WHEN THINGS COME FROM MAR

Real waste can often be prevented
If food is properly cared for as soon
as it comes from the market. For
its early treatment when it reaches its
destination keeps it from deteriorat-
ing quickly.
Here are some suggestions about
the treatment Of various sorts Of
food whep they enter your back door.
Plunge sweetbreads Immediately in
to cold water and soak them for an
hour or two. Then parboil them for
ten or fifteen minutes. They can then
safely be slowed away in the retriger-
ator for several hours, until you Wish
to use them.
Remove all decayed leaves from let
tuce, wash it quickly in cold water
and then, Of you are in hurry, place
it rs It is on the ice. Later 1t can be
more carefully washed, pulled to
pieces. and returned to the ice in
cloth.
Wipe off all meat with a. damp cloth
and place it Immediately in the refrtg'
orator. -
Especially in warm weather, dress
chickens or other fowl and wash them
with cold water, then place them in the
refrigerator. Z
If berries appear slightly moist, pour
them Immediately out on big sheet
board of nenameled baking pan.
Let them dry thoroughly. This often
prevents mildew and softening. Some
people advocate serving berries with.
out washing, but it is safer to wash
them. Sowash Strawberries and 9th.
err berries just before serving, then
remove the hulls, and drain on wire
sieve. II they are washed long before
serving and stand damp they often
mildew and soften. NJ
Cut off beet tops and the tough
green tops Of celery and any other
parts of vegetables that may be safely
removed and are useless. This makes
it easier to pack vegetables away.
Shell peas Immediately IL the pods
look soft or at all decayed. Some.
times perfectly firm peas are inside
such pods. Then wash the peas
quickly, let them drain dry, and store
in the refrigerator until needed. II
the pods are crisp and perfect, it is
better to leave the peas In them until
shortly before they are needed, as
they are thus kept moist and sweet.
II milk Is delivered in bottles, place
them Immediately on Ice, after letting
the cold water run over the outside
to remove the dust. II the milk is
delivered from an open can, have 1t
poured into enamel dishes that have
been scalded, cover them with sheets
of cheese cloth that have been boiled.
and place Immediately on ice. Or else
have bottles to hold the milk in your
refrigerator, even II it is delivered
from can.

stomach and reduce rather than add
to the weight.
An orange always quenches the
thirst, and in travelling It Is much
safer to eat an orange than to drink
stale water. A hot orangeade before
going to bed on cold night warns
the entire body and soothes the ner'
vous system.
The peel of an orange thrown into
a hot tub softens the water to the ex'
tent that the whole body benefits by
It. For cleansing the face soak a Dill
of orange peel in basin OF warm
water, then go carefully over the face
with the peel; afterward rinse in the
water In which the peel was soaked.
1t is far more cleansing than cold
cream and never promotes the growth
of hair. ~

Apple, the Beautifier.

"An apple day keeps the doctor
away,".is an old. adage, and the same
may be said of the orange, as 1t has
an equally fine effect on the system.
II one is inclined to acidity of the
stomach, the Juice of an orange. is a
counter-irritant. II the stomach Is
weak. the juice Of an orange before
breakfast is an excellent tonic for the
entire day. If one is dieting to reduce
one or two oranges eaten at noon

WHERE IS HE?
TRADE LARK REGISTERED ssss

Sing Sing, under ancient re- gime, was a smothered hell. De- spite the most hideously depres- sive measures, vice fourished, keepers were bribed, dope was smuggled in, prisoners escaped, rebellion smoldered and murder occasionally broke out. Cunning was met with cunning, force with force. All the power of the state could not keep order.
 A mollycoddle and sentimental ist came along and substituted the law of love for the law of force, the rule of right for the rule of might. At once the out casts and depraved were trans formed from beasts into men. vice withered, order was main tained, and for the first time the germ of self-respect and good citizenship found soil in which to grow. Sing Sing was transform ed and transfgured.
