FOOD PROBLEMS
By SALLY MONROE.
Fruit and Gelatin.

Gelatin desserts are delicious with
fruit. The other day saw lemon jelly
nodded with huckleberrieS. The gela-
tin mixture was cooled before it was
poured over the berries. Just as it was
about to jell it was poured into dessert
glasses half full of washed and sorted
huckieberries. 1t was stirred several
times, so that the berries were distrib-
uted through it while it was stiffening.
It was pretty and delicious.
Peaches are good with gelatin deS-
serts. Orange jelly, perhaps, is best
with them. 1t is nodded in flat dish
and cut into cubes and served with
sliced ripe peaches and whipped cream.
The peaches are added when 1t Is
served, not nodded with it.
Oatmeal Mush With Dates.
One and one-half cupfulS oatmeal,
four cupfuls boiling water, one tea
spoonful salt. Sift oatmeal slowly into
boiling water, stirring constantly; boil
three minutes, then cover closely and
set pan in a lager vessel containing
boiling water Continue cooking one or
two hours longe.. If placed the eve
ming before il Il f1releSS cooker, it will
be done in the morning, or it may cook
overnight on the back Of a coal range
where it can remain hot. Fifteen min
uteS before serving add the dates,
washed, stoned and cut in halves.

Bundle Stitch on Child's Dress
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Mark the material with a small pen
ell mark where you want the BUN
dies" to appear Usually they are
spaced an inch apart. Then thread a
needle with colored embroidery silk or
cotton and start at the right toward
the left. Fastening your thread at the
lower point Of the first space, take a
stitch about quarters Of an inch
long. Work two more parallel stitches
little shorter, and then bring the
needle through at the center to make
the vertical stitches that bind the bum
dies. Work two of these vertical
stitches close together and then pro-
coed with the next bundle. If you like.
you may make all the long stitches of

TYPHOID FEVER RARE BUT HIGHLY
CONTAGIOUS
Absolute Sanitation Is Only Way to Control Spread of Disease

The control Of paratyphoid infec-
ton involves careful %diSinfection of
all the discharges from the person
and careful boiling of all linens which
have been in contact with the pa
tent. Because it is possible that flies
may transmit the disease, a person
infected with 1t should be isolated in
q room that Is fly proof.
Whenever a paratyphoid infection
occurs in either a single case or in
epidemic manner, 1t is desirable for
public health officials to search out
the source Of infection and to pre-
vent its spread. Among the measures
that are necessary to prevent the
spread Of paratyphoid fever Are pro-
lection and publication of public wa
ter supplies, pas~teurization of milk,
supervision Of food supplies and of
food handlers, control Of transmits
sion Of the disease by flies, proper
disposal Of human excretions, a sys-
tematic examination of specimens
from those who have been in regu-
lar contact with cases of the disease.
and proper treatment OF the water
supply with hypochlorite or other dis
infecta1t.
Indeed, 1t IS safer for most people
IN times of epidemic Of paratyphold
to boil all the water that is used.

NAcO1Col ASOOClStlOn
Typhoid fever has been practically
eliminated in this country by the
control Of food and water supplies,
and by proper disposal Of sewage. 1t
continues to appear only when there
are carriers who disseminate and
contaminate the ~excretions in such a
way az to get them into contact with
food or water supplies.
ParAtyphoid fever Is caused by a
germ related to the typhoid organism.
Indeed, the vaccination against ty-
pfoid fever is usually combined with
a. simultaneous vaccination against
paratyphoid infection.
The germ is carried in, the dis
charges from the human body to wa
ter or foods, and infection takes place
by this means. The infection usually
develops from four to ten days after
the germ first gets into the human
body. From the time when the synlp-
toms appear, throughout the illness,
during relapse, during convalescet1ce
and indeed sometimes after the per-
son appears to be perfectly we'll, he
may still distribute the organisms.
Hence, repeated batteriologic exami-
nations Of the discharges Is neces-
sary before a person can be said to
be safe for other people.
