longIegs Loses His Temper.
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.


Who keeps his temper we'll in hand
Peter Rabbit.
With that loud thump by Peter Rab-
bit on the bank Of the Smiling Pool
right behind Grandfather Frog things
happened fast. My. I should say so!
Grandfather Frog dived into the wa
ter with q great splash and disap-
peared in the mud at the bottom. out
where the water was deep. Longlegs
the Heron made a quick step and
great bill reached that lily pad where
Grandfather Frog had been sitting
Just too late.
ItTwas provoking. 1t was more
than provoking. He had so nearly
caught Grandfather Frog that the
water was splashed in his face as
that fLonglegs lost his temper. Any
body would have, to have a dinner
disappear just as it was about to be
swallowed. Longlegs turned like
flash. There on the bank sat Peter
Rabbit He looked as If he might
be trying to hug himself with joy
over Grandfather Frogs escape.
L0nglegs knew instantly what had
frightened Grandfather Frog. With
q harsh scream he whirled and start
ed for Peter Rabbit. .and his eyes
fairly blazed with anger; they were
quite terrible Now. Longlegs the
Heron may be awkward looking. but
he can move quickly when he wants
to, and he wanted to now. His legs
are long. as you know. and when he
helps himself along with half-raised
wings he can get over the ground
fast.
Peter was so surprised that he fell
over backward. which was fortunate
for him. That spearlike bill OF Long
legs Just missed him. Feter scram-
bled to his feet and away he went.

When You Can Plums

This is a reliable recipe for can.
ming plums: Weigh the fruit and fol
every pound of plums allow three
fourths of a pound of sugar. Cover
the fruit with the sugar and stand
aside for two hours. Only put
enough fruit to fll two quart cans
in the preserving kettle at a time
Bring it to the boiling point and put
in the cans at once. This recipe Is
successful with blue or green plums
The green sort should first be pricked
with a fork so that they will not
crack.
Here is a recipe for sweeter canned
plums than those prepared according
to the recipe given above: Allow
pound of sugar to every pound OF
fruit. Put the plups in boiling wa
ter until the skins will come of read
lily. Then peel them and pot them In
layers In a large earthep bowl with
grsnulated sugar between the layers.
Let them stand overnight and the
next morning pour of the juice that
ing point in a porcelain kettle. Skim
1t and add the fruit. Simmer for
thirty minutes. and then remove the
piums with . skinner. Cool them and
boil the juice till thick. Then put
thesplums In jars, pour the juice over
them and seal.
Sngared plums are a winter treat.
either as sweetmeats or to stew for
luncheon To make them, select
large plums and cut them in two.
Stone them and dredge them in pow
dered sugar. Lay them on shallow
dishes in a moderate oven for half an
hour and then lay them on sheets of
glass to dry. Pack and keep In a dry
place.
Canned plums should be well washed
before canning. Then they should
be cracked in three or four places so
that they will keep their shape and
not burst when they are cooked. The
seed should be big, and boiled to
sterilize it. For greengages. which
are sourer than other plums. allow
three-auarters of a pound of sugar
to a pound Of fruit. and for other
piums allow half as much sugar as
fruit Place the fruit and sugar in
layers in a preserving kettle and let it
stand overnight. In the morning
bring it to the boiling point and can.

Buttermik.

Buttermllk.
Not long ago 1 deprecated the mar
keting Of such a food as wheat in a
canned state. not because there is
anything very Objectionable or in
furious in canned wheat. but because
wheat is easily obtainable and will
keep anywhere and may be cooked
when needed just as easily as any
other undenaturized cereal. More
over, to my mind it seems doubtful
that wheat will retain it's vitamtnes
as well when cooked and canned as
it does when kept in the natural dry
state.
to he that some manufacturer must
take all our food and either purify
or refine" it or put 1t through some
mysterious process" before 1t Is quite
fit for US to eat.
Even such a simple and wholesome
beverage as buttermilk is nowadays
subjected to the seal of approval OF
some manufacturer before it is offered
to the consumer. in many communi-
ties. I>quote from a business letter
sent to all the physicians OF a city oy
one such manufacturer:
that buttermilk is liquid meat. with
the fat trimmed off, for 1t contains all
the ingredients of fresh milk, except
the-cream-the most indigestible and
biliousness producing element in the
milk. Buttermilk Is also partly dl-
rested, for the reason that the caesin
fat has been split up into fine and
Aocculent curds and the milk acidu-
lated, saving the stomach this work..
The spelling and punctuation and
English used in the letter are little
worse than the physiology abused
1RnOr.
apce is curious to behold.
1t would be nearer the truth to say
that buttermilk has only half the nu-
tritive or food value of plain milk and
much less than half its value in vita
mines And it is this ignorant manu-
facttrer's personal theory merely that
butter fat is more indigestibfe than
cheese-a rather strange theory, too,
for a manufacturer Of butter.
A great deal of undeserved repute
Evening star., 1921-07-26

, attaches to buttermilk and soured
milk as beverages. These fermented
preparations. all Of them. from nat
ural buttermilk to the fancy trade
some enough for most persons to
drink. perhaps even beneficial in GER
tain digestive difficulties and intestl-
nal conditions, but that is about all.
Metchnikoff's theory. that one should
take a pint Of soured SKINNED milk
every day (skimmed milk boiled five
minutes. then cooled to lukewarm or
about body temperature and sowed
with a culture of Bulgarian bacillus
to sour it,. has little to support 1t.
There is no good reason to imagine
that any particular breed or brand of
fancy title, will accomplish any more
than those present in ordinary butter
milk.

can do so kindly advise me. q. L. M
Answer.-very brief periods Of ex-
posure to the sun three times day
not over five minutes each time-at
first. Increase the duration of ex-
posure not over five minutes the sec
ond day, and so on. until you can
stand an hour or two at time with
out burning The tanning will follow
in due course. A light complexion
naturally burns with less sun expos
ure than dark complexion. and more
care is necessary for that. reason. If
exposure is prolonged, it is well to
smear the zinc oxide ointment over
the sensitive parts of the skin. and
then a heavy coating of talcum
sprinkled over that, as protection.

Special Chicken Sandwiches.

Mince some cold roast chicken in
a chopping bowl, then mix the gravy
with it, adding few hard-boiled
eggs, which have been chopped very
fine, and add salt and pepper. Mix all
into a soft paste; then cut some thin
slices Of bread. butter them and
spread the chicken mixture between
the slices. Press them gently to-
gether, spread a napkin on a plate
and arrange the sandwiches neatly
on this.

The Old Gardener Says:

Are the worms eating your
cabbages? Try this simple plan
to get rid of them. Take a few
leaves from your tomato plants
and put two or three in each
cabbage. This is said to be a
surrremedy. but you will be
wise at the same time to have
a. supply of hellebore on hand
with which to dust the plants
if it doesn't work. 1t is really
safe enough to use arsenate Of
lead, but many garden makers
do not like to use such power
full poison on cabbaGes. Even
lime and road dust have some
value, but hellebore is most
efficient.
