Then they should be cut into small slices, sprinkled with grated cheese and covered with a, cream sauce, seasoned with salt and pepper, and baked in a baking dish for about twenty minutes. Mashed artichokes are prepared by boiling them and pressing them through a collander and then serv ing them with salt, pepper and but ter. They may also be served in a thick soup or like creamed pota toes. Cold sliced roots dressed with French dressing are a pleas ant variety. Chicken Pie Tempts— Hr.ve the chicken prepared as for fricassee. Put in a kettle—without liver, heart, etc.—and* cover with boiling water and cook gently for ►about two hours. (The liver, etc., should be cooked separately and used for sandwich filling or some other dish calling for chicken gib lets.) Have ready five or six pota toes, pared and diccq or cut into cubes with French potato cutter. Add to the chicken and cook for twenty minutes more, or until the potatoes are tender. Now add salt, pepper, a little chopped parsley and two tablespoons of flour mixed smooth with a little cold water, and boil three minutes more, stirring to keep srpobth. Have ready a large baking dish lined with good pie dough. Pour chicken and potato mixture into it, cover with crust, brushing with a little milk to glaze. Bake for about twenty minutes, making sure that lower crust is done. If you like the lower crust may be lightly cooked before the chicken is put in the dish. The dish is greatly improved if after the chicken has been cooked the bones and most of the skin are re moved. The meat should be left in as large pieces as possible. Good Baked Tomatoes— Peel some smooth, thoroughly ripe tomatoes, cut them in two; sprinkle with pepper and salt, and put a bit of butter on each half; place on an earthen pie dish and bake in a hot ov^n until done, which will require from thirty to forty minutes. Dust with powder ed sugar when serving. Muffins— One way of making muffins easily is to master a good recipe and then vary that by adding things to it. Here is a good master recipe: Sift together three times two cups of flour, four tablespoons of sugar, four even teaspoons of baking pow der, a half teaspoon of salt. Then add one beaten egg and one cup of milk, mixed, beat the batter thor oughly, and lastly stir in two table spoons of fat, melted. Pour into hot, greased muffin tins, filling them two-thirds full, and bake about twenty-five minptes in a hot- oven, reducing the heat toward the last. ^ To this master recipe you can make these additions for different kinds of muffin: / Fruit Muffins—Add a half cuW of way, is PhiJli^TMilk of Magnesia. currants, raisins and chopjvd ^hyskiaiS?

Individual Shortcakes— There is no way of serving short cake quite so dainty as serving an individual shortcake to everyone at the table. And there’s no more delicious or time-saving way of making these individual shortcakes than with appetizing little fingers of light, fluffy sponge cake. To make a shortcake, all you need to do is split the finger, fill with crushed fruit or berries sweet ened to taste, then cover with whipped cream and top off with slices of fruit or whole berries. Creamed Cauliflower— Break the head into flowerlets as soon as it is cooked and season it with half a teaspoon of salt and a third *of a teaspoon of pepper. Have,ready, for every pint of,cauli flower cream sauce hiade from a tablespoon of butter, half a tea spoon of flour and two cups of milk seasoned with half a teaspoon of salt. The sauce should be cooked for about twelve minutes, until it is smooth and thick. ' ? Creamed cauliflower can be serv ed plain or on slices of toast. Chop ped parsley or lemon juice can be added to the sauce just before it is poured over the cauliflower. Boiled cauliflower can be served with lempn juice, pepper, salt, grat ed nutmeg and melted butter. Cauliflower au gratin is made from cauliflower broken in large pieces before it is boiled, and then cooked for about twenty minutes. Put the pieces in a baking dish and sprinkle them with grated cheese —Parmesan is the best. Then sprinkle the dish with fine bread crumbs and small pieces of butter. Pour over the whole a sauce made from two beaten egg yolks, to which is added a saltspoon of salt, a teaspoon of lemon juice, two tablespoons of grated cheese, a tablespoon of melted butter and a little pepper. Brown in the oven. Too Much ^ACID ROCKEFELLER— Three solid blocks, nearly eight acres, in the heart of Manhattan Island are to be known as “Rocke feller Center.” King George II of England gave this land to found King’s College. King’s College % is now Columbia University and still owns the land. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., leased it from the University for eighty- seven years at a rent of $3,000,000 a year, and is financing the construc tion of a group of buildings which are expected to surpass in beauty and utility anything yet attempted anywhere. Only unlimited millions can handle an operation of this magnitude. Mr. Rockefeller is do ing this as a public service rather than for the possible profit. Nobody today is afraid that the Rockefellers are trying to seize con trol of the United States. They are not that kind of people. LAMONT— A Methodist minister’s son got a job as a financial reporter on a New York paper. He attracted the attention of J. P. Morgan, the elder, who offered him a job and then took him into partenrship. He now ranks next to J. P. Morgan, II, head of the famous banking house. Thomas W. Lament spent a day recently giving a Senate Commit tee the lo^down on international debts. When he had. finished, the Senators and public who read the report of Mr. Lament’s testimony had a new and clearer understand ing of the functions of an interna tional banker. Instead-of the en ormous profits which banks are supposed to make through lending money to foreign governments, Mr. Lament made it clear that the pro fits were nevef'more than 5 per cent, often less, divided among hundreds of thousands of investors in foreign loans, and that the House of Morgan sometimes got as much as a quarter of one per cent fee for managing the distribution of these loans, but often did the job for nothing. , The foolish idea that great for tunes are made by robbing the pub lic is gradually being dispelled. PROSPERITY— What do we mean by prosperity? A return to the boom times of 192,8? What is the standard of pros perity? I make no claim to being a prop het, but I think that we are all foolihg ourselves if we expect prices of goods, wages, rents, salaries and other items of income and outgo to return to the high figures of four years ago. I think it is much more likely that when we recover our economic balance we will find •that' we are about where we were before the great war, with the exception that a higher percentage of our people will be earning a living income than was the case in 1913. Then something will happen kgain to make us believe that we can all get rich quick and we will have another crazy speculative boom and another panic. That is what has always happened, and what has be< SALARIES A lot ofj the sala tives. a big s pie wi th th pass*** away, and in the ^laws-specify that la^^M shall have the prope: ^VQps on inheritances are fairestv of all taxes.

LIFE— Scientists are still searching for the origin of life as we know it. They are agreed that all life came originally from the sea, that pur earliest ancestors were minute aquatic proto-plasms. Now Dr. Assar Hadding, Swedish geologist, in a paper published by the Smith sonian Institution of Washington, holds that life originated by the chemical combination of elements in warm pools of water, when the earth first began to cool off suffi ciently to allow rain to condense on its surface. i But the important thing about life is not how it originated, but what we do with it while we have it. I think people today are much less concerned about where they came from and what happens after they have finished with life than they ever have been and are more interested in getting the most out of living. WRITING— There would be no need for written words if everybody could draw pictures. The picture writing of the American Indians answered every purpose of communication. And the written and printed language of China and Japan is simply a modified, conventional ized and amplified system of draw ing pictures to represent ideas. The trouble with picture writing is that it gives no clue to the spok en word. Chinese in different prov inces speak almost totally differ ent languages, yet all can read the ideographs. In Japan the ideo graph which stands for the name of Premier Inukai can be pro nounced in four different ways, all equally correct. In his native city he is called “Kogashi,” but most Japanese pronounce his name “Ki” or “Takeshi,” while it is equally correct to refer to him as “Tsuyo- shi.” In his own family, under the Japanese custom, his name is nev er used at all arid he is only re ferred to as “Otosan,” which means “Honorable Father.” TREASURE— Reports from Guyaquil, Ecuador, say that many gold relics of th'e ancient Inca Kings have been found in the mountains near the Colombian border. Nobody can guess how many thousainds lions of dollars worth of gold ’ still hidden in caves of the Andie! When Pizarro, the Spanish con queror of South America, rob Atahualpa, the last of the I Kings, he obtained enough gold to fill what he ^described very large roorjrt, but it has been believed ihat Atahulapa aged to secrete the larger pa Hie ciivo r / X ed once, twice, three times at charming new dress, went and in a surprisingly short had completely transformed last season’s dress.
