Morgan i) - THE SALAD MEAL Salad meals are the order of sum- mer days. The combination of meat and vegetables in salads is good be- cause it helps to: effect a balanced Fruits also may be combined with meats or fish with good results, The vegetable or frult acts as a fill. er for the salad and supplies mineral content and ballast in the diet, The following salad may be varled in several ways, as for instance; neat cubes of veal and matchlike pieces of carrots substituted for the beans and tongue, Summer: Salad One and one-half cups cold cooked peans, 1 cup cold cooked ham, 1 cup cold cooked tongue, Bermuda onion, green pepper. Cut ham and tongue in pleces the 'same size as the beans, Mix and add 2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice and 4 ablespoons salad oil beat- en with 34 teaspoon salt and % tea- spoon pepper. Cover and let stand on jce for. an hour or longer, When ready to serve drain from dressing. Wash pepper and cut in rings, re- moving seeds and white pith. Peel onion and cut in slices, Let stand In iced salt water fer ten minutes. Drain and separate into rings. Pile Mternating slices of onion and green pepper one above another on a leaf of lettuce, Fill this little pepper and- »nion cup with the salad mixture and mask with mayonnaise, Liver and Cabbage Salad Liver and cabbage salad is unusual diced cooked liver, 2 tablespoons minced cooked bacon, 1 cup diced cel- ery, 2 cups shrédded crisp cabbage, .French dressing, mayonnaise, curly endive. . Marinate liver and bacon in French dressing for one hour, A few drops of onion juice may be added to the dressing if wanted. Add celery and :abbage and tix lightly. Serve on a sed of curly endive and top with may- onnaise.' ' : Ham Salad : One and one-half cups diced cold boiled ham, 13 cups diced cold boiled potatoes, '1 cup diced celery, 1 hard cooked egg, mayonnaise, Lettuce, Combine ham, potatoes, and celery, tossing lightly with a fork, Add may- onnaise to make moist and serve on crisp lettuce. Garnish with slices. of hard cooked egg and serve, Potato Salad a la Russe A Two cups diced potatoes, 1% tea- spoon grated onion, 3% cup diced pickled beets, 4 sardines, 4 hard cook- Use small new potatoes. Scrub and boil in salted water until tender. Pee] as soon as cool enough to handle, Cut into meat dice and chill. Remove skin and bones from sardines and separate into small flakes. Cut eggs in slices, - Combine materials lightly with mayonnaise and.serve on crisp lettuce. : £5 A brand new use for macaroni is in salad. Perhaps the most import- ne wr is the making of successful oni salads lies in the cooking. Each plece must be firm and smooth, tender but not soft or sticky. The best way to cook macaroni is lo drop it into plenty of boiling water + 3 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon salt to 2 cups macaroni are good propor- tlons--and boil until tender, about 20 Drain well and rinse with cold water, Drain thoroughly and chill, Have all the other materials cold. : Macaroni Ham Salad } This salad {is particularly good terved on a bed of shredded cabbage. One cup cooked and chilled maca- roni, 1 cup chopped cold boiled ham, 1: tablespoon prepared horseradish, 2 pimentoes, 1 cup salad dressing (may- ennaise or cooked dressing), shredded tabhage, Mix Lorseradish and ham thorough- ¥ and combine lightly with macaroni and pimentoes which have been cut in shreds, Moisten with dressing and serve on a bed of shredded crisp cab- bage, Macaroni Egg Salad This is another substantial salad. One. cup cooked macaroni, 2 hard cooked eggs, 3 cup diced celery, 4 tablespoons sliced stuffed olives, salad dressing, shredded leat léttuce, Chop eggs coarsely and combine with macaroni, celery and olives, Add salad. dressing to make moist and serve on a bed of shredded leaf let- tuce. Garnish with halves of stuffed olives. It's better to use the olives stuffed with pimentoes rather than those stuffed with celery or nuts be- cause the red of the pimento makes an attractive touch of color, Special Salad Four young carrots, 2 green onions, % cup cottage oheese, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1-cup shredded spinach, raw, 2 heads leaf lettuce, .3§ cup mayonnaise, 1 cup cooked nood- les. Put carrots and onions through food chopper, mix them into cottage cheese, add salt and sugar. Shred spinach and lettuce (using all lettuce except some leaves for a bed for the salad,) Combine greens, mayonnaise and cottage cheese just before serv- ing and pile onto the lettuce in a large dish or salad bowl. Garnish with a circle of vermicelli or noodles, previously cooked and chilled. Dot with mayonnaise, top with bit of grat- ed carrot. Raw Carrot Salad Two cups grated carrots, raw, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 2 table- spoons chopped green pepper, 1 head lettuce, or leaf lettuce, Combine vegetables, including the lettuce which has been shredded. When ready to serve, add - French dressing aud mix thoroughly. Serve very cold, Good Combinations There are a number of good com- bination salads, and in case they do not occur to you we will mention them below. Be + 'Cooked leftover vegetables -- car- rots, peas, wax beans, beets, aspara- gus +-- are delicious if thoroughly chilled and marinated with mayon- naise. Slices of tomato and cucum- ber and hard-boiled eggs should top these vegetahle salads which are plac- ed on beds of lettuce. Shredded raw cabbage combines well with chopped celery or apples, If celefy is combin- ed with cabbage, use sliced tomatoes as a garnish; if apples, place a small mound of tart-jelly--red currant or grape on salad, Some people like ba- nanag mixed with shredded cabbage and marinated with a bolled salad dressing. Lima beans boiled and mix. ed with diced celery and sliced to- matoes make a substantial salad which children especially like, Other combinations include: Tuna fish with celery, hard cooked eggs, dressing and lettuce; salmon; green peas and cucumbers with shredded lettuce; veal with diced carrots, chicken, with- celery and diced pine- apple, 'crab meat with celery and hard-boiled eggs; lobster with peas and sliced tomatoes and sweetbreads with pineapple. To be quite perfect, the preferred green must be thor- oughly chille1 and crisped and served without a trace of water clinging to its surface. A watery salad is_not only uninviting but also much of the flavor is lost, so watch this point and always allow time to prepare the green properly. The wire salad bask. ets are most convenient, but if you tie the greens loosely in a big square of cheese-cloth and swing it vigorous. ly you will accomplish the same. re- sult, J TRY THESE The big sweet cherries have been on the market for a while now, but the season won't get into full swing until a little later on and the late J. M, Macdonnell, general manager of the National Trust Company, Toronto, reported as likely first overnor of the Bank of Canada. e was formerly manager of the National Trust Co. in Montreal, varieties will last until August, giv- ing plenty of time for practice before, shall we say, an October wedding? The big cherries make a fine des- sert or first course just as they are and a jellied salad of the juice of tart cherries and granulated gelatin with stoned white cherries sprinkled through the mold is delicious and colorful, This salad may he made the day before wanted for serving and is particularly good if chopped nuts are added to the mayonnaise.

DANGER IN BAD WATER A good stockman is particular about the purity of the water supplied his stock and will go to no end of trouble, to see that the water pails and water troughs 'do not become contaminated by the addition of. organic matter or the growth of low forms of plant life. On a farm where three horses died recently, the water trough had be- come very foul, through the addition of barn yard filth that had been blown in by winds. The trough was a good one, being of cement, and the water when it left the pump, coming from a deep well was pure, But the trouble followed neglect in keeping the water trough clean. Three horses died of cerebro spinal meningitis on this farm all in one week at seeding time, A serious loss. A good well and a good trough coupled with neglect, is no better than a poor well and a poor trough. Neglect to keep the "trough clean caused the loss, See that the horses get a cléan water supply al- ways. Watch for the green algae that grows in water during summer, it is dangerous. Keep the water trough clean, and save the labor caused by loss,--L.S. Ontario:Dept. Agriculture, Wool Is Extremely Smart for Summer Without overdoing it in business of matching accessories, Molyneux uses red and white checked taffeta tor the crown and brim (on-the upper side) of a hat, the very tiny turn-over collar on the navy wool dress, a pip- ing of it around the edge of the cape that accompanies the dress, and for a palr of gloves with gauntlet cuffs. It would spoil the whole effect if the-purse were also of taffeta Around the crown of the hat is a wide band of navy wool like the dress, and the under side of the beim i8 also covered with the wool. Maybe you think this doesn't sound very gummery, but you- 'ro all wrong, Wool is as good for summer as it is for winter--Iit is the weight and the "feel" of the material that counts. Sonié of the new summer wools are Infinitely cooler than linen or pique.

PLACE. ~Samaria, Ramoth-gilead. PARRALLEL PASSAGE.--2 Chron, 18:1--20:37, "And they continued three years without war between Syria and Is- rael." The three years (not full years as the next verse shows) are to be counted from the secoud defeat of Benlhadad, the history, that is to say, is resumed from I Kings 20 : 34-43. "And it came to pass in the third year" After peace between Syria and Israel hal lasted two years and part of another year. "That Jehos- haphat the king of JJudah came down to the king of Israel." Jehoshaphat was the good king of Judah who had done so much to reform his realm, putting down idolatry and exalting the worship of Jehovah. "And the king of Israel said unto his servants." His councillors and of- ficers. "Know ye that Ramoth-gil- ead is ours." This Ramoth was an important frontier fortified city ly- ing in the territory of Gad, east of the Jordan, on the Jabbok River in Gilead. And we are still. We keep hushed, as if we did not dare even whisper our rights. And take it not out of the hand of the king of Syria? -Ahab had beaten Ben-hadad twice in battle (L Kings 20), but had allowed the Syrian monarch to live, for which folly he was roundly rebuked by a prophet of Jehovah. And he said unto Jehosaphat, Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ramoth.gilead? This ques. tion, "Wilt thou go with me to bat- tle?" comes to every youth, The evil want to recruit him for their inglor. fous warfare and God's people seek his ald in the struggle for the right against the wrong. And Jehosaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses, That Is, Je- hashaphat put himself unreservedly at the disposal.of Ahab, with all his army, footmeut, and calvary. And Je: hoshaphat said unto the king of Is- rael, Inquire first, I pray thee, for the word of Jehovah. Very likely Jezebel, the master-mind of Israel, had al- read obtained favorable omens from her sycophantic heathen priests; but Ahab would not mention that fact, and Jehoshanhat was too religious to take a step so momentous without directions from Jehovah. Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, They were not true prophets of Jehovah and disciples of the prophets, but prophets of the Je- hovah worshipped under the image of an ox, who practised prophesying as a trade without any call from God, and even If they were not in the pay of the idolatrous kings of Israel, were at any rate in their service. And said unto them, Shall I go against Ramoth- gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? It is well to set before ourselves clearcut questions, And they said, Go up. They knew well what opinion Ahab wanted, and they were there to deliver it. For the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king. The pow- ers of Satan know well how to give a pious cast to their utterances and ad- vice. But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah be- sides, That we may Inguite of im? je. hoshaphat's conscience was not at ease. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah, Micaiah the son of ITmlah, "Micalah is not one of the prophets who are pro- minent in sacred history. He has left no writings. As a man of action, he is entirely overshadowed by his great contemporary, Elijah, But I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good con- cerning me, but evil. It was a weak confession that he was aware of one man who was undisputably a true pro- phet of Jehovah, And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so. Jehosa- phat politely disagrees with Ahab, and implies that the king of Israel may have misjudged the prophet of Jehov- ah, Then the king of Israel called an officer, and sald, Fetch quickly Mica- fah the son of Imlah. Ahab could not afford to antagonize Jehoshaphat, or put his project in a bad light by re- fusing to consult a man whom he ad- mitted to be a prophet of Jehovah. Now the king of Israel and Jehosha- phat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in thelr robes, They were in splendid and fm- pressive attire, for Ahab evidently in. tended to make this a notable.occa- sion. In an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria: In such open places, or squares, public assemblies were customarily brought together and courts were held, in the open air, And all the prophets were prophesy- ing before them, "The scene enacted in" the open market-place of Samaria had its counterpart--its true spiritual reflex--in the great court of heaven." And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, "Zedekiah" means "Justice of Jehov- ah," which indicates that his parents, at least, were followers of the true God, Made his horns of iron. He was acting a parable, as was common with the prophets. And said, Thus saith Jehovah. Zedekiah knew that what Jehoshaphat wanted was "the word of Jehovah," With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until they be consumed. That is, "until they perish," as Mof- fatt translates it; one form of des- truction being substituted for another. And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper. Not one of the four hun- dred prophets dared to strike an un- popular note and breathe a word in opposition to the proposed war, what. ever his private judgment may have been. For Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king. If the expedi- tion should prove fortunate, each man argued, he would gain the credit of being a true seer. If unfortunate, he would have three hundred and ninety. nine comrades in his plight, and the king could hardly punish all of them; or, he could attribute the failure of his prophecy lo some untoward event; or, the king might even perish in battle and never return to bring him to account, And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the pro- phets declare good 'unto the king with one mouth. This indicates that Mica- jah had been in prison, where he would not have learned what was go- ing on, and what would be common knowledge throughout the city of Sa-| Let thy word, 1 pray thee, be like the word of one of them, and speak thou good, The messenger was plainly a friend of the prophet, desir- ing to save him from Ahab's wrath, And Micalah sald, As Jehovah lv. eth. The most solemn and Impress. ivo oath the prophet could use, What 'Jehovah saith -uste- me, that will I speak. A man of God will not allow himself to be swayed by worldly con- siderations, the favor of those In pow. er, the applause of the multitude, gain of goods or advancement in station, ease or safely or any other such mat- ter. To his infinite Master he stands or falls. and stoutly determines to do his will and utter his message. This fs the spirit most urgently needed in our day of turmoil and anxiety, maria.
