There is no Oother food which depends more upon this than fish. First of all fish should be cookâ€" ed only a sort time. Overâ€"cooking deâ€" stroys both texture and flavour. This applies to shellifish as well as to larger salt or fresh water fish. Source ef Fish The largest nart of â€"«the fish supply Source of Fisn The largest part of »the fish supply naturally comes from the two oceans and the Gulf of Mexico upon which our coastline borders. The great lakes are the next largest source. These are supplemented by rivers, smaller lakes, and streams whose product are ued locally. Almost every source furnishes many varietie, some of which are famâ€" cus, such as shad and bluefish from the Atlantic, turbot and sand dabs from the Pacific, pompano from the CGulf, white €ish from the Great Lakes, salmon from the Columbia river, trout and hbass from lake or streams. Among these and many others â€" we have our preferences but all are delâ€" icious when fresh and well cooked. To supplement fresh fish we have gried and cured fish which keep in good conâ€" dition indefinitely and which can be purchased everywhere. Canned fish is also used to a great extent for salads sandwich fillings, and many prepared gdishes. Selection and Care of Fish In selecting whole fish whether freshâ€" ly caught or frozen, the same points should be noted. The flesh should be firm to the touch anrd the gills and eves. bright. The odor should not be strong . At the market, the fish is cleaned'andi the scales and fins removed. It may be boned, at least to the extent of having the large backbone removed. Large fush such as haddock and halibut sometimes cut into steaks for broiling or baking. Smaller strips of baoned and skinned fish are known as fillets. The quicâ€"frozen fish fillets which come in panpner cartons are ready for cooking. Be sure, however, that they are frozen solid when you select them and when they arrive from the market. _ They should be used the day they are purâ€" chased and unless cooked at once, should be stored in the refrigerator unâ€" til just before they are to be cooked, during which time they will begin to thaw. All fish should be stored n tightly covered containers in the reâ€" frigerator until time for cooking.

Whether she was really a witch, with occult powers, or merely a clever guessâ€" er, it must be admitted that her famous paoem, foretelling strange marvels which have since come to pass, puts her in a class by herself. The hcorseless cartiâ€" uge and the resultant accidefAts which would "fAill the world with woe"; the thought that around the mwaorld would fly ‘"in the twinkling of an sye"; the iron that "in the water shall float as easily as a wooden brat"; the men who "under water shall walk, shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk"; the women who "shal get a strange, odd craze to dress like men, and breeches wear, and cut off their beautiful locks of hair‘"; the men who ‘in air shall be seen in white‘ in black, in green‘; these must have seemed most unlikely wonders to Mothâ€" er Shipton‘s contemporaries, however commonplace they are today. Mother Shipton‘s Words Appear Significant Now Especially interesting is the passage which deals with the fate of France: "Gold may be found and shown In a land thrt‘s now unknown. Fire and water shall wonder do And England shall, aamit a Jew. Three times three shall lovely France Be led to dance a bloody dance Refore her people shall be free; Three tyrant rulers she shall see, Three times the people rule alone, Three times the people‘s hope is gone. Three rulers in succession see, FEach springing from a different dynasty And when the last great fight is won, England and France shall be as one." This remarkable woman is supposed to have been born in Shropshire, Engâ€" land, in July, 1488. She was baptized as Ursula Southiel, and married Tony ‘Shipton, a builder. Some accounts sugâ€" gest, less kindly, that she was the child of a certain Agatha Shipton and the devil. ‘The following is from The Cobden Sun, of June 20th:â€" "A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized Tuesday, June 18th, at St. Andrew‘s Presbyterian Church manse here, at 3 pm., when Laura MacLarâ€" en, Angus, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
