CHINESE DISHES '*/ Of all the Interesting and intriguing thing* that the Chinese- do, their roarvelous handwork, their tireless Industry, nothing is so ^popular as many of their dishes become In America. One may now la almost any market in the dty find the sauces, the canned hearts of palm, the water bulbs, bamboo shoots and , various food accessories used In the Chinese dishes. The following are a few which are worth cherishing: The American way of preparing chop suey Is usually well liked and Is quite tasty without the bean sprouts, although the sauce which is made from betas Is necessary to give ft the proper seasoning. Fresh pork, cut into bits, is cooked until well browned, then finely cut celery is added; a few canned beans will do very well In place of the bean sprouts If they cannot be obtained. Cook until nicely done, heap in the center of a platter and put mounds of fresh hot rice around the meat and vegetables. Pour over all several teaspoonfuls (depending upon the amount served) of soy sauce. Serve at once. Fish Soup.--To two quarts of water add ehlcken bones and trimmings and one and one-half pounds of lean pork, cook until it is reduced to one quart. Cool and skim off the fat Cook a four-pound fish until tender, remove the bones and heal! and shred the meat into pieces about one and onehalf inches long. Canned salmon may be substituted. Soak one-half cupful of dried mushrooms ten minutes in a cupful of lukewarm water and a teaspoonful of sugar. If fresh mushrooms are used peel them and cut into inch and a half pieces. Shred one can of water chestnuts the same way as the fish and mushrooms, shred one cupful of bamBoo shoots. Cook the mushrooms, the shoots and the chestnuts for twenty minutes. Fifteen minutes before serving add the fish, soup stock, and a tablespoonful of soy sauce mixqd with a teaspoonftil of cornstarch. ' Oook fifteen minutes. Spanish Dane* The fandango is danced-by a man and a woman. The time of the dance Is 6-8, but the figures are very lively and the music is supplied by castanets in the hands of the performers, and by a song which is accompanied on the guitar. Sometimes the music is stopped, whereupon the dancers also stop and remain rigid until it is teaumed. When one couple is fired, another Immediately takes its place and the music and the dance go on a» before, with no interruption., f * •• •'f' • Isolate* far Liars "if ^pou speak frhat is untrue,'* said Hi Ho, the sage of Chinatown, "you will find difficulty In speaking truly.
