Menus, .NeV'erthelese,, Soup ' 'doles' become more important on the cold day i of winter. It can Well be the main dish fat ltincheon; and although the soup at dinner must necessarily be somewhat sitiiplethat i,s to say, nob to,o,areavy•—it, can be varied ac - 'cording to the iiitagination and ability ,of the housewife and the cook. Here are some recipes DiOT some appetizing and seasonable soups, some of them snitable for luneheon and some for dinner. ,Almon•cl soup can be served at dinner.- To make it 'cut four pounds of knuckle of veal into small pieces and •simmer it for about'four hours in three quarts of water, - Then add a„little chopped parsley, two stalks of ce•lery chopped coarsely and some 'salt and pepper. Cook gently for another hour. Strain, eool and take off ,the fab. Heat, add a tablespoon- ful ,of butter rulabed smooth with two tablespoonfuls of Cornstarch and then with some of the hot acinp and cook rapidly for ten minutes. Than add a cupful of blanched al- mseornvtleats,poci)innedeed to a smooth paste. S,almen soup is 'especially suit- able for luncheon. To make it boil slowly a can of •salmon with a quart of water for thirty minutes. Then add two cupfuls of milk, a cupful of fine breadcrumbs, a tablesPoon- ful of butter, pepper and salt to rotbsgtee,r,and cook about five minutes Rice soup is .another •substantial soup. TO make it, boil a sliced onion and a bunch of celery tops in two quarts of water DOT an hour. Strain this and add a cupful of well washed rice and boil until the Ace is very soft—which will probably take forty or fifty minutes, Then season with salt, pepper ,and a dash of grated nutmeg. Break two eggs into the tureen and add a cupful of eream and beat thoroughly with an egg beater, Pour the boiling soup over this, beating all the time. Serve at once with croutons. Herb soup has long been a staricl- by in convents and monasteries. Here is a modernized recipe for it: Wash and shred enough tender spinaCh to measure half a cupful, a quarter of a pint of sorrel and the white heart leaves of a head of /et- tuce. Wash a leek and blanch it and cut a quarter ,spoonfuls of but- ter in a saucepan and spoonful of batter in a 'saucepan and add the greens. Cook for fifteen minutes without browning. Then add two quarbs of boiling water and four medium-sized potatoes, and some -ealT:=•-aihant three level teaspoon- fuls. Boil gankly for an hour. Thep crush the pot:ace-a -"liTtft-- st.' "iiivEr fork, add a tablespoonful of chervil, simmer for five minutes, and serve with croutons. Cocka Leckie is another old soup. In fact the recipe here given is copied from the oldest known re- cipe for soup, which was written some time in the fourteenth cen- tury. Cocks, Leekie has been a favorite everywhere, especially in winter, ia Take it, cut twelve leeks, which have been washed, in pieces half an inch long and cut tw,o stalks of celery and a scraped c.arrob into pieces Of the same size. Put two tablespoonfuls of butter into a saucepan and put in the vegetables. When they are brown, add six cup- fuls of chicken broth and a cupful of cooked chicken, cub in dine. Cover the saucepan and simmer the mixture for two hours. Then add salt and pepper. Beat the yolk of an egg and add a little of •the hob broth to it gradually, beating it all the time.

Or perhaps Celia had better disguise herself as a suffra- gette, and try to borrow a box of matches." "It—it seems rather cheeky," said Celia. , "We'll toss up who goes." , Of course I lost. I went up the drive nervously. At the first turn I decided to be an insurance in- spector, at the next a scout master, but as I approached the front door I thought of a very simple excuse. I rang the bell, and looked about eagerly for the waltint tree. There was 1101111. "Does Mr.—or—Erasmus er— Percival live here 7" I asked the footman, when he appeared. "No, sir," he said—luckily.

Trouble From Tins. Many housewives are ,sumpicions of 'tinned foods, useful though the latter are. On opening a 'bin, at once plunge into the contents a bright steel knitting-needie, and let it remain for a. minute. A steel knife would do, but it must be quite clean. If copper poison is present it is immediately deposited an the steel. This test never fails. Other precautions are : Never ac- cept a tin which is dented or bulg- or which even looka azcienb. Nor if the tradesman takes it front his winclov. Tinned goods make a brave display there, but it's the wrong pia 00 to keep them. All bin- ned goods, both in stores and in the house, should be kept in a cool, dry plaoe, away from 'the direct sun, or the contents deteriorate. Do nob buy tinned goods which bear no maker's name, And when you have opened a tin, 0105101' allow the fish, or whatever it contains, to remain in it. Empty at once into a dish.

Gathered By the Hundreds Thousands in France, The edible snail, which is consid- •sered a delicacy in France, is a very.. different Idnd of snail from that whieli the average man clears out of the back garden, though it is rather similar in appearance, 15 is, however, about five times. as large as the garden snail. The best for tho table, according to Itarper's Weekly, are found in Burgundy, where they are gathered by , hun- dreds of thousands in tho vino - 3'a rds. These snails during the season cost from twelve to fifteen cents a dozen. A dozen snails form just an appetizer, as it were, before a meal, The season lasts from No- vember to February, those months when the snail buries itself. under-, ground to pass the winter. Edible snails are never eaten raw, but are cooked an.d eaten in vari- ous ways. In Paris a dozen snails are served piping hob on a ,dish, and they are ex-Craeted from tfidir-- shells with a special snail fork and eaten whole. In parts of France the cooked dainty is chopped up with butter and herbs before being eaten. In Marseilles the snails are steeped for one or two clays in milk, to make their flesh tender. 4.!
