BY MARION HARLAN!)
Main tin romarci
“1 have spilled chicken soup upon a
dark blue foulard dress. I should be
greatly obliged If you would give me
something to remove the stain.
“MISS T. W.”
First sponge with pure chloroform to
get rid of the grease. I fancy that the
cream and grease of the soup make up
most of the stain. These extracted,
sponge with alcohol and wipe dry. Or you
may cover the spot with French chalk,
rubbed In well; leave it on for 24 hours
and brush it off. It should extract the
grease. Then sponge with pure ether or
chloroform.
Preparing Mint Sauce
“Tell me now to prepare mint sauce
Also, what other way is there to pre
pare livers, calf or beef beside frying'.'
Can they be baked or broiled or other
wise prepared? What is scrapple com
posed of? Pardon me, do I ask too much?
Did you procure the recipe for southern
hash? Here It is: Ground beef, potatoes
diced, onions minced, three sweet pep
pers minced, pulp of three chili peppers
scraped after softening in hot water, suit,
pepper and a little sage to season. Hake
in a hot oven MRS. G. It.”
Your letter is a miscellany in itself.
Chop a handful of mint sprays fine; have
ready half a cup of vinegar in which
has been dissolved two tablespoon* of
white sugar and a (lasli of paprika. Stir
the mint Into this and serve before It
Wilts. Liver may be larded and baked or
broiled and minced tine, seasoned and
served In pastry shells after moistening
it with gravy. There are yet other ways
of cooking it to he had from reading good,
up-to-date cook books. Scrapple 1h made
of pig’s head, l >o lied, seasoned and
minced, then cooked in the liquor in which
the head was boiled and thickened with
cornmeal. No, I had not the recipe until
you favored us with it. Thank you.
Putting Up Olivet*
As I had anticipated and foretold to
divers inquirers into the method of put
ting up olives, we are in receipt of more
recipes for the process than we can pub
lish. J have therefore weeded from the
collection three formulas, written in
faint pencil, and I purpose to print the
rest as I can make room, no two being
exactly alike.
"Mrs. A. H. A.'s Inquiry for a recipe
for putting up olives leads - me to tell
how heretofore wo used the lye process,
hut now have discovered a process used
in foreign countries which is consid
ered superior and of much less trouble.
Let olives stand io days in clear water,
changing every other day. Then make a
brine of boiled water and rock salt, strong
enough to hold up an egg. Pour over the
olives and place a weight to keep them
under in this brine for 30 days or
longer. You will find them cured per
fectly. To keep them, place In a brine
of the same weight. Just before using
freshen them, for they will he salty.
When putting in the second brine a pleas
ing change is acquired by the addition
of a clove of garlic, a large bay leaf,
and. if liked, a pimento to about a gallon
of the olives. VIRGINIA S.“
We have on hand several queries dated
Inst summer as to the mode of treating
green plums to make them into “mock
olives.” Would It be practicable, in your
opinion, to do this by subjecting the
plums to the process you describe for
green olives? We should like to know
this before warm weather is upon us.
Prince of Wales Cake
“As my introduction into your valuable
Corner T will give you a recipe for Prince
of Wales cake: One cup of sugar, one
half cup lard, one teaspoon of salt, two
eggs, one cup sour milk, two tablespoons
molasses, one teaspoon cinnamon, one
teaspoon cloves, two oups of flour, one
teaspoon soda, one cup raisins. Mix in
gredients and bake in a moderate oven.
Will you kindly ask for the poem ‘The
Face on the Barroom Floor,’ for me?
"KATE.”
His royal highness has abundant room
for selection among the cakes that bear
his name. Yours has features that are
new to me. Your request for the poem
will be honored In due time. What
has started the demand for It? We have
four inquiries with regard to It on hand.
Epidemics do not spring into action with
out a cause.
Keeping Ivory White
"Would you kindly tell me how to
keep a Parisian ivory handle white and
clean? I have tried alcohol, hut And It
destroys the luster. G. F.”
First, keep it dry. Never wash it in hot
water. Wipe it free of dust with a cloth
Just dampened with peroxide of hydrogen
and Instantly rub it dry with chamois
skin. Do this as seldom as is consistent
with keeping the Ivory clean. I have
ivory ornaments 30 years old that remain
white and glossy. Readers are Invited to
send stories of other methods.
Wants Copy of a Song
"Will you please get me a copy of the
song ‘The Rose of Sharon?’ I am a reader
of your page and like it very much.

Literary Correspondence Course
"Is there anyone who possesses a lit
erary correspondence course who no long
er cares for It? I have a keen desire to
write and have written stories, but I
feel I am not well enough Informed on
construction of manuscripts to ask for
my stories to he published. If anyone
can supply me with a course I will he
greatly pleased and gladly pay postage
when I receive the same.
“MRS. A. D. H.”
Unless you refer to such a course of
reading as is laid down by the Chautauqua
school, I urn at a loss to comprehend
Just what you would like to get. ‘‘The
construction of manuscript” is not a
thing to be taught by correspondence, al
though there are certain rules respecting
the forpi in which they should be sent
to editor or publisher that are easily
learned. The merest tyro In such mat*
vers Knows mat one snouio write upor
one side of the sheet; that all writing
should bo In ink and preferably type
written; that the manuscript should bi
flat and never rolled, and the pngcs num
liered properly. ParAgrapning in accord
ance with the subject is understood bs
every school girl who has written com
position. For the rest, the rule is ah so
lute. If you have anything to say to th<
world say It in the best English yoi
can command, but In your own way
>Said a great English writer; "Lay hold
if but by a little linger, upon the altar oi
the human heart and the sweep of age>
will not tear you away." Write from th«
heart, and to the heart, and you wil
have a hearing.
Wants To Bo a Writer
"I want to be a writer. I know If I har
the schooling and training 1 would be
come a world known one. I noted some
time ago you caused the adoption of twc
children, and I want you to do a similai
thing for me. 1 am tired of trying to gei
an education that seems farther hwhj
than ever. I am also very lonely. It
return for the training I should receive
I am willing to give some service in re
turn. Anything, from .hist merely being

“FLORENCE D."
Read what 1 have said to another gir
who would become, an author. If It were
possible for you to enter the service o1
an author or editor who would interest
herself in you and give you a certain
amount of practice In the technical parts
<*l her profession or engage you as sec
retary. your end might he gained. What
you want is practice, coupled with en
vironment. It is not unlikely that such
a person- reading your letter may write
to me for your address and advise you,
If she cannot render more direct assist

EfFKLV REVIEW OF
I
Factors Helping to Sustain
Prices Earlier Wane in In
fluence This Week
New York. March 29. Factors which
helped to sustain prices of stocks earlier
In the month waned In Influence this
week. London's early hopefulness for
nil Irish settlement gave way to an anx
iety over signs of an Inflammatory a tat*
of feeling. The New vlaven agreement
with the government relieved fears of
a deadlock, but gave no positive benefit
to the market. Announcement of fur
ther hearings of the eastern railroads’
petition for a 5 per cent advance In
freight rates cancelled the effect of last
week's rumors of early favorable ac
tion.
There were some heavy declines In
February net earnings of railroads In
spile of reductions in outlay, and the
decrease in total of idle freight cars. The
out In the dividends of Pittsburgh, Cln
einnatl, Chicago and Ht. Louis common
and preferred and suspension of Norfolk
and Southern’s payments gave a concrete
object lesson of the difficulties confront
ing the railroads.
The necessity for railroad economies ex
plained the cheerless feeling in the steel
trade. Gloomy predictions were heard
"I an April 1 curtailment of output and
a break In prices. Offiers and specifica
tions were reported to he coming in at
the rate of only about half the current
shipments from the mills. There was
said to he buying of copper, hut textile
mills were looking forward to to reduce
productions.
Acute weakness in special stocks grew
out of trust prosecutions and financi il
needs. Additional note issues by rail
roads, rather than bond Issues, were dis
cussed In spite of the easy money condi
tions.
Varying Influences on the check to busi
ness were ascribed to the intended trust
legislation, the federal bank reserve or
ganization an dthe Mexican problems.
