Future officers in the navy will re-
joice at the sight Of the white duck
suits for little ensigns. They have
brass buttons which can be easily
removed for laundering. and have
also the navy emblems on the Shout
der, as well as cap to match.
For the growing boy of thirteen,
that age when boys should be incar-
cerated for a few years, there are
suits which have been designed. by
some gifted person, to camouflage
the ungainly lines Of adolescent
youth. Long trousers. rather
short straight coat. going in ever so
little at the waist, and an Eton COL
lar create dignified yet very boyish
costume which will help him from
feeling that he is all hands and
feet.
Play suits Of dark gray chambray
are made UP in pleasing variety Of
styles for the little fellow. Most
popular are the middies, trench,
Russian blouse and Oliver Twist
models. Materials other than cham
bray are rep. linen crash, homespun
and khaki.
For the boy who is allowed to
dress up in the afternoons. or who
will do it IT, properly persuaded,
there are knickerbockers. Of white
flannel with a coat made Norfolk
style of dark gray cheviot. If he is
at a summer resort, he will want to
wear pair of wooden half hose with
gay knitted border. A Buster
Brown collar is the final touch that
makes the costume snappy as it

to add that he will not wear it If the
choice is left with him.
Trousers are all being made now
adays with reinforced knees and
seats. and the shops are still giving
two pairs with a coat even at that
There is new cotton material
which greatly resembles tweed, and
which makes very serviceable and
genteel looking trousers for every
day wear. Knickerbockers are
shown N new version which fasten
at the knees like fitted riding
breeches. We are seeing in the
newest clothes for little men a lot
of straight trousers, some Of them
buttoned over above the knee with
three bone buttons.
Loose brown and white tweed
coats for travelling are replicas Of
fathers and have jaunty rundown
hats to match.
Oxfords of russell or dark brown
leather are worn with half hose to
match or Of mixed heather colors.
For little boys high button tan shoes
are best for playing. and for dress
up hours there are white buckskin
or h1aclr pofopf Io,tha.
Alpine and broad brimmed hats
are the most liked by boys, though
when one is young enough to have
somebody else do the choosing. one
usually gets something less on the
cowboy order and more picturesque.
according to some one else's taste.
Caps are. of course. the most CON-
Portable and consequently most pop
ular headgear for big boys.

Last year when the Board who
had the say about wool conserva-
ton gave out the edict that all un-
necessary embellishments should be
left OF Of mems clothes. they left
out the clause about what boys
should not wear. There was never
any accountable reason for this, but
it remained for the boys to retain
their Norfolk backs and real belts
and patch pockets. So this spring

which is the newest note in fashions

with two high patch pockets and
curved seams are decidedly nipped
in at the waist, and some Of them
have imitation belts stitched on
across the back. These suits have
nifty hats to match and shirts with
hairline stripes to carry out the
color scheme. Tan and gray. reg

Marking Trees Without
Injuring Them

We are planting memorial for
ests and are learning 20 protect
and preserve our wild life, both
animal and vegetable; therefore,
when we are in the wilds we must
be careful not to destroy timber,
and if we want to use tree for
hat rack, a clothes rack or a gun
rack, we must devise some method
which will not injure the tree. The
old-time woodsman did this by
striking his axe into the trunk of
the tree and thereby making a per-
pendicular cut. Into the center of
this cut he would then drive a
blunt peg. The advantage of this
lies in the fact that an upright
wound on tree heals readily and
leaves practically no scar, there
fore, if when one leaves camp the
peg is knocked from it's place there
will be no injury done to the tree.

Dip The Chicks

dip that chick!" 1t isn't done
just for the sake of making a
rhyme for "dip that tick" either.
Dipping chickens is likely to be-
come more general than dipping
cattle, because the chicken louise
is more widely distributed insect
than the cattle tick. The dip"
consists of l ounce of sodium
tluoride to the gallon of water,
which should be at a temperature
of 70 to S5 degrees. The dipping
should be done on clear, warm
day-never on a cold day. The old
way of getting rid Of chicken lice
was by dusting with dry sodium
fluoride. 1t was effective, but in
the case of large flocks it was slow
and wasteful, great deal of the
dusting material being inevitably
lost,

And Now It's "Swat The
Pediqreed Scrub Hog

Thousands of pure-bred scrubs
are scattered through this coun-
try, according to hog-extension
men Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. who are de-
voting their efforts to eliminating
inferior pedigreed animals. This,
they say, applies to all kinds of
live stock, but is perhaps more
general in the hog industry. Pedi-
grees are necessary and valuable
to the hog breeder, yet the pedi-
gree is the means Of fooling lot
Of farmers, particularly those who
are about to start into the pure
bred hog business and who have
not had enough experience in judg-
ing to select animals of good
standard type. Buyers should not
be contented simply with pure
bred animals, but should see in
addition that the animals they
are about to purchase have good
quality, say the department hog
specialists.

If There's An Energy
Leak Somewhere

If you tire easily; have no pick
up, as motorists say; sleep doesn't
reem to rest you; you find it a
great effort to concentrate your
mind upon things; you postpone
until tomorrow what you would do
today if you were in good condi-
tion; long walk seems quite out
of the question.
There is an energy leak some
where. Perhaps we can find it. A
good way to go about it is to list
the principal causes of energy of
elimination narrow the diagnosis
down to the probable cause.
One very common dissipator
of energy is weak feet. In most
cases there are signs other than
fatigue-signs which point more
or less directly to the feet and
lungs, but in some cases the foot
strain is transmitted in such way
as to produce merely general ia
tigue, and nothing but test of
the integrity of the feet will decide
the question. Correction of the de-
feet, if it be found, and if it be
the cause of the energy leak will
Danish fatigue.
Worry, eye-strain monotonus
work, overwork under uncongenial
conditions, the abuse of alcohol,
tea and coffee, poisoning due to
tobacco, intestinal autointoxica-
tion resulting from diet too rich
in proteins (meat, eggs), late
hours and malnutrition due to
dental defects are some other
frequent causes of energy leaks.
Working or sleeping in poorly
ventilated rooms is very COM
mon fatigue factor. When you
breathe and rebreathe' vitiated
atmosphere you are not only being
poisoned by the products of res
piration, but you are being depriv-
ed of life-giving oxygen
Too frequent or too prolonged
bathing, and particularly the hot
bath habit, will often occasion ia
tigue which may seem unaccount-
able to the victim.
Practically all Of the causes of
energy leaks which have been con-
sidered can be corrected, either by
the tired one himself or herself, or
by the physician.
Don't muddle along in your tired
state; don't get morbid about it.;
but do little thinking Of the right
sort, and, if necessary, secure
medical advise.

It has been said that the cat
bird can initiate anything from a
squawking cartwheel to the song
of a thrush. He sings along ap-
parently without knowing what he
is going to improvise next. In color
this bird is rather somber, being
dark gray with a black cap. He
is one of the most common birds
throughout the United States, al
though rare west of the Rockies.

Short Cuts

SO quickly.
Short Cuts
When baking a cake, set the
alarm clock, so that no matter how
busy, the attention will be called
to the kitchen.
Old stocking legs slipped over
the sleeves will keep a gown fresh,
when working in the kitchen. A
stocking leg slipped over an old
whisk broom makes a fine brush
for the stove.
Obstinate stains of almost any
kind may be removed by using
soap with peroxide, then placing
the stain in the sun. Sometimes
several applications of the per-
oxide will be necessary. Iron rust
is easily removed by solution of
salts Of lemon in water applied
to the spots, and then letting the
bright sunlight to act upon it.
Candles for use on the table will
burn clearer and longer if kept on
ice for a day before using. A ring
of salt put around the wick will
give soft, steady flame and will
burn all night.
Cracks and splits in furniture
may be filled with melted beeswax
and then vanished, so that they
will hardly show.
Mositen the brush of the carpet
sweeper-it will do much better
work.
Clean soiled plumes in alcohol.
Shake, and they will be as fresh
as ever.
Pineapple juice is a good cure
for indigestion. Pineapple with
bananas and an orange, all cut
fine, makes a good cake filling
One can of shredded pineapple,
three bananas and one orange
sliced very thin, will lbe enough
filling for large cake.
Keep plenty of water in the boil
ing pots and pans on damp, rainy
day, for the atmosphere absorbs
it rapidly.
In cooking rice, use plenty of
boiling water, and keep it boiling
rapidly at first so that the grains
will be distinct.
Apply soap and ammonia to
burns from acid Immediately, to
allay the pain.
Grated horseradish mixed with
milk, salt and cayenne make a good
sauce to serve with fish.
Hot Potato Biscuits
Hot biscuits are always popular
and if they can be made in part
from potatoes, there is no reason
why we should not indulge ou,
fancy for them occasionally ever
in these times. Cold mashed pota
toes may be used in the recipe
for them or the potatoes may be
freshly boiled and prepared fol
the biscuits.
One cupful of mashed potatoes
will be repired for two cupfuls Of
bread -four previously sifted with
three teaspoonfuls Of baking pow

these ingredients we'll and rub il

For The
Homemaker's Eve
To Restore Glaze to Linen

When linens are new they are so
lovely and shiny that one hates to
think of their soon outgrowing
that nice glaze that has an air of
making the table we'll dressed.
Well, they need not lose that
glaze. At least, they can have it
restored to them if they do lose it.
1t is produced mainly by a warm
iron and may be put on linen by
most any person.
To each pound of starch used
for this purpose take piece of
sperm or white wax about the size
of walnut. Give the linen as
much starch as it is possible to
charge it with. Then dry it. When
ready to be ironed, the linen is
laid upon the table and moistened
very lightly on the surface with
a clean wet cloth. 1t is then ironed
in the usual way with a flat iron
and is ready for the glossing op-
Grafton.
For this purpose a very heavy
fatiron must be used. 1t is pressed
firmly upon the linen and rubbed
with much force. 1t is this fric-
tional action which puts on the
gloss. Plenty of elbow grease is
necessary if the process is to be
really successful.
Desserts for Hot Weather
There is no dessert more whole
some, attractive and we'll liked
than fruit. Muskmelons, water
nelson, berries of various kinds
in season when grown in ones
own garden or purchased at rea-
sonable price, are wonderful
savers of time in dessert making
When one cannot afford to serve
fruit as a full dessert it may be
used as a garnish, thus helping
out the appearance and flavor as
we'll as the cost of the dessert.
Junket is a most wholesome and
delicious dessert and when garn.
Iished with a spoonful of sugared
fresh fruit, is satisfying and in.
expensive.
To Make the Junket
Heat TO lukewarm temperature a
quart of milk, add junket tablet
dissolved in tablespoonful Of
cold water, pinch of salt, and
sugar to sweeten to taste, flavor
with any desired favoring, pour
into sherbet cups and let stand in
a warm room to set. When thick
put on ice to chill and serve with
a spoonful of whipped cream and
a spoonful of fresh berries well
sugared, one, or both.
Ice Cream
Where there is no scarcity of ice,
frozen desserts are to be recon-
mended, not only because they are
so refreshing, but because they are
really not any more expensive to
prepare than a cooked dessert.
Peach Ice Cream
This is a most delicious cream,
made from very ripe fruit: Peel,
mash and put through a seive u.s.
ing a pint of pulp, or less will
flavor a quart of cream, adding
sugar sirup to sweeten and little
lemon juice to accent the peach
flavor. Almond extract is often
used and we'll liked in peach ice
cream, but with nicely favored
fruit it is not needed.
