THE WAY TO CURVE
Some Suggestions Which Will Make
Mine Host’s Task Easy.
Fevr Men Carve Well, Although They
Mn> Acquire Shill in That Uirec
tion hj Observing; (lie Hints
Given llflon.
Few men in this generation carve
well; in fact, carving seems to be al
most one of the
lost arts. Much
poor carving, how
ever, is due to a
lack of trussing or
proper preparation
of the meat for
the oven previous
to it being
u must ue rcmemoerea that
all meats and poultry retain the shape,
after cooking, in which they were
placed before. You cannot fold nor
shape a piece of cooked meat; but if
that same piece is folded and fastened
down previous to being cooked, it will
remain in that shape after cooking,
even if the trussing or fastening is
pulled out.
Where the bones are removed from a
rib roast before cooking, that it may
be rolled, the carving is very simply
done. Hold the knife flat, and with a
quick sawing cut clear across, remov
ing slices from A to B.
The first joints of a sucking pig are
usually removed from the legs before
it is cooked. The pig should be care
fully roasted first on one side and then
on the other; and. when cooked, placed
✓- -N.
on a platter standing on its knuckle
bones. In a deep bed of cress. When
carving first remove the head, A to B,
then the ham, C to D, and next the
shoulder, E to F, on the side away from
the carver. Tilt the pig slightly, and
remove the ham and shoulder next to
you; make a cut the entire length of
the belly, G to H. exposing the stuffing,
and then cut thin slices of meat from
I to J. Then carve the head, the ears
first; then sever the lower jaw. carv
ing little bits or slices from the bone.
Then cut the hams into thin slices,
then the shoulder, carving precisely
the same as you would a leg or shoul
der of mutton. In serving give each
person a piece of lean meat from the
body, with a little stuffing. As many
people prefer a portion of the ear.
tongue, and lower jaw, it would be
well to ask their preference.
A fillet of beef is cut into slices half
an inch thick, from one end to the oth
er; the thickness being greater in some
places than in others gives the carver
an opportunity to offer well done and
rare meat from the same piere.
For a sirloin roast, first cut close to
the bone the tenderloin, A to B; next
I Clilt) V t* l*IiU v 10
D; then remove
the sirloin, going
close to the bone,
cutting from E to
F. Slice the meat
across the grain.
Persons who like
fat should have a
thin slice from the
(end of the piece, which will be sweet
ami juicy.
(The best piece of beef for roasting or
baking are from the standing ribs, sir
loin, and pinbone; the latter, however,
can only be bought in certain places.
S The standing ribs, six in number, conte
from the forequarter, and the sirloin
^ and pinbone from the hindquarter. A
■I small family had much better purchase
f ribs from the small end. and the larger
family take the “middle cut,” or the
large ribs. As meat is always sweeter
when cooked with the bones in, remove
only the long top bone; chop off a par
tion of the lower
bone, and place the
meat, bone side
down, in the roast
ing pan. It re
quires no fasten
ing of any sort.
When done, dish
with the bone side
iowa.ru inv igmir. so mat he may draw
the knife tjr ard hint in cutting. First
cut oft theend front A to B; then run
| the knife down at C close to the ribs,
loosening the meat from the end and
around the ribs to B. Next cut off the
outside slice, D to E. and put it on the
side of the dish, and then slice toward
you.

ADMIRAL SCHLEY
ENDORSES PE-RU-NA.
Pe^ruma Drug Co., Columbus, Ohio:
Gentlemen:===“ ! can cheerfully say that Airs. Schley has taken Pe=
ru-na and / believe with good effect. W. S. SCHLEY^washington, d. c.
ADMIRAL SCIILEY, one of the foremost, notable heroes of the
Nineteenth Century. A name that starts terror in the heart
of every Spaniard. A man of steady nerve, clear head, un
daunted courage and prompt decision.
Approached by a friend recently, his opinion was asked as to the
efficacy of Peruna, the national catarrh remedy. Without the
slightest hesitation he gave this remedy his endorsement. It appeared
on later conversation that Peruna has been used in his family, where
it is a favorite remedy.
Such endorsements serve to indicate the wonderful hold that
Peruna has upon the minds of the American people. It is out of
the question that so great and famous a man as Admiral Schley
could have any other reason for giving his endorsement to Peruna
than his positive conviction that the remedy is all that he says
it is.
The fact is Peruna has overcome all opposition and has won its
way to the hearts of the people. The natural timidity which so
many people have felt about giving endorsements to any remedy is
giving way. Gratitude and a desire to help others has inspired
thousands of people to give public testimonials for Peruna who
heretofore would not have consented to such publicity.
Never before in the annals of medicine has it happened that so
many men of national and international reputation have been willing
to give unqualified and public endorsements to a proprietary remedy.
No amount of advertising could have accomplished such a result.
Peruna has won on its own merits. Peruna cures catarrh of whatever
phase or location in the human body. This is why it receives so
many notable and unique endorsements.

Emperor William of Germany 19
covering himself with glory on the
field of war. He is as irresistible in
sham battles as the boy in the nursery
playing with tin soldiers, says the
Toronto Star. It is easy enough to
feel like Charlemagne when leading
troops to victory in a sham fight, and
it is not hard to outdo the strategy of
Frederick the Great when the oppos
ing force is doing its level best to as
sist rather than defeat the conqueror.
There is much to be said for the kai
ser's method of proving himself a
great warrior. Perhaps the nations
may be induced to take it up. If
France and Germany should go to
war they might fight with blank car
tridges. having a British or Russian
general as referee. He could score
points and order the defeated side to
retire. Soonor or later one army
would get the other where, according
to strategy, it would ne “done for,”
and thereupon the war would be over
—without bloodshed and yet affording
glory for the brave and contracts for
army contractors. An advantage of
this plan would be that kaisers and
kings could lead their armies without
danger to their sacred persons.
The emperor wants his men to know
that he is no carpet knight. He slept
in his tent with his mantle for av pil
low. saying that he would share the
hardships of his soldiers. In the
morning he was shaved in the open
air seated on an upturned keg. Just
what kind of "hardship" had been in
the keg the cable neglects to tell us.
His physicians trembled for the health
of the emperor enduring the hardships
of war! And yet, they, too, were en
tering into the spirit of the play, for
hardships were probably as unreal as
the battles, as blank as the cartridges,
and as empty as the victories and the
1 keg.

The experiences of the auto explorer

For miles the route was through great

Rttllrodfl Conductor’* Advice.
A conductor in Kansas has prepared
j the following advice for his passengers:
j “Have no money transactions with
j strangers. Give your trunk checks to a
; baggageman, and nobody else. You
I haven't lost any freight bills. A gold
j brick isn’t worth bringing home. Don't
get off the cars while they are in motion.
When a suspicious-looking man asks
you if you have lost your pocketbook
tell him you never carry one. Don’t feel
for it while he is looking. Have your
ticket ready when the conductor comes
| along.”
Strong; Coolie*.
The power of endurance of the
Chinese coolie is marvellous. Many
will travel over forty miles, carrying a
heavy load on their backs, and think
nothing of it. A writer mentions the
case of certain coolies who, after
going twenty-seven hours without food
and having carried a heavy burden in
the meantime, still had strength
enough left to offer to carry a man fif
teen miles farther.

A middle-aged man and his wife decided to
take a trip to Washington, and as it w as the
hi ginning of the season, they botii invested
in some new clothes lor the journey. Their
grown-up children made fun of their “new”
appearance, but it was not until they were
nately settled in their seats and opened their
bags that they discovered the joke that had
been played upon them, relates the New
York J unes.
One of their offspring had filled both
satchels with rice, and, on taking out what
they needed, the tjny grains were scattered
broadcast.
Of course there was at once an amused
emile on every one's face, and the mother
felt herself getting redder than she had ever
been in her life before, and was made no
more comfortable when a fat Herman woman
opposite leaned over and said quite audibly: j
“Aeh—never mind. I’m a vidder voman i
now, but tins time next week ill be iu the
