The Uses Of Sour Cream,

The Uses Of Sour Cream.
In many homes sour milk and cream
are not appreciated. There are many
ways of using both, in cake, hot
breads and salad dressings, sour
cream is useful factor. To many the
griddle cakes made of sour milk or
buttermilk for the liquid, are far su-
perior in flavor to sweet milk
A spice cake which has been en-
riched by sour cream Is especially del.
icate in texture and fine in flavor. Even
sour milk makes a cake that keeps
moist much longer than an ordinary
cake made Of sweet milk.
Sour cream with raisins makes a
good filling for pie. AS a salad
dressing, sour cream is especially
good on vegetables.
When wanting to make cakes that
will please the children, try using a
cup of sour cream, two well beaten
eggs, cup of sugar, little spice sift-
ed with -four enough to make a thin
cake batter, using teaspoonful of ba-
king powder and one teaspoonful of
soda. Bake in gem irons with a nice
big raisin in the center of each. Bake
in moderate oven, and just before
putting to bake sprinkle with little
sugar.
Sour cream used on cucumbers is
liked by many. The addition of lit
tie vinegar with the seasonings makes
a good salad dressing for those who
like it. Cabbage shredded fine is also
served with a sprinkling of salt.
There is no need to ever throw
away any sour milk or the delicious
cottage cheese which is made from it.
Let the milk stand in a warm place
until the curd has separated from the
whey sufficiently to drain. The back
part of the stove is q good place. Aft
er the curd has been drained, put it
into bowl and add salt, cream, but
ter and little onion juice. Mix we'll
to season thoroughly, when it is
ready to serve. There are few peo-
pie who can resist creamy, we'll sea-
soned cottage cheese, but it must be
made of milk that is rather freshly
soured to be good flavor.

Among pioneer inventors to whom
the diving dress in its present per-
ffected form owes 20 much was VIII

the Taylor patent OF June 20, 1888, in
which the essential feature was the

sumed air without an influx of water.
Previous to this time, the Scientific

diving chests and the diving bell. Of
which tho latter. introduced by Snear

The correct thing in party footwear
for little girls this season is the pump

white kid and black patent leather are
also used. These pumps are worn

Gloves should always be worn at a

CARE OF THE SUMMER SUIT
Home Laundering a Thing That Ia
Worthy Of the Most Careful
Attention.

1t is we'll worth while to pay care
full attention to the home laundering
Of summer suits. With a little care
they can be kept like new after each
washing. In the first place, the water
should be tepid and the soap not al
lowed to touch the goods. Each piece
should be washed and rinsed and hung
up in the shade on the wrong side be-
fore starting another. The starch
should be thin-boiled, but not too hot,
and after starching each piece should
be wrapped in clean sheet or towel
and ironed upon the wrong side as
soon as possible.
Old housekeepers say that linen
suits should be washed in water that
has had quart bag of hay or bran
boiled in it. This will take the place
of starch. A handful of salt or lit.
tie OK gall added sets the color, and
the latter is sure to brighten yellow
and purple and always makes a green
look better.

Mushrooms.
As the season for our best mush'
rooms is now why not watch for them
1t is a great pity that thousands OF
pounds Of this great delicacy goes to
waste because people are either too in
different to their value or afraid
OF getting poisonous variety.
In no line is the old proverb more in
force, "a little knowledge is danger
GUS thing" than in the study Of
mushrooms.
There are always books and people,
If we look for them to meet all our
needs, so get good book on mush'
rooms, study a few of the common
kinds and learn to distinguish them

that are especially fine If picked when
fresh. They are we'll named the
"inky caps" for when decaying they
become fluid and black.
Mushrooms are a most interesting
study, and the more one learns of the
fungi the more one enjoys the study,
There are so many edible varieties
that one may get to recognize few
with very little study, then confine
themselves to those, so that there is
no danger Of getting a poisonous va
riety.
When carefully picked and cleaned,
mushrooms do not need washing. The
cap Is peeled from edge to the center,
stems removed and they are ready
to cook.
In the cooking of mushrooms, wheth.
er used In sauce or any combina,
ton, they are first sauted In butter fox
five minutes, which brings out the
flavor. then they may be added to a
brown sauce for beefsteak or served
In soup.
To broil mushrooms remove the
stems, peel the caps, lay on a broiler
and broil on the top then add little
butter to the hollow part of the cap
and finish on that side.

silk and cotton gloves are washable

or channels.
The hair ribbon is surely the most
bothersome of all accessories and a
detail that nowadays costs a pretty
penny. This summer fashion dictates
very wide hair ribbons-of the same
width. in fact as those used for the

mothers who always prefer the light

are always becoming to the fair skins
of children. However, the very new

such Powered ribbons as are a real

most delicately harmonized shades of

that the combined efforts of the de-
signers and the manufacturers could
devise.
The brilliant Roman stripes are also
fashionable once more. and surely
these gay colors lend greatly to the
fresh daintiness of the little lingerie
frocks. Except for very little girls
the sashes are not tied in the back,
but either on the side or on the side
front. The bows are usually made in
the ribbon once and for all, so as to
keep the sash free from creases.
The pretty fashion of running the
ribbon under the sheer lingerie frock
and drawing it through only where the
bow is tied-a fashion popular with
grownups as well-has been adopted
In the newest hand embroidered
French party frocks. Besides the
sashes made from ribbons, little girls
have made-up sashes Of satin or silk
designed to go with their party dress
es. These are usually finished with
tassels or rosettes Of the silk or satin.
