DON'T STOOP OVER
TO PREPARE EGGS
Housewife Should Assume
Correct Posture in Work.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
At this time of year when eggs are
plentiful and many good dishes are be-
ing made with them, there Is nothing
unusual in seeing a housewife bent
over table vigorously using an egg
beaten. It's too bad, however, for any
woman to assume such bad posture
for doing any Of her frequently re-
curing household tasks, for by repeti-
ton she trains her muscles and bones
into whatever position she habitually
takes. 1t would be an easy thing for
her, in the first place, to stand with
back straight and still beat eggs, If
she simply thinks about how she is
standing. She might help herself to
maintain good position while at
work at the kitchen table If she had a
set of blocks made to put under the
legs of the table and raise it to
more effective and comfortable work
ing height.
Extension workers among farm
women in many states have recently
been stressing the Importance of good
posture and working levels suited to
the individual. The illustration, taken

WILL START SOON
ON BIG AQUEDUCr
New York Plans to Increase
Water Pressure.

New York.-Work on boring 81
gantic aqueduct 20 miles long and 500
feet beneath the surface Of New York
Is to begin in few months.
The tube, which involves one Of the
major engineering feats Of modern
times, is to be installed for the pur-
pose Of increasing the water pressure
for the residents Of Brooklyn and
Queens.
Sixteen shafts are to be sunk along
the route to the 500-foot level, where
hundreds of men are expected to
spend four years in boring through
the muck and rock. The shafts them
selves will be so deep that the LET
court-National building, the city's new
est 40-story Fifth avenue skyscraper,
would find it's tower well below street
level If it could be dropped into one
Of them.
It was announced that 16 electric
mine hoists and 81 mine locomotives
have been ordered for use in creating
the buried aqueduct. 1t is to begin
at the northern end Of Van Courtlandt
park in the Bronx, extend south and
east under the borough, cross twice
under the Bronx river, proceed to-
ward Stony Point, cut under the East
river to Long Island, cross under
Queens and Long Island city, proceed
almost the whole length Of Brooklyn
and terminate at Hamilton avenue, OPP
posite Governors island in Brooklyn.
The hole to be bored will be 10 feet
in characteristic enough for three mo-
tors to be driven through abreast. The
workers after descending the shafts
and becoming accustomed to the air
pressure necessary, are to ream out
the tunnel with modern boring ma
chinery and line it's walls with foot
thick coating of concrete as they pro-
coed.

Magnet Draws Needle
From Brain of Baby

Pottsville, PA nine-month-old
baby seemed recovering in hospital
after sewing needle, lodged upright
In the center of it's brain, had been
removed by means of strong magnet.
Mrs. Jennie Harvey several days
ago saw the threaded end of the
needle protruding from her infant
daughter Rosanna's skull about three
inches above the left eye. Then the
needle disappeared. At Pottsville hos
pital an X-ray showed the location of
the needle in the baby's brain. DR..
j. B. Rogers selected the spot on the
baby's skull to which he thought the
topmost end of the needle was near
est. He applied powerful magnet
and the needle came through the
baby's scalp, blackened but intact.
There is no explanation of the
needles presence.

They are taught to cook many kinds
of food (Which the old camper fried)
on the end Of green stick over a fire.
Bread may be toasted, sliced bacon,
sausage, an apple, or an ear of corn,
all cooked by means Of sharpened
green stick and good fire.
The kabob or skewered food may
make quite variety. Arrange sliced
potatoes, alternating with individual
strips of steak; If carefully watched
this dish may be all cooked at once.
AS cheese melts in heat and be-
comes tough If cooked at high tenn
perature, wrap pieces in bacon and
string on a green stick. Thrust the
slender point of the stick through the
bacon, which will keep it from I'M
wrapping. BY the time the bacon is
done the cheese will be melted. This
is called a cheesebob by the Camp
Fire Girls, and is worth remembering
as 80 good"

of either carbon disulphid or carbon
tetrachlorid is heavier than air, fumi-
cation Is done by placing the liquid in
shallow dish on shelf of the closet,
as shown in the illustration. For a
closet 2 by by feet, use about three
fourths of a cupful Of carbon disulphid
or about one and a half cupfuls of car
bon tetrachlorid. AS soon as the liquid
has been poured into the dish shut the
door and seal cracks about 1t with
gummed paper, or paste on strips Of
firm paper, using flour paste. Seal
ing the door prevents the gas from es-
Gaping rapidly and keeps clothes
moths from crawling into the closet by
way Of the cracks and offsetting the
good of the fumigation.
Carbon tetrachlorid has the great
advantage over carbon disulphid that
its gas is neither explosive nor inflam-
mable, hence there is no risk of fire
in its use.

NATIONAL DISHES
ALWAYS POPULAR
Hungarian Goulash Because
of Its Tasty Ingredients.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Every nation has a dish that Is es-
pecially popular with great many
people, either because of its flavor, or
the native ingredients used, or
method of cooking that has become
widely used in that country. Thus we
hear of Italian "polenta," "rizotto," or
"raviola"; of Armenian "kebabs"; of
Austrian "Wienerschnitzel" of Eng
lish meat pie, or Irish stew. Some OF
these national dishes came into being
among rural people, and are indica-
tive of the kinds of foods obtainable
close at hand; many Of them are due
to combinations of flavor and methods
of cooking used with the less tender
cuts of meat to make them palatable.
And so, in final analysis, Hungarian
goulash appears to be just q special
kind of stew, using meats that are
best cooked by slow, moist heat, COM
bined with vegetables and seasonings
that not only appeal to the Hungarian
but to the cosmopolitan palate. Various
recipes are found for making 1T. per-
haps because in different sections of
Hungary there were differences In OBJ
tainable foods. Here is very tasty
gouash vouched for by the bureau Of
home economics as being not only
good to eat and smell, but the "real
thing" in Hungarian preferences.

If you have roomy closet with a
tight fitting door and smooth uncracked
walls, you can use 1t for fumigating
wool garments before storing them
over the summer. Fumigation with
carbon disulphid or carbon tetrachlorid
will free clothing from any moth in
festation that may have occurred be-
fore the garments were given atten-
ton. If the closet is not needed the
clothing, after being fumigated, may
be left in 1t until wanted again. Or
the fumigation may be done as an ex-
ira precaution and the clothes then
wrapped in tight packages or placed
in trunks or cedar chests for safe
keeping.
