Chicken Panada. —Remove the skin and every particle of fat from the breast of a chicken.

Take it ' from the broth, cut Into small pieces, ’ pound and press through a sieve. Add to the broth, season to ta-te with salt and a bit of cayenne (if allowed in the diet), four tublespoonfuls of eream, then bring to the boiling point. Serve in a pretty bowl with thin toast cut in fancy shapes. Half of n large chicken breast will be sutfleh nt. This Is u delicious dish which may be given convalescing typhoid patients. Meat Pate. —Scrape a portion of round steak with a sharp edged tin spoon. I'ids removes the tender portion, leaving the tough connecting tissue. Press into small cakes and broil. Season a bit before putting onto the broiler. Serve on buttered toast cut very thin in small rounds to hold the meat. Oatmeal Cruel.—Place one-half cupful of oatmeal in one-quart of water, add a teaspoonful of salt, or just enough to make it palatable, a teaspoonful of sugar and boil for two hours, then strain through a sieve. !

Let us rind things to do Saner and sweeter, yet Higher and nobler and true. COME TO DINNER! The housewife who has members of her family with flagging appetites which must be catered to, ®is not t>o fortunate as she who has husky ones and the only problem is to furnish quantity; however, In all homes such times will come and it is necessary to meet these conditions with a | reserve of ideas which will give variety to the meals. Potatoes are the common staple food and with the three or more hundred ways of serving them we should reasonably expect to have them prepared in other ways than baked and boiled and mashed and fried. The following is away to serve them which will appeal to the appetite and give a pleasant change: Spaniah Potatoes.—Boil potatoes as usual, using the sjnall even-sized one;. In the serving dish which is hot, pnt , two tablespoonfuls each of gutter and finely-minced onion, turn in the hot potatoes which have been drained and shaken over the heat, to remove nil moisture, salt and chop the potatoes, turning and mixing them well with the butter and onion. Serve hot, at once. Cabbage Is one of our good winter j vegetables, available throughout the 1 year—is rich in vitamines, mineral ; salts and furnishes bulk which Is ' needed to cleanse the alimentary canal, i Twice a week is not t<» often to serve cabbage; oftener is better. Cabbage is more valuable uncooked. It is good as a salad, as cold slaw, or cooked and served with a dressing of butter, milk and a few crumbed crackers. A most tasty salad, which Is simple, cheap and easy to prepare is this: Cabbage Salad.—Chop one small head of cabbage with one mediumsized onion. Fry a slice of salt pork cut into very small cubes, pour over the fat, reserving tile browned enbet for garnishing the top of the salad. Season well with salt and pepper, and into the frying pan add a little vine gar; when boiling hot pour over tht i cabbage which has been well-mixed with the fat. The amount of fat and vinegar will he determined by the size or amount of cabbage used. Th« dressing should be enough to season and moisten well with none to drain away. i TttLtAc

And out of the ruck and rust and stain We make some growth and We mark some gain. —Author Unknown, i FEEDING THE FAMILY 'T'HIS is the daily task of twenty million housewives in America—to provide a good meal for the family. As 90 per cent of our housewives must use economy, it is vital that they know how to spend the money provided I them, for the best food. Our grocers tell us it is not tlie wealthy housewives, as a rule, who buy food, fruit, vegetables and luxuries out of season, but those who can least afford It. j It is often a lack of knowledge of food values, and carelessness ami indifference in regard to expenditures. It should be the alm, and is, with s large majority of housekeepers, rich nr poor, to feed the family well, with as little waste as possible and with ! as small a money outlay. Food is the j big Item in the weekly budget of the ' growing family and there is no one who can do more than suggest as to the wise spending of the income, for each family has Its own problems which must be worked out in the same manner that a mother manages her children—no two need the same training or discipline. Growing boys and men at active labor need substantial, filling meals. The boys need as much as grown men, i for they are building their bodies as well as burning up food in their activities. Men who are in offices, or occupied In positions where the brain Is active and tiie body has little exercise, need much less of the energy-producing food. Their food should be of such combinations as are easily digested, though of course it should be nourishing as well. Fork and beans, liam I and fried eggs, corn beef and cabbage are foods which the laborer or outdoor worker may eat freely, as such food Is necessary. Put as much Interest into the planning of meals and tiie serving of them ns is put into a game of bridge or a “movie" picture and we will have made a start toward the millennium.

■ ■ ■ - ■■ i Something to Think Slbout By F. A. WALKER WORDS OF CHEER TF YOU cannot give frequent, encouraging words of cheer to your homemates und to those with whom you come in contact during your working hours, it would be better to bridle your tongue and seal your lips. A rough word roughly spoken, produces nothing but evil and drives many a sensitive soul to despair. It arouses animosity and hate, quite the opposite of a kindly word which awakens slumbering emotions jind L'ndles a beneficent flame of love. It may at times, especially when you are not In a pleasant humor, cost a great effort to launch the cheerful word, but if you will bruMh aside your own turbulent feelings, and send forth the cheer and sunshine of which you ure capable of doing, you, too, to your amazement, will participate in their ; delicious sweets and enjoy the thrill j of an unanticipated pleasure. From the first moment when you begin to practice the scattering of cheering words, the whole atmosphere around you changes. Tiie world somehow seems drawn closer to heaven, and everything and everybody about you appears brighter and happier. In reality, there is no change except in yourself. You have sown happiness and are reaping happiness. You have flung broadcast the sanctified blessings und they are returning to you from every point of the compass, filling your soul with a joy unspeakable. It is you who are nearer heureii. participating in its delights without knowing it. growing more lovable as tiie years speed by, dim your eye und whiten your hair. Old friends turn to you in their sorrow for comfort. The boys and girls go out of their way to meet and greet you. Even the derelicts have in some manner heard your praises sung and respect you. Their bleary eyes brighten and their tough old hearts soften when your name Is spoken, in spite of their genera) belief that they are invulnerable to the gentle touches of kindness. The greatest workers for the uplifting of humanity ure the little word* of cheer, which, when fitly spoken, often change pcasts to men, spur them to leftlcr endeavor and turn thekt terrible night into a glorious day. <<J), 1923, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate ) O Has Anyone Laughed I At You nr : 5 Because — \ * You like good music?
