Eggless Pumpkin Pie.

Cook and mash the pumpkin, squeeze
through colander and dry out in oven.
To one quart of sifted pumpkin add
three cups of boiling milk. Sweeten
with two-thirds cup of molasses and
one-half cup of brown sugar, add half
teaspoon of salt, half teaspoon of gin
ger, little vanilla. Turn into tin lined
with good rich crust and put into hot
oven. Allow fire to be brisk for five
minutes, then lower heat and bake
slowly one hour. The boiling milk
causes the pumpkin to swell in baking,
so that it is as light as if eggs had been
used.

Pumpkin Preserves.

Choose firm, sweet pumpkin, peel and
seed and cut into slices. To each pound
of pumpkin allow one pound of sugar,
and one teacup of lemon juice Put
slices of pumpkin in deep dish in lay
ers with sugar sprinkled between each
layer and pour lemon juice on top. Let
stand two days. Then add enc cup of
water to each three pounds of sugar
used; boil all together until the pun
pkin is tender. Let it stand for three
days, then drain off syrup, add one
ounce of ginger root and boil down
until thick syrup; skin and turn hot
over pumpkin. Put into jars and seal.
Pumpkin possesses one peculiar
quality 1t absorbs and retains the
favor of whatever it is cooked with. If
stewed with apples it tastes exactly
like them. This combination may be
used to advantage in buildings, cakes
or tarts.

A WARNING TO many
Some Interesting Facts About Kidney
Troubles

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condi-
ton of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases Of
serious illness, makes a chemical anal
.ysis of the patients urine. He knows
that unless the kidneys are doing their
work properly, the other organs can
not readily be brought back to health
and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease which is
really an advanced form of kidney
trouble, caused nearly ten thousand
deaths in 1913, in the state of New
York alone. Therefore, it behooves Us
to pay more attention to the health OF
these most important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a kidney
remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder
Remedy.
The mild and healing influence Of
this preparation, in most cases, is soon
realized, according to sworn state
ments and verified testimony OF those
who have used the remedy.
