PRESERVED PEACHES
GOOD FOR A CHANGE
Characteristic Flavor Not
Harmed BY Short Cooking.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The merit Of this recipe lies In the
fact that the characteristic flavor Of
fresh peaches Is not destroyed by the
short cooking, and is well preserved
when the peaches are embedded in
jelly. Even in those cases where the
jelly falls to set well because Of ex-
cess of juice or lack of pectin, the
product should still be found worth
while because Of its superior flavor.
Many fruits which are delicious In
flavor when fresh change altogether
when cooked long time or made into
preserve the usual way. BY jellying
sliced peaches in the way described, an
unusual product is obtained. The same
idea can be applied to raspberries,
strawberries, pineSppies and other
fruits which do not, as rule, lend
themselves well to jelly-making De
partment Circular 254 gives directions
for preparing the pectin extracts to
make these jellied fruits and separate
recipes for each one.

New and Artistic
Sweaters in Mode
Winsome Models Have Both
Practical and Pictur-
esque Value.

Sweaters have become so important
q part OF woman's dress that some
OF the best designers are giving their
attention to the creation of new and
artistic models. The utility garment,
having no claim whatsoever to Hooks"
has long been in the market, but the
comfort and the ease of it and the
steadily increasing popularity of
sports dress spurred the modistes to
develop the possibilities of the sweat

suit, notes a fashion authority in the
New York Times, has been a great
variety of models having both prac-
teal and picturesque value, and in
consequence a broadening of the field
in the designing of all forms of the
sweater and in its use.
The types of sweater now in vogue
are bewildering as to material, form
and color. For service at the seashore
or the mountains, for cross-country
hikes. motoring, yachting and innum-
cradle other purposes there are sweat
ers of lightweight wool, knitted or
woven, or cut from cloth. These en-
ploy the most vivid decorative colors
and some of them are swagger in the
extreme, effacing the memory Of the
first models, seasons past, which were
dreary, monotonous things, usually of
gray or brown or flannel red. The
combining of silk with wool of thistle
down weight in the knitted sweaters is
done with success, making them both
useful and ornamental, for the wool
provides the necessary warmth, and

this sort has the advantage of being

Wide Belt Fad Makes
Favorable Impression

Last summer belts could not be mar
row enough. This season instead Of
mere strips of coIored leather one
sees belts anywhere from three to
five inches wide. This is new fash
ion note that has quietly crept into
the modes of the summer but it Ia
one of distinct Importance. Sports
frocks of gay plaided flannel are COM
pleted by wide belts of suede or pat
ent leather that repeat in color the
dominant shades in the design, and
even bathing suits of vivid printed
silks or hand-5locked linens are dis.
tinguished as being Of this years mode
by their extremely wide belts. Need
less to say a fashion of this kind is
only to be taken up by the slim. How
ever, when properly worn, there is
a certain chic about these wide belts
that accounts for theil undoubted
vogue.

rect mode Of the hour. The light
weight fabrics of alluring downy tex
ture which are fashioned into these
coats comprise both plain and pat

angora cloth, of isoftest touch, is the
chosen material for the handsome coat
in the picture. 1t is smartly detailed,
with a plain cloth border, large collar,
generous sleeves. deep armhole and

No doubt, if this coat Of up to-the-
moment style were thrown open. it
would reveal gay printed Deauville

fascinating appeal.
There is atmosphere of charm about
these practical mid-season coats. Els

Fashion Picks Fabrics,
Regardless of History

No longer is there any hard and
fast rule as to the use Of materials
Fashion seizes upon anything that
suits her fancy and with unbelievable
adroitness adapts the fabric to her
needs. On one hand she uses velyets
and satins for bathing suits, while
on the other chintzes and linens, for
merly reserved for the see purpose
of being made into hangings and slip
covers, now fashion the most engag-
ing costumes. Little short coats OF

1t is an open question whether the

Wired tulle flowers are the latest

by the Partisan coutouriers. Flowers

seasons past. This year the finest,

If the children are interested In
their own school lunches and are
taught how to pack them properly,
they will not only take this task off
the mothers hands, but help to sug-
gest foods which give the necessary
variety for well-balanced diet. Chill
dren should be taught to prepare sand
wiches well and to pack them neatly
In waxed paper SO they will neither
fall to pieces nor dry out before they
are to be eaten. An occasional dis

lunch will lead to surprisingly good
suggestions from the children them

or what other children bring.
In packing the lunch basket every
precaution should be taken to keep

Washable napkins may be used in

and are likely to be lost.
Sandwiches, sweet foods and fruits

are four simple things that one should
do:
First, apply half-strength tincture
Of iodine to the wound, or better, use
glass ampoules. Never apply near
the eyes, between the thighs or for
wounds Of the intestines. It is a mis-
take to wash the injury. Iodine is a
destroyer of germs, and is very eff
fective, as war surgeons proved.
Second, apply sterile piece Of
gauze, folded into a convenient pad.
Third, wrap this dressing with a ster-
lie gauze bandage. Fourth, fasten the
bandage with adhesive plaster. 1t is
simple to do, but it may save much
suffering later"

ridden the Imperialists' opposition.
Situate near the Russian shores. with
a landlocked harbor it was stretching
out an impotent hand for trade No
railway connected Rokugozaki with
Fushiki. The sand was shifting.
Not until Gordon of Sanderson's
company presented a report did the
Liberals feel confident enough to start
action. In the preliminary stage the
Imperialists did little more than
clamor Fushiki would be desecrated |!
Worse, they would not receive an ex-
cellent interest for lending their
money to some japanese concern. 1t
was thing unheard Of objection af-
ter objection was overruled. Only one
sop was tossed to them: the work
must be done at a definite, stated time
that was none too long as Gordon re-
minded Williams and Wells before
they departed.
The sop" was more than the Lib
erals imagined. If, as old Marakito,
the Imperialist spokesman, pointed to
his friends, the seiyo-j jim did moot live
up to the letter of the agreement, it
would be exceedingly difficult for the
Liberals to give foreign capital more
work. For his part-and Marakito
winked slyly-he would surely do any
thing to expedite matters.

Marakito found many little ways to
hamper the Sanderson job. Sacks of
concrete disappeared, to filter away In
the water, when most needed. The
donkey engine missed, as Wells re-
marked, either leg or an ear every
night, and the wires were kept hot
with orders for more parts, until Cor
don wanted to know If the boys were

bridge.
