GIVE YOUR MACHINE SUNSHINE.
VIII. Prevent It ~RunnIns Hard" and
Also Add Much Time to Ies
Length Of Usefulness

! am q visiting dressmaker, said q
women recently, and In this capacity
90 from house to house. In my time
have worked, Of course, at sewing ma
chimes without numher. Ny verdict
is that not one in q hundred women
knows what causes the machine to
run hard" or how to remedy it.
The first idea Of most women In
whose homes l find entry is to oil the
machines with kerosene. and-vell,
this treatment does ease them for q
few hours.
o But the applying Of kerosene is by
no means q happy thought for ma
chine oil and kerosene In combination
make a paste, which soon results in a
friction that is harmful for the con-
plicated parts Of the machinery.
My advice to the unknowing is that
she should move her machine on a
sunny day to a window and open II.
The suns rays cant be too warm.
Then let her fill her oil can with clean
machine oil and place 1t in a pan Of
water on the stove until 1t beats to
boiling point. This arrangement is
both safe and easy. Now the already
warmed machine should be treated
with hot oil. Every point, from the
bobbin winder to the foot should be
carefully oiled.
After the superfuous oil has beer
wiped off the machine will keep ir
good condition for six months.

city Is to Have Them Cooked
/ la Creole style.

Here are some shrimp dishes that
would prove acceptable for luncheon
and supper:
Shrimp salad can be made In q good
many ways, and all Of them are good.
The Shrimps can be broken in fakes
and mixed with an equal portion Of
Aard-boiled eggs that have been put
through q .ricer. They then can be
dressed either with mayonnaise or
With French dressing. lust the shrimp
alone can be served on lettuce with
. other kind Of dressing.
Another good salad calls for a cup
OF. shrimps, cut in small pieces; half
. cup Of celery hearts diced small.
and seasoning Of peper and salt.
These ingredients should be mixed
with half cupful Of mayonnaise and
placed in bed Of white lettuce leaves.
% Garnish this salad with 'eighths Of
= hard-boiled eggs, capers and olives.
Another good combination is
shrimps and, chilled, sliced tomatoes,
served with mayonnaise on lettuces
For salad, shrimps. should be chilled
. through and thoroughly dry: Any i'm
perfect ones, Of course, should be dis
carded5 and the little dark vein that
is sometimes noticeable in the shrimp
can be. removed for a salad Of the
finest quality.
Croustades Of shrimps and nee are
delicious The croustades, or shells,
:, can be made from boiled riG8 sea-
;. Soned with salt and pepper, and heat
ed in G-double boiler with q beaten
egg, and, II necessary for moistening
q little cream. This mixture should
b formed into little cases. 1t can
b nodded I'm teacups by patting II
around the sides Of the cups.
The shrimp filling Is made from
white sauce, made with a tablespoon
Q ful Of butter, the same amount of -four
= and cuptul Of milk cooked smooth
the beaten yolks of two eggs and hall
. cup Of shrimps pounded to a paste
STR over the fire until the eggs thick
q, and pour In the rice cases. The
same filling can be put In pate shells
This u the way to cook shrimps n
the creole style: Fry half an onior
and a Glove Of garlic, chopped. in foul
tAblespoonfulS of, butter, but do moi
brown them Then add q cup! o.
canned or other cooked shrimps, a, cuI
Of canned tomatoes, five tablespoon
fuls Of French peas and salt and rec
pepper to taste. Cook over hot wa
ter for Is minutes, in q double boiler
or in a chafng dish.
Dunbar sbrimps are nade in thit
way: Into the blazer of chafng dist
or the top part of a double boiler pui
q dash of salt, some cayenne pepper
two scant teaspoonfuls of sauce agC
two cups Of cream-the thicker thu

boiled eggs. chopped fine, and tw'
cups of shrimps. Let the mixtur
reach the boiling point an8 serve a
once. q
. Shrimps can also be used to gal
lnish many vegetable salads. The
give just the right pungency an
character to salads that otherwis
might somewhat lack character an

stance, can be stuffed with celery an

ATTEMPT TO SMUGGLE
BULLETS TO MEXICANS
IN MILKMENS CANS

VERA CRUZ, May 25.-An attempt
to smuggle arms and munitions of war
10 the Mexicans in Vera Cruz was
balked today when two milkmen were
halted by the American outposts and
searched In their cans were found a
large number OF cartridges. This
convinced the American officers that
a plot had been formed by the Mexi-
cans in the city to attack the United
States at the same time that the fed
erals move agains the port.
The notification sent TO Washington
by the Mexican government that il
viii be necessary to mass troops before
Vera Cruz in order TO resist rebel at
tacks is believed here to be a subter-
fuge to strengthen the forces of
Huerta for an attack on the city with
out seeming to violate the truce be-
tween Mexico and the United States.
Gen. Fernando Trucy Aubert. who
has been held prisoner in the Santi-
ago penitentiary at Mexico City for
several weeks after being arrested for
failing TO go to the aid OF the fed
erals at TOrreOn. is reported to have
been executed by order Of Pres.
Huerta.
Mexicans who refuse 10 enlist in
the federal army are being executed
as traitors. Jose Quintero, a wealthy
resident at TERRA Blanca, hid when
ordered TO serve in the army. but was
captured and shot.

claims filed against it for loss of life
