TWO Ice Cream Recipes.

Coffee and caramel creams mado
with custard foundation.-To pre-
pare the latter melt three table.
spoonfuls Of granulated sugar with a
quarter of a cupful Of water and cook
the syrup to a dark brown caramel,
stirring constantly to prevent burn
ing. Add gradually two cupfuls OF
boiling water and a cupful of sugar,
and let the syrup cook rapidly for
fifteen minutes. In the meantime,
put pint Of milk over to boil in a
double boiler, add the caramel syrup
and when it reaches the boiling point
add the beaten yoils of three eggs.
Let the custard boil up once, stirring
all the time to prevent curdlinG. Then
remove from the fire, let it cool, add
pint Of cream and freeze.
The success of coffee ice cream is
naturally dependent on the quality Of
the coffee used. French cooks use
pulyerized Mocha and impart the
flavor by infusion. Put pint of milk
in a double boiler, aud when it reaches
the boiling point add the yolks Of six
eggs that have been beaten up with a
cup of granulated sugar. Cook until
it coats the spoon, then remove from
the fire and cool. Heat a pint of
cream to the boiling point, and then
add heaping tablespoonful of pow.
dered Mocha coffee. Remove to the
back of the stove, cover with a nap.
kin, and let the coffee infuse in the
cream for half an hour. Strain the
. cream through cheesecloth, add to
the custard and freeze.

To Prevent ChafinG.

The person with sensitive skin is

summer. This is so annoying and
painful that every precaution should
be taken to overcome it.
Absolute cleanliness is essential
and the rubbed spots should be freely
washed with a pure soap and water.
DO not make the mistake Of using
grease for chafed skin. This softens,
and increases rather than decreases
the tendency.

necessary Of human industries suf
fer neglect. During the great war.
millions Of words and tons or paper
were used in advice and exhortarIUn
to the farmers of this country. as
suring them that without their hep,
the war would be lost, and the farm
ers responded to the utmost limit Of
their resources and energies. Now
that the war is over we as farmers
do not ask more than is properly
ours. We raise no issue Of class
against class but we claim the right
to demand that the men and women
who feed and clothe the nation snail
have voice in its affairs in reason
able proportion to their numbers
and service.
The Grange has q place in history
because it has served agriculture and
humanity. 1t will continue to hold
its place as long as it is of service TO
the farmer and his family. to the
community. the State and the Nation.
The question of a more profita bic
agriculture or the further depopuia-
ton Of rural Maine is squarely in
front of us. and pertinent questions
affecting the ultimate result are
Public Highways, Rural Educational
Advantages, Taxation. Control Of
Railways. Telephone Lines and Wa
ter Powers. the Country Church.
, Methods OF Marketing. Transporta-
tion and Distribution.
To study these problems, to work
FOR their solution, to bring out the
moral issues involved. for ourselves
and our posterity; this is a part Of
the broad field Of our labor. Not only
the lecturer. but the entire MEMBER
snip should constantly keep in mind
that the ultima te purpose Of the lee
ture hour IL for education as well as
entertainment and not only to edu-
cate the hearers. but to promote in
dividual development. which can only
be obtained by personal effort on
. the part OF the members themselves.
IL is essential that good attend
ance shall be had at the meetings
This can in part be secured by pro-
Viding good. enjoyable entertainment
and at the same time weaving into
the program enough discussions. es-
! says and addresses on subjects vita,
TO the prosperity of agriculture, and
OF especial interest to the commup-
ity in which the grange is located
so that all may feel they have re-
ceived as a result of the meetings
enough worth while to pay for at
tending them.
A summary of the reports from
the lecturers Of subordinate oranges

work has been accomplished: Tota,
