CHOPPED NUTS ADD
TO WAFFLES

SSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSOSSSS
Chopped nuts In waffles make an
acceptable variation of flavor which
everybody will enjoy. Pecan meats
in season are especially good, as they
go well with maple or other sirups
usually eaten with waffles. Other nut
meats may be used when pecans are
not available. But meats are better
cut with knife or chopped in bowl
than put through a grinder. The pro-
portions below are given by .he bu-

Sift the dry ingredients together, add
the milk and the beaten egg yolks,
then the melted butter. Stir in the
nuts, and then fold in the well-beaten
egg whites. Have the waffle iron hot
enough to brown the waffle quickly.

tablespoonfuls of melted butter should
be used in the batter.

Don't wait for Christmas to treat
the family to cranberry sauce, cram
berry jelly, or other good things in
which cranberries are used. Get some
of the first cranberries you can to use
with chicken, rabbit, veal, pork. or
any meat that is better for a sweet
tart accessory. The recipe for cram
berry jelly given below is from the
bureau Of home economics of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. Cranberry sauce is even more
easily made, as the skins are not
strained out. You can make enough
cranberry jelly and sauce for several
days and keep it in the ice box. Use
rather small jelly glasses, of the size
that your family will finish at one meal.
Cranberry products sweep" or run
when they are out and so it is more
attractive to place fresh mold on the
table at each serving.

bring to the boiling point and drop in
the oysters. Watch carefully, and
when the edges curl and ruff1e, re-
move at once and keep in a warm
place. Strain the broth and add
quart of rich milk. very hot, a half
cupful of butter, salt and pepper to
suit the taste, then add the oysters
and serve piping hot. Some prefer
thickening of three tablespoOnfuls of
flour with the butter, as it makes a
smooth broth which will not curdle.
Serve with crisp fresh oyster crack
ers. Celery-a cupful or two cooked
-and the broth and all added to the
stew is enjoyed for a change, although
the old-fashioned stew of just oysters
still holds its place as the best liked.
This is the season of the year when
a hot soup for luncheon or supper is
most welcome. Dried peas make
most delicious soup. Soak them over
night and cook in the same water in
the morning, adding generous square
of salt pork, an onion and plenty of
water to cook. Simmer for several
hours, season, strain if desired, or
serve just as 1t is. If one does not
wish the pork, add butter and milk
when serving. Beans may be used in
the same way. making a most tasty
and nourishing soup.

useful for gardeners and when scrub
bing will be wonderful help to stand

HOUSEHOLD HINTS

Bananas should not be kept in the
refrigerator as the low temperature
turns them dark.
Contrast In the color. flavor and tex
ture of foods helps make the meal
look interesting.
A good workman is known by his
tools, so the homemaker buys kitchen
utensils of good quality and takes
good care of them.
In making white bread the use of
whole or skim milk to supplement the
proteins and minerals of wheat -four
is strongly recommended. Since
bread is a staple foodstuff, the use of
milk in bread would insure a better
ncurished population. Dry skim milk
may be used in bread making with
good results. In addition to supple

n revival Of the art

could happen than revival of the art
of millinery.
One of the amusing contradictions
about the new soft draped millinery Is
that which often seems to be just
"rag of a hat" in the hand, becomes
an imposing millinery masterpiece on
the head. having all those qualities
of dignity and sophisticated "lines,"
which are>so essential to ''good style"
A very new and ultra treatment
sponsored by French modistes is that
of the hanging side jabot. The model
in the center of this group demon
strates the extremes to which Paris
milliners are going in the matter Of
jabots or dropping bows, which fall
sometimes quite to the shoulder. Caps
of the type as illustrated are most
often made of wide transparent velvet
ribbon, which is almost as thin and
supple as. chiffon.
The first model pictured faces the
brim with pale beige fiat fur, which
is as supple as any fabric. The rest
of the hat so adroitly draped is of
brown velvet.
Broadcloth was used for the hat to
the right, the draped contour featur-
ing side-to-side effect inspired by
ancient Egyptian headdress.
In the last model felt hood has
draped facing of matching satin, for
satin used with felt or soleil is very
fashionable. The other wee sketches
are merely suggestions as to the
trend of the mode.

Native African Belief
Aids Spread of Pests

Rhodesia is suffering badly from the
depredations Of lions and leopards. 1t
would be the simplest matter in the
world to eliminate these pests as In
most parts Of South Africa, but the
natives, although baited by the offers
Of gems and other rewards, simply will
not help the white farmers in this
matter. The whole truth is that the
natives believe that the spirits of their
departed chiefs are reincarnated in
the lions and lecpards that infest the
country.
As a result of this superstition no
nadve dare kill lion for fear Of
bringing the anger of the spirits upon
him and his family. The native is
rather between the devil and the deep
sea, because the "spirits" have a nasty
habit of carrying off members Of
