Kitchen Observations

Turpentine viii soften hardened
shoe polish.
The perfect preserve closet is cool
and dark.
Cold beefsteak makes very good
hash on toast.
Pastry that has been standing in
the ice box will be soggy.
Raisins added to the nut salad will
make it taste better.
Soiled candles can be cleaned with
a cloth dipped in spirits of wine.
Bone meal is an excellent fertilizer
for the tops of flower pots.
Baked apples stuffed with raisins
are good. Take out the core and fill
the hole with raisins.
Spinach should be cooked so tender
that fork will not hold it.
The kitchen should be well aired.
No one can do good work in a room
poorly ventilated.

Suggestions for the Patriotic
Housewife

Use cheaper cuts of meat, cooking
them thoroughly and seasoning them
carefully.
Use dried, sailed and picked
meats and fish.
Use, in variety of ways, meat
substitutes such as cheese, CONNER
cial and home-made) nuts, beans,
peas, milk, eggs.
Use milk in all forms for it is a
nourishing and cheap food. Don't
scorn skim milk.
Use corn products in diet, such as
cornmeal dishes, hominy, corn grits.
Use rice and starchy pastes (mac-
aroni, noodles, etc), as potato substi-
tutes.
Use some dried fruits as desserts,
peaches, apples, prunes, etc. Wash
fruit thoroughly, soak in cold water
and cook fruit in that water.
Use carefully every bit of fat. Rem
der out suet, chicken fat, save ham
and bacon drippings for gravies,
shortening, dressing, greens" etc.
Use all vegetables in the large va
riety of ways so well-known to every
housewife.
Plan meals carefully, order wisely,
store carefully, cook and serve food
properly.

What else of value lies beneath
Thunder Bay waters is conjectural-
there was a story that there was $780,
900 or $4,000 in the boats express
safe, but this is denied by Captain
George p. Mckay, of Cleveland, now
treasurer of the Lake Carriers asso-
citation, who was master of the vessel
when she sank.
There is also story of a belt own
ed by woman passenger, which was
said to contain a large diamond and
a large sum of money.
1t is fact that one of the passen-
gers, who was saved, offered a reward
of $1,000 for the recovery of his
trunk. His name has been long since
forgotten.
In the hold Of the vessel divers
found number of skeletons.
The successful attack upon the
most powerful of all barriers to deep
sea work-water pressure has been
brought about by the "armored div
ing suit" constructed on novel lines
by B. F. Leavitt, of Toledo.

A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of a
remedy for kidney troubles and back
ache, it is a good plan to try Doan's
Kidney Pills. They are strongly re-
commended by Bedding people.
Mrs. Eugene Hill, 500 s. Alderman
ST., Belding, says: 81 have used
Doan's Kidney Pills off and on for
quite awhile just when | have needed
them and they have always proven of
great benefit. / can't recommend
them too highly for backache and a
weak or lame back or any irregular
action Of the kidneys. They have
never failed to cure these complaints
when | have had them. | don't think
there is anything better than Doan's
Kidney Pills for kidney trouble"
Price 60c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Hill uses. Foster Milburn Co.,

The one-piece dress is a great boon
to busy mothers, being easy to make
and to wash and iron. If the kimona
sleeve is used, the dress will be cool
err, but in some garments the set-ln
sleeve is less clumsy and wears bet
ter. Rompers, loose at the knee and
low-necked and short-sleeved may be
used for little girls and boys alike.
Denim overalls are rather cumber-
some for the hottest weather but are
adapted to cool days.
SEARCHED, frilled and fussy gar
ments are all alike unsuitable for
young children whose clothing should
be such as will make them perfectly
comfortable and permit the freest
play. No child should have to think
of his garments during the play
hours; he should of course be subject
to reasonable restrictions upon wilful
or mischeivous soiling or destruction
Of his clothing.
Cotton is the best material for out
side garments, since a child of this
age should have no clothes that can
not be washed. Mothers disagree as
to the comparative merits of white
clothing and colored. White gar
ments may be boiled, and thus the
amount of rubbing necessary to get
them clean is very greatly lessened.
On the other hand, white dresses are
soiled almost as soon as the child be-
gins to play out of doors. 1t must
be remembered that while white. or
light colors show the soil sooner,
there may be just as much actual dirt
on the darker ones. 1t must also be
remembered that light colors like
blue, green lavender, or pink are al
most certain to fade unless they are
washed with special care. Striped
and checked ginghams fade less than
plain materials, but often shrink bad
iy in washing. Such materials
should be shrunk before being made
up. Seersucker and cotton crepe
materials of many kinds have the
great advantage of needing no iron
ing. These rough materials are not
very cool and if used for summer
wear should have short sleeves and
round neck to avoid chatting of the
skin of the arms and neck. Percale,
galatea, madras, and the better
grades of ginghams or dress linen
are all good materials for children's
clothes. For hot weather almost any
of the thin materials may be used.
1t surely is refreshing to meet peo-
pie who greet one openly and cordial
". Why speak at all to everyone
whom you are reluctant or afraid TO
address, and then why not greet cor
daily and pleasantly if at all?

TREASURE FROM LONG
SUNKEN STEAM Err

Fifty-two years ago, August 8,
1866, the steamer Pewebic went to
the bottom of Lake Huron off Thun-
der Bay. The water was far beyond
the depth in which divers could work,
but attempts were made many times
to secure some of the treasure it
contained, for the Pewabic is a
treasurer ship in truth; men have
given their lives to reach her treas
ure i'm vain; fortunes have been vast
ed in the efforts to reach the prize
cargo $50 feet under the surface of
c con er coming 's up ;s some Of it
passed Detroit Sunday, on the way
to Toledo, together with a mass Of
other relics from the long lost vessel
In the hold of the Pewabic lie
nearly 300 tons of copper worth
100000 or more at the present mar
ket. Besides the copper, there are
several hundred tons of pig iron.

Clothes for the Growing Child

Clothes for the Growing Child
Very much of the comfort of a
child depends upon his having the
right kind of clothing. This is es-
pecially true in summer. One hot
day a mother came into an infant
welfare station in a large city bring
ing a screaming baby who would not
be pacified. The trained and symp-
athletic eye of of the nurse in charge
saw that the little feet were covered
with knitted wooden socks. She ask
ed the mother to take them off. I'M
mediately the screams ceased and the
baby stretched his naked feet in de-
light at being relieved of the intoler-
able irritation.
During the hot months children
should wear just as little clothing as
possible. Babies require only a dia-
per and one other garment, while run
ming about babies and children up to
five will be amply clothed in waist
and drawers, with one other garment
preferably a cotton slip, apron, or
rompers, or one of the many similar
garments illustrated in the pattern
books.

One of the most important things
that every housewife should know
about food is its value as nourishment
for the body. We must have foods
that feed. Here are several kinds
Of values that all human bodies need,
and without which they cannot be
healthy and well nourished. These
are:
3. Material to give heat and
3. Material to enrich and cleanse
the blood;
a. Material to form bone.
Let us take them in order:
/. 1t NAV be said of the body
building material that in a sense 1t
is the most important of all, because
we cannot live without it, while we
might go on living for some time
without most of the others, though
we could not long remain healthy.
Cheese, lentils, beans, peas. meat
fish oatmeal eggs, nuts, and, TO q
somewhat less extent, good bread. all
have much building material.
2. Fats of all kinds, such as but
ter, cream, suet, drippings, margar--
inc. and nut butter, give warmth and
strength to work. Sugar, molasses
and golden strip are also heat giving
and so are starchy foods such as po-
tatoes, rice and cornstarch.
3. Vegetables and fruits other than
peas. beans, ETC., contain little body
building material, but they give the
body what no other foods give; GER
tain juices which purify and enrich
the blood, and without which no one
can be healthy. These precious
Juices are thrown away when vegeta-
bles are boiled and the water is pour
ed down the sink. If these juices
were taken by people every day in
properly cooked vegetables, there
would not be nearly so much money
spent at the drug stores in buying
medicines.
4. The bone-forming materials are
to be found principally in milk and
cheese, good bread, oatmeal, onions,
and many green vegetables. They
are absolutely necessary for growing
children. Marian Harris Mel, in The
Cooking Department of The Peoples
Home Journal for August.
Our Food Supply and Our Allies
Every one of US must share, whetn--
err we will or not, in the burden OF
