of materials at home. Children
who are fretty and refuse food in
Summer may we'll be offered the
cool matted milk.
In the authors family the word
soda" is applied to all beverages
drunk in q tall glass. BY the
camoufiage of whipping egg whites
or beating the eggs the resem-
blance to typical soda water is borne
out. Also, If a package Of "straws"
such as used at a drug store is pur
chased, and children allowed to
drink through the straw, the illu-
sion will be complete. One deli
cate child who never took eggs IN
any other form was delighted with
this homemade soda.
A convenient little utensil for
preparing various drinks is .
mixer" This consists of metal
or glass jar holding half pint and
fitted with strainer at the top. BY
shaking this back and forth good
mixing is provided, and then the
drink can be nicely strained into
its glass. Some mixers have
lemon squeezer in the top.
All kinds of fruit cutters which
slice or cut fruit into fancy shapes.
a good lemon squeeZer and an Ice
clipper are also indispensable. This
last is small tool with saw-like
teeth which rapidly shaves the Ice
into fine particles particularly suit
able for beverage use.
There Is on the market q unique
syphon fed with bullets" contain
ing carbonic acid gas under
pressure. The syphon is SO made
that this bullet may be inserted in
the top and opened by turning a
handle. This releases the gas into
the beverage contained In the
syphon, making the exact counter.
part of drug store soda water.
The syphon costs about 81 and
the bullets are renewable. Each
syphon holds two quarts, and thus
1t is an easy matter to prepare de-
icious carbonated beverages.
AS many Summer drinks contain
fruit 1t is convenient to have set
of special fruit spoons, made either
of glass or silver. These have long,
slender straw-like handles like a
straw, and also like straw they
are hollow. The tip is tiny spoon
which assists in lifting the ever
escaping marasch:no cherry from
the bottom OF the glass. A pretty
set of these spoons in white glass
with yellow tips is charming for
any Summer service.

a r the first faint Indication OF
n double chin the wise
4 = woman will give herself a
rigid course Of home treatment.
She will want to correct the
trouble in the shortest possible
time. She knows that the double
chin is the particular signpost Of
old age and LONELINESS.
The FIRST infallible proof that
tells you the dread spectre is upon
you is the sagging cheek muscles.
These are serious and difficult to
treat, so you must lose no time in
getting to work upon them The
sagging muscles indicate that they
have grown too weak to remain in
place and they must be assisted
and strengthened. The best way
to strengthen them is to cause
freer circulation in those parts that
are affected. And the way to slim
ulate the circulation is to massage
those surfaces where circulation is
desired.
But 1t is necessary that you be
very careful about massage. Bad
that is, unintelligent-massage is
worse than none.
Study the dropping cheek mus.
cles and you will notice that they
are likely to sag from the cheek
over the edge of the lower jaw
bone, thus melting in an ungraceful
way down into the neck. This
must not be permitted. The jaw
bone should keep its thin, fine edge
to the end of life. The nearer it
is like q razor edge in sharpness
the nearer you are to keeping the
facial line of youth. Some are
born moon-faced, and despite all
care mcon-faced they will remain.
But 1t Is true, nevertheless, in the
large majority of cases, that If the
lower edge of the jaw is Of knife.
like sharpness, the woman who
possesses 1t is still young. If it
be muffled by flesh the woman is
old or is growing old.
Since the flesh is inclined to
melt down into the chin, so form
ing that unlovely acquisition-the
double or even the triple chin-it
is necessary to massage that sur
plus flesh regularly. So l would
advise you to strengthen the mus
cles Of the true or normal chin
thus:
With a pure massage cream give
one stroke to the muscles of the
chin with the right hand, then with
the left, and SO alternate. Pass the
hands from side to side, one under
the other. When you have made
twenty such strokes, give your at
