At THE ECONOMICAL HOUSE.

I'VE have to be awful economical
down at u house." said the boy,
there's such a big family"
"Yes?" in%quiringly.
That's SO, for fair! My biggest
brother Is a bartender, and of course
has to wear a white coat; SO ma buys
a whole suit for him, says wearing
the overalls saves his pants. When
they've been washed a few times, Of
course they don't look nice enough for
a bartender, so ma gets him new ones
and hands over the others to Bill. Bill
works In a meat market"
Gets two wears out Of them that
way, eh?"
Then DADS q painter; when the
white suit gets too dirty for Bill. dad
wears 1t as long as he a to paint
1t. Course, in time they get pretty
well caked up with paint; then ma
uses 'em for kindling the fire, and be-
ing soaked with paint they burn fine"
80 that's the end of them? Well,
you certainly do"
"No! Ma uses them again along
with the wood ashes to make soft SOAP
of"
You don't say!"
Yep! After that she pours the soap
suds on the back garden. Best thing
In the world, she says, to make things
grow."-Puck.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD BEST.
Especially for Growing Children 10 u
the Best Of Food.

For growing children. especially, the
whole or entire wheat bread Is most
useful In keeping the processes of d.
gestion In order. It Is the gluten which
lies next the bran, that contains nj.
trates that feed muscular tissues and
the mineral products that nourish the
nervous system.
To make the bread the easiest way,
scald n cupful milk. add a teaspoon.
ful each butter and salt, a tablespoon
ful sugar, and a cup water. When
lukewarm, add a half compressed
yeast cake dissolved In a little luke
warm water, and enough whole wheat
Hour to make a thin batter. Do this
In the morning. Beat the batter until
smooth and let It rise until very light.
Add whole wheat -four little by little,
beating all the time. until as much has
been added as you can beat or stir
II should be too soft to knead. II
the -four is not beaten in gradually and
thoroughly the bread will be coarse
grained. Turn into creased tins, let
rise again until light, then bake In a
moderate oven for at least an hour.

THE no e.

II there is a damp cupboard In the
house a box filled with lime should be
placed in 1t; this will make 1t perfectly
dry.
When using valuable vases for table
decoration fill with sand. This makes
them stand firmly and they are far
less liable to be knocked over and
broken.
IL the sink gets greasy a little par
ATTN well rubbed In will make 1t beau
tifully clean. Zinc pals and tins, II
cleaned with paraffin, will look as
good as new.
Some housekeepers when preparing
a owl to roast rub 1t inside and out
with sugar, stun 1t as usual and when
done the meat Is said to be much
sweeter and ~juicler than IL prepared
In the old way.
When eggs are high priced an ex.
cellent substitute for them in pumpkin
pies Is to add soda crackers. rolled
fine. allowing two for each pie. They
may be used instead Of eggs, even
when eggs are plenty and cheap.
1t is said that cut flowers will keep
fresh II a small pinch Of nitrate of
potash or common saltpeter is put in
the water in which they stand. The
ends Of the stems should be cut of
a little every day to keep open the
absorbing pores.

they are small" However, because
large hats are being worn, do not go
to extremes and get the largest one
you a find. Unless you can have
many hats, be moderate In your choice
Of sizes and colors.
Purple, In all it's regal splendor, has
been overdone in the large cities, and
its life will be a short one. 1t seems
the most difficult thing In the world
to make a color fashionable and not
common. Women jumped at purple,
bought 1t in gowns, hats. stockings,
boas and every imaginable garment
so much so that the more exclusive
set are avoiding it.
This latter class have turned their
favor toward peacock blues, soft
browns, tea greens, all of which are
coiors that will stand the test of a
second seasons wear.
All hats must tilt down. Most.of the
shapes are modified forms of the
mushroom, falling rather low in the
back and are worn well off the face.
No bandeaus are worn in most of the
large hats, but II any is used, It must
be even all around the crown and not
Eel a half inch in width.
This gives just enough place to put
your hatpins through: but many OF
the handsomest hats are made abso.
lutely without bandeau, setting close
on the head. Nothing is raised at all.

appearance being caused by the de.
pland for the peculiar tinge of blue.
green which is found on the plumage
of this bird. They are not cheap, but
are exceedingly smart on a hat that
blends those shades.
Another new idea 10 the square
bows Of velvet ribbon such as are pic.
tured. This effect Is made by wiring
the ribbon two ways across the ribbon
and directly through the middle. 1t is
a very up-to-date trimming and helps
to fill in around the crown of the
shapes, !
Embroidered bands of hand work
are being used around the erowns of
velvet hats to give them a bit of life.
These hats are to be purchased in
shops where Japanese trimmings are
and sell from s1.75 up. To
an otherwise duh hat they give a dash
and style that is inimitable. Some
times a buckle is made Of heavy buck
and covered with this gay EN-.
~broidery instead of running the band
the crown.

IN obstruction in the throat, trachea
or o~esophagus may sometimes be re.
moved by striking the patient forcibly
on the back between the shoulders.
Sometimes it is expedient to invert
him while doing so. A child can be
held up by the legs. but an adult
should be placed across a bed or chair
with his head and chest hanging well
over the edge. If the object is in the
oesophagus it can be often washed
down with a drink of water or forced
down by eating bread or other solid
substance. To prevent excoriation of
the alimentary canal after the swal
lowing of any sharp substance have
the patient eat plentifully of bread, DO.
tatoes or mush, but do not give a
~purgative.

APPETIZING DISHES
NEW AND TESTED RECIPES FOR
THE COOK.
Swiss Eggs Are Something Of a Novel
ty and viii Be Found Delicious
Maple Blanc Mango and
Banana Desserts.

For Swiss eggs-a delicious supper
~dish-spread the bottom of a bakint
dish with two ounce of butter. Cover
this with thin slices of American
cheese. Place four eggs over the
cheese, taking car that the yolks are
not broken. Season with pepper and
salt; pour around the eggs two table
spoonfuls of rich cream and cover the
top with grated cheese, Bake 1t for ten
minutes, garnish with parsley and
serve with fingers of dried toast.
An unusually appetizing curry OF
veal is made as follows: Cut two
pounds of veal into small pieces. Roll
the pieces in -four and season with
pepper and salt. Put a couple of table
spoonfuls of butter in an iron stewing
pan. Slice a large onion and fry 1t
in the butter, and when IL turns a light
brown add the veal and a quart a Of
tomatoes. Stir well and place the dish
where it will cook slowly for an hour:
then add a tablespoonful of curry pow.
der mixed to a smooth paste with a
little water. Simmer half an hour long
er and serve on a platter with a Dor
der of boiled rice. Lamb may be pre-.
pared in the same way.
A maple blanc mango is a novelty.
To make 1t boil a quart of milk. Meas.
ure out four heaping tablespoonfuls of
cornstarch and moisten 1t with a lit
tie cold milk. Add to II a liberal cup
of thick maple syrup, then gradually
stir 1t into the boiling hot milk and
beat thoroughly to prevent Jumping.
Cook until very thick, then put aside
to cool. Serve with whipped cream.
For a banana dessert of the same
boiler. Mix four tablespoonful of
c%ornstarch with two large tablespoon.
fuls of sugar. Thin it with a little cold
milk; then stir it gradually into the re-
mainder of the milk, taking care that
1t does not form Jumps. Cook for ten
minutes; break two eggs and beat the
whites and yolks separately. Add the
yolks TO the pudding and cook a few
minutes longer. Then remove from the
fire and add six bananas that have
been cut into thin slices and sprinkled
with sugar and a little banana extract.
Have ready a pretty mould, and just
before pouring the pudding into 1t fold
through 1t the whipped up whites of
the eggs. Serve cold on a low dessert
platter with whipped cream.
Those who are fond Of curry pow.
der often use it as one would pepper
and salt, in ordinary dishes, such as
soups, hashes, stews, vegetables, rice,
eggs, etc. The next time you serve
poached eggs at breakfast try dredging
just a little carry I'VE the top OF
each.
The next time you make layer cake,
instead of icing it first and .then cut.
ting 1t in slices, as usual, cut 1t into
small squares and ice each square
heavily, ornamenting the top with a
candied cherry, a piece of citron or a
walnut meat.

GOWNS FOR THE GROWING GIRL.
Deep Tueks Add Much to Usefulness
of the Garment.

In making gowns for growing girls
1t is well to provide for the outgrow.
ing of the garment in advance, with.
out spelling the effect In the begin
ming by making them too large and
ill.fitting.
For instance, the belts of the dresses
may be set up on the waistband l.,
stead OF on the edge.
In this way one is enabled to
lengthen the waist line by setting the
belt down some two inches. 1t is usu.
ally in this particular that the gown
is first apt to need frightening.
Deep tucks are much in vogue and
are exceedingly convenient for this
purpose. 1t is quite easy to leave
enough space between each of two
tucks to enable one to take others on
the wrong side under the wider ones.
These will not show at all, and can
b. let out as needed, without any 9th.
err change in the skirt.
The o~utgrowing of the sleeves may
be provided against in a measure by
setting the cuffs up, instead Of join.
ing at the edge of the sleeves.
Also tiny little tucks may be taken
at the bend of the elbow at the In.
side seam.
All these little points add to the
lifetime of a frock, and mean a great
saving to a busy mother.

COOKING Without Fire,

This novel and seemingly impossible
method Of cooking has already been
practiced In Norway, but 1t is so cx-
ceedingly simple that it may be used
anywhere Line an alr.tight box thick
ly with straw or hay, or even newspa-
pers, leaving a nest In the middle Just
large enough to hold a pot Of boiling
water containing a fowl, mutton or
whatever 1t is desired to cook. Cover
the whole with hay and put on the top
of the box, which must be close.fitting.
The heat from the boiling water is re-
tanned, OF course, but whatever is be-
ing cooked requires two or three times
as long as 1t usually takes.

Weigh four unbroken eggs. Equal
their weight in nour, sugar and butter.
Cream the butter and sugar until
smooth and light, beat the yolks OF
the eggs and add them to this mixture.
Beat for a few minutes, then put in
the -four alternately with the stlffened
egg whites and stir in lightly and
quickly a scant teaspoonful OF baking
powder. Pour into a creased baking
tin, not having the batter more than
a scant half-inch thick. Bake quickly
and steadily and when done turn the
cake out upon a clean fowl, spread at
once with jelly and roll. Cover with
tissue paper or waxed paper and tie
in shape until cold.

To Hemstitch on Sewing Machine.

Hemstitching, which can hardly be
distinguished from the hand work,
and which may be done much more
speedily, may be done Of the sewing
machine in this way: First, draw the
number of threads desired, in the
goods to be hemstitched, then fold
the hem over and haste the edge Of
the hem In the center OF the drawn
threads. Now loosen the tension on
the sewing machine and stitch exact
ly along the edge Of the hem. Pull the
hastings out, and taking the goods in
one hand and the hem in the other,
pull the edge OF the hem to the bot
tom OF the drawn threads and your
work is finished. Tucks hemstitched
In this way make a pretty finish for
children's clothes, and they are so
much more quickly done than by
hand.

weak ankles. Apply some to the
ankle and smear what is left on the
bandage Of white cotton and wind this

securely. 1t gives a very comfortable
support and can be worn indefinitely.
II It should crack, moisten It with
water and keep the ankle perfectly

The ruche, which is some three-quar.
tiers Of a yard in length and about
seven inches thick, is made OF four
