MAKING ICED TEA

In spite of all the doctor may say
on the subject, most of us will go
cheerfully on our way drinking iced
tea, as lon as it is hot.
If we must have it, however, let us
make sure that it is good.
An excellent Tut eXtravagant way to
prepare it is to pour freshly breWed
hot tea over a lump of ice, pouring
then into glasses half Glled with shaved
ice.
More practical for most people is the
brewing of the tea hours before needed,
and putting it away in the ice chest.
The tea is made strong, and weakened
with ice water Lefore used.
Iced tea must be cold, and it cannot
be cooled by a few Jumps, and weak
ened with ice water before used.
Iced tea must be cold, and it cannot
be cooled by a few Jumps in the
pitcher. Ice must Re placed in the
glasses.
Lemon is really better added peIore
the meal than at 1t.
Mix the sugar and lemon When the
ice water is added.
Still another way is that adopted by
Russians, of grating the rind of a
lemon and pouring hot tea over it.
If lemon must be passed, because all
members of the family do not like 1t,
it is better to cut it in lengthwise Sec
tions than thin slices.
In addition a small glass pitcher
filed with extra lemon juice may be
passed

Care for Carpets and Rugs

until grease is absorbed. Renew the
flour or other absorbent material as
often as necessary.
Housewives are cautioned to look
out for the carpet moth early. When
carpet moths are discovered, after re-
moving all artificial lights in the room,
saturate the cracks in the floor with
benzine. Wash upper edge of the car
pet with solution of corrosive sub
Innate and alcohol, 60 parts of poison
to one part of the alcohol. Be eX-
tremely careful about using this Ii
there are children about.
For ingram or three ply carpets
wiring a cloth out OF hot water and lay
it over the edges or binding, and iron
with an iron as hot as can be without
scorching. This destroys the moth as
well as eggs. Wilton and the heav-
er carpets must be steamed on the
under side.
A good solution to use in wiping up
the floor before putting down the rugs
ar carpets is as follows A quarter of
a pound of red pepper stepped in a
gallon of water, to which are added
two drains of strychnia powder.-Ex-

HOME REMEDIES

In dressing wounds one must remem-
ber that danger lies in the fact that
disease germs find lodgment quickly
from the air, the clothing, the skin and
everything else that may come in con-
tact with the wound. In consequence
blood poisoning, lockjaw and a train
of other complications are liable to
follow.
Even scratches, when not properly
cared for, may result in Inflammation
which will disable the child, cause the
loss of a limb, or even cost his life.
For this reason modern surgery de-
mands that the wound dressing must
not only look clean, but be surgically
clean. If they are dipped into an an
tiseptic solution of one tablet of bi-
chloride Of mercury to a pint of water
there can be no question of their
cleanliness.
Don't fail, however, to keep this and
ali other antiseptics beyond reacn of
childish hands.
Use tepid water which has been ster-
illzed-that is. boiled ten minutes-to
wash the babys mouth. Wipe the
gums gently, removing all fragments
of milk curds which may decompose
and develop germ life. Use cloth
which has been boiled, not the handy
end of the towel after the bath; or use
sterilized cotton, as the trained nurses
do, being sure not to leave any of it in
the mouth.
The best treatment of sprains and
bruises is the application of water.
The bruised or sprained parts may be
immersed in a pail of water and gent
ly pressed or manipulated with the
hand or soft cloth for ten or fifteen
minutes, or even longer in severe
cases. After which wrap the parts in
cloths wet with cold water and keep
quiet. This treatment keeps down in
fammation, and in nine cases out of
ten proves a speedy cure.

KEEPING THE HOUSE COOL

The main essential in keeping a house
cool during the heated term is its prop
er ventilation. Windows and doors,
including cellar windows, should be
open from sunrise to sunset, if pos
sible. Since on the first floor this can
not be done as a matter of safety,
those should be closed on retiring and
opened upon rising.
After s o'clock in the morning, all
shutters should be bowed and shades
pulled down and when the sun heat is
strong even the windows closed dur
ing the middle of the day, all being
opened at sundown.
A gas stove is almost an essential
for cool house. Screens in windows
and doors are necessary and straw
mattings upon the floors help much
toward a cool effect. Heavy draperies
and covers should be put away and
lighter fabrics substituted. Washing
down the porches and surrounding
pavements with cool water is also a
great help.

A MAlDEN'S MEMORY

"You smiled at me one day said she;
"Oh, 1 remember well;
You have forgotten, probably
Her modest glances fell
But l will not forget-ah' no!
1t seems but yesterday,
Although twas very long ago
You smiled and looked away
Her beauty thrilled me as l gazed'
She was sublimely fair;
heard her speak and was amazed,
But not displeased, I swear
1 could not think of any place
Or any other time
When I had looked upon her race
And fancied her sublime.
But was gladdened by her speech
And somewhat glorifed;
I thought of heights that might reaci

That she remembered made me proud

And with a courtier's grace l bowed
And smiled at her once more.

Sun and Air Good Physicians

all the windows, leave one of them
open put on more and more blankets,
and you will be able to endure the
gradually increasing cold of the nights
If you feel the air too much on your
head, put on a nightcap.
A simple device when the air from
the windows blows too freshly on the
bed is to place a screen directly be
fore the window. The screen stops
the draught, breaks up the current OF
air and diffuses it evenly through the
room.
Lieutenant Peary, the famous Arctic
explorer, once told me that he often
slept on the snow with no other cover
than his fur sleeping bag.
Now If Peary can sleep out of doors
in midwinter in the heart of the Arctic
region, cannot you invent some manner
of sleeping in your comfortable bed
with the window open for the sake OF
your lungs and of getting your blood
properly oxygenized? Take complete
bath every day of your life. Drink not
less than quart of pure water in the
course of each twenty-four hours.

THINGS GOOD TO EAT
Tomatoes STUFFED With sardlnes

Select large ripe tomatoes of uniform
size and pare them carefully with Il
sharp knife. Set on the ice to harden
and cut out the hearts neatly, leaving
the walls whole. Prepare the filing by
skinning boneless sardines and laying
them upon tissue paper to absorb the
oil. Then scrape as you would pick
Goldfish for balls" and work in a little
lemon juice and a dash of white pepper
Toss and work with a silver fork until
smooth and fill the cavities left in the
tomatoes with the mixture.
The combination of fiavors is very
pleasant.
Tomato and shrimp Salad
This dish I believe to have been
original with me. ] had never heard of
it until 1 prepared and set it before
wondering eyes that were glad after
the salad was tasted-then devoured.
Prepare the tomatoes as directed in
the preceding recipe. Set the followed
tomatoes in the ice after filling them
with canned or fresh (cooked) shrinDs.
Arrange the shrimps neatly, the backs
upward, and pack closely. Just before
| serving put a spoonful of mayonnaise
dressing upon the top of each.
Whipped Cream Dressing
This, too, [ might have held, even to
this day, to be an original device of my
own had / not chanced a while ago to
meet with it in Elizabeth Fennelps de-
| lightful melange of culinary lore and
poetic fantasies, "The Feasts of Lucul-
| lus." 1t was, then, coincidence, and not
| plagiarism, when evolved the com
| bination from my brain.
| Pare the tomatoes, halve each and
set In the ice until chilled to the heart
When you are ready to serve heap
whipped cream--chilled-on each halt
| having first sprlnkled it with salt and
yet more lightly with white or with
sweet pepper.
You may doubt my word that you
will find it delicious. Try it and COM
plain if you do not like it.
Tomatoes with MayOnnaise
Pare and cut out the hearts. Set on
ice until they are very cold. Serve with
mayonnaise filling the cavities. Pass
heated crackers and cream cheese with
1t as a salad course at luncheon or
supper.
Stuffed with Green Corn
This is also salad. Pare as above
and extract the hearts. Fill with green
corn that has been boiled on the cob,
then cut off and leave to get perfectly
cold. In serving cover with mayon-

Baked Stuffed Tomatoes
Select large, fair tomatoes, and, with
out peeling, cut a piece from the top
and excavate from the center. Mix
with the pulp thus extracted one-third
as much fine, dry bread crumbs; sea-
son with melted butter a few drops of
onion juice and pepper and salt. Stuff
the followed tomatoes full with this.

escaped from the tomatoes when you

You may, If you like, substitute
boiled green corn for the crumbs. This
is a nice accompaniment to roast meat
or fish. MARION HARLAND.

LOGIC EoR The MOTHER

The modern theory of child training
is to shift the responsibility of wrong
doing to a child's own shoulders. 1t is
early taught to weight right and wrong
and count the cost.
Mothers who are in despair over the
behavior of their children should try
making them free agents. Show them
plainly how unpopular they are making
themselves by their horrid behavior
Appeal to the reason. Teach them to
form their own decisions and abide by
the results.
A child so trained usually acquires
self-control when other children are
having parental control punished into
them.
A mother of a large and interesting
family said: "If l had a dozen chill
dren / would have to evolve a differ
ent way to train each one according to
his idiosyncrasies."

1T IS wonderful how the prejudice
against fresh air still maintains,
Il in spite of the propaganda of ply
slcians and health commissions; in
spite of the angelic visitations of dis
trict nurses to the poor and crowded
city tenements; in spite of the well
known fact that the most successful
treatment for tuberculosis consists In
taking out the patients bedroom win
dows, or putting him to sleep in tent
out of doors, even during the dead OF
winter.
We read about these things in the
papers every day, but if we have never
seen them we do not realize what they
imply-that one of the secrets of health
Is to breathe fresh air day and night!
If you have never had the habit of
sleeping with your window open, do
not, without some competent person to
help you try the experiment, begin the

Maud Howe in Harpers Bazaar.

A ROYAL FAD

Queen Alexandra's especial fad has a
daintiness well in keeping with her per-
sonality 1t is that of having her pock-
ct money made perfectly clean and

Whenever a cheque is turned into

scrubbed in lather of spirits of wine,

her purse and any change that may be
rendered her when making purchases
is taken charge of by a lady-in-wait-
ing until it has been subjected to a
like process of purification.-Casselrs

PoRCHEs WITHOUT ROOFS

When a woman plans her summer
home she is very likely to see first a
porch abnormally wide, says Kate
Greenleaf Locke in the Delineator. Her
fancy plays lightly with window seats,
steamer chairs, hammocks and avn
ings, and pauses contentedly beside
tinkling fountain trimmed with ferns,
the center of cool inclosed court
Alas and alack! she is often brought to
an unpleasant halt in these magma
tions by the reflection that these things
are expensive and consequently beyond
her means.
wide porch built in the old way,
with a solid roof of shingles, adds
substantially to the cost of house,
but there are several ways of getting
round this point. Today we realize that
we do not always desire q solid porch
roof, and our porch may be as wide as
we choose to have it when it is covered
only with supported beams over when
vines are trained; or a terrace porch
may be built, which means merely that
a floor is laid and surrounded with
low railing: over this an awning may
be stretched from the house to the
edge of the porch and secured there
by iron uprights or by slender wooden
posts. Where these posts are tWlned
with vines they are not an unattractive
addition to the house, even when the
awning is not in use and Is rolled up
out of sight.
The most desirable floor for terrace
porch is one of cement and in this case
rail is unnecessary. Small trees in
tubs and potted shrubs may be set on
the outer edge and the effect with a
red-and- white-s striped awning overhead
with low, basket chairs holding cush-
ions of Turkey-red calico and with a
few small rugs or mats of red-and-
white grass mating is gay and brill
liant and yet it will readily be seen
that there is not half the expense of
the old-fash shioned rooIed-in porch.
