Chop I the olives and re |H?URH(?| I move the seeds ' ' IwPmm\ and tou?h white ^^/^^^I^H portion from the ^C^^^tJT peppers. Moisten with a rich mayon naise dressing and fill lemon oops -with the mixture. Place each on a small plate, covered with a doily. A most delicious salad and one easy to prepare ls crisp fresh lettuce dressed with a French dressing to which has been added a teaspoonful of tomato catchup, a tablespoonful of chopped green pepper, a teaspoonful of minced parsley and a tablespoonful of chopped onion. Shake or heat well with a Dover eggbeater, and serve very cold. The dressing is best passed as the oil and vinegar wilts the lettuce very soon.

A REVIEW OF SOME HOMELY DISHES. i We of :en forget the old and satisfy ing dishes of which we used to be so fond in the multi plicity of newer dishes appearing every day. It is well to look over the recipes that have been marked by much using and see if we cannot sur prise our families with an old favorite. Apple Dowdy.-Line a baking dish with slices of brown bread, buttered; fill the spaces with apples which have been pared, cored and chopped; mix a tea spoonful of cinnamon with a half cup ful of brown sugar, .sprinkled over the apples; add a half cupful of water, lay on another layer of bread but tered side up. Bake slowly for one hour and serve with clear sauce. Use a cupful of cider thickened with two tablespoonfuls each of flour and but ter, eooked together. Prune Souffle.-Remove the stones from half a pound of stewed prunes; press the primes through a sieve; add to them the yolks of three eggs, slight ly beaten, and four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar. Fold in the well beaten whites of six eggs; turn into a baking dish; dust the top with pow dered sugar, bake in a quick oven for 15 minutes or until the egg is set Send immediately to the table and serve with cream and sugar. Fruit Gelatin.-Stone and chop a quarter of a pound of dates; mix with the same amount of figs; a sliced banana, the pulp of an orange and a few shredded almonds; cover a box of gelatin with a half pint of cold wa ter and let soak for half an hour. Add to lt a cupful of sugar and a quart of boiling water; stir until dissolved; add juice of two lemons and one or ange and two teaspoonfuls of caramel. Strain into a mold over the fruit and set away to harden. Serve with whipped cream garnished with candied ! pineapple. ? Favorite Dessert (Mrs. Rorer's).

Fill sherbet cups with two tablespoonfuls of this; add a tablesponful of lemon ice and four tablespoonfuls of whipped cream. Serve at once. TO COOK ASPARAGUS MANY WAYS IN WHICH VEGE TABLE MAY BE SERVED. -' Because of Ita Health-Giving Qualities lt Should Be on the Table ne Often a? lt Can Be Afforded. Much has been written and said about the health-giving qualities of asparagus. Taking all these qualities for granted, here are some interesting ways of cooking this vegetable so that it may be served many times without palling on the most enacting and fas tidious appetite: Baked With Cheese.-Drain boiled asparagus and arrange the stalks neatly on a buttered baking dish. Fry. a chopped onion in. butter and pour! this over the asparagus. Sprinkle over it bread crumbs and grated cheese and bake brown. The aspara gus can bo cut into one-inch lengths for this dish. Pried Asparagus.-Boil the aspara gus, drain it, dip each stalk in I eat en egg crumbs and fry in deep fat Serve with cream sauce. Creamed.-Cut a bunch or two of asparagus into one-inch lengths and boil until tender. Drain and put into rich, white sauce, rather thick, for the asparagus contains water that thins it; heat thoroughly, season with salt and paprika and serve very hot In Rolls.-Remove the center from stale, rather long, pointed rolls and fry the rolls golden brown in deep fat Drain on brown paper and keep hot Cut a bunch of asparagus, in the meantime, into one-inch lengths and boil until tender. Drain and put in a double boiler with a cupful of milk. Add the yolks of five eggs and stir until thick and smooth. Set .son with salt and a little grated nutmeg and pour into the hot rolls. White sauce may be used instead of the egg sauce if desired. Baked Asparagus.-Cut asparagus into inch lengths and boil. Drain and put a layer in a buttered baking c" ish. Season with salt and pepper, dot with bits of butter, sprinkle with crumbs and finely-minced boiled egg. Add more asparagus and repeat in the order mentioned until the dish is filled. Eave crumbs on top and bake brown. Served Cold.-Boil until tender stalks of asparagus and drain them. Chill them and serve them with may onnaise, with hollandaise or with tar tar sauce. It can also be served with a sauce of oil and vinegar, sprinkle with chopped cucumber pickle. Bolled.-Boiled asparagus can be served with melted butter, pepper and salt, either on toast or without it; with drawn butter or white sauce, with a little hot cream poured over it or with melted butter and lemon Juice. Worth Knowing. No odor of cooking should greet the guest in a private home, or even an apartment -which claims to be of the exclusive class. A simple and agreeable deodorizer may be made of a handful of cloves, allowed to scorch with bits of orunge peel OL a tin plate in the oven. This mixture imparts a fragrance not un like that of carnations, and, scattered about the rooms, it will completely destroy the odor of cooking vegetables o?* roasting meats In the country the wise housewife may gather sweet elovei and the sprigs, if dried out, will impart a fresh and delicious fragrance to the house linens all next winter. Lavender, that standby of old-time housekeepers, may be purchased in lit tle bags at trifling cost and makeB a delightful fragrance for the linen closet. New Idea for Doughnuts. When frying doughnuts have a dish of boiling water beside the hot fat As you remove the doughnuts from the frying kettle dip hastily into the boiling water. This removes all grease and renders them more health ful than they would otherwise be. There is another point not to be despised when lard ls as expensive as it is at present After the water cools the grease may be skimmed from the top and used again. One will be surprised to see the amount of fat that will rise. Orange Parfait One cupful of orange juice, one cup? ful of granulated sugar, one ten-cent bottle of maraschino cherries, one pint of whipped cream. Dissolve su gar in orange Juice; chop cherries fine, whip cream stiff. Mix ingredi ents, add one tablespoonful of gelatin dissolved in cold water. Put in mold and pack in ice and salt from tiree to four hours. Economical Sponge Cake. Two eggs, one cupful sugar, one half cupful hot water, one cupful flour, Itt teaspoonfuls baking powder and a pinch of salt Beat the yolks with half the sugar, then add hot water, then the remaining sugar and flour, sifted with baking powder and salt Lastly fold the stiffly beaten whites in. Bake 20 minutes in medium oven. Flavor to taste. Fried Fish for Breakfast Among the seasonable fish which fry most satisfactorily for breakfast are perch, butter fish, porgies, floun ders, river bass and both weakfish and whitefish and smelts. Any one of these, fried and se -ved with potatoes in some form, prefer ably creamed or baked, make a most delicious Lenten breakfast menu.
