WOMEN AND THE WEED

The question of the liberation of
smoking or the insistence upon non
smoking seems to have been pro-
jected untimely into the consideration
of women's clubs and associations. 1t
is alleged. on one side. hat the num-
Der of women smokers is rapidly in
creasing and hat their comfort
should be provided for.
On the other hand, it is alleged that
nice women do not smoke. and that
the practise should be forbidden in
places where more women e re-
taxation.
This question is untimely because
the great majority of our women folk
have not acquired the cigarette habit.
They get along just as we'll without
the smoke as with it. But let them
sit on the piazza of an evening with
the men of their family and they do
not revolt at the blowing of a cloud"
by their male companions.
II is essentially a matter of taste
or of odor. In some English de-
Tendencies the women smoke not only
cigarettes. but cigars, n enjoy then
fragrance. Are they the worse for it,
Certainly not. physically.
1t seems to remain for the men TO
! say whether the kiss from lips per-
| fumed by tobacco IS the less delicious
The reform, if there is t be a re-
form. must originate from that side.

ONE OF THE LATEST SKIRTS

Skirts still preserve their long,
straight lines. but many of them are
showing { plated portions that are
pressed very fiat but allow greater
freedom for walking than the plain
models. The illustration shows one
of this kind. The front and back
portions are perfectly plain and the
sides are finished by panels lengthen-
ed by plated portions. The closing
is made at the back edge of the panel
ON the left side. The skirt may be
finished at either the high or the
natural waist line, and both are
equally correct this season. The
model is excellent for the separate

How to Care for the Sick

Into every home at some time there
come sickness and the necessity Of
caring for the patient. In many in
stances 1t is desirable and feasible to
the patient to a hospital, where
she is assured of the best Of care and
the family is relieved of all response
bility. In other cases, however. II
seems imperative that the patient
should be cared for in her own home.
In such a case the selection of the
room in which the sick person is to
spend perhaps a number of weeks
should receive considerable thought.
The room should be on the sunny
side of the house where at some por-
ton of the day sunshine can enter.
1t should be well ventilated and stu
ated as far as possible from the noise
of the street. and far enough from
the kitchen SO that the odor of cook
ing does not penetrate. Nothing is
more annoying to a sick person, and
especially one afflicted with a disease
Ike typhoid fever. In which the pa
tent is not allowed any solid food,
than the odor Of good things that
tempt the appetite, but which must
be forbidden.
All unnecessary furniture should be
| removed from the room. Draperies,
ornaments and other dust2 catchers
| should not be allowed to remain.
| Besides being traps TO catch tbs
disease germs. they are liable TO be
annoying to the patient If they are
not busted every day. / have known a

Canning Recipes

Dear Miss Doom
viii you please give me some good
recipes for preserving or canning pine
apple. plums. peaches. pears. blackber-
ries. tomatoes for stewing in winter also
a good recipe for picked onions. Thank
ing you very kindly.

THE NEAR FUTURE WILL ALL

FOR REFERENCE?
How to Can Fruit.
There are three principal methods
of canning: Cooking the fruit in =
lar in the oven; cooking the fruit IN
a lar in boiling water, and stewing
the fruit before it is put into the jar.
After being sure the jars and tops
are perfect and the rings new ana
supple it is necessary to sterilize tho
first two whichever way you choose.
Have two a pans, partially filled
with water, at hand, and place some
Jars in me-. and tops in the other.
Put both pans on the stove over .
fire where the water will com to the
boiling point slowly. Let 1t boil ten
or fifteen minutes. Have on the stove
a shallow milk pan in which there
is about two inches of boiling water.
Sterilize the cups. spoons. knives and
funnel, If you use one, in this water.
j. Stewing Fruit in Kettles-The
fruit, after being carefully prepared
is put. into the stewing pan (Which
must be without a fawl. over =.
moderate fire.
Berries and all ripe. mellow fruit
require u little cooking, only long
enough for the sugar to penetrate.
Harder fruits, like pears, ounces,
etc, require longer boiling.
When ready to put the prepared
fruit in the jars, slip a broad skim
mer or ladle under one jar at a time,
remove it and let the water run free.
Set the jar in the shallow milk pan
and fill to ~overflowing with the boil
ing fruit. Slip a silyerplated knife
or the handle of a spoon around the
inside of the jar. that h fruit and
the Juice may be packed solidly.
Wipe the rim of the jar. dip the
rubber ring in hot water. Put It
smoothly on the jar and fasten.
Place the jar Oh a board out of

day because the lower part OF a
sewing machine which was within hei
range of vision was covered with dust.
The busy mother. who was trying to
nurse the patient besides attending to
her daily tasks. had not the time 10
give TO all the little details Of busting.
The bed should be placed in such a
position hat the light from a win
dow does not fall directly in the
patients eye, also so that the morn
ing sun does not shine in her face
when she is lying on her side. The
room also should be provided with a
good artificial light. which, although
it may o be needed. should be
ready in case Of emergency. II is not
uncommon for a physician TO be
called in the night to attend some
emergency. as hemorrhage, and be
unable to see what he was doing on
account of insufficient light. Every
home should be provided with at
least one good light, which is EVIL
ready, for nj n can foretell when
it may be needed.
h temperature OF the room should
be kept at about go degrees Fahren-
heit, and should be as even as pos
sible during the various portions u
the day. At night the patient should
be provided with extra bed cover
ing. as the room usually is cooler at
that time. also because the vital
powers are at a lower ebb and the
naffonf raorfraa r.nra u-ar,nfb Case
should be taken that a direct draught
from an open window does not blow
! directly on the patient.

Another Superstition
Nv Dear Miss Doom:

NV Dear Miss Doom:
Kindly answer, IL possible. the fol
lowing. is there any truth In this
house Is a sign of trouble and DEATH
Sincerely MRS. ]. NJ.
OF course there isn't. How do you
suppose a poor little cricket would
have sense enough to pick out the
homes into which trouble or death
is coming and take up his abode
there? He has no power of looking
into the future and IL he had I ven
ture to say that he would shun
those houses which he saw were
doomed to sorrow and visit only
those homes where his vision told
MIN happiness was to be the order
Of the day.
OF course if the cricket is of abb
normal size and decides to commit
suicide in the pipes he might i'm
pede the proper action of the sewer
and thus cause trouble. but il he is
well-behaved he forebodes no evil.
Indeed. you may even take it as n
compliment that he is so sure of the
hospitality of your home that he does
not hesitate to enter unlimited.
Friend. 10 not be upset by any
little incident like this. Learn to
be above all superstition. Surely
there Is enough real sorrow in life.
Dc not borrow any by looking for
signs of impending trouble that will
never. iva come. Live so hal no
un~happiness may be brought upon
yourself or others through any ac-
ton of yours and believe that the
world-i is no controlled by n who
desires to add to our trouble by giving
us notice of some disaster that is
inevitable.

Is This Why English
Beauties Are So Fair?

Ever since the discovery hat mer-
colized wax would absorb and remove
a soiled complexion. its use by ladies
as a substitute for toilet creams has
grown rapidly. A perfect complexion
can be maintained indefinitely II this
remarkable substance Is used. Its.
beneficient cleansing, clearing and
preservative action is quickly appar-
emit, and ladies who have been pay
ing as high as a guinea q jar for
special cream" from beauty special
lists, soon recognize that mercolfzed
wax outranks them all. 1t has be-
come 80 popular that II can be OBJ
tanned at all chemist shops in the
British Isles. American druggists
also have great demand for II, in or
igiual ~one-ounce packages. The faN-
orite way of using Is to apply It, like
cold cream. before retiring. washing
il of in the morning.
The saxolite lotion for wrinkles and
the facial contour has also become ex-
tremely popular. One ounce powdered
saxolite Is dissolved in one-haif pint
witch hazel. Bathing the face In this
has a splendid effect.
