The Woman's Medicine Has
Proved Its Worth.

When Lydia Z. Pinkhara's remedies
were first introduced, their curative
powers were doubted and had to be
proved. But the proof came, and grad.

whole country. Now that hundreds of
thousands Of women have experienced
the most beneficial effects from the use
of these medicines, their value has be-
come generally recognized, and Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
the standard medicine for women.
The following letter is only one of
the thousands on file in the Pinkham
Office, at Lynn, Mass, proving that

FOR IDEAL CLUB SANDWICH
Hostessz VIII Find Luncheon Delleaoy
Easy e: Prepare II she:NiiIl Fol-
low These instructions. $780,.

The club sandwich forms an ideal
quick luncheon, with cup of choco-
late or tea. It is a delicious after
theater tidbit. Moreover, it is easy
20 make in the dining room, with the
nd Of chatting dish and electric
toaster. 1t: has so many varieties that
it can be served frequently without be-
coming mOnOtOnOus.
To begin with, its foundation is a
slice Of hot buttered toast at the bot
tom and another at the top. Between
these two slices there must be lettuce
and mayonnaise and boiled or fried
bacon. Besides these ingredients many
other things can be used.
Perhaps what one may call the con-
ventiOnal club sandwich contains on
the foundation slice of toast a crisp
piece Of lettuce, spoonful of thick
mayonnaise, slice of chicken breast,
two crisp slices Of bacon, slice Of
tomato, more lettuce and mayonnaise,
and the cover Of toast.
Instead Of the tomato slice Of to-
nato jelly may be used, or some shreds
# sweet green or red pepper, or three
| slices Of cucumber, or sliced sweet
gherkins or sliced stuffed olives may
be used. !
Or else over the toast may be spread
mixture Of chopped celery and may.
onnaise or chopped sweet pepper and
| mayonnaise or chopped olives and may
0nnaise.
Instead Of the chicken one may use
sliced tongue or sliced veal or sliced
lamb.
A thin silver of broiled boiled ham
may be substituted for the bacon.
Fish pastes may also be used in
stead of the chicken, with or without
the bacon. Sardines, boned and skim
ned and rubbed to paste with mayon-
naise, are good.
The lower slice of. toast may be
spread with thin coating Of pate de
foie gras, then the chicken, bacon and
mayonnaise can be added, then lettuce,
and the top slice Of toast-with or
without the slice of tomato.

HAVE SYSTEM IN KITCHEN
Writer Tells Of Scheme by Which She
Has Lessened Work-cieanino tho
Oven Shelves.

I have great deal of baking to do
IN cooking day, but find that much
time can be saved by making my bread
first. While the bread is baking
make pie crust. I then set the pie
crust aside and make my cake, and
then finish the pies. While the cake
and pies are baking I make my dough-
nuts. Consequently, while the dough-
nuts are frying my pies and cakes are
baking, with the result that all my
days cooking is finished at one time.
Oven shelves should be regularly re-
moved from the oven or gas stove and
scraped with an old blunt knife. Rub
them with paper and wash thoroughly
with fairly hot, strong soda water be-
fore they are put back into the oven
or stove to dry.-Delineator.

Care Of Milk.

Care OF milk, important for all, is a
vital necessity in a home where there
are children. 1t is absolutely essential
to the safety Of babes. No intelligent
mother will leave to an ordinary SER
want the task of caring for or prepar-
ing the MIX for her baby. Mothers of
small children should get, from their
own physicians, explicit directions for
the proper handling of milk and for
cleaning and sterilizing nursing bot
ties. Pamphlets on infant feeding may
be obtained fl IN the municipal milk
stations or health officers. Milk for
babies cannot be kept too cold, and too
much care cannot be given to keeping
1t clean and covered.
