REMOVING CREAM SPOT?
From N. H. H., Upper Marl-

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lovman

Across the seas the greatest trag-
edy in history, the starvation and
aftermath Of the worlds worst war
is being enacted with terrible grim
ness. Millions of people are going
to die of starvation unless they re-
ceive our help.
In Greece the daily ration dipped
to $50 calories in March with fur
ther cuts expected, in Italy the daily
ration is 1000 calories, and MIR
Hoover tells us that the situation
in Poland is far worse than it Is In
Italy. He also warns us that entire
villages in the interior OF China
our gallant ally, face death within a
few weeks unless supplies reach this
area.
Yes, across the sea people are
dying for lack of food while here
in our land thousands of people eat
too much for best health and bring
themselves discomfort, illness ano
shorter lives, because Of too many
pounds. 1t seems that there could
be no better time torimpress upon
your mind the importance Of cut
ting down on your calorie intake
ii you are overweight.
You probably have planned to dc
this for a long time but just haven't
got around to it. Now you have a
double reason for leaving those
extra calories on the grocer's shelf
Millions Of people abroad are going
to die Of starvation unless they re-
ceive your help and millions here
will die too soon, grow old toe
quickly, find themselves harassed by
fatigue and small disabilities, unless
they reduce their calorie intake ano
their weight.
An elaborate organization has
been set up in the United States
and emergency committees all ovel
the country are working with the
Department OF Agriculture and theil
directors OF the Production anc
Marketing Administration, who are
acting as State food emergency
program managers.
The Army and Navy and many
organizations are cooperating bu,
the program will never succeed az
it should unless 1t reaches the heart
Of the woman in the home. It il
she who plans the meals and doe.
the marketing. Most women woulc
gladly 60 for days without food ir
order to help a starving child anc
Mr.. Hoover placed his words right
on the feminine heart when he said
Il can only appeal to your pity ano
to your mercy and sense of service
I know the heart OF the American
people will respond with kindness
and be generous to all suffering
viii you not take to your table ar
invisible guest?"
Why not let the suffering abroad
supply the incentive for doing what
you have meant to do anyway, cui
down on calories? If you are nor
NAL weight you can increase you,
intake of certain much needed foods
and still remain vibrant and up tc
par.
There are many ways in which
you can help. I shall discuss some
Of them in my column this week.
If you wish to have my calorie
chart to help you measure your food
intake, send a stamped, self-ad.

OF doing best seller, and If she en-
joys feeling that she is an impor-
tant cog in the big wheel of business
Apparently you miss all of this
Your work is only drudgery to
you You put nothing into it that
will ever make it worth your en-
ployer paying you big salary for
it; so I think you are right to
change your occupation. Therefore
I advise you TO sit down and have
an honest heart-to heart talk with
yourself and try to find out what
it is that you want to do. and en-
joy doing, and have turn for do
ing, and then go into that as your
life work.
If your self-analysis does not
throw any light on the subject, go
to one of the Vocational Guidance
Clinics and have yourself tested.
But from your letter I gather that
you are looking for some job that
will have a big salary and no work,
and that will give you plenty of
social contacts and chance to
marry again. And there are no such
Jobs outside of fairy tales.

way home he was wrecked and lost
both ship and cargo. In 1895 he
made another attempt and set out
for Padang in the brig "Ra iah''-
of tiny 120 tons,
BY that time the pepper trade had
been pretty well cornered by the
French and the Dutch, so Capt.
Carnes steered north, through un-
charted waters, from port to port,
picking up pepper as he went along
He returned to Salem with a cargo
of pepper that had cost him some
$4,000 and which he promptly sold
for a tidy $l44,0OO. He tried to keep
his source of supply profound
secret, but another Salem captain
finally discovered it, followed by
other seafaring men from the little
New England town, who proceeded
TO amaSs sizable fortunes in the
pepper and coffee trade. The last
Salem ship in pepper commerce was
the Australia, which visited Sumatra
in 1861, and unloaded the last cargo
of pepper to be discharged at the
Salem wharf.
Pepper is. actually. name applied
to several pungent spices known as
black, white, long. red or cayenne

licked her hand and wagged his tail.
She picked him up and carried him
upstairs to his mat under the bed,
out as soon as she turned toward
the door Bowser jumped up and
raced downstairs to his place by the
fire, saying as distinctly AS any little
dog could say it, I'm staying here"
"Bowser says he is staying by the
fire tonight" said mother. He
doesn't like a boy who pinches him.
Sonny cried, but Bowser stayed by
the freside. 1t took several days of
repentent kindness to win Bowser
back to his OLD place, but Sonny
worked hard at it and in the end
won him back. But he has respect
for his dogs feeling, now.
There are not many dogs as firm
in their decisions as BoWser, and
there are many little boys who have
a little fun pinching their dogs and
pulling their tails. If Bowser takes
a stand and maintains it, the young
ster will learn quickly-but if not,
and too often the dog accepts what
ever treatment he receives and
keeps right on loving his unkind
master some one ought to take Bow
ser's place and teach the naughty
youngster that i'll treatment means
the loss of his pet until there is
some evidence of better behavior.

rocked ever since a small baby and
enjoyed "Teeter- babe" when very
young, then a child's rocker and he
has never outgrown the habit OF
rocking Gf such it Isl. Even when
sitting on stationary chair, sofa
or whatever, he continues to rock
humping his back constantly against
the back of the chair or sofa. After
a time this becomes quite annoying
but all efforts to direct his attention
from this type of rocking (or bump
ing) have been to no avail. I have
seen a good many babies with
similar habits but I wonder If any
continued it as long as this? My
little girl, l year, has begun rocking
like this and I am wondering If it
is a natural baby inclination or if
it is from watching her older
brother. I will certainly appreciate
any enlightenment on the subject
from you mothers with such ex-
perience. Do let me hear from you,
please.

COOP BOOK.
From Mrs. J. B. H., WaShington.)
In reading The Star recently l
saw a request about Coop Book.
I believe l can help you out. Many
years ago when my son, now 36,
was a small child ne had one sent
him from Massachusetts, and we
used it very thoroughly and how
he hated to be called COOP! Now
he has a little fellow 2 years old
and when he is here with me, it Is
the Coop Book he likes best OF all
his books. I am surprised, as they
are not colored, just sketches. 1t
Is, of course, too old for him, but
he doesn't want to be COOP and
seems to understand their tricks.
I think it is fine manual OF man.

Burgess and he has several Coop
Books. Mine Is the first one

have as much pleasure out of it as
we have. 1t is we'll worn and was

PIZZA:
PENCIL MARKS?
From Mrs. F. S. G., Fails
Church, V1.)
Haven't seen a reply, so far, to the
request for recipe for PizZa. Here's
one, given me by native Italian
which we enjoy frequently. Seven
and half cups flour, l teaspoon
salt, l cake fresh yeast, Ia cups
lukewarm water, cans tomatoes
(or equivalent of cooked fresh to-
matoes), z medium onions, l cup
grated cheese, one 2-ounce can of
anchovy fillets, marjoram. Dissolve
yeast in Il cup of water and work
into flour and salt, sifted together.
Gradually work in rest OF water un-
til dough is workable but somewhat
stiff. Add more water if necessary
Allow dough to rise until crust
forms, and cracks around the top
(about hours Slice onions
thinly and fry in olive oil, using low
flame and covered pan SO onions will
be soft and not very brown. Press
dough very thinly into shallow bak-
ing pans or cookie sheets, creased
with olive oil, and then spread with
other ingredients in this order: To-
matoes squeezed so they are pulpy
and not too moist. fried onions, an
chovies broken in small pieces,
cheese, marjoram (use sparingly) +,
salt and pepper to taste. Bake in
$50 degree oven until brown (about
IS to 40 minutes. Serve very hot,
cut in large squares.
Variations: Cd Omit anchovies
and substitute broiled chicken livers
or mushrooms; ca omit anchovies
and grated cheese and cover with
very thin slices OF American cheese
Now can some one tell me how to
remove ordinary pencil scribbles

PRESSURE COOKER.

From Mrs. C. ~ M, Washington
I, like Mrs. c. B. p, College Park,
often say that my pressure cooker Is
worth its weight in gold.
have used mine for about four
or five years and like it more and
more as time goes by, and am al
ways discovering new ways to use it..
There is one little thing, however,
which I want to mention and Won
der if others also have had this ex-
perience If there are several ket-
ties cooking on the top of the gas
stove at the same time the cooker
is being used 1 find that the accum-
ulated heat arising from the other
vessels is inclined to make the pres
sure cooker get too hot. By that I
mean the gauge may go on past the
cooking mark
So, try to use my pressure cook
er when I am not cooking other
things on the top Of the stove. OF
course, one might watch the pot"
and keep the flame lowered sum-
GENTLY. But as bit of good ad-
vice to young cooks I offer the sug-
gestion that heat enters through the
sides of the cooker and is inclined
to raise the temperature which has
already been regulated and which
ordinarily would stay set.
I should like so much to talk to
Mrs. c. B. p, College Park. I want
information which she has con-
cerning canning three pint jars in
her four-quart pressure cooker.
II she will call me, Columbia
1914, I will appreciate it very much
I have never used my cooker for
canning purposes and have often
imagined it could be thus utilized
Her remarks are very interesting
and helpful.
