No Need of Having Dyspeptic Most physicians, especially io the : northern United States, say that fried food ie responsible for most o< the dyspepsia. especially in the south, where I frying Is most prevalent. This ia do doubt true, in a broad ana average way. but it to not necessary that it should be true. Too much gre&eu j of any klod, and in any way. is cer- ' tainiy bad for the dloestton; but the ; conclusion must not be Coo hastily , reached that fried food is necessarily | ; greasy. Grease for cooking should be | ( looked upon merely as as a medium for : communicating a high degree of heat. ; ! It is not usually possible to oook things ; I In water to a higher temperature than 212 degrees, and hence in many caaee ; it Is n.oeesary to oook meats, etc., a i long while at this temperature to get j them d^no. But it is easily possible to ; cook things equally welt dooe in grease in a much shorter time, on account of J the higher temperature that may ho j reached?sometimes 300 to 400 degrees , The true way to cook in grease is to 1 , get H very hot before Introducing the ! I meat or other article. When It Is i ' dropped in the higher degree of heat j . immediately chars the outer surface i ! and closes the pores, so that the grease ; cannot get Inside. It is important to ' keep the beat up. and not to put the : articles into the grease so fast as to j lower the temperature. When dona, i ' 'hoy should be Immediately removed j , and laid on a doth to absorb the a<V I he ring grease. Many cooks take a | frying pan off the Are wtth the egg? . j or moat In ft. all cooked, and leave it I i so until served. This is the next best I : way to let tbe grease soak through to *? "rk"? ???? m* trt Mtsk I j U?r '.ririru. iiiv *vt# . , the grtase In. and the very best way I j to promote dyspepeta Is to put the ar; tlck?B in the frying pan to cook when * the grease is not hot enough. J Frying le generally a moat wasteful ' manner of oooklng, for the reason that j so much of the crease Jo thrown away after the article Is cooked. Tbie le geuI orally unnecessary. If the frying baa 1 Lorn properly done, the grease has Dot I taken up much from the article cooked. | The grvase may be poured from the ! i trying pan Into a vessel of hot water, I wh?n most of the foreign matter wtit i -v-ttie and the pure grease wHl float, i after somewhat washing Itself In the <vt>ter. It may then be used again and with the boot results. There is naturally a smell from any I frying grease. In Europe, where many ' kinds of grease and ofis are used for j frying, people become acvustos^d to : the different smells, and do not mind them. In this country ail are aecusi ,omed to the smell of frying hog lard, i When it was first proposed to oook I *lth cotton oil the new smell was objectionable. especially the smell of ' Tidly red nod oil, and thus there grew i i pre>ud1ce against Its use. Another I <'uuse lor bad results with the oil was the fact that often times the oook wouM not watt for the oH to get hot iv.u^h before putting K In the article*. When using lard, the cook would naturally watt for it to melt, and It would get hot without provoking Impatience. T?ut the oil looks ready when It Is first !>ut In the frying pan. and there Is a temptation to use K too soon. There I has been much steady work done by those who make cooking oompounas j from cvitoo oil. wkh a view to reducing or disguising the smell. The reeult has n most gratifying. There are aevJ eral concerns making a spect&Ky ot I It refined for use tn cooking, without . further manipulation. The Weaeon Pro| 'vs? company of Savannah, On., has j he<-n \-ery wrcceoeful in this line aixl j will be rind to mail cook books, i There are ateo a number of highly , i satisfactory cooking greaaeo made ) from cotton ofl and beef fat. such as "Paimatena" ond "Snow Drift," both of whkh products are e*tenafveiy 1 manufactured by the Southern Cotton (XI Company of the Carolina* aod '" eorgia at their work* In Savnnnah.
