WHAT TO DO WITH LEFTOVER
BITS OF CHEESE.
Cheese is such a valuable food and is
so particularly good in combination
with starchy foods, and those lacking
fats and flavor, that it should be found
more often upon our tables.
When buying cheese it is best not
to get it in too large quantities, as it
drys and molds. To keep it from mold
ing. wrap it in a cloth wrung out of
vinegar. Orate all the small pieces
before they get too dry and keep them
In a jar with a tight cover.
In cooking cheese it is well to re
member that overheating it makes it
indigestible. When possible, add the
cheese to a hot dish only long enough
to melt it. A tablespoonful of cheese
will flavor a dish, and not even a scrap
should be thrown away.
Rutter crackers and sprinkle with
grated cheese and a dash of cayenne,
place in a hot oven and serve when
the cheese is melted.
Cheese Shell Filled With Cabbage.
—Boll until tender a small head of
young cabbage. Drain, chop and sea
son well. There should be about two
cupfuls. Put it in an empty edam or
pineapple cheese shell, in alternate
layers, with one cup of white sauce.
Heat in the oven until the sauce bub
bles; this will give the cabbage a
delicate cheese flavor. Boiled maca
roni or rice may be substituted for the
cheese if preferred.
Cheese Macaroons. —-Spread Maca
roons together with any tart jelly and
press together with a layer of snappy
cheese between.
Cream Cheese Crackers. —Take un
sweetened crackers. If not crisp set
them in the oven for a few moments.
Spreak with plum or currant jelly and
drop a teaspoonful of cream cheese in
the center of each cracker.
Cheese Balls.—Add a dash of ta
basco sauce to cream cheese, a pinch
of salt, paprika to make it pink, and
cream to make a paste. Form into
balls and roll in finely chopped black
walnuts. Serve on lettuce with French
dressing.
Pack cream cheese, well seasoned,
into red or green peppers; then serve
cut in slices. Very pretty.

FOOD FROM THE CHAFING DISH.
The chafing dish is like seasonable
weather, always seasonable, and may
be used to regale a theater or a porch
party equally entertaining.
The empty spit. Ne'er cherished wit; Mi
nerva loves the larder.
For a really enjoyable dish nothing
Is nicer than frogs' legs. Clean and
trim a dozen of the hind legs; season
with salt, pepper and roll in crumbs;
egg. then crumbs again and saute in
butter. Cook only a few at a time, as
they should be well browned in the
hot blazer. Serve with Sauce Tartare.
This is mayonnaise dressing with ca
pers, parsley, olives and pickles and
a half a small green onion added, all
chopped fine.
Scrambled eggs with cheese Is a
combination easily prepared in the
chafing dish. Scramble the eggs and
add just before serving four table
spoonfuls of grated cheese.
Sicilian Omelet. —Beat three egg*
slightly, add a teaspoonful of sugar
and a pinch of salt Butter the sides
of the blazer, turn In the omelet and
cook. Turn onto the platter and serve
with Sicilian sauce. Beat half a cup
of heavy cream, add a tableapoonful
of powdered sugar, and a tablespooo
ful of melted currant jelly, and one
nnd a half tablespoonfuls of powdered
macaroons.
Smothered Mushrooms. —Prepare a
cup of fresh mushrooms. Melt three
tablespoonfuls of butter, add the
mushrooms, sprinkle wtUi salt, paprika
and cook slowly for ten minutes.
Dredge with one and a half table
spoonfuls of flour and add half a cup

MAKES GAMES MORE EXCITING
Hitting the Ball Safely Is Most Inters
esting Feature of Contests for
Enthusiastic Fans.
The so-called "inside" baseball play
ing is all right and results in many
successful plays on the diamond.
Strong and consistent playing, how
ever. is the mainstay of any club.
When a player approaches the plate
the uppermost thought in the minds of
spectators is "Will he hit the ball?"
If the ball is struck and hit safely the
spectators are happy. Hitting the ball
safely is the most interesting feature
of the game, says the Boston Globe.
It is noticeable this season that the
players are hitting the ball well. They
seem to have made up their minds
that free and easy hitting is preferable
to bunting. This free hitting makes
the games more exciting. To be sure,
it may mean a larger score, but that
is not to be deplored. When there is
free hitting there are more chances for
brilliant catching, skillful fielding and
fast running. The scene is more ani
mated and fascinating. The more bat
ting there is the better pleased pa
trons will be all during the season.
Clarke tells how in 1904 he couldn't
use Hofman, and placed him with the

agreement. While with the Chicago.

$7,000 IS PAID FOR KEATING
That Sum Is Given by New York High
landers for Crack Twirler of
the Lawrence Team.
; The Highlanders have bought the re
lease of Ray Keating, the brilliant
| young pitcher of the Lawrence club
■ of the New England League.
Word was received from Lawrence
recently that Louis Pieper, manager of
the Lawrence team, had announced
that the New York Americans paid
$7,000 for Keating, a larger sum than
ever was paid for a New England
League player.
This deal has been hanging fire for
some time. It was said that Keating
will not Join the New York club until
the end of the New England League
season, but after paying this sum for
the youngster the Highlanders may re
quest immediate delivery.
Keating is only nineteen years old.
and until last season was content to
play on a high school nine. Jim
O'Rourke dug him up in the spring of
1911, and he had a brief trial with
Bridgeport. From Bridgeport. Keating
drifted to Lawrence, which club turned
him over to the Hamilton team of the
Canadian league, where he was a Btar.
He was recalled by Lawrence and has
been doing wonderful work all sea
son.
His first noteworthy feat was to
hold the Providence International
team to two hits in a practice game.
Since the New England season opened,
the youngster has not met with a de
feat. His greatest triumph was scored
on May 25, when he shut out Worces

PLAWK AS "LITTLE OLD FOX"
Does Not Pcscess Burst of Speed En
joyed by Others, but Is Master
of Art Of Pitching.
Clarke Griffith bears the title of til©
"Little Old Fox of Baseball."
Connie Mack rests in the name of
"Wily Connie."
A combination—if combination there
be—of the two names might designate
Eddie Plank.
To Plank, and Plank alone, belongs
the credit for the Athletlc-B' victory
over the Tigers in the opening game of
the series.
Time and again when a hit would
have neant a run Plank stood in the
center of the road to victory and turn
ed back Jennings' players. He forced
such players as Crawford and Gainer
and Moriarty to drop back when thou
sands cheered them on.
In the eighth Inning, with one run
in, Cobb on third, one man up and
Crawford at bat. Plank seemed the
least concerned. Occasionally he
would bluff to hold Cobb at third, and
when ho did pitch he didn't use speed,
he used nothing but a slow bending
curve over the outside of the plate.
Instead of giving Crawford a ball
that Sam was likely to hit far Into the
outfield, Plank, cool to the point of ex
treme self-confidence In his position,
would carefully measure Crawford
with his eye and then pitch.
The games are few and far between
when a man like Crawford will fall in
the wake of an opposing pitcher's
curves. Sam can, at least, be depend
ed upon to send out a sacrifice fly, but
Thursday, in the pinches, he could do
nothing but pop weakly to Collins.
Plank is an old master at the art of
pitching. Ho hasn't the speed of a
score of other pitchers in the league.
He hasn't the curves of as many more.
But he has the head. He knows the
batters. And he utilizes every speck
of his knowledge.
When Vitt came to bat for Onslow
on the ninth inning Plank hesitated.
He didn't know Vitt. He had never
seen him in an actual game.
The Athletics' twlrler involuntarily,
perhaps, glanced towards the bench,
where his leader, Connie Mack, was
sitting. Then he straightened and
sent a low, nasty curve over the out
side of the plate. Vitt didn't move.
"You don't know that boy." yelled
a spectator.
Plank worked about, then sent
across a strike. And still Vitt didn't
move.
Plank sent another and this one
Vitt met and the ball sped on a line
to Collins.
Vitt was out.
Then came Rouden. Plank knew, or
thought he knew, more of Louden than
of Vltt, and he sent across a high
straight one.
And Louden didn't move,
i Then Plank resorted to his famous
i cross-fire and Ix>uden singled.
"With Bush at bat and Louden on
first. Plank shot across a straight ball.
Bush met It and lined to Barry.
The game was over.
And Plank's strategy had won It.
It wasn't his support, because Ath
letic errors let In two of the Tigers'
three runs.
Ylngllng Is Promising.
Critics all around the National
league circuit are picking Earl Ylng
llng of the Dodgers as one of the
most promising young southpaws pick
ed up In the 1912 crop. Earl Is a
stockiiy built youngster and has loads
of smoke on the ball. He learned the
rudiments of baseball on town lots in
Dayton, Ohio, later played with the
high school team of that place and his
first real engagement was with the
Toledo Mud Hens. He soon attracted
the attention of major- league scouts
and now seems anchored with Brook
lyn. He is the son of a clergyman
and has a brother in professional base
ball.

CHILD'S SKIN TROUBLE
ITCHED VERY MUCH
1C Oliver St., Newark, N. J.—"About
five years ago my little girl had a red
•pot on the back of the head which
itched her very much. The sores
came 'in the form of a pimple full of
pus and would itch. She would scratch
until they would bleed, and wherever
it touched there would be another sore
until her wljole head was covered with
a hard scab. She could not sleep at
night for the pain, and I had to keep
her from school. I had her treated
and used a wash, and when I put it on
her head it burned her so I thought
she would go wild with the pain. 1
used Salve and home remedies
until I got so tired I thought she
would never get cured.
"Then I saw the advertisement for
Cuticura Soap and Ointment and sent
for a sample. The first night I used
Cuticura Ointment it loosened the
scab. Today she Is completely cured.
I used three boxes of Cuticura Oint

his lordship rode down to the lodge in
a terrible rage.
"I hear," said he to Mr. McMicken,
