the justice, THE showing seems

ICES.

Frozen dainties are delightful at
any time, but it is when the Their
mometer scars and days are humid
and sultry and appetites jaded that
they are most welcome.
Trouble to prepare? Not much,
when you consider how much pleas
agSr it is to turn the wheel Of an
up to date freezer or chop bag Of
ice than to stand over hot stove
cooking a dessert or making soffee.
Plain ice cream, favored with
vanilla, lemon, cocoa, coffee, al
mond or chocolate, is excellent, but
the most delicious creams are
those made with the addition of one
or more fruits. Strawberry and
pineapple are prime favorites, but
raspberry, peach and orange are
nourishing and refreshing. and diff
ferent combinations may be tried
until a particular favorite is discov-
cred.
Water ices cannot be made with
cooked fruit, but should have the
expressed juice of the raw fruit
mixed with water and sugar. Some
kinds of fruit. especially grapes,
cherries and peaches, have a
gummy property that causes them
to become light and white in the
freezer if beaten too much, as II
eggs or gelatin had been added
Consequently, when water ices are
desired they are made better in an
old fashioned freezer.
Plain Ice Cream--One quart milk
heated in double boiler, there eggs
beaten separately, four tablespoons
sugar, flavOring, two tablespoons
cornsarch and one quart cream or
rich milk. Dissolve cornstarch in a
little cold milk, add beaten yolks
and sugar. pour hot milk into this
and return to boiler. Cook five
minutes, stirring briskly. Remove,
add cream and beaten whites Of
eggs and the flavoring. Freeze
when cold.
Rolypoly Ice Cream.--Make plain
Ice cream. Mold in balls with two
tablespoons or pack in round molds.
When ready to serve, roll them in
or sprinkle over them grated cocoa
nut, powdered macaroons, chopped
nuts or candied ginger. citron and
orange peel. Serve with a sauce
made with cup of sugar and one
cup of water boiled four minutes,
add chocolate, chopped fruit, or
favorite flavoring.

Fuits, containing as they do, a
variety of sugars, acids, flavors,
potash, soda salts and other miner.
ais easily assimilated should form
large part Of our diet all the year.
Fresh fruit Is cooling, stimulat.
ing, refreshing and one of the great
est aids to digestion, and, like nuts,
is a necessary luxury.
When cooked, sugar is usually
adde, making the nutritive value
higher, but causing the loss Of much
Of the original flavor.
1t is not enough for one to eat
each day the exact quantity of food
needed to sustain life and strength.
A certain amount of bulk is needed
to keep one in good health, and
fruit furnishes this without over
crowding the body with nutrient
matter.
In hot weather the amount of
moisture exuded from the body is
greater than in cooler weather and
more liquid is required to maintain
a right temperature. So we resort
to cooling beverages. When these
contain citric. or similar, fruit acids
they are found to be more cooling
than clear water. Here are few
recipes for refreshing drinks:
Raspberry Vinegar.-Put two
quarts of raspberries in stone jar:
pour over one quart of vinegar, let
stand "a hours; strain and pour
liquid over quart of fresh fruit and
let it stand "a hours; repeat opera
ton third day. then add one pound
of sugar to each pint of juice,
bring slowly to boil and bottle. Two
tablespoons to glass of water is
sufficient. Strawberry vinegar is
made in the same way
Strawberry and Raspberry Shrub.
Take one gallon berries, one-half
gallon cider vinegar; let stand over
night; strain, put in six pounds of
white sugar; when it boils skim
and cool, then bottle. When used
put in two-thirds ice water.
Currant Shrub.-Add to each pint
of strained currant juice a pint of
sugar; boil gently 10 minutes, cool,
bottle and cork.
Elderberry Sirup.-Wash berries
and add very little water. When
they boil. strain and sweeten, allow
ing one-half pint of sugar to each
pint of fruit; boil 20 minutes, cool
and bottle.

TWO QUARTS OF WATER
DAILY TO CLEAR COMPLEXION

Water, clear, cold, but not iced, has
cleared my complexion" said woman
whose Improvement of looks has puzzled
some of her dearest friends. 'tOh. yes,
some of that which l drank was from
foreign springs supposed to have chemi-
cal properties for clearing the system of
acids But, so far as / can discover. all
foreign waters are supposed to do that.
Perhaps they do; don't pretend to say.

Il heard much about drinking water in
quantities, and l thought | couldn't. 1t
is a fact that l cannot digest it when

heavy foods. But taken between meals
the effect is different. 1t might be pre-
digested, as 1t does not trouble me, and L
nave cleared my complexion by the water
cure.
This theory is simple, for 1t means
When practiced that you must have suf-
ncient liquid in your system to aid the
excretOry organs in doing their work.
You see, without enough liquids the same
condition prevails that would in sink
pipes if grease and scrapinSs from dishes
were thrown in the sink and onIy little
water trickied down the pipes and that
condition, as every one knows, would be
that the inside of the pipes would becom.

they would be closged and a plumber

you require a physician to regulate and
GEAR your stomach and blood from lne

hat two quarts Of water drunk every day
would ward off many Illnesses.
THE point that brought to my mind
the importance of plenty of liquid in the
system was that When my baby's liver
appeared to be dormant the doctor who
called told me my small son wasn't geL-
ting enough water. How could you ex-
pect that baby intestines TO work per

to go through them easiy?' he said. And

he became normal and has been ever

the experiment on myself. My complex
