To Keep the Blankets Clean.

No matter how careful one is to
cover cold creamed hands with gloves
before retiring. the top of the lanket
is quick to become soiled. But there
is a way to check it's progress along
this line. Bind the blanket with a
piece of heavy cheesecloth or with
muslin a yard in width. This will al
low eighteen inches on each side of the
blanket. IF the material is held on
with slip stitches it can be easily re-
moved when it is necessary to send 1t
to the laundry.

KITCHEN. HINTS.
Helps For Mrs. NewIywed In Her
Struggles to Succeed.

| Everybody does not know that food
in general should not be allowed to
cool in tin, copper or iron. 1t must be
placed while hot in agate, china or
well glazed earthenware.
Green vegetables should be dropped
into boiling water, to which a pinch
of bicarbonate of soda has been added.
Put in salt when the article is half
cooked
If you have covered a pan in which
meat is to be roasted never open it to
baste the meat. Keep it covered from
start to finish. The idea is that the
pans are filled with steam, which pene
trates the tibers of the meat. If desir-
ed to brown the outside leave the cover
off for the first half hour in quick
oven.
The shank bones of mutton, of so lit
tie general value, if well soaked, add to
the richness of gravies and soup stock.
When boiling haricOt beans or dried
limas do not put in the salt until they
are nearly cooked; otherwise they are
apt to split aud come out of their skins.
They should he brought to the boiling
point. the water poured off and fresh
boiling water pourel ove~ them.

What Coy SCOUTING Does.

Moral courage is no less necessary
in times of national peril than physical
courage, and 1t is more largely a prod
uct of training. The boy scout leaders
seek to develop both, but they put
most emphasis on the moral element,
believing that the other is likely to
follow as natural result.-Portland

THE cHAF|NG DISH
Why Not Polish 1t Up For Spring
Breakfasts Now?
AS CHEAP AS GAS BILLS.

There Are Any Number of Menus That
Small Families Enjoy Cooked Right
on the Table-Besides, It's More Fun
Than a Range.
dish relegated to the sideboard as an
almost useless ornament, dragged forth
only for "company?'
If the cha flng dish proves itself a
useful and practical means of preparing
meal for guests, why is it not equal
ly good to cook family meals, especial
ly the lighter supper, tea and luncheon?
Many time whelI the hostess herself
has to prepare meals she would save
herself labor by using the chatting dish
instead Of cooking in the kitchen and
trotting back and forth with the vari-
GUS foods. Perhaps, too, father would
not complain so much that he doesn't
get chance to talk to mother" be-
cause she has to spend so much time
preparing a meal, If mother used the
chatting dish and talked while she
cooked.
The chatting dish is a habit which
more women should acquire. Once ac-
custOmed to the idea of cooking on the
table it becomes just as natural and
easy as cooking in a special place like
the kitchen. The points in favor of
the chafing dish are that it Obviates
the necessity of the hostess rising, that
the food can be served piping hot and
that with its blazer and pan it is one
Of the most sanitary food vessels to use
and clean.
Many articles used in family suppers,
such as creamed Clipped beef, oyster
stew, broi.ed or panned chops, kidneys
and many moro of the dishes having a
creamed sauce. can he prepared fully
as well in the chatting dish as over any
other kind of fuel. Why not use the
chatting dish blazer instead of the ugly
frying pan to cook the hamburg steak
balls for tonight's supper? If the sal
ad and dessert are already prepared
the balls can be made ready, cooked in
the dish at the table and served direct
ly to each plate without even soiling
the platter.
A breakfast of creamed Goldfish can
be managed most effectively in the
blazer, as can bacon, sausages and 9th
er morning dainties. Oysters can be
sauted, fried. with bacon or made into
a stew before our very eyes. The chat
ing dish burner does not smoke and
make an odor, as does the kitchen
range, and if used with a percolator or
toaster there is no reason why an en-
tire meal cannot he made and served
vis-a-vis.
The Expense" some say. But we now
have denatured alcohol at low price.
which is practically the same as gas at
81 thousand. A small ten cent can of
alcohol burns long time-enough GER
tainly for three breakfasts. The chat
ing dish itself is easier to wash than
pots and pans, and it permits most
graceful accomplishment to be added
to the hostess repertoire-thato of table
cookery.
Polish up the chafing dish install it
on the side table instead Of behind
closed doors and use it every day in
the week. Why allow an expensive
piece of equipment to he used once
month? If you have current have con-
nections and plug which will permit
your chafing dish to be operated elec-
trically. 1t will he more fun and cosier
than getting breakfast all by yourself
in the kitchen.

Retailers May Get
Sugar Next Week

After long conference Of the Amer
lean refners' committee yesterday in
the Office Of the sugar division Of the
food administration. III Wall Street, it
was announced that the sugar situation
had improved little. The hope was
expressed that by Monday or Tuesday
the 26,750 tons released by foreign own
ers would be distributed to retailers.
Claus A. Spreckels. president Of the
Federal Sugar Refining Company and
member Of the committee, said the lack
Of definition Of the duties Of the Amer
lean refners' committee was causing a
good deal Of dissatisfaction among the
committee members. He said they
hardly knew what was expected by the
government.
There is some hope that the 26,750
tons of sugar which the sugar division
announced last week had been released
for domestic consumption may be dis
tributed to the trade some time next
week." said Mr.. Spreckels.

Mexico Wants Our Corn

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Mexico needs
one hundred million bushels Of corn
and q substantial addition to her gold
supply to avert an economic crisis.
The Mexicans have found no opposi-
ton to granting permission for the ex-
portation of corn, though 1t has been
made clear that the corn must not be
reexported to ports from where 1t
might be taken to Germany.
In regard to gold exports. the United
States is not inclined to let any consid-
cradle amount of gold go into Mexico
until the Carranza government is ready
TO reciprocate with less restricted ex-
narration of Mexican mine products.

One Wheatless Meal a Day Is Urged

"Eat cornmeal mush and oatmeal.
Don't try to make mullins at home.
The -four wasted in home baking would
feed our army"
This was the bomb dropped upon a
oomplacent group Of food conservation
lists by George S. Ward, head of the
Ward Baking Company, at luncheon
Of the women who are conducting the
house-to-house canvass in the interests
Of the food administration yesterday
at 124 East Fifteenth Street. Women
who prided themselves upon their abil-
ity as good old-fashioned cooks" or
as "up-to-the-minute cooks" who have
seven varieties Of war bread at their
finger tips, were amazed to hear Mr..
Ward denounce the whole theory of
making hot biscuit and mullins.
"There is great amount of waste
In the flour that sticks to the mixing
bowl and the bread board" he said.
Risks Run by Housewives
"Besides. cornbread is very diff
cult thing to make properly. You run
the risk Of spelling eggs, cream and
shortening when you make mullins. if
you are the average housewife. You
know what average means in a city
like New York, where many women
can't even boil a potato. II is much
safer to use your cornmeal and oat-
meal in the simplest form, that Is as
mush, to be eaten as a breakfast food"
The food conservation campaign will
be extended another week il necessary
according to an announcement made by
Arthur Williams, Federal Food Admin
istrator for New York City. One thou
