FOR NURSES TO REMEMBER
Those Who Have the Care Of InvaIIds
Should Keep These important
Points In Mind.

Invalids who dislike the flavor Of
meat extract will be able to take il
if a teaspoonful or so is added to a
cup of hot boiling milk. The milk
DISCUSSES the taste Of the meat ex-
tract. A small quantity Of this mix
ture taken when there is a feeling
of exhaustion will prove an admir-
rable restorative.
Every room in which there is sick
ness should be thoroughly aired
twice day. Shield the patient with
a screen and plenty Of covers during
the airing.
Placing a board three inches wide
and the full width of the window
under the lower sash will afford good
ventilation during the day without
unduly cooling the room.
If, however, it becomes necessary
to sweeten the room quickly a small
lump of gum camphor placed on an
old saucer with a few lighted matches
will soon overcome any heaviness of
the air.
Another simple deodorizer is bit

The Kitty League.

The Paducah News-Democrat very
wisely suggest tina it is time for the
directors of the X l. T. Baseball
League to get together at once and
outline plans for the coming season.
Following the suggestion made in
these columns some time since it en-
phasizes the fact that it is well to
begin casting about for material for
the 1914 season. Players not only
want to know whether their league
will quit business, but for self inter-
est they want to find out whether
they should arrange to go elsewhere.
1t is not wise to delay this matter
longer, as the most desirable men
may be gobbled up by other leagues
and in the way of incomptency 1913
may be repeated, there being then
no possible change of the Hopkins

Where Women Rule.

A little village has long existed on
the Cape OF Shima in Japan the
name Of which means the Settlement
OF Nymphs." In this village woman
is the predominant partner. The chief
industry is pearl fishing and the
women are the fishers. The men stay
at home and do the homework.
Some OF the men became discon-

diving. with the idea off becoming
pearl fishers themselves. The women,
dreading their competition. ordered
them to discontinue their diving, and
when they refused, declared a boycott
against them. They were chased
from their homes, and had to take
up their abode in a camp outside the
village.

According to the Journal OF the
American Medical association scien-

the aid Of monkeys, are now planning
to establish a monkey farm on the

may be more closely studied.

MAKING BATTERS AND DOUGHS
Comparatively Simple Proceeding II
the Cook viii Remember to Fol
low These Directions.

The woman who cooks by recipe has
not mastered the principles of her art,
any more than the boy has mastered
geometry who is not able to construct
triangle on a given line without re-
ferring to his textbook, says the
Youths Companion.
The principles that underlie the
making of batters and coughs are sim
pie and interesting, and cooking be-
comes a delight when you apply them
in devising new dishes and new COM
binations.
The four essentials in all such mix
lures are flour, wetting, salt, and
leaven. The four must always be in
definite proportions, but the non-es-
sentials, namely, sugar, shortening,
spice, fruit and fiavoring, may vary
according to individual taste. In
these non-essentials lies the scope for
individuality in cooking.
The proportions of the essential
ingredients should be committed to
memory, and adhered to rather strict
ly. The wetting may be milk, water
or beaten eggs, or of all three. For
thin batter you must have equal
parts of flour and wetting-a cup
full of flour to a cupful of wetting;
for a thick batter, twice as much
flour as wetting; for a soft dough,
three times as much -four as wetting;
for a stiff dough four times as much
flour as wetting.
Now for the proportions of the dry
ingredients: One cupful of flour calls
for one-quarter of teaspoonful
of salt; one cupful of flour calls for
two level teaspoonfuls of baking pow
der.
Lastly, if you remember that one
cupful of flour will make four or
dinary-sized mullins, biscuits, gems, or
pancakes, you will see that you can
construct recipe to serve as many
or as few persons as you wish.

Good Spiced Vinegar.

A good spiced vinegar for pickles
generally is made in the following
way: Bruise in q mortar two ounces
of black pepper, one ounce of ginger,
half an ounce of allspice and one
ounce of salt. If hotter pickle is de-
sired, add a half dram of cayenne or
few capsicums. For walnuts add
also one ounce of shallots. Put these
into stone jar with quart of vine
gar and cover them with bladder wet
with the pickle, and over this place
a piece of leather. Set the jar on
stand, trivet or table near the fire for
three days, shaking it tire times
day, then pour it on the walnuts or
other vegetables. 1t is to be used hot
for walnuts, but for cabbage and the
like it should be cold. To save time,
it is usual to simmer the vinegar gent
ly with the spices, which is best done
in an enameled saucepan.

TOO LONG WITHOUT CHANGE
Reason Why Jones Preferred to Own
Automobile Rather Than a

Congressman Charles r. Crisp of
Georgia the other evening when the
talk turned ito automobiles.
Smith was rambling down town one
afternoon when his friend Jones
whizzed along in handsome new au-
tomobile. Came a halt, and then
some conversation.
Il see that you have been getting
another automobile" remarked Smith,
glancing over the machine. Wouldn't
you really prefer a nice horse?"
We'll, hardly!" smiled Jones. Il
would rather burn gasoline than pitch
hay"
But just think persisted friend
Jones, "a horse lives to be twenty or
thirty years old"
yes, know" admitted JONES', "but
that is entirely too long to go without
changing the model. "-Philadelphia

Russian Salad.

Cold vegetables are required for this
salad-potatoes peas, beans and car
rots. Cut these into dice, add little
grated horseradish and a very little
chopped shallot. Then cut up little
cucumber, raw tomatoes and shred
some lettuce. Put all these ingredi
ents in a rather fiat dish, mix the
sauce we'll with them; season with
salt and cayenne pepper, heap the
salad up. Garnish with strips of let.
tuoe and tomato.
For the sauce: The yolks of two
raw eggs, half teaspoonful of dry
mustard, little pepper. salt, and a
pinch of sugar, then drop in some
salad oil, gently stirring all the time
with a wooden spoon until it thickens
to a cream, then add the juice of half
lemon, and little tarragon vinegar.
