Exeter Advocate, 1901-8-8, Page 3USES -Fall THE CUCUMBER. 01VIE OF THE IVIANY ODD WAYS OF SERVING IT. N o I'oe to DyspeptiesWhen Rightly Used and Lots of Ways of Using It. The cucumber is the hardest work - Ed member of the vegetable kingdom. At least it is if WO may judge ,by the • variety of its uses. From America to Asia Minor it appears as an art- lcle of feod on dinner tables and sup- per tables, all over the civilized world. Dut that does not exhaust its Lossibilities by any means, In Egypt it is made to yield a pleasant •cooling drink by ingenious treatment. A hole is cut in the cucumber, the pulp is broken and stirred with a stick, and the hole closed with wax. The cucumber, still fastened to its stein, is lowered into a pit. After a few days the juice ferments, ,and the Egyptian drawing it off has a liquor exactly suited to his taste. 1 When my lady wishes to allay sun- burn or to soften and whiten her • skin, on general principles she calls for cucumber soap dr cucumber cream. ,The very name makes her think the preparation must be harm- less as well as efficaciout and the Beau Brumniels of to -day use cu- cumber pomade with the same sense of security. Then tickles—what is more univer- sally popular than the pickle, and 'what new-fangled invention can bear comparison with the old-fashioned time-honored CUCUMBER PICKLE! From the days of 'kilts and pina- fores when boys and girth ate a huge penny pickle with surreptitious bites, to the days of formal dinners, when baby cucumbers appear as gherkins, what relish sharpens hunger like a nickle? Yet the cucumber in its natural state is at once the temptation and the menace of the eating world. •Plump, green, and inviting, as it is, doctors who have delicate digestions in charge taboo it. The average man eats it cheerfully, but with a sneaking fear of consequences. Men- tal science should turn its attention to cucumbers for a while. If it should convince the universal mind ,that cucumbers were in reality di- gestible and could issue a guarantee ,with every cucumber sold, .the di- gestive woe of humanity Would be wonderfully lightened. In the meantime, household scien- tists have a.clvanced to the rescue. Nothing is beyond them. They have reduced the most illogical of foods to their principles. They have dis- covered the innermost seerets of the squash and thc i otato and all their kith and kin, With persistent dili- gence they have tabulated •foods ac- cording to their nutritive value and 'by following these tables the poorest 'woman in the slums can learn how Ito keep home happy and her hus- band well fed on ten cents a day. Now cucumbers do not stand high In their list. They are among the ornaments. They represent the ac- cessories, • the poetry of diet as it were. • I3ut, however these' modern scientists have lessened the ancient prestige of the cucumber they shoW ,Ikow it can be made digestible at least. Buy a medium-sized cucumber to serve raw is the first of these rules for the hygienic housekeeper. It should be a• good green, and IPTI-IM TO THE TOU-CI-I. , Remove thinly skins from both ends and cut off a thick paring. This is important because the cucumber con- tains a bitter princir le and much of it lies near the skin and the stem end. Not a trace of green" shbuld be seen when the paring is finished. The cucumber should then be cut into slices, wafer thin, and put into salt and water. Let not the unwary cook be led to think that this will make them brittle and crisp, however. They will be as flabby as celery a Wee,k old—but digestible, Since most i_eople prefer their cu - ‚numbers crisp • or not at all, this Imethod finds little favor except among invalids and inca,pa,bles. But • cold water without the salt answers almost the same purpose and the cu- cumbers come out after their soak- ing as fresh and tender as if they had just been pickedfrom the vines. Drained and covered with crushed • ice and served they make a dish fit for a king. Kings, indeed, have ap- preciated the value of the cucumber from time immemorial. • A way of preparing boiled cucum- bers which can be made to tempt the apPetite of the • chronic dyspeptic with imrunity, is to pare them as before and cut them into small irre- gular pieces, put them in a baking pan, cover With boiling water and cook gently for twenty minutes. They :can be taken out with a strainer, ar- ranged on slices of toast and served with a cream sauce. Cucumber soup with its delicate 'flavor is an excellent introduction for a hearty, meal. Cucunabers stir- red with onions " are a variation prized by those who like onions. , A particularly artistic Way of prepaie- ing cucumbers for a luncheon or for a cool supper on a hot night is to Dare them as usual. Then, instead of slicing them, pare them round and round tc., the soft inside, which, must not be tued. The cucumber ribbons, heaped into a dish and served with French 'dressing are as pretty to look at as they, are good to eat. RECIPES FOR CUCUMBERS in salad are as numerous as black- berries in August. There is cucum- ber salad plain, cucumber salad with liny young onions Sliced with it, en - :umbers with lettuce, cucumbers with • lettuce and tomatoes, cucumbers vith jus, toma,toeS, and cucumbers In 'so family other salad combinations t1,.s.t they are .harder to compute than' an example in permutations and combinations. French deeSsing or MaYolmai8e dressing is equally good, according to the taste of the indi- vichuth• Cucumbers cut into cfibes 'half an inch square, with sliced to- matoes or lettuce leaves coVered With mayonnaise- dressing are extremely good to eat and make a color com- bination which any well -regulated painter could not help admiring: ,CucturlaerZ, like apples, bananas , and egg- 1t, are sometufnes fried;. for this they should bp cut tength- wise into slices, one-third, of an inch thick, dried between towels and sprinkled with salt and pepper. 'filen they should be dipped into crumbs, into egg, into crumbs again, fried in deep fat and drained. Stuffed cuctunbers are quite the 'most elaborate dish that can be inade of this vegetable. The cucum- bers are cut in half Crosswise and the seeds removed. The halves are then soaked in cold water for half an, hour and filled with forcemeat. Next they are placed upright on a trivet in a saucepan, half surrouaded with white stock and cooked for for- ty minutes. They are served on toast with Becharnel sauce. The cucumber on occasion can be useful as well as ornamental. The farmer finds it profitable to raise. It needs heat, light and rich soil, but under these conditions responds promptly with plenty of fruit. But it, is the manufacturer of pickles who really coins money out of the cu- cumber. Millions of cucumbers are bottled and sold every year, and while the big pickles, the medium- sized. 'Pickles and the little pickles slide down the epicure's 'throat, the pennies slip into the manufacturer's pocket, and he is quite ready to adopt Izaak Walton's estinaato of the strawberry and say of the cucumber, "God might have made a better veg- etable, but he didn't." 0 Pale and Dejected THE TRYING CONDITION OF 1VIANY WO1VIEN. Subject to Headaches, Dizziness and Heart Palpitation. They Grow Discouraged. and Pre- maturely Old. From the Review, Windsor, Ont. "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills ,s the only medicine that ever gave me any real benefit," said Mrs.. R. K. Har- ris, a well known resident of Wind- sor, to a representative of the Re- view recently. "I do not know ex- actly what my trouble was ; doc- tors seemed unable to tell me, though I thought myself it was con- sumption. I had a constant rack- ing cough, and a constant feeling of languidness. My blood seemed to have turned to water, and I was very pale. 1 had a feeling in my chest as though some foreign sub- stance was lodged there. The slight- est noise made me nervous ; I was dejected all the time and could not scarcely do any household work. I tried medicines, but they did not help me in the least. Doctors did not seem able to help me or tell me what ailed me although their bills increased with alarming rapidity. I grew so weak, and so despondent that 'finally 1 decided to take a trip to Colorado to see if a change of climate would benefit me. While contemplating this trip I read in a paper one day the testimonial of a person whose symptoms were 'almost identical with my own, who was cured by Dr. Williams' Pinkn.Pills. I decided to give them a trfal and purchased a box. When that box was done I got another, and found gradually that the pills were helping nie. The trip to Colorado was abandoned, and I continued using the pills until I had taken eight or nine boxes when I felt like an altogether different person. From a pale, thin, listless person, I became the picture of health, and felt it too. It is sev- eral years since I used the pills, and I have not had any return of the trouble. I am positive Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills saved me from an early grave, and I cannot recommend them too highly to those who are afflicted as I was." It is the mission of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to make rich, red blood, nourish the nerves, tissues and vari- ous organs of the body, and thus by reaching the root of the trouble, drive disease from the system. Other •medicines act only on the symptoms of the disease, and when such medi- cines are discontinued, the trouble returns—often in an aggravated form. If you want health and strength, be sure the full name, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo- ple," is on the wrapper around each box. If your dealer cannot supply you the pills will be sent postpaid at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for 82.50, by addressing the. 1.1r. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Oat, A SYMPATHETIC JUDGE. A certain judge who once presided over a criminal court was- famous as one of the most compassionate men who ever sat upon the bench. I-Iis softness of heart, however, did not prevent him from doing his duty as a judge. ' A man who had been convicted of stealing a small amount was broughti,into court for sentence. He looked very sad and hopeless, and the court was much moved by his contrite' appearance. I-Iave you ever been sentenced to iniprisoninent? the judge asked. Never, never! exclaimed the prison- er. bursting into tears. Don't cry, don't cry said the judge consolingly; you're going to be now! TAKEN AT I-I1S WORD. The celebrated French poet Saint Foix, who, in spite of his large in- come, Was always in debt, sat one day in a barber's shop waiting to' be shaved. He was lathered when the door oPened and a tradebunan entered who happened to be one of the poet's largest creditors. , No sooner did this man see Saint Foix than he angrily demanded his Money. The poet composedly begged him not to make a scene. Won't you wait for the money un- til 1 am shaved? Cexstainly, said the other, pleased at the prospect. Saint Foix then Made the barber a witness of the agreement, and imme- diately took Et towel, wiped the lath- er from his face, and left the 0.1913. ITo wore a beard to the 414 of lite Ys.. SONE UNPUNISHED THINGS WHICH YOU CANNOT BE INDICTED FOR STEALING. When Killing is Not Murder, and Theft Not Larceny—Queer Cases. "Houses are lovely things to steal, I give you my word!" 'Pim gentle- man who made this remark was in a London dock, charged with stealing two houses says London Answers. Seeing that no one was in charge of the buildings, he had deliberately erected a hoarding around them, and razed both to the ground, making a very good thing of the sale of the bricks, timbbr, and so on. The own- er was warned just in time to catch the offender; but •when he was tried it was found that Parliament, never having imagined so audacious a crime, had made no mention of it in the Statutes, and therefore that THE THIEF • COULD not be indicted on such a charge. The indictment had to be altered, and the man prosecuted for stealing the lead roofing before the judge could award O well -merited sentence. There are a good many other things beside houses which, by Brit- ish law you cannot be indicted for appropriating; apples, for instance. Stealing apples, even from a private garden, is not larceny. indeed, only a few years ago a man who' entered a vinery at Norwich, and walked off with a quantity of hothouse grapes, would have escaped altogether had he not happened to take the grape - scissors, with him. He had to be prosecuted simply for stealing the latter. The law on this subject has since been amended. Mushrooms, al- though', a valuable crop, are also ut- terly unprotected by law. If a man breaks into your field, tramples your crops, and goes off with five dollars' worth of mushrooms, you must pro- secute for trespass and wilful dam-. age, OR NOT AT ALL. A girl died recently in a London hospital from injuries received in a railway accident thirteen months be- fore. Her relations wished to bring an action for damages against the company. They found, to their amazement and disgust, that the law on the, subject says: "If a person in- jures another, and death does not take place until a year and a day af- terwards, no charge of murder or manslaughter can result." If you find an innkeeper unwise enough to give you credit for beer and spirits consumed on his premis- es, you may run your debt as far as you please, safe in the knowledge that, though you owe five hundred dollars, your creditor cannot recover more than $5. This is the result Of the Tippling, Act, which debars an innkeeper, from recovering more than $5 on a slate debt. Look out, however, that you are not caught, as was a man -re- cently at a Thames -bank hotel. He owed nearly $250 for whiskey and sodas. "You can't reCover for the whiskey," said the judge to the inn- keeper; "but I will give you judg- ment for $75 for the mineral waters." Another tip worth remembering by the person fond of whiskey and sodas is that he can only be arrested for tipsiness in the streets or any public place. A man, recently picked up by the police, dead -drunk, on a railway - line, and charged, left the court scot- free, because the permanent way is not a public place within the MEANING OF THE ACT. The motor has created a new crime, for which no specific punishment ap- pears to exist. A festive youth was arrested lately in a South Coast watering -place for having deliberate- ly started a machine which he found standing unattended by the side of the street. The vehicle flew down the street, creating a perfect, panic; but the culprit was released because there wa.s no law to fit the case. Even British game laws, seVere as are their provisions, can be evaded by the clever poacher. There are plenty of places where a man with a gun,- safe in a boat on tidal water, may enjoy an afternoon's sport at the expense of the owners of the coverts on the banks, So long as the birds fall into the water, he can- not be arrested. If you happen to live next to a bee - farm, whose owner has planted acres of flowers for the benefit of his hon- ey makers, you have a splendid op- portunity of sharing his gains, in a Manner which still' leaves you on the right- side of the law. All you need to do is to buy a few hives of bees fcn- yourself. They will steal your neighbor's honey for you. lie can- not impound them, nor prosecute Governments can, of course, com- mit crimes which the individual dare not attempt. A large firm of Brit- ish contractors recently became bank- rupt. At their examination it came out that they had undertaken 'a con- tract for the Greek" Government to build a railway, and had to deposit nearly $500,000 caution-moneY. They had finished a hundred miles, when, owing to certificates from. the Greek Government being in arrear, the firm - were unable to pay their workmen. As soon as the work stop- ped the Greek Government seized the already built line, and impounded the caution -money, a wholesale theft of nearly half a million, for which neither international nor common law seems to offer any redress. In a similar fashion a big corpor- ation is able to bully a private in- dividual, without the latter finding any law to aid him. A man took a shop in London. spent all his saw . ings, OVER FIVE HUNDRED dollarS in fitting up and painting it, His brother left ,a. situation of many years' standing to join him, Three weeks after he opened he Wag served with a ten days' netice to (init. The premises were wanted for the exten- sion of a railway company's works. British law gives him no opening to recover damageS. Abroad, matters are even worse.

She informed the Bench that according to existing law, as sooa as an article was handeti to t[10 pur- chaser, that article passed out of the possession of the seller, so that, in case of non-payment, only eivil pro- ceedings could be taken. The Court was forced to agree, and discharge this magnificent shoplifter. • +— HIS FORETI-IOUGIT, Streeter tells me lie has stopped giving his wife any pin money. Stingy of him, I say!

Health Entirely Re-established by • Dodd's Kidney Fills—Another .Triumph for That Wonderful Remedy—His Eyesight Has Been Strengthened. St. Epi, Que., July 29.—(Special). One year ago a miracle was announc- ed in Chicago. R. A. Wade, the great criminal lawyer, regained his sight after having for years been to- tally blind. 1 -lis case was ,published throughout the length and breadth of America, and it attracted more attention to Dodd's Kidney Pills than any medicine ever got before. For it was Dodd's Kidney Pills that restored his sight. . • 'A similar case has turned up in the village of St. Epi, Que. Though this sufferer was not stone blind, his eyes nevertheless were utterly useless to him • by lamplight. And they have been completely restored 'by Docld's Kidney I'll's, which is an- other point of similarity. There is no attempt made to as- sert Dodd's Kidney Pills are a cure for blindness. Dodd's Kidney Pills are the greatest kidney medicine ever known. That is the claim made for Dodd's Kidney Pills, and there is evidence „„enough to prove that claim. But in cases where Kidney Disease has left poisons in the blood and the said poisons 'attacking the weakest spot, injure the eye, Dodd's Kidney Pills are just as infallible as 'who're the poison attacks the joint of' -the arm or the small of the back. That the eyesight of Thomas St. Pierre was restored is but another argument that Dodd's Kidney. Pills make the blood absolutely pure. Here is AD., St. Pierre's letter: "I am happy to -day to see my health entirely re-established .by Dodd's Kidney Pills. I owe that wonderful remedy a thousand thanks. Before using Dodd's Kidney Pills I had con- sulted many physicians and taken medicines of various kinds, but each made me worse. I had a constant pain . in the back and limbs. At night I couldn't rest and 1 could not see by lamplight. Having taken only two baXes of Dodd's Kidney Pills I am perfectly cured. My eye- sight is clear. I advise all those whose health is not good, from whatever cause, to try Dodd's Kid- ney Pills. Nine times out of ten they will be exact13,-. what is wanted.
