RECIPES FOR CAMPERS.
By LAURA A. HERMAN.


 In publishing the following recipes for campers, l have omitted to men tion pancakes in the belief that all campers Know how to make them. The question that puzzles the amateur camp cook is, What shall serve be- side pancakes?'' The coarser grains and cereals answer this question: helped out with canned goods and whatever game or fresh produce can be obtained near the camping spot So I have dealt with these coarser grains, chiefly:
 Cereal Scrapple: Any cooked cereal at all, will make this Simply cook it as if to eat for breakfast, but in stead let it cool in a shallow pan, mixed with a generous amount of chopped, crisply-fried bacon and sea- soned to taste with salt. When cool and solid, cut into slices and fry. Serve hot. (Fine with fish.) Buttercakes: Stir into I cup of sweet milk ? well-beaten eggs, F teaspoon cream or tartar, 1 cup of cream (evaporated cream will serve the purpose, a pinch of salt, 1 table spoon melted butter and enough flour to make a stiff batter. Drop this in rounds on a buttered griddle which is not too hot, and turn as to brown i both sides Put little butter on the 1 top of each before serving. (There is a decided knack about making these, but practise will bring results) i Rice Fritters: Boil rice till tender | then drain and to every cups of it l allow l egg; mix well, season with salt and pepper and fry in a hot fry ing pan. Serve with sirup.
 Steamed Cornbread: Mixed and sift cups of cornmeaI and 1 cup ot bread flour, then mix into this ? cups of sour milk in which teaspoons ot soda have been dissolved, F cuI molasses, and 2 teaspoons salt. Turr this into a pail with a tight-f1ttinE cover, tying on the cover with string then place this small pail in a largel raj iI1IT no In tor a
 the water boil up around the small
 pail for 2 F hours, and the bread i

 Baked Corn Dish: Turn a can O corn into a crock and stir into it
 egg and seasonings to suit taste
 Cover this vessel and bury it in tn
 hot embers of a camp fire, leaving i there for an hour or more. The1 eat (good even when cold-) The eg, in this recipe may be omitted if mor'
 convenient.
 Camp Johnny Cake: Allow F tea spoon salt to l cup of cornmeal. Mi ] this with enough hot water to mak, a soft batter (that is, soft enough tt
 stir easily, yet not to run, for tn cakes must keep their shape.) A lit tie milk improves the cakes, also al l spoonful of this batter on a medium hot griddle for each cake and pa ! down to F inch in thickness. Le l cook slowly enough to do then through, and turn to brown on bot | sides.
 Another Good Baked Dish: (con
 tributed by a reader) Put 1 quar of sweet milk into a crock as de scribed above for Baked Corn, am stir into it F cup of sugar and cups of uncooked grapenuts. An eg makes it richer, but is not necessary . Bury in embers as above describe
 and serve cold. Cit will be soli ! when the grapenutS Sweu.)) Tomorrow-Can One Furnish Toda for Two Thousand Dollars?

SHIP READY TO BEGIN
 POLAR EXPEDITION
Famous Explorer to Probe Mysteries of Antarctic Seas - Vessel Is Well Equipped.

London, Aug. 22.-5Che small two masted auxiliary schooner Quest, in which Sir Ernest Shackleton and his party of eighteen explorers will soon be nrobing the mysteries of the Ant arctic seas, is nearing the completion of her fitting out ill Southampton docks.
 Sir Ernest ShackIeton. who is ex- pecting to start about the second week in August, has expressed him. self well pleased with the work so far done.
 The Quest, which was built in Nor way and first intended for sealing in the White Sea, is very strongly built, her hull being of stout timber with the bows reinforced with steel. She was first rigged as a Retch, but has now been altered to schooner rig ged.
 Various other alterations have been made a substantial deckhouse with several navigating and sea-soundlng g compartments being built forward ot
 the bridge, all unnecessary space be low being done away with and com fortable quarters being made TOT her tiny crew.
 In the engine room five kilowatt dynamo has been fitted with one and one-haIf kilowatt wireless set capable of a 400 mile radius by day and 1 900 miles at night
 A ten-inch searchlight has been fitted on the bridge, and the interior of the vessel is electrically lighted. The Quests speed is seven and one-haIf knots under sail and eight knots under steam The engines are a small compound set, and at present she is fitted with an ordinary four bladed propelIor, but at Capetown thls will be replaced by a spec1al two bIaded one. designed for hard Work among the ice.
 In the bows a whale gun has been fitted which will be in the soIe charge of Ca ptain Erikson, who ac. comp panied Shack1eton on ms last voyage of discovery.
 Carries Seaplane. The most interesting feature ol the ship. however, is small space or the port side, underneath the ooa' deck. where the fuselage of very small seap1ane will be slung, the en- zine and wings being slowed Tn the fore hold This will be used for va rious flights over ice which will be imDossible to otherwise reconno1tre and can fly about 400 miles. Besides the ordinary crew, who aIe all old and trusted seamen, there VII be two surgeons, two hydrographlca experts and Boy Scout cabin boy. Sir Ernest Shackleton expects tc find many new islands and small seas and altogether will be absent 1ol about three years.

Beauty Chats

By EDNA KENT FORBES.

MENT.
 When we talk about beauty treat mentS we come down finally to one principle that what the face needs mostly is simply stimulation. If you go out for a walk in the cold air, the wind stimulates the skin and you come in with Q. clear complexion and glowing cheeks, and wonderful feeling of freshness. When you go salt water, sting and stimulate the skin, and do it a great deal of good
 But there is nothing in our every day life to stimulate the skin. and much to harm it. Therefore a little artificial stimulation is good thing You can give yourself stimulating treatment every time you wash your face.
 If you have an oil skin you need not use cold cream, but if you have a dry skin massage the fact with little cold cream first because the Stimu- lating treatment is more vigorous than the ordinary fash. First of all, wiring an old towel from hot water, hold it over the face and repeat two or three times until the skin is red and glowing. Then use your cold cream if the skin is dry. In any case rub in little father from a mild soap, preferably castillo. Then rinse with hot water
 Rinse again with cold water to close the pores of the skin. Is pos sible follow this by five or ten min ute rub with a piece of ice. There is better 4OI ldi 50 pores, for making the skin fine and for bringing color into the face than an ice rub. If you cannot get ice, very cold water with a little salt in it is an excellent substitute.
 Brown Eyes; M- S. H.; D. M.; Grace F.: Met; Reader; Gainin Waite; Doris; Green Eyes: In a re- duction diet, the things to avoid are the foods that contain starch, sugar and oils. Among these foods will be found almost all the vegetables that bread, rich pastry and fat meats. | The choice of food for reducing will 1 be the vegetables that are not in the above collection, except corn, and all most all fruit. Grapes and bananas are fattening. Beef, lamb, chicken, l fish and all other sea foods may bei eaten. Cream and butter are fatten- i ing. but skinned milk is not. | G. G.:-The formula sent you fq
