PUMPKIN CUSTARDS
THAT ARE REAL THING

There are pumpkin custards and pumpkin
custards Here are the recipes for two.
the quality of which was so undeniable the
judges of the Rchlandtown Grange contest
awarded the makers. Mrs. Jacob NJ. Lands,
of Quakertown. Pa. and Mrs. l. II. Baum,
of Richlandtown. prizes. Then to manifest
faith in their wise decision, the judges ate
UP all the custard.
The recipes were sent to the EVENING
LEDGER upon request Of the Editor of the
Woman's Page, who acted on the suggestion
Of a mere man reader in wilmington that
the ladies be asked for their secret"
Mrs. Baums recipe follows: One cupful
of pumpkin, one tablespoonful of flour. one
tablespoonful of molasses two eggs and
five or six tablespoonfuls of cream, or II
cream is not used. then three eggs. sugar
to taste and about a pint of milk. This
makes one large deep custard, the top OF
which is sprinkled with cinnamon.
Mrs. Llndis's formula reads: Boil
pumpkins WELL pour them through colan-
der and drain off the water, then press
through colander or fruit press. Then take
three tablespoonfuls of pumpkin, one and
half tablespoonfuls of -four half pint
OF milk. three tablespoonfuls of sugar the
yolk of one egg and nutmeg to flavor.
Mix all we'll together, add the white of one
egg we'll beaten and bake with bottom
crust
Mrs. Lands qualities her recipe with the
remark that she gives 1t as nearly correct
as possible but that she uses her own
judgment as to flavor and sweetness.

Movies for Little Girl Twelve

Dear Madam have noticed lately that YOU
have answered several questions about children,

you may help me as you have helped others. My
little Girl. twelve years OF age. coaXes nearly
every night 10 let her 20 to the movies with
some other little girls She even stays in in the
afternoon sometimes to do her lessons that
She can go out at night. DO you think it is all
right for her to 80, say, three times week?
MOTHER.
Three times a week is too many for a
little girl of twelve years to go to the
movies, | don't think it wise for her to go
at all in the nighttime without having an
older person with her Why not compromise
and II 1t be possible have her father or your
self take her once or twice a week on the
condition that she does not tease to go any
of the rest of the time? You will then have
the chance to pick out the sort of pictures
II will be best for her to see. 1t Is decidedly
a mistake for the little girl to stay out Of
the sun and fresh air in the afternoon to
study that the evening be saved for
movies. Keep her outdoors as much as
possible. She is just little girl who does
not know what Is best for her Don't forget
this and use your own judgment when It
comes to bedtime hours and fresh air.

Treatment for GullstOnes

TTNHE only method Of removing gallstones
l. is by means of surgery. A radical
operation may be now performed with
little risk, although twenty-five years ago
this operation was rightfully regarded as
very hazardous. An operation Is not neces-
sary, however, in every case of gallstones,
as post-mortem statistics show that gall
stones are found after death In about one
tenth of all cases examined. from which
it appears that the great majority Of peo-
pie have gallstones without being conscious
of their presence. Gallstones are due to
infection and are probably one of the many
consequences of chronic constipation.
Women suffer more from constipation
than do men, and are more likely to have
gallstones. For temporary relief a hot bath
and lamentations over the region of the
gall bladder and large hot enema, II neces-
sary, are very useful measures.
1t is quite possible tnat one who has
once had gallstones and has completely
recovered may by exercising due care, avoid
recurrence. Meats of all sorts should be
discarded also tea and coffee. In other
words. thoroughly antitoxic dietary must
be adopted. Thorough mastication of the
food is essential, first pointed out by
-Beaumetz nearly twenty-five years
ago. Gallstones are a protective measure.
the purpose Of their formation being to
enclose the offending germs. Germs are
always found in the center Of gallstones.
Water drinking is an excellent means Of
combating galstones. Four or five pints
Of water should be taken daily. The best
time for taking water is half an hour be-
fore meals and between meals, beginning
two hours after eating. No harm is done
by taking small quantities of water with
meals, half glassful to a glassful. pro-

No Need to Go Hungry

some and palatable, and corn bread
is an excellent substitute for wheat.
BY using these foods freely you will
get along as we'll or better than you
ever did and at the same time will
leave plenty to send to the boys "over
there"
Fats are fuel for the soldiers and
should be saved wherever possible.
Vegetable oils will do just as we'll in
the household. Save sugar, fol. it is
needed in the army. Never leave
any sugar in the bottom of your cup.
If the men and women of the
United States will observe these
simple rules they will be doing bit

RUSSIANS SHOWING
MORE RESISTANCE

London, July 25.--Signs Of a halt in
the Russian retreat in Eastern Galicia
before the advancing Austro-German
armies are largely wanting, but indica.
tons of stronger resistance in some
sectors are cropping out. The Rus
sian generals undoubtedly are doing
their utmost to bring their men to a
realization of the necessity of implicit
obedience and the present plight Of
certain sections of the Muscovite ar
mics because of laxness in discipline
can hardly help serving as an object
lesson.
The resisting powers Of the Rus
slams are admitted by Berlin to be
strongly in evidence south of the
Brzesany line and it is said here that
such fighting capacities as the Rus.
SLAMS possess need to be exercised to
the limit.
There has been notable activity Of
late by both the British and French
artillery. The situation on the Aisne
front appears to show that the crown
prince fears renewal of the French
offensive there, his countless attacks
being considered in many quarters an
attempt to forestall it. On the Brit.
isl front the intense aerial and artil-
lery activity presage important move

Iron for the Future.

That iron is the very basis of our In.
8tlstri;l civilization will be admitted
by the thoughtful, and many of our
grsAest supplies Of iron ore, are be.
hE rapidly depleted because of the in.
creased per capita consumption of iron
the world over, an increase which is
destined to be greater in the future
when the races in Asia and Africa in.
crease their consumption of iron.
These conditions of increasing con.
sumption of and decreasing reserves
have often in the past, particularly
about the beginning of this century,
says J. Il. Johnson in Metallurgicul
and Chemical Engineering, been used
to create scare, on the ground that
our supplies of disable ore were being
so rapidly depleted that their exhaus.
ton would occur within two or three
generations. This is preposterous
pointSof view, because as we lower
the percentage of iron ore in the rock,
which we call "ore," the quantity of
such ore increases at rate out of all
proportion to the decrease in iron
content, and as we use leaner and
ieaner ores technical improvements
will he made which will minimize any
tendency to increased cost of produc.
ton. The same thing has happened in
gold. silver, copper and other ores, and
today COPPER ores are being worked
with only Is per cent of copper in
them.
