Delicious Dishes
To many persons creamed dried
beef is just creamed dried beef—a
More or less tasteless and rather un=
aatisfactory dish resorted to in a dull
moment. But when care is taken in
Its making it becomes a palatable and
Appetizing coaconction.
Thesecret of delectable creamed
dried beef lies in "frizzling" the beef
before adding the cream'sauce. Dried
beef is lacking in Pat so this must be
supplied. Melt butter in . frying pan,
add beef carefully picked in small
pieced with all bits of stringy tissue
removed and cook overt a low fire until
the edges of the beef curl. Use one
tablespoon flour for each cup of milk
used in sauce. Sift flour over beef and
stir with a fork until flour is absorbed.
Add milk and bring to the boiling
point, stirring constantly to make
smooth. The sauce made this way is
aout the color of old ivory and has a
delicious flavor. No salt is needed be-
cause the beef furnishes enough salt
for the sauce, Pepper may be added
if likedd,. One slice of onion and a few
celery leaves may be scalded in the
milk if a more savory sauce is wanted.
Strain to remove vegetables and be
sure to cool milk before making sauce.
cold -liquid insures a smooth sauce.
A very attractive way to serve
creamed frizzled _beef is to put the
creamed beef in. the centre of a large
serving dish. Then arrange long
• strips of buttered toast from the beef
to the edge of the dish and pile hot
potato chips between the toast strips.
Garnish wih sprigs of parsley or
sprinkle minced parsley over the
creamed beef. Potato chips which
have been made several days in ad-
vance may be re -heated in a moderate'
oven to make hot for serving. cs
• Macaroni with tomatoes and dried
beef is a splendid luncheon dish. It
should be served with a. crisp lettuce
or cabage salad and a custard dessert.
Scrambled eggs gain interest by the
addition of dried beef. Frizzle the
chipped beef in butter in frying pan be -
for adding milk and eggs and then
proceed as usual. -
- Mushrooms make an effective gar.
nish to creamed dried beef as well as
' to scrambled eggs and -beef. Perfect-
ly creamed dried beef -'with broiled
mushrooms is worthy a' place on any
party luncheon table.

Stale Cake Hint
Certain varieties of cake will keep
moist and palatable until the last
crumb disappears, but others, particu-
larly sponge cakes and plain white
cakes, become dry and undesirable the
second day after they are baked.
There
are man
really y delicious des-
serts that can be made with stale cake
if the cook uses a little ingenuity. A
light cake which is very dry can be
crumbled, soaked in milk until soft,
and then combined with eggs to make
a very acceptable pudding.
The procedure is almost identica
with that for a bread pudding, thoug
care must be taken not to make it to
sweet when cake crumbs are used.
Plain cake which is not dry enough
for crumbling, but has lost its fresh-
ness, can be cut in pieces for serving
and steamed until hot and moist.
Serve with a Iiquid sauce and garnish
with whipped cream if convenient.
Mock tipsy pudding, a light and de-
lectable dessert, is made with stale
sponge cake or lady fingers. Cut
sponge cake in thin, narrow slices and.
spread with any kind of jam or pre-
serves. Peach or apricot is very good.
Arrange in layers in a deep dish and
pour two cups of thin boiled custard
over cake slices. Let stand over night
or for several hours until the cake ab-
sorbs the custard. Serve very cold
With whipped cream. The custard
should be very slightly sweetened
'since the cake and jain are both sweet.
eJ1 these suggestions prevent waste
and aro a decided means towards
economy.

A good uncooked pudding uses two
cups dry cake crumbs, 1 cup stewed

fruit through colander to remove
stones and skins and make smooth.
Mix crumbs and fruit well and fold in
cream whipped until firm. Turn into
a shallow pan and let stand on ice for
several hours to chill and become firm.
Cut in squares and serve with more
whipped cream, slightly sweetened
and flavored with vanilla,
Return of the Biscuit
Once upon a time no tea table was
complete without some kind of bis-
cuits.
Then cake superseded them, and it
was a rare occurrence—usually when
there was no cake in the pantry for
them to appear on the table.
Recently I have noticed on "two or
three occasions when I have been at
other people's houses, that the little.
home-made tea biscuit is returning.
With the afternoon cup of tea or
the after-dinner cup of coffee they ore
ideal.
The art of biscuit -making is not
easy. Time and care must be bestow-
ed upon the making, and particularly
the baking. A biscuit should be very
crisp and short.
You might like try try your hand at
making some.
Lemon Fingers
Beat four ounces of butter and four
ounces of sugar to a cream. Add a
well -eaten egg and the grated rind of
one lemon, a pinch of salt and eight
ounces of flour.
Mix thoroughly, knead well and roll
out. Cut into thin fingers and bake
in a cool oven.
Coffee Biscuits
Into aa lb. of flour and 2 oz. of
sugar work 1/4 lb. butter or margarine:
Add half a teaspoonful baking pow-
der, then work up with one egg beaten
up with about a tablespoonful of milk.
The dough should be very smooth.
Roll out, cut and stamp, and bake
in a quick oven until a light brown
color.
These are plain biscuits to go with
after-dinner coffee, but they can be
iced if desired.
Chocolate Fingers
To 4 oz. of flour add about a quarter
of a teaspoonful of baking powder.
Rub in 39z.
0 of lard. Then add 3 oz.
of castor sugar and 3 oz. of cocoa. Pour
in one egg and make into a paste.
Roll out thin and cut into strips
about 1 in. wide and 3 ie. long. Put
into a moderate oven and bake until
crisp.
Useful Hints
Many people find sage and onion
tufting too rich. If, however, a pinch
of ground ginger is mixed in with the
other ingredients it will be trend
quite digestible as well as a better
flavor than usual.
i'wo cups cake crumbs, 1 egg, milk,
jelly, 2 tabiesiaoons sugar.
The amount of .milk needed will de-
pend • on the variety* of the cake and
on the staleness of the crumbs, but it
Fish cakes, rissoles and other fried
foods that are mixed with egg often
break in cooking. This will not hap-
pen if the white only of the egg is
used, and they can be turned or moved
about in the pan at will and still re-
main whole.
Add a few drops of parraflin oil to
the water in which you wash steps,
and your hands will not become chap-
ped on chilly mornings.
Screening For Effect
Screens should play an important
part in your interior decorating
schemes. Besides being useful for hid-
ing unsightly corners, beds and other
places you don't want to show, they
are decorative.
Attractive screens for kitchen can
be made by covering an inexpensive
screen with squares of oilcloth to
match your table cover. Or, if you
have an old faded one in the house try
covering it with sante cretonne as
your curtains. -

INTRODUCTION—To-day's lesson will
mark another milestone along the
Costly 'Way. All attempts to seciire
some quiet with his disciples failed:.
Further controversies with the Phari-
sees (Mark 7: 1-23) widened still
more the breach that already separat-
ed Jesus from the religious leaders.
He decided to go, for the time being,
into voluntary exile. rye Ie. In Phoenicia he
would be unknown, therefore safe and
unmolested. The "Galilean Ministry"
was at an end.
I ONE OF THE FAMILY, Mark 7: 24-
80.
Arriving in the purely heathen ter-
ritory of Phoenicia, Jesus took elab-
orate precautions to avoid recognition.
Nevertheless, he• was discovered. A
native woman followed him, implor-
ing him to heal her daughter, vs. 24,
25. How did she know hint? Rumors
of a wonderful healer had perhaps
conte across the borders. Perhaps the
disciples, so proud of their Master's
healing powers, talked too much. In
any case the intuition of one in great
trouble told her, "Here is the Healer."
Jesus was one of those people, some of
whom are still among us, to whom
folk in trouble always come. The
daughter's illness was apparently one
of those pathetic mental and nervous
dei angements which seem to have
been so common in Palestine in those
days.
The mother was a "Greek," that is,
a pagan. "Syro-phenician" means a
Phenician of Syria. The fact of in-
terest here is that she was a pagan.
She implored Jesus to heal her child.
Jesus had come to this country to
avoid just this kind of thing. Were
his words (v. 27) a hard, unfeeling
rebuff; or a very gentle, playful test-
ing of the woman's faith? Cold print
does not show his kindly smile. which
reassured her. It was quite true.
Jesua' first duty was. to his own peo-
ple. He must try to get them to see
the meaning of their long spiritual
tzaining. It meant that they were to
be the missionaries of the truth to
others. Hence his "the children first,"
then the "little doggies': (the force
of ths. word "dog") the domesticated
pets of the household—its special care
—meant that pagans were part of his
family. They were the under -privi-
leged, weaker members, IsraeYs spe-
cial'care. Thus v. 27, instea., of being
harsh, is tender and beautiful. Had
the dull leaders of he nation, and the
later "Christian" nations, grasped

international friendship would have
been well and truly laid.
The healing of the girl had the
usual results. The publicity and ex-
citement once more defeated Jesus'
purpose. He turned again to the
south, crossed Jordan and entered the
district known as Decapolis, a loose
confederation of cities. "Decapolis"
mean "ten cities."

Medical Officer Commends
Old -Fashioned Spanking
Ideas about child punishment so old-
fashioned as to be almost revolution-
ary; were expressed by Dr. F. C. Shru-
eall, senior medical officer of the
,school system of London, England, in
a recent address in that city before
the Child Study Society, Says Dr, E.
E, Free, in his Week's Science (New
York)
"One of of his ideas is that the most
scientific way Co. punish a child is by
an old-fashioned spanking,'being sure
that this is hard enough to be really
painful.
"Another is that the spanking must
be done immediately and in anger,
instead of waiting until later when the
outraged parent has cooled off. Dr,
Shrubsall insists that anger is ,quite
well understood by the ehild, and has
the proper effect on it, whereas later
punishment accompanied by 'reason-
ing' with the child is not understood
and merely impresses the child as one
more of the myriads of inexplicable
things which adults do,
"Pain in the skin, like that from a
good spanking, Dr. Shrubsall regards
as nature's method of training all
young animals. This is how the ani-
mal, or the baby, learns to avoid harm-
ful objects, as evidenced by the pro-
verb that a burnt child dreads the fire.
One reason why this is so effective
is that the pain follows instantly on
the fiery contact, which is why spank-
ings also should follow immediately
on the offense. Merely mental punish-
ments, such as scoldings or arguments,
are unnatural and relatively ineffec-
tive. Fortunately, Dr. Shrubsall be-
lieves that psychological theories
against spanking seldom are really
practiced. 'There probably is no child
psychologist in existence,' he said,
'who, having a child of his own or
her own, has never spanked it."'

Issue Fashion Edict
London has almost as much say in
dictating the laws of women's fashions
as Paris these days. Here are Lon-
don's edicts for spring styles:
There will be no change in wom-
en's figures. Elegance and "stream-
line" will be the keynote, and slim-
ming diets will have to be continued.
The waistline will be just above the
normal one.
Some of the newest evening dresses
have sleeves whch reach to the el-
bow, fit close over the shoulder and
for a few inches down the arm, and
then are puffed widely.
Walking frocks will end 12 inches
off the ground, formal afternoon
dresses 10 inches, while evening dress-
es will just clear the floor.
As if to make up for their "back
lessness," evening gowns will be cut
higher in front, iii some cases`almost
up to the neck.
The lightweight dresses, made from
fancy materials, provide a fresh range
of woollen stuffs for Spring frocks.
These are very fine and very light, but
there are signs that materials with
crinkled and crepe -like surfaces will
be replaced.

THE GREAT
And this is how we love to think
of the great and the good who are
gone—not as dead, but living, active
spirits, yet rising to a highter sphere,
rising into a larger, wider life In the
ample, sunlit spaces in the presence
of God; and still, 1n some way, one
with us in all upward striving and
in all holy work, a great family of
God, one in heaven and on earth.—
