When a Person browns

II is a common belief that drown
ing person will always rise three
times before finally sinking, accord
ing to the U, S. Public Health Ser
vice, there is no scientific basis for
this belief.
Many drowning persons do not
come to the surface at all after their
first submergence. When a person
finds that he is drowning he natural
ly makes a frantic struggle to save
his life. In doing so he draws water
into his windpipe. This causes him
to cough and expel air from the
lungs. He then sinks. If all the air
is expelled from the lungs he will not
rise to the surface even n second.
On the other hand, drowning per-
son who has some control over him.
self may sink and rise more than
three times before his strength fails
completely and he sinks to rise no
more.

Ham Recipes for Luncheon or Dinner

A whole ham, or even half a one,
is a good summer investment. With
one in the refrigerator you are pre-
pared not only for emergencies but
for the easy preparation of a meal
at the end of hot day.
There is an easy and delicious
dish called ham flakes: Cook one
and one-half cups of noodles, brok-
en- in pieces, in boiling sailed water
until tender; drain and mix with a
quarter of pound of cooked ham,
cut in small pieces, cup of milk,
half cup of canned or fresh peas,
one egg, one tablespoon of butter,
and salt and pepper to taste. Dot
with butter and bake in moderate
oven 20 minutes. Spaghetti may be
used in the place of the noodles.
With Peppers
To make ham crouuettes with
green peppers use three cups of
minced ham, add one finely minced
onion, one small green pepper chop
ped fine, one cup of bread crumbs
and three eggs. Roll into balls, dip
in egg, then in crumbs, and fry in
hot lard until brown.
With Tomatoes
Cut cooked ham into slices, put
into buttered baking dish sprinkle
with little finely chopped onion,
parsley and pepper; place we'll
buttered paper over them and cook
in moderate oven 10 to IL min
utes. Dish up on a hot dish and
pour boiling tomato sauce over the
slices, sprinkle with finely chopped
cooked button mushrooms and pars-
ley.
Another very good way to serve
ham and tomatoes is to fry half a
tablespoon of minced onion and
tablespoon of minced green pepper
in tablespoon of butter; add two
tablespoons of flour, half teaspoon
of salt, an eighth of teaspoon of
pepper, teaspoon of sugar, a cupful
of tomato PURGE and half a cup of
minced ham. When well heated
serve on toast.

The manner of a proposal is the

of each others character.

a letter unopened even if the wom-

contains a proposal which she must

If letter is received by a woman
from a man whom she has refused
and whose persistency she has sought
to end, she may place the letter in
the hands of her parents, or guard

acted on as they think best.
When the engagement is a fact
and so acknowledged at home, it is
not wise or courteous thing for the
engaged couple to monopolize each
other. Consideration on the part of
the family would see to it that they
have some time to be alone together.
Yet, the lovers should be as careful
to keep their place in the social life
Of the home as if there were no spe-
cial attachment.
The degree of familiarity should
be limited, for there is many slip

because it is essential for those who

not mean that they should avoid or
neglect being alone together at times,
but they should not obviously and
selfishly absent themselves.

duly exalt him for the same reason.
She should now remember that the
broad world of her social interests is
narrowing as her association with her
fiance intensifies and she should not
attempt in any way to break the
bounds set for the engaged girl.
An engaged couple are apt to be
the foreground of any social event
which they may grace with their pres

Bread and Butter Letter

A bread and butter letter is a note
written by departed guest to his
late host or hostess expressing thanks
and appreciation for the entertain
ment and hospitality extended. It
takes its name from the fact that
hospitality is frequently spoken of
as dread and butter"
According to the etiquette sharks,
a bread and butter letter should be
posted within 48 hours of the guests
departure. The term is particularly
applicable to letter written to a
friend after spending a few days at
his home,

Who Coined Saying:
"Say It With Flowers

"Say it with flowers" as one might
guess, was originated by florist. II
was coined by N. p. Lindberg, a ma
tive of Denmark, who devoted his
time to Horticulture at Rugby, N. ID.
Before the world war the Rugby
Dane attended the national conven-
ton of florists at Chicago.
"What can you raise in the barren
country called Dakota" a delegate
asked Lindberg. "Up there" snap
ped back the florist, 1--WE say il with
flowers" 1t was good selling slo
gan and the florist convention made
it famous throughout the world.
Lindberg was killed in 1922 in an
automobile accident.

Beauty Answers

TESS D.: Here is a lotion for a
dry skin: Equal parts of glycerine,
distilled witch hazel water and lime
water. Shake well and apply with a
piece of absorbent cotton several
times day.
ALICE s.: Falling arches will
make the ankles weak; in addition,
they send shooting pains up the legs.
Have yourself fitted to shoes which
give the proper support to the arch
and plenty of room to the toes.
EDNA X: The glycerin and rose
water preparation for the hands will
be found effective. 0ne-third gly-
cerin and two-thirds rosewater are
the proportions. Plain water may be
substituted for the rosewater, and
five drops of carbolic acid to two
gills of the mixture will improve it.
1t should be wiped off after using.
MRS. f. c.: Putting the hands
alternately in hot and cold water
should be avoided. Tepid or warm
water may be used for washing the
hands. The use of a good CASTLE
soap is recommended. Cheap soaps
contain alkalis and ruin the texture
OF the skin. And never wash the
hands unless you wash them thor
oughly. Half washing makes them
rough, red and coarse. For soften
ing and whitening you'll find equal
full.
WORKER: Your pallor seems to
indicate lack of exercise and fresh
air, and perhaps a monotonous diet.
Try to spend at least half hour
In the open every day-if possible,
an hour-and breathe deeply that the
lungs may be filled with fresh air.
Sleep in well ventilated room, and
watch your diet, being sure to in
ciude in it plenty of green vegeta-
bles and fruits.
MRS. R. B.: There are many diff
ferent causes of eczema. The treat
ment depends upon the portion of
the body affected and your general
condition. | should advise you to
consult physician. Let him deter
mine the cause and treat you.
MOTHER: Milk is often called the
ideal food. It contains lime and phos-
phorous for bone and tooth struc-
ture, fat and sugar for energy, pro-
tein for building material, vitamines
for maintenance of health and
growth. In addition to the milk you
should drink about six glasses of
water every day.
MRS. T. c.: Yes, you can well
afford to lose 20 pounds. For a wo-
man age 45, feet 6, the standard
weight is 149 pounds.

Mayor Weld SAID he was satisfied
the time was here to do sonnet hing

He explained that the two million

He suggested 10 DR.. Copeland
ticut and Massachusetts be ordered

Former Mayor Paonessa asked
DR.. Copeland a number Of questions
concerning the questions of the city

than the state. He disagreed with
DR.. Copeland that each city and
town should pay its own expense

why towns and cities in Massachu-
