; when
chilled and ready to serve arrange in
ten glasses with a sprinkling of sugar
over each glass of fruit.
Larded Beef Tenderloin With Ba-
nanas.—Cut the salt pork for larding
from the portion next the rind. Re-
move the rind, cut in slices a fourth
of an inch thick and a fourth of an
inch wide as long as can be cut. Chill
the lardons in water before threading
larding needle, insert about a fourth
of an inch below the surface and draw
thread through, tying in a loose knot.
Put the lardons in rows and dredge
the meat with flour. Sear in a hot fry-
ing pan until well browned. Then
cook slowly until done, basting occa-
sionally. Surround with small cooked
bananas and serve with:
Polvrade Sauce.—Put two table-
spoonfuls of the trimmings of the salt
pork into a saucepan and let the fat
try out. Add two slices of onion, five
of carrot, two sprigs of parsley, a
quarter of a bay leaf, a slice of green
pppper and half a chili pepper; cook
until all are softened, drain off the
fat, add a fourth of a capful of vine-
gar and let simmer on the back part
of the stove until the vinegar is re-
duced to half. To the fat add enough
butter to make four tablespoonfuls,
add the same amount of flour and
cook until smooth, then add a cup-
ful and a half of brown stock, the veg-
etables and the vinegar, boil once,
then strain over a half cupful of sul-
tana raisins cooked in boiling water
until tender; finish with three table-
spoonfuls of currant Jelly and orange
juice.
This world's a pretty good sort of a
place.
Taking It all together:
In spite of the grief and sorrow we
meet.
Ig spite of the gloomy weather.
There are friends to love, and hopes
to cheer
And plenty of compensation
For every ache, of those who make
The best of the situation.

Softly the evening came. The sun
from the western horizon
Like a magician extended his golden
wand o'er the landscape.
Twinkling vapors arose; and sky and
water and forest
Seemed all on fire at the touch, and
melted and mingled together.
—Evangeline.
SOME GOOD COOKING.
Macaroni In various combinations
is a most palatable and nutritious dish.
Break up half a pound of
macaroni and cook in
three quarts of boiling
water. Drain and add
a tablespoonful of onion
juice, two cupfuls of cold
boiled ham and a rich
sauce made of a cupful of
milk and two table-
each of butter and flour,
butter and flour together,
add the milk, season well with salt
and red pepper and put all in layers
in a buttered baking dish. Bake until
well heated.
Spiced Tongue.—Take a fresh calf’s
tongue, put it into boiling water and
let It simmer for two hours. When It
Is done the skin will peel oft. Put
four tablespoonfuls of butter in a
saucepan and when boiling hot, add
a cupful of small onions, one red pep-
per, 1% teaspoonfuls of salt and a
tablespoonful of vinegar, two small
carrots, one-half pound each of (fates
and raisins, all chopped, then ad«j a
pint of the liquor in which the tongue
was cooked and simmer for one hour.
Remove the tongue, thicken the sauce
and pour it over the tongue.
Fig Tapioca.—Soak two-thirds of a
cupful of taploea in three cupfuls of
cold water over night. In the morn-
ing add a half cupful of brown sugar,
two-thirds of a cupful of diced figs
and the sapie amount of walnut meats,
with a teaspoonful of vanilla; steani
for one hour before adding the va
nlllo. Chill and serve with sweet-
ened whipped cream.
Hickories.—Take a cupful of light
brown sugar, two eggs, a little salt,
a cupful of flour, two tonspoonfuls of
baking powder, a cupful of hickory
nut meats and milk to make a soft
mixture to drop from the spoon. Bake
In a moderate oven.
THE CHILD’S LUNCHEON.
A large percentage of mothers’- all
over the land have the ever-present
lunch-box problem to
solve each day. Some-
where an ingenious moth
er who had four other
friends, each with a child
to send with a lunch bas-
ket, proposed that once
a week each prepare a
basket lunch for the five,
in this way saving the daily task for
each. The mothers could do with
pleasure once a week what was such
a bugbear in its frequency. The moth-
er knows that her child's mentality
as well as his physical power depends
upon his food largely and the grow-
ing child should have nourishing,
plain, wholesome and easily digested
food.
The child naturally craves sweets
and they should be given in moderate
amount, as they are necessary to fur-
nish fuel. Sweets should be given
at the close of the meal so that they
may not clog the taste for the substan-
tial things as they do if given before
or at the beginning .of a meal.
Another Important point to remem-
ber tyith children is that their diges-
tive processes are much more rapid
than with adults, and they need a
good, substantial lunch.
Eggs cooked hard and well seasoned
make a most satisfactory sandwich
filling. Thin slices of meat between
well-spread slices of bread. The sand-
wich is an Important factor, and should
have first place. Bottles now may be
bought at a small price which will
hold a hot drink or soup, cocoa and
milk being the drinks best for the
child.
Fresh fruit, an apple or an orange,
a cake of sweet chocolate or a few
pieces of good candy make a well-
enjoyed finish to a meal. The child
loves a surprise, will eat with relish
and digest a meal much better if it
is something that comes as a surprise.
Cup custards are most delicious des-
serts, rice with custard and raisins
make another simple and tasty one.
Reading Is to the mind, what exer-
cise Is to the body. As by one, health
Is preserved, strengthened and Invigo-
rated; by the other, virtue (which Is
.the health of the mind) Is kept a five,
cherished and confirmed.—Addison.
FAVORITE DISHES OF OTHER NA-
TIONS.
As America Is made up of all nation-
alities a few dishes which speak of
the motherland will be
pleasant reminders.
Cock-a-leekie. — Chop
two pounds of veal and
put to soak in a gallon
and a half of cold water
for an hour. Heat slow-
ly and simmer until the
liquor is rich. Pour this
over a roasting capon or
fowl and cook five min-
utes. Remove the fowl, bone it, chop
fine and return to the pan. Add a pint
of leeks, season and cook until the
leeks are tender.
Spanish Macaroni.—Fry onions in a
bit of butter and olive oil until
brown, add a tablespoonful of Worces-
tershire sauce and a teaspoonful of
chill powder. Put a half cupful of
macaroni into boiling water, salted,
and cook until tender, about twenty-
five minutes. Place the druined maca-
roni in a buttered baking dish and
pour the onions and half a can of
tomatoes over it. Mix well and sprin-
kle with grated cheese. Bake a half
hour in a moderate oven.
English Stuffed Ham.—Select a
freah-cured ham and have the bone
removed. Fill with a stuffing made of
bread crumbs, parsley, green pepper,
chopped, and seasonings of salt and
pepper, with butter to make the right
richness. Tie up securely and inclose
the ham in a paste of flour and water
to keep the Juices from escaping. Tie
in a cloth and put into a pot of boiling
water and Blmmer gently for two or
three hours, allowing twenty minutes
for each pound weight. After the
ham is cooked remove the crust, pare
off the skin carefully, so as not to In-
jure the shape of the ham, put into a
roasting pan, sprinkle with crumbs,
and roaBt, allowing six minutes to the
pound.

LIVED EIGHT YEARS
ON CRACKERS
Kat# Stlferman of Oklahoma City Re-
atored After Long Period
of Suffering.
Kate Stlferman of Capitol Hill, Okla-
homa City, liVed on crackere for eight
years. She was a sufferer from chronic
stomach troubles.
She got a bottle of Mayr’s Wonder-
ful Remedy. The result of the treat-
ment, she declares, was marvelous.
She wrote:
"One bottle of your remedy cured
me of my stomach troubles. I can
now eat anything that I want to with
good results, after living on crack-
ers for eight years—and at times I
could not even eat them. I have three
sisters affected the same way and 1
want to surprise them by the way I
can eat now.”
Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach, liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like. No more distress
after eating, pressure of gas in the
stomach and around the heart. Get one
bottle of your druggist now and try it
on an absolute guarantee—if not satis-
factory money will be returned.—Adv.

CUTICURA SOAP BATHS
Youths Who Thought to Have Fun
With Him Got Decidedly the
Worst of the Transaction.
There is more than one way of mak-
ing a retort without resorting to the
vulgar "You’re another.”
A Jewish street-vender of spectacles
was offering his wares when half a
dozen saucy fellows stepped up.
"Keep still; we’ll have some fun
with him,” said the spokesman of the
party.
“Shpectacles! Good vons!” called
the vender.
“Dot vos goot," said the young man.
“Now, what can you see through these
glasses, Mr. Moses?"
“Anything vot you like," was the
reply.
“Ish dot so? Well, we’ll see about
that.” lie took a pair of spectacles,
put them on, and looked straight at
the dealer. “Nonsense, Mr. Moses!”
he exclaimed. "What have you been
telling us? Nothing whatever can be
seen through these glasses but black-
guards,” whereupon ills companions
laughed.
"Vot? Ish dot so?” exclaimed the
vender, ns If in alarm. He took the
glasses, put them on hastily, and
looked at the party. “My goodness!”
he exclaimed, "dot Ish so.” The party
moved on, but this time they were not ^
laughing.

American Milk Bottles to Britain.
in reference to our recent paragraph
on the shortage in milk bottles due to j
the supply having in the past been
drawn from Austria, we are informed
by a firm in the trade that this diffi-
culty is now being overcome. It is
possible to secure bottles from Amer-
ica, of equal quality and at the same
price as the Austrian product. We are
glad to hear that the Austrian source
of supply can be dispensed with with-
out inconvenience, but we should be
still more glad to hear that the de-
mand could be met by British makers,
in this connection we are Informed
that English bottles are to be obtained,
"but at a rise of 20 per cent and of an
inferior quality.”—London Globe.
This Happened in Boston.
"Cynthia, will you recite, ‘Mary Had
a Little Lamb’ for us?” asked the
kind old gentleman.
“I do not care to, much as I should
like to oblige you,” replied the little
girl with the horn rimmed eyeglasses.
"As a matter of fact, the poem has lit-
tle, if any, literary value, and in addi-
tion is not true to life as it exists to-
day. Under the constriction in trade,
due to the meat trust, Mury could not
own an entire lamb. She might have
had a chop, but beyond that the poet's
imagination must be blamed.”—Phil-
adelphia Public Ledger.

The reasons for
Certain-teed Roofing
Every buyer needs the proper assur-
ance, when he pay* for the best
quality, that a second or third quality
will not be delivered. The market
is flooded with too many brands.
Some manufacturers with poor facil-
ities too often meet competition by
cutting quality. Some wholesalers
buy any old quality, put their labels on it, and
say it is the best. Our Certain-teed label is backed by the
written guarantee of the world's largest manufacturer of
asphalt roofings. It gives each buyer the assurance wanted,
and our unequalled facilities for manufacturing enable us to
sell it at a very reasonable price.
These are the reasons for
Certain-teed
Roofing
We invite every one Interested to come to our mills and see how we make the
goods. Wc know that our Crrtain-tfd Roofing is the best quality that we can
make. It’s the best quality that can be made to last and remain waterproof on the
roof. It is made with that one purpose in view. We also make cheap gnuie,
poor quality roofings to meet the demand for very temporary roofs, out the
Cmrtain-tm»d label goes only on our best quality, longest life product. It is the
grade which carries our Company name and endorsement and guarantee—1-ply
5 years, 2-ply 10 years, 3-ply 15 years.
If you want the right quality and want to he sure you are getting whet yon
on the Ctrtain-t—d label. The price I* reasonable. Noone can tell the quail
roofing; by looking at It. The man Is not living who can lake three kindsof roofingol
t qualities and tell with any degree of accuracy the length of time each one will but oe the
------------------pay for. Insist
_ Noone can tell the quality of a piece of
lug at it. The man is not living who can take three kind.of roofing of dlffer-
roof. He cannot tell their relative values by
looking at them. Why take the chance of
guessing, when you can get the safest guar-
antee on the best quality goods at a reason-
able price.
If for any reason you do not care for the high-
est quality—If you want a temporary roof, we
also make goods sold at the loweat price on
the market, because we have unequalled fa-
cilities,and are mailing approximately a third
of the entire asphalt roofing and building
papers of the whole world’s supply. Our
facilities enable us to bent all competition on
price goods as well as on Cartain-tmttl quality.
The difference between the total cost of the
goods, the freight, the laying, etc., between
quality goods and price goods Ta insignificant.
It is much better policy to cut out the guessing
apd let the manufacturer of real responsibility
Insure you on all the vital points, lie knows
what he puts Into the goods and what they
will do—you can then insist upon getting
everything as represented.
