PRIZE FOOD.
Palatable, Economical, Nourishino.

A Nebr. woman has outlined the
prize food In a few words, and that
from personal experience. She
writes:
AFTER our long experience with
Grape-Nuts, cannot say enough In
its favor. We have used this food al.
most continually for seven years.
I'VE sometimes tried other adver-
tised breakfast foods but we invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as the most
palatable, economical and nourishing
of all.

began to use Postum and Grape-Nuts.
I was almost a nervous wreck. was
so irritable l could not sleep nights.
had no interest in life.
After using GrapeNuts a short
time I began to improve and all these
ailments have disappeared and now l
am . well woman. My two children
have been almost raised on Grape
Nuts, which they eat three times a
day.
They are pictures Of health and
have never had the least symptom Of
stomach trouble. even through the
most severe siege Of whooping cough
they could retain Grape Nuts when all
else failed.
"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor
bills, and has been, therefore. most
economical food for Us"

Farm water supplies may be divided
into three classes. In the order Of
their liability to pollution these are
surface supplies. shallow underground
supplies and deep underground sup

and cisterns: both shallow and deep

CHAlNWORK BRACELETS.
Gold and Platinum Ornaments Fash
toned In Basketry Designs.

Chainwork bracelets in which plat-
mum is alternated with gold are h
latest form of wrist ornament for Wo-
men.
They are fashioned in the "basketry"
designs and are quite unlike anything
previously worn. The smartest ones
are those decorated with turquoise and
deep green jade.
, Three pieces of turquoise, shallow
cut stones of oval form, are mounted
in the gold chainwork and match pieces
of jade in the platinum sections.
Each division of metal is about half
an inch in length, and the stones are
cut with the under side oncav and
the upper convex, so that the jewel
rests fiat and smooth against the arm.

HAVING CLEAN GLOVES.
An Easy Way to Keep White Ones In
Immaculate Condition.

To appear in town, either in the
evening or for daylight affairs, with
spotless white gloves has always been
one of the troubles of the suburban
woman. OF course you may say she
need not put on her white gloves till
she arrives at the place for which she
is bound, but it is not always practical
to do this.
One woman has found a way-there
always is Il way out of every predica-
ment-and she has kindly passed the
idea on for the benefit of others. In
the fall she purchases, usually ut bar
gain sales, one or two pairs of white
silk gloves, one-quarter size larger than
the size of gloves she wears; these she
draws over her white kid gloves and
does not remove them until she reach
es her destination. Silk gloves fit snug
ly over the kid ones and do not look so
bulky as cotton ones would. They are
easily stored away in her coat pocket
until needed again.

o THE PARTY.
Pretty Favors That May Be Made by
Yourself at Home.

A few of the really useful favors
which may be provided for a small
party are well worth considering.
For the girls there are the daintiest
possible cardcases Of %pasteboard COW
cred with pale toned japanese Grape
and decorated with a hand painted
flower design that cost very little,
whether made at home or to order.
Then there are the workings in
Bulgarian colors that can be made Of
the blue and red wide ribbons which
have recently gone out of fashion for
sashes and girdles, but which are the
prettiest materials imaginable for fan
cy" things.
Any girl will gladly welcome a ia
0 in the shape of a narrow stemmed,
tall Chinese vase in blue and white or
blue, red, green and black, for it
makes an ideal receptacle for hatpins
when not needed for the single fresh
flower which should be on every dain-
tily equipped dressing table.
1t is also 4 good idea to give single
teacups and saucers in oriental ware,
because nearly every girl is now col

THE FOURTH OF JULY HOSTESS
In Decorations Be Careful That Colors
Do Not Clash.

A charming way to distribute the
favors on the Fourth Of July, particu-
larly at a children's party, is by means
of an arrangement similar to a Jack
Horner pie. On this day, however,
the pie" may be supplanted by Il
drum, from the top of which the red,
white and blue satin ribbons attached
to the mysterious contents depend, or
q paper cannon may be used to con-
ceal the favOrs. In this case the rib
bons will depend from the muzzle Of
the cannon. Other suitable forms for
these "pies' are k%napsacks and cooked
hats.
If the Fourth Of July luncheon is to
be held on a porch or in a which
lends itself to additional decoration,
there are many varieties of paper gar
lands and strings of flags that may be
used. Some of these are very graceful.
but care must be taken in their use to
avoid a sense of overdecOratiOn. While
nothing can be more attractive than Il
cleverly and carefully planned arrange
ment of the national colors, almost
nothing can be more tawdry and rest
less than the same cOlors exaggerated
ly used. In this connection a word of
warning should be given about being
sure that in all the various decorations
the same shades of red and blue must
be used.
The usual silver, glass and china ware
can be used in setting the table, but
care must be taken to avoid Il clash in
color between the china decoration and

Removing Hardwood Furniture.

Hardwood furniture, contrary to pop
ular belief, may be cleaned very nicely
at home if the housewife cares to take
the pains. A solution of two heaping
tablespoonfuls of salsoda to a quart OF
warm water must be made first. Then
work may be begun on the furniture.
The principal thing to remember in
cleaning hard wood is that success is
to be found only in cleaning a small
piece at a time and doing the work
rapidly.
The mixture must be put on with a
we'll soaped toothbrush. The place
must then be washed Immediately with
cold water and dried with a soft cloth.
When one whole chair has been COM
pleted it should be rubbed with a mix
ture of two-thirds raw oil and one
third turpentine, with a little salt.

WHY a limpet Sticks.

Every one is familiar with the say
ing ito stick like a limpet," but there
are not so many who know how it is
that a limpet is able to stick as it does
to the rocks upon which it passes it's
existence. The creature is able by
means of the central portion of its
body, which can be raised independ-
emily Of the edge or frill which sur
rounds it, to create a vacuum, much
in the same way that a piece of soft,
wet leather can be made to adhere to
a smooth surface by pressing out all
the air. Thus the so called strength
of the limpet is largely due to atmos-
pheric pressure.

COOKING FOR.THE ILL.
How to Prepare Mutton Broth For a
Sick Child.

SP~'S
Sick Child.
Very often a doctor calls for mutton
broth for q sick child. This must be
made daily and very carefully by
the mother or nurse unless the cook
happens to be familiar with the proc
ess, as not only must the meat be
perfectly fresh, but it needs special
cooking. The easiest way to make 1t
is to procure a pound Of the neck of
the young mutton. Tell the butcher
what it is for, and he will know what
to give you if he is reliable. 1t should
be fresh cut and include the bones.
but must not look stale or dark or
have Il heavy odor.
Put this in a quart glass preserving
jar filled nearly to the top with cold
water with Il good sized pinch of salt.
Put on the lid Of the jar and stand it
in an ordinary iron pot about half full
Of cold water and place the whole
back on the stove, where it can come
to a slow boil. Let the water in the
pot simmer gently for three hours, re-
plenishing it as it cooks away. This
will steep the contents of the glass
lar. Do not allow it to cook hard, and
do not handle it roughly or stand 1T on
q stone or other cold surface when at
length it is ready to come off the fire,
for any one Of these things will crack
the jar and spoil the contents.
Remove the lid from the jar and
| strain the contents into a bowl to cool.
| When cool, cover and place in the re-
| frigerator for several hours until all
| the fat has risen. Skim the fat of
carefully and heat the broth as need
| ed. This amount will make two cup
| fuls, which will probably be sufficient
for one day.
