THE HOUSEHOLD
How to Serve Fruit.
Edited by ANNE RITTENHoUsE

The habit of eating fruit raw is
rather more general in the United
States, we are told, than anywhere
else. And scientists have pointed out
that this is probably because raw fruit
is as little likely to be harmful here as
anywhere in the world, because we are
still a comparatively new country and
our fruits grown for the most part on
stretches of land far from possible
contamination by house drainage and
other conditions likely to contaminate
the fruit with bacteria. In China
where there is every danger of bac-
teria1 contamination owing to the gen.
eral congestion and the use of house
hold refuse for fertilization fresh fruit
is seldom eaten. Everything is care
fully boiled, and this was the case even
before any one in that land could have
guessed at the presence of bacteria.
Now tho fruit is fairly free from
bacteria in this country remember that
when fruit does prove injurious it is
because it harbors some sort of bac-
terra on its skin. For this reason, if
you wish to be on the safe side never
eat fresh fruit that has not been thor
oily washed. Most fruits, including
even such delicately skinned fruit as
grapes. can be put in boiling water for
a few seconds, long enough to render
the bacteria harmless, without injur-
ing the fruit. And this Is recommended
by many doctors.
1t has become the fashion lately to
serve fruit very cold. We have grape
fruit and oranges served in a bed of
cracked ice. Epicures, however, tell
US that fruit is not at it's best when
served SO excessively cold. And that
the delicacy of flavor is removed when
it is served in that way. What prob
ably happens is that the extreme cold
on our tongues renders them less SEN
sitive. This is often the case in a
frozen dessert which seems less sweet
to the taste than when the same mix
ture is unfrozen.
Stewed, fruit, always a favorite in
England, is something that we would
do well to include more frequently in
the diet. We are devotees of apple
sauce but we seldom give ourselves
the variety of stewed apples. To make
them simply boil whole halves or
quarters of apples, that have been
peeled and cored, in a weak syrup. If
you like, add a little lemon rind or
juice or stick one or two of the apple
sections with a whole Glove. They
should be boiled gently till tender but
not allowed to break. Pears cooked In
the same way make a nice breakfast
fruit or a dessert.

IN BUSINESS TREATY
U. S. Solving After War Problems
With Central and South America.

With Central and South America.
Washington, Sept. 2S.-AThe United
States is preparing to grapple with
after-the-war problems.
A peace preparedness" legislative
measure already well under way is de-
signed to cope with German CONNER
cial competition and at the same time
to prevent Germany, under the cloak
of business activity, from spreading
propaganda in the United States and
republics.
Treaties with Central and South
America are being prepared providing
for licensing of travelling statesmen.
The first of these with Uruguay, is
now before the senate committee on
foreign relations.
Under this treaty 1.-The citizenship of
the company represented and not that
of the salesman is the principal fac
tor upon which the granting of the
license is to rest.
If such treaties are ratified by the
United States and the other pan-Amer-
lean nations, Germany's business can
be kept out of the Americas altogether
If the Americans wish to keep it out.

New York.-The kind of economy
and conservation which the govern
ment wishes women to observe has
nothing to do with the screams of GER
tain reformers for the non-purchase
of any clothes for the duration of the
war.
1t is absurd to ask women to with
hold their purchases at a time when
the country needs the circulation of
their money more than ever. It is all
very well to ask rich women to cut in
half their large wardrobes and en-
deavor to make good clothes keep on
serving, with the addition of few
others. 1t is also we'll to insist that
very woman buy with discretion, in or
der to get the full value of her money.
There is a straight and simple path
between the two extremes of extrava-
gance and restitution. The govern
ment does Eot propose to restrict the
purchasing power of women to such
an extent that millions will be thrown
out of industries in which they are
skilled workers and for which there is
no demand by the war board.

News from home IS a thing very

to a. person in Topeka by a boy in the

boy, one of those national guardsmen
who camped in Ripley park in Au-
gust, 1917.
In his letter the soldier says in part:
Newspapers over here are scarce and
of course those from home weeks old,
but still we read them over and over
again to get what we can of the home
doings- I found a Topeka State Jour-
nal away ION the outskirts of Nancy,

They do not realize that there are

They have not the money to fill their

Let the rich be sensible and realize
that we of the masses do not select

level of purchases, let them use all
their vitality to restrict their own
