Dear Miss Tingle: I read all your articles and they ftelp me a great deal. I have never written to you before. Would you please publish a good recipe for "corn relish." and also one for "mustard pickles"? Thank you. c. C. C. CORN Relish No. 1 Two quarts green corn, two quarts chopped cabbage, two quarts chopped cu cumbers, one quart chopped green peppers, two quarts chopped celery. two quarts chopped green tomatoes, two ounces mustard seed, two ounces celery seed, four cups sugar, eight cups vinegar, salt to taste. Cook the vegetables separately in salted water until nearly tender, but not soft. Drain and mix with the other ingredients, then ceok 1 hours, put into Jars and seal while hot, or put directly into Jars after mixing and sterilizing two hours. The latter plan is less like ly to give a mush product. Corn Relish No. 2. Mix together ten cups corn cut from the cob, ten cups chopped cabbage, five cups each of chopped onions and green peppers, five cups, chopped celery, six cups vinegar, three to four cups sugar (to taste), two tablespoonr salt, two tablespoons mixed mus tard, one tablespoon each mustard seed and celery seed, one tablespoon tumeric. Mix and cook until tender. Seal while hot. . I have a very large number of corn relish recipes, all slightly dif ferent, both in method and propor tions; so if. the above (which I have not tried personally, but come from a good source) are not what you had in mind please write again. The materials for mustard pickles cauliflower, cucumbers, onions, tc. should be soaked in brine and scalded in vinegar as for any pick les. Then drain and reheat in the following mixture. The amount of mustard and sugar may of course be varied to suit personal taste: Mustard Dressing for Chow Chow or Mustard Pickles.

J. if a very hot mixture- is desired (may be omitted). Mix to a smooth paste with two cups of the vinegar. Heat the rest of the vinegar in a double boiler. Pour it gradually on the first mixture, stirring all the time. Return it to the double boiler, cook until thick, then mix with the prepared vegetables and seal at once. Mustard seed and celery teed in any desired proportion may be mixed loose in the pickle or boiled in a bag with the vinegar with or without a few cloves and pepper corns or mixed pickling spices. PORTLAND. Bent. 30. Dear Minn Tin gle: Could you give me a recipe for a good drop dumplings. I have such very poor luck with mine: they fall and eet so neavy. w oat is tne cause or that Thanamg. you very much. R. B. L. I hope you saw the suggestions given recently by a correspondent in this column. If it was a dumplingr without egg that you wanted, Just use the ordinary baking powder bis cuit formula without shortening. Steaming is usually more satisfac tory than "dropping" dumplings. If you do not steam them, then be sure (V) that your liquid is boiling when the dumplings are dropped in; (2) that it continues to boil for 20 to 30 minutes (accurding to the size of dumpling); (3) that the lid is not lifted during this period; (4) that the dumplings are thoroughly cooked and "set" when taken out. Neglect of any of .these points is always likely to cause falling and heaviness, even -witn the best pro portioned mixtures. offectEiili96: Daily Quiz TTTHAT is a mezzanine?

Dy Helen Decie A HOUSE GUEST owes It to her il1 entertainers to give as little trouble as possible. When she de mands extra service or undue at tention, or when, as In the illustra tion, she keeps everybody waiting for dinner half an hour beyond the time set and announced, she Is proving that " her lack of consid erate- manners makes her a most undesirable visitor. It is bad enough when, through some unforeseen accident, an out side guest has been detained and arrives late, but when host and hostess and Invited guests are impa tiently waiting for the house vis itor who prolongs her appearance, either to create a sensation by some time-consuming artifice In dress, or who waits until the last moment to prepare herself for the dinner party, the offense is unpardonable. Every man and woman accustomed to so cial usage knows that, since a de layed dinner injures the food (and the temper) in the kitchen, it is an obligation of courtesy to ar rive a few minutes before the ap pointed dinner hour.
