ful of sugar, pour cupful of hot wa
ter over the mixture and boil until a
rich sirup results. Keep this in n jar
in the ice chest and when wishing to
serve it, tablespoonful of the sirup
is stirred into a glass of cold milk.
Cocoa is liked by some with very
little vanilla flavor and a teaspoonful
of cornstarch to give 1t more richness.
A pinch of cinnamon or cloves is an
other addition liked by some. Chill
the cocoa, mix it with sugar and
cream and serve with whipped cream
on top.
Fruit Mint Juep.-Boil three pints
of water and one and half pounds
of sugar ten minutes. Remove from
the heat and add a packed cupful of
mint leaves. Cover and let stand ten
minutes. Strain through two thick
nesses of cheesecloth and cool. Strain
the juice of u lemons, add one and a
half cupfuls each of orange and straw
berry juice and turn into the mint
sirup; let blend at least an hour.
When ready to serve pour quart OF
charged water over a large piece of Ice
in the punchbowl, then turn in the
mint julep. Sprigs of mint and few
slices of fresh strawberries make
pretty addition to the bowl.
The secret of fine-havored iced tea
is to make it fresh. Draw the tea
about three minutes, then pour it over
ice and let stand in Clipped ice until
chilled. Serve by filling glasses one
third full of shaved ice and top with
a bit of lemon. Let each person sweet
en- his own tea.
Ginqerade.-This is a drink which
should be used as it is not only pal
atable but economical. Stir table
spoonful of ginger with four of sugar,
add a pint of chilled water and serve
when settled. Some like dash Of
vinegar, others a little molasses in
stead of sugar for sweetening. This
is an old-fashioned harvest drink.
Oranaeade.-For this simple drink
allow a pint Of cold water for each
pint of orange juice with the juice OF
one lemon. Add sugar to taste and
stand near the ice until ready to serve.
At serving time beat an egg very light
and pour the liquid over it. Serve at
once.

urqes Miners Not to Strike.

Denver.-Governor Julius c. Gunter
July 7th issued a proclamation ad-
dressed to the miners In the Leadville
district calling upon them not to
strike, pending adjustments of their
dispute with the operators in that dis

A coffee can is a fine receptacle for
crisping lettuce or parsley. as 1t Is
easier to handle from a large-mouthed
receptacle.
This is the season for mushrooms
and they may be found in old pastures
or woods in abundance, affording deli
cious food at little cost.
Raspberries and strawberries keep
better when spread out on platter
or plate, in fact twice as long as when
heaped in a dish the weight of the
berries crush and spoil them.
Oatmeal Cookies-Take two cupfuls
of fine or ground oatmeal which has
been Drowned, two cupfuls of flour,
one egg, half cupful of sour milk
and a half teaspoonful of soda, half
cupful of shortening and cupful of

from teaspoon on well-greased
baking pan.
Rhubarb Is delicious baked, using
a cupful of sugar to a pint of finely
cut rhubarb Bake in an earthen dish
until jellylike in consistency.
Rhubarb Cup Pudding.-Put tea
spoonful of sweetened. stewed rhubarb
into a buttered cup. Pour boiling wa
ter on a pint of bread crumbs and let
them soak until soft and then drain.
Add a well beaten egg to the crumbs,
a tablespoonful of sugar and little
nutmeg. Turn this over the rhubarb
in the cups and bake. Add cupful
of chopped peanuts that have been
carefully cleaned from the little brown
husk, to well cooked corn mush and
mold in a small bread pan to cut In
slices to fry. Other nuts such as hick-
ory or walnut meats may be added,
but the peanuts are so common that
they are always In the market.

Reduction Asked in Use of Meat.

Washington-To conserve the ma.
tion's meat supply each person in the
United States is asked by the food ad-
ministration to cut down by at least
one ounce the amount of meat eaten
each day. Recent studies, it is stated.
showed the average daily per capita
consumption is nearly one-third Of a
pound of beef and one-fifth of a pound
of pork. The adoption of this sugges-
ton will, it is believed, relieve the
demands of the armies and also leave
a larger supply for the allies.

TWO ACCIDENTS
ON LOCKWOOD HILL

Lockwood hill was the scene of two
accidents Saturday, the first occurring in
the morning when A. j. hobitaille left
his delivery truck near the top Of the
hill in charge of some boys. They tried
to run the machine and 1t went down
over the hill and crashed into and
through the fence surrounding the Lock-
wood property, breaking in a section of
the fence and badly damaging the front
of the machine. Neither of the boys was
injured.
The second accident occurred when
man from Albion, driving pair of heavy
horses attached to a load of wood, start
ed to make the turn from Bridge street
onto Water street. The pole Of the wagon
broke off about three feet from the cross
bar, leaving a sharp point which badly
lacerated the side OF one Of the horses
before the outfit could be stopped. The
animal was removed to the stable of a
local veterinarian where 1t is expected the
life OF the horse will be saved, although
badly injured.
