when my little girl was tiny baby she
broke out in little fine pimples here and
there over the body and head. They would
be about the size of a quarter after they
were broken out and would form scab
for week or more. Then the scabs would
begin to peel off. The disease would itch
and give her much trouble. AS she grew
older they would spread until some places
would be as large as a half dollar. Her
clothes seemed to make the sores burn and
itch. The sore spots were on the top of her
arm and two on her shoulders. She would
scratch them until they would bleed. Some
times in combing her hair IL would come out.

seem to be any good and used --- also
without result. She continued to break out
with the eczema until l wrote for a sample

USING LEFTOVER EGGS.

Leftover eggs-raw or cooked

whites keep better than raw yolks,
but the latter, if whole, may be put
into a cup and covered with water,
which can be drained off the next day.
Or several yolks may be partially
beaten and will not dry on top if
closely covered. Either white or
yolks may be turned into creased cup,
which then is set directly in water or
in a steamer and left to cook gently
until firm and reaGy TO chop or rub
through a strainer as a garnish for
soup, sauce or salad. A leftover egg

one-fourth cup of fine sugar. will make
a dozen little meringues or kisses
which may be garnished with a few
leftover nuts.
One os the best uses is to use them
Immediately for cooked salad dress
ing. A single yolk will serve as the
basis for a half cup or more of may
onnaise.
Soft-cooked eggs left on the break
fast table may be put back in the
kettle and cooked 90 minutes longer

! portion of omelet or scrambled egs
may be added to a salad or sandwich
mixture. Leftover Welsh rabbit o.

or cooked. Coffee jelly is such con-
venient way of disposing of leftover
coffee that it is likely to be overwork-
ed. Sometimes the coffee may be
thickened with cornstarch or tapioca
and whipped cream be served with it.
Leftover cocoa likewise may become
the basis of chocolate cornstarch mold,
or of a rice or bread pudding, which
will always please if carefully made.
1t has been well said that the great
est difference between the food of the
rich and the food of the poor is in
the cooking. There is much truth in
this, for to a very large extent we
live on the same foods.
There are two points, however,
which are so valuable in cooking that
everyone should understand them and
/ particularly when preparing food for
| growing children.
| FIRST-The cooking OF starchy
| foods. Raw starch is in little hard
| grains that are digested very slcgly.
/ When placed in hot water these grains
| swell up into soft mass and can
then be easily digested. Oatmeal or
cornmeal that has been cooked for
only a short time is very difficult to
digest, but if these foods are placed in
a double boiler and cooked several
hours they are Very digestible. Thor
oughiy baked whole wheat bread is
without doubt one OF the very best
building foods for children and every
normal healthy child can digest it. But
half-baked bread, with the starch
grains in it almost as hard as little
bits of wood is ruinous to the diges-
ton of either young or old. This is
also true in cooking the starchy vege-
tables.
SECOND-TYe use of the fats in
cooking foods for children. Fat is a
most valuable heating and strength
ening food, but, like every other food,
: it may injure the body if taken in
the wrong way or in too large
one-half an ounce of butter at each
meal. When fat has been made very
, hot, as often happens when foods are
fried, acids that injure the stomach
: are formed in it, Also when foods
5 are coated with fat the digestive
juices cannot get at them readily and
? they are digested very slowly or not
e at all For this reason fried foods
have no place in the dietary of chill
t fat as older people. Fried potatoes,
4 pancakes, crullers and fritters have
V no place in our children's menus.

Gently a Davenport firm was arrested
and fined for distributing hand bills
on the streets. Advertis enlents on
telegraph and telephone pies also
came in sor their snare OF criticism.
Mrs. John Volk and Mrs. Joe McCrory
followed Miss Gest and spoke on the
subject Of DETACHMENT, and a general
discussion was participated in by the
other members.
The determination Of the Fly was
the subject that Mrs. H. H. CleavelaGd
handled i'm a very wei prepared and
carefully tlOught-out paper. She told
Of what has been accomplished in
Panama and what can be accomplished
towards the determination of the fly.
Years ago it was thought impossible
70 eNterminate il because of the rapid
ity with which it terminates, but in
recent years ii has been demonstrated
that such thing is possible and in
some localities screens have been
done away with. She spoke of its
danger as a disease carrier and gave
statistics that were both interesting
and instructive. Mrs. G. G. Craig
spoke Of the fly especially as disease
carrier and told OF the manner in
which it spreads coutagion or its hab-
its and of the necessity Of exterminat-
ing il and preventing the spread OF
contagious diseases.
Mrs S. c.. Taylor, speaking also of
the fly, told what has been accomplish
