Water in which vegetables are cooked contains flavoring, mineral matter and sometimes starch. It makes a desirable addition to soup. Potato water should not be used, as it is considered by some to be un wholesome. Rice water is rich in delicate, well cooked starch, and may be nicely used to furnish thickening as well as liquid to a soup. Onion wa ter may be used in a vegetable soup where meat is used. Water in which cabbage, cauliflower or turnips have been cooked furnish a foundation for a soup when these flavors are palat able. Careful cooks buy few mater ials for every-day soup making. The left-over bits of moat (which have not been handled or served), the juices from the meat plate, the water from the vegetables and the left-over veg etables furnish sufficient materials. Small quantities of raw uncooked veg etables may be scraped, cut fine and '•ooked in a small amount of water. To them add some stock from fresh meat or ham liquor, season and serve with bits of toasted bread. The veg etables should not be cooked in the ham liquor, or strong flavor may de ivelop. Tomato com'ines nicely with ham stock, as do potatoes and calary, | oysters and celery. Okra combines nicely with corn, or with both corn and tomatoes. Any of these soups from left-overs may be thickened by adding to them a few dry crusts of bread; allow them to soften and press, through a colan der, reheat and serve as a substantial dish for lunch or supper.—Heart of the House, in Woman's World for March.
