Pains That
Never Came

Here's glorious news for long-suf-
fering womankind! To every woman
who periodically has suffered pain.
Menstruation need no longer be
painful. And it is Science that is
speaking.
Specialists have developed a tiny
tablet called midOI. It's a simple
thing, utterly harmless to a girl OF
fourteen. but il brings relief in five
TO seven minutes. And Is effective
twelve hours or longer.
Midol Is NOT a narcotic. 1t has
no effect whatever on heart or
nervous system. 1t acts directly on
those organs affected by menstrual
ton. They function normally. as
they should, but the pain is BAN
ished. Complete relief-yes, perfect
comfort-follows midol.
Your druggist has midol for 30
cents, in slim aluminium box TO
tuck in your purse.

ers are uneven. trim them a little.
as uneven layers detract very much
from the appearance of the finished
cake. Put the filling on the layers.
then ice the top and sides evenly and
let the icing dry in a warm place.
Flavoring extracts of any kind
should be added to cold food materials.
Vanilla, lemon or orange, for instance,
derive their flavoring properties from
delicate volatile oils. When heat
strikes these oils, they evaporate or
are dissipated into the air, conse-
quently their flavoring value is lost.
When making filings for soft pies,
creams or anything else where such
havoring Is required. keep this in
mind. The food may be lukewarm
without any particular harm being
done.
Rice Pudding Variations.
Rice pudding may be Of two kinds.
The first and best known kind con-
tains only rice, milk. a small amount
OF sugar, dash of salt, and the
favoring. The second kind is richer
but no more tempting, although it
contains eggs, butter and other in
gradients
Plain rice pudding must be made
To make it, YOU will require two table
spoonfuls Of rice, two and one.half
cupfuls of hot milk, one-fourth clrpfu1
OF sugar, and a fiavoring. First wash
the rice well and dry it on a cloth.
then place 1t, in a buttered pudding
dish and pour the hot milk over ii.
stlr Well, then place In a very moderate
oven, or II the heat of the oven seems
too great, place the pudding dish in
pan OF water, then in the oven. Bake
slowly for one hour, string two or
three times during this period, then,
when the rice has thickened the milk
slightly, add the salt and the sugar,
with dash of grated nutmeg or a
teaspoonful Of vanilla. DO not use
Drown sugar when making this pud-
oing, as 1t is very apt to curdle the
milk. Now leave the pudding in the
oven for another hour. Do not stir
again, but let 1t take on a deliciously
brown tint. When done. it should be
creamy and delicate, the rice having
dissolved In the milk.
Caramel pudding is variation of
the first rice pudding. To make it,
proceed as before, but melt a table
Spoonful OF granulated sugar to a deep
bright brown, without water, taking
care not to permit it to burn. Then
pour two or three tablespoonfuls of
hot water on it, and simmer to a
sirup. Use this sirup for flavoring
the pudding. adding half teaspoon
full of vanilla also.
Chocolate rice pudding is richer and
always popular with chocolate lovers.
Prepare 1t by melting a square of un-
sweetened chocolate over hot water.
then add it to the milk which is to be
scalded for making the pudding.
Vanilla fiavoring should be used with
the chocolate.

Proper Feeding for Babies.

"Oh, the little darling! He's such
good baby. You can tell the time
by him. / never saw anything like
It," A loving grandmother was talk
ing about her infant grandson. II
thought this clock schedule was lot
OF nonsense. But I am now con-
vinced that regularity Of feeding and
proper training do make good babies"
From the very first meal at his
mothers breast, the modern baby Is
trained in regularity. His bath. his
drinks Of water. his sleep. later his
orange Juice. his exercise on a padded
quilt in his little bare skin In the sun
shine-all become a matter of regular
habit. He Is happy because he is
properly fed and properly cared for.
The 3.monthold baby can be
trained so that he gets his last night
feeding at 10 o'clock. The baby should
sleep peacefully until the O'clock
feeding. The mother gets her proper
rest. Her health is not worn. out
with jumping up at any old hour to
nurse the baby. Her good health sup.
plies the nursing baby with good quail

the care and feeding Of children, said

good generally was we'll trained in

PLANNING A WEEKS FOOD

We specialize in old.fashioned dishes
this time. Directions for preparing rice
with sugar and cinnamon suggest
other desserts of equal simplicity. Get
the children to liking dishes, especially
desserts, that are not too complex. For
example, plain boiled hominy served
with a hard sauce which has been
favored with vanilla is delicious.
Plain boiled rice is also palatable with
the simple addition Of jelly or candied
fruit prepared with a sirup.
Old fashioned creamed Goldfish sug-
gests other creamed dishes Of equal
simplicity. Americans have been called
the nation of white sauce eaters. The
average housewife should remember
that it takes skill and an artistic soul
to serve these creamed dishes salts

family against dishes that are in
themselves extremely wholesome. In
this connection, one precaution to be
given Is that the white sauce for va.
rious dishes should not be thick. What
is known as white sauce No. Is the
best for this purpose. For this the
proportions are as follows:

HOW 1T STARTED
"The SQUARED Circle. "
BIT JEAN NEWTON.

'"The squared circle is a para
doxical phrase very much affected by
sport writer's.
The expression, Of course, has moth
ing to do with the age-old problem Of
squarfng the circle or with any other
matter Of scientific concern.
It is part of the vocabulary Of prize
fighting, and it refers to the boxing
"ring."
In the early days Of fighting large
ring was marked off on the turf, and
the contestants were not allowed to
step outside the circle.
II turned out however. that the
markings were not sufficient to keep
the battlers confined. so the space was
roped off. and when so roped off it
formed a square.
Nevertheless, the term 'boxing
ring" continued, it also becoming
known as the squared circle"

We are apt to get into ruts about
the varieties OF cheese which we use.
Roquefort lends itself exceptionally
well to the concoction of salad dress
ings. as in the case of celery salad
served at Sundays dinner It might
be worth while, however. for the
housewife to make 1t her business to
inform herself regarding tho different
varieties Of cheese which she can pro-
cure easily and economically.
Raw vegetable salad is a more mod
ern note. While our grandmothers
and mothers liked to nibble the raw
vegetables they were usually cau-
toned against the practice Today
we know that if raw tender vege-
tables are finely scraped and pulver-
lied they furnish salad that is par
ticularly wholesome and in most cases
popular. Two parts of raw carrots
may be combined with one part of
finely chopped apple and served with
French dressing, and this is only one
suggestion.
