My father also says that love and liquor make a man see things that nren't there. My father says he's Itnown men who saw pink elephant!, sitting on the mantelpiece making faces at them, and men who, when they were In love, couldn't tell the difference between a red-hended freckl facd, cross-eyed, living skoloton sort of a woman and Lillian Russell. My father says that when a man's drunk he always wants to confide in you, and that he takes you by the buttonhole and holds you until he tells you the story of Ills life, and that when he's In love he does Just the same way, only he tells you how won derful and beautiful, and vrliat an an gel the qoung lady is that he is in love with. And my father Bays that when you see a man coming whome you know, who Is either in liquor or in love, the only safe thing is to run the other way as bard as you can. And my father says that after a mnn has been drunk he wakes up the next day with an awful bead and a dark brown taste in his mouth, and he wonders why he did it, and my faiher says that after a man gets married ho hns about the same sort cl a katzenjammer. Ladies do not get drunk, and when they fall in love they Just cry on ev erybody's nock when they tell that they are engaged, and they spend their time writing letters to the gen tleman they are engaged to and when tbe man leaves a cigar stub on the ash tray they tie a blue ribbon around It and hang it on the wall.

It must be awful nice to have some body la love with you if you are a young lady, becaue he sends you candy ??ma takes you to the movies, and don't never dispute what you say like a husband does. My mother says love is. the greatest thing In the world; hut ."d rather have an automobile. That's all at present about love. ? ? * COOKING RECIPES, Boiled Salmon. Housewives sometimes wonder how It is possible to ship salmon from Its home in Columbia river half way or poslbly all the way across the con tinent and have It reach the table ap parently so freBh. Refrigerator cars. It Is well known, are used in trans porting It, but it may not be general ly known that in transit to the At lantic coast it is packed and repacked in fresh cracked Ice three times, which accounts for its arriving at Its desti-! nation in perfect condition. It is said ; that the salmon is the cleanest of fish, never staying in a polluted stream. I? Ihc stream becomes unclean, it leaves at once. As this iisli is more solid and dry then many it is better for steaks and xoi boiling than for baking and chow ders. For boiling salmon, sew it in a white mosquito Siting bag and boil a quarter of an hour to the pound in salted water. Unwrap with care and place on a hot platter. Prepare a cup ful of drawn butter with lemon juice and chopped parsley and pour over.
