FOR THE TOURIST

The most serviceable and durable
dressing gown for the traveller Is
made of some dark, inconspicuous,
not transparent material.
Crepe de chine is ideal for sum-
mer wear. A dressing gown of this
material in a dark color can be
worn comfortably for months. 1t
does not show soil easily. and when
it is soiled it can be easily washed
and will look as well after a trip to
the laundry as before. A dark gown,
besides the fact that 1t will not
show soil so quickly as a light one,
can be comfortably worn on the way
to the bath on shipboard and in the
corridors, of hotel or pension.

Glove Etiquette

For outdoor wear white or cham
pagne-colored gloves are the fashion,
with wide black stripes. For evenings
the long mousquetaire glove rises to
meet the short sleeve. 1t is bad style
to have this glove too tight, making
the arm look wooden. 1t should have
any number of folds and for this
should be made of the very finest kid,
otherwise they degenerate into
wrinkles. Even in evening dress it
is correct to have shoes and gloves
matching each other in color, whether

although these suggestions and short
cut recipes which follow are largely
intended for men campers, women
campers will find them equally useful
when cooking without the aids of the
home kitchen.
When buying supplies for a camp,
before leaving town, consider the To-
cation selected, the climate and the
transportati ton facilities. If you will
be near town or farming COM
munity, much can be bought at the
local markets, thus saving the cost
of shipping and giving you the adj
vantage of fresh food; on the other
hand if you camp far from civiiza-
ton, purchase a good variety of con-
densed, dehydrated, canned and pack
age goods; this will furnish the high
est percentage of food value for the
least amount of bulk and weight.
Also remember that hearty rations
suited to outdoor appetites in the
north may cause sickness and dis
comfort If INDUCED in too freely in
a hot country.
In hot, dry regions, succulent foods,
fruit, fruit juices and cooling drinks
are called for. but If the climate is hot
with much humidity and low ground,
provide plenty of good coffee, spices
and easiy-d igested food-the kinds
that have no tendency to fermenta-
ton. To balance your rations proper
ly have some sweets and salad ma
terials and take enough pilot bread,
crackers and 2wieback for ballast if
it is not convenient to bake regularly.
For a summer camp portable
stove is great convenience, but
If you intend to cook on an open
fire take a folding oven and a wire
rack with folding legs. Thus equipped
you can cook, bake and broil and, If
you have a fireless cooker besides,
you have everything needful but
good camp cooking.
If you buy cooking utensils es-
pecially for the camp get those that
have folding or removable handles,
as they nest well in packing. Also
take several deep pie-tins and half
pint measuring cup divided into quar-
ters and thirds. This is essential be-
cause cooking by guesswork is waste
full.
A good substitute for the home
pantry will be found in a package
of heavy paper bags and box of
paper clips. Place the food in bags,
turn down the top and put on the
clips. This keeps out vermin and
the bags can be hung on the branches
of trees or in the tent. Other aids to
clean camp-cooking consist of few
rolls of waXed paper to wrap the
lunches in when tramping and some
cheap paper napkins. which cost ten
cents per hundred; these will often
save the day if you are in need of a
rag to wipe dish or your fingers
while cooking. Directions for making
other camp convenences, such as an
emergency fireless cooker, a collap-
sible meat screen and a cooling jar,
will follow in later articles.
Camp Coffee.
Ingredients = Eight tablespoons
ground coffee, one cup cold water,
seven cups boiling water and some
crushed egg-shells if on hand
Method-Place coffee, cold water
and shells in pot and shake well,
poor on ABBOTT three cups boiling
water and let this boil up rapidly
several times, now add rest of water
and keep simmering until it pours
out clear when tested, add little
cold water to settle grounds and
serve.

Sewing machines should be treated

of steady work oil the machinery
thoroughly, but be careful to wipe
away all superfluous OIL Run the
machine rapidly but steadily with
out any thread for five minutes after
oiling. This will cause the oil to
scatter and the superfluous drops
can be wiped away, and none will be
left to stain the material you are
