PLANNING TO AVOID WASTE
GOOD USE FOR LEFTOVERS
Meat Pattlet May Be Made of One
Variety, or a Combination May
Be Employed.
For these use either cold chicken
and ham, or veal and ham, or even
cold beef or a mixture of cold meats.
One pound of good short crust pastry,
two cupfuls of cold meat, one cupful
of sauce, one tablespoonful of finely
chopped parsley, salt and pepper, and
one egg. Roll out the' pastry to about
a quarter of an Inch in thickness, then
tamp It Into rounds slightly larger
than the gem pans, allowing two
rounds to each gem pan. Cut the meat
Into small dice; If chicken and ham,
or veal and ham are being used, add
white sauce; If dark meat, use brown
eauce, stir the meat Into the sauce,
add the parsley, salt and pepper to
taste. Grease the gem pans, line each
with pastry, put on the lid, not forget
ting to first wet the edges. Make a
hole In the top of each, brush the top
of the patty with beaten egg and bake
them In a hot oven for 25 minutes.
Put them on a sieve until cold.

Careful Housewife Telia How She
Practices Small Economies In
Her Kitchen.
A careful housewife, telling of her
economical methods, says:
"I have learned that the wh'ltes of
eggs may be kept a week In a cool
Place, so when making dressings or
anything which really requires only
i piace the whites in a bowl,
and find I get enough together for
white cakes or dessert before I realize
i.i. may be keDt 5r covering
with cold water. If I serve a salad,
when entertaining, I always serve
white cake, so my eggs serve a double
Purpose. I have a list of recipes for
yolks alone and whites alone; also
some in which I use sour milk, others
ror sweet, eggless cakes, and desserts.
I also keep a careful list of Just
how many sandwiches can be made
from a loaf of bread, how many pieces
I can cut from one of my cakes, how
many portions of chicken salad I may
expect from one: chicken, etc. This
simplifies , planning and eliminates
waste."
CARE IN SELECTING PAPER
General Effect Must Be Considered
, Before the Choice la Made
and Work Begun.
In papering any room It should be
remembered that light Is the first
consideration, andr that the paper
must be chosen accordingly.
Pure white is the best choice when
a specially light room Is wanted, as It
absorbs only about 15 per cent, of the
light thrown upon it. ' Dark green, on
the other hand, is the greatest con
suraer of light, absorbing about 85
pet UOUU
Next to white as a light producer
are the soft pastel tints and light1

The Cup That Cheers.
Women who pride themselves on
their tea making assert that tea to be
good, should be made in an earthen
pot, never In a metal one.
Tea Is never good when long stand
ing, but In some cases It cannot be
helped. It should be poured oS the
leaves Into another heated pot and
.covered with a "cosey." .
If cream is taken a less expensive
-grade of tea may be used than when
lemon is preferred.
An old-fashioned Idea Is to drop a
few shavings of dried orange peel into
the pot In which the tea is made.
Borne like - this, while others believe
that It spoils the flavor of the bever
age. Bits of cinnamon and two or three
cloves dropped In are other way of
'varying the flavor of the cup that
cheers.

but they impart an air of distinction

felt he had met his affinity at last.
"One afternoon, while deeply
wrapped In one of these affinity Quaker

thought was suddenly borne in upon
him that, after sitting out there for
countless ages on the dry and hot and

"Forthwith be hied him back to

Ancient Spanish Lighthouse.
At La . Coruna, in northern Spain,
may be seen a fire tower, which Is,
with the exception of the ruins of the
Roman lighthouse at Dover, the old
est of all existing structures of the
kind.
The exact date of the erection of
this tower is unknown. According to
an ancient tradition it is accredited
to Hercules, whence Its name Torre
de Hercules. Others say that Phoeni
cians, who . had established several
colonies In Spain, - had erected this
light tower for their northland cruises.
However, judging - from the Inscrip
tion, it is more probable that the
Roman Emperor Trajan erected this
structure. The Inscription also men
tions the name of Servius Supus of
LuBltanla as the architect The tow
er Is built of ashlars and Is 27 feet
square and 120 feet In height It has
six separate stories which can only
be reached by a circular staircase
around the exterior of the tower. The
lighthouse was restored in 1684 but at
the end of the eighteenth century was
again In ruins. In 1707 It was rebuilt
by the Spanish government From

LOW MORTALITY IN BATTLE
Enormous Expenditure of Shot and
Shell Without Result No Time
to Take Aim.
The mortality during a battle is sur
prisingly low; in fact according to the
mortality proverb, It takes a ton of
shot to kill a man.
At the seige of Gibraltar 259,387
heavy shot and shell were thrown in
to the garrison during the ten months'
attack, but only 1841 prrsons were
killed and wounded, most of the in
juries being very slight At Salaman
ca only one shot of every 437 took ef
fect, and at Waterloo the fire of one
side of a British square emptied no
more than three or four saddles in a
squadron of French cavalry.
It has been estimated that in the
Crimean war the British troops fired
15,000,000 shots and killed 21,000 Rus
sians, or one death to every 700 shots.'
The French fired 29,000,000 shots and
killed 01,000 Russians, or one death,
to every 690 shots; while the Russians
fired 45,000,000 shots and killed 48,000
of the allies, or one death to every
910 shots.
When the Germans besieged Me
eieres in 1870, 193,000 projectiles were
thrown into the town, but only 300
persons were killed, or one for every
642 shot and shell. At Trouville two
persons were killed by 30,000 shells, or
one person for every 15,000, and at
Lorgny 30,000 shells were fired and
did not kill a single person. (:
In battle thre is not much time to
aim, ni military authorities now re
gard rapidity of fire as being more
essential than range and precision.
At the Alma, where Russians,
iTench and British were engaged, the
French lost 40, the Russians 47, and
the English 75 per 1,000 soldiers. The
Russian loss at Inkerman .was very
heavy, being 110 per 1000, while the
English lost 37 and the French only
5 per 1,000 combatants. The British
loss at Waterloo was 48 per 1,000. In
fact, wherever Britons fight, they kill,
or are themselves killed, in large numbers.
But the New Milkman Wasn't New.
A woman on Lin wood boulevard de
cided not long since to discharge her
milkman because of the inferior qual
ity of milk he had been bringing and
she happened to tell a friend about It
over the phone. Thinking to help her
out, the friend told her they had a
good milkman and she would tell blm
to stop and see her if she wished.
"Walt a minute," she said suddenly.
"I think I hear him on the back porch
right now." c
Presently she came back to the
phone and asked for the exact street
number of the house that she might
give It to the man, and after a sec
ond's silence, the woman holding the
receiver heard a startled exclamation
at the other end of the line.
"I gave him your name and ad
dress," she said, laughing, "and he
says he has been bringing you milk
for three years. What shall I tell
hlm7"' N
"Oh," gasped the friend, "just tell
him he is fired." Kansas City Star.
' Great Trees of Oregon.
"In the forest reserve between the
headwaters of the west fork of Hood
river and the Bull Run lake are some
large trees, bigger than any I have
ever seen anywhere else in the north
west," says George T. Prather, a pio
neer of the Hood River valley.
"The trees are said to be several
hundred feet high and to stand on the
flat of a hidden canyon. Steep bluffs
on either band shut In the gorge In
which they rear themselves, and this
reason is given for the failure of those
who fish in the Lppt lake district to
have found the trees. There are two
species of the great trees.
"One has a yellowish and not very
rough bark, Is straight and as round
as a candle. It has no limbs to a
great height and has a beautiful
crown. The second species is cedar."
Ton of Flour In One Pie.
Of all the pastry ever cooked, none
has attained the magnitude -of the pie
ordered by Frederick the Great 180
years ago for a feast given in honor
of thirty thousand soldiers at the end
of a campaign. The pie was brought
to the table in the most dramatic man
ner. Toward the conclusion of the
meal a strange vehicle, drawn by
eight horses, drove into the camp
grounds. The load seemed heavy and
everyone was consumed with curios
ity to know the nature of his majesty's
"surprise." The pie, which complete
ly filled the vehicle, contained a ton
of flour, five thousand eggs and nine
hundred quarts of milk. It was cook
ed In an oven built for the purpose in
the woods. After the soldiers had
partaken of the pie, enough was left
to give a portion to everyone In the
village near which the army had been
quartered. Harper's Weekly.
