Henrietta D. Grauel
Just now the value of our vegetables
is not decided so much by their nutri
tiou as by their keeping qualities.
Beans, potatoes and onions, parrots,
parsnips and cabbage and sueh foods
will grace our tables for several mouths
to come. If it was not for the Western
and Southern fruits the apple is the
only fruit the Middle and Northern
states would see from fall to spring.
The ordinary family is but little dis
turbed by the keeping qualities of veg
etables and fruits. The grocer attends
to all this and though prices are higher
t:au when every family had their own
storage rooms we willingly pay for the
accommodation.
But now aud theu a box or a barrel
of apples is sent in from the farm or a
bargaiu found ia a large quantity of
vegetables. Oftener than hot the bar
gain i< anything but a bargain for some
vegetables have poor keeping qualities
aud must be used at once.
Russet apples and greenings ripen
slowly, that is the meat of these ap
ples ripens after they have been off
the tree some time. So they, and Seek
n<>.furthers and pippins are called win
ter apples.
Ti-.e Baldwin is the best of the Xew
Kngland w inter apples but in the Mid
dle states it degenerates and is a sum
mer fruit though if well cared foi it
will last until January and still be crisp
and mellow.
In keeping winter fruits and vege
table? greatest care is necessary. Only
the outer covering or the skin protects
the food from the air. While it is firm,
intact and smooth decay will only start
from over-ripening: this comes from too
high a temperature. In storage houses

Standard Theatre's Offerings

Sellers of the Standard Theatre for

tertainer and equal to the reputation of
this management for high-class shows.
Bring your lonesomeness to the Stand
aril Theatre to-night and laugh off the

Storage Foods
the process is arrested by keeping the
| air at about thirty-eight degrees.
If one has a basement cool dark bins
may be partitioned off and storage of
vegetables, eggs and some fruits man
aged nicely. But no matter how care
fully food is stored there is bound to be
some loss of food value: this can be de
termined by weighing a tuber in the
fall and again in the spring. The liquid
or juices stored in the vegetable evap
orates and this causes it to become
lighter and lighter until it withers
away.
In cooking winter vegetables the
cook must try ot restore this moisture
as far as possible. This is done by soak
ing the vegetables after they are
I scraped or pared. As the natural
moisture leaves the stored foods their
flavors become stronger so that they
require blanching or par-boiling before
they are cooked. This improves the
flavor and taste of any vegetable that
j has been stored until it has commenced
to crow strong.
The process, then, of cooking winter
vegetables is to first pare or scrape
them and let them lie in cold water for
a few hours. Then put them to cook in
! cold water that is not salted but has a
bit of cooking soda in it. After five
minutes boiling pour this off. It will
have a strong odor and contain the bit
ter principle of vegetable. Add fresh
cold salted water and finish the boiling
'as usual. If you know the value of
steamed cooked vegetables, you will,
after tbe par-boiling or blanching pre
lliminary, proceed to finish the c 'king
in a steamer. Steam cooked vi les
are far superior to those cooUt.o a
great quantity of water.

AMUSEMENTS
■ \
MAJESTIC
Friday afternoon and evening,
"Billy, the Kid.''
Saturday afternoon and evening,
"Damon and Pythias.''
-OBPHEUM
Every afternoon and evening, high
cluss vaudeville.
COLONIAL
Daily continuous vaudeville and pic
tures.
"Billy, the Kid"
A strong, well written melodramatic
play, full of exciting incidents and tell
ing a well told story with plenty of
good comedy scenes to relieve the ten
tion, is what the great western play,
"Billy, the Kid," is reported to be.
It deals with scenes ami incidents which
tend to make a man's veins run a little
faster, but the story is told in a way
that makes it quite logical. Berkeley
Haswell, who plays the title role of
"Billy," will be remembered as playing
for a number of years the stellar roles
in plays where the hero is a boy, and
he is generally regarded as being'at the
hea.l of his profession and made a host
of friends wno will welcome him as a
full-fledged star. "Billy, the Kid."
will be the attraction at" the Majestic
Friday, matinee and night. Adv.*"*
"Damon and Pythias"
"Damon and Pythias," the greatest
classic and historical drama of the age,
will be produced in six parts at the -Ma
jestic n'ext Saturday, matinee and night.
"Damon and I'ytthias" is by far the
most notable feature triumph" ever pro
duced in America. In the picture mas
sive cities of ancient Greek architecture
are looted and burned; huge armies
dash iu colossal battle scenes; exciting
diariot races are lost and won as thou
sand spectators cheer their heroes. An
cient Grecian gardens are filled with
Grecian maidens in > lassie dances while
then are the exciting games of the
stadium. "Damon and Pythias" has
secured the endorsement of the Supreme
Lodge, every Grand and subordinate
lodge, representing a Knight of Pythias
in tthe United States and Canada." Edu
cators, clergy and laymen in every walk
of life are unanimous in pronouncing
"Damon and Pythias" the greatest
photo feature of t'he age. Adv.***
At the Orpheum
Do your Christmas chopping early
is tihe watchword of to-day. In fact the
proper way to shop nowadays is to have
it done early enough in the day so that
you can enjoy the rest and comfort
provided at the Orpheum, where bargain
prices in vaudeville attractions are also
the rale. See the "Pekin Mysteries"
to prove that the hand is quicker than
the eye. See them also to be convinced
that this troupe of six sensational Ori
ental artists, are the greatest of their
race in t>Ke way of wonderful illusion
ists. Dazzling stage pictures follow
each otiher in rapid succession, trans
forming the stage in flower gardens,
etc., and all of it seems to come ap
parently from nowhere. GoTgeous stage
settings, magnificent costumes, all of
them exceedingly costly and all of them
rare works of art by the natives of the
quaint east. A musical comedy couple,
agi'e and nifty youth, and a winsome
"girlie" are Cameron and Gavlord, who
accoiding to the press notices they have
received in other cities, will create a
record for popularity for an act of its
kind at ttlie Orpheum.
Xana, the cvvlonie, tempestuous and
beautiful dancer, is declared by critics
to have cav."l audiences oil over the
world to yiekl to her attractiveness an 1
talent. She will be assisted by Mong.
Alexis, and the act promises to be one
of the most artistic bits of the week's
new offering. TTie duo dances with
mathematical precision and Nana, in
her reckless abandon, exthibits a
strength that could scarcely be credited
to so small and supple a body. Some
other big Keith names of the hill in

senting "The Squarer;" Henry Lewis,

SICK SAILOR RELATES HIS
NORTH SEft EXPERIENCES
Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Liverpool, Nov. 24 —The hospital
ship China chartered by the British ad
miralty, put into Liverpool yesterday
with about two hundred sick sailors
collected from various warships in the
North Sea. Some were in rather bad
condition and ha*i to be carried on
stretchers to bhe waiting ambulances,
but the majority were able to walk.
Fromi one of the convalescents a small
idea of their life in the North Sea was
gathered. He said:
"tVe are getting all night in the
North Sea. It is beastly cold out there
but we don't mind. At times life is a
bit monotonous, but we bear it all
nicely.
"Some of our vessels had a look
more than once at the German ships
and if they would only come out wo
could settle the whole lot quicker with
our big guns. The Germans do*not
touch our big ships, but only the small
er ones. We give chase to their sub
marines when seen and make them
clear off, though mishaps will occur.
There are not so many German sub
marines aibout as people think. We
have plenty of sleep, good food and
hard wa/tehing and cruising. <
"Sofcie of us liave had a glimpse of
Helgoland, but bhe atmosphere was
misty and the plaee lies low. Some
of OUT destroyers looked in to see what
was going on but owing to the torpedo
nets they could not go far enough to
do damage."
SAMUEL A. DALEY DIES
Was Superintendent of Altoona Muni
cipal Water Workß
Altoona, Dec. 7. —Samuel A. Daley,
water superintendent, died yesterday,
aged 58. Six months ago he was strick
ed with apoplexy and had been in the
hospital ever since.
He had been the head of the muni
cipal water department for twenty
eight years, and it was largely due to
his efforts that a water system vvilued
at more than $2,500,000 was evolved
out of nothing. A wife and son sur
vive.

FLAN TO FEED STATE CAUSE
Commission Explains Method by Which
Money Will Be Spent When
Properly Appropriated
The State Game Commission, consid- ;
ering that the money that may he ap
propriated to its us<| for feeding game
in winter will como from the hunterß'
license fund, announces that every dol- !
lar appropriated for ♦he purpose will be
spent for the benefit of those who con- !
tribute to the fund, and to this end 1
will supply feed for gaino as follows:
"First—To game birds and animals
on State game preserves, whereon no
ono can hunt at any time for any pur
pose. These preserves are surrounded
by a single wire, a fire line and a line
of notices. Game comes and goes at
pleasure, and may be taken by sports
men outside of this sanctuary during
the open season for such game.
"Second —To game on State lands,
whereon it may be taken daring the
open season.
' '' Third—To game on private prop-
during the month of November are
contained in a report announced to-day
by the City Health Bureau. Generally
the milk samples were found to eon
tain small percentages of bacteria. The
first column to the riyht of the names
shows the age of the milk and repre
sents the number of hours si nee milk
ing, the second column shows the num
ber of bacteria per cubic centimeter in
each sample, the third column shows
the number of colon locilli per cubic
centimeter in each sample and the last
column shows the percentage of fat in
each sample:

j ertv, either wholly protected or entire*
1 ly open to all legitimate hunters. m
j "Fourth—lt private lands are postJj
j and no one permitted to hunt therei
| at any time, wo believe the game thei^
found should be given every help posf
I sible so that it may increase to the ut
j most and overflow iijto the surrounding.
I country to the benefit of sportsmen,
i just as it is done 011 the preserves ou
I State lands.
"If the land is open to all hunters,
we will feed the game, but we feel that
not duc cent of this money should be
; applied to the feeding of game on lands
posted against the ordinary hunter but
| open to the owner of such lands or his
friends. Experience toadies us that
| many people will try to secure a part
of this fund for personal private profit,
and we will surelv be imposed upon
unless you who are interested holp us
to protect vcur interest.
"Later on we will select agents
through which game in your county 13
to be fed and we hope you will help to
place feed whore it will make the best
return to you."
The Ilarrisburg Polyclinic Dispensary
will be open daily excopt Sunday at
3 p. m., at its new location. Front and
Harris streets, for the free treatment
of the wortny poor.
