When properly prepared and slowely eooked until thoroughly tender a sam of beef is not only nourishing, but may alss be made the basis of many tasty and most arcetizing dighes. Tt is really a sat- isfactory solution for reducing meat bills. Shin Beef Pie: Cut up two pounds of shin of beef, season with chopped cnion, ipepper, salt; fry in dripping, when browned, cover with water, and stew slowly for two hours. Peel and slice six potatoes; fill a ple dish akternating with meat and motatoes. Cover with crust, bake one and ona half hours. I made a delicious meat pudding by frying two pounds of shin of beaf, reas- oning with chopped onion, salt, and pep- per. When brown, cover with water and simmer for two hcurs. Make a swet crust and line a bow! with it. When the meat has stewed the requisite time, ada |two siices of tomatoes of two tanble | spoons of tomato soup. one hard bofled g ed fine, put into, the paste and steam three hours. Beef a la Mode: Cut thres pounds of shin beef into squares, and put to soak in a marinade of three tablespoons of vinegar, two of claves. one of garlic, six whole peppersyand afx cloves al finsly pounded: a feaspoon of salt. soma pars- ley, fpowdered marjoram and thyms. Al- low the beef to macerate for two hours Fry four onfons and in same fat fry the meat, add two tablespoons flour and stew untl light brown, eover with stock or water, boil and remove scum. add the marinade and gently simmer three hours. Army Slum: Take about three pounds of the shin out in small pieces. put over and hoil four hours slowly. To that auan- tity of meat and stock add 1-2 cup rice, boil 30 minutes more, salt and pepper to taste. This #s very nice with riced potato. i OPHEILIA.

Editor and Readers: those’ of you who have had your s mer blessed with the delightful bloom and fragrance of roses, I would say mow ie the time Lo look out for a supply for another vear, so do mot turn your backs on the gen:ous bushes but continue to extend to tham the same care that was given throizh the yielding season. Although a light, sandy soil is most tavorable o the growth of roses, it should be covered over every autumn with a zond fertilizer the plant food from cows b-ing preferred. to any other, To Dear Corasr ana in selscting this great care should be taken that it ls sufficiently ma- ture, for if -0t a green fermentation is likely to cneare, which is death to the piant. In chosting a site for a rosc garden one should take care to command as open and sxnosed & space as possible, 0 that dusing the summer the plants may recelve their full abundance of sun, wind, rain and dew. But it Is not enought to protect mere- Iy the roo's of the plants. Now Is the time one ihould gather long branches from the codar, pine or other evergraen and place theni in the ground around and between the bushes where they serve protect their more deiicate kindred from the cold winds of winter, also mak- ing the garismmore pleasing to the eve during the long inter months, Just before hudding time in the spring the fertilizer which has lald on the ground duriag the winter should be thoroughly worked into the sol!, all dead branches eut out and at least one-half of the previ>us year's growth. less than this severe cutting process will perpetuate the life and vigor of the plant. Tn addition to the fertilizer already men. toned, bone, wood ashes and powder- ed charcoal may all be used on the sofl, the latter's special office baing to pre. serve and Ceepen the tints of the hlos- foms.

A woman is a citizen of America ae- eording as her husband is or is net a citizen. A= the law is now, if her husband iz an American citizen, a woman is; if he is} not. she is not.

A man born across the sea, can come to this country. and in five years become an American citizen. My son must walt twenty-one vears. His grandmother livel her whole life, was born and died in America and could never become an American voter. Verily we have progressed i the las few years. What shall tha future be?
