Moisten with dressserve on a bed of shredded crisp cab- raer days. The combination a meat and vegetables in salads is good be- bage, cause it helps to effect a balanced Macaroni Egg Salad. diet. Fruits also may be combined with meats or fish with good results. The vegetable or fruit acts as a fill- er for the salad and supplies mirleral content and ballast in the diet. The following salad may be varied In several ways, as for instance, neat cpbes of veal and matchlike pieces of carrots substituted for the beans and tongue. This is another substantial salad. One cup 'cooked macaroni, 2 hard cooked eggs, 1/2 cup diced celery, 4 tablespoons sliced stuffed olives, salad dressing, shredded leaf lettuce. Chop eggs coarsely and combine with macaroni, celery and olives. Add salad dressing to make moist and serve on a bed of shredded leaf let- tuce. Garnish with halves, of stuffed olives. It's better to use the olives stuffed with pimentoes rather than those stuffed with celery or nuts be- cause the red of the pimento makes an attractive touch of color, Special Salad Four young carrots, 2 green onions, alla cup cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 cup shredded spinach, raw, 2 heads leaf lettuce, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 cup cooked aood- les. Put carrots and onions through food chopper, mix them into cottage cheese, add salt and sugar. Shred spinacb and lettuce (using all lettuce except some leaves for a bed. for the salad.) Combine greens, mayonnaise and cottage cheese just before serv- ing and pile onto the lettuce in a large dish or salad bowl. Garnish with a circle of vermicelli or noodles, previously cooked and chilled. Dot with mayonnaise, top with bit of grat- ed carrot. Summer Salad One and one-half cups cold cooked beans, 1 cup cold cooked ham, 1 cup cold booked tongue, Bermuda onion, green pepper. Cut ham and. tongue in pieces the same size as the beans. Mix and add 2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice and 4 cablespoons salad oil beat- en with aa teaspoon salt and aa tea- spoon pepper. Cover and let stand on ice for an hour or longer. When ready to serve drain from dressing. Wash pepper and cut in rings, re- moving seeds and white pith. Peel onion and cut in slices. Let stand in iced salt water for ten minutes. Drain and separate into rings. Pile alternating slices of onion and green pepper one above another on a leaf of lettuce. Fill this little pepper and onion cup with the salad mixture and mask with mayonnaise. Liver and Cabbage Salad Liver and. cabbage salad is unusual and delicious. You will need one cup diced cooked liver, 2 tablespoons minced cooked bacon, 1 cup diced cel- ery, 2 cups shredded crisp cabbage, French dressing, mayonnaise, curly endive. Marinate liver and bacon in French a dressing for one hour. A few drops of onion juice may be added to the dressing if wanted. Add celery and cabbage and mix lightly. .Serve on a bed of curly endive and top with may- onnaise. Ham Salad One and one-half cups diced. cold boiled ham, 11/2 cups diced cold boiled potatoes, 1 cup diced celery, 1 hard. cooked egg, mayonnaise, Lettuce. .Combine ham, potatoes, and celery, tossing lightly with a fork. Add may- onnaise to make moist a'id serve on crisp lettuce. Garnish witb slices of hard cooked egg and serve. Potato Salad a la -Russe Two cups diced potatoes, 1/2 tea- spoon grated onion, 1/2 cup 'diced pickled beets, 4 sardines, 4 hard cook- ed eggs, mayonnaise, lettuce. Use small new potatoes. Scrub and 11011 111 salted water until tender. Peel as soon as cool enough to handle. Cut into neat dice and chill. Remove skin and bones from sardines and separate into small flakes. Cut eggs in slices. Combine materials lightly with mayonnaise and serve on crisp lettuce. A brand new use for macaroni is in salad. Perhaps the most import- ant step is the making of successful macaroni salads lies in the cooking. Each piece must be firm and smooth, tender but not soft or sticky. The best way to cook macaroni is to drop it into plenty of boiling water — 3 (quarts of water and 1 tablespoon salt to 2 cups macaroni are good propor- tions—and boil until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well and rinse with cold water. Drain thoroughly and chill. Have all the other materials cold. Appointment? jelly glasses and cover with parafin, J. M.

And we are still. We keep hushed, as if we did not dare even whisper our rights. And take it not out of the hand of the king of Syria? Ahab had beaten Ben-hadad twice in battle (1 Kings 20), but had allowed the Syrian monarch to live, for which folly he was round rebuked by a prophet of Jehovah. And he said unto jelaosaphat, Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ranioth-gilead? This ques- tion, "Wilt thou go with me to bat- tle?" comes to every youth. The evil want to recruit him for their inglor- ious warfare and God's people seek his aid 1. the struggle for the right against the wrong. And Jehosaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses. That is, Jes- hashaPhat put himself unreservedly at the disposal of Ahab, with, all his army, footment, and calvary. And Je- hoshaphat said unto the king of Is- rael, Inquire first, I pray thee, for the word of Jehovah. Very likely Jezebel, the mastermind of Israel, had al - read obtained favorable omens from her sycophantic heathen priests; but Ahab would not mention that fact, and Jehoshaphat was too religious to take a step so momentous without directions from Jehovah. Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men. They were not true prophets of Jehovah and. disciples of the prophets, but prophets of the Je- hovah worshipped under the image of an ox, who practised prophesying as a trade without any call from God, Without overdoing it in business and even if they were not in the pay of matching accessories, Molyneux of the idolatrous kings of Israel, were uses red and wbite checked taffeta at any rate in their service.

Ahab could not afford to antagonize jehoshaphat, or put his project in a bad light by re. fusing to consult a man whom he ad- mitted to be a prophet of Jehovah, Now the king of Israel and jelloshaa phat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robea, Tthey were in splendid and im- pressive attire, for Ahab evidently in- tended to make this a notable occa- sion. In an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria. In such open places, or squares, public asseinblies were customarily brought together and courts were held, in the open air. And all the prophets were propheY Ing before them. "The scene exacted in the open market -place of Samaria glad its counterpart—its true spiritual reflex—in the great court of heaven." And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanala "Zedekiah" means "Justice of Jehov- ah," which indicates that his parents, at least, were followers of the true God. Made his horns of iron. He was acting a parable, as was common with the prophets. And said, Thus saith' Jehovah. Zedekiah knew that what jehoshaphat wanted was "the word of Jehovah." With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until they be consumed. That is, "until they perish," as Mof- fatt translates it; one form of des- truction being substituted for another. And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Raraoth-gilead,' and prosper. Not one of the four hun- dred prophets dared to strike an un- popular note and breathe a word in opposition to the proposed war, what. ever his private judgment may have been. For Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king. If the expedi- tion should prove fortunate, each man argued, he would gain the credit of being a true seer. If unfortunate, he would have three hundred and ninety.. nine comrades in his plight, and. the king could hardly punish all of them; or, he could attribute the failure of his prophecy to some untoward event; or, the king might even perish in battle and never return to bring birn to account. And the messenger that went to call Micaiali spake unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the pro -i phets declare good unto the king with one mouth. This indicates that Mica-. lab. had been in prison, where he would not have learned what was go -I ing on, and what would be common knowledge throughout the city of Sa- maria. Let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word •of one of them, and speak thou good. The messenger was plainly a friend of the prophet, desir- ing to save him from Ahab's wrath., And Micaish said, As Jehovah liv.' eth. The most solemn and impress- ive oath the prophet could use. What Jehovah saith unto me, that will I speak. A man of God will not allow himself to be swayed by worldly con- siderations, the favor of those in pow- er, the applause of the multitude, gain of goods or advancement in station, ease or safety or any other such. mat- ter. To his infinite Master he stands or falls. and stoutly determines to do his will and utter his message. This is the spirit most urgently needed in our day of turmoil and anxiety, varieties will last until August, giv- ing plenty of time for practice before, shall we say, an October wedding? The big cherries make a fine des- sert or first course just as they are and a jellied salad of the juice of tart cherries and granulated gelatin with stoned white cherries sprinkled through the mold is delicious and colorful. This salad may be made the day before wanted for serving and •is particularly good if chopped nuts are added to the mayonnaise. Raw Carrot Salad Two cups grated carrots, raw, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 2 table- spoons chopped green pepper, 1 head lettuce, or leaf lettuce. Combine vegetables, including the .lettuce which has been shredded. When ready to serve, add French dressing and mix thoroughly. Serve very cold. Good Combinations There are a number of good com- bination salads, and in case they do not occur to you we will mention them below. Cooked leftover vegetables — car- rots, peas, wax beans, beets, aspara- gus — are delicious it thoroughly chilled and marinated with mayon- naise. Slices of tomato and cucum- ber and hard-boiled eggs should top these vegetable salads which are plac- ed on beds of lettuce. Shredded raw cabbage combines well with chopped celery or apples. If celery is combin- ed with cabbage, use sliced tomatoes as a garnish; if apples, place a small mound of tart jelly—red currant or grape on salad. Some people like ba- nanas mixed with shredded cabbage' and marinated with a boiled salad dressing. Lima beans boiled and mix- ed with diced celery and sliced to- matoes make a substantial salad which children especially like. Other combinations include: Tuna fish with celery, hard cooked eggs, dressing and lettuce; salmon, green Peas and cucumbers with shredded lettuce; veal with diced carrots, chicken with celery and diced. pine- apple, crab meat with celery and hard-boiled eggs; lobster with peas and sliced tomatoes and sweetbreads with pineapale. To be quite perfect, the preferred green must be thor- oughly chilled and crisped and served without a trace of water clinging to its surface. A watery salad is not only uninviting but also much of the flavor is lost, so watch this point and always allow time to prepare the green properly. The wire salad bask- ets are most convenient, but if you tie the greens loosely in a big square of cheese -cloth and swing it vigorous- ly you will accomplish the same re- sult, Cherry Cobbler This is a plain, inexpensive pud- ding that is very easy to make. Four tablespoons butter, 2 cups sugar, 1 cup milk, 2 cups flour, 4 tea- spoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 cups pitted cherries, 1/2 cup hot water. Cream butter and rub in 1 cup sug- ar. Mix and sift flour, baking powder and salt and add alternately with milk to butter and sugar mixture. Mix un- til smooth and turn into a buttered pudding dish. Mix cherries with re- maining sugar and hot water and pour over dough. Bake 40 minutes in a moderate oven and serve warm. Black Cherry Pudding Two cups rich milk,. 5 tablespoons butter, 1 scant cup sugar, 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind, 14 teaspoon mat - meg, 1/4, teaspoon cloves, 4 eggs, 1 cup sifted toast crumbs, 1 quart black cherries, Heat milk and add butter. Beat yolks of eggs until thick and lemon colored, beating sugar, spices and lemon rind. Slowly add hot milk, stir- ring to thoroughly dissolve the sugar. Mix toast crumbs and pitted cherries and add to first mixture. Fold in whites of eggs beaten until stiff and dry. Turn into a buttered. baking dish. Bake in a moderately slow ove (350 degrees F.) until firm to the touch. It will take about 40 minutes. Serve with or without whipped cream. DANGER IN BAD WATER A good stockman is particular about the purity of the water supplied his stock and will go to no end of trouble, to see that the water pails and water troughs do not become contaminated by the addition of organic matter or the growth ,of low forms of plant life. On a farm where three horses died recently, the water trough had be- come very foul, through the addition of barn yard filth that had been blown in by winds. The trough was a good one, being of cement, and the water when it left the pump, coming from a deep well was pure. But the trouble followed neglect in keeping the water trough clean. Three horses died of cerebro spinal meningitis on this farm all in one week at seeding time, A serious loss. A good well and a good trough coupled with neglect, is no better than a poor well and a poor trough. Neglect to keep the trough clean caused the loss. See that the horses get a clean water supply al- ways. Watch for the green algae that grows in water during summer, it is dangerous.
