with Indigestion so bad that at times it
Just doubled me up. One day one Of
these attacks struck me at my work
and | thought my time had surely
come. | took an hour to walk half a
mile to my home and was afraid l
would never get there alive,
well, | saw several statements
from local people about what a good
medicine Tanlac was, so l began taking
it myself The first bottle helped me
so much that went back for more
and kept on taking it until am now
feeling fine My appetite is so big
that | just want to be eating all the

anything else l want never have any
signs of Indigestion

PROPER COOKING IS SECRET
When Well Cooked cornmeal and oat'
meal Are Most Delicious Por-
ridges for Breakfast.

Cornmeal and oatmeal are among
the cheapest of cereals. and when
well cooked make delicious breakfast
porrldges. The dislike which many
people have for them is because they
are too often served half cooked and
insufiiciently salted. In this condi-
tion they are among the most unat-
tractive of foods, but when well cook
ed and served with cream or rich milk
they are delicious, and there are few
who find them unappetizing.
To make delicious cornmeal mush
for five people use ~ cups of corn
meal. . level teaspoons of salt, and
5 or cups of water Bring the salt
ed water to boil and stir in the corn
meal very slowly. Be careful not to
let It lump. Cook the porridge at
least 80 minutes. The flavor is great
ly improved when It is cooked for
3 hours or over night. This should be
done in double boiler on the back
of the stove or in a fireless cooker.
For oatmeal porridge use 2s cups
of rolled oats, 21s level teaspoons of
salt. and 5 or 6 cups of water. When
the water is boiling, stir the rolled
oats slowly into 1t and cook the por-
ridge for one hour. or, still better.

PREPARING FIGS AND DATES
Fruits Should Be Carefully Washed
Before Eating Because OF Ex-
posure to contagion.

Dried figs and dates should be wash
cd carefully before being eaten as
thev have been exposed for an un-
known length of time to possible con-
tagion by flies and dirty hands. In
how many houses are oranges washed
before they are brought to the table,
or the lemons before they are sliced
for tea or lemonade, or before the
skin is grated for flavoringF Yet
orange and lemon skins often are very
dirty. Shelled nuts purchased In the
market should always be washed

MORE VEGETABLES IN

Salts of Many Kinds Are Needed
for Good Health.
Plentiful Supply Will Keep Children

Appetizing-canned Product
Needs Seasoning.

Vegetables should be freely included
In the winter diet as well as in the
summer one. Doctors say that that
tred-out feeling which many people
have at the end of winter-"sprihs
fever''-often comes from lack OF
fruits and vegetables In the winter
diet Plenty of vegetables keep the
children we'll and make their meals
more appetiZing. Vegetables masheu
and put through q sieve are more
easily digested by little children.
Salts of many kinds are needed by
the body, or it will not work smoothiy'
Vegetables and fruit are rich In them
and If you eat variety you are sure
to get all the kinds of salt you need.
When the water In which vegetapleS
are cooked is thrown away, valuaoie
salts are often wasted. Sometimes
the favor is not desirable, but II IL Is

gravy. An even better process is 10
cook the vegetables in as little water

Then add ~ pounds warm sirup or

Apply liberal coating of the above
mixture to all surfaces of the meat,

The meat should then be placed on a

Leave all the meat in cure undis-
turbed until the heaviest piece has
been in for period of IL days to the

weighs 20 pounds, leave all the meat in
cure 80 days.
Meats cured in sweet pickle or brine
should be consumed within 80 days
from date of cure. Meats cured with
dry cure may be consumed immediate
ly upon removal from cure, but the
flavor improves with age, and the meat
is better 60 days after curing. Dry
cured hams have been known to keep

In the present sugar shortage.it it is
advisable, even If sugar can be pro-
cured to use molasses or some kind of
,jrup in place of 1t in the formulas
used for curing pork, according to
specialists.
II sugar is used for dry curing, it is
better, anyway, to make 1t into sirup
before using, for salt mixed with sugar
will not stick on meat as well as salt
mixed with sirup. The use of molasses
or commercial sirup does away with
this extra work.
The following formulas have been
found to give good results:
Sweet Pickle or Brine Cure.
