Summer Economies

There are many household articles
that in the long run are economies in
summer time. The newest paper
towels are among these. After their
advent it was to be expected that pa
per towellng would improve If it
proved at all acceptable, and it GER
tainly did. The latest is not like any
paper towel you ever saw, it is more
like a cloth
1t stands a great amount of rubbing,
and it will not melt on the wet hand.
It is both absorbent and durable and
leaves no lint even after much fric-
ton. No rags or old newspapers are
used in its manufacture. Used in the
home, they save laundry bills, and
they have other uses for none but an
unruly housekeeper will wrap ice in a
newspaper. and they are useful here.
Salad sets and ice cream sets,
spoons and all, now come in trans
parent glazed paper envelopes not
more than SKI inches in size. They
are perfectly antiseptic, and so very
inexpensive that they can be thrown
away after use without causing one
to feel pang They are just the
thing for picnics.
In addition to the table covers and
napkins, entire picnic tableware
(mostly of paper fibers, etc., can be
had at little cost They can be used
on the home table just as well for q
hurried picnic meal occasionally, when
one is packing up to go on a vacation,
or hurrying to get off in time to hear
an evening concert at an amusement
park. After the meal they can be
burnt up in a jiffy.

Kitchen Lore


To enjoy mashed potatoes at their
best, add little baking powder Just
before serving. the proportion being
half a teaspoonful if six people are
to be served.
This makes them so deliciously
white and light that you will never
again serve them without it.
To spread hard butter easily, beat
1t to a cream instead of warming it.,
for in this way it gives 1t better
flavor and prevents any useless
waste.
For a delicious claret punch use one
quart of cold water, one-half cup
raisins two cups sugar, two-lnch
piece stick cinnamon, few shavings
of lemon rind, one and one-half cups
orange juice, one-half cup lemon
Juice, one pint claret wine.
Put raisins in cold water, bring
slowly TO a boiling point and boil
twenty minutes. Strain, add sugar,
cinnamon, lemon rind, and boil five
minutes. Add fruit Juice. cool, strain.
pour in claret and dilute with ice
water.

Victor Dare, the Boy
Detective

It was cold December evening; the
streets seemed to be deserted. In one
of these streets a boy, apparently
fifteen years of age was seen thought
fully walking. Trailing in the foot
steps of his master came a powerful
looking bulldog. The ground was COW
cred with a layer of spotless white
snow, and singing could be heard
through all the windows, for it was
Christmas Eve.
Victor Dare, for this was the boys
name, looked at one of the houses and
saw the number "123" written on the
door. When he saw this number he
ran across the street and sat down
on a stoop opposite the house that
interested him so much. He sat ST
lentiy for a few minutes and took out
watch from his pocket and looked at
it Ten O'clock" he muttered to
himself; e"now is the time" Sud

to prance around. Victor. who was
acquainted with Bins manners. knew
that someone was approaching, and
quickly gained the shelter of a narrow
alley and saw a man going out OF
the house No. 1923. He quickly crossed
the street and by the light of a lamp
he saw a tall, powerful-loohng man
of about thirty-flye years of age. He
began to follow him. "I'n bet dime
that that's my man, after all; wasn't
fooled at ALL" he chuckled to him

Healthy Exercise

Among the many habits of health
full exercise and care there is none
that brings greater satisfaction than
that which keeps the body well nour-
isbed and in normal weight.
It may seem foreign to connect ex-
ercise with nourishment, yet it is a
fact that much of the food we eat is
never assimilated simply because we
do not exercise SO as to keep the d.
gestive organs functioning normally.
The lack of exercise also allows some
tissues to store up an abnormal
amount of fat.
Both conditions are most annoying,
not only because they bring physical
discomfort, but because they mar
ones appearance and are regarded as
signs of age.

CONTINUED Yesterday dining-room bring

dining-room to bring out the dishes,
Eleanor snatched another piece Of
pie, big piece, and ran out on the
back porch and down the steps
with it.
Eleanor ran across the yard to
the wild cherry tree that was down
by the fence. She sat on the ground
behind the tree, where nobody could
see her from the house. And then
she ate every bit of the pie, even
picking up the crumbs that fell in
her lap. Wasn't she naughty?'
Davie grinned.
We'll, l guess she liked the pie,
anyway" said he, what happened
then?''
After all of the pie was gone
Eleanor tiptoed around the house to
the front porch, where her mother
was still sitting with the company.
And she sat there and talked until
her mother told her to go to bed"
Didn't she say she took the pie?"
mo, sir; she didn't mention it,
and when she went to bed she
kissed her mother and the COM

pressively. Its good thing it
was dark on the porch, cause Flea
Tor felt ashamed and turned very
red, but she didn't tell about the
pie even then. She just ran up to

Elmer was 'shamed or not. I want
to hear what happened next"
Dorothy slid from the big willow
chair and stretched herself on the
rug beside her brother. The light
from the CRATE fire danced over
them, making Dorothy think of an
other pretend story. about vol
cano. "I'll tell it when Mary Liz

And you haven't finished this
one. That's just like you" Grossly,
Davie started to get up.
Dorothy pulled his sleeve. 'Im
going to finish 1t right now" she
promised.
Eleanor undressed and jumped
into bed. She didn't say her pray
ers. cause she felt too guilty and
didn't want to tell God about TAX
ing the pie, although she knew He
knew it all the time.
She didn't feel very well, but
after a long time she fell asleep.
And then what do you think hap

1t was a stormy day at Ideal-by-
the Sea, and Dorothy Dear was tell
ing her brother DaVie a story While
they waited for the rain to cease.
The story was about a little girl
named Eleanor, who walked in her
sleep whenever she ate two pieces OF
pie or had two helpings of pudding.
Eleanor had a sister Gertrude, who
used to follow her when she walked
in her sleep.
"She saved her life nearly every
night" Dorothy told Davie, bobbing
her golden head by way of emphasis,
"cause Eleanor would walk out of
the window or over the roof or-or
anywhere. She didn't know it.,
though, you know, cause she was
asleep"
"Jeeminyi" Davies eyes grew
very big. He sat up on the rug and
Rugged his knees close to his chin,
wondering what Dorothy would tell
next.
Dorothy wondered, too. Sometimes
she found It hard to make her stor-
les exciting enough to satisfy Davie.

"Eleanor's mother had company and
they had huckleberry pie for des-

of berries and juice, and the crust
was as light as snowfiakes. And"
"You-yum," said Davie, II wish l
had some"
Don't int'rupt" cried Dorothy
with a dark frown. well, Eleanor
begged for a piece. but her mother
said that pie wasn't good for little
girls at night.
Just little piece coaxed Ell
eanor, and the company said, give
her some! A little piece won't hurt
her.
"Eleanor's mother didn't like this.
She didn't like people to interfere
with the way she brought up her
children" This sentence was
quoted from mother Dear, and Dor
othy spoke it with mother Dear's
very air, lifting her eyebrows and
lowering her voice.
But she didn't want to make a
fuss in front of company, so she

And, then, what do you think
that wicked Eleanor did,"
Dorothy paused, impressively, her
eyes on Davie. who replied:
Did she choke?"
Dorothy flounced impatiently.
II knew you wouldn't guess. No,

on tiptoe to the pantry after dinner,
while her mother and the company
were on the front porch talking.

Ing Follower lingerie collar. Almost
anyone can wear a Y-shaped low
neck. It is the one kind of low neck
which older peole, as well as young
girls, may safely effect. If the collar
is a proper cut, nothing can be more

A Good Fit

Please wear your new corsets When
you are going to be fitted for dress
or costume; and your new Shoes
too, If they happen to have high
heels.
You can hardly, realize how much
difference these things make to the
fit of a costume. And, unless you
make 1t possible for your tailor to al
low for the difference, You are not
giving him a fair chance to do this
work well.
A skirt which is quite the right
length when it hangs over fiat boots
looks ridiculously short when the
wearer gets into a pair of high-heeled
French shoes, which raise her up
full inch.
New corsets often make differ
ence of as much as two or three
inches to the hip or waist measure
fnent And, if they are different
shape from those which We're worn
before, they may change the best
measurement, too.
SO, If you neglect to wear them at
your ''trying-on," please don't blame
the tailor afterwards for the bad fit
of your costume.-Exchange.
