MACARONI AND SPAGHETTI
DISHES
All macaroni and spaghetti must be
boiled before it is made into dishes of
any sort. This holds for allthe so-
called ?naceroni pastes or noodles.
Slightly salted water furiously boil -
lug must be/ ready to drop the paste
in, and fifteen minutes rapid boiling
is usually enough to make the paste
tender, Cold water is run through
the cooked pastes before they are .us-
ed in the various dishes.
Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Boil a package of macaroni as dir-
ected and when done drain and rinse
in cold water. Butter a deep baking
dish and put in alternate layers of
macaroni and grated American cheese
dusting with pepper, salt and a few
grains of sugar. When all is used,
pour over a cupful of heavy cream
and bake in the oven a good brown.
If liked instead of cream, a cream
sauce made not too thick may be used,
or a good, well seasoned tomato sauce
can be used.
Italian Spaghetti
Boli and blanch a package of spagh-
etti, add to ita small cupful of fine
crumbs, Which have been fried in but-
ter and well drained. Add pepper,
salt, a teaspoonful of sugar, a half
gill of melted butter, a saltspoonfui
of saffron, and .a cupful of saffron,
and a cupful and a half of tomato
sauce seasoned with plenty of onion
juice. Wipe the inside of the serving
dish with a out bud of garlic and then
turn in the. hot spaghetti. Cooked
chicken livers may be chopped fine
and added, if liked.

TRH WOR1.iD,
Mel a Dominant Personality, Lofty

a Passion for Gonstrnction and
ellepaizsion--A Good Citizen.
When William Hesketh Lever de-
cided, in 1894, to turn his soap -
manufacturing bustnees into a'lianit-
ed liability coiupany, he resolved
that the transactions should put ne:
Undue risk upon the shoulders of the
public, and he accordingly consulted
a London company promoter. •
"Well," said ,that adviser, "what
does It matter what happens once.
you have the money?",
Without a word, !,ever gathered
up his papers and departed.
This was typical of the man who
was later to, become the world's
greatest soap -king. He had a domi-
nant personality, lofty aims and am-
bitions, genius, a -.passion for con-
struction and expansion, good citizen -
Ship, level-headedness, and a knack
for gettinghold of the right thing
and developing it. Who would not
get on and rise to great heights with
all these assets? The result is the
gigantic and flourishing business,
with its tens of thousands of happy,
well-paid workers, that the soap -king.
left behind him.
These sidelights on a great work-
er's character can be read in the me-
Moir the present Lord Leverhulme
has just published, "Viscount Lever-
hulrae—by his Son."
Coming, from humble parents—his
father was a grocer in a small way
—young Laver found his education
hat a small and unassuming school,
d a good, and at the same time
rigorous, upbringing, left school at
sixteen and entered his father's busi-
ness. James Lever gave his son a
thorough and •disciplined grounding
in every operation connected with his
trade. At seven in the morning he
was taking down shutters, tidying up
the premises, and getting things'.
ready for his father's arrival . a little
later. This early discipline remained
with William Lever all his life, and
it is doubtful if the father,strict
though.he was, was a more rigorous
trimester to the son than the son was
to himself in later life.
The first task young Lever had to
learn was the cutting and wrapping
Of soap. Cartons, of which he was
later tobecome the originator, were
tibea unknown, and the wholesaler
bought his soap in "endless" bars.
Lever cut them. Thence he passed
to the breaking of lump sugar, and
so on, right through the mill.
Soon, with a good working knowl-
edge of the counter, he passed to the
office. Ali the time he was reading
vigorously in the evenings, and he
never had a slack moment from one
day's end to the other. He studied
shorthand and nature, swam, carpen-
tered, and generally Sung himself 'in-
to life with a seat and will not usual
in the- average boy. He, succeeded.
with,a vengeance.
By 1884, his thirty-third year,
with that tireless restlessness that
characterized him; throughout life,
looked around for a new outlet for
his business acumen. It was then
that he thought of making soap. Sun-
light Soap saw the light of day that
very year.
At first it was made by several
firms, but when these firms,- finding
the Lever order soaring, put their
prices up. Lever decided to manu-
facture for himself with his father's
financial help.
Five months were given to careful
experiments, and at the end of that
time Sunlight Soap, practically as
good as the kind we buy to -day, was
put on the market. Its success was
Immediate.
Lever left the grocery business to
devote, himself to soap. In 1885 the
output of his Warrington factory was
20 tons weekly. A year later it had
reached 250 tons a week, and by the
end of the following year, 450 tons.
Then Lever moved to the Cheshire
side of the Mersey and founded Port

Whilst it was being built, he hus-
tled across to America to study their
selling and advertising methods, and
arrange for agencies. Then he went
