WASHINGTON. July 12.-Consid- eration of the German reply to the American note on submarine warfare overshadowed all else in the work of the state department officials Secretary Lansing spent most of his time in preparing data and opinions for the next communication to be sent to Germany and he indicated that very probably he would not go to Cornish but that the president would return here at the end of the week.
 The situation is described in off cial quarters as critical and there is no concealment of the fact that re- latio1s with Germany and the United States have become more strained than at any time in their history. The next American note is expected to be short and much more specific and positive than any yet sent
 High officials said the policy of the American government will be care fully worked out, and that in order to meet the situation firmly the ut most deliberation is required. This was given out in order that delay of possibly a week or more in pre- pairing an answer might not be mis- interpreted as meaning that the Unit ed States intended in any way to re- cede from the pos ti5n i has taken in the two notes already sent to Per lin.
 There was much informal discussion among the officials of the contents of the German reply In their opinion there was an evasion of the Ameri can argument in the German note and that this has nagrowed the field Of negotiations so that the next com nun cation from the United States

SOME DON'Ts FOR PRESERVING DAY

Don't attempt to put up anything by
suesswork. Preserves, jellies and
pickles all require exact measurements
to be perfect. Every fruit needs its
own time for cooking. Get preserv-
ing and picking book and follow the
directions to T. Or, better still, ask
the good housekeepers you know for
their recipes and write them down
word for word.
Don't think that you can put up a

enced you are. There is a deal Of
standing to do, and interest flags
when the body is weary. Much good
fruit is spoiled on preserving and can

the housekeeper had reached the list
less and exhausted stage.
Don't think that you can be eco
nomical with sugar when preserves and
jellies are in hand, for you will find
this great mistake. In the first place,
fruit stinted of sweetness seldom

taste. Jelly will not "jell' If the fruit
juice and sugar are not measured ex-
actly according to directions. But
sometimes the jellying process is de-
layed for some reason or other even
when there is enough sugar. In this
event put the jelly in the sunshine for
little while, where the action of the
bright light will produce the desired
change.
Don't think that you can be entirely
successful in all your canning and
only makeshift tools. Proper imple-
ments save time, and they are more
likely to bring success. The utensils
needed for a good batch of work are
dried jars, several jelly bass-half of

Don't think that because you haven't

but the water must never come up to

DALNTIES WITH
COFFEE FLAVOR

Coffee is q flavor always at the call
OF the cook, and one that can be re-
lied on when fruits fail. The medici-
nal qualities of coffee are due to its
aromatic essential oiI-and it is that.
Of course, which gives the flavor. As
the roasting brings out the flavor of
the oil, the roasting should be care
fully done. When using coffee for
havoring make it by percolating boil
ing water through the freshly ground
beans.
COFFEE JELLY.-Soak an ounce of
gelatin in a cup OF cold water and dis
solve in three cups Of boiling water.
Add two cups of sugar and two of
strong coffee. and strain into a mold.
Harden and serve with whipped cream,
garnished with macaroons.

coffee and two tablespoonfuls OF sugar
together. and slowly pour II over two
egg yolks, stirring all the time. Strain
when cold and add two cups OF whip

Serve in tall glasses.
COFFEE ICING.-Melt two cups Of
sugar and boil until II forms a string
from the spoon. stand the saucepan in
a dish OF cold water until the sugar
begins to form on the sides. and then

Preserving Fruit.

A letter before me asks: Gould you
send me directions for preserving fruit
raw? An acid Is sprinkled on the tops
Of the bottles. I have forgotten the
name. How do you consider It as re-
CARDS wholesomeness? Also, under
stand, custards. unless chilled and eaten
Immediately. are considered poisonous
in hot weather. Does this apply to
salad dressings made with both eggs
and milk, or does the vinegar change
the food?''
Discussing these questions with an
expert chemist on foods employed by
i the government. I was told that the
method of preserving by the use OF
acids was dangerous. that fruit so pre-
served was a slow poison. This was
proved by demonstration. A family
fed on the fruits preserved by acids
suffered from indigestion and Its strain
Of Ills. which disappeared when such
food was discontinued. Asking why
people preferred to use the acid 1 was
told that those women who did SO used
the method either through Ignorance
or else laziness. The acid meant a
substitute for time and trouble.
I also learned that it was mistake
to preserve raw fruits without sugar
had long considered it 80, but had
never proved it. 1t has always seemed
to me that less sugar would be neces-
sary to sweeten the fruit If some of II
were dissolved In the water used for
preserving than II sprinkled over the
fruit when opened for eating. The
fruit would be absorbing the sugar
while lying in the bottles. 1t was
proved it required more sugar to
sweeten the fruit after preserving, also
that the unsweetened fruit lacked the
flavor of the sweetened preserve
The raw fruit should be packed into
bottles. A boiling strip made from
sugar and water in the proportion of a
tablespoonful of the former to a pint
Of the latter is poured over entirely
filling the jar, which is sealed imme-
diately. In Europe many housewives
leave a small space at the top OF the
bottle and fill 1t with pure olive oil to
exclude the air.
Custards are wholesome in warm

necessary to eat it Immediately after

not a preservative.
