» • Woman's World By Mair M. Morgan A Challenge to Capt. MoUUon Delicious Lamb Dishes While most of us prefer lamb chops, niere are many dishes that are equal- & appetizing from the shoulder or Dreast of lamb. Each quarter usually weighs from «ix to nine pounds, but the butcher Â¥ui be glad to cut in such sized per- flona as his customer wants. There d little difference of bone and waste tt the forequarter and In the chops, Ipd the price usually la considerably less in the forequarter. Forequarter Tougher The forequarter meat Is naturally tougher than that of the hlndquarter |nd in tough meats the connective tissue is the part that must receive a'peclal attention. By separating the meat, bone and fat, each one can be used to advant- age. The meat can be put through the food chopper ready for attractive chopped "steaks." The bone may be used for broth, the fat chopyad and easily fried out to l:e used for pan-fry- ing. Variety in dishes made with the forequarter df lamb often may be ac- complished by using suitable sauces and other accompaniments such as rice and spaghetti. TUer small family will flud two pounds of lamb from the forequarter sufficient for its needs. The larger family, of course, will need more in ^oportJoc to Ha size. Ways to Prepare When the meat la left In one piece It may be boiled, roasted, braised with vegetables or cooked and prea-sed and served cold. Cut In pieces, Irish stew, fricassee of lamb, casserole of lamb and lamb durry are sure to please. When the meat and bone are separ- ated before cooking, several pleasing dishs may be concocted. The pieces tft clear meat may be pounded thin â€" "Frenched." These are broiled and served with minted currant jelly. Or, Instead of flattening the fillets, each one may be wrapped with a strip of breakfast bacon, held with a toothpick and broiled er baked in a hot oven. If the meat is chopped, it may be made into cakes like Hamburg steaks and broiled or fried. The bone may be boiled to make broth or stock. If the meat, with vege- tables and rice, is added to this broth, a nourishing dish known as Scotch broth is made. Chopped lamb combined with crack- er crumbs and eggs makes a delect- able meat loaf. Served with lamb chops for popularity. The nutritive value of this inexpen- sive meat is quite as great as that of the choicer, more costly cuts. The flavor Is- just as delicious in the Shoulder as in the leg. Hot Cakes For Tea Hot buttered scones and cakes must always find a place on the win- ter tea table. Most of us have our own favorite recipes, but a change is often wel- comed. Here is a simple recipe for scones, for a start, Mix together 2 cups pastry flour, a pinch of salt, half a teaspoon cream tft tartar, a quarter teaspoon bicar- bonate of soda, rub in i tablespoons butter, then add two tablespoons sugar ahd the same of sultanas. Mix to a stiff paste with a little lemon juice, and divide into small milk or an egg, add a tew drops of rounds. Place on a greased tin and bake in a quick oven for about ten minutes. Cool on a wire rack. When re- quired, split open, spread with butter •nd place In a hot oveu tor a few minutes. Potato Scones Now, another scone recipe made with cold, mashed potatoes. One cup cooked, mashed potatoes, 3 tablespoons butter, 8 tablespoons flour, ^ teaspoon bicarbonate soda, the same of cream of tartar, a pinch of salt, and a dessertspoon warm milk, ' Mix the potatoes with the milk, add the salt and warmed butter, then the flour, soda and cream of tartar. Form Into a stiff dough, roll out and put in- to rings. Bake in a hot oven, butter and serve hot. Toaatsd Tea-Cakes Perhaps you prefer tea-cakes. Here is a good recipe: Mix together 2 cups flour, a pinch of salt, halt a teaspoon baking pow- der, y* cup sugar and % cup washed and dried sultanas. Stir In a beaten egg and sufficient milk to make a smooth dough. Turn In to a floured board, and roll out % inch thick. Cut Into rounds, mark a cross on the top with a knife, bruah over the top with beaten egg or milk and sugar, and bake In a hot oven for ten min- utes. When the are to be served, cut the cakes open and toast and butter them. Wafer Pancakes Prince Wins Bet On His Tartan' This is the aeroplane in which Man Mohan Singh, chief pilot to the Maharajah of Patlala, hopes to wrest England-to-Cape Town laurels from the popular British airman, Capt. MoHison, who flew the dls- ' tance In * days 6 hours' and 54 minutes. In Scotland you will usually find delicious thin pancakes on the tea table. Here is a recipe. Sift together one cup flour and a pinch of salt. Add a beaten egg, half a cup milk, and a tablespoon melted butter, and beat well. Lastly a<ld a teaspoon baking powder. Grease a frying pan with a nut of butter and when the pan is hot, drop in a spoonful of the mixture at a time, brown on both sides, and serve at once. A tablespoon of grated chocolate added to the above Ingredients makes these pancakes specially appreciated by the children. Keeping Hose Straight Keeping stockings straight is large- ly a matter of knowing, where to fasten your garters. If you fasten the back garters first, directly over the seams, and then hook the front ones, your stockings never will get twisted. Soiled Windows Most of the modern housewives are quite ready to let the windows ac- cumulate a bit of soil in freezing weather, but If they annoy you so much you must do something about them, moisten your soft cloth with kerosene Instead of water. Household Hints To clean a deep vase, allow a solu- tion of salt and vinegar to stand in it a short time. To scald milk easily, set the jug in a pan of cold water. When water bolls the milk is ready. To make lettuce crisp hang in a draught after draining, tied lightly in a tea cloth. To ventilate a room place a pitcher of cold water on a table in your room and it will absorb all gases. The water will be entirely unfit for use. To mend cut In tablescloth or other fine linen work, button hole stitch with not too coarse thread all around cuts, then turn on the wrong side and holding two edges flrmly overcast the edges. Use dental floss to mend with. Try it for buttons. To clean wall paper: Use 1 cup flour and paster of Paris. Roll It into a moist ball. Clean the paper. sugar before the scalded milk is pour- ed over it. Nuts may be added to vanilla or chocolate pudding. Cornstarch Pudding Two cups milk, 3 tablespoons corn- starch, 6 tablespoons sugar, >4 tea- spoon salt, 1 egg, % teaspoon vanilla. Scald 1% cups milk in top of double boiler. When tiny bubbles appear around the edge of the milk it Is hot enough. Mix cornstarch and 2 table- spoons sugar with remaining cold milk. Stir until perfectly smooth. Pour about half the scalded mill: into the cold ; 'il'.c mixture, stirring rapidly. Add this to milk In the double boiler, stirring constantly. Cook and stir un- til thick and smooth. Remove spoon; cover and cook over hot water, stir- ring occasionally, for twenty minutes. The water in the bottom of the double boiler should be kept boiling. Beat egg slightly with remaining .sugar and salt and slowly add cornstarch mix- ture, stirring constantly. Return to double boiler and cook one minute. Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes. Add vanilla and beat well. Turn into molds which have been dipped In cold water and let stand un- til cold. Then chill thoroughly before serving. An intriguing way to serve this pud- ding is to put a teaspoon of sweeten- ed sherry in each sherbet glass, add the pudding and pour anotljer teaspoon of sweetened sherry over each. Top with whipped cream. For children serve the pudding with sugar and cream, whipped cream or a sauce such as is served over Ice cream. Sunday School Lesson CORNSTARCH PUDDINGS Eggs Aid Dish Eggs may be added to the majority of cornstarch puddings and contribute a pleasing delicacy as well as food value. It eggs are used, remember never to add the egg to the hot corn- starch mixture. The heat will cook the tiny particles of egg almost im- mediately and a speckled mixture will result. Pour the cornstarch mixture slowly into the beaten egg, stirring contantly. When thoroughly blended, return to double boiler and cook one minute. The starch mixture must be well cooked bfore combining with egg. A cornstarch pudding should be stiff enough to hold its shape when uu- molded but not hard or solid. Its tex- ture should be perfectly smooth aud tender and its flavor delicate but not insipid. The [ollowiug rule tor vanilla corn- starch pudding may be varied in sev- eral ways. Chocolate is always a popu- lar flavor and may be made from the ba.sic rule by adding two squares of melted chocolate to the corntarch and Bill of Lading Required All trucksters handling livestock are required by Government regulations, under which their licenses are Issued, to furnish farmers with bills of lading on livestock shipments. Many farmers are not aware of this regulation or the protection it affords them and many cases come to light where livestock shippers have suffered loss through not insisting on a bill of lading from th trucker who hauls his stock to mar- ket. Under the Highways Act, every trucker transporting livestock lor hire is required under his P. C. V. license to furnish a bill of lading to the ship- per. The Regulation affords the pro- ducer an opportunity of determining to whom his livestock is sold. In any case it assures the shipper that he will get his money and a full and cor- rect statement from the purchaser to whom the trucker delivers his load. These regulations do not apply to farmers transporting their own live- stock nor to drovers who purchase out- right from the farmer and transport their purchases to market. But If the farmer falls to insist on a bill of lad- ing from the trucker who hauls his cattle he can have no assurance of where his livestock is sold or to whom, or at what prices, and more- over, he has to accept the trucker's re- sponsibility for returning the money. With a bill of lading from the truck- er a farmer can make sure that his cattle are not sold directly to a Packer by whom the trucker may be employ- ed, if he desires the open competition of the Stock Yards. _ « "Lack of humor is closely associat- ed with lack of optimism." â€" Emil Ludwig. LESSON VIâ€" February 11. â€" Timely Warnings (Temperance Lesson). â€" Matthew 7:1-29. Golden Textâ€" Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit Is hewn down, and cast into the fire.â€" Matt. 7:19. TIMEâ€" Midsummer of A.D. 2S, the second year of Christ's ministiy. PLACEâ€" The Horns of Hattin, a hill \TOst of the Sea of Galilee. "All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them." "Therefore" goes back to the preceding verses of the chapter. As we ai-e to stand before the judgment seat of God (verse 1), so we are to judge others with charity. "For this is the law and the prophets." This rule summarizes the teaching of the Old Testament, which Christ came to fulfill (see Matt. 5: 17). "Enter ye in by the narrow gate." Enter thus, says Christ, into the king- dom .of God. The way of the gospel is naiTow because it is the way of hu- mility. The g^ate of heaven is too strait for self-justification. Finally, the path of the gospel is narrow be- cause it is the path of love. "For wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction." The Bible knows only two classes because it knows of only two characters. The Bible divides men into godly and un- godly; righteous and unrighteous; good and bad. "And many ai-e tliey that enter in thereby." The Easy Gate! Behold the crowds that are surging through it! This gate at- tracts; this gate invites. "For narrow is the gate, and .'Strait- ened the way, that leatleth unto life." The gate is strait, but it is always open. The narrow way is nari-ow, hut it gi-ows wider as you go on. The end is everlasting life. "And few are they that find it." Who said that few find the way, and in what tone did he utter the words? Jesus spoke them, and spoke them w-ith a sigh. His com- plaint that few are coming is the sweetest and strongest encouragement for all to come. "Beware of false prophets." Pro- phets here not in the sense of seers, foretellers, but in the moiie common Old Testament sense of preachers, forth-tellers. "Who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inw-ardly are rarening wolves." These false teach- ers wear the outward appearance of guileless seekers after truth, while all the time they are seeking to destroy- the truth. "By their fruits ye shall know them." There was held at the Colum- bian Exposition a Parliament of Reli- gions, at which repi-esentatives of the religions of the world presented their theories, and each went home quite satisfied that he had exhibited a more perfect theory of religion than the others. It wus a poor test. The only test worth anything would have been the bringing together of the people* that the religions had made. "Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?" In the natural world you will not find valuable fruit growing upon a common bush; no more will you in the spiritual. What a man says must be lived out in his life. His character will as-suredly translate itself into his actions. "Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but the corrupt tree bringeth forth jvil fruit." The great- est apologetic on earth is the Chris- tian. Christ's mightiest miracle is he who incarnates the Christ. "A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit." The »aloon ia an ovil tree. Poets may laud the spark- ling wine cup, but always there is a deadly snake in the grass. "Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn daw^n, and cast into the fire." The Jews did not cultivate t.i>ees for shade or beauty, but only for their fruit. "Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them." A r.oted scoffer was once inben-upted in his noisy excitement by two questions: 1, What would be the eflfect upon this world if everybody Avas a consistent Christian? 2, What woulil be the effect upon this world if everybody was a consistent infidel? The argument is a crushing one. "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the king- dom of heaven." He does not mean that \.e are not to call him Lord with our lips, but that our lives are to fol- low our words. "But he that doeth the will of my Father who is in hea- ven." Religion is not a dogma, nor an emotion, but a service. "Mai.y will say to me in that day." the day of judgment. "Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name." Teach in Christ's name. "And by thy name cast out demons, and by thy ntire do many mighty works?" For good rea- .sons, they had received power to work miracles and thus aid in the spread of the gospel, though theirs was a mere surface profession of Christianity. "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you." With what a ter- rible shock will those stern and solemn words come to them! "Depart from me, ye that work iniquity." That will be hell, to be absent from Jasus.. This Is the reason for eternal punishment. Men will be eternal sinners. "Everyone therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them." Hearing, as Christ would have us con- tinually remember, is useless without doing. "Shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock." A wise man can easily reach a fiimi basis on which to rear his life. "And the rain descended, and the floods came and the winds blew, and boat upon that house." The narrative emphasizes the separate elements of the .storm. "And it fell not: for it was founded upon the roc!:." It is a substantial structure. "And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not." Our Lord (verse 29) taught as one having authority. "Shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand." The imagery is from a mountain country where tlie toi-rent beds, sometimes more than half a mile in width in the plain below the mountain, are dry in summer, and present a le\'el waste of sand and stones. "And the rain deicendeu, and the floods came, and the winds blew, aiid smote upon that hou.se." The testing of character by trials and tiempbation is for all, the weak and the strong, t*ie wise and the foolish alike. "And it fell: and great was the fall thereof.'' Great was the fall thereof does not mean that the ouilding was a large one, but that thj whole edifice fell, so that the ruin was complete. The warn- ing applies to small characters as well as great. ♦ "In the kingdom of God there are neither favorites nor atep-ohildren." â€" Cardinal Faulhabor of Germany. Autographed Pound Nota Draw3 Tidy Price for British Legion r.,ondoix, Erig.â€" A one-pound not* autographed by the Prince of Watec and Genoi^al Sir Ian Hamiltonâ€" il was the amount of a bet between them â€" has been purchased by « Glasgow man for a sum which runs into thre^ flguiies. I Describing the incident, Crtsneral SiB Ian Hamilton said a bet waa mad* between the Prince and himself. "I tore the Prince went to Rothesay August," he said, "I had the temeri to express the opinion that the tar .to be worn by the Prince as Duke oi Rothesay was a red tartan. Nobod; had ever seen it, as it was so lo: since a Duke of Rothesay had \'isi the Firth of Clyde Island. j "It tume<i out that I was wrong,' continued Sir Ian, "for tlie Prinoi appeared in a beautiful green and purple. When I saw that I pulled oiU a one-i>ound note and handed it ove« to the Prince. Thereupon the Prin«( smiled and handed over the note tt the treasurer of the British Legiou who later decided to dispose of H iq aid of the Legion funds." i The purchaser of the note wishi to remain anonymous and did not di sire to divulge the amount paid. "II was a very handsome sum," a<i Sir Ian.
