Mystery Hangs Over
ProDhesies of Enoch

The first trace of the existence Of
the Book Of Enoch is found in the
Eplstle of st. Jude, verse IA, in which
reference is made to the prophesies
Of Enoch from which st. Jude quotes,
but it is uncertain whether he de-
rfves his quotations from tradition or
from writing, although the wide spread
Of the book in the Second century
seems almost decisive in favor of the
latter %supposition. Considerable frag-
ments are preserved In the "Chrono-
graphia" Of Georgius Syncellus (about
792 A. ID, and these, with the scanty
notices of earlier writer's, constitute
the sole remains of the book known
in Europe till the close of the Eight
zenith century.
A report was current that the en-
tire book vas preserved In Abyssinia,
and at length in 1918 Bruce brought
with him on his return from Egypt
three manuscripts containing the com
plete Ethiopic translation. The ETH
opic translation was made from the
Greek, and probably toward the mid
die or close of the Fourth century.
But it is uncertain whether the Greek
text was the original, or itself a trans
lation from the Hebrew. In its pres
ent shape the book consists of a Sc
ries Of revelations supposed to have
been given to Enoch and Noah which
extend to the most varied aspects of
nature and life, and are designed to
offer a comprehensive indication of
the action of Providence.
Notwithstanding the quotation in
st. Jude and the wide circulation Of
the book itself, the apocalypse Of
Enoch was uniformly and distinctly
separated from the canonical Scrip
lures.

Pajon,os After This

A coed at Indiana university was
sending her washing to a woman in
town instead of sending it home, as
so many of the students do. The
clothes always came back with a neat
list of the clothes included with the
price after each. The coed had a ia
yorite blouse that she wore to classes,
which was often in the wash. 1t usu-
ally headed the list: "Blouse-20
cents"
One day the regular washwoman
was sick and a neighbor did the work.
This time the list read, "one-half a
pajama-6 cents" 1t was the same
garment. The coed hopes the same
mistake win be made in the future, be-
cause seemingly as much care was
taken with the half a pajama as with
a street blouse.-Indianapolis News.

A striking scheme of irrigation
which will tap the Huancabama river
IN the eastern Andean slopes and di-
vert the water through q nine-mile
tunnel to the western side of the
range, where it win be connected with
four or FIVE other rivers and form a
permanent water supply for 10000
arid acres on the coastal plain, is an
innovation in irrigation plans now
under way In northern Peru. Forty
million cubic feet Of river water will
reach the rice fields and sugar plan
tations of Chiclayo and L~ambayeque

PROPER FOOD FOR SCHOOL
CHILDREN

The age during which children are
attending school may aptly be called
'"The Dangerous Age" 1t is the period
of rapid growth and every care should
he taken to insure the child Of a nor
NAL and healthy body. The idea OF
eating only fit and wholesome foods
should be early impressed on the
younger members of every family In
order to protect them against later
III health and it's accompanying unhap-
piness. If the utmost care is not taken
in the diet that is used by children,
cases of food poisoning, indigestion
and kindred ailments may result.
And milk, being the chief item In
the diets of most children, should be
carefully guarded. 1t is, because Of
its nature. prone to infection If ex-
posed to germs and may soon become
unfit for use. Wherever there is the
slightest reason for doubt as to its
purity and food value, steps should be
taken to insure the sterility and the
fitness of milk intended for consump-
tlon by children. Many mothers have
adopted the excellent practice of using
milk that Is absolutely pure and sterile
and free from any germs or bacteria.
The most satisfactory, as well as the
safest milk used in preparing food for
the growing child Is evaporated milk.
II Is sterile, and therefore safe. 1t
is more digestible than market milk.
Its uniformity, convenience and cost
are qualities that recommend it.
The following dishes are we'll suited
to the needs of the growing child;
they are easily digested an4 very
nourishing:
Caramel Custard.
/ cup evaporated u cup sugar
milk diluted (caramelized)
with 2 tbsp. sugar
1 cup water " tsp. salt
8 eggs " tsp. vanilla
Scald the diluted milk. Caramelize
the sugar and add to milk to dissolve.
Beat eggs slightly. add sugar salt, and
havoring and 2combine with scalded
milk. Pour into custard cups and set
in q pan of hot water and cook in a
moderate oven. When done. a knife
blade run in the center will come out
clean.
Fish ChoWder.
/ pint raw fish cut 3 cups boiling
in 1-inch dice water
6 small potatoes, ! cup evaporated
sliced milk diluted
3 onions chopped with
fine / cup water
V pound fat salt 6 crackers
pork, sliced
Fry out the salt pork. When brown,
remove pieces of pork and put fish, po-
tatoes, and onions in kettle. Cover
with boiling water. Simmer until po-
tatoes are tender. Add the milk and
cook 5 minutes longer. Season with
salt and pepper. Just before serving
add the crackers.

CARE OF coNvALEscENT IN
SUMMER

For those who are just recovering
from a serious illness the problem Of
food Is a serious one. The patient,
though well on the road to recovery,
is usually weakened by the rigors of
disease and the excessive heat is wont
to sap his energy. Hence, the foods
that r consumed during this period
should be considered carefully as to
d~igestibility, food value, ease of as
similation, purity and sterility. These
are important in any food but espe-
cially so when the is not
strong and healthy.
In most cases, the one who is CON
valescing consumes milk in large
quantities. This food contains all Of
the elements that are essential to the
body. If milk is pure and gerKaless.
it is easily digested and assimilated.
Where the milk supply is uncertain
or the quality not of the best, evap-
GRATED milk should be employed. 1t is
sterile; 1t is just pure milk with about
sixty per cent Of the water removed.
Its double richness may be modified,
If desired, by the addition Of water or
1t may be used just as 1t is, where
rich, creamy dishes are desired.
Many people make the mistake Of
confusing evaporated milk with o n
densed milk. They are not at all SINH
lar in appearance, composition or
taste. They cannot be used for the
san@ purposes; condensed milk Is a
combination OF sugar and milk; evap-
GRATED milk has no added sugar, being
pure milk of double-rich quality and
food value.
Following are recipes Of easily pre-
pared dishes and foods that are well
suited for the invalid and the con-
valescent.
Lo~ganberry Cream.
x cup evaporated " cup loganberry
milk juice
4 cup water~ 2 tbsp. lemon juice
Pinch salt
Put all ingredients in a Mason fruit
Jar and shake thoroughly. Chill and
serve In glasses filed 4 full Of ice
chips. Raspberry, blackberry, and
cherry juice may be used instead OF
the loganberry.

FOOD FOR CHILDREN WHO
TRAVEL

Many times, and especially during
the summer months. mothers are
forced to take their children on trips
with them. During these trips, the
parent is forced to contend with that
ever-present and serious problem Of
food for the child.
AS in almost every other case, the
chief source of worry, during these
periods, is the milk supply, its source,
its purity and its food value. It Is
not always convenient to get market
milk Of dependable quality for, In many
sections of the country, adequate ia
~cilities for its care are not provided.
To meet the needs of mothers In these
trying situations, science has provided
a form of milk, conveniently carried
and easily prepared. The cans r In

ounces an. the other sixteen.
E%vaporated milk is just pure cows
milk with more than half Of the water
removed. None Of its food value is
lessened; in fact its digestibility Is
improved. It is easily mixed with wa
ter and is, undoubtedly, the most prac-
tical form of milk for use as a food for
children. Some of the country's lead

we're gold fonts and other articles ex-
