• New, Tasty Recipes for the
M ush rooms
Modern methods of intensive mil
ture have made mushrooms an all the
year joy, but autumn is the tine when
the magic morsels that give a glamour
to the simplest dish may be enjoyed
most inexpensively,
Mushroom Rolls
Wipe, peel, and chop % lb. mush
rooms, cook in butter, season highly
with pepper and salt. Scoop centres
, from four lineal rolls, crumble the
centres and thicken mushrooms with
crumbs. Make to a nice consistency
with thick cream or a white sauce.
Fill the rolls, put their tops on,
brush with melted butter, and bake 5
minutes. •
Mushroom Pudding

fat bacon, fresh mushrooms. Line
basin with thin suet crust, pack tight-
ly with mushrooms, prepared in the

and salt. place the fat bacon in neat
little rolls, wherever there is a cre-
vice ,and fill nearly to the top with
water then cover with crust.
Steam for three hours after covering
with grease -proof Paper in usual way.
Mushroom Fritters
Put in a saucepan some peeled
mushrooms with a sprig of thyme ,a
little garlic, a bay leaf, seasoning, a
tablespoon water, and a little lemon
juice. Simmer for five minutes and
drain thoroughly. Cut in fairly small
pieces. Have ready a batter and lard
for frying...
A deep frying pan is best, Mix the
mushrooms with a suitable quantity
of batter, and cirOp into the boiling fat
i tablespoonful at a time. Garnish
with parsley. •
Turnovers
Wipe and fry in butter 1 lb. fresh
mushrooms; thicken. liquid with flour,
dilute with cream and mushroom cat-
sup in equal parts. Roll out rough
puff pastry, cut into oblongs, moisten
edges, put a good layer of mushrooms
and cream sauce on one half, and fold
over. Brusli tops with beaten egg;
bake in hot oven fifteen minutes.
These are equally good hot or cold.
Champignone Ephemeres
Select % lb. fresh mushrooms -peel
and remove stalks. These may be
used for flavoring soups. Flour the
. mushrooms well and place in an earth-
enware casserole with 2 tablespoons
butter and two tablespoons cream: If
no cream at hand, milk will do. Set
to simmer slowly, and when the mush-
. rooms have let out their juice, dredge
la more flour at intervals, stirring to
prevent lumps; season well with black
'pepper and salt and continue to elm-
,
nier till you have a nice thick puree.
The mixture must be stirred to pre-
vent burning, and it is most important
that it should be fcooked as slowly as
possible. Pile the mushrooms on to
rounds of lightly toasted and buttered
bread, give a squeeze of lemon. juice
- and light sprinkle of cayenne to the
puree, our this over the mushrooms,
garnish each croute with half a finely
cut slice of lemon, placing it sa that
it stands with the rind uppermost.
Servevery hot. If preferred, a drop
or two of sherry might be added to the
puree instead of the lemon, in which
case garnish with fried parsley.
For Prune Lovers
During the past few years the prune
has expressed itself-Inno uncertain
terms. It has announced that it is ex-
ceptionally rich in vitamin A, and that
it contains vitamins B and G as well.
It has also advised thethousewives of
the dominion that it contains an abund-
ance of iron, and Of copper, which
latest research has proven essential to
the utilization of the iron by the body.
Prunes alsocontain calcium, phos-
phorus and other minerals. In plain
words, the humble prune is humble no
longer. It is inclined to be decidedly
"uppish."
And with its new power, the prune
feels itself a fit companion for many
of the other delicacies that go into
salads, cakes, pies and delicions
dainties of all kinds: Thus, dietitiaes.
'lave used the once humble prune as a
foundation for a number of extremely
delicious and healthful 'dessert dishes.
Here are two or three that will
prove to you that the Prune is a valu-
able addition to the goodies upon your
emergency shelf;
Baked Prune Whip
2 cups cooked prunes, 1 teaspoon
grated lemon peel, 2 teaspoons lemon
juice, 4 tablespoons powdered sugar,
4 egg whites, Pit prunes and beat to
a pulp. Add lemon peel and juice and
2 tablespooes sugar and blend well.
Beat whites of egg until stiff, add 2
tablespoons powdered sugar and con-
tinue beating until stiff. Whip prune
mixture by spoonfuls into egg whites.
Pile lightly in pudding dish and bake
in moderate oven (350 deg.F.) for 20
niinues.
Baked Prunes •
Cover 1 pound of prunes with cold
water and let stand for 4 hours. Drain
prunes and reserve the liquor; •add
cup sugar to the liquor and boil until
the sugar is dissolved, skimming if
necessary. Place the drained prunes
in a covered casserole, cover with hot
•liquor and bake in moderate oven (325
deg. F.) 40 minutes.
Festive Prune Cake
3 cups prunes, 2 cups sliced bananas,
2 teaspoons lemon juice, 1A, teaspoon
lemon extract. Boiled frosting made
from 4 egg whites, 1 3 -layer white cake.
Boil prunes in water to cover 25
minutes; pit 2 cups prunes and cut in-
to small pieces. Combine bananas, cut
prunes, lemon juice and extract, and
1 cup boiled frosting, blending thor-
oughly. Spread between cake layers,
then cover top and sides with remain-
ing frosting. Decorate top and sides
with remaining cup of prunes which
may be slit on one side, pitted, and.
laid flat wing fashion with fine strips
of banana placed between wings, giv-
ing a butterfly semblance.
Preserving !VI int
It is useful to have a supply of pre-
served mint on hand for making mint
sauce during the winter months. It is
simple to preserve and well worth the
little double involved. Chop finely
sufficient mint to fill a large breakfast
cup. Cover the mint with boiling
water and leave it to soak until cold.
Finally stir in a few tablespoons of
fresh vinegar. Store in airtight stone
jars until required. The mixture
should be of the consistency of thick
mint sauce. When required for use
about one tablespoon of the mint
should be enough for mint sauce for
six people.
Food That Protects Against Disease
There are good reasons why certain
foodstuffs are regarded as being pro-
tective agaiast disease. This is be-
cause they contain vitamins and min-
eral salts.
Many illnesses are due to deficien-
cies M diet; others would probably
not assail us if we protected ourselves
by eating foods rich in these necessary
vitamins.
The foods that matter are fresh
vegetables and' fruit, milk, butter,
cream, cheese, fish and animal liver
and eggs.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Wire Clothes Line
Give the wire clothesline a coat of
white varnish, once or twice a year to
prevent its rusting- If it is already a
bit rusted give it two coats of paint
the first time, letting the first coat dry
thoroughly before applying the second.
Mattresses
Never hang a mattress over a
clothesline to air, as this will break
the filling and result in an unsightly
and uncomfortable hollow in the
centre of the mattress. Air it flat in
the sunshine, turning so each side may
absorb the sun,
A cork dipped in salt and rubbed
over a dirty saucepan will remove sthe
stains.
When washing new flannels, add a
few drops of olive oil to the water.
This will help to keep them soft,
Stains on knife -handles should be
rubbed with finely -powdered pumice
stone and water.
When making fruit pies the juice
often boils over. This canbeavoided
if the sugar is put between two layers
of fruit.
Silver often gets dull in damp
Weather, To keep it bright, mix your
plate -powder with liquid ammonia in-
stead of with water.

Lesson
Lesson V111. -November 19, Paul In
Athens. -Acts 17:, 22-34, Golden
Text -In him we ,Ive, and move,
and have our being. -Acts 17:28.
THE LESSON IN ITS 'SETTING,
TIME-A.D. '51,
PLACE -Athens. The Areepagus,
I. THE CITY OV IDOLS, vs. 16-22,
-"And Paul stood in the midst of
the Areopagus." In the centre of the
Council of the Areopagus, the digni-
fied body, seated probably in a semi-
circle. "And said, Ye men of Athens.
In all things I perceive that ye are
very religious." 'In all things' means
'in all ways and places,' `throu•gliout
your entire community life,'
II, THE UNKNOWN GOD, vs. 23-
28. -".For as I passed along, and ob-
served the objects of your woeship."
The temples' , altar% and images eon-
secrated todifferent .divinities. I
found also an altar with this inscrip-
tion, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD." The
superstitious Athenians were so
.afraid of offending some deity by
omitting him from their pantheon,
that they had erected this altar.
"What therefore ye worship in ignor-
ance, this I set forth unto you." His
object was to bring"before them that
God whom they were thus groping
after.
"The God that made the world and
all things therein." The Greek gods,
for the most part, were not thought
of as creators but as supervisors.
Paul here enunciated a doctrineen-
tirely new to the Greeks and to all
polytheists. "He, being Lord of
heaven and earth." There are no
other gods to oppose him or thwart
hi will. "Dwelleth not in temples
made with lands. Being the Maker
of the universe, he cannot be limited
to one spot in it.
"Neither is he served by men's
hands, as though he needed any-
thing." God is not to be waited upon,
as a man is waited upon by his ser-
vant, who ministers to his wants, .is
if he needed anybody's help or service.
"Seeing he himself giveth to all life,
and breath, and all things." This
thought of God as the great Giver
does not exclude the thought of him
as gladly receiving the gifts of his
children; but they are gifts of praise
and love, not of sheep and cattle. As
Christ said, whoever gave to the
needy, and ministered to the suffer-
ing, gave to him.
"And he made of ene every nation.
of nien to dwell on all the faces of
tles earth." Of one eesenee, all born
of lihnself, all tracing their race back
to • the single divine Fatherhood.
"Having Idetermined their appointed
seasons, and the bounds' of their ha-
bitation." God has fixed f or all he
same seasons of the year and the same
limits of heat and cold, desert and
mountain, beyond which men cannot
dwell. "That they should seek God."
God wants the affection of the beings
he has created; it may truly be said
that God needs it: "If haply they
might feel- after him and find him."
Not without searching can we find
out God. "Though he is not far from
each of us." God is near to us, but
w. know it net.
"For in him we live, and move, arm
have our being." The universe is all
one world of God, at the same time
natural and supernatural. "As cer-
tain even of your own poets have
said, For we are also his offspring."
By this quotation Paul showed hie.
cultural audience that he also was a
man of culture, and thus he won their
respect.
III. THE KNOWN GOD, vs. 29-
34. -"Being then the offspring of
God." Possessing the high dignity of
being the sons of this Maker of
heaven and earth. "We ought not to
think that the Godhead is like unto
gold, or silver, or stone, graven by
art and device of man." This is the
all -convincing argument against idol-
atry. It required much courage to
make this statement, surrounded as
Paul was by the most remarkable
tokens of idolatry the world had ever
seen or ever would see and by a
people passionately devoted to their
heathen deities.
"T.he times of ignorance therefore
God overlooked." 14 -to this time,
Paul dared to say, you have been in
the slough of besotted, ignorance, and
for that reason God will pardon your
awful folly of idolatry; but I bring
you the right of reason, and hence-
forth your ignorance has no excuse in
the eyes of • God. "But now he com-
inandeth men that they should all
everywhere repent." The apostle
softens the rebuke by applying it to
all nien, and not merely to the Athen-
ians.
"Inesmuch as he hath appointed a
day in which he will judge the world
in righteousness." Sin is not to be
allowed to continue forever. It will in
time come short up against judgment
and punishment. "By the man whom
he hath ordained." Paul could not
continue long in his adclresS without
bringing in Christ, for Christ was

up -
the sum of his teaching; still less
weld he speak of sin and penalty
without introducing the Saviour who
had come MO the world to save man
Irene sin and penalty, "Whereof he
hath given assurance unto all men
in that he hath raised him from the
dead." It was the vision of the risen
Christ that converted Paul on the
Damascus road, and he confidently
tented in it to convert others.
"New when they lifted of the resur-
rection of the dead, some mocked,"
When Paul came to speak to them of
the resurrection of the dead, and of
judgment to come, basing 'it on the
evidence of Christ's own resurrection,
as an assurance to all mankind of
the certainty of the revelation, then
they had reached a point at which
the strangeness of the doctrine star-
tled them. "But others said, We will
hear thee coneerning this yet again."
They were like Felix, putting off e
consideratian ,of their eternal and
vital interests to 'a convenient sea-
son." •
"Thus Paul went out from among
them." The comparative failure of
St. Paul's mission at Athens seems
to have had considerable effect upon
his style of preaching in the future.
Ile had tried 'the wisdom of the
world' and had found it -wanting.
"But certain men clave unto hitn,
and believed." He was probably
never without at least one convert,
wherever he went.
Parent and Child
Should Have Their
Mutual Interests
New York. -Sharing interests be-
tween parents and children was em-
phasized .recently by Mrs, Theodore
Roosevelt, widow of the former Cal -
ter States President,
She spoke to 600 school children,
representatives from Roosevelt Clubs
throughout Greater New York, at a
program in commemoration of her
husband's 76th birth anniversary.
"Children mean' as much to parents
as parents do to children," she said.
"I remember that any time during
those seven happy years In the
White House that things were trying.
I would always say, 'Send me one of
my children to read to me.'
"It is not enough that children just
be good children, but also that in-
terests between parent and child be
shared."
Arthur Guiterman, poet and friend
of Roosevelt, said that two things
characteristic of Roosevelt which he
suggested to children were to work
and play harder,
"Looks like a owe of an irresist%
ble force and an *Immovable body."
"What's up?"
"Our star salesman seems to have
run up against a man who won't
buy anything."
Game of Bridge of
Turkish Origin
The Paris newspapeil "Figaro,"
which has been discussing the origin
of the game of bridge, has received
the following interesting letter from
Mr. Georges Zarif, a Turkish reader:
"We have played bridge in my fam-
ily since 1869. We even have a bridge
tradition. It was an uncle of mine,
Antoine Nicopou/o, who, after staying
in England and Russia, is believed to
have Combined whist and vint into a
new game which was soon popular
among all my compatriots.
"It is probable that in 1883 foreign
diplomats started to play the game.
But until 1890 their number was ex-
ceedingly small, and bridge was
watched with great astonishment by
all those from the West who came to
visit the cities of the East.
"The rules of 1869 remained in
force until 1910. But since then Ain -
erica has int -reduced such modifica-
tions that today bridge scarcely at all
resembles the game played by our
grandfathers."
There are no fur-bearieg animals
of any kind on the land within the
Antarctic circle.

:Radio Circus Parades.
For the first time since the inauguration Of radio broadcasting the com-
ing of a new program series to the air was heralded by a parade.
Nor was this any ordinary jolting along of this • and that, but an
Ga
honest -to -goodness, authentic circus parade, right up :Broadway, New York,
from Union 'Square' to 86th Street -the first circus parade that Manhattan
has seen since 1925when Ringling Brothers and Barnum aad Bailey staged
therdlean.st
performance of "the greatest show on earth" in old Madison Square
How could this outpouring of elephants and equestrians, clovras and
cowboys, even to the calliope be an authentic circus parade when it heralded
a radio program, . ,? Because it was significant of a radio circus, the great-
est big -top show ever staged in a radio studio, a series dramatized from
Courtney Ryley Cooper's famous "Circus Days" stories and adaeted for
the air by the author himself.
This new series spots out famous characters of three-ring days . , .

circus bosses of fiction . . , -other leading players being Wally Maher,

Kids Furnish Baker With Gags.
Comedians of the big networks pay as high as $1000 weekly for the
tunny remarks and jokes that set us to laughing during their programs.
There are exceptions and one is . Phil Baker, the Armour Jester whojust
recently revealed that he manages to get a great many good lines as a
result of repartee with street urchins.
When his work in the studios is over, Phil can be found in conversa-
tion with newsboys, shoe shine boys and other youngsters who frequent
Chicago's streets. The boys have learned to wait for Baker and they know
that an apt phrase will bring a bright coin from the air's master comedian.
A smart reply to Phil's "Hello Buddy," brings a gleaming quarter and
often a bill changes hands if Baker finds a usable remark for the air.
His liking for kids leads him into strange channels. A group playing
football on a corner lot or a crowd around a marble ring will invariably
find Phil taking at least one kick or shot before he leaves,

Machine Oil Stains •
After a sewing machine has beer
freshly oiled it is not always possible
to avoid a little of the oil staining the
articles which are first used on the
machine. After oiling the machine
should always be used on an old piece
of material in order to "work off" ana
surplus oil, but if it happens that new
material gets spottedthe best way tc
remove it is to use cotton wool. Press
a piece of the wool tightly over the oil
stain and leave it on for about fifteen
minutes. After this time the oil stair
will have been absorbed by the cottoi
wool, leaving the material deep.
