MARIE EST MALADE. For a long time we have been ac- ataanad to having toast and oz•aage. marmalade served to those recover- ing from ' -a fit of illness. Somehow or other the marmalade seems to touch that proverbial apot so that even if ft. -were not a healthful bal- ancing tasty, it would still be a favorite with convalescents. Probably few of us realize where the word "marmalade" originated. According to the Pathfinder Maga- sine "Mary, Queen of Scots, brought over from France the preserves she loved so well. Mary loved it to such an - extent that every time she was ill she would call for it until it• be- came known as 'Marie est malade' by her French court, and through the years it has degenerated into 'mar- malade." ." ECONOMY MEAT DISHES High-priced cuts of meat are de- licious, but those of us who have to watch the pennies -these days may, with a little care, prepare wonder- ful meat dishes from the cheaper cuts. A dash of sugar in meat dish- es, brings out the flavor and fur- nishes the body with some quick - energy fuel—just what we need on cold days. Connecticut Stew 11/4 pounds fresh, lean pork 3 pounds fresh, lean pork 3 cups diced parsnip 1 tablespoon finely chopped par- sley 1 cup sliced onion 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon sugar - , Salt and pepper Cut the pork into small pieces.' • Brown in a frying pan. Add the water and simmer until the meat le nearly tender. Add the vegetables and seasonings; cook for fteen or twenty minutes. Mix the flour with a small quantity of cold water, Add Ito the meat and vegetables. Cook until thickened. Sprinkle parsley on FOR SHARPENED WINTER • ` APPETITES. With cold weather at hand to sharpen appetites; this; is the season of the year when all the family will give a -rousing welcome to the ap- pearance of the Muffins, waffles and griddle cakes on the breakfast menu. Below is a convenient "three -in - one (for bran, muffins, waffles and griddle cakes) recipe that will be as welcome to the busy housewife as the results of her efforts will be to father and the children. Since the reciipe calls for bran, there will be the satisfaction of knowing that it will provide a real contribution to the health of the family, for the bran provides the "bulk" every normal person needs to keep his system in good working order. Three -In -One Recipe 1% cups all -bran 12-3 cups sour milk 14 cup sugar 3 eggs (beaten well) 2 cups flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon soda 1 teaspoon. salt Put all -bran to soak in the sour milk; Cream the shortening and sugar. Add eggs, sour milk and all- bran and mix thoroughly. Sift flour with baking powder, soda and salt and add to first mixture—stirring only .until flour. disappears. Bake in greased muffin tins in a moderate oven (425 degrees F.) for 20 to 25 minutes or in a hot waffle iron. Some of the mixture may be thinned with water or milk and used for griddle cakes.

Suppose she has chosen canned apricots. Here's her solution: Apricot Cream - 1/4 `cup apricot juice 11/4 cups, aprioct pulp .3 tablespoons lemon juice 11-3 cups •(1 can) sweetened" -'----- -condensed milk Lady fingers, - if 'desired' Force apriocots through - a coa' 3e strainer. •Add - lemon juice to sweet- end condensed milk. Stir until mix- ture thickens. Add aprioct juice and pulp, mixing thoroughly. Pour into sherbet glasses and place in refrig- erator to chill. Sherbet glasses may be .lined with Iady fingers if desired. Serves six. Dried apricots may be as - ed in this dessert. They should be soaked and cooked in the usual way, but no sugar should be used. Here's the' apple sauce dessert: Apple Sauce Whip 1 can apple sauce (2 cups) Juice of 3 lemon % cup sweetened condensed milk Nutmeg (optional) Add the juice of half a lemon to the apple sauce. Add mixture to sweetened condensed milk and blend, thoroughly. Nutmeg inay be added if desired. Chill thoroughly before serving. Serves six. KITCHEN KINKS Taken in a glassful of water be- fore breakfast, the juice of a lemon will help to purify the blood and cleanse the system. A sponge can be cleaned by wash.: ing it in warm water to which lemon juice bas been added. New cake and meat tins will not. rust or burn if, before they are us- ed, they are rubbed over with lard and then left in a rather warns oven for some time. See that corners and crevices are well coated with the lard. Afterwards wipe off the grease - and wash in the ordinary way.

Diet Fad Creates Potato Surplus Says the Toronto Mail and Em- pire: "Statistics m-pire:"Statistics show that there has been.a decline per capita in the con- sumption of potatoes in this country.. This has helped to lower the market price, as it has in part caused Can- ada to have a large surplus of tubers —about 7,000,000 bushels to be exact., One farmer stated recently that he had sold two truck loads of Grade 1 potatoes at his farm for 16 cents per bag to Toronto dealers, The matter has been referred to the National Re-. search Council under whose auspi- cesa•a pitferenoe __of agricu turai ex- perts, chemists and marketing auth=. orities was convened. A.-- eemmittee- will -be named to canvass the situa- tion and suggest means of remedying the condition obtaining to which un- doubtedly the unemployment situa- tion, as well as dieting on the part. of thousands of people, has contributed. As a large list of foodstuffs, including confectioners' glucose, grape sugar, syrup and starch can be made from the wholesome tuber, Canadians may confidently expect from the commit- tee which will operate under the ae- gis of the Research Councl, some practicable suggestions by which the excess potato supply may be used up."

Rusticus in the Stratford Beacon- herald, ---lap animals think? We are re- minded of this question by the action of a sow pig that has found a way of getting out •of the yard In wihich she is supposed to stay. There is a small. gate in this yard, and in all probab- ility it was at some time left open so marked. that the sow could' get out, Well, she was soon put back and the gate clos- ed, but, having tasted freedom slie was bound to go exploring again. She walks up to that gate. It is shut and Cargo of Mules F• 746 Potential Kicks Are Shipped. to India From U.S.A.

Once more the whble farm is hers to wander oven' as she pleases. In the yard there is a giant oak tree and this year there was a good crop of acorns. These shave long since fallen to the ground, In her ,wander- ing about the placethe sow found thea oak tree with the acorns under' it. She liked these nuts very well and for a day or two was quite content. to feed on acorns; and asleep under the shed, but the acorns on even' a large tree won't satisfy the Hunger of a fairly large sow for - many days. She must have a new and generous supply of feed. The strong snout had been useful in opening- the gate So perhaps the same trick would work on another. In" the shed there was a Ikely look- ing. door. We thought it was securely fastened, but a few good yanks from that Vg's snout made the hooks give way. And on the inside she found a Reck of rolled oats very much to her liking: Of course, a stronger hook was put on that door but there were other doors that must be tried. There is nota door about the barn that that sow has not tried to dislodge with 1 era powerful snout. ;.

Worn In The Hair Windsor,'N.S;—A 'seam of coal, located at Fall Brook, near here, which burns with a blue flame and leaves only a small white- ash, . has been the source of Thomas Swin- mer's winter heat during the past. few years and he has expressed the opinion that the vein might be worth' working and would provide jobs fori many of the unemployed men In' this vicinity.

Swinamer showed the seam to l William Deuchard, a Scotsman who' was a student of geology at a school i in Perthshire, and he said it was his opinion that the - coal basin' could be profitably mined: From the rack and the way in which is burn-' ed, Deuchard judged it was semi -1 anthracite or possibly anthracite of the middle or lower carboniferous formation. Poultry Grades Most of the poultry being offered on the market this year is being: graded in accordance with govern- ment standards, with the class and grade marked by tags affixed to the breast of the bird. There are two- classes of poultry, "Milk -fed," distinguished white fat, and "select- ed," distinguished by yellow fat. Within these classes are the grades "Milk -fed A," Milk -fed B," and "Selected 0." Grading of the birds in this manner enables the house- holder to choose good dressed poultry with great ease.
