"Throto a,Oqy, untGsted, all foods

HE final responsibility for food poisoning
rests in the kitchen. 1t rests in the kettle
or in the can. Properly processed and prop
erly sealed canned food should be well pre.
served at the end of the months it must wait
before being served. II it is not, then there
is but one thing to do-throw it away.
The Food and Drug Administration was or
gained in 1927. 1t was created by Congress
upon the recommendation of the Secretary Of
Agriculture Its purpose is to protect the pub
lie in the matter of dangerous foods. 1t also
administers group of acts designed to pro-
mote purity and truthfulnesS in the labelling of
certain commodities essential to the health and
welfare of the public.
Its personnel is made up of men trained in
administration, in chemistry, in bacterioIogv
pharmacology toxicology medicine, entomol-
ogy, plant and animal pathology and sanitary
science.
There are about IT stations of the admins
tration scattered throughout the Nation in the
principal cities. About so inspectors are as
signed all told, at these stations. The moment
poison food case is reported to any one Of
them an investigator is dispatched at once to
investigate the case. If more men are needed
on the job, more are sent. Eight or ten men
can be drawn from other stations and sent to
any one community at any time
Their business is to get the facts in any
poison case, check up the food from which It
has come, place ban it until it can be de-
termined whether it is the source Of poison or
not.

Icebox ice creams have also been given special
attention by the Bureau of Home Economics
because the housewife has sometimes found it
onncult to get in her mechanical icebox az
smooth texture as she has been accustomed
to having in creams frozen in a freezer with
a dasher But this foundation recipe, which
can be used with different favors for variety
has been found to produce most satisfactory
results:
1 cupful double cream
/ cupful rich milk or thin cream.
teaspoonful gelatin
8 tablespoonfuls sugar.
egg whites
1-16 teaspoonful salt
II teaSpoonful vanilla
Soak the gelatin until soft In a little of the
mix or thin cream. Heat the remainder and
pour over the gelatin. Add the sugar and stir
until dissolved and put the mixture aside tn
chill Whip the double cream. When the mix
lure containing the gelatin has thickened
slightly, beat it to incorporate air Add the
vanilla and fold in the whipped cream and the
well beaten egg whites The egg whites will
reduce the richness. increase volume and i'm
prove texture. These proportions will make
more than four cups before freezing or if the
egg whites are not used, about three cups.
BY baking two layers of sponge cake in a pan
the size OF the ice cream tray and placing this
mousse between them, the hostess will have q
most attractive ice cream sandwich which she
can serve plain or with chocolate sauce or frest,

or course the most prominent descendant of
the emigrant, Robert Brooke was Chief
Justice Roger Brooke Taney, who writes In his
Memoir" follows:
The situation, for all social purposes was
a very retired one 1t was bounded as have
said, on one side of the river and on another
by deep tde-water creek, called Battel Creek
which runs into the country for several miles
at right angle to the river. The families which
we visited by land were several miles distant
from US, and our chief social intercourse was
IN Doats across the river or the creek, with
families who resided the opposite shores
My forefathers, on my fathers side were
among the early emigrants to MARYLAND and
had owned and lived upon this estate for MANY
generations before I was born. We have no
family record showing the precise time of their
coming TO Maryland, or the country from
Whch they migrated. They were Roman Cath
ollcS After the accession of William and Mary
70 the throne of England, the severe penal laws
OF that country against Roman Catholics were
introduced into Maryland; and among others
every Roman Catholic was prohibited from
teaching school in the province Parents were
naturally unwilling to send their children to a
school where their religion would be scoffed at
and the children subjected to humiliation and
insult Ihe education of Roman Catholics,
therefore, whose parents could not afford tn
SEND them abroad, was generally nothing more
than their parents could teach with occasional
aid secretly given by the priest.
"It was, consequently, usually confined to
reading, writing and a little arithmetic lust
enough to enable them to transact their or
olnary business, as planters, without incon-
VenIence. The children, whose fortunes would
anord 1t, were sent to France to be educated
ana my father was accordingly sent to the
English Jesuits College at St Omer's and re-
moved with it to Bruges when it was expelled
from St Omer's.. He had finished his educa-
ton and returned home, some years before the

one Of the great chapters in the science of physiology Ohe study of the workings of the human body Tn it's various parts and organs) deals with the kidneys.
 Some of the greatest names in medicine are associated with this or~un ;ud on it's structure and func- ti0ra. monumental books have been written,
 II organs may be said 10 deserve anything. the kidneys certainly de- serve the interest and study centercd on them They are marvelously constructed and the study of their workings provides an ever constant source of wonder.
 The kidneys are organs of oliml- nation It is their function to rid the body of certain wastes. They eliminate fluids. and through them also solids which may be dissolved in water.
 All of the body's blood circulates through the kidneys. It is from the blood that the kidneys abstract, that is, take out, waters and excess fluids But this abstraction is a se- leCtive process.
 The kidneys arc no mere filters in the ordinary sense. They choose the substances to be distracted.
