Apple Fluff

Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatin
in one-half cupful of cold milk for five
minutes. Scald one cupful of milk and
add to gelatin, with two tablespoon
fuls of sugar and a few drops each of
vanilla and lemon extract. When cool
and partly stiff whip in one large
cupful of leftover apple sauce and
beat with an egg-beater till light and
creamy This may be served by itself
for dessert, or a more elaborate way
is to fill sherbet glasses one-third full
of lemon jelly colored delicate red;
when the jelly has "set," place one
half of a peach (canned) in each glass
and on this heap the apple fluff as
one would use whipped cream. A
sprinkling of finely-chopped walnuts
and cherry make dainty finish to
this delicious dessert.

For Tiny Tots

For tiny girls under many of the
newest fall frocks are made very
long, waisted-that is if one may
dignity by the name of waist the
position of the sash which leaves only
a narrow plated or gathered skirt
visible below it. The waist is slight
" bloused. and in the best models
of children's dresses designed for
school or everyday wear there is
little trimming to interfere with the
excellent lines.
Full-length front closing edges are
noted among new fall frocks, and
there are novel little garments that
slip over the head and fasten on the
shoulder.
Crepe and corded weaves are par
ticularly favored for children's
clothes, and there is much tandem
broidery in bright colors used for
trimming. The latter appears not
only on dresses. but little coats and
hats as well.

fruit. When the rice, etc, is quite

The Hair and Its Care

Whether the locks be golden or
dark, one of the greatest gifts to
women is undoubtedly a beautiful
head of hair, and once possessed,
every care should be taken to retain
it. Its loss, whether prematurely by
disease, worry, or by the inroads of
time, is always lamented, and various
lost hair may be restored. A very
common trouble which causes the hair
to fall or become prematurely gray
is headaches. The result of illness
and excessive heat will also affect
the hair, causing it to fall or become
dry and break off.

behind him all but a single portman-
teau. Uncle Jefferson had already
taken this-with Chum-to the sta

sorrowfully afoot to the blockhouse,
a half mile up the track, to bespeak
the stopping of the express. He
would go back on the horse his mas

Scalp Massage

Few women realize the benefits OF
scalp massage in promoting the
growth of the hair and preventing its
falling. 1t is better to massage it in
the morning, when the scalp Is not
too tired Before beginning opera
tions brush the hair lightly-then,
seated in front of the mirror, place
the thumb of each hand on the tenn
pies, allowing the two first fingers to
meet in the centre of the scalp above
the forehead. From this point press
gently down on the scalp with the
ign with a circular movement. The
skin Of the scalp should be felt to
move under the fingers. Continue
massaging in this way all over the
head.

SuperfIuOus Hair and Mustard
ChOWchOw
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
Could you tell me how to get rid
of hair on the face without injuring
the skin; and could you also give me
a recipe for mustard chow chow?
Thanking you in advance remain,
A. S.
Electricity is the only method of
removing hair permanently, but it is
very expensive and very painful, and
unless the roots are killed the hairs
will come back.
Peroxide of hydrogen and household
ammonia. equal parts, will bleach the
hairs if applied frequently, and in
time will cause them to break off
close to the roots. The treatment
must be renewed when necessary. If
the mixture irritates the skin rub in
a little cream after bathing the face.
You will shortly see a chow-chow
recipe in the other column.

siclxly flame showing bruise-like

echoes. Among them mixed another
sound far UP the desolate road, COM
ing nearer-the sound of horse gal
looping fast and hard.
His own fidgeted. flung up wide
nostrils and neighed shrilly. Who
was coming along that runnelled
highway at such an hour in SUCH
breakneck fashion?
The train was nearer now; he
could hear its low rumbling hum,
rising TO a roar, and the Click anu
spring OF the rails. But though ne
lifted a foot from the stirrup, he did
not dismount. Something in the
whirlwind speed of that coming
caught and held him motionless. He
had a sudden curious feeling that all
the world beside did not exist; there
were only the sweeping rush of the
nearing train-impersonal, unhuman

and that unknown rider whose an
guish of speed outstripped the steam,

Growing Stout

When persons are growing fat the
first great principles of prevention are
less food and more exercise. The sec
,ond great principle of prevention is
the avoidance of those articles of food
which are known, when taken in eX-
cess, TO produce obesity. viz, fat of
meat, bacon, fat pork, white bread,
cheese, butter, thick soups, salmon,
stews. preserves beer, sweet wine,
spirits. articles containing much
starch, as potatoes, tapioca, rice, ar
rowroot, sage and sugar, and these
must be interdicted, or at least taken
in moderation.

clean white French plumes that are
slightly soiled? l would prefer not

any way I may do them myself.
ORANGE READER.
Cover the plume with French chalk
for forty-eight hours. Put away in a
box. out of the light. At the end of
the time brush and shake thoroughly.
If necessary repeat the process.
Or put in bag with a quantity of
cornmeal and shake thoroughly.
Then take out the plume and rub
the fues with the meal, using a soft
brush for the purpose. Put back in
the bag with clean meal and shake
again. Then put away in the bag for
day and night. Remove and shake
thoroughly.

Plaster of Paris Substitute

To make a good substitute for plas-
ter, take equal parts of coarse salt
and ashes and mix with water to the
consistency of paste thick enough to
spread. If ore wishes a white plaster
to repair places where plastering has
fallen off, use equal parts of salt and
flour. This is invaluable for stopping
up all kinds of cracks in walls, knot
holes, stoves, etc, as when it dries it
is as hard as cement and no mouse
will venture to nibble through it.

chilla coats will be worn all winter?

I think the kind that are worn just

be able to manage with a sweater
underneath. If you can afford but
one coat for fall and winter it would

CONTINUED from Yesterday.)

The great iron gate of Damory
Court hung open, and scarcely slack
ening her pace, she rode through and
nm the long drive. The glooming
house-front was blank and silent and
it's huge porch columns looked like
lonely gray monoliths IN the wan
light Not a twinkle showed at chink
or Granny; the ponderous shutters
were closed. There was sense of
desertion, of emptiness, about the
place that brought her heart into her
throat with a sicl1ly horrible feeling
of certainty.
She jumped down from the blowing
horse and hurried around the house.
The door of the kitchen was open
and ladder of dim reddish light fell
from it across the sgrass. She ran
swiftly and looked in. A huddled
figure sat there, rocking to and fro in
the lsmplight.

Bran for Cleaning

Bran filled with cheesecloth bags is
excellent for cleaning wall paper. 1t
is also better than soap for the
bathtub and for the neck, face and
hands nothing is better. 1t is as
cleansing for clothes as for the body.
Boiled and the water used the same
as soapsuds, it is as satisfactory for
delicate fabrics as soap, and does not
injure the color.

For the Invalid

A nursery ice box in the sick room
is a convenience not only to the in
valid but to the nurse. A bottle of
water can always be kept there on
hand for drinking. Milk, too, can be
kept on tap and other food can be
stored there from day to day. Any
tin box can be made to serve as
nursery ice box. If you have an old
bread box, use that. Put pan In the
bottom of it, and lay wire cake tray
the sort that you put in the oven to
hold cake or bread tins, over the pan.
Put the ice on the tray and the melt
ing water will drain into the pan.
This, of course, must be emptied
whenever it is full. Put milk and
water in the bottom of the box and
put other things around the ice, on
the wire tray.
There is an ice blanket which helps
keep ice from melting and so reduces
the cost of ice, and one of these
would be useful in the nursery box.
1t Is wrapped about the ice or spread
over it and 1t Is said that it is as
durable as 1t is convenient.
