POTATO STARCH.
Just How to Make 1t From Unmarked
able Spuds.

Just How to Make 1t From Unmarked
able Spuds.
Bruised and otherwise unmarketable
potatoes may be used in making potato
starch, a very desirable and healthful
food.
Potato starch can be used In many
ways for food purpose-in making SAL
ads. buildings. milk dishes, etc. In
every potato section of the country
thousands Of bushels of potatoes are
wasted every year which could just as
well be utilized in making potato
starch.
Use plenty of water and a vegetable
scrubbing brush in washing the pota-
toes. Seat yourself in a convenient po-
sition with a vessel containing potatoes
at one side and an empty vessel for the
gratings on the other. Place a dish
pan with CRATER on a low table and,
without removing the skins, CRATE your
potatoes by hand or run them through
the sausage grinder. Empty gratings
into second tub or vessel.
Over the gratings pour clean water.
Stir well. so as to saturate every par
ticle of the potatoes. Allow to stand
for a little time and then remoye the
Feelings and other floating material
from the top of the water. Stir again,
add a little more clear water and allow
the same to stand for several hours or
overnight. The starch granules will
settle to the bottom. and all pulp and
potato skins will rise to the top of the
water or settle on top ofS the starch
granules. Remove the water carefully,
also the pulp and skins. Scrape the
dark coat off the top of the starch for
nation, being careful not to remove
any of the starch.
A second time pour fresh clean water
over the starch. Stir thoroughly. AL
low to stand for several hours or over
night. Remove water and pulp as be-
fore and add another application of
water. Continue this as often as nee
essary to render your starch perfectly
white and free, not only from the pulp,
but from all sand or sediment of any
kind which is not pure starch.
This operation a be abbreviated by
rinsing the first time and then strain
ing the pulp, starch and water through
c~heesecloth or cloth of finer MESH

Be pecisivel

1t is a rare woman who has the ca
pacity to decide a thing swiftly and
then unsweryingly carry out her deci-
sion.
Knowing it is a weakness of the sex,
it is strange that girls are not taught
from childhood to make up their minds
quickly. If they were the world would
be spared numberless inefficient and
Intellectual women.
The average woman really suffers in
making up her mind about an impor-
tant matter, and more often than not
when she has got it safely made up
and her family and friends are signing
with relief because the ordeal is yer
it collapses in straw-like confusion and
they are called upon to make it up for
her again.
1t is not difficult TO train a girl in the
habit of decision, and it will be a COM
fort for a mother to know that if fate
has decreed that her daughter must
live a life bereft of the support OF
family and friends she can make her
decision clearly. no matter by what
strange paths it may lead her, and live
up to it unfalteringly.

Clean Walls.

This is a recipe for a splendid wall
paper cleaner. Enough can be made in
ten minutes to clean a room and make
the paper look like new.
One heaping cupful of sifted -four,
one tablespoonful of salt, one table
spoonful of coal oil. two tablespoonfuls
Of vinegar, two tablespoonfuls of am
monia, one-half cupful of warm water.
Mix in a small kettle. Boil until the
-four is thoroughly scalded and the
moisture is used up. stirring constantly.
Then take it out and knead it with the
hands and it is ready for use.
Rub the wallpaper with balls of this
rubbery substance, as you would clean
paper with an eraser.

LEGAL POINTS

NTORE women, perhaps, get into
wi legal difficulties through a mis-

would lease the apartment for another
year. are pool evidence to lay before the
court when you have to u for your
rights, for before a promise to perform
a certain act or to enter a certain agree
ment can become a contract it must be
bought with a legal consideration. Now,
this consideration, which is the funda.
mental link of the contract, may be any
thing under the sun. Its market value
is not material to the validity of the
contract. You may offer to build a
house for n Of your fellow citizens
for $4,000, which is the consideration,
but the contract, once accepted, would
be quite as legal and binding if the con-
sideration were % cents.
An act of promise constituting a con.
tract, for instance, must be an act fol
which the party is not already legally
obligated. If you W $1,000 to Mrs.
Blank and the note falls due tomorrow
and you are not able to pay the entire
sum Mrs. Blank may settle the matter
by Offering to take $4,000 cash and by
giving you a receipt In full. But after
she has received the $4,000 in cash she
may refuse to give you the receipt In
full and may legally begin to u you
for the remaining $1,000, for you gave
her no consideration for her promise
to give you a receipt in full, and you
are still liable for the $1,000.
Once you have accepted the offer OF

lions the contract is binding, and you
can be sued if you do not keep 1t. The
acceptance Of an offer, moreover, Is
binding in the terms of the contract. no
matter how soon you may change your
mind after your first decision. You
may write your acceptance in a letter
suddenly change your mind and tele
graph a refusal, but even though the
telegram may arrive a day ahead OF
the letter the acceptance Is still bind
ing. An offer made by you, however
suggesting a certain contract is annul
led by a counter offer from the Other
party.
You should also remember for the
dignity of your sex and your own finan.
cial safety that you should never lend
money to your dearest male relatives.
or friends without the same security
that would be exacted of you by a
bank, and that it is very important fol-
a woman to handle all her financial al.
fairs and to have them handled in an
exact, bh~sinesslike fashion. Fewer and
fewer women nowadays are getting
out of obligations or getting into trou
BILE because they rely on their feminine
charms to protect them from the issue
The keen, hard sense of business prin-
ciple is becoming more and more a com
monplace.

The ~sardinians.

Sardinia was a wild place in the mid
die of the last century. A traveller
says: THE men are clothed in goat
skins, one before and another behind,
without breeches. shoes or stockings.
and a wooden Or skin cap on the head.
The women have no other habiliments
than a long WOODEN gown and a wooden
cap. The peasants always go armed
to defend themselves from one anoth-
er, so that travelling in the interior is
extremely unsafe without an escort.
and it is even dangerous for ships to
send their people on shore for water
unless they are well armed. In short,
the Sardes are the Malays of the Medi-
~terranean."

KING LEWANlKA'S STATE BOAT
Royal Craft Is 100 Feet Long, Carries
Monster Elephant Emblem, Court
Jester and Musicians.

While travelling in Rhodesia, :"
writes a contributor in the Wide World

of King Lewanika's state barge The
chief of the Barotse is a fine fellow,
but | was much amused one afternoon
to see him going out for u row attired
in top hat and a gaudy dressing
gown.
Soon after the rains commence the
Barotse valley is flooded and natives
migrate to the sandy belt some miles
away for the season. The king al
ways makes the trip in the royal barge,
an enormous craft about 100 feet long.
In the center are two compartments,
both covered in, one being the living
room and the other the sleeping quar-
tiers. On the roof of one of these com
partments is erected a monster ele-
plant, as a sort of kingly emblem,
while on the other stands the court
Jester, who, on this occasion, amused
the populace by pretending to hunt
and shoot the elephant. A band of 20
musicians were accommodated on the
barge, in addition to whom there were
80 or 60 paddlers and q host of bailers,
for the barge was by no means water
tight. To the accompaniment of weird
music and barbaric song the huge craft
was propelled along on its journey, the
return voyage taking place four or five
months later"
