A CURE FOR NAUSEA

When starting on trip do not fail
to put in the trunk a box containing
some of the following remedies for
illnesses which are liable to attack
the traveller:
First "a small bottle of alcohol, as
one teaspoonful mixed with two tea
spoonfuls of water will give almost
instant relief to pain in the stomach,
or nausea; some lemons, as undiluted
lemon juice used freely will relieve
ear sickness, or tablets of black
licorice will answer the same pur-
pose. Nibbling cloves. inhaling vine-
gar, or placing sheet of writing pa
per against the stomach will cure
seasickness, SO take at least one of
these remedies with you Some sugar.
as cube of it soaked In lemon Juice
will allay the thirst. Swsetened lemon
Juice added to water is much safer
for drinking than plain water on
boats and trains. Take some sweet
milk chocolate with you, as 1t will
save you from a headache when
meals are delayed. Take some salt,
as one teaspoonful of table salt in a
glass of cold water taken in the
morning before breakfast Is a good
laxative. Half an hour afterward
drink two or three glasses of hot
water.-Exhange.

in devising simplified methods of
work
Better thinking and planning re-
suit in many improvements. Many
a woman would be ready for little
trip. picnic or outing for few days
If it was not strawberries or cur
rants or raspberries or tomatoes and
many other fruits all waiting for her
guiding hand for their preservation
for future use.
Get busy and find the simple scien-
tific methods and then use them.
Many berries sprinkled thickly with
sugar and sun-dried are delicious,
when ready TO use soaked in little
cold water and cooked slowly in
double boiler or a fireless cooker
Sun Preserves.
Dampness is a great foe to sue
cessful sun cookery. Select any
berries or mixture of one-third cur
rants and two-thirds raspberries, or
red or white currants alone, cherries
or pineapple for sun preserving.
Berries should be washed, hulled,
drained and covered with the sugar
equal weight with the fruit, or three
fourths the amount of sugar If not
so rich preserve is desired.
Put this into the refrigerator over
night spread on a platter. Add a
cup of water to each cup of sugar
and boil until a syrup. about fifteen
minutes; cover and stand this also in
refrigerator. In the morning dis
tribute the syrup equally over the
berries or any small fruit; pineapple
is better steamed first until tender;
stand in the hot sun for three or four
days or until the syrup is thick and
jellied; then turn into sterilized
glasses, which have been wiped dry.
The fruit should be covered while
In the sun with glass and when this
Is not possible use cheese cloth.
Sun-CooIed Jelly.
For currant or berry jelly wash
the fruit, pick over and weigh, heat
Ing only enough to start the juices.
Strain through a jelly bag and put
the juice in saucepan and cook
for three minutes. Have an equal
amount of sugar heating in the oven,
add to the juice, stir until the sugar
is dissolved, bring again to the boil
ing point for two minutes and pour
into sterilized. dry glasses; place
them in the sun under glass or
cheese cloth and the sun will evap-
crate the extra moisture and leave
nice firm jelly with fine flavor
Cover with melted paraf11ne and keep
In a cool, dry place.

SAYS WOMEN WANT
TOLOOK LIKE FREAKS
Billie Burke, off on Vacation,
Tells of Gowns Worn on
Board Steamship.

ON BOARD THE s. S. OLYMPIC.
AT last I am away on my we'll
earned vacation, with nothing to do
until fall. I don't call writing to my
dear paper friends work; 1t is just
being able to say the things 1 would
like to say and can't say from the
stage.
This year I am going to take long
time to visit many different places in
England and on the continent. You
may be sure that I shall have lots to
say on the subjects of both men and
women, for my interest in them
grows.
1 sometimes wonder If women really
do always want to look beautiful.
Take, for example, this boat. The
women came aboard, happy and pros
porous, well dressed-above all, well
dressed.
But as soon as the boat was fairly
off they disappeared to come back
later In shabby faded suits and i'm
possible hats. Such frights!
Women of wealth and fashion seem
to glory in looking as disreputable
as a man does when he goes fishing.
One society leader told me she was
going over to buy few gowns"
She looked the part.
1t seems rather pathetic that the
clothes that the women wear are so
ugly, for, barring sickness, there is
nothing like a sea trip to improve a
woman's appearance The moisture
makes her skin soft and pink and the
exercise she gets walking the deck,
the vigor of the salt water bath and
the freedom from over exertion and
late hours make her fresh and whole
some looking. If her hair is in the
least disposed to curl it becomes posi-
lively tantalizing to the men who
hover around.
But most of them pin over their
hair a frowsy old cap. on her feet
she puts broken-down shoes and she
wraps herself in a nondescript
sweater or cloak which can lay claim
to neither color nor fit.
But at 1.-The captains dinner" all
the women are beautiful again, wear
ing their prettiest clothes, and show,
every one of them, that fine feathers

DRAPED SKIRTS

Though the amount of drapery used
even in conservative models is in
creasing day by day, the silhouette
still remains slender. It Is, 1t Is true,
slightly enlarged in the middle of the
figure by the folds of the drapery at
one or both sides, but it is still ex-
tremely narrow at the foot. Indeed.
to make draped skirt hang with the
proper lines, the lower edge must be
so narrow that an open seam or slit
is as convenient as it is dashing.
Drapery now consists of more than a
couple of plaits taken up at one side
of seam. The folds are more
numerous and deeper and affect the
lines of the whole skirt more than
they used to. A favorite arrangement
is still, however, a caught-up effect
at one side of two-piece skirt.

Peppernuts

Four pounds brown sugar, one
pound currants, one-fourth pound
citron, one-half pound almonds one
quart buttermilk, one tablespoon each
of ground cloves, allspice, soda and
salt, two tablespoons coreander one
teaspoon each mace, pepper and
grated hartshorn. Pour boiling water
over almonds and remove skins. Chop
citron, currants and nuts very fine
and put them in the pan with the
sugar and spices sprinkled on top.
Stir hartshorn into one pint sifted
flour, add buttermilk and enough
flour to make as stiff as bread dough
and roll it long. Cut in small pieces
and make round as a marble. Put
these in tins one and a half inches
apart and bake brown. This amount
will make about half a bushel.

Oh. the years we waste and the tears

And the work of our head and hand,
Belong to the woman who did not

could know,
And did not understand.
A fool there was, and his gold he
spent

Honor and faith and sure intent,

Conducted by
Mrs. Alice Gilchell Kirk.
When We Go Berrying.

When We Go Berrying.
| have heard mother tell of the new
country in which she lived in her
early housekeeping days when all the
fruit was obtained only as they went
"berrying." Then Also. how sweet
and delicious in flavor such berries
were. All this has been proved to
me several times in the last few days.
Coming in from the country on the
car one morning last week a young
man said: II picked half a bowl of
wild Strawberries for breakfa st. "
Another said: I'VE picked enough
wild strawberries for a shortcake."
And then l had the pleasure of
doing some picking myself. so we are
not far removed from the happy
days when father and mother went
"berrying" as we supposed, as 1
know patch where the wild straw
berries grow in quantities sufficient
for present or future use for an ordi-
nary sized family.
If strawberries, raspberries or
blackberries are used while fresh 1t
is easy enough to have the original
flavor, but it is the canning or pre-
serving where much of the flavor is
lost. There is only one heat that
know of which is equal to the pre-
serving of this flavor, and that is the
heat from the sun.
To Save Labor.
In our New Housekeeping we are
looking for every means of saving
unnecessary labor. 1t Is very easy
matter to start these berry preserves
and then let the sun do the work,
and the mistress of the house can be
perfectly free to attend to other duties
or pleasures instead of standing for
hours over a hot stove.
Most of us have heard of 1.-THE Re-
juvenation of Aunt Mary" and ap-
plaud her in it, but we have been
slow to grasp 1.-THE Emancipation of
Woman" which is coming to relieve
her from the bondage of excessive
labor and arouse her intuitive genius,

Latest Princess Slips


The Balkan blouse dresses were
scarcely launched on the market be-
fore separate lining, in the form of
a slip, was made to take care of this
new requirement.
These new garments are cut on per-
fectly straight lines. They hang from
the yoke line to the skirt edge, with
no curves appearing under the arms.
Being quite snug-fltting around the
hips, all bullsiness Is eliminated in
the dress. while extra fulness for the
Balkan blouse is supplied by gather
ing in the top of the slip at the yoke
line, from which point 1t falls to the
hips in the soft blouse effect which is
now so fashionable.

THE FLY PEST

Every housewife should appoint
herself a fy-fighting committee OF
one. She needn't take the tiy-killer,
slip up behind one of the creatures
and swat him across the back; all
she has to do is to get rid of the
kitchen swill and sprinkle some lime
around. Now supposing she is al
ready bothered with flies, how will
she get rid of them? Here Is how:
Pyrethrum powder burned in
room stupefies flies until they can be
swept up and put where flies prop
erly belong. Burn little of this in
your house in the morning and you
won't find many flies hanging
around during the day.
A good all-round remedy is a solu-
ton of formalin or formaldehyde in
water. A spoonful of this in sau
Ger of water left exposed will wipe
out most of the flies in a ROOM OF
course flies may be got rid of by
darlkening all the windows but one,
and as flies are sensitive to light
they will swarm over to the lighted
area.

To Keep Hair in Curl

Dear Miss Doom:
Please tell me how to keep my mar
in curl while at the shore and obllge,
c. G.
OF the many preparations that are
used to keep hair in curl none is cas-
Ter for amateurs to make or is more
effective than bandoline made from
ounce seed. 1t is harmless and Keeps
the hair in curl. To make the prep
aration put a tablespoonful of the
seeds, bruised. to a pint of soft water.
Boil gently until the quantity is re-
duced to three gills. Then strain and
when cool two tablespoonful of CO.
logne and alcohol are added. When
applying to the hair a small sponge
is used.
If you expect to go in bathing be
sure that you rinse your hair In clear
water afterward.
