Did not Mckinley, following our war
with drapidated SPAIN plead with
the people 10 support republicans for
office lest a failure 20 do so would
weaken our commissioners in their
efforts 10 secure all the fruits of our
victory lie came TO Indiana and
warned us that

ferences abroad we must not
have any AZ home"
and no one thought OF accusing him
OF being an outlaw because he did
IT, The republican party had the
benefit Of his appeal and republican
politicians rejoicsd over IT, Every
right Mckinley had 20 make his ap-
peal. Wilson had 10 write his letter

a place in the hearts OF the people
in these countries no other American
ever enjoyed, and his leadership in
the war has made our country
honored and loved across the seas

or three good sized tomatoes to add to the
chowder. Cook until vegetables are tender,
but not broken, stirring occasionally; then

corn can be obtalned--the corn from three or

temperatures had not increased and about half

and rellshed by the grown-ups This
Is list of the virtues that few desserts DOS
scss.
Most Of them are found in the old-fash-
toned Junket and not only is it recommended
by physicians, a valuable method of using
milk, but it may be prepared in so many
different forms that the family will not tire
of it.
In texture it closely resembles a perfectly
baked custard a gelatne blanc mango:
and 1T is made from pure milk containing
enough of the active principle of rennet
Cfound in the junket tablet to coagulate it.
SO simple is it to make that failure is
well-ngh impossible, and as one pint of milk
will make sufficient to serve three persons
1T certainly cannot be classed as an expensive
luxury, even in these days of war economy.
One junket tablet will ''jelly" one quart
of milk, and the tablets may be broken in
halves or quarters if smaller amount is
used.
To make plain junket, add three table
spoonsfu of sugar to one quart of rich milk
and warm to tepid heat Stir until the sugar
is dissolved flavor with one teaspoonful Of
any preferred extract and mix in one iunket
tablet that has been crushed and dissolved

mixture well and pour into individual cups
Dust over the tops with little grated nut
meg and allow it to stand in a warm room
until firm. Then carefully remove, without
Earring, to the ice chest. Serve either plain
or with spoonful of sweetened whipped
cream on top of each portion.
This junket is delicious if poured over
fresh fruit and allowed to set 1t is also
very good used with haved branded peaches
or Maraschno cherries With the latter, flavor
the junket with little of the cordial and
omit the extract.
Caramel Junket

over the fire until it melts and turns rich
caramel color. Then add about five table,
spoonsful of water and cook to syrup. To

it is nothing so unpatrotic 1t is an
undergrown ice chest, especially adapted to
the high price of ice and the small size of the
kitchenette and can be slowed away in a
ner of the pantry or placed on any shelf that
is at least ten inches wide. Though primarily
designed for the nursery, to keep milk through
the summer nights, it will solve the problem
of the bachelor girl or man in the salad, fruit
and cold drink season just as effectively.
We have known folks who were slaves to
their refrigerator, who had to hurry home for
fear cit" would run over. The Nonpareil

The ice rests on perforated rack, and there
is space below it both for the air and the
water to circulate. The latter can be con-
venently drawn off from faucet
The box is slightly, being finished in white
enamel or in imitation of grained oak, walnut
or rosewood. 1t comes in three sizes, Is by

16 by 1612 inches. The medium size tested
has ice chamber that is Ga inches wide
and can hold twenty eight pounds of ice, but
as it is difficult to fit the ice closely into the
space, about twenty pounds would be the
amount practically required to fill it.
The food compartment is ample, being en-
tirely and safely separated from the ice,
though the upper part of the partition is per
forated to allow the circulation of the cold
air. removable half shelf allows various
kinds of foods and containers to be conven-
iently placed and increases the storage ca

Some Patriotic Desserts of
Cold Rice and Fruit
BY DORA MORRELL HUGHES

~ ESSERTS of rice have the merit of be-
ing, according to Hoover" inexpen-
sive. easily prepared, and when prop
erly made very inviting Rice should be
cooked so that each grain holds it's shape, ex-
cept when jellied. To keep the grains distinct
have the water boiling rapidly so that they
jump when put into it. Let them boil fast until
soft, from twenty to thirty minutes, then drain
off the water, saving it for starching or for
soup thickening, and steam in the double boiler
until dry. Cooked in this way, with the addi-
ton Of raisins or cut dates it is a good des-
sert for children, to be eaten with milk.

Junket Ice Cream

1t is probably the cheapest kind that the
housewife attempt with any degree of
satisfaction. Prepare the ordinary vanilla

using half pint of cream and the remainder

highly favored than for junket. Allow it to

in practice, since the ice would produce less

would not be true, but the twenty pounds

berries and keep the lettuce crisp, the basket
refrigerator will fill the need Even if you
go no further than the lawn or the piazza, it
is a convenience, and on the motor or fishing

The basket is good looking, inside and out,
with its covering of dull brown or forest green
reed and its lining of nickel plated metal.
The sides are insulated and the basket is very
durable, as we'll compact and ornamental.

but the irregular shape of the cebox reduces
this practically to about seven or eight pounds

Two More Canning Accessories

Last summer loud cry went up from home
Gamers throughout the land for special racks
to convert the conservative old washboiler
into Gamer, and for filters that would un-
erringy plunge into a stean1ing boiler and
bring out hot, heavy, slippery glass jar with
precision and safety. Too often they were
not to be had for love or money. This year
there many different models to meet these
two very real needs, if you are to can by the
