Bottle feeding is by no means a
simple thing to do. II it had no
other disadvantages, this alone
should deter some mothers from too
hasty weaving of their young babies.
Bottles must be filled carefully and
looked after properly during the
summer months, when deadly bac-
terra can Turk and grow to healthy
proportions in poorly washed milk
bottles.
As soon as the child is through
with the bottle it should be washed
out, rinsed in cold water and let
stand until regular time for clean
ing. Don't wash each bottle as it is
| emptied, do them all at n time,
usually the first thing in the morn
ing.
Wash in hot soapy water, using a
good bottle brush. Rinse and put or
to boil in cold water. When the
water is bubbling, take out, turn
upside down, and leave to cool. Bot
ties should be cold when filled.
The nipples should be rinsed and
washed and put aside in a jar Of
soda water. Once or twice a week
they should be brought to a boil.
They should always be the kind thai

Meatless Summer
Dishes Popular
AT This Time

I wonder IL all housekeepers find
It as hard to think of appetizing
luncheon and supper dishes as I dol
One must avoid too much meat
and yet serve dishes which may
contain some meat, be attractive
and appetizing and sufficient.
A variety Of breads help a good
| deal, as they always please the fam
lily. Some of the bread dough may
be kept In the ice box and used as
needed. One day hot rolls, made
! richer by the addition of butter,
sugar and possibly an egg. Anoth-
er day. cinnamon, sugar and ralsint
will make the plain dough into most
attractive cinnamon rolls. When
making the bread into ~loaves, knead
raisins into sufficient dough for one
leaf Raisin bread is a delight to
, both children and grownups.
Biscuit dough made with baking
powder or sour milk and soda, may
| be treated in the same manner as
yeast bread.
For a supper out of doors, try fill

mustard and lemon juice. They are
very tasty"
French toast Is made by soaking
| stale bread in egg and milk to which
are added salt and sugar. These
soaked slices of bread are then
sauteed in butter until a delicate
brown. Serve with jelly or preserved
fruit.
A pleasant change from white
bread toast Is toasted brown or
graham bread, dipped into a cream

Cooked macaroni may be mixed
with bits of leftover meat and to-
mato sauce; cooked rice combined
with meat, fish or bacon. These are
all hearty supper dishes and may
be prepared after breakfast or din

Aspiring venuses

A man in New York City has, ac-

probably the most fascinating job
in the world. He is the man who
interviews hundreds of girls anxious
to go on the stage.
It is he who sizes up their degree
of beauty, and determines the CORES
ponding lack of talent the theatre
going public will stand for.
Yet his is a tremendous RESPONSE

remark you should see what ]

les become numerous.
Every man who has paid $3.50
plus war tax to see the Tottie Twink
letoes considers himself a good pick
err of feminine beauty, and it is nc
trouble at all for him to select the
best-looking member of the chorus.
But there has to be a system
about everything-some degree OF
100 per cent American. And this
modern Paris who awards the prize
jobs to aspiring Venuses has his
card index, too.

girls who are tall, beautiful anC

Glass B girls are delightful on this
