Part 10

Bacon, properly prepared for those who do not engage in heavy manual labor and therefore do not need much of the rich heat producing fat, should be fried to a crisp, until it is to all intents entirely lean. Then it is a dish fit for gods, and for mortals who know what is good. Then there is left the grease, golden brown and delicious. Now the usefulness of bacon only begins.

Hear this! From one pound of breakfast bacon you get one pint of precious bacon grease.

What do with it? That's easy.

Fry eggs in it. You will never again use lard. Even butter is inferior to it.

Season boiled string beans with it. It is a substitute for cooking bacon with them. Two or three tablespoonfuls will give the proper flavor. Use the bacon fat in place of butter or lard.

On a festive occasion Mr. Jones, who is by nature courtesy itself, complimented a middle-aged lady upon her dress, the upper part of which was of black lace. "Nothing," said he, "to my mind is so becoming as black and yellow." "Yellow!" she cried. "Oh, good gracious! That's not my dress, that's _me_!"--_James Payn, in the Independent._

Cardinal Manning visited a Liverpool convent, where an Irishwoman was cook. She begged his blessing, and, when it was given, looked up at his frail figure, and exclaimed, "May the Lord preserve your eminence, and oh, may he forgive your cook!"

Kornlet

_Is the Milk of Sweet Green Corn, Preserved in Cans When Corn is at its Best_

--_Nothing_ makes such delicious puddings, fritters, griddle cakes and soups. Now--to associate Kornlet in your mind with summer green corn--procure nine full ears, the best the market affords; score and press the _milk_ from the kernels as completely as possible. This will be equivalent to one can of Kornlet and may be used successfully for all the dishes we have mentioned. After that, simply remember that when green corn is out of season you can have these same delicious dishes by using Kornlet in the same recipes.

Book of recipes sent free for your grocer's name. During the green corn season, nine ears of corn take the place of one can of Kornlet.

The Evening Game

When daddy holds me on his knee A-playin' Creep-er-Mouse, He walks his fingers up my legs, An' all around my blouse, Nen drives the mouse into its house In underneaf my chin, An' I des laugh an' laugh an' laugh-- An' nen say, "Do it agin!"

It's dretful when he's climbin' up, It makes me shiver some, But I des double up my fists An' watch the old mouse come; It's worser, heaps, when in he creeps Up underneaf my chin. I laugh till daddy has to stop-- Nen I say, "Do it agin!" --_Woman's Home Companion._

One of the latest kitchen novelties is a spoon holder, which hangs on the inside of any preserving kettle and holds the stirring spoon when not in use. They are made of aluminum and will not rust.

By using one, you dispense with saucer, cup or plate to hold the spoon, and the spoon is always ready for use and always where it is to be used. After you have once used this little article you would not part with it for five times its cost.

Grape Juice

The finest grape juice is obtained by pressing the grapes without boiling. After all juice has been extracted by the _Yale Fruit Press_, place pulp in kettle, bring to a boiling point, then continue pressing operation. This latter will yield a darker colored juice and not so delicate in flavor as the juice extracted by the cold process. In bottling or canning do not mix, but put up separately. Cold process juice must be heated to the boiling point before it is bottled.

One of the greatest aids and "step-savers" for the woman who does her own work is a "Wheel-Tray."

Its cost represents not more than you'd have to pay a domestic for two or three weeks.

The advantage of _this_ helper is that it is always ready, never wants "an evening off," never argues, never sulks and is always "Bridget on the spot," if we may be permitted this adaptation of the well-known phrase.

Ten dollars for the Wheel-Tray will save you hundreds of dollars' worth of labor, worry and time. Those who have used it say they cannot now get along without it.

It will last for years, has no breakable or intricate parts and glides about like a silent, well-trained butler.

In addition to its help in kitchen and dining-room, some use it sweeping days, taking the small articles out of a room before sweeping. It saves many steps in one home in distributing the freshly-ironed clothes to their respective bureau drawers.

Blackberry Muffins

1 cup blackberries 1 cup warm milk 1 cake Fleischmann's Yeast 2 cups sifted flour 2 tablespoonfuls granulated sugar 1 tablespoonful butter ¼ teaspoonful salt 1 well-beaten egg

Have milk lukewarm, dissolve yeast into it; then add sugar, butter, salt, egg well beaten; add flour gradually and beat thoroughly; cover; set aside to rise for one and one-half hours. Then stir in very lightly the cup of berries and put in well-greased muffin tins. Let rise for twenty minutes. Bake twenty minutes in a moderate oven. This makes one dozen. Takes about two and one-half hours. Should be eaten hot and are very delicious.

Salads, Sandwiches and Chafing-dish Dainties By Mrs. JANET MCKENZIE HILL, Editor The Boston Cooking-School Magazine

_A New and Revised Edition. Profusely Illustrated._

230 pages. Price, $1.50

Salads and chafing-dish dainties are destined to receive in the future more attention from the progressive housekeeper than has as yet been accorded to them. In the past their composition and consumption has been left chiefly to that portion of the community "who cook to please themselves." But since women have become anxious to compete with men in every walk of life, they, too, are desirous to become adepts in tossing up an appetizing salad or in stirring a creamy rarebit. The author has aimed to make it the most practical and reliable treatise on these fascinating branches of the culinary art that has yet been published. Due attention has been given to the a b c of the subjects, and great care exercised to meet the actual needs of those who wish to cultivate a taste for palatable and wholesome dishes, or to cater to the vagaries of the most capricious appetites. The illustrations are designed to accentuate, or make plain, a few of the artistic effects that may be produced by various groupings or combinations of simple and inexpensive materials.

We will mail "Salads, Sandwiches and Chafing-Dish Dainties," postpaid, on receipt of price, $1.50, or as a premium for three new yearly subscriptions to the magazine.

Important Legal Decision

The Liebig's Extract of Meat Company of London, makers of the celebrated Liebig's Extract of Meat, has gained an important victory in its suit against the Liebig Extract Company of Hudson and Thomas streets, New York City, by the decision recently handed down of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

The principal issue was as to the right of the Liebig Company of London to exclusive ownership in the name "_Liebig_," and the Appellate Court has now given a decision, with heavy costs against the Liebig Extract Company of New York, and enjoins that company from using the word "_Liebig_" in connection with the sale of extract of meat. Since this decision is final and not subject to further appeal, it should mark the end of infringements on the original and genuine Liebig Extract of Meat made by Liebig's Extract of Meat Company of London, under rights acquired from the eminent Baron Justus von Liebig, whose facsimile signature "J. v. Liebig," in blue, is a prominent feature of the package.

How French Women Develop Their Bust

First Opportunity Ever Given to the Ladies of America to Profit by the Mdme. DuBarrie Positive French Method of Bust Development.

Many women believe that the bust cannot be developed or brought back to its former vigorous condition. Thousands of women have vainly used massage, electricity, pump instruments, creams, ointments, general tonics, constitutional treatments, exercises and other methods without results.

Any Woman May Now Develop Her Bust

Mdme. DuBarrie will explain to any woman the plain truth in regard to bust development, the reason for failure and the way to success. The =Mdme. DuBarrie Positive French Method= is different from anything else ever brought before American women. By this method any lady--young, middle aged or elderly--may develop her bust from =2 to 8 inches in 30 days=, and see definite results in 3 to 5 days, no matter what the cause of the lack of development. It is based on scientific facts, absolutely safe and lasting. _For complete illustrated information, sent sealed secure from observation, send your name and address, with a two-cent stamp. Communications strictly confidential._
