This Man Just Didn't
Appreciate Her f irst Aid
T H E caution to let sleeping dogs
A lie needn’t worry you with this
floppy, cuddly pooch — he’ll go
right on sleeping. Everyone loves
him!
She was on her way home from
a first aid course when she saw a
man lying prone in the middle ot
the sidewalk. His face was cra
dled in one arm; the other arm
was twisted under him in & pecu
liar position. All alert she was,
and without a moment’s hesitation
got down on her knees and went to
work. Here v/as her opportunity
to prove herself.
For a few minutes there was no
response, then the victim spoke
up. "Lady,” he said, "I don’t
know what you’re doing, but I
wish you’d quit tickling me. I’m
trying to hold a lantern for this
fellow down in the manhole, and
he’s got a fiery temper.”
Preserve the “ pop” in popcorn
by keeping the corn moist in a
lightly closed container.
Doctor—And this is your diet.
Patient—Yes, doctor, do I take it
before or after meals?

You'll be using more of the lower
grades of beef as time goes by. Most
of the AA and A, top grades of beef,
are going to armed forces and utili
ty or lower grade beef will be more
available for civilian consumption.
That calls for pulling out the old-
fashioned. flavorful recipes that will
really make this beef taste good. We
used to do, and can still do It as
long as we pull the bunny of inge
nuity out of the proverbial hat, or
cookbook, as the case may be.
Inexpensive cuts of meat can be
made tender by several methods.
Round steak can
be pounded with
a small hammer
or mallet to break
down the tissues,
then braised with
liquids and sea
sonings to savory
goodness. Stew
ing is another
good method for
cooking this type
of meat.
Adding tomato Juice,
spices, mushroom soup and other
liquids gives peak flavor.
Here are recipes which may be
made with utility beef, but which
will have just as much flavor as
the more expensive cuts:
Swiss Steak.
(Serves 6)
Round or Arm steak, cut 2
inches thick
Flour
Salt and pepper
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons lard
2 cups tomatoes
1 carrot, diced
54 cup corn
1 small green pepper, sliced
54 cup water
M ix flour, salt and pepper; pound
Into steak. Brown steak in lard.
Add vegetables and water. Cover
pan and cook in slow oven (300 de
grees) for 254 hours. Add more wa
ter if needed. Serve with vegeta
bles poured over steak.
Short Ribs With Vegetables.
(Serves 6)
5 pounds short ribs of beef
3 teaspoons salt
54 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons lard
I medium-sized potatoes
8 small onions
4 parsnips
4 carrots
Wipe meat with damp cloth, sprin
kle with salt and pepper and brown
in hot fat. Add
water, cover and
allow to simmer
an hour. Prepare
vegetables. Add
whole
potatoes,
onions, parsnips
and carrots cut in
half. Season vegetables, cover and
continue cooking until vegetables
are tender. Serve meat on platter
garnished with vegetables.
L yn n Says
*
Point Pointers: Use low tem
peratures in cooking meat, re
gardless of the method. High tem
peratures shrink meat unneces
sarily.
Save all the meat you buy. If a
roast is boned at the butchers,
bring the bones home and use
them for soup.
Different seasonings add inter
est to meats. Try onion gravy
with beef. Mushroom soup, di
luted and heated, goes well with
lamb. Horseradish adds pep to
pot roast or short ribs gravy.
Pork gravy is good with a dash
of sage, lamb gravy with a bit of
curry.
Leftover vegetables such as
peas, carrots, celery, lima beans
and green beans added to gravy
make it colorful, different and
more nourishing.

Spiced Beef.
3 pounds chuck steak
54 teaspoon cloves
6 medium-sized onions
54 teaspoon peppercorns
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon allspice
6 bay leaves
12 gingersnaps
Wipe meat with damp cloth. Place
in a saucepan and cover with a
mixture of half water and half vine
gar. Add 2 tablespoons salt, sliced
onions, bay leaves and spices. Let
stand at least 24 hours. Place on
stove and simmer gently until meat
Is tender. Take meat out and let
drain. Strain broth through a sieve
and let It come to a boil. Then add
gingersnaps which have been sof
tened into a paste with cold water.
This will thicken broth so that it
will have to be stirred about 3 min
utes. Return meat to gravy and let
stand for about 15 minutes before
serving.

A winter coat with a leopard
spotted lining is the dream of
youth this season. The good news to
young folks who have set their
hearts on having a coat with the
fashionable spotted lining is that one
doesn’t have to buy a fur lining to
get the desired spotted effect. For
the coat pictured the leopard spots
are printed on sturdy cotton twill.
This type lining is very popular,
it really looks like a real fur lin
