WOMAN’S PAGE pic Dishes Made at Small Cost BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. 1If you want to have a fancy main dish for party refreshments, and have it cost little, serve meat or fish aspic. Or if not so hearty a dish is wanted, a vegetabl: salad aspic is rec- ommend:d. Aspic signifies a savory jelly j | chicken. THESE ASPIC DISHES ARE DEC- ORATIVE AND DELICATE IN FLAVOR. in which meat, fish, eggs or other in- gredients are held in suspension Veal aspic jelly is made from the water in which a knuekle of veal has been cooked. In boiling, the water should be well seasoned with salt, pep- A WASHINGTON r, onions, celery, vu:llfiv and such g:her sweet herbs as blend well with the particular kind of solid in- gredients to be combinsd. The water must_be cooked down enough for the liquid to jell wheend cold. Or a little elatin can be added. i Chicken aspic is considered one of the finest kinds. Veal is a substitut: The meat from the knuckle, if carefully stripped of all gristle, bone and fat, can be used satisfactorily. Or it can be used to increase the amount of cold chicken. Cold , or roasted fresh pork, treated as the veal, can be suc- cessfully used ‘also, especially if with White meats, not red, are correct for aspics. Sliced hard boiled eggs, capers, sliced | stuffed olives, tiny cookdd carrot cubes, shreds of fresh parsley, slivers of green ctring beans, and occasionally, green eas with chickeh, veal and pork com- ine to mak> an attractivé aspic. Since many of th> ingredients are inexpensive and the quentity is considerab’e for the amount of meat, it diminishes the cost per person to very little. When | you consider that v-:sflcs are among the | dressy dishes ser by caterers, the fact that the expense to make them is little argues in their favor for women who prepare their own party dishes. ‘The important matter is to have the ingredients so held in suspension that a design appears when the aspic is un- molded. Individual portions are advised. The mold is partly filled with jelly which is sllowed to harden before & center slice of egg is placed on it. This may be surrounded with a ring of capers or wee sprigs of parsley or slices of stuffed olives or grecn peas. Over this cames a layer of aspic. The next layer shou'd have meat and whatever vege- table ingr-dients are used. It is in- teresting if & circle of the peas or carrot cubes or both, used alternately, come | next to the aspic around the outer edge. | Fill the mold with alternate layers of | aspic and solid ingredients. Pour the | aspic in gently and it will cover the | solid portions without disturbing their arrangement. Allow the aspic to harden | each time after it is .70 ‘hns"n the filling of molds. they | should be set in cracked iee. This is but one arrangement‘of design. | "A fruit combination or & vegetable | combination ean form three respective | aspics. At time to serve, unmold the ice-cold aspics and serve with mayon- | naise or Russian_dressing. ‘A simple aspic jelly can be made by boiling down vegetables, and seasoning with sweet herbs as well as salt and pepper. Strain and add enough gelatin to | harden when_cold. | (Copyright, 1831.) | Pilau. | Chop one onion and cook it in & | tablespoonful of butter.

HAT serious-minded. ldom-smiling Senator from Michigan — James Cougens—is giving a new meaning to that old description of the United States Senate as “club of millionaires.” There have been many men of wealth on the ros- . ter of the Senate, but, there have been few of the Couzens type. He makes a million dollars shape up about like &8 a $5 bill to most men.

ATHERS among the bug and in- sect families are famous at side- stepping their duty, deed, very few ever assist with the cares of the family and few ever know they have one. There is one mother. however, who is determined that her spouse shall take some responsibility. ' She makes him the family carryall! There is no willing- ness on his part to be the burden bearer. In fact, it takes hours for his wife to cecure the entire family to his back. He remonstrates with her and tries his best to dodge her. No use. She has made up her mind that the logical place for her children is on the back of their father. She hovers over him and when he is not looking she derts down and glues another egg right next to the last :.hll? it mt: dmodz'“m 'I‘?\“ wer e them. e mother has fastened each egg sccurely, to prevent any such thing happening. After all the eggs are placed the mother leaves for pu?a unknown. The father now does everything to get rid of his burden. It was this act| on his part which led investigators to | watch such parental affection. No| mother would be guilty of such actions, | they were sure. And sure enough they found out that it was a father who was | s0 disgruntled at the loss of his liberty that he was determined to shake his | family. | For an agile swimmer and diver to| be deprived of his liberty is indeed a calamity. Try as he would he could not swim and dart gleefully about with this load on his back. His unfettered brethren, who were sporting about in the water, now left him far behind. To crawl under the shelter of a stone and rush out after a juicy tadpole was now impossible. He listed to one side and he was too heavy to swim. Climbing up the stem of a water plant, the unhappy father would try to forget his troubles. He looked discour- aged and low in his mind. whemverl he looked at the lively swimmers he would look more unhappy than ever. The tip of his abdomen touched the water's edge. He did not try to join his friends any more. Insults were heaped upon him by his enemies. Too weary and discouraged, he did not take the trouble to resent their remarks. By the time his gleeful family have left their egg home and joined other happy swimmers, their fa- ther is too far gone to notice them. The Zaither father does not take the loss of his liberty so to heart and after his family departs he jumps into the| water and is soon swimming about as joyfully as his own youngsters. | (Copyright, 1931.)

It was two days before Farmer | Brown's Boy had another chance to visit the rock slide where the Pikas lived. Those had been busy days for Little Chief and Mrs. Little Chief—busy but happy days.

It is good hay.” said he. ‘“Those little folks know their business. It is well cured, and unless it gets wet | through it will not sour or spoil in any way. I wonder if they will leave it here or will store it away somewhere. Hello, it looks as if there is going to be | a shower. It is a good thing that I brought a rubber coat along.” He put the coat on and then found a skeltered place under the shelf of rock as the first raindrops came patteriny down.

A funny little bleating bark came from close by and then another.

That hay was wet, and it needed to be spread and dried at once. There was no doubt about it. 8o they went to work pulling that | stack apart and spreading the wet hay | on the rocks in fhe sun.

This ability to use her own judgment and make her own decisions will be of advantage to her in any line of en- deavor.

The angular letter forms suggest a tepdency to eriticize. She should realize that the dreamer type is as necessary to the world as her own more practical nature.
