.Jellied Soup
Hot Weather
Delight
Bv Edith NJ. Barber

With warm weather we have been
accustomed to use jellied consomme
often as a first course. We bought
this ready-made and put 1t in the
refrigerator to harden and turn out
into soup cups for service. 1t is
still available in the tomato favored
madrilene and the green turtle, but
we have to use four points for each
l4-ounce can. You can make
jellied soup from stock which you
have prepared from leftover bones,
although you probably would not
care to 60 through the trouble of
clarifying it these days. You can
also get a pretty good jellied soup
by using bouillon cubes as a base.
T add little extra water and few
herbs and spices and let the mix
ture cook for IS minutes or so
before I strain it into softened
gelatin. This is refreshing adjunct
to meal.
A combination OF tomato Juice
which at the moment you wilr need
points to buy. but fewer than you
did last month, and the bouillon
may be used.
With jellied soup or salad crack
ers are always in order There have
been some delicious new types of
crackers added to the line of one
manufacturer. One type has an
increased amount Of shortening
which makes them very crisp and
allows them to be eaten without
butter. There is new small, round
graham cracker, real PennSyl-
vania Dutch pretzel stick, and some
soya cocktail crackers. 1t is en-
couraging to have a few new prod
ucts these days. Another new as
sortment contains three types of
smoked turkey, that delicacy which
has become so popular in the last
few years. There is a sliced meat,
a diced meat, and a pate. None of
these are cheap, but they are un-
rationed and available when fresh
turkey is so scarce. Mixed with
celery, a jar Of the diced turkey
will yield six servings for a main
dish for supper.

PEACHES; ALUMINIUM.
(Thanks to Mrs. C. C. L., Jr.,
Washington.)


Washington
read your column every night
that 1t appears and have bene-
flied accordingly from its sugges-
tions.
Perhaps some Of your readers can
tell me why my oven-canned
peaches began turning dark about
last January. I put them up for
the first time last summer and had
no spoilage. I would like to can
them again this summer If I can
find the reason for the dis
coloration. I hope this question is
of general enough interest for your
column, as ! have heard others
complain Of their peaches darken-
ing. too.
For those who are tired of look
ing at blackened aluminium, here is
suggestion or two: Every time
you use lemon juice for hair rinses
or cold drinks, put the skins and
pulp into your darkest pot with
water to fill and boil for 10 to 20
minutes or until bright. Then wash
with soapsudS. Also, there is Jar
Of paste now on a chain stores shelf
which works as well as steel wool
pads do.
Thanks for any consideration in
your fine column.

DYEING FABRIC.
fRequested by H. p. Camp Springs }
I enjoy your page so much. Will
you give me some suggestions on
the following?
I have three pieces of flowered
crash material, slip covers with

faded out almost completely. Could
they be dyed or tinted light green
to make them brighter? If so, how
much dye to use? Thanks,

Baby Learns to
Creep After
Sitting Up
Br Leffice Lee Street,

jamie found herself sitting on
blanket spread over the grass. This
was a new experience: she sat there
her back as straight as a little poker,
and surveyed the surrounding scene
with the greatest interest and pleas
ure. She only recently had mastered
the art Of gaining sitting posi-
ton unassisted-so she sat upright
on her blanket with pardonable
pride and elf-confidence
Her curious eyes noted many tiny
sharp bits of green that seemed to
stick up in little spikes all around
the coverlet. She put out one chubby
hand to touch them, but they were
plainly out of reach. She called her
mother, waved to the grass and in
her own language asked her politely
to please give her some of the little
green spikes to play with. Her moth
er only smiled, nodded and returned
to the pages of her book jamie now
pointed to the grass with one fat
finger, and raised her voice. Her
mother merely said, My, my! What
a racket" and tossed her a toy.
jamie was now thoroughly put out,
and fairly spluttering with exasper-
alton, she tried to puzzle way to
reach those green spikes. They were
out Of reach. mother did not under
stand her wishes, so the only thing
left to do was to fetch some of the
mysterious stuff herself. But how?
To reach the grass now became
Janies burning ambition!
Curling herself into chubby ball.
the little girl tried to roll off the
blanket, but her direction was not
accurate, and she seemed to 60 in
circles-what a slow and tedious
business! Resting for a moment as
she lay on her stomach, jamie sud-
denly discovered that with her knees
under her she could propel herself
forward with her hands and knees
and that it was not hard to keep
her head up at the same time. She
was off-and her surprised mother
looked up to see her little daughter
sitting contentedly on the lawn,
thoughtfully chewing a few of the
green blades of grass.
If your baby begins to creep at
about the eighth month you should
be pleased because this is the course
of normal development Not all in
fants creep, some roll about or slide
about, propelling themselves with
hands and heels while they are in
a sitting position.
Creeping is fine exercise-it is
good for the muscles of the. neck
(the head is held high, back, legs
and arms, There is no reason to in
terfere with creeping or to try to
encourage it-but If baby likes to
crawl about he should be given the
room in which to do so.
Precautions are these: Let him
wear shoes, and long overal}s are
best, because both of these articles
of clothing are protection against
splinters. Watch him every mo-
ment, as the creeping baby some
times acquires incredible speed!
Guard him from porch edges and
the tops of steps and watch his
f1ngers-no telling what his birds
eye may spy that his busy hands
will put into his mouth.

that there are great many cases
in which a bright bangle has saved
a life. The natives, some Of the more

indeed, who isn't?

lecting these discarded dust catch

in both their New York and Wash

your worn out ornaments, no mat
ter what shape they're in, and the
Twelfth Nighters report that they're
already sagging under the weight of
the broken down junk jewelry
which has been turned in in New
York.

useless ornamentation, and If it

UtensiI Care

Although thrifty housewives don't
put as much into the garbage pail
these days as they used to, still this
utensil is household necessity. To
keep it from being source of un-

weekly soaking with warm soapy
water. Rinse with scalding water,
then set in the sun to dry before re-

jor violations of sanitation exist
ing.
Formal inspections together with
a complete report on conditions Will
begin next Monday, the results

issued to each establishment on
that basis.
Gradings will be by letters: G.

Real Fight 10 Begin in
Alaska on Tuberculosis;
Dr.. Hendri(kson COMING

Made possible by the laudable
action of the recent Territorial
Legislature in passing the tubercu-
losis law and appropriation, Alaska
is now armed and ready to begin a
constructive fight against its most
dread disease, tuberculosis.
Through this action it has been
possible to secure the services of
one of the nations outstanding
specialists in the treatment of the
disease, DR.. r. r. HendrickSon
who is scheduled to reach Juneau
early in May and will then inau-
gurate a sweeping program of ac-
ton rather than study such as
has been the case in the past.
Working as tuberculosis consul
tant for the Territorial Department
of Health, DR.. Hendrickson will
carry out a program which as
planned, will furnish a number of
months work with physicians
throughout the Territory.
Surgical Treatment
He will examine first known and
suspected cases, and selected ones
that ordinarily react favorably to
minor surgical procedures will be
operated on. Initially these will be
the more advanced cases where the
greatest hope lies in closing of the
cavities, thereby preventing such
persons from giving the disease to

JACKSON CHARGED
WITH ASSAULT TO
KILL IN SHOOTING

William c. Jackson was charged
officially today with assaulting his
wife, Marie, with intent to kill
her with shotgun. Both Jackson
and his wife are now in st. AIMS
Hospital recuperating from the ef-

left forearm off, and then turned
the weapon on himself, shooting off
the left side of his face.
Mrs. jackson was suing for di-
vorce, and the summons was served
on Jackson on the afternoon before
the shooting took place
