Importance of Thermometer In Pre-

The preserving specialists advise
those who are going to put UP any
quantity OF preserves to purchase a
chemical thermometer which gives
readings By degrees Fahrenheit for
each degree from 212 degrees up.
Equipped with such a Thermometer,
the preserver can be certain of uni
form results. The strip will not reach
222 degrees Fahrenheit until it is
cooked enough and is of the best pre-
serving consistency. The reason for
this is that the strip will not reach
this temperature until the proper

PITIFUL APPEAL RECEIVED
 FOR NAMED SOLDIERS
Mrs. c. K. Austin Asks Local Red Cross Workers for immediate Aid Conditions Heartrending.

The following is the latest of the weekly bulletins received by the Nor wich Red Cross from Mrs. c. K. Aus 1 tin, wife of an American physician | at the front. Mrs Austin is one ot | those in charge of the surgical dress Jan. sth, 1917. The wounds are so terrific that the small pads are of very little use En- less the doctors use many at a time, and this is not really practical because the pus oozes between them. I have been asked for the larger size so many time for making a quantity here. Will you think, I wonder, that we are al- ways changing? It is not we, out the conditions and the demands. You can not send us too many one-yard gaUza packings. They use these in enorm ous quantities, and they are really more useful than the half-yards. They are not only used for packing but for dressing stumps. Alas! there are so many!
 A friend of mine was at a hospital just outside Paris a few days ago. There he saw eleven men with both arms and legs gone, and one of them blind. The wounds from the Somme have some of them been simply too ghast1y for description and the hos pitals are full to overf1owing. When will it ever end? l wonder if you can have the faintest idea of the things
 
 And the men are so patient.
 Boston has been more than gener- ous to the hospitals we supply. The material is perfect and we never have to touch a thing. I hope you are able to let all your workers and sub-com- mittees know how grateful we are.
 Did I tell you in my last letter about the pillows we are making for the trains, ~at the request of the Ser vice de Sante? We are able to get off 250 a week, that is to say, enough for one train. We are just sending off our fourth lot.
 It is such a comfort to feel that at least that number of poor fellows are going to have really soft, comfort able pillow to rest their heads upon. We need heaps of the small ones also, for they say it takes ten or twelve of the latter to make a very badly wounded man as comfortable as pos sible for the transit We are making all W can of these too, but we seem to be almost showed under with work for we have to remember the heavy, warm chaussons which are to keep their feet warm after their boots are removed. We have to supply 800 pairs of these also for a tuberc ular hospital in the mountains where the men lie out of doors all day. And so it goes. | Today is one thing. tomorrow another. |
