SHOOTS SELF

STOCKTON. Calf. Dec. 5. U.D
Joseph Spinetti, bartender
known as "Black Jce." ran amok
early today, killing three men be-
fore he committed suicide, police
reported.
His victims included Louis Paga-
no and Louis Dalucchi, both bar
tenders and an unidentified man, a
customer in one Of the barrooms

murderous tour.
Police, trying to piece together
the details of the tragedy from
excited gesticulating Latins, learn.
ed that Spinetti entered the Colum-
bo hotel and started conyersing
with Pagano.
The bartender started to duck
behind the bar as Spinetti drew a
gun and fired. The bullet passed
through Pagano's head Another
shot from the gun struck down the
unidentified customer.
Spinetti rushed from the hotel
.. nd entered another barroom.
There he shot Dalucchi through the
heart, then he turned the gun on

temple.
All four men were dead when Pc
lice reached the scene.

There is no excuse for the
mother who neglects to give
her baby it's daily dose of cod
liver oil. All babies need it.
And those who fail to receive
it are likely to be called upon
later IN life to pay a heavy
price for its omission in their
diet in infancy.
After First Month
To be sure, many of us did
not receive it in childhood.
Our mothers hadn't the advan-
tage of modern scientific knowl-
edge.
Cod liver oil should be given
the child regularly after the
end of the first month. prefer
ably by the end of the second
week.
The artifically fed baby should
begin taking his cod liver oil
earlier than the breast fed one.
But that does not mean that
cod liver oil may be omitted
for the breast fed infant.
If the nursing mother is get
ting plenty Of sunshine her
milk will do much to prevent
her baby developing ricketts,, but
the baby needs cod liver oil
in addition to her milk to in
sure his immunity to this dis
ease.
Begin with one-half tea
spoonful twice a day of pure
cod liver oil tested for vitaman
D (the antirachitic vitamin).
It is important that only tested
oil be bought. There are many
brands and practically all Of
them are good.
Regular Doses
During the second month in
crease the amount of oil given
to a teaspoonful twice a day
and during the third month to
~ teaSpoonsful. This should
again be increased during the
fourth month to 2 teaspoons
fuls twice a day and continued
in this amount for at least the
first two years of life. The
artifically fed baby is given the
same amount Of oil as the
breast fed one.
The daily dosing of oil is The
best certain preventive Of rick
cts, q nutritional disease ef-
fecting especially the bones and
muscles and resulting in such
deformities as bow legs. etc.

One Of New York's largest
stores Is sponsoring a brand
new hair arrangement, a varia-
tion on the plaits Of hair we
wrote about recently. This is a
plait, made to be worn flat on
the head, so a hat can fit over
it, and it is fashioned of mate
rial to match the particular
frock you have chosen for an
occasion, whether it is for day.
time or evening.
If you are going South, these
fabric plaits may be had in cot
ton pique to match your tennis
dress or they may be had in a
variety Of fabric combinations
and colorS. Then when you
want to don your hat, they are
so fashioned that they lie flat
on the head and will not inter-
fere with your smallest hat.
Various ColOrS
# you fancy this style for an
evening hair ornament, plaits
may be had in various crepes in
an assortment Of colors.
We have discovered some
brand new ones, however, on
Connecticut Avenue.
Adjustable
The plat is adjustable, so
you may wear the whole thing,
or only half if you want it to
end Just at the top Of each ear,
which you very likely would if
your hair is short. The full
length would be worn with long
hair.
This is really a fascinating
style and vastly becoming to
certain types.

later when the weakness of the
muscles and the deformities of
the bones become apparent.
The baby with ricketts, may be
restless, irritable and pale. He
may be slow in teething and
learning to walk. His weight,
however, may be normal and
can not be regarded as a judge
of whether or not the child
need cod liver oil.
If a child's chest has been
greatly deformed by severe
ricketts,, the deformity may pre-
vent his lungs from expanding
properly and he may be SUBJ
ject to lung infections. Be-
sides a child who has ricketts, is
not able to throw off infection
or stand an attack of illness as
well as a normal child.
Thus, although rickets may
not cause death, it may cause
complications that will. A Sc
we're complication of ricketts, is
a disease known as tetany.
from which many children
have been known to die.
A rapidly growing baby is
more subject to ricketts, than
one who is growing more
slowly. Premature babies are
especially subject to it.

cupful peas, beans, carrots and
celery, chopped fine.
Add one can Of tomatoes, one
green pepper, also chopped fine,
and a fourth cupful Of rice or
barley, well washed. Lastly add
one small can of corn and SIM
mer all together for an hour
longer.
For the stewed fruits dried
varieties, in combination, do
very nicely and a blending Of
dried pears, apricots and
pruneS makes a good compete.
Usually I throw a couple Of
thin slices Of lemand into the
stewing pot, and always sugar
goes in, and a dash of Gin
namon Gin stick form If it
is handy and a few whole
cloves. The sugar goes in to
taste, needless to say, for the
degree Of sweetness desired in
this sort of a dessert Is de-
cidedly individual.
The dried fruits must be
soaked overnight in cold water,
the water drained off and
then fresh (cold) water used
to simmer them until they are
tender. I usually dress this
plain dessert in party attire
by serving it in stem glasses
topped by q dash of whipped
cream to which a bit Of
whipped currant jelly has been
added. to give color and zeSt.
This also makes an excellent
breakfast dish.
Creamy Cup Cakes
Two-thirds cupful butter
1 cupful sugar
Pinch salt
4 eggs-not separated
l cupful sweet milk
3 1-3 cupful flour-scant
4 teaspoonfuls baking powder
u teaspoonful ground mace
4 drops almond extract
Cream and butter well and
add the sugar gradually. Cream
until a smooth and slightly
fluffy paste and then add the
eggs which have been well
beaten. Mix and sift the dry
ingredients together and add to
the butter and sugar mixture
alternately with the milk. Add
the touch of almond extract
(may be omitted If deSired) and
bake in muffin tins until done
by straw test and cakes tend
to leave the sides Of the pan.
The time of baking will some
what depend upon the size of
miffin pans used. Cover with
chocolate fudge which has been
cooked until it forms q very
soft, insure ball in cold water
# cooked too long the fudge
icing will harden and crack on
the cakes.
Which is the end Of today's
holding forth on the subject
Of cookery and such like and
brings us now to the point Of
thinking about a fish dish for
the week.

F Feminlne Figures

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Figur-
ing things out is a favorite fash
ion sport, as we'll as a financial
one, these days. With as many
different figures as there are
women, and only one smart sill
houette to fit them all, it is
easily understood how "figur-
ing" may become a fine art.
Slim, streamline effects are
the modern silhouette Of the
m o IN emit. With snug-fitting
fashions setting the single
standard in silhouettes for 1884,
remodeling all sorts of 1888 and
1882 figures to conform to it Is
no light task.

methods that smack somewhat

Figure Faults
Roughly speaking, all figure
faults fall into one Of three
general groups-average, top
heavy or hip-heavy.
If your bust overbalanceS
the rest Of your figure, you
come under the top-heavy
class, to which 10 per cent Of
all figures belong. If you're
the other way round, with too
large hips, you're included in
the 20 per cent that forms the
h1p-heavy group.
If your hips and bust are
in proportion, as are 10 per
cent of all figures, then you
have nothing further to worry
about. These are the scien-
tific figures by which our styl-
lists achieve the fashion figures

I thought of that first and
then the idea of the ham came
to me as just the thing to
care for Thursdays dinner
and again, in stuffed peppers
or something, for Saturdays
supper. Friday, of course, is
fish day. So here's a menu
built along those lines.
Thursdays Dinner
Cooks Kettle Soup
Toasted Crackers
Baked Sliced Ham

French Fried Eggplant
Stewed Fruits

The kettle soup, strained. will
do for Fridays dinner If we so
desire and the eggplant, by
choosing a small one which goes
far when French fried, will be
all consumed in the one serving.
For our fish dish dinner Of
Friday we always choose our
vegetable carefully that it may
nicely complement the fish
which is served. Now then, to
business.

Baked Sliced Ham

Wash a 2 or 21a-inch thick
slice Of smoked ham and place
in frying pan. Cover with cold
water, bring slowly to the boil
ing point and simmer just be-
low boiling for 20 minutes to
each pound Of ham. Remove
to a shallow baking pan and
sprinkle with brown sugar.
Add a small amount Of maple
syrup to about three-quarters Of
a cupful Of water and pour over
the meat. Ground or whole
cloves in small quantity may be
added if desired. Bake for
about a half hour, basting fre-
quently, and serve on heated
platter with liquor which re-
mains in pan after taking from

Child Health
Questions
COLIC

Question Can you tell me
something about collie? My
baby is breast-fed, but is sub
ject to frequent attacks.
Mrs. J. C. .
AnSwer-Colic (pain in the
abdomen) is more common in
breast-fed babies than it Is in
bottle-fed ones. It is usually
due to pressure Of air in the
intestines. It may be caused
by overfeeding or it may occur
in babies who are constipated.
Regulation Of the feeding is
important in controlling it. 1t
is not very serious. but if it is
persistent you should consult
with the baby's doctor regard
ing his feeding. Sometimes it
is due to the fact that the
mothers milk is not satisfac
tory. It Is more common in
the early months Of life and
usually disappears when the
child grows older.
Treatment of the immediate
symptoms consists in getting
rid Of the gas. Put the baby
over your shoulder and give him
a sip Of warm water. It may
be necessary to give him small
enema. which Is much more
effective than medicine. Medi-
cine should never be given ex-
cept on the doctors advice.
The Washington times., 1934-01-31

It used to be something IKE
drudgery, but in the past few
years color has come into the
kitchen, the closet and the
bathroom. So now it's a pleas
ure, and takes as much In
genuity and planning as select
ing your own wardrobe.
Bathrooms have come into
much Of the fashion spotlight
recently, and there are stun
ming new fitments for them.
In fact there is so much news
that we're only going to take
up bath linens this time, and
leave the other things for o
later story.
Stripes and PIsids
Darker colors are the keynote
10 bathroom chic these days.
Tailored patterns are another
new idea, and they threaten to
supplant all the elaborate
flower, fish and bird designs
that we've used for some time.
Just plain stripes, checks or
plaid designs seem smarter than
anything more elaborate.
The Highlander
Among the stunning new
towels, bath rugs and bath mats
that you see about town are
the plaid designs, named
Highlander" They come in
red, dark green, brown, or blue,
plaided with white.
These dark colorS go well
with modern bathrooms, and
give q touch Of chic to our old
rooms not decorated recently,
II they are chosen to harmon
ize. We're showing a photo
graph Of a set Of them, in red,
though Of course they're avail
able In the other colors, too.
ChevrOn Weave
Then there's the "Barbadoes"
design, just white for the towel
and wash cloth, with deep col
ored bath mat to m q t C h.
They come in red. green, brown
or blue, with the mat in solid
color.
Meshy Stitch
Monogramming used to be so
expensive, unless you did 1t
yourself, that you couldn't af-
ford it for the bathroom things.
But now there's a system Of do
ing it by machine that looks for
all the world like hand EN-.
broidery, and is proportionately
less expensive. And there's
method of monogramming tow
els called the Add-stitch, which
make the initials look just like
the texture Of the towels.
Ideal for Gifts
You can have your initials, in
any design you choose, put on
your towels in the Add-stich, in
two inch height or over. Smaller
initials must be made in chain
stitch, which is quite effective
too.
We have a picture on our page
today showing smart monogram
designs. The F. A. F. set is done
In brown on tan towels. a stun
ming combination. G. E. D. is in
