for general use. One great advantage
these rugs have is that they may be
put in the wash tub as often as is
needful for perfect cleanliness. This is
a great advantage in bath room and
bed room rugs, as they are so easily
disnfected in cases of sickness, espe-
cially where there are small children.
The rugs for the nursery may be
woven with patterns that are a con-
stant delight to the youngsters. I re-
Gently saw one with border of geese

whole landscapes.

none are prettier than the simple blue

STRAWBERRIES MANY USES

OHc0 more tIlS season VI pleHIliui
fruits and berries has arrived and all
good housewives are studying various
methods of using them both on the
daily bill of fare and preserving them
for future use.
Strawberries are extremely plentiful
and cheap, but we are all familiar with
the many uses that can be made of
them. Who does not care for the
luscious, long-stemmed berries. served
with powdered sugar, for the first
course at breakfast? What a relief
after the monotonv of the usual or
ange and grapefruit
Then strawberry shortcake. the old
fashioned kind, slightly glorified. Here
is the recipe:
Strawberry Shorteake-Two cups
flour. two teaspoonfuls baking pow
der, 2 tablespoonfuls sugar, a pinch of
salt; sift ingredients together and mix
thoroughly with 2 tablespoonfuls of
butter; beat 2 eggs and add to milk
enough to make a soft dough pour
into buttered pan and bake; split when
done and butter Have 2 boxes of
Strawberries stemmed and slightly
mashed on which sugar has been
standing for some time; put these be-
tween the two halves and serve warm
with cream.
Strawberry Sago Pudding-Carefully
wash a cup of sago: cover well with
cold water and let soak for two hours:
put in double boiler and cook until
clear; add tablespoonfuls of sugar
have a box of berries stemmed and
literally sweetened ready to stir into
the saeo as soon as 1t is done: pour
into mold and serve cold with whipped
cream, or plain cream is very good.
Strawberry Bavarian Cream-Mash
box of Strawberries and press
through a sieve to extract the seeds:
add to the pulp a half box of gelatin
which has oaked an hour in one-half
cupful of cold water and then been
dissolved in one-half cupful of boiling
water: stir the fruit and gelatin on ice
until 1t begins to set, otherwise the
stir in lightly pint of cream whipped
and drained and turn into a mold to
harden. ALWAYS use either a porce-
lain or enameled mold, as tin will dis
color the cream.
Strawberry Preserves-Stem your
berries, wash If necessary and weigh
them: use a pound of sugar for every
pound of fruit: cover the fruit with
the SUGAR and let stand over night:
this will help the fruit retain its bril-
liant color instead of turning dark. as
thew so often do: in the morning cook
gently in their own juice, disturbing
as little as possible: when the berries
are transparent put into jars and seal
with para fin. These preserves are
better If only a few are cooked at one
time. The superfuous juice may he
used in making fruit punch or with
the addition of a little lemon Juice
very good jelly may be made.
Sunshine Preserves-Another meth
cd of making preserves which is a lit
tie more trouble. but will amply repay
YOU is to drop the berries a few at
time into a heavv syrup: when trans
parent remove with skinner, place on
large plates or platters; cover with
piece of ordinary window glass and set
in the sun for several davs: boil the
syrup in which the berries were cooked
until thick: pack the fruit In glasses,
cover with the boiling syrup and seal.

Menaced Lives

BERKELEY, Jan. 1.-THE residence
of Oliver Parquet at 1341 Stannage ave-

from lamp explosion last night and
two small children sleeping in the house
were rescued from the flames with some
difficulty.
Parquet and his wife attended the
theater and left the children in their
beds. The house was in charge of
Louis Parquet. a brother of the owner,
who sat up reading by the light of a
kerosene lamp.
Falling asleep, Parquet dropped for
ward. upsetting the lamp to the floor,
where it exploded, scattering burning
oil into the fireplace and about the
room. Parquet tried in vain to eX-
tinguish the flames. burning himself
about the arms and face.

fire were useless Parquet entered the
room of the children, who were asleep,
and succeeded in carrying them through
the burning room to safety. In the
meantime an alarm had been turned in
by neighbors who saw the fire.
The West Berkeley fire company re-
sponded to the call, but was unable to
make much of a fight against the
flames, which had gained headway be-
fore its arrival, and the cottage was
totally destroyed. The damages are
