While the menus are seem- ingly elaborate, the dishes are with but fow exceptions composed of the plamest and least expensive materials. Th varlety conveys the impression that they are beyond the means of the average house- The aim 18 to strike a happy m and sult a very great many tastes and needs. Given the proper arrangement of classifying the dishes in order it is a very simple matter to add to or curtail theso menus. The simplest dinner menu must have the following courses: Soup, a meat dish or its equivalent, with accom- panylng vegotable, a salad and dessert, with coftee, or it is not a dinner. From this plain foundation we build up, first adding the fish course, then relishes, enm- trees and so on, until we get to the formal, ceremontous dinner. The menus do not glve many of the ex- pon: ronsts or joluts, havirg in view the fact that any is more or less famillar with these cuts of meat and how they are used, but may be entirely in Ignorance of the cheaper and oftimes better parts of the animal. There is difficulty in disposing of these large and expensive pleces when the family is small. And uo- less a roast is of considerable thickness it 1s not satisfactory. The desserts are also gelected with a view to economy as well as yarfety. When the family is very small the dessert question is more of a problem Many of these dishes are best made in moderately large quantities. To avold Jeft- overs in this line select desserts that can be made in very smal) proportions, like the varlous ogg custard preparations, junket gelatine, fruit tapiocas and dishes of like nature “\Vhen fruits are enjoyed they are the desserts for small families, using elther fresh or stewed. This dessert can be disposed of, except for apecial occasions like Sunday, if, having sufficient mm-{ viands to supply the proper amount of 1(.:“ ¥ the dessert is added only as a finishing touch, But in most familles the “here: after s a great consideration.

Remove the shells and skins and mash smooth, adding a tablespoonful of melted butter or rich cream, a teaspoon ful of salt and three dashes of white pep- per. Mix well together and stuff the turkey. You will require more for large turkey. If preferred the chestnuts may be used in the gravy and turkey stuffed with sausage or served au naturel Frozen Rico Pudding—Wash well half & cup of rice and put it in a double boller with one pint of cold water, cook half &n hour; then drain and cover with a pint of milk and cook until tender. Whip a quart of geod, sweet cream and stand in a cold place to drain. When rice is tender rub it through a sieve and return to the boller Beat together until light one and a half cups of sugar and yolks of six eggs and add to the rice.

With a sharp knife cut into slices quarter of an inch thick, removing the pits and core. Put one pound of sugar in a saucepan with half a cup of water and stir until sugar is dissolved; then boll ten minutes and skim if necessary; add julce of half a lemon. Put in the slices of oranges, & few at a time, and let them cook @ moment, then lay out on a flat dish. When all are done pour the re- mainder of the syrup over them and let them get perfectly cold.

He started to do so and that was the laet ehe saw of him until one day last week, when he walked Into the house with a sack of flour on his shoulder, saying, as he set it down, that he had not forgotten the errand. He has been in the far west, has accumulated a good deal of money and will take Mrs. White to his western home An old sailor, incapacitated for sea duty by age and long years of rough service, was recently appointed sexton of the chapel at the naval academy at Annapolls, The bureau of equipment and supplies at the Navy department o Washington furnishes books as well as conl and “salt horsc” to the satlors und the new sexton applied there for a bible.

Gentlemen who contemplate puiting California jokes in thelr wills should not alm them at widows. They are not usually in a joking humor."” “Apropos of funerals,” writes a London correspondent of the Boston Transcript, "I noticed in Holborn a showcase full ot strange looking pletures. Upon inspection they proved to be photographs of cadavers, laid out fn full mortuary splendor. Under- neath ran the legond, ‘Economy in funerals, Iry our three guinea respectable interment, One trial only asked.' Scarcely less grew- some was the display of Mr, Smith, surgeon dentist, a few doors beyond. A small show- case inclosed a complacent skull, grinning perhaps to think his dental trials were over, set with an imposing array of piuk- ummed artificial teeth, at 16 shillings the set. Over the top of the case were painted theso alluring words: ‘Discolored and de- cayed teeth made white and stopped.’ " An Erglish couple, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Chamberlain, who are traveling in this country, were recently the victims of a heariless practical joke on the part of an American whom they met on a train in the west. He told them that if they wished to see a typleal frontler town they ought to stop at Denver. Upon his advice they pur- chased such luxuries as would be needed In that crude village, such as a private bath tub, with alcohol lamp for heating the water, etc. The wag informed Mr. Cham- berlain that guests at tho Denver hotel were supposed to wash in @ tin bagin on a bench in the back yard. When he saw Denver he was astounded, and, as he explained to the botel man the reason why he brought along the private bath tub, he was unable to un- derstand the mirth of that gentleman or to fathom the motives of his informant. Ah Sin's propensity for walking In ways that are dark has been demonstrated {n New York's Chinatown, where nine Mongo- lian merchants and restaurant keepers have been arrested for stealing several thousand dollars’ worth of electric light from the Edison company. The theft was ed through the use of an ingenlous de- arranged by an expert electriclan, who farmed it out to the Chinese at $10 per month. “Some months ago,” says Youth's Com- panion, “a New England society for the pre- vention of cruelty to animals sent to Porto Rico a large number of circulars.

About @ year ago a seventy-pound Mis- our oF o 1900, 5 P R M W weda: {:" b Doctors Mystified. A woman is sick ; some disease peculiar to her sex is fast developing in her system. She goes to her family physician and tells him a story, but not the whole story. She holds something back, losés her head, becomes agitated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally con- ceals what she ought to have told, and thus completely mystifies the doctor. Is it any wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to cure the disease? Still, we cannot blame the woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering, even to her family physician. It was for this reason that years ago Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., determined to step in and help her sex. Having had considerable experience in treating female ills with her Vegetable Compound, she encouraged the women of Amer- ica to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints, and being a woman, it was 'easy for her ailing sisters to pour into her ears every detail of their suffering. In this way she was able to do for them what the phy- sicians were unable to do, simply because she had the proper information to work upon, and from the little group of women who sought her advice years ago, a great army of her fellow-beings are today constantly applying for advice and relief, and the fact that more than one hundred thousand of them have been successfully treated by Mrs. Pinkham during the last year is indicative of the grand results which are produced by her unequaled experience and training. No physician in the world has had such a training, or has such an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment of all kinds of female ills, from the simplest local irritation to the most complicated diseases of the womb. This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in her laboratory at Lynn, Mass., is able to do more for the ailing women of America than the family physician. Any woman, therefore, is responsible for her own suffering who will not take the trouble to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice. The testimonials which we are constantly publishing from grateful women establish beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to conquer female diseases.
