PORTLAND. Or., March 1. Kindly repeat
a recipe for sour cream salad dressing given
in i ae uregonian some time ago.
MRS. a. A. J.
I HOPE the following is the one you
mean. If not, please write again:
Sour cream salad dressing Beat one
cup sour cream; one tablespoon lerrlon
juice; and one-fourth teaspoon, each,
salt, paprika and mustard. Beat until
firm over cold water, or it may quickly
turn to butter. This is good for savory
salads. For some of the potato salads,
for instance, more salt and, possibly,
more lemon juic will be needed. A
little pinch of sugar may be desirable
for some palates. This is also good for
sweet, or half-sweet, fruit salads. The
amount of sugar would be determined
by the kind of fruit used. For sweet
fruit salad, the mustard and paprika
would, of course, be omitted. Where
the sour cream flavor is disliked, add
a tiny pinch of soda; or, if the cream
Is very sour, one-fourth (level) tea
spoon to one cup cream, and beat well
before adding the acid and seasoning.
This will make the cream foam, and
will neutralize its acid, so that more
lemon juice will be needed than if the
cream were used plain. Part orange
and part lemon juice may be used for
a fruit salad, or for crab or shrimp
salads. For the latter, no sugar be
yond the usual "final seasoning pinch"
will be needed, but probably more mus
tard and paprika. Tarragon vinegar
might replace all or part of the lemon
juice, if preferred.
MARCH 13. I am writing you today,
thinking you can possibly give me the in
formation I desire. It has become necessarv
for me to do something toward bolstering
up tne lamuy unance ana Ilnuing mysell
unprepared" to do the usual things attempted
by women, it occurred to me that I might,
with a little diligent apDlication. tut to
good use my cooking ability. Are there not
a number of women who do their own work
but like to entertain and wouldn't it be
possible for me to find plenty of oppor
tunity to prepare and serve luncheon for
such women at a good profit, very' much
as a caterer would? If you could offer any
suggestions they would be gratefully re
ceived. Kither I can arrange to see you at
your convenience or vou can write me.
Thanking you in advance. I am K. J.
I am sorry that it is not possible for
me to send you. a personal reply. I be
lieve that there is quite a field for
catering work such as you describe.
The difficulty is to make a start and
form a good connection. If you please
in your earliest attempts, I think you
will find that one woman will gladly
recommend you to another. You need,
of course, to be well informed in mat
ters of table service, to have good
ideas for table decorations (if your
employer should ask for suggestions),
and to have a good practical knowledge
of menu planning, the principals of
salad combination, and the making of
fancy cakes and desserts. Tou might
get some idea as to what demand there
is for such services from the T. W. C.
A. and the Woman's Exchange. The
latter might also offer a field for turn
ing your cooking ability into money.
Tou might write and inquire if there
is any "specialty" in the line of cooked
food that you could furnish for the
I Woman's Exchange to sell for you on

ALMOST everyone knows of the
funny little mice that whirl about
evei-y few moments in a waltz, but few
have heard of a dancing bird that lives
far away in the wilds of Australia, that
wonderful country on the other Bide of
the world.
Back in the depth of the jungle there
has lived for hundreds of years a race
of people who are called Bushmen, as
the forests they inhabit are called the
Bush. They are brown in color and
have long, black hair, while their only
clothing is a mat tied around the body.
These bushmen have always been
fond of dancing, and every week they
would hold a feast, at which the girls
and men would prance around a blaz
ing fire from sunset till dawn, whirl
ing about in the moonlight to the music
of the tom-tom and native drums.
Among the maidens of the olden
times were two daughters of a mother
who had great power in doing strange
things, and some even said she gath
ered poisonous herbs to put in the
food of her foes. The girls were not
at all alike. The oldest, whose name
was Oba, was a dark beauty, but with
flashing eyes and a fiery temper. Sura,
who was flight and quiet, had a gentle
nature and was not at all striking in
appearance. Both were beautiful danc
ers, but the steps of Sura were said to
be more graceful than those of her sis
ter, which made the older girl very
jealous. Besides, the girls both loved a
young man who was devoted to Sura.
So it soon happened that Oba grew to
hate her younger sister most heartily.
One night Sura and the young man
were walking In the forest down a path
bordered by thick bushes, and in the
tangled weeds they stopped. Here they
planned to have a wedding feast and a
great dance the following week. Oba.
who was seated in the bushes, heard
every word and her face darkened with
anger.
"Never shall my sister marry the
man I love." swore Oba under
her breath. "I will show her how she
can insult her older sister."
So Oba went home, and finding the
mother asleep, she asked questions of
her and received replies, for the wo
man did not know to whom she was
talking.
"Is it possible to turn anyone into a
bird?" she whispered into her mother's
ear.
"Oh! yes." said the mother, still
dreaming, "if one will gather the root
of the yucca and boil it at dawn, the
juice will turn anyone into a bird that
will continue to act in most ways as
If it were a mortal."
"But where can I find the yucca?"
whispered Oba again in her mother's
ear.
"Down by the green pool," returned
the woman. "The water there is full
of the plant."
Oba ran out of the house, and, as
she did so, brushed past her sister
coming back to the hut singing in her
happiness. In a few minutes the
wicked girl had reached the pool,
gathered a handful of root and was
home again. Then she sat till dawn
to boil it down.
The next day the coming marriage
was announced and great preparations
wcro made. "When the night arrived,
Oba opened the feast with her dancing,
which siie kept up for an hour, whiil
ing ata jut in a thousand fantastic ways.
When it came to the turn of the
bride. Sura rose timidly, buz she soon
forgot the crowd and danced away as
lightly as a ft-ntfcer blown oy toe
breeze. The company broke into a
storm of apt lituse. Oba took a chance
when she thought no one was looking
to pour the yucca juice into the bride's
cup, but she did not notice that the
bridegroom, when her back was turned,
exchanged the cups, so that the one in
tended for Sura stood before Oba in
stead. The young bridegroom knew of
the sister's jealousy, and seeing some
thing put into the bride's cup by
the sister, knew it was for harm.
When Sura had finished, Oba thought
to outdo her sister, so she started again
in a mad whirl. As she came by the
bridegroom he took up her cup and of
fered it to the tired girl.
"You are weary with the feasting,"
he said. "Drink and refresh yourself."
Oba turned up the cup and drank
thirstily. But hardly had she swal
lowed its contents when she uttered a
scream the charm was beginning to
work and she realized that she had
made a mistake:
She commenced to shrivel up in the
legs, her body grew short and fat, her
neck pulled out into a long, ugly thing,
with a tiny head, to which was stuck
a red bill. Two long thin legs reached
to the ground In short, the wicked sis
ter had turned herself Into a. crane, ,

Deputy Game Warden, reported to his

"Notice any game warden who is

Warden Nolleth did not believe in
