while he noted to his surprise that that
loop was growing smaller. You see, the
point was sinking into the wood. Peter
sat there and stared open rnouthed. It
didn't seem possible that such thread
like thing could actually bore hole.
Yet this was just what was happening.
That drill went deeper and deeper into
the wood. It was slow work, but Tha-
lessa kept right at it. Her wings were
straight up in the air. Peter didn't say
word. He was too much interested to
ask questions, strange to say. Perhaps
he knew that Thalessa was too busy to
answer questions.
"Thsrel" said she. "I've reached it
at last"
You've reached what?" asked Peter.

well, now that you've reached the
tunnel, what are you going to do next?"
asked Peter.
Leave an egg In it, of course, stupid"
replied Thalessa.
"oh!" said Peter. IF may be bold
enough to ask, how do you expect TO
get an egg in there?"
Right down through the middle part

course the egg is very tiny"

be to go down through such a small

And after you have put the egg in

that there were three long Stings. She
had told him that they were not stings

what they were for. She turned them
upward and bent them over until they
formed loop above her body, with the
three parts brought together so as to
form one piece. The tip of this rested
on the bark. It was her drill, and a
very wonderful drill. The middle part

was attracted by the scent of Sheeta, the

the apes view, the panther crouched. Tarzan
cautiously gained position in the tree, a

Delicious
Foods Made
With Honey

Honey is one OF our most ancient,
and at the same time, wholesome,
foods. 1t was a food greatly priced
by the ancients. The Bible makes
numerous references to it.
Today. We still recognize the fact
that it is good and good for us. We
know that sweets, such as honey,
will satisfy the children's sweet
tooth and will be more wholesome
for them than manufactured sweets.
We also are learning that honey
can be used in making any number
of delicious foods.
1t not only imparts a delicate
flavor all its own, but it also helps
keep foods fresh. due to the fact
that honey in a product will absorb
water vapor from the air This is
a fact to be made use of in baked
goods particularly.
Here are some honey recipes
worth trying:
Honey Spice Cake
cup butter or margarine
cup sugar
eggs
4 teaspoon all spice
~ teaspoon cinnamon
teaspoon ginger
= teaspoon nutmeg
4 teaspoon mace
cups -four
teaspoons soda
cup sour milk or huttermilk
! cup rsisins
Mix honey, sugar and shortening.
Add well beaten eggs and sour milk.
Sift dry ingredients and add to
liquid mixture. Add raisins mixed
with a little of the flour, and bake
in a moderate oven for one hour
and forty minutes.
Honey Bran Mullins
tablespoon shortening
II cup honey
I egg
| cup milk
I cup -four
2 tablespoons baking powder
cups bran
Cream shortening and honey, and
add Well-beaten eggs. Sift dry in
gradients and add alternately with
the milk. Bake for one-half hour in
moderate oven. Recipe makes twelve
mullins.
Honey Custard
5 eggs

tards comes out clean.

method remains whole and I'M
broken, and the original flavor is re-
tanned better.
Oven canning lately has come into
prominence. If you have a gas range
or an electric range with an oven
heat regulator attached, you will
find oven canning simple and prac-
tical for fruits and tomatoes.
If you have such stove, your &C
companying book of instructions I'M
doubtedly will give you full direc-
tons for such canning.
In mentioning the methods for
home canning, I overlooked the
pressure cooker method, which is a
very successful one. as owners of
pressure cookers tell you.
General Canning Preparation
1t always is well to wash and test
the jars before getting the food
ready to put into them. This takes
a little extra time. but in the end
it may be labor saved. Wash and
dry the jars and covers. then fill
the jar about one-fourth full of
water, Test the rubber by stretch
ing it six inches.
A good rubber stretched in this
manner will spring back to its orig
inal thickness and shape. BY this
procedure, defective spots in the
rubbers will weaken and break. and
you will be able to weed out the bad
rubbers. 1t never is economy to use
rubberS which have been used be-
fore. After the rubber has been
tested, place it on the Jar, and
screw or clamp down the cover
completely. Invert each on q dry
table surface, placing them about
six inches apart.
Examine the jars at intervals. and
II a leak appears, try to correct the
defect. It may be that the cover IS
not screwed down securely. Some
times different cover will fit better.
In open kettle canning, a11 lars
should be sterilized before they are
filed. This means boiling the
Jars, lids and rubbers, submerged in
water at least ten minutes. Put
them on in cold water and raise to
the boiling point.

GUen
for Open Kettle
Canning Method
Here are some directions:


l. Select food that is in firm,
perfect condition. Fruit should be
we'll grown, firm, but not oyerripe.
Use vegetables that are young.
2. If possible, can fruits and vege-
tables on the day they are picked.
The slogan, Two hours from the
garden to the kettle" is good one.
3. Clean the fruit thoroughly and
prepare as for cooking.
4. Sort fruits and vegetables so
that they are as nearly unifrom in
size as possible. If blanchirg, that
is, dipping in boiling water, is nee
esSary, as it is in the case Of many
fruits and vegetables, blanch only a
small amount at a time until the
desired results are accomplished.
5. Cook the food until tender.
Add sugar and salt as desired.
6. Place the sterile jar in shall
low pan containing hot water. This
eliminates breakage.
7. Place the boiling hot food in
the tested sterilized jar.
8. Fill the jar to overfoWing with
hot syrup, or liquid, accumulated
during the cooking process.
9. Place the tested rubber on the
jar and screw or clamp down the
sterile cover until the seal is COM
plete.
10. Invert the jars to cool. Avoid
a draft on the jars. but cool as
quickly as possible. To prevent ber-
ries from floating. place the jar on
the side, and while cooling roll it
at intervals.
II. wipe off jars. label them. and
stand in a cool, dark, dry place.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-07-30

Must Be Careful
However, this method demands
more careful and particular work.
Everything that comes In contact
with the food, such as jars. rings,
covers, etc. must be sterilized thor
oughly, else spoilage will be high.
This method is not recommended
for the canning of such vegetables
as corn, peas or beans, because they
demand longer processing than it
furnishes. It is useful in the can
ming of fruits and tomatoes.
The cold pack method is safer
method, and many housewives find
it the easier. Food packed by this

Rubber Bands Are Useful

Oiled paper and rubber bands are
indispensable inthe kitchen. Vege-

secured with rubber bands before
putting them in the refrigerator, re-
tain their freshness. II also pre-

other foods. Rubber bands Oh open
