, meat when it is not possible to broil
- them, Broiled meat is more health-
ful and also less wasteful than any
other form of cooked meat.
To Pan. Broil
Heat an iron frying pan red hot,
then place in it the meat, Turn it
eoustantly until cooked, When using
gas range for broiling always place
one quart of boiling water and one
tablespoonful of salt in the dripping
-pan, This will prevent the fat from
catching fire; it will also facilitate the
easy r'emovat tf this fat, which when
cold, can be lifted with a knife or
spatula.
Meat, when broiling always puffs
alightly, This is partly due to the
quick searing of the surface. As the
meat cooks this disappears, so that
if you press the meat slightly with a
knife and it does not feel spongy it is
then ready to serve. Do not overcook
meat, It Loses all ntttritive value as
a food if it is cooked until hard and
dry.
Roasting auci Batting of Meats
Roasting or grilling is done before
open file; thb pleat being torned fre-
quently, so that all sides may be cook-
ed alike. The meat is basted with its
own fat, .This method of cooking meat
is used daily in Europe, but not much
used in this country.
When a piece of meat is large it is
roasted. Moat cooked in an oven by
radiated heat is frequently called in
this country "roasting." It is well
known and needs little description.
When baking meat always use a wire
rack to lift the meat from the bottom
of the pang This will insure even
cooping.
Use the broiling oven in the gas
range for roasting, placing rade suf-
ficiently low. Hale the oven hot en-
ough to brown meat quickly, then re-
duce the heat so that it will cook even-
ly, turn the roast three times during'
the process.
Allow one-half an :sour after placing
meat in the oven before counting the;
time. This is necessary so that the !
meat may reach the required tempera-
ture to start cooking.
Note: Never dish meat on a cold
platter. The contact of a cold dish 1
with the hot meat will injure its deli- I
c I
Bailing, braising, steaming, grilling
broiling., sauteing, rgasting and bak
ing are the various terms used to d
note the methods employed in cooking
meats.
Boiling is a term used to denote a
process of cooking meat by boiling in
water. Two methods are need ill
this process, namely, cooking meat is
in soup, second as in stewing.
Boiling as in Soup
The meat is placed in cold water and
brought' slowly to a boil, It is then
cooked for timenecessary to obtain the
nutriment in the broth or liquid,
usually three-quarters of an hour for
each pound of meat.
Boiling as i11 Stewing
Plunge the meat into boiling' water.
This causes the albwnen to form a
coating over the surface of the meat,
thus protecting the juices, It is a
well-known fact that the albumen in
the meat coagulates upon the appli-
cation of heat. The :neat is then cook-
ed until it is tender. Time allowance
is about thirty-five minutes to the
pound.
Correct Method of Boiling Meat
Placethemeat in a saucepan of boil-
ing water and then keep the water
boiling rapidly for five minutes after
the pleat is added. Then place the
saucepan in a position where it will
cook just below the boiling point for
the required length of tune. Con
Stant and rapid boiling will cause the
albumen in the meat to harden; there-
fore no amount of cooking afterward
will soften the fiber. It will only
cause the meat to fall apart without'
. being tender.
It is important to keep the sauce-'
pan closely -covered. This will pre-
vent the delicate aroma from evapor-
ating.
Braising : Meat is places ill a hot;
saucepan and turned frequently. It
is cooked in its own juices in a close
ly coverted saucepan,
Steaming: Cooking meat by placing
in steam bath or steamer,
Grilling:Cooking meat over a hot
fire on a grill made for this purpose:
Broiling; A very hot fire is neces-
sary for this mode of cooking meat.
Only the choicest, tenderest and most
'icate cuts are suitable for cooking
unt by this method. The strong heat in -i
stantly coagulates the albumen by
1d; searing it, thus retaining all its juices n
he and flavor. That this method may
tib- be successful it is very necessary that
ers the meat be turned every few mo-
ad ments. This also insures it being
ad cooked evenly.
he� Pan Broiling: This is another o
-f cooking the fine cuts of p
ate aroma.
In many portions of France and
tgland chops and steaks are served
upon platers set over a utensil of hot
water or a special fuel that can be
burned in a container that holds the
platter. When serving a large steak
always have a cover of metal or an-
ther hot dish turned over the meat to
revent it chilling.

i•
too, which eh h
dared not breathe to any oi1e. They
seemed so wild and unfounded that
they would not bear the test of a mi-
nute's careful thought, and yet they
constantly haunted him.
Of course he know nothing of what
was being settled between the officers;
he had not the slightest idea of the
nature of the plans which had mis-
carried, he like the others only had
a vague feeling that something was
wrong.
One day, while near the canal which
runs round the foot of the old ram-
parts of the City, he noticed that the
Brigadier and Colonel Blount were
talking with two staff officers; one of
the latter was a general, while the
other was a captain. Tom felt sure
that the captain was Waterman, whom
he had known in Branford.
Tom was reclining near a danger-
ous corner, close by the Potijze Road
which runs straight to the beginning
of the British communication trench.
German shells were constantly
screeching their way through the air,
and falling in various parts of the old
town; but by this time he had be-
come so accustomed to these ominous
sounds that he had almost ceased to
take notice of them. There was only
one chance in a hundred that one of
them might fall near him, and as he
had been so far fortunate, he, like
hundreds of others in a similar condi-
tion, thought he might escape alto-
gether, Besides, although he stood
near the dangerous crossing he Was in
a sheltered position, and as the day
was hot he sat under the shade of a
wall and looked out oil the ruins of the
old city.
A few seconds later the group of
officers passed close by him, and Toni
immediately rose and saluted,
"Oh, this is the man," said Colonel
s the movements of those above him;
a all the same he felt as though ham-
mei•s were beating against his fore-
head so excited was he.
The next night Tom's company was
ordered to relieve a number of men
who had been a good many horn's in
the trenches, and just as the shadows
of evening were falling they crept;
along the Potijze Road towards the
communication trench. An ]tour lat-
' er Tom had taken up his post in the I
zig-zag cutting with a feeling that!
so ,
something of importance was going to
happen.
Hour after hour passed away, and:
still Tom w.mdered at what he had
seen and heard. He had no definite!
I data upon which to go, no tangible
reason for his suspicions, and yet
with that bulldog tenacity character-
istic of the sharp Lancashire boy he
kept thinking of what he ought to do.
Presently he heard a voice which he
recognised; it was that of Major
Blundell, in reply to something that
had boon said to him.
"Yes, yes," said the Major, "I quite
-understand."
"You are sure you have the instruc-
tions plain?"
"Perfectly Pure,,,
"Then I will got along here and
speak to Captain Winfield."
"Let me come with you," said Major
Blundell !
"Oh no, certainly not." I know the
way perfectly well. Good night,
Blundell."
Good night, Waterman,"
It was a fairly bright night, al -1
though a few clouds hung in the sky.:
Tom heard approaching footsteps, and'
then hid himself in a sharp corner of,
the trench while Waterman passed'
him. Tom followed noiselessly, all
the time keeping out of sight 'of the
man he watched, This he was able
o do with comparative ease, owing to
he zig-zag nature of the trench. Tom
knew that at this particular point they
were only a little more than a hundred
yards from the German lines, and that
the German snipers were constantly'
n the watch for any one who might
tappen to show himself above the
and -bags. I3e had not gone more
han twenty yards when ho saw Wa-
erinan stop and look around. - •
Tom stopped almost instinctively,
till hidden by a sharp turn in the
spirit of restlessness and suspicion
was felt in the whole regiment. It
seemed to them as though there was
an Achan in the camp, yet no one
knew who the traitor might be.
Of course all these misadventures
might have been owing to unfortunate

Harness for Shaving.
Now and then one meets -a man who
brags that he can shave himself 'With-
out a mirror. It is a worth -while
accomplishment, inasmuch as there
are likely ;to be occasions in the
trenches, for instance, if he goes to
the war—when no looking -glass is at
hand.
But most mpn cannot .get along
without such a convenience, and they
ought to appreciate the advantages of
a newly invented kind of harness
which fits over the shoulders, with a
mirror supported' in front.
The arrangement is such that the
mirror can be adjusted atany desir-
ed distance from the eye; and, to
make it complete, there is a holder
for the shaving -brush and another
for the mug.
Experiments carried on at various '
experiment stations show that where
manure is exposed to the weather for
a period of live 01' six months no less
than fifty per cent. of the,fortilityds
