Good Things
to Eat

THE season for shortcake has arrived.
but making a good strawberry
shortcake is an art. Some cooks make
ii too sweet, others too heavy. The
layers of the cake should be thin but
light. and without too firm a crust.
Plenty of Stra wberries should be used
in the filling. strawberry shortcake
is seldom perfect without whipped
cream. Whipped whites Of eggs are
sometimes substituted. but with indif-
ferent results. If plenty of whipped
cream is used and the berries are mel
low and rich from standing in the sun
shine, and last. but not least. if the
'oUgh is light and 1aky. strawberry
lortcake is a dish fit for the gods and
lightly deserves its international fame
S an American favorite. The average
sauce served with a shortcake is
failure. especially the cloying hot
sauces often used. If the berries are
not juicy. pure strawberry juice slight
| ly sweetened may be passed with the
whipped cream. The juice will have
delicious flavor if obtained from berries
that have been standing with sugar
under strong sunlight for several hours.

MRS. SELBY AND PRIZE BABY

II have always used Cuticura Soap
and no other for my baby and he has
never had sore Of any kind. He
does not even chafe as most babies
do. I feel sure that 1t is all owing to
Cuticura Soap, for he is fine and
healthy, and when five months old,
won a prize in a baby contest. 1t
makes my heart ache to go into SO
many homes and see a sweet-faced
baby with the whole top of its head
solid mass of scurf. caused by poor
soap. I always recommend Cuticura,
and nine times out OF ten the next
time I see the mother she says: oh!
am SO glad you told me Of Cuticura.' "

mud. There were 65 feet of mud, and
between them and 1t were these thin
planks that might keel over at any
moment and send them to a sufrocat-
Ing death. And behind was the hidden
spring Of destruction that might loose
its slime again, flood the tunnel and
capsize the planks like cookie shells
en- turbulent sea.
When the man on the first plank
reached the wall on which the natives
were huddled he called to them:
you've seen the way I've come
Well, I'm going back, but I'm leaving
the planks for you to follow on. Crawl
along the planks as much like snake
as you can"
Slowly the men on the planks slid
back, leaving the wooden line behind
them. Slowly the natives followed.
Nobody spoke. The black mass un-
derneath looked as hard as a rock, but
was as soft as porridge and trembled
horribly.
AS each man reached the end plank
he was hauled In to safety and car
ried half-fainting out of the tunnel
The rest dragged themselves wearily
on. When the last native arrived his
mates thought he was a stranger. His
batr was perfectly white.
