0000 OCOO OOO OOOOCOOOOOOOOO Those articles on the necessarily absorbing topic of food are carefully prepared and based on knowledge of chemistry as applied to cooking and piact.eal information derived from actual experience FIRST VOLUME. Conducted by Lida Arnes "Willis, Building, Chicago, to whom "Sll inquiries should be addressed. All rights reserved by Banning over slices of bread cut very thin and trimmed free from crust. Then roll the 'slices tightly "smd place one roll against another, on a damp towel or napkin and fold up and fasten securely so that the sandwiches -will retain their shape until served. Club Caviar Sandwich.

These are made by cutting white bread in very thin slices, spreading one-third of them tb'ckly with caviar butter, another third with cream mayonnaise thickly covered with minced ham and olives and covered with shredded crisp lettuce. The remaining slices of bread are buttered and placed on top of the lettuce. Serve the sandwiches neatly folded in paraffin paper with garnish of Jemtee, gherkins and little radishes or lettuce, olives and hard-boiled eggs. FOR EVERY DAY IN THE WEEK. CAVIAR.

A Most Savory Preliminary of a Feast. Ameiicans are rapidly cultivating a tor this delicacy which is certainly very tasty when spread on top of fresh buttered toast or thin but- teied bread. In this form it is served at the beginning ot a feast to provoke appetite and thirst, for enjoyment ot the'foods to follow. The word caviar has a luxurious if not suggestive sound to the ordinary people who consider it one of the many elties invented to gratify the lancy and desire the wealthy for change. The name is of Turkish origin.

The delicacy which masquerades under so fine an appellation is produced from the roe of the sturgeon. Taken from the freshly caught hsh these are packed in three forms. The first are packed as they leave the fish without any addition, the second method is known as the half-salted or mild, and the third form is the highly salted. The best product is known as the caviar of Astrachan. The tiesh Russian" caviar ol best grade is described as of grayish color--succulent and delicate.

Another distinguishing feature being the well defined shape of each separate egg. Caviar should not be kept long ex posed to the air after the bottle has been opened. The best way to pur chase it is in little vessels made lime wood, as the caviar is very ap' to lake up foreign flavors and the lime wood is devoid flavor. The caviar may be packed in very small jars or bottles, in such quantities as will sufficient for one making of fish dress ing or sauce or a dozen sandwiches and these jars well covered with par affin or well corked and tied up with parchment paper. This country is not far behind the older markets of Europe in supiBying this edible.

The New Jersey sturgeon is a large producer. North Carolina and other coast states send forth the salted and dried roe. We are told tha the caviar found in this country is bu the shadow of the substance, comparec to the Russian caviar which is usu ally eaten fresh. This is would indi cate that the reason American eavia is not equal to that eaten abroad because of its age. Therefore, the double sea voyage deemed necessarj for the American product--the finish ing up abroad and the foreign label which seems necessary for the transposition of the American sturgeon roe into caviar cannot improve the quality except in the minds of those run after strange gods.

Value of Caviar as Food. The composition of caviar is approx- imately tho same as that of all fish roe, the j)ioteids contain a good deal of nuclein and it has been recently ascertained that this substance is an important source of uric acid, which fact makes it apparent that persons subject to gout should indulge in such foods as produce this property. Raw salted caviar is wholesome, so far as its digestibility is concerned; three ounces being digested in about two hours. Caviar Tartines. Butter some fresh toasted slices of read cut into small rounds or diamonds and spread with the caviar; with minced pickles, pickled ed peppers and parsley.

Caviar Salad. Take one-third caviar, one-third al- nonds. blanched and chopped very ine. and two-thirds bread crumbs: mince the whole together with a little 'live oil until yu have a smooth, fine paste. Serve this small red ripe tomatoes peeled and hollowed out, in ndividual moulds of tomato jelly, using crisp lettuce and olives for garnish.

Pancakes With Caviar. Bake some thin French pan- akes and spread them with a thin layer of caviar; roll them and cut them in lices: heat before serving and sprinkle with little sweet, red pepper. Caviar Canape. Scald two or three sweet, red pep- ers, skin them and mash to a pulp. 2ut pieces of toast into cubes, spread with the pepper pulp, then cover this with a layer caviar.

Place a dish and garnish with chopped eggs, chives and parsley and serve. It makes a very good luncheon or supper dish. Caviar Sticks. Take small sized bread sticks, split them lengthwise and spread with caviar. Very apprpriate to serve at luncheon with plain lettuce salad.

Caviar on Toast. Cut sis rounds from slices of white bread and toast nicely. Put two large tablespoonfuls of caMar in a saucepan with a tablespoonful of cream and stir carefully until hot, but do not allow it to cook. Pour the mixture over the toast and serve on a lace paper doily with garnish of cress and little red radishes, olives or pickles. Caviar With Egg.

Cut slices about one-third of an inch thick from a stale French loaf: trim off the crust, spread them with anchovy, butter and saute them very lightly in a little plain butter. Spread eaek slice with a thin layer of caviar, then squeeze a little lemon juice over them and dust lightly with paprica and salt. Lightly poach some eggs, one for each slice of toast, trim neatly and place on top of the toast and serve. Caviar Butter. Beat two ounces of fresh butter to a cream and then work in three tablespoonfuls of caviar paste, juice of quarter of lemon and paprica to taste.

AN ABSOLUTE NECESSITY So Thinks at Least'One Traveling Man I would as soon think of starting out without.my mifeage book and grip as to start out on a trip without a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in my valise, said a traveling man who represents a St. Louis hardware house.

Why? Because I to put up at all kinds of hotels and boarding houses. I have to eat good, bad and indifferent food at all hours of the day and night and I don't believe any man's stomach will stand that-son of thing without protest, anyway I know mine won't. It has to have something to break the fall and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the crutch I fall back on. My friends often josh" me about it, i tell me I'm an easj mark for patent medicine fakers, that advertised medicines are humbugs, but I notice they are nearly always complaining of their aches and -pains and poor digestion, while I can stand most any old kind of fare and feel good and ready for my work when it needs me, and I believe I owe my digestion and sound health to the daily, regular use of Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets, year in and year out. and all the "joshing" in the world will never convince" me to the contrary.

I used to have heaitburn about three times a day and a headache about three or four times a week and after standing this for four or years I began to look around for a cratch and found it when my doctor told me the best investment I could make would be a fifty cent box of Stuart's Dyspepsia. Tablets, and I have invested about fifty cents a month for them ever and when I stop to think that that is what I spend every day for cigars. I feel like shaking hands with myself for I can keep my stomacli and digestion in first class cider for fifty cents a month. I don't care for any better life insurance. My druggist tells me they are the most popular of all stomach medicines and that they have maintained their popularity and success because they do as advertised.

They bring results, and results are what count in a patent medicine as much as Jn selling barb wire. and around so that it may be thoroughly kneaded.
