or all the dried fruits, raisins are
the most generally used. but. at that,
they are not used half enough. A
cup OF raisins contains 500 calories;
IL is rich in sugar in most dl-
gestibfe form. and it has q distinctly
laxative effect upon the digestion.
Raisins, therefore. are nutritious and
digestible, and they are. moreover.
paaatable and cheap. During the
winter months an average family
should use pound of raisins week,
at least, and it is wise. therefore. to
moist and good in small, covered,
stone crooks.
Raisins are an excellent substitute
for candy. Almost every child likes
them Just as well, and. where the
sugar and chocolate of bought candy
constipated. pale and heavy-eyed. a
handful of clean raiSinS would sat
isfy his craving for sweets and aid,
rather than injure, his digestion.
Be sure the raisins are clean. Look
them over and pick out imperfect
ones. Wash them we'll in a strainerr
set in a bowl. If you wish to seed
them. though you can buy them seed
ed, or children may very well be left
to do that for themselves, pour boil
ing water over a few at a time. drain
and press out the seeds on oiled pa
per on the breadboard with the roll
ing pin.
For children of delicate digestion
the raisins may be soaked and cooked d
very slowly until plump and soft;
For sick children an excellent and
nourishing drink-really unferme nt-
sweet liquor in which raisins are
boiled. No sugar, but little lemon
Juice may be added.

New Gingham Frocks.

Some of the best dressmakers are
making bingham frocks for spring
and summer trimmed with wool en-
broidery. Especially attractive are
those with hens run with wool. One
attractive model made of brown and
white checks has a straight gathered
skirt with a series of three tucks run
inch in length.
Then there are charming little
ginsham dresses made with wool en-
broidered flowers or fruit. How
ever. there is always real wisdom in
making gingham frocks so that they
may be easily washed and ironed
and this woolen embroidery does not
recommed itself on this score. The
wool run tuckS are possible providing
you take the tuck originally in ma
chine stitching. simply using the
wool-running for ornamentation.
One of the greatest advantages in
making gingham dresses at home is
that you may have them Shrunk be-
forehand. 1t is also a good plan to
have the color set before the ma
terial is cut, and this can be done at
the same time that you are shrinking
the goods.
The substances usually used for
setting colors are salt, vinegar, alum
or sugar OF lead. The aforementioned
is a poison, SO it is better not to use
1t. TO set the color IN any material
dissolve in gallon of warm water
one-half cup of strong vinegar. two
cups of salt or one tablespoon of
alum. Mix thoroughly and let the
material soak in this overnight. Dry
before it is admitted to clear water.
In selecting the material for ging-
ham frocks it is always worth while
to pay the price required to get the
best quality. Certain standard makes
of priced gingham are a good
choice. as you may depend on the
quality of these.

Our Evening Gowns.

If the evening frocks this winter
have been very light and filmy. those
promised for next spring are even
more diaphanous. And the summer
frocks are as filmy as could be imag-
lned. They are--mostly made of or
CANDY chiffon or voile; they are short
Sleeved or sleeveless and are gener-
ally cut rather low. All the afternoon
and evening gowns shown for south
ern wear--which will, of course, set
the fashion for next summer-either
leave the arms and shoulders bare, or
cover them very slightly.
So it is imperative that every woman
look to her arms and shoulders and
make sure that they are as pretty as
she can make them. I do not mean
that the woman who is hopelessly
thin need be out of fashion. for styles
are always adaptable for every type
But some of these transparent frocks
are so pretty that I know every young
woman will want to be able to wear
them.
If you are too thin, you canno,
have pretty arms and shoulders un.

One splendid exercise for overcom-

them out, keeping them always so
they touch the floor, and bring them

fact Is of considerable Importance to
users Of ash, hickory, and many other

Manufacturers using ash lumber, for
instance, are much annoyed by the
injury worked by the red-headed ash
borer. Air seasoning has no effect
on the activities of these grubs, but,

The way that man ducked and begged
