Reducing The High Cost Of Living.
MON'G the supplies which are still reasonable In price arc rice, corn-
meal, and seafoods together with their products, and this is an excel-
lent time to use them frequently. In ipany localities condensed
milk reduced according to directions Is cheaper than fresh milk
anu the home cook «ho knows how to use It can prepare endless delicious
things for her family. Try these;
Corn Muffins.
4 tbs. condensed milk
cups of water
1 cup white cornmeal
1 cup flour
Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together and mix the cornmeal
with this. Dilute the condensed milk with the water. Beat the eggs light
and add to the milk and water, also the melted butter. Add the dry ingredi-
ents gradually. Turn into well-greased gem pans and bake In a moderate
oven thirty-five minutes.
Frizzled Beef In Cream.
'4 cup condensed milk 1 tbs. flour
1 cup of water Dash cf paprika
1 tbs. butter H pound finely shaved beef
Cover the dried beef with boiling water. Draw to the cool part of the
stove and let stand £ix or seven minutes. Drain. Melt the butter and
stir in the flour. Reduce the milk with the water and
add slowly until a white sauce is formed. Season with
the paprika. Add the dried beef. Allow it to heat
through thoroughly and 6crve either alone or on slices
of buttered toast. If you wish, garnish the dish with,
a hard boiled egg sliced thin.
Tuna Cutlets.
Flake ona medium-sized can of tuna fish with a
silver fork. Add a cup and a half of mashed potato,
one-half teaspoonful of salt, and a little paprika. Beat
one egg thoroughly and add one tablespoonTul of milk
and half a tablespoonful of melted butter. Beat all
together thoroughly. Flatten and cut Into round cakes.
Beat another egg and set aside half of it. Add two
tablespoonfuls of cold water to the remaining portion.
Dip the cakes In this and roll In bread crumbs. Fry.
If preferred, the cakes may be rolled in a little flour Instead of the egg and
bread crumbs. This is more economical but not quite so nice.
American Chill Con Carnc.
Take two cups of cold chopped meat. This need not be all the same
kind. The remains of a roast and a steak may be combined. Place in a
pan with two tablespoonfuls of minccd onion, a teaspoonful ot salt, and a
tablespoonful of drippings. Barely cover with hot water and simmer un'.il
thoroughly tender. Add a teaspoonful of Chill powder. The water should
be nearly ail absorbed. Have ready three cups of hot, cooked rice. Mix the
meat with the rice and add the contents of one small can of tom?.to soup.
Cook fifteen minutes nntil thoroughly blended. Serve hot. A very sib-
atantlal dish which furnishes both meat and vegetable. If liked, the quan-
tity of Chili powder may be Increased.

The big objection we have to the
man who is always bragging about

bragging about ours.
A woman gets so everlastingly tired

It doesn't matter how homely a
