All these experiments, however, rest ultimately upon gold. :If gold became dross, it would be necessary either to find a substitute metal possessing similar qualities, or to reorganize the existing monetary systems of the commercial nations. The latter is not beyond the reach of sane dismission and of definite proposals. Its essential defect would Iie in the absence of power to enforce international agreements in of financial weakness offered strong inducements for their viola- tion. The romantic dream of the sud- den dethronement of gold;from its place as the standard metal would be controlled; to begin with, by the cost of the processes of produc- tion of artificial gold. The mere discovery that gold could be pro- duced by chemical processes would not solve the problem, Unless ib could be produced in large quanti- ties at a cost materially below the cost of. quartz -mining in South Africa, the new process would re- main only an interesting toy. MONUMENTS TO POTATOES. There are monuments tt a 1 is to h m ,l beings, to animals, and, in ono case known to the writer, to a lifeboat, but it hes been reserved to Gor- many to rear monuments to the po- tato. At Offenberg, in Ger-Many, a pri- vate donde has erected a really beautiful monument in•honor of the potato. The upper part is a statue of Sir Francis Drake, who is al- leged to have introduced the plant Homemade Salted Nuts. Salted nuts are always accept- able as a part of the refreshment for afternoon and evening . enter- tainments, and a5 an adjunct„ to the simple home dinner as well as to the forinal one. They are expensive when theyare bought ready salted, and unless they are bought of a reliable cater- er they sometimes taste stale. They can be made easily,• inexpensively and well made at home. Peanuts are appetizing and so much less expensive than almonds that - it is a wonder they are not more often substituted for almonds, To salt them buy'unroasted peanuts —which can easily be purchased from any street vendor of peanuts. Shell them and remove the inside skins by letting them stand for a few minutes in boiling water, after which the skins may be removed easily between the thumb and fore- finger. Leave them in the hot wa- ter only long enough to wilt or gook the nuts. There are several ways of brown- ing the nuts. One: way is to put two teaspoonfuls of olive oil it must be of good quality—in a pan and roll the nuts in it. Thenput them in a brisk oven and leave' them there until they are brown. Another way is to put a table- spoonful of oil in the bottom of a chafing dish, turn the heat full on and drop in enough nuts at a time to coverofpan. the bottom the Keep the nuts moving ovet the flame until they have turned a de- licate brown. Almonds shelledand blanched, and pecans, carefully, cracked but not blanched, canbe salted in the saute manner as peanuts. When they are brown turn them in 11paper and sprinkle them with salt. Let thein cool before taking them from the paper, which_ absorbs the superfluous oil and makes them pleasanter to handle. Creole Secrets for Soup. Here are some rules that -the old Creole .cooks 'give for soup making -and if you have ever been in Louisiana you know that their soup is worth eninlatin•: ' To get the most goodness out of a soup bone it should be fractured every inch of its length. The soup should never stop cooking from the time it is put on the stove until it is done, although it should at no time boil furiously. Once the soup is started cooking, no water should be added, as this spoils the flavor. T}te soup bone should be put into cold water and no salt should be added till the soup is done, aa the salt stops the flow of the juices., The soup should cook from five to seven hours at least. All spices used in the soup should' be pub in whole—that is, whole black and white peppers, cloves, bay leaves, cloves of garlic, eto. E. W.
