THE USE OF DRIED FRUITS.

{ Most housekeepers hardly appfecl.
cate the value OF dried fruits. They
ARE much more wholesome for the
schildren's eating tsan the sweet pre-
l';eryes and canned fruit that is con,
|sidered necessary in nearly all homes.
\ One Of the mistakes of the house.

Ethat she doesn't cook such fruits long

'ible, and give up serving them at ALL
The secret of delicious dried fruit
is long, slow cooking. The fireless
cooker Is an ideal place to cook dried
fruits.
Wash the fruit thoroughly In little
warm water, to remove all foreign
matter. Put on to soak over night, or
boil about five minutes rapidly, and
put into the fireless cooker to remain
over night. A dish OF wsll-cooked
prunes with a little cream and some
bread and butter makes, with an egg,
an ideal breakfast for small child.
When the fruit Is taken from the
cooker each piece will be swelled to
its original size, unbroken and full of

fruit, so much in advance o. the fiat,

riety.
Peas, beans and lentils are all
treated in this manner, and are cheap
er, besides being fully as satisfactory
as the canned.
Tapioca and sage are delicious des'
serts combined with dried stewed
fruits.
In cooking tapioca with dried fruits
put it to bake, and stir occasionally,
adding water If it seems too dry.
Serve with cream and sugar. This
makes a nice dessert for children who
must carry their luncheon to school.
Prunes favored with bit of lemon
Juice and sugar, rolled into buns or
rolls are especially liked by the chill
dren for luncheon.

Jail for siu caby.

Elizabeth, N. J.-"Your honor, papa
slaps me all the time, and it hurts,
too. / want you to send him to jail"
These words. spoken in a plaintive
voice by little James Kelley, Jr., of
1886 Magnolia avenue, to Judge Mahon
in police court, brought tears to many
eyes. Kelley Is only 81 and 6 feet
tall, and his father is 30 years older.
The aged man told a different story.
Judge" he said, Il used to think
Jimmy was only naischievous, but I
am beginning to be convinced that he
is incorrigible. He goes out every
night and stays until or 10 o'clock,
and, for all l know, may be in bad com"
pany. Then when l try to show him
the error of his ways he knocks me
down."

Juvenile court said Judge Mahon to
the bad boy; "but I'll take a chance in
disposing of 1t myself. Six months in

HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.

The careful mother, watching close.
~ the physical peculiarities of her
children, soon learns that health is in
a great measure dependent upon nor.
NAL, healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are inactive, loss Of
appetite, restlessness during sleep, ir-
ritability and a dozen and one similar
evidences of physical disorder are soon
apparent.
Keep the bowels free and clear and
good health is assured. At the first
sign of constipation give the child a
teaspoonful of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin at bedtime and repeat the
dose the following night, If necessary.
You will find the child will quickly re-
cover its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
DR.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin Is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and
purgatiye waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no gripping or
discomfort. Its tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, re-
storing their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell Dr.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and s100
bottles. II You have never tried this
remedy, send for sample to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Mon

The Control of Bovine tuberculosis

If the herd is healthy, one should
purchase only tuberculin tested
animals which have come from re-
liable herds. If they come from
doubtful herds they should be isolated
for three months and retested.
If the test shows only few diseas-
ed animals in the herd they should
be removed at once and the stable
disinfected. If the diseased animals
are of special value for breeding they
may be kept isolated and the offspring
removed at birth and never allowed
to feed on the milk of the diseased
COW, unless the milk is pasteurized.
If the majority of the herd is dis
eased, 1t is necessary to treat them
all as diseased and to build up a new
herd from the offspring. This is pos
sible by removing the calves at birth
and feeding them pasteurized milk
and testing them every six months so
that the disease if there should be
any, may be taken from the new herd
before it begins to spread. This re-
quires several years time, great per-
severance in preventing the disease
from being transmitted to the new
herd and persistent use of the tuber-
culin test.

REFRIGERATION ON THE DAIRY
FARM.

The warm weather is here and with
it comes the chances for inferior milk
and cream because of insufficient
facilities for cooling. The rate at
which milk turns sour in warm
weather is very clearly shown by the
following experiment: First, when
milk was cooled to so degrees F. at
once after it was MIXED and then
stored at room temperature, one
germ developed into five in "a hours.
Second, when the milk was not cooled
but allowed to stand at room tenn
perature from the time it was MIXED,
one germ developed into $50 in "a
hours. In other words, milk will
sour $50 times faster il no cooling is
given as when it is cooled to 80 or be-
low.
The most effective way to refrigerate
milk or cream is to cool it in ice
water. In this case a tank which
holds ice water and in which the milk
can be placed in milk containers
which are good conductors of heat, is
one of the best and cheapest methods
of refrigerating. The tanks holding
the ice water should be we'll insulated
