A chafng-dish relish served at an
impromptu luncheon was prepared with
can of peaches. The juice was
drained into the pan sugar, bit or
dried orange peel, and two tablespoons
of rum added. When this was very
hot, the peaches were put in and heat
ed through, the hot rum-sauce being
poured over them as they were served.
The theater hat is still occasionally
heard from. I'VE always attend the
theater in Germany" says German
woman in the city. with light hand
kerchief or pretty headdress that can
be easily removed. That is an Amerl-
cam we always say when we see a
woman who is wearing her hat in the
theater."
Lemon jelly is good filling for tart
shells or for puffs. An unusual for
mula for making it was given to his
mistress by a San Francisco Chinese
cook, who had learned his trade OF a
French chef He boiled to thick
jelly four beaten eggs, the rind and
juice of three lemons, one pound OF
sugar, and one-quarter of pound OF
butter. 1t was ready for use Wnen
taken from the range.

1T is possible" says physician, 'for
any woman to practice the rest cure
right in her own home. For example,
1 insist that my wife, who is a person
of nervous temperament and exhausts
her energy every day needlessly, shall
remain in her room at least until 9
o'clock every morning. At first she
found this genuine trial, and fancied
the household could not be started un-
less she was below stairs, but within a
week things went on as smoothly as
usual and now it would be upsetting if
she came down to breakfast. The chill
dren are all old enough to take their
breakfast and go to school without her
supervision, or, if they need any atten-
tion, it is an easy thing to run up TO
mammals room. After the children
are gone, the cook comes up to take the
orders for the morning, and it often
happens that if Mrs. - is not going
out she does not leave her room until
she comes down to luncheon. This IS
an experiment that I have insisted
upon since last September, with the re-
suit that she has gained over twenty
pounds in weight-pounds that only re-
store her to what should be her nor
NAL weight. Seven-eighths of the too
slender women of the world lost weight
by Over-activity, and they can be too
active right in their own homes, just
as much as if they over-exercised out
OF doors. The old notion of getting up
early was not made to fit this restless
and energetic age The new reading
should be lie abed as long as you can,
and when you do get up take things as
easily as possible" all of which good
counsel the thin, nervous, too active
woman should take to her heart and
ponder.
Tutti frutti pudding is made by put
ting one quart of cream in a double
boiler; add to the yolks of five eggs a
cup of sugar; beat until light; stir
these in the hot cream. Cook a mo-
ment, take from the fire. and when
cool add a teaspoonful of vanilla; turn
the mixture into the freezer and freeze;
when frozen stir in one pint of whipped
cream and one cup of cherries, chopped
fine, half the quantity of pineapple,
chopped fine, and three or four green
cages All the fruit must be soaked,
for an hour in orange juice.
1t is well to remember that going in
TO the country is not to be looked upon
as an excuse for all sorts of violations
of the rules of hygienic living Moth
ers are quite apt TO think that out-of-
town air possesses some peculiar virtue
which permits any sort of indiscretion
in the way of eating and exposure to
the weather. Even if some restriction
is praeticed in these directions the chill
dren are allowed to run and play all
day, often beyond their endurance. 1t
is the wise mother who will have a
reading or sleeping-hour for her fam
lily every afternoon, not forcing them
IN 10 the small, close rooms of the sum-
mer boarding-house but coaxing them
TO some grassy and shaded spot where
they can be stretched on the ground
and rest completely While listening to a
story, which will have done its work
especially well if it luls them to actual
slumber. The matter of too persistent
bathing has been many times alluded
TO. but it is one of the cautions that
admits of much repetition. Over-indul-
gence in fresh-water bathing is more
injurious than too much floundering in
the sea, and also, unfortunately, the
former is more apt to be prolonged TO
the danger length. Buffeting in the
waves of old ocean soon tires even the
strong. and the bather is ready to
leave the water. but splashing about ii
the placid depths of a lake or quiet
river is insidiously restful at the time
and. to boys particularly the limit of
Indulgence seems a much too quickly
drawn line. 1t is the opinion, however,
of many medical men who have written
and spoken on the subject that twenty
minutes twice day at proper intervals
between meals is the maximum of in
dulgence in this pleasure. In all small
camps regulated on hygienic principles
fifteen minutes with the swimming
