From a High School Girl

Dear Cynthiu--I have been greatly inter
ssted in the discussion as TO the girls using
rouge II is all wrong. God gave all Of
us good compl"xions and ii is up to us TO
do the rest. 1t is true boys are attracted
in measure by girls who use rouge. But
the girls that boys admire and respect are
the plain. sensible ones. They are the girls
Bows desire to call their friends. Even the
ne 'er do o-wells that stand on saloon corners
Snper at thu girl who is painted.
Remember that English girls have repu-
tation for having good clear, hea lthy
skins Ar" the American girls 10 bear
the reputation of decorating their skin as
did the harbHrians long ago? Then the girl
who uses rouge to disguise poor com
plcXion is only making the matter worse.

PUT UP GRAPE JUICE
FOR WINTER DESSERTS
Is Easy to Make and Requires
No Sugar-Process Is
Given Here

In the face of the sugar shortage the
small grape arbor takes on new light.
The patriotic grower will look into the
possibilities of home e-nsade grape juice,
which is made without sugar, and which
is so wholesome used as beverage or
in desserts of one kind and another.
Only clean, sound well-ripened but
not overripe grapes should be used.
These may be crushed and pressed
either by hand or in an ordinary cider
mill If a light-cOlOred juice is desired,
the crushed grapes are put in clean,
Well-Washed cloth sack and either hung
up and twisted or grasped by two pers
sons, one at either end, and twisted
until the greater part of the juice is
expressed, Then. in a double boiler or
its equivalent, such as "A large stone
Jar placed in q pan of hot water, so
that the juice does not come in direct
contact with the fire. the juice Is gradu-
ally heated to temperature of 1870 de-
grees to 200 degrees Fahrenheit The
temperature should never be allowed to
go above 200 degrees Farenheit
Heat to II Steaming Point
II is best to use a Thermometer; If
none is. available, however, the juice
may be heated until it steams. but it
should not be allowed to boil. 1t should
enameled vessel and allowed to settle
for twenty-four hours then the juice
should be drained from the sediment
and run through several thicknesses of
clean flannel or through a comic filter
made from woolen cloth or felt and
fixed to hoop Of iron, so that it can
be suspended wherever necessary. The
juice is then poured into clean bottles,
space being left at the top for the liquid
to expand when heated
A good home substitute for COM
mercial pasteurizer is an ordinary wash
boiler with a thin board fitted over
the bottom on which the filled bottles
are set Ordinary glass fruit jars serve
the same purpose equally well. The tub
should be filled with water to within
an inch or so of the tops of the bottles
and heated until the water begins to
simmer. The bottles should then be
taken out and sealed or Corked imr1edi-
ately only new corks that have just
been soaked for about thirty minutes in
warm water at a temperature of about
l40 degrees Fahrenheit should be used
1t is well to take the further precau-
tion of sealing the corks with parattin
or sealing wax to prevent the entrance
of mold germs.
To Make Red Juice
When red juice is desired, the crushed
grapes should first be heated to a tenn
perature of not more than 200 degrees
F., then strained through a clean clotf
or drip bag, no pressure being used, ano
set away TO cool and settle. The re-
manning procedure is the same for the
red as for the light-colored juice.
Any person familiar. with the process
of canning fruit can put up grape juice
for the principles involved are the same
! Care should be taken not to sterilize the
juice at a temperature higher than 19F
degrees F., or the finished product vii
/ have a scorChed taste. The bottles OF
/ lars should not be so large that wher
! they are opened the juice will spoil be
