Making soap bubbles is great sport
for the children when they are conA
fined indoors. The first thing to be
considered is the preparation of the
solution. Plain yellow soap is the
most reliable. 1t should be rubbed
patiently into bowl of tepid water
until a heavy lather is formed Every
particle Of lather must then be re-
moved from the surface with o
spoon.
The bubbles will be larger and last
longer II a lit1e glycerin is added TO
the soapy water. They may then be
blown with an ordinary clay pipe and
will grow from FIVE to six inches in
diameter without bursting, says an
exchange.
Moisten the forefinger with the
soap solution and try to push it
through the bubble well toward the
centre. II the bubble will stand this
test the solution is ready for use, but
lie 1t bursts when touched more soap
must be rubbed into the water until
the above experiment can be suc-
lcessfully accomplished.

The misleading guarantees clause
permitted under the food and drugs
act seems to say to the purchaser
that the government has investigated
the food bearing this label and found
it good The chief reason why the
cannot make such guar
antee is because 1t would necessitate
constant inspection of every place in
this country where food was manu-
featured canned or preserved, or in
any way for sale. If 1t were possible
to carry on such inspection ii could
only be done through the employment
of thousands of scientifically trained
experts, and by the expenditure Of
millions of dollars 1t might be some
what more practicable than the sug-
gestion of one of our latest faddists
that all home, kitchens where food Is
cooked be inspected, but Ii is scarcely
more necessary. The chances for un-
clean handling and the use of i'm
proper materials is probably greater
in thousands Of homes than in the
ordinary food mill or factory, says
writer in the october Pictorial Re
view.
we nave UOlnlnS dSalilSl the. pure
food list. Our objections are to the
advertised claims 1t cannot substan-
tiate, and to the exclusion policy
which unjustly discriminates against
products which others better fitted to
know have Judged as good and whole
some foods. We question the possi-
bility Of the definite assurance that
following this list insures the pur-
chase of clean food.
Opening the list at random, we find
eleven firms making mineemeat In
eight different cities; seventeen firms
putting up some twelve different meat
products in eight different places;
eighteen firms canning some sixteen
varieties of fish in towns from Maine
to Virginia, and as far west as Chi
cago. Then we find twenty-five diff
ferent firms putting up some thirty
kinds of preserved fruits, jams and
jellies, these factories being situated
in thirteen or fourteen different places
all the way from Boston to San
Francisco.
How can anyone give assurance as
to the cleanliness of any food product
other than by inspection of food,
plant and workers?
Clean food now indicates to most
people food packed, prepared and
canned under sanitary conditions.
Certainly the chemical laboratory
does not reveal whether the canning
was done by little children working
overhours under pitiful conditions, or
by diseased men and women.
Most of aus are perfectly aware that

Why are certain foods like meat
or eggs or cheese called strength
ening?" / asked Aunt Juliette today.
And how can you measure to find
out what foods are better than
others?''
30 you moan Co say you don't

what are the proteids and the fats
and the carbohydrates she de-
manded, amazedly.
wouldn't know a proteid from
potato" I returned without a blush.
Whereupon aunt decided on a very
formal lesson for me.
'Tn order to repair the waste which
our daily activity effects in our
bodies, and to supply us with con-
stantly renewed energy, we must get
the necessary quantity of the spent
elements in our food. That Is the
body requires certain amount of
heat and energy, and We must eat
the food that contains that heat and
energy. Here are the elements we
need and the food that supplies them.
First, there is protein. which fur
knishes us blood and muscles and tis-
sues. we get it in the lean Of meat,
white of eggs, cheese, fish and many
kinds OF Nuts.
'"Then we have fats. Fats supply
heat and energy, and come to us IN
the form of butter, oils and some
cereals.
Third, we have the carbohydrates

OF Interest
to Housewives
WHAT THE PURE FOOD LIST MEANS
AND WHAT IT DOESN'T MEAN

any local board of health should not
legally inspect or pass upon the con-
ditions under which food was manu-
featured in another State. Such a
task belongs TO the Federal govern.
ment and It's jurisdiction begins only
when n food passes across State lines.
Each State may inspect Its own food,
its own products, and frame its own
laws. Local boards of health are as
restricted In their territory as the
State. and State inspection of any
kind must be carried on by the State
board of health. Take milk for in
stance. A local milk inspector may
inspect the herds and barns within
city or town limits, He has no legal
Jurisdiction beyond the town or city
limits. He may refuse entry to sus-
pected milk, but he cannot forbid it's
sale elsewhere If another town re-
ceives it.
on what basis of fact, then, can
these foods be listed in regard to the
claim that to be certified by this local
board of health means that the prod
uct has been analysed and is pure,
clean. full measure and truthfully
labeled?

What a Clerk May Do

When a customer reaches her home
after q shopping expedition, it is not
so much the store that she remem-
bers as it is the alert, obliging sales
woman who showed her the rnerchan-
disc and assisted in selecting her pur-
chases.
If it happened to be one who was
brusque or inattentive in her man
ner, this is also apt to be remem-
-bered. and the influence which is left
with the shopper is that given, not by
any courtesy on the part of the firm
or the department managers, but by
the salesforce, who are the only ones
usually that come into direct contact
with the customers, says the Buffalo
Sunday Times.
There is an Importance surround
ing every duty which a saleswoman
performs which should not be under
estimated, for on her rests the re-
sponsibility of disposing of the stock
of merchandise In which possibly
several members of the firm have in
vested their fortunes.
The owners are in their offices at
tending to other parts of the bust
ness, the buyers have completed their
part Of the work, the advertising
manager has written the last of his
alluring advertisements, but upon the
salesforce has been placed the re-
sponsibility of meeting the customers
and playing hostesses to them
Courteous attention and obliging
service which the customer remem-
bers and which makes her desire to
return for other shopping as well as
to recommend that particular store to
her friends. are given mostly by the
Salesforce, who have the opportunity
to build an enviable reputation, not
only for themselves, but for the store
where they are employed

"Begin," repeated Davie, in an
expectant voice, as he clutched the
arm of Henry. the handy man,

Henry had promised to tell the

rather embarrassed because Uncle
Dick was present. Uncle Dick knew
this and took wicked delight in
staying. He loved to tease, did

glance.
"If Uncle Dick starts to poke fun,
Wen go away and not let him hear

there was no way of escape, clear

not, as you like:

at his pipe.

MAKE RUGS OUT OF
TAILORS' MATERIALS

When tailors make mems suits
they first cut selvages from the ma
terials used, These selvages make
much better rugs than ordinary car
pet rags, when woven in the usual
manner and they are warm and rich
looking especially If dark colored
warp Is used Another advantage in
favor of selvages is that they come
in long strips and require little work
in preparation for the weaver, says
the Mothers Magazine.
In place of sewing the rags in the
usual fashion, lay the end of one strip
fiat upon the end of another and sew
together without doubling. Tailors
usually throw away selvages and
would therefore give them away up
on request. others sell them to rag
men for a few cents pound.
AS these selvages accumulate in
quantities in the shops, It is an easy
matter to obtain all you may re-
quire.
Ii you wish to make braided rugs
of selvage, they must be used double;
even this lis an unusually easy mat
ter, as tailors always cut selvage
double. and the strips stick together
until separated

A SOAP BUBBLE PARTY WILL SURELY Yellow Soap Makes
MAKE A RAINY DAY PASS QUICKLY the Best Bubbles

With a correctly prepared solution
success In bubble blowing depends
mainly upon the observance of two
simple rules First, the solution
when once made must never be shalS-
en- up or stirred; second, everything
upon which a bubble is to be blown
must be literally smeared with the
soapy mixture.
To blow string of bubbles, first
blow one from the pipe, throw 1t into
the air; blow second. catch the first,
and so on. With practice q chain of
five or six bubbles may be formed, 1t
is simple matter to blow a number
of bubbles one inside the other To
do this, first pour very thin film of
soap solution upon a sheet of glass.
Then with a straw blow upon the
glass good sized hemispherical bub-
BILE. Now dip the straw second time
into the solution. thrust it boldly
Through the big bubble and proceed
to blow somewhat smaller one
within. Repeat the process as often
as possible and very pretty series OF
iridescent hemispheres will result.
