5 SOME OLD-FASHIONED DISHES. I
Recipes Used By Our
Scoffed
Kooooooooooooooooooo
From tho Sun.
The Impression seems to prevail
BomctlmoB that tho so-ailled old-fashioned
dishes are not worthy of much
thought or attention, and that tho In
gredients may ho thrown together In
the quickest manner possible, regard
less of the Issue. Nevertheless, the
real old-fashioned cookery still has
plenty of adherents, and Its creations
are by no means to bo scorned. If
they nro prepared carefully and nerved
properly they are not to be excelled.
Salted mackerel, such as Is usually
served broiled for breakfast, makes a
most appetizing dish for any luncheon
or Sunday night tea. Instead of broil
ing the fish, after It has been well
freshened, boll It Blowly In a spider
partly filled with water, to which huo
been added a bay leaf, half a dozen
pepper corns, three cloves, a slice of
onion, and a suspicion of vinegar.
When the fish is cooked, place It upon
a heated platter, and pour around It
a well-seasoned cream dressing. Or
the freshened mackerel may be boiled
In equal parts of milk and cream.
"When tho fish Is cooked, put It upon
the dish It la to bo served upon and
set It where It will keep hot. Put over
the fire fn n small .saucepan a heaping
tablespoonful of butter, nnd ns soon
as it Is melted stir Into It a level
spoonful of flour; then gradually stir
Into this tho liquid In which tho llsh
has been cooked. Season with a little
cayenne pepper, and when tho dress
ing haA thickened strain It over the
prepared fish. Sprinkle chopped pars
ley over tho whole and serve at once.
Pork and parsnips may not sound
very Inviting, but, properly prepared,
are one of tho most delicious of dishes.
Take a thick Iron spider and cover the
bottom with slices of sweet salt pork
cut Into pieces nbout two Inches square.
Over the pork nrrange a layer of sliced
parsnips and above place sliced pota
toes. Pour In enough water to cover
the parsnips, put a close-fitting cover
upon the vessel, place It over the back
of the fire and let Its contents simmer
slowly until tho vegetables are tender.
Then remove tho vegetables to a heat
ed dish, but let tho pork brown lightly
before placing It with tho vegetables:
only a small amount of liquid should
bo left in the spider; to this add a
little butter, and dredge some Hour
over It, season with popper, nnd stir
in cream or rich milk enough to make
sufficient gravy; when the Ingredients
have cooked together, pour the gravy
over the vegetables and meat and it
Is ready.
Another manner of serving parsnips
with pork Is thus: Clean pork of tho
size desired, score tho rind and place
Avieat side down, In a drip saucepan.
4Hr the parsnips into halves length
Wfe and place them with the pork.
Add a small amount of water, cover
the vesel closely and place it over a
slow fire. Cook until the meat and
vegetables are tender. Kcmove the
cover so that If there Is any liquid left
It may evaporate and the vegetables
take on a golden color. Turn the pork,
putting the rind side to the bottom of
tho vessel, and let It become well
browned; then place it in a hot platter
and arrango the parsnips around the
meat.
PIcked-up codfish, prepared in an ap
petizing manner, is not an inexpensive
dish, as many consider it. Indeed, a
housekeeper who excelled in making
delicious dishes of salt cod, when
asked to "give us creamed codfish for
luncheon, it's cheap," replied: "Por
terhouse steaks are Just as cheap."
For two cups of picked fish take about
three cups of milk and cream. Put tho
fish In a saucepan and cover It with
cold water. Let the water heat slow
ly to tho boiling point, then drain it
all off, and add one cup each of cream
and milk. Again put tho fish over tho
fire and heat. Roll a pieco of butter
the size of an egg in flour and mix
them together; gradually add to tho
butter three parts of a cup of cream
and stir this Into the cream mixture,
stirring them thoroughly together. Sea
son tho fish with pepper and turn It
upon a platter holding squares of but
tered toast. 'Place slices of hard boiled
eggs over the top. Condensed milk Is
an excellent substitute for cream.
To make an oId-fasahloned oyster
fricassee, put the liquor from one pint
of oysters in a small granite pan wlih
a heaping tablespoonful of cracker dust
and set it over tho fire. Plane the oy
sters In another pan with two ounces
of butter. Cover, tho pan and let the
oysters cook over a slow heat until
their ednres are ruffled. Have ready a
hot platter with pieces of buttered
toast about two inches square, and
when the oysters are done take them
out with a wire spoon and lay .them
upon the toast. Turn the broth mix
ture Into the pan where the oysters
were cooked, season it with salt and
cayenne pepper and when It again
comes to the boiling point stir In half
a cup of cream and turn the mixture
over the oyster toast.
Haked squash Is not often seen upon
tho uu-io-dats menu, but It Is one of
the best ways of cooking this winter
vegetable. Tho squash Is cut Into
rltces of the size desired, nnd then
pecltd, and .the seeds and soft part
removed. It requires from one to ono
nnd one-half hours to bake. Eaten hot
with butter and seasoning, it is a good
substitute for sweet potatoes.
Winter squash can also be baked by
cutting It into halves and removing
the seeds and soft part, then .turning
he cut sldo down In a pan to bake.
When it is done scrape the vegetable
from the shell and season plentifully
with futter, salt and pepper. Squash
l drier when baked, and that Is tho

roriHon this method of cooking Is tho
best.
Kinky, tender shortcakes, with slew
ed ftults, rich with sugar, between
them, and Indian pudding with maple
hrup, were favorite desserts In bygone
days; but plctnaklng was whnt our
Ktn.-idtnothors excelled In. Tho golden
1 ttmpkln and custard pies, rich with
cream und eggs, are welcomed ns much
now ns formerly, even If tho pumpkin
pie Is not baked In a biscuit tin nnd
served in square pieces. Tho deep ap
ple plo of former days, known as "pan
dowdy," Is most TXrellent. Take n deep
earthen dish thnt will hold about throe
quarts. Peel, quarter, nnd core enough
tart ripples to 1111 this dish to the tup.
Spiinklo over .tho apples half n cup
of sugar nnd one cup of molasses nnd
n very little cinnamon: pour over tho
whole half a cup of water; cover the
top with a plo crust nbout as thick ns
for a chicken pic; place the dish in a
slow oven and bake nbout two nnd
oiK-hnlf hours. When the pie Is taken
Ircm the oven take a silver spoon nnd
break the crust Into tho apples In sev.
crrj places. Then let It stand a couple
of hours before serving.
Here Is n lemon plo rvclpo that was
found In nn old mnnuscrlpt book nnd
marked "good:" Press out the juice
from a large lemon Into two teacups of
molasses and grnto Into It tho drlnl
peel from another lemon. Cover a pinto
with a thin layer of good plo crust and
spread over It one-hair of the mixture.
Lay over another thin sheet of crust
nnd spread It with tho remaining mix
ture. Again cover with a top crust nnd
.thoroughly bake. This was said to bo
nn excellent nnd tempting dessert.
This Is the way to make grandmoth
er's orange gingerbread squares, which
were always to be found ready when
wanted: To one nnd three-fourths
pounds of molasses put twelve ounces
of sugar, four ounces of fresh yellow
orange pool, chopped very lino, ono
ounce each of ginger and allspice, nnd
two and one-fourth pounds of Hour.
Jlelt twelve ounces of butter nnd stir
well into the other Ingredients. Cov
er the dish holding the mixture and
lay It by for twelve hours; then roll
tho stuff out thin with ns little flour
as possible and cut It into strips about
three Inches wide, and with tho back of
a knlfo mark them In tho form of
checkers. Heat tho yolk of an egg
light and stir Into it three-quarters of
a cup of milk, lirush tho squares with
this liquid and place them in the oven
to bake. Ilrush the cakes a second
time with tho liquid ns soon ns they
are removed from tho oven baked.

This Is Intended l'nrticuliuiy for the
.Mothers.
Hecause tho milk-teeth, must, In the
course of nature, fall out In a few years,
to give place to tho permanent set,
parents nro npt to nssumo that It is
useless to pay special attention to
them; they think It will be time enough
to instruct tho child In tho care of the
teeth when he has his permanent set.
Tills Is a mistake.
In the first place, It Is never too early
to inculcate good habits in the child,
nnd his permanent teeth will always
be better taken care of If ho has been
taught to brush tho temporary set
from tho time when he can use a tooth
brush. It Is also In tho interest of the child's
and the man's good looks, comfort and
health, that the milk-tooth should bo
preserved as long ns possible. Ono of
their most important functions Is to
keep a place In the jaws for tho second
set, and It they fall out too soon tho
second teeth may also come too soon,
and out of their regular place; then
the later teeth .will not have room
enough, and will bo twisted sldcuiso
or pushed In front of, or behind, the
others In tho row.
Tho first teeth, like the second, nro
required, also, for the proper mastica
tion of tho food, which Is all the more
necessary In . the growing child, who
needs more nourishment than an older
person.
Finally, the appearance of a child
with three or four open spaces among
his teeth Is far from being attractive,
nnd parents should bo nshamed to see
them ns a consequence of their own
neglect In not watching properly over
the preservation of. the milk teeth.
As soon as tho teeth nppenr they
should bo cleaned with a soft cloth,
and when the child is old enough, a
little brush should be put Into his
hand, and ho should be taught tho use
of It. After this the mother or tho
nurse should seo that It Is used regu
larly. Tho mouth of every child should be
examined two or three times a year
by the dentist, and any little cavities
should be stopped with a temporary
filling. Indeed, as much care should be
taken of the first as of the second sot
of teeth, for they are, In their tem
porary way, just as "necessary to
health, beauty and comfort. Youth's

WAX FOIt Till: CO.UI'I.KMO.V.
It Is XcecsMirv to Stiller lo Ho Heiut
tlfnl. Prom tho London Standard. '
Wo hnvo heard of a "waxen pallor"
ns nddlntr to the Interest or n lovely
heroine In works of fiction, but we nev
er before heard of any one trying to ne
qulro It by eating wax candles. Yet
that Is whnt a girl Is said to hnvo done
at Worcester. Vith far too complete
success, ns she 1ms just died in tho In
firmary from the effects. It seems a
most extraordinary story. Tho only
thing not strange about It is the girl's
death, supposing sho really did cat the
candles. Some kind nro edible enough,
it Is true, especially in cold climates,
but they nro made of grease, not wax.
Tallow candles are, according to arctic
explorers, regarded as a great delicacy
by tho Ksklmos, and by all accounts
they would not como amiss up at Daw
son City this winter. 13ut wax is a
totally different matter. It Is not di
rectly poisonous, In tho ordinary sense
of tho word, nnd a little might do no
harm, but It must ho absolutely Indi
gestible. Tho wondor Is how any Pane
person could come by such an extraor
dinary Idea as that her complexion
would be Improved by a diet of this
kind. There are things which do im
prove the comploxlon. Thoro Is arsen
ic, taken In very minute quantities;
there Is sulphur and iron, and other
things which doctors nro In tho habit
of prescribing In propor cases. And, no
doubt, there aro various less orthodox
subRtanccs or tho order of domcstlo
romedlas which enjoy a groat nnd
wholly Imaclnnry reputation for
"clearing the skin." It may bo any
thing from cnmomllo ton to gin. Wo-
men of tho lower classes have unbound
ed faith In tbeso remedies especially
in the gin, and educated women nra
surprisingly ready to accept tho sug
gestions of Icnoranco and superstition
in such mutter?.
But who over heard of wax candles?
People havo been known actually to
admlro those mnrvcloua beauties whoso
heads adorn tho shop windows of fash
ionable hairdressers; and It Is possible
that an Ignorant girl might, by iv con
futed association of ideas, conceive tho
notion that eating wax would produco
tho charming complexion exhibited by
a wax figure. From that to a diet
of candles would 'bo nn easy stop. Tho
fomlnlno nnturo is capable of such he
roin efforts In tho pursuit of beauty
that no sufferlnc would bo too great
to undei'21. no risk too great to run.
Incredlblo as tho fact may seem, It Is
staled on good authority that the re
cent shocking death of a lady from
the use of nn explosive halt-wash has
served rather as an advertisement
than a warning. Other ladles have
sluco Insisted upon h'avlng their hair
done with the sumo deadly compound,
choerfully encountering the risk of un
told suffering on tho oft chnnco of im
proving their appearance. Where van
ity Is cor.corned ronnon ceases to exist.
All tho tribe of quack beautlflers thrive
upon this weakness. In spite of Innu
merable wnrnlnsB, women will cover
their faces with noxious preparations
that can do nothlntr but injure tho
skin, they will pay fabulous prices for
bottles of rubbish, they will starve
thomrclvos, squeeze their unfortunate
orvn-ns out of all recognition, and com
mit a thousand fantastic follies. They
nro the martyrs of vanity, and tho
Worcester girl was only rather bolder
nnd more original than the rest. Eat
ing candles is a novel method of im
proving the complexion, but It Is not a
whit more futile than bathing In asses'
mill: rr using precious salves. Very
likely the Worcester girl suffered from
hvstorln. which often shows Itself In
a capacity for eating strange things,
even noodles nnd pins. Hut hysteria Is
not easily separable from the exagger
ated vanity which makes the ordinary
victim of the beauty quack; and it is
quite likely that .It the virtues of wax
candles aro only assorted loudly enough
by come ono or other, there will bo a
largo demand for the now "treatment"
for bad complexions, in spite of the un
toward fate of Its Inventor.

Lilian Itell Says American .lion Uxccl
All Others ns IIiiNhniidi.
"American men nro the best hus
bands In the world," writes Lilian
Toll In an nrtlcle entitled "On the Sub
let of Husbands" in tho Woman's
Homo Companion. "If these dissatis
fied American wives could only know
that an nil-wise Providence hnd, In
the American man, given us tho best
nrtlcle in tho market, nnd that when
we rebel at our lot we nro simply prov
ing that wo do not deserve our good
fortune, they would never even discuss
the subject of having any other nation
ality. "Of course, In every nation thoro
is a iias? of men who are ns noble, as
high-minded, as chivalrous as even the
most captious American girl could
wish. Hut t refer to the general run
of mn when I say that there is some
thing about, men born outside of Amer
ica, a native selfishness amounting to
a sort of callousness; a lack of percep
tion regarding the fineness of woman
hood, which, summed up In a few
words, might be called a metal brutal
ity, which well nigh unfits them for
close social contact with the supersen
sitive American women. And just as
surely as American women persist In
disregarding this subtle yet unmis
takable truth, just so surely will they
lay themselves open lo these soul
bruises of which American men, as a
race, nro incapable of Inflicting. I say
they are incapable of inflicting them,
because American men, In tho face of
everything said ntul written to the
contrary, aro. In regard to women, tho
llnest-gralned race of men in the world.
If at first you aro Inclined to question
tho truth of that stntement consider tho
men who havo been educated abroad.
How much is loft tf their American
ism? To be sure hej :vo cultured.
They understand music and art, and
always wear gloves; but are gloves
csFentlal to a happy homo?
"Now, this is all general. J beg that
tho wayfaring man, though a fool,
will not Imagine that these strictures
are true of every man, who is not an
American, or that nil American men
nra ' perfect. I hardly think on tho
whole, that I need fear that 1 shall
bo thought to consider all American
men perfect. Hut I do wish' to state
clearly and frankly my admiration for
American men as a race. And when
an American man is a gentleman, ho
is, to my mind, tho most perfect gentle
man that any race can boast, because
Ills good manners spring from his
heart, and thoro aro a few of us old
fashioned enough to plead that polite
ness should go deeper than tho skin."

The Ono That Is Host Known and the
KonsouH lor Choosing It.
I'rom tho Hartford Courant.
The term "num. do plume" is not good
French nnd thoio Is a pretty general
determination to regard It as not good
Hngllsh, either, and to drop It for tho
more sensible nnd simple expression
"pen name." Many reasons may exist
why an author may not wish to f-lgn
his own iirtiiio to his first attempt at
conquering a position in the world of
letters. Ho may feel a little shy nbout
coming before tho public in propria
persona, lie may prefer to remain un
known, ho may think that It Is easier
to win notoriety for nn alliterative or
catchy sobriquet, or he may feel that
in assuming n now nnmo it is easier
for hint to nbsuino tho character In
which ho wJshcs to appear before the
public. Thackeray used several names
because "ho wrote for different publica
tions In different styles, lie signed
himself sometimes "John Corks," some
times "Tho Prosor." or a Traveller in
London." For a certain set of papers
ho chose tho nnmo of "James Yellow
plush:" for another that ofMlehael
Angelo Tltmarch." Tho last was sug
gested by the nlcknamo given him by
a fric-nd in allusion to tho fact that he,
like tho great artist, had a broken nose.
The host known pen name In tho world
la "Murk Twain," which Jlr. Clemens
says "was the nom do plume of Capt.
Isaiah Sellers, who used to write river
pews over it op tho Nw Orleans
Picayune. Ho died in lbC3, and as ho
could no loncer use that signature, I
laid violent hands upon It without
asking permission of tho proprietor's
remains, and havo dono mv best to
mnko it remain viriat it was In his
hands a symbol and warrant thatj
whatever Is found In Its company may
bo gambled on as being the petrified
truth. How I havo succeeded it would
not be nodoat In mo to say."
MIm Alice French choso tho very at
tractivu name, "Octavo Tlianet," by
chance; M. Paul Hlouet combined tho
first Maine of his French' Grandfather
nnd tho last name of his Irish' grand
mother Into thf happy combination,
"Max O'Jtell," tMiiclnnatus H. Miller,
when lie Iwtfan to write po.Mry, wisely
concluded lhat it would woem more

like real poetry If ho signed his first
name "Joaquin." Many women have
won fame under masculine names, as
Oeorge KHot (Marianne Kvnns,) Char
les Egbert Craddock(Mary N. Mur
froe,) Georges Sand (Lucille An raw
DmU'Vunt.) In the last case tho auth
or's parents had the family name,
rtuntn, ch'nmrod to Sand. Tho three
rjronte sistera chose tho remarkable
taking names of Curror, Ellis and Ac
ton Uell, inventions which aro really
maiked by g3nlus, though they were
assumed ns a compromise between
masculine nnd feminine unn.es.
It Is pretty certain that tho best of
the short stories signed "Saxe Holm,'
which appeared In Scrlbner's early In
the seventies, were written by "H. II."
(Helen Hunt.) The secret was well
kept, nnd, ivj believe, the truth has
never lieon absolutely settled. As a
poet , tho name of Edward Robert
XUUwer Lyttou Is overshadowed by tho
signature, "Owen Meredith," taken
from remote Welsh ancestors and made
familiar to the English-speaking world
by tho favorite of our mothers, tho
rhymed novel, "Lucille." "Hcsea Big
low's" fame, however, Is merged in
that of tho real author, James Russell'
Lowell. The affectation of alllterativo
pseudonyms like "Jenulo June,"
"Grace Greenwood," "Fannie Plera,
"Frank Forrester," "Oliver Optic," and
"Timothy Tltcomb" has gone out. As
a rule, writers now sign with their
real names.
Once it was quite necessary for auth
ors to fire ldias at tho nubile from
tho ambush of n, pseudonym. Had
Junius signed his own name his liberty
nnd fortune, and possibly his stature,
would havo bec-n seriously curtailed.
At present there la no more reason for
authors to conceal their identity than
there is for preachers to do so. Journa
lists, of course, should and do mergo
their personality In that of their paper.
Reviewers should not sign book notices,
for if their personality Intrudes that of
the writer whom they are considering
becomes present and tho nrtltio ceases
to bo addressed strictly to tho public
ns It should be. With these excepta
tlons there Is no reason for conceal
ing the. names of a writer in theso
later days, for modestv Is rather an
old-fashioned virtue. Resides now no
body Is lowered In public estimation
even by writing verses. Tho use of tho
"pen name,' in j-plto of the recent ex
ample of "Inn Maclarcn," may ns well
bo abandoned. The mask is worn by
highwaymen for personal reasons, but
honest people no longer need it for
safety.

The weather
man says "It's going to blow up cold;"
so look after your outer and your inner
wear now.
Before you buy listen to a few com
mon sense words that may be the means
of saving you money.
Business is founded upon honesty
and good judgment Test both this way
at a money-back-if. you-want-it store.
Buy something. If it's good, so
much to the credit of judgment; if it isn't
good, so much against judgment go back
for your money. If you don't get your
money, that's enough the merchant is
dishonest. If you get your money, try
again; you may have struck the only bad
'bargain in the store.
Above all, satisfy yourself as to both
honesty and good judgment; but be sure
of honesty, for that protects you against
loss if judgment should fail.
Clothes especially ready-made often look right
in the store, but a week after don't fit.
We have but one answer to that: your money back
if you want it.
Yes; another answer; Suits and Overcoats that fit
