The jjsh of the possum is considered a delicacy in the southern states, where jt is baked and eaten with roasted preet potatoes. One of the peculiar tUngs about the possum is that when threatened with barm he pretends to te dead, The expression "playing possum" comes from thl3 trait of the jiimaL The illustration shows a pos-nn In a tree.

In addition to potatoes, cucumbers and tomatoes, the usual salad vegetables, let us remember how good are cold peas and especially haricot beans if served this way; then French beans, runner beans and especially those delicate white varieties of haricot beans with the yellow pod and white bean; young carrots boiled and left till cold, cold asparagus, sprigs of cauliflower and crisp celery all these may be served singly or in company with each other.

A very appetizing salad, excellent as a digestive, is of small capsicums, taken rather unripe. They should be split lengthwise and laid In cold water for some hours to reduce the pungency, then drained and torn into pieces. Shred some crisp lettuce leaves, chop a small onion and slice one or two tomatoes. Lay the lettuce within the bowl first, then the tomatoes, next the capsicums, and sprinkle the onion over. Finally pour over one of the above sauces or ordinary mayonnaise.

A vegetable salad where a mayonnaise sauce is used for the dressing should have this poured over on the minute before It is brought to table; otherwise it may separate and the vegetables get sodden. Any kind of garnishing that is suitable may be used-rings of hard boiled egg. nasturtium flowers or leaves and especially chopped nasturtium seeds, sprigs of fennel, parsley, etc. Dressings Minus OIL The success of vegetable salads depends entirely upon the sauce or dressing. The ordinary salad dressing of oil and vinegar, pepper and salt is not sufficient for a vegetable salad.

The cook who finds mayonnaise a difficulty will be helped by following an old recipe for salad dressing the foundation of which is two boiled potatoes, passed through a kitchen sieve, and also the addition of the pounded yolks of two bard boiled eggs. If these Ingredients are mixed gradually and slowly with two, three or four spoonfuls of oil, one or two of vinegar and made mustard, salt and pepper at discretion the result cannot fail to be a smooth, rich, creamy sauce tmt will offend no one, as badly made mayonnaise must always do. Another sauce for a salad dressing which will appeal to those who cannot take oil is the following: A yolk of egg fofrpn raw and beaten with a teaspoon-ful of mustard, a saltspoonful of salt, one-half of a saltspoonful of pepper and a "whole teaspoonful of white sugar. "Mi- in gradually sufficient thick cream to make enough dressing, and, lastly, work in a tablespoonful of vinegar drop by drop. For Tough 8teaks.

If your steak seems tough lay it on a chopping board and beat it well with a rolling pin. This will break up the fibers and do away with the toughness. Another way of softening it is to soak It In vinegar for a few minutes. The vinegar flavors it deliriously as well as making it tender. It is a good plan to keep steak for a few days before cooking it, but you must remember that it is no use trying to do so after it has been cut into pieces, or the Juice will trickle out and escape.

If it is not whole you had better cook it at once and risk the toughness. Chuck steak is good and reasonable In price. Undercut and fillet are more expensive and delicate. Peppers For Winter. Sweet peppers may be kept for winter's use in several ways.

One is to salt them away. Wash and wipe whole sweet peppers and tie tight in a cheesecloth bag; place In a stone Jar and fill It up with cold water, salted, allowing four tablespoonfuls of salt to each quart of water. When needed freshen by soaking in fresh soft warm water. Keep them in a cold place. Another scheme la to dry them.

Wash and dry the peppers thoroughly. String them on heavy thread or tie and knot each stem with twine (not close enough to touch) and hang the strings in a dry place until the moisture has evaporated. Later. If preferred, they can be tied In bags and bung op. Fresh Tomatoes For Winter.

Gather smooth, ripe tomatoes in the fan. Select those without broken skins, wipe them off clean and put them in stone Jars; melt lard, let it cool and pour it over them, covering them wen; set Jar In cellar. When taking them out for use save the lard, melt and pour back over tho remaining ones. In this way you have fresh tomatoes aU winter. English Jam.
