We have been advised Of all sorts of
ways of using leftover food, and In the

used as iced beverages. Coffee left
from breakfast, and cocoa or tea, in
stead Of being thrown away, should
be strained. put in bottle or glass
jar. covered and placed in the ice box.
There may not be enough to serve the
entire family at dinner, but there will
probably be enough for a delicious
glass for some one who will greatly
appreciate it during the day.
A sirup can be made at home and
soda water prepared at any time. To
prepare this sirup boil together for
three minutes two ounces Of tartaric
one lemon and three pints of boiling
water. When partly cool beat in the
well beaten whites Of three eggs into
which has been smoothly blended one
half cup Of -four and one-half an

seething mass of khaki represents
merely pandemonium and incon-

train carries back its hundreds Of
refreshed, hopeful men. to whom
those blessed ten days have given a
new lease of life and hope.
Here you will see a young boy
lieutenant wiring his fathers hand
carriage. You turn away; those mo-
ments are not for strangers to look
upon.
Farther down the platform you
will see a sturdy bronzed Highlander

faced mother drinks in with strained.

Perhaps some instinct tells her that
picture is to be a precious possession
in dreary years to come.
