sTnK z IVA @TM1ARYS KITCHEN
By SISTER MARY

What homemaker among us who does not happily welcome any sug- gestion that saves time in the prep aration and serving of meals? A little careful planning makes it possible to assure most women of many leisure hours.
 Meat loaves and cold cuts can be prepared to do duty for two or more meals and they are avail able in pleasing variety. Corned beef, beef and calves tongue, cot tage ham, Canadian bacon, Cali fornia ham, regular" ham as we'll as baked and jellied meat loaves and cold sliced roasts make deli cious meats for summer days.
 The care of meats after cook ing is of prime importance If they are to remain attractive to the last morsel. Tn the first place they must be kept very cold in order to preserve them perfectly. Then they must be kept we'll covered to prevent drying and loss of flavor. These two simple precautions in sure against food spoilage and waste.
 Small families will find cottage ham, Canadian bacon, corned beef, calves tongues and small meat loayes we'll fitted to their needs. Large families will make use of large hams and beef tongues. These cooked and salted meats can be prepared we'll in advance of the time of their serving and can be used down to the last bite.
 Corned beef has an appetizing tang for summer menus and can be purchased in as many pounds as wanted. It should be freshened for several hours or over night. Put on to cook in cold water and bring slowly to the boiling point and remove scum as it rises. Sim mer until tender. Cool in the water in which it was cooked. Re- move to a large plate or platter. cover with a second plate and weight. Press until cold and firm. Cut in slices to serve.s
 Beef and calves tongue can be bought salted or fresh. The salt ed or "pickled' tongue is always freshened before cooking. Let beefs tongue stand in water over night to freshen; four or five hours should be enough for salves'. Cover the fresh or freshened tongue with cold water and cook slowly until tepder. Salt is added to fresh tongue, 3-4 teaspoon to a pound of meat. after the tongue has cooked about one hour. Let cool in water in which it was cook ed and remove skin and roots. Serve sliced cold or in a hot cream sauce with broiled tomatoes.
 TOmOrFow's Menu
 BREAKFAST: Sugared cherries. cereal. cream, waffies. milk. cof- fee.
 LUNCHEON: Sardines and as- paraghs in easy Hollandaise sauce on toast. frozen fruit salad; toasted crackers. milk, iced tea.

HANDS UP FOR BEAUTY

If you desire a hand that anyone
 will want to hold, you must teach 1t trick or two. If it can't offer any inducements, you might as well stick it in your pocket and
 keep it there. Hands have personality. They talk and sometimes they tell more about their owner than she wants told.
 First of all, in grooming your
 hands, make sure that they are
 clean. Tepid water, a soft brush
 and a soap that knows how to eH. ter the pores and remove the dust
 and grime that has lodged every
 where are necessary. Don't use
 a highly scented soap. Rinse in
 some more warm water. Dry
 thoroughly.
 Hand exercises, of course, con-
 sist of simply pretending that you
 are pulling on a pair of gloves and fitting them perfectly. Knuckles need special attention. Keep yours
 soft. Don't let them jump out at people in mad, red manner.
 Cream the ends of your fingers and work the skin toward the tips.
 Massage your fingers Individually once a week. Make your hand limp.
 Take the other hand and use it as
 an agent to shake your fingers, one at time.
 Circulation is speeded up and circulation Is necessity for a vii brant, wide-awake hand.

BATHS FOR JOHN JOHNSON

For a four months old baby John Johnson is standing this changeable weather very well but this morning he had his mother all excited about him. It was hot -oppressively hot = and when John woke up from his mid-morn- ing sleep in a fretful mood Mrs Johnson put it down to the heat and thought no more about it. She fed him as usual and put him back in his baby carriage on the porch, expecting him to drop off to sleep again. But instead of doing so, John began to cry.
 For a few minutes Mrs Johnson let him cry. She knew he wasn't hungry: she knew there were no pins sticking into him, and she thought he was just doing it to at- tract attention or to amuse him. self; But soon she realized that he only cried that way when he was in pain, so she brought him in and undressed him to see what was the matter. To her dismay his little chest and legs were covered with 8 fine scarlet rash. In a second she was at the telephone calling me, and she sounded so upset that came round at once.
 She met me at the door and all most dragged me to the cot where John lay. "Oh doctor, what is it?" she said: "don't say it's measles or scarlet fever!" I took Johns tenn perature and pulse and looked at his throat. There's nothing wrong with him except a touch of prickly heat" said "but that's quite enough to upset any young mans disposition. Have you plenty of bicarbonate of soda in the house 2"
 Mrs Johnson had. and following my directions she prepared cool bath for John, adding one table spoon of bicarbonate of soda to each quart of tepid water. We popped him in and sponged him well. His cries ceased as if by magic, and by the time Mrs John son had him dried and powdered he was fast asleep, making up for lost time.
 Mrs Johnson took him cut again to his baby carriage and came back bringing a long, cool fruit drink for herself and me. As we slipped it I explained to her about the need for keeping John cool in hot weather. Heat makes him per- spire, just as it does all of us, and the precipitation is liable to irri- tate his delicate skin. thereby causing the prickly heat rash.

What The Doctor Says BY DIR. s. J. CRUMBINE, GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION

Woolen clothing next to his skin or too heavy blankets over him may have the same effect.
 To cool him off. Mrs Johnson should give him frequent sponge baths during hot day, using plain lukewarm water and a pure castillo soap. If his skin is already irri- tated she may give him a soda bath such as he had this morning. l or bran bath, made by squeez- ing a bag of wheat bran in the bath until the water is brown like a thin soup. These will soothe the burning, prickly sensation, espe- cially if Mrs Johnson smooths on a few drops of witch hazel before powdering John.
 While we were talking I picked up the can of bath powder which Mrs Johnson had left on the table. T See you are using rice powder for John," I said. "Oh yes, in- deed" replied Mrs Johnson. Do you remember. doctor, how years ago you caught me using some fancy kind of talcum on Bill? It came in the prettiest box, I re- member. but you said it would ob- sorb moisture and form hard cakes in the folds of Bills little body but vegetable powder wouldn't. I've never forgotten" And there's something else you haven't forgot ten," I said jokingly. Do you re- member how you used to pat the powder on so vigorously that it hung around Bill like cloud and the poor child half choked 9" "Only once or twice at the very first. doctor" laughed Mrs John- son, land how should I know bet ter then? You haven't seen me do it with any of the other babies." And that is perfectly true. John Johnson has a pretty smart mother.

One day passed. Two and three Jack was restless. With hil position gone, and no other if sight, he had more time to be tor. mented by the break that he had had with his father. Sue realized He had haAdled a few accounts oi his own on the side. Fortunately one of them. needed considerable attention on the third day of hii inactivity and he welcomed it joy fully.
 "I'll be out of town all day to. morrow. Sue." he explained to her Want to come with me? Vel drive"
 But when the morning came the car wouldn't start. Something had happened to the engine.

 Sue nodded. Last night had been one of the old, irresponsible types of evening. She and Jack, and Ted and Sarah had gone to a movie together, then sat in front apartment and toasted marsh and then there had been a sound of movement in the apartment be- yond, where Jimmy Hayden lived
 "Grace has returned home, you know" Sarah said. "She goes her way calmly and serenely. So does Jimmy. She treats him as though nothing had happened when she sees him ,A but he doesn't know how to act that way. Men aren't as good actors as women, when they are really up against some- thing. AS long as they are safe they can get by without batting an eyelash. couldn't act that way if if it were Jack who had - chang ed"
 Her eyes had sought Jacks and a flash of sympathetic under standing had passed between the two, Sue noted. She turned and found Jack watching her, Smiling, too.
 But that had been the night be. fore. Now 1t was morning, cold gray. dismal, the car wouldn't start, and Jack had an appoint. ment for eleven o'clock.
 Take the train", she told him There's car coming at the cor. ner. If you hurry you can make it."
 But you'll come, too, won't you? I'm afraid to leave you. Grat your coat and come along.'
 She shook her head. We cant afford two tickets, you know"
 "Oh, goll, I forgot. I guess you're right" He grimaced. "But I'll park you somewhere in town at your mothers or Sarah's.
 She shook her head again.
 "Ill go in latter If Pm lonesome If you miss this car, maybe you'll miss your train."
 He kissed her quickly, and went running down the street. But he turned to wave at her as he boarded the car.
 Sue did the few tasks that were to be performed. The she began to wish that she had something tc occupy her time. There wasn't g thing.

YOUR CHILDREN
TEAcHTNG HABITS
By OliNs Roberts Bsrtoa

TEACHING HABITS
 OF CLEANLINESS
 If we had never learned to wash our hands possibly we should not do so now. Washing our hands wouldn't mean anything. Likewise if we had never seen comb, or a toothbrush, such
 things would not be important to us now. We might try to ape bet ter groomed people about us. but 1t would be aping. It would not
 be second nature to need these things.
 This is why we must begin very
 early to make grooming not
 only important but necessary to a
 child, so necessary that he will be
 unhappy unless he is clean and
 properly turned out.
 There is dispute about this in
 an advanced school of thought. Certain students of the deeper
 child psychology take the stand
 that it is unnatural for child to
 bother about such "superimposed"
 things as clean clothes, and clean-
 Illness. That such things forced
 on him inhibit his freedom and that any inhibition that smacks of the artificial or adult standard is bad.
 I do not agree with this. That we do force teo many artificial things on little children do ad-
 init, far, far too many indeed.
 There is a time and an age for everything. When reason helps them to see "why'' so and so is done, then it Is usually time to in- troduce it.
 But cleanliness is different.
 There is something about having clean hands, brushed hair, clean body, and a clean mouth that is soothing and comfortable, beyond the fact that such things are hy- gienic and socially right. I do not believe that conflicts
 are begun very often on this Score
 and that is why urge the training
 of personal habits in babyhood. Establish Cleanly Habit For instance, for no reason on earth but to establish habit, be- lieve it to be wise to wash a baby's hands before he takes his bottle,
 so that by association of ideas he
 will remember always that meal time means clean hands first. Also, after he has been to the bathroom, or on his nursery chair the same thing should be done and for the same reason, although his hands may have had nothing to do with the process of cleaning up or elimination.
 Washing his face and brushing his hair and cleaning his little teeth with bit of soft cheesecloth or soft brush will also become associated in time with feeling
 of comfort and pride. So much so that when he is older and comes in smeared, hot and dirty, after a hard day he will not have to be ordered with threats and scolding and tears to clean himself up, but will go willingly and cheerfully as a matter of course to do these things for himself.
 do not believe in forcing chill dren of any age to wear clothes they detest. It isn't worth it. They have their reasons and are entitled to them. We force our- selves into the picture too much on the clothes question. But. keeping clean and neat, or at least going through the opera ton several times 8 day is differ
 ent. If child has always done it
 he always will do it. am sure he | won't set up any resentment to- ward society on this account.
