is a sort of self f-destruction. The de-
sire for some bit of pleasure or prop
erty or beauty comes to every human
being. 1t should stimulate him to
effort. The wisher takes 1t out in
wishing and so drugs his struggling
mind to sleep.
You wish? Then go out and get
busy! That's the way the world goes
round.

You missed the great primal thing
little Marquise. You missed the
greatest thing, the most wonderfully
miraculous and ecstatic thing that
can come to a woman. 1t is the one
thing that makes her glad she is a
woman and not a man.

must always dwell within the shad

DIAL Of foolishness in that tradition
which has been disseminated. that a
mother has different feeling for the
child she has borne than the child
she has adopted when it is very
young and brought up as one of her
own.
It Is the constant living with and
seeing the little bodies and souls
and minds grow that makes a mother
love her own. Nowadays, when a
woman Is apt to take narcotic
and know very little of birth pains.
motherhood does not mean just the
matter. Of birth: It means the matter
of constant care and love with which
a woman surrounds a child that liz
constantly in her household as well
as in her heart.

cases of heat prostration death may

chance, however, If treatment is ap-
piled in time to save the patient. 1t
is IL good rule to always be on your
guard. If you feel yourself getting
dizzy or becoming faint with the ten
dency to stomach sickness seek a cool
place at once and lie down.
The layman may aid in giving sim
pie, treatment to those suffering from
heat prostration. Remove to a cool
place. If the heart action is weak
ened and the skin Is cold be sure to
place the patient in recumbent
position. +.t
Give stimulants and keep body
warm. if the head and skin are
hot and the eyes red and heavy, APP
ply cold water, or rub the surface of
the skin with ice. Gentle rubbing
or massage to stimulate the circua-
ton Is beneficial If this simple
treatment does not bring results and
the patient remains unconscious, do
your best until a physician arrives.

VEGETABLE MARsIALADEs

There are a few vegetables thai
make delicious and unusual sweets
Carrots are especially good. The
vegetable marrow can be used. Bects
are attractive and combine we'll with
fruits and tomatoes alone or, in com.
bination, make conserves that are
heartily appreciated during winter,
| There is distinct saving in the
use of vegetables. They are cheaper
, than fruit in the first place and make
| 1t possible to decrease the amount OF
sugar in the second. The vegetable
acts as a sort of filler or foundation
while the fruit simply adds flavor.
OF course vegetable marmalade Is
not as rich as an entire fruit sweet
but for everyday use in a family with
| children the imitation" marmalade
| is desirable.
Imitation Orange Marmalade
One pound carrots. . oranges,
lemon, cups sugar.

oranges and lemon and squeeze out

rinds, sugar to carrots and simmer till
thick and Jelly like. Pour into
sterilized glasses and cover with
paraffin when cool. 1t will not take
long cooking to make the marmalade,
as there is much pectin in lemon
rind.
Imitation Apricot Marmalade
One pound carrots, lemons, 4
cups sugar, 80 blanched almonds, IA
teaspoon pisttachio fiavoring.
Wash and scrape carrots. Put
through food chopper and cook in
boiling water to cover till tender.
Crate the yellow rind from the lemons
and squeeze out the juice. Add juice
ard grated rind to carrots. Shred al
monds and add. Add more water if
necessary to prevent burning. Cook
slowly till thick. Add pistachio
when removing from the fire. Pour
into sterilized glasses and seal at
once.
Green Tomato Marmalade
Five pounds green tomatoes, 5
lemons, tablespoons minced ginger,
S cups sugar.
Wash tomatoes and cut in slices.
They should be very green without
trace of red. Put in a large crock,
cover with cold water and let stand
over night. In the morning drain

lemon juice, grated rind and minced
ginger to tomato with just enough

back about it. Percy Pickerel hash t

onto his body. He couldn't wear a

That's not my fault" Mr.. Bear
declared.
Big Foot paid no heed to this re-
