as best they can, but It cannot be
denied that the vets are conduct
ing an intelligent campaign. They
are quoting from the records in Mar

it is keeping the drys on the move

forward
Even the drys who are not num-

Tasty Recipes.

Into one cup boiling water put one
tablespoonful cornstarch, stirred smooth
in a little cold water. Cook until it is
done and clear, then add one cupful
sugar, teaspoonful butter and the Juice
and grated rind Of two lemons. Add the
beaten yolks Of three eggs and take a.
once from the fire. Have ready we'll
baked crust, pricking 1t before baking, so
there will be no blisters.
Place the cooked custard in the crust
and set back in the oven for ten or more
minutes.
Meantime prepare the meringue. Take
the whites of the three eggs-and they
must be fresh eggs. not those that have
laid in storage until the contents of the
egg shake in the shell-add three table
spoonfuls sugar and the least pinch of
cream of tartar. then beat preferably
with wire whip until thick and stin. II
the eggs are fresh and cold. this will not
take more than five minutes. If they are
not stiffened in that time you can make
up your mind that the eggs were lined or
are exceedingly stale. Spread lightly on
the pie, and having shut of all direct
heat in the oven, set back until pulled
and golden brown. With fresh eggs and
a coolish oven there is absolutely no fall
ure of a meringue

Reducing Hips.

Nothing is more important when try
ing to reduce the hips than that one shall
sit properly. Unless one sits SO that the
tip Of the spine is straight and not
curved under, the abdomen Is thrown for
ward and the hips are misplaced, making
them big and fat. In sitting the small OF
the back should never touch the chair. but
the lower part of the spine should be as
far on the chair as it can be pushed. Few
women sit way back in chair. They get
as far as the middle of the seat and tnen
lean the rest of the way.
A good exercise for reducing the hips Is
to sit astride a chair and twist the body
can be without moving in the chair. This
makes a direct pun on the hip muscles.
and If the work is done persistently Will
help to take off flesh.
Trying to touch the floor with the ups
of the fingers without bending the knees
is one of the best things to make the hlps
smaller. Lying fiat on the floor and fals-
ing the leg high without bending the knee
is another good movement.
All these exercises should be gone
through for at least ten minutes night
and morning. After couple OF weeks
the work should be increased to fifteen
minutes. The Improvement Will come
slowly, but 1t will be evident after a
couple of months If all the exercises are
done hard enough to act upon the muscles
about the hips.
To reduce flesh about the shoulder
blades place the hands on the hips, arms

ton.

FOR STOUT PEOPLE.
No Taffy, starchy or Sweet Foods
Must Be Eaten.

Must Be Eaten.
With increasing years the tendency of
most women is to grow stout, but ex-
cess of flesh can be avoided. so that a
figure whose outlines are attractive may
be kept If proper diet and correct car
rage are adhered to. Nothing will more
quickly ruin the figure than the sloppy,
careless way of sitting which women so
frequently have. for unless the body Is
we'll back on the chair seat, so that the
spine is in straight line. holding the fig
ure erect, the hips will grow large and
the abdomen become prominent. 1t is the
habit of sitting on the spine about three
inches from the tip that occasions this
ugliness of shape. This I have said
many times already, but it seems to bear
repetition.
Understand that the first point In pre-
serving, the figure is that the spine must
be straight and the shoulders held back.
Then proper diet becomes a matter of i'm
portanoe. Briefly, the food matter means
avoiding such articles as make fat more
quickly than 1t can be worked off, but
precisely what these are seems to be a
mystery to many persons. Obviously
those containing sugar. starch and an ex-
cess of natural fats are to be tabooed.
but for a person who knows little or
nothing Of these a daily dietary list is
stint ones self: neither Is 1t required that
one shall walk perpetually to keep down
flesh. All that is essential is common
sense in exercise and that the stomach
should not be overloaded.
Avoid Fatty Meats.
The meats to avoid are pork. bacon and
veal. Milk and sugar. cream. cocoa and
the yolks Of eggs are also not to be
eaten In the fish list cells. ScallODS cat

made from stale bread is possible, and

distasteful to the palate little saccha-

than one at meal.
Food for Luncheon That is Not Fat

For luncheon there may be a bit of cold
meat, toasts, onions or tomatoes, and
some fruit cooked without sugar. or else

exception the fruits now in market will
