reaching the hospital. The other, identified as Light, and who was said by the police to have been at the wheel of the automobile, is not expected to live.
 Details Are Mystery
 What happened between midnight, when the young persons were last seen, and the early morning, when the girl was discovered In a clump of bushes near Absecon, and an hour later, when the men were brought to the hospital, is a prob lem that state police, county detec- tives and local police are endeavor- ing to fathom.
 According to Miss Tuttle's story to the detectives, she and Miss Null ligan went 10 the Million Dollar pier last night and made the &C., quaintance of the two men. About 10:3O D. m. the four walked out on the boardwalk and stopped at a restaurant for a few sandwiches.
 They spent the hour and a half together and then they took Miss Futile to her quarters, at the Beach Front hotel, in which she was em- ployed. The two men then offered to take Miss Mulligan home in their automobile. She acce pted.
 That was the last Miss Pulley saw of the men or the girl companion until the detectives took her to the hospital this morning.
 Instead Of taking Miss Mulligan home, the men evidently drove out to the lonely spot in Absecon and attacked her. Miss Mulligan was in this city on her vacation.

With the stock market having re- covered S5 per cent of the ground lost since the March reaction, there is a growing opinion in Wall street that the recent advance in prices represents the discounting of good business this fall. Midsummer ae- tivity in several leading industries, pal ticularly the steel automotive, and copper have greatly exceeded conservative expectations. Even the building industry has held up better than most people expected although there has been a falling off in some sections. With freight car traffic and bank clearings being maintained at record levels, relatively little un- employment, abundant supplies of money for all legitimate purposes and the prospect of bumper crops, professional interests sponsoring the rise in prices are extremely confident of their position.

THAW WATER
PIPES

THE middle Of a frozen pipe
l. should never be thawed first,
says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. because ex-
pansion of the water confined by
ice on both sides may burst the
pipe. When thawing water pipe
work toward the supply. opening
a faucet to show when the flow
starts. When thawing a waste or
sewer pipe, work upward from
the lower end to permit the water
to drain away.
Applying boiling water or hot
cloths to a frozen pipe is simple
and effective. Where there il no
danger Of fire, a torch or burning
newspaper run back and forth
along the frozen pipe gives quick
results. Underground or other
wise inaccessible pipes may be
thawed by opening the frozen pipe
on the house end, inserting small
pipe or tube, and with the aid OF
a funnel, at the other end of this
small pipe. pouring boiling water
into it, pushing 1t forward as the
ice melts: More thaW pipe should
be added at the outer end until
a passage Is made through the
ice, when the thaw pipe should be
quickly withdrawn.

VXTHY we ever fall into the
wv habit of calling cornstarch
pudding plain Is another OF those
stilI-to-be answered questions in
the history of cooking. Well-madc
cornstarch without a single trace
of coloring, sauce or fruit, can be
as beautiful in color as old ivory.
as tender in texture as the most
perfect jelly and as smooth as
the richest mousse. But 1t must
be well made, and this means
long cooking, slow, even cooking
and a double boiler.
II milk is used, rinse the cooker
first in cold water before putting
the cornstarch on to scald. This
will keep the milk from sticking
and make the dish easier to wash
as well as preventing any taste
of overlooked milk.
While the milk shouldn't be
overlooked, the cornstarch must
beat least 1t does no harm
and any undercooking gives the
unpleasant taste Of uncooked
starch which has undoubtedly
helped to give cornstarch Its I'M
enviable reputation.
Mix the cornstarch thoroughly
with the sugar, salt, and add a
little scalded milk, stirring until
the mixture is a smooth paste.
Dilute the paste with the scalded
milk and then add it to the milk
in the double boiler. This will
give a mixture that is certain to
be smooth.
Stir until the mixture thickens,
keeping the heat low under the
boiler and letting the cooking pro-
coed slowly. Now comes the
cooker and let the mixture pro-
coed to cook and mellow for fiji
teen or twenty minutes.
Three tablespoons Of corn
starch, four tablespoons of sugar
to two cups of scalded milk will
give a pudding that Is not too
Stiff and will chill well.
If chocolate Is to be added,
newer use more than this amount,
as most chocolate buildings are
too stiff to be comfortable eating.
If fruit is to be added, or If a
fruit Juice Is used with or instead
of milk, use four tablespoons Of
cornstarch.
The flavor of cornstarch pud-
ding is easily varied. For in
stance, a fine maple pudding can
be made by simply using six ta-
blespoons of shaved maple sugar
or even brown sugar. To make
this pudding into a truly rich
dessert add a quarter of a cup OF
finely chopped pecans after the
pudding has finished cooking, and
il eggs are reasonable in price
and the occasion warrants it, stir
in at this time one slightly beaten
egg.
Not all cornstarch buildings
need be made of milk. A fruit
flavor and color can easily be
given by using fruit juice or the
syrup from canned fruit in place
of the milk.
Substitute one cup Of syrup
drained from canned apricots
and one cup of boiling water or
scalded milk flavor with one
tablespoon of lemon juice for the
milk in the standard recipe.
Omit the sugar, but allow four
tablespoons cornstarch.

cooking, fold in one cup of the
