A Hint- For a Savory Supper. On cold winter evenings, after a day spent *in the frosty out 'of doors, a supper party is always welcome. Here is the recipe for. a delicious meal that g can be cooked either on a stove or in a chafing dish, and that will satisfy appetites made keen by the icy air: Flake one and.one half cupfuls of d salt codfish and soak it one hour. oBoil one cupful of. rice. Chop. to- t gether two tablespoonfuls of green d pepper—or more -if the pepper is mild —and one small onion. Melt two e tablespoonfuls of butter in a chafing e disl�i or frying pan and add the chop- ped onion and pepper, the rice, the , codfish and one half can of tomatoes. Y Let the mixture simmer, but' stir it el frequently, from - fifteen minutes to half an hour. If you use a chafing dish, do away with the water pan; otherwise the fish will not be done. 1 - litinard'a Liniment Relieves Neuralgia. er which has become soiled by -- -- -•---R-- T" At his, impatient summons the door ing light in them. 1 face and hands, without washing the opened, and a dainty little lady peep- "eery well, John," came • her tie- whole . cover?
