TATrENING WINTER FOODS.

Christmas season is bad time
for the woman who has made 10
her mind to reduce. All Christmas
delicacies seem to be fattening,
and the spirit of the entire season,
that of eating as much as one can
possibly manage.
First of all everyone gives can
dy. Everyone eats candy. Now
one chocolate cream has a caloric
value of 100. 1t may be that in
order to reduce you should not eat
more than $500 or 1000 calories
of food every day. If you ate ID
or 20 chocolate creams (and l have
seen many women eat that much
or more during a matinee), you
will have eaten your entire days
allowance Of nourishment. One
pound of chocolate has a calori'
value of 5,625, more than two
days nourishment you see.
Turkey itself, Is not so fatten-
ing, but thick gravy is, Thick soup
Is very fattening and the delicious
turkey stuffing which no one can
resist will help tip the scales and
add few pounds. Every Christ
mas dinner has potatoes (Which
are forbidden the stout woman),
usually also yams or sweet pota-
toes, which are doubly fattening

the handkerchief. Now take the
handkerchief, wave It about you
In the air. then open the handker-
chief and show the spectators that
you have restored the match to it's
former whole state. The secret of
this trick consists In having a du-
pllcate match hidden in the hern
of the handkerchief from the very
beginning. The marked match IS
simply lodged in a fold of the
handkerchief and the one in the
hem is brought up to the center
and put into the hands of the spec
tator to be broken to bits. the hem
serving to retain these pieces. The
marked match thus remains whole,
ready to fall out when you finish
your mysterious invocations."

WHAT'S A PLUM
PUDDING THESE
DAYS, ANYWAY?
nv KoRA INSTRUMENTATION.

| BY kORA HEMRY-MEACHA
When is an English plum pud-
ding not English? when 1t is made
la American, sans brandy and
with added things that the British
never used.
Mrs NJ. A. Brennan had charge
of the program at the Woman's
club on Friday and was assisted
by Mesdames Arthur Nye, b. H.
Porter, 4. G. Winfrey and Emily
f. Labelle. 1t being domestic sci
ence day the matter of puddings
was discussed and demonstrated.
Mrs. Labelle was particularly
whimsical in her exposition of the
old English pudding, its va
rious ingredients and processes,
and the long hours of preparation
eight hours of continuous boiling,
four when you reheat 1t for serv-
ing. Needless to say, the institu-
ton of the pudding began before
the days of bridge and movies
when the domestic housewife spent
her days sewing and disciplining
her children and when pudding
making must have been a wildly
exciting diversion along about
Christmas time. The American
plan of substituting orange juice
Tor brandy in Mrs. Labelle's recipe
brought forth some smiles but no
applause. When Mrs. Winfrey's
recipe was read calling for wine
and brandy the question was
asked, what does she substitutes"
the inference from her silence was
that she doesn't substitute, at any
rate the two buildings were deli
cious and perfect examples of cul-
mary art.
Mrs. Brennan presented a very
enjoyable program. Mrs S. B, Mil
Ter sang in excellent voice "MOrn-
ing" and ITO You" with Mrs. Louis
b. Thompson at the piano. Mari
ano Garcia again charmed the club
with two piano numbers; the
List Rhapsody" which compos
or seems his fayorite, and Chopin'S
"Imprompt" being, as Mr.. Garcia
said, one OF the first pieces to gain
his serious attention as a student
of music.
Mrs. Ernest Garcia gave a mu-
steal reading, accompanied by Mrs
r. II. Hogrefe. Her selection was
an old Christmas legend by Ray
mond Alden, "Why the Chimes
| Rang" 1t was done in Mrs. Gar
cia's Away effective manner. her
facial expression being so mobile
registering the emotions indicated,
so clearly in advance of the words
that words seemed almost SUI
perfluous.
Mrs. A. ]. Gould announced
request from the Girls Welfare
home for used victrola records as
an evidence of the club members
interest in the Christmas celebra-
ton at the institution. She also
stated that the foundation of the
institution was one of the achieve,
ments of the Woman's club. There
will be no more meeting of the
club until January 2 OF the new
year. Adjournment followed
short board meeting.

While 1t amused her, Margaret
also felt a bit worried because Of
Joan's confession. She laughed
when she thought of the name she
had applied to the stately Mrs.
Thompson, then grew more serious
when she recalled Joan's naive
manner of deciding whether she
liked Ted or Malcolm the best, But
she could only watch and await
developments. Joan was always
popular. Her freedom of speech
and manner, her breeZiness, her
familiarity with outdoor sports
made her a much sought compan-

and girls. Margaret knew she had
made no idle boast when she said
she was bound to be popular in
college.
But the idea of an engasement
ring having a "moral effect" the
serious way Joan had spoken was
really too ridiculous. And yet in
way she had been right. She had
meant that owing fealty to some
one person might keep her from
being too friendly with others.

FARM INVENTORY IS
INDEX TO PROGRESS
Practicable Way of Answering
important Questions.
Bulletin Recently Issued by Depart
ment Of Agriculture Enables Farm
or to Determine Exactly His
Financial Status.

What is the net worth of your farm
business? Is It more or less than one
would imagine from a casual inspec-
ton Of your farmf@ Do you know for
sure whether you are going or coming
In financial standing?
These are important questions to
the farmer, and questions that are not
so easily answered as would at first
appear. Farming Is an intricate bust
ness, and one In which returns from
investment are sometimes long de-
layed, so that progress cannot be &C
curately measured by the amount Of
money taken in a given time. Some
times cash income may be almost
wholly attributable to reduction In
other assets, so that in reality the re-
suit is like taking money from one
pocket and putting 1t In another.
The farm inventory. or property
list, offers the only practicable way of
answering these questions. Once the
farmer has made a complete list of
all his assets and liabilities and has
balanced them he knows just what his
net worth Is, and when he has made
such list annually he knows each
year whether he has gone forward or
back and just how much has been the
increase or decrease In the net worth
Of his business.
The United States Department OF
Agriculture has just issued Farmers
Bulletin 1882 entitled Farm Inven-
tories" in which are given detailed in
structions for making an inventory OF
farm property and revising such list
from year to year. BY using the sim
pie system described in this bulletin
any farmer can determine exactly his
financial status and lay the founda-
ton for a permanent system of ac-
counting. Without the farm inven-
tory as basis no system of account
ing that might he chosen would be Of
any great use to the farmer.

An examining physician for one of the

so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the

that they have the disease. II is on sale

COVER CROP IMPROVES SON.
All Rubbish. Dead Vines or Plants,
Stakes and Poles Should Be
Cleared Away and Ground
Planted to Green Crop.

Whether 1t is conducted on an ex-
tensive scale to supply the market or
whether 1t is to produce food for the
family the garden plot is, likely to be
the most profitable acreage on the
farm. Gardening really starts In the
fall. When the last vegetables have
been removed and stored the prudent
gardener sets about to prepare the
ground for the next years crop.
Clearing Away Refuse.
Any rubbish, dead vines or plants,
and bean poles or tomato stakes should
be cleared away. says the United
States Department of Agriculture,
and the ground sown to rye or some
other green crop to prevent the loose
earth from washing under the winter
rains. A cover crop also improves
the physical condition of the soil.
When cover crop cannot be supplied
the next best thing that may be done
is to plow or spade the soil and allow
IT to lie rough throughout the winter.
This practice destroys many insects
that lie just below the surface. The
