A Toast to Nature

n lOdSC 10 Nature
The Juice of such fruits as the
berry, raspberry, e~lderberry and
cherry makes delicious, wholesome
drinks. Fruit juices also may be
canned and made into jelly when 1t
is wanted during the winter. Winter
jelly making relieves the pressure of
work during the hot and busy fruit
season. Sugar need not be added
jelly is made. Extract the Juice by
boiling the fruit with a r~ry little
water and strain through a jelly bag.
To prepare the juice for canning
pour 1t into bottles or Jars which
have been boiled for fifteen minutes.
Put these on a false bottom In a hot
water bath. This may be a CONNER
cial Gamer or a container large
enough to hold sufficient water. The
water should reach the necks of the
bottles and the shoulders of the jars.
A cotton stopper may be pressed In
to the g of the bottle and left
during the processing period, or a
cork, after being boiled, may be put
In lightly. If Jars are used as con-
tainers put boiled tops in place and
half seal. Process for 80 minutes
at the simmering point. Remove,
put shoppers Of bottles in tightly,
and when cool dip the top of the
bottle into melted parafin or sealing
wax. Equal parts of rosin and bees
wax make>a good wax. Finish tight
ening the tops Of the jars as soon as
they are removed from the bath.
Test for leaks and store in a dry,
dark, cool place.
Aside from their use in making
jelly and as a base for homemade
drinks, these fruit juices are excel
1onf for 1,oa IN gelatin sauna too
creams, sherbets, and other desserts.
Those which are to be used in this
way will nave a better flavor if sugar
is added before they are bottled

Fairfax Writes Ohe Problems and the War Workers
Especially for Washington Women

= (L.etters to this column should be writ.
ten on one side Of the paper oAly)
7 ETTERS continue to come in
answer to "Revenue's"
query about the disappear
ance Of the frank young girl with
the right kind Of . smile.
Some agree with Revenue" that
she has gone and q vampish young
person has taken her place. Others
contend that the straightforward
young girl went out Of fashion be-
cause her masculine counterpart,
the straightforward young man be-
came extinct first. And what was
the use Of being smiling and sweet
and straightforward, and all the
other delightful girlish things,
when the men fairly rushed past
them to get at the rouged and
bedizened vampire.
Sweet smiling girlish girls went
out" even as bottle openers went
out, because there Is no demand
for them. And when men like
frank, ingenious girls and pay a
little attention to them, and don't
leave them stranded wall flowers
ut every dance, they will come
back into fashion again.
A Mas PoInt Of View.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
/ know that Revenue is wrong
and 1 want to tell him 30. He seems
to be 90 much concerned about the
frank, Straightforward GIRL" and
II is plain enough that we never
give 4 thought to the young men OF
today. He says that "the average
young man OF today u no fool, he
knows as much shout women as
they know about themselves" II he
does know 30 much about women,
Il 10 easy to see that he does not
know much about himself.
Il the young man OF today q
straiRhtforward fellow, with q
6n1ile for all and q frown for nons?"
Mol We will take him for an exam
plN, He admits he stands on the
street corners and looks girls over
as they pass BY; he makes fun Of
them 1t the dances; he call them
- crowd Of vemps."
Mr.. " Revenue" do you know that
you, ana others like you, insist that
the girls wear slit-Gkirts. paint their
faces, and in general be silly and
comIcal as possible? II girls did
not DO this you would not be on the
street corners looking for them; you
would not be at the dances to call
them "vAmps." II is not the girls
faults altogether. that they are
what they are today.
According to your statement, "ths
average girl one meets out IL 90 ABB
rupt and forward that . man Is all
most Ashamed 70 be seen on the
streets with them" The average
man 4 girl meets out IL 90 rude,
overbearink, and unreasonable that
she dares not trust herself in his
company.
There are Just ~ true. sweet, and
pure girls today a. there ever were.

The observation Of the writer is
that the public does not look around
through the market sections for the
low priced food as they did In for
mer years. They seem to have more
money to spend and they spend II
carelessly.
The result Of this Is that nearly
every produce dealer finds it prac-
ticaliy impossible to sell his under
grade or low-grade goods at any
price. His customers demand only
the highest grades, thereby causing
the dealers to lose heavily on the
lower grades and Of necessity to adj
vance their prices on the higher
grades beyond what they would have

TO do were the lower grades meeting

For instance, we have IN our e.
tablishment q number Of cracked
eggs taken out Of the shipments ~.
irving by every express or frsight
train.
These cracked eggs, II used
promptly, are Just as good e. any
others-in fact, they are absolutely
fresh, otherwise they would be de-
cayed when taken from the cases.
We put these eggs up in one-dozsn
cartons and are today offering them
to the public at S5c per dozen.
We find it impossible to move
them, or rather to move e. many e.

the trade does not take them.
Several years ago we had . graea
number Of people calling for cracked
eggs and we could sell more than We
could get. At that time the trade
seemed to call for the lower priced
article.
Now, the retailers who sell eggs
tell US that their demand is entirely
for fancy stock. The trade wants no
