should be used, because it adds con-
centrated heat units.
Some foods, such as bread, butter,
milk, celery, lettuce, crackers and
pretzels, are naturally rich in salt and
should be. included literally in the
summer diet. Ice cream and plain
cake or fruit pie is an excellent dessert.
A third rule for beating the heat
Is to wear a minimum of light porous
clothing. But keep out of the intense,
direct rays of the summer sun. Seek
the shade.
Frequent bathing in cool water is
the fourth rule. When bathing at a
beach or a lake. be sure that you can
swim. and don't overdo your aquatic
exercises.
In cases of heat exhaustion, as in
dicated by dizziness, nausea, -profuse
sweating, staggering gait, weak pulse
and sometimes vomiting, place the VIC
tim in the shade in circulating air,
keep him warm, give cool water with
little salt in it. few swallows at
time, and stimulants. and give cold

complaining.
Second, watch your diet. Eliminate
heavy foods and decrease your food

simple desserts make the best hot
weather fare.
Increase fluid intake to replace water
lost from the body by Precipitation.
Among the best summer beverages are
milk and buttermilk, pure fruit juices,
carbonated drinks and water. Be sure
that the milk Is pasteurized or certi-

French cooks have long been noted
for their ability to prepare tempting
and delicious creations from leftovers.
Perhaps we can even give them the
credit for originating two of the most
popular ways in which leftovers are
used today. namely-Timbales and
Croquettes. since both of these words
are of French origin; croquettes COM
ing from the word "croquer," meaning
to crunch, and timbale is the French
word for "kettledrum," the shape Of
the mold in which this dish is usually
prepared.
Timbales and croquettes are alike in
that they both offer a splendid use for
small quantities Of leftover foods. They
are unlike otherwise. since the base
for a timbale Is custard and for most
croquettes it is a thick white sauce
The method of cooking. them also
varies: croquettes are fried in deep
fat and timbales are baked at a very
moderate heat.
Leftover meats and vegetables often
remain leftovers until it is too late to
eat them. or until they have been con-
sumed under the heading Of snack.
Not condemning the snack in any way,
for refrigerator raiders must have
something, for their efforts, but budgets
out of the red If careful consideration
Is given to the possibilities of using
leftoverS in main course for suppers,
luncheonS and even dinners to follow
in a day or so.
A cupful of leftover ham, beef or
some other. meat doesn't seem like
much of a contribution toward a main
does a cupful of macaroni, rice or po-
tatoes, yet there are many croquette
and timbale recipes based on lust such
a foundation They make attractive
and practical main dishes.
Since timbales and croquettes have a
definite place in economy menus, it
will also be well to consider what other
with them. If leftover meats, or meat
offenders, are the base, then it is pos
sible to consider almost any one of the
vast number OF canned vegetables be-
cause they may definitely be considered
as budget savers. They make it pos
sible for the homemaker to buy out Of
season foods at reasonable price and
to buy in quantity when the grocer
offers them at a bargain.
In the field of canned vegetables,
homemakers will naturally include
peas, because they are particularly ap-
propriate for serving with timbales and
croquettes. They are extra thrifty, too,
and are available in style for every
menu. Their dietetic value should not
source of vitamins A, B and C, and
contribute good amounts OF minerals
such as phosphorus and iron. Because
canned peas are packed quickly where
they grow. they have that "just picked"
flavor. Then remember their many
ADVANTAGES and use them often. and
especially when taking count OF the
possibilities they offer with timbales
and croquettes. Serve them buttered,
creamed or in cheese sauce.

nautical mood, have V-neckline with
a blithe sailor collar in matching or

purpose was to advocate temper
ance and women's rights. For pub
licity purposes, Mrs. Bloomer adopt
ed a costume consisting of jacket
with close sleeves and pair of
Turkish pantaloons secured around
the ankle by bands. Several of her
contemporary advocates of women's
rights wore the same costume and
these persons were known as
"Bloomerites" or just "Bloomers."
The campaign died out but the
pantaloon idea did not. A modified
form, shortened to gather just be-

and became the boomers as worn
