1½ cups sugar¾ cup butter3 tablespoons milk—sweet or sour3 eggs—whites and yolks beaten separately1 teaspoon soda1 heaping teaspoon cinnamon1 heaping teaspoon ginger1 level teaspoon cloves1 cup chopped seeded raisins1 cup chopped nutsEven cup of flour
Drop on greased pan and bake.
1½ cups sugar3 eggs1 cup chopped walnuts or hickory nuts1 teaspoon cinnamon1 teaspoon vanilla1 cup butter1 cup chopped raisins1-3 cup sliced citron1 teaspoon cloves½ teaspoon soda
Dissolve soda in tablespoon hot water. Flour enough to make a stiff batter, drop in small cakes with teaspoon and bake in slow oven.
1 cup butter4 eggs1 lemon—juice and rind4 cups sugar4 teaspoons baking powder1 pound package grated cocoanut
Cream sugar with butter. Add the yolks of the 4 eggs and beat well. Add juice and rind of lemon. Then flour, into which has been sifted the baking powder. Sift flour and baking powder twice before adding to mixture. Use enough flour to make a very stiff batter, add cocoanut, and last, fold in the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff froth.
Drop on buttered tins and bake in moderate oven.
First bake a shell as for lemon pie, then make a filling as follows: Mix one tablespoon of cornstarch in a little cold water, and over this pour one cupful of boiling water. To this add the juice of two grapefruits, the grated rind and juice of one orange, the beaten yolks of two eggs, and the white of one, and a small piece of butter. Put all in the double boiler and cook until thick, stirring all the time. When done, put in the shell. Now beat up the white of the second egg with one-half a cupful of sugar until thick, and spread with a knife over the pie. Put in the oven and let brown lightly. Serve cold. This makes a delicious pie.
The yolks of three eggs, one and one-half cupfuls of sugar, one cupful of cream, two tablespoons of flour, two-thirds of a cupful of butter, one teaspoon of spice, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Mix the flour and sugar together, then cream with the butter. Add the yolks of the eggs, beating thoroughly. Next add cream and spices. Use the whites for the frosting.
1½ cups milk2 egg yolks2 tablespoons sugara little salt1 tablespoon butterVanilla to taste
Scald milk; beat eggs; add sugar; pour into milk, beating constantly, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 1 tablespoon flour (rounded).

One level cup of flour, one-half cup of lard, one-half teaspoon salt, one-fourth cup ice cold water, one teaspoon baking powder. Mix salt, baking powder and flour thoroughly, chop in the lard, add water. Use as little flour as possible when rolling out. This makes a light, crisp, flaky and delicious pie crust.

Mix the crust with tact and velvet gloves, using no sarcasm, especially with the upper crust. Upper crusts must be handled with extreme care for they quickly sour if manipulated roughly.
Sigmund Spaeth, in his "Operatic Cook Book, in Life," gives this recipe for the making of the opera "Pagliacci."
Beat a large bass drum with the white of one clown. Then mix with a prologue and roll very thin. Fill with a circus just coming to town. One leer, one scowl and one tragical grin. Bake in a sob of Carusian size. Result: the most toothsome of Italy's pies.

Woman Suffrage has gone beyond the trial stage in Idaho. We have had it in operation for many years and it is now thoroughly and satisfactorily established. Its repeal would not carry a single county in the State.
The women form an intelligent, patriotic and energetic element in our politics. They have been instrumental in accomplishing many needed reforms along domestic and moral lines, and in creating a sentiment favorable to the strict enforcement of the law.
The impression that Woman Suffrage inspires an ambition in women to seek and hold public office is altogether wrong. The contrary is true. The women of Idaho are not politicians, but they demand faithful and conscientious service from public officials and when this service is not rendered their disapproval is certain and unmistakable.
Woman suffrage produces no wrong or injury to society, but it does engender a higher spirit of civic righteousness and places political and public affairs on a more elevated plane of morality and responsibility.

Bake in moderate oven one-half hour. Serve with cream or sauce.
One-half pound of prunes, three tablespoons of powdered sugar, four eggs, a small teaspoon of vanilla. Beat the yolks of the eggs and the sugar to a cream, add the vanilla and mix them with the prunes. The prunes should first be stewed and drained, the stones removed, and each prune cut into four pieces. When ready to serve, fold in lightly the stiffly whipped whites of the eggs, having added a dash of salt to the whites before whipping.
Turn it into a pudding dish and bake in a moderate oven for 20 minutes. Serve very hot directly it is taken from the oven.

A Salad to Fit in With Any Scheme of Decoration You May Wish to Carry Out.
To make a yellow salad use the yellower heart leaves of lettuce. On them put diced orange pulp, dressed with French dressing and sprinkled with chopped walnut meats. Or else scoop out the centers of small yellow-skinned apples and fill them with a mixture of orange and apple, dressed with mayonnaise made with lemon juice for thinning and a flavoring of mustard.
On green, but tender leaves of lettuce, put a little mound of spinach, which has been boiled and pressed through a sieve and mixed with French dressing. In the center of each mound, concealed by the spinach, put a spoonful of chopped hard-boiled egg.
Peel and boil tiny white turnips of equal size and hollow out the center of each. Fill with cold boiled peas and mayonnaise and put on green lettuce leaves.
Celery, potato, chicken—white meat only—white fish, blanched asparagus—any or two of these may be used for white salad. Dress with French dressing or with a white mayonnaise, to which the beaten white of egg has been added and which has been thinned with vinegar.
Scoop out the inside of tomatoes. Save the slice removed from the top for a cover and replace it on the tomato after filling it with a mixture of celery and nut meats, mixed with mayonnaise. Place each tomato on a white leaf of lettuce.
Strain tomato juice and mix it with equal quantity of white stock—veal or chicken. Thicken sufficiently with gelatin and harden in molds. Serve on white lettuce leaves, with mayonnaise that has been colored with a little cranberry juice.
Make mayonnaise with much egg yolk in proportion to other ingredients, and thin with cider vinegar. Dice tender carrots and arrange on lettuce leaves, dressing with orange mayonnaise.
Animals feed, Men eat, but only intelligent Men know what to eat. BrillatSavarin
In Tomato Aspic—Tomato jellies with sardines should be made in ample time to harden on ice. The aspic referred to is ordinary gelatin mixed with soup stock instead of plain water. Remove the skin from sardines, then split them open and take out the backbone and cut them into narrow strips.
Mix together in equal quantities some stiff mayonnaise sauce and cool, but liquid, aspic jelly then stir in some chopped capers and small pieces of tomato, in theproportionof a dessertspoon of each to half a pint of the mayonnaise and aspic mixture; and, lastly, add the sardines.
Have at hand some small tomato molds which have been rather thickly lined with tomato aspic, fill them with the sardine mixture and leave on ice until the jellies can be unmolded; serve each on a small leaf of lettuce, and surround with a salad of water-cress and sliced tomatoes.
Yolks of 2 eggs3 tablespoons of sugar2 tablespoons of tarragon vinegar1 pinch of salt
Beat well; cook in double boiler. When cold and ready to serve, fold in ½ pint of whipped cream.
Four large cucumbers, one small onion, half a box of gelatine soaked in half a cup of cold water, salt and white pepper to taste. Peel the cucumbers, cut into thick slices and place, with the sliced onion, over the fire with a scant quart of water. Simmer for an hour, stir in the gelatine and, when this is dissolved, season the jelly, strain it and set aside to cool. It may be formed into small moulds and turned out on lettuce leaves, or used in a border-mould for garnishing a fish or tomato salad, or set to form in a salad bowl and taken out by the spoonful and served on lettuce leaves. French dressing is better with it than mayonnaise.

½ teaspoon salt2 tablespoons lemon juice½ teaspoon pepper4 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups of oilyolks of 3 eggs½ cup of vinegar
Make this carefully into a smooth and well blended mayonnaise. It will take fully ½ hour, but the success of the dressing depends upon the mayonnaise. Now stir in slowly ½ bottle chili sauce until well mixed with the mayonnaise. Then chop together very fine 1 bunch of chives, 3 hard boiled eggs, 2 pimentos, ½ green pepper; add paprika and salt to taste and mix well with the mayonnaise.
This will make about 1 quart of dressing. It should be kept in a cool place and covered when not in use. It will keep a long time.
