Hubands Are Hoping


Recently an Irvington woman in
vited a few of her friends to play cards
during the afternoon. There was a
strong intimation that the highest
score would be rewarded with a prize
That stimulated interest to a degree.
The women had visions of the or
binary prizes given for card profit
cheney. One of them thought of a nice
ly hemmed towel, another saw visions
of a cut-glass tumbler, and still an
other dreamed of something else.
There was but one table and as the
hostess was barred the contest was
wholly between the remaining three.
Finally the games were over and the
score tabulated. Then the hostess
came in with a big glass of currant
jelly and presented it as the prize of
the afternoon. She picked the cur
rants in her own garden and had made
the jelly herself.
There is hope in the hearts of some
Irvington husbands that the fad of
giving real food as prizes will grow.
Then, if their wives are good enough
bridge players there may be something
to eat when husbands come home in
the evening.-IndianapoIis News.

TRY THIS METHOD OF
MAKING ICE CREAM

The home demonstration depart
ment, Extension Division, Louisiana
State University, offer the following
suggestions for making ic cream:
The can, coFer and dasher of the
freezer should be scalded and then
chilled before the mixture which is to
be frozen is placed in it. Adjust the
can carefully in the tub before pack
ing. Pour in the mixture, put in the
dasher, cover. adjust the crank and
pack with finely chopped ice and rock
salt; this must be higher around the
can than the mixture inside.
Use three times as much ice as
salt for freezing. use four times as
much, ice as salt in packing.
In freezing ice cream the crank
should be turned slowly and steadily.
When mixture is frozen, remove ice
and salt from around the top of the
can; wipe cover and top; o and
remove dasler, scrape it; then beat
frozen mixture thoroughly with wood
en- spoon or paddle; place heavy pa
per over can; cover and put a cork
in the hole. Drain off all the water
which has collected during the freez-
ing and which should not be removed
until freezing is completed; repack
tho frcp1or nuttipU ioo ord colt ovnr
the top, cover with carpet, blanket or
newspaper and allow it to stand in
a cold place several hours.
A tightly covered tin pan and a
wooden pail may be substituted for an
ice cream freezer, using a wooden
sroon or padle to scrape the mixture
from the sides and bottom of the can
as it freezes.

plsLlkEs BADGE or BEAUTY
Modern Man Apparently Not Recon
ciled to. That Idea of His Pro-
jectins Adams ppIe"

Mans badge of beauty and brains Is
his Adams apple, that projection in
the fore part of the neck which has
been so called, from the notion that
it was caused by a fit Of the forbidden
fruit which stuck In Adams throat.
Scientists have many theories on the
subject, and have told a long story of
the evolution of the apple-how man
came by long descent from Informed
spineless things that same into life
by chemical action. Then came fish,
which, as soon as they got backbones,
began to develop something like
Adams apples. From the primitive
forms Of the ancient seas are believed
to have come the mammals from
which sprang the human ace.
It is a long story, but the fact re-
mains that as the human a C devel-
oped and became more civilized the
Adams apple in man became more
prominent. The ancient Greeks de-
picted their strong heroes and highest
types of beauty with prominent ZAP
! PIES" although modern artists and
sculptors rather ignore it in their
works. AS a matter of act, the wear
ing of high stocks and collars would
seem to point to the fact that man is
not altogether proud Of displaying his
badge Of beauty.

SkenticaI Jury

An Idaho lawyer tells of a case tried
in that state some years ago, on which
occasion the Judge, an fastener who
desired to display his learning. in
strueted the jury very fully, laying
down the law with the utmost authori-
ty. But the jurors, after d~eIiberaing
some hours. found themselves unable
to agree. Finally the foreman asked
for additional instructions.
Judge, here's the trouble" said he.
THE jury wants to know if what you
told US was really the law or only
just your notion.'-Harpers.
