Oranges as Medicine.

Des Moines Register and l. ader.
People are coming round more
and more to the true opinion
that mineral drugs don't aid,
but rather retard recovery in
case of sickness, and that the
only true medicine is to be found
in those that supplies so freely
air, water and food.
Foremost in value as medici-
ma! foods are fresh fruits, and
none of these rank higher than
oranges. Oranges are very rich
in organic salts. They contain
high amount Of potassium, cal.
cium and sulphur, surprising
both cows and human milk in
this respect. No other fruit has
such a high percentage of sui.
phur. Orange juice contains on
an average ii IA per mile acid,
which accounts for the high
amount of potash and lime which
are necessary for the formation
of natural fruit acids. Pure
orange juice is an ideal remedy
for sCroiula, ricketts,, nervousness,
and especially blood diseases
| principally scurvy). 1t is most
valuable for the reduction OF uric
acid and other waste matter in
the system, and, therefore, both
a preventive and curative food
for rheumatism and gout. Con-
sumptive and anemic people will
also be greatly benefited by a
diet Of oranges on account OF the
high percentage of blood-buiid
ing salts they contain.
Lemons have the largest
amount of magnesium lime of all
the fruits They show the great
est acidity-73 per mile. Their
juice is excellent for the prepa-
ration of both fruit and vegeta-
BILE salads and should altogether
replace vinegar, which is worse
than alcohol, by depriving the
blood of its important organic
salts. Its medicinal qualities
are highly appreciated in the
cure of uric acid diseases.

Cut the cabbage fine. A cab
bage slicer is the best thing to
cut it with, and any hardware
store sh uld sell it. Sterilize
with boiling water the vessel that
is TO contain the kraut, and place
layer OF salt on the bottom of
it. On that put layer Of the
sliced cabbage, then a layer of
the salt, then cabbage, etc. The
layers OF cabbage may be about
the length of finger in depth
while the layer Of salt should be
about enough to cover the cab
bage lightly when evenly dis
tributed. Press or pound down
the cabbage from lime to time as
1T Is put IN, so az to make it as
firm as possible. Finally put piec

SWEET PICKLES.


To make sweet pickles, pro-
Ceed as in making sour pickles,
except that the vinegar is treat
ed. Sweeten to taste and add
such spices as will be most ap-
preciated by those who are to
eat the most OF the pickles. Or
dinarily total of tabespo poon-
full of spices of different kinds
will be enough for gallon of
pickles. Cinnamon and cloves
are two spices frequently used.
Both Of these vary considerably
liz strength, particularly CHINA
mon and one has to be govern
ed accordingly. The cinnamon
should be used much more liber
ally than the cloves. Those who
like dill flavor may add dill to the
spices. All the spices should
be tied in clean bit of cloth
and dropped into the vinegar, so
that the spices may be removed
and leave the vinegar clear al
ter the flavor has been extracted
from the spices. Good results
will be got by not making more
pickles at time than will be
used up in two or three weeks.
The economical housewife will
not throw the vinegar away af-
ter one lot of pickles is used, but
will reheat the vinegar when a
new lot of pickles are to be put
in, and it may be necessary tc

add more spice or sugar if sweet
pickles are being made.
DRYING FRUIT.
The main thing in drying ap-
pies or peaches is TO keep out
all imperfect pieces, any that
are bruised or worm eaten. Ap
pies are always pared before dry,
ing, while peaches may or may
not be The fruit may be spread
on clean cloth where the sun will
reach it, but where dust and
dirt will not. Flies may be kept
off by spreading white mosquito
netting over the fruit. Ii the
fruit is stirred about several
times day it will dry more
quickly, and its location may
have to be changed to keep the
the sun shining on it directly
throughout the day. II one has
enough air-tight cans, such as
big lard cans, they will be good
to store the fruit in after drying.
Heavy paper sacks will also keep
out insects and dust, but the
sacks should be tied very tight
ly SO that no small insects can
enter. The fruit should not be
stored where it will become
damp.
Any Polly who has an accom-
modatiug John who is interest
ed in her work and tries to help
her can, if he is handy with tools,
make simple apparatus with
wire cloth and a few strips of
wood, to rest above her stove to
support fruit to be dried, so that
the heated air from the stove
will pass around the fruit rapid
ly and dry it down in short
time. No wood should rest so
close to the above as to cause
fire to start. Sometimes fruit is
dried in an oven, but there is
danger of its getting too warm
and having cooked taste, or
the fruit may be burned. The
oven door, of course, is kept
open while the fruit is in the
oven.
