that tho waffles are thoroughly baked on
both sides. Another kind of Iron, which

Do not hold too close to the blaze or a
great deal of smoke will be caused. Let

In case j-ou do not know of a recipe for

To Become a Girl Scout

Dear Madam I am n Ctrl of nlnet-en and
would IlVe. to ronie n member of n Rood and
active illr' ,rout tiand. Would ou be kind
enouKh to let me Know where a few of them are
located anil what Is required of me to become
a member'' I thank ou for any other Informa
tion ou can Klie me. ANNA I..
Girl Scout bands have been organized In
everj- part of the city. The headquarters,
where j-ou can get very exact Information
about whom to consult on Joining one of
these troops. Is at 31 South Seventeenth
street. Miss Kdlth Harper, executive sec-retarj-.
will be ery glad to tell jou of
the different activities nf the various troops
in the different city districts. I am told
there Is at least one band of girls about
j-our own age; It would be Interesting to
Join tlietn. In order to be a Girl Scout
nothing In particular Is required of j'ou
at first except to "promise to honor God
and countrj", to help othora and to obey
the rcout laws." The laws outline a code
of honor for the members. The activities
of tho scouts aro numerous. They learn
first aid, signaling and many other Inter
esting and useful things. They go camping,
and once having passed the "tenderfoot"
test may wear tho scout uniform. Some
of the girls of your age have formed bands
of their own among the j'ounger girls.
Girls Should Not Take Cocktails
To the L'dltor of IPomaii'a rage;
Dear Madam Ts It good form for a ounr
clrl to drink cocktails In a restaurant when
she Is alone with a ounc man? How old must
a Elrl he before aha can feel privileged to co
alone with a man to a restaurant or rsfe?
MARION.
It Is lint good form for a j'oung girl to
drink cocktails, cither In a restaurant or at
home. Not that there Is any harm In the
mere taking of the drink Itsolf, but for
the sake of example and of what people
say. Hut even If she should take one at her
own home In the presenco of her family
and with their approval, she should be care
ful not to do so In a restaurant or cafe,
especially If she Is alone with a young man.
Only of lato has custom made It pos
sible for a girl of twenty or so to go alone
with a man to a restaurant or cafe for
luncheon. She should not go alone for
dinner or supper unless Bho Is well on the
shady side of twenty-flve, and only then
when she knows the man very well. Of
course, In America an engaged girl Is al
lowed to go to a cafe or restaurant with
her fiance for supper, but If she Is very
young It Is even then considered better to
have a chaperon.
Ask Her If You May Call First
To the Editor ot Woman' t rage:

She would not be offended If she Is a
sensible girl, but why not ask her first If
you may call on her, Riid after several calls

In a. prison camp of the Allies does not

which, compared to tho German trenches, Is

Food the Natural Laxative
Aia, yy.
..'i-j
FOOD Is the natural laxative, and the
activity set up In the stomach by the
taklnr of food ls communicated to the en
tire Intestinal tract.
The result Is that the Intestinal activity
set up by the taking of food Into the
stomach not only serves to pass digesting
food out of the stomach Into the Intestine,
but at the same time serves to move for
ward collections of food or food residues at
various points in the alimentary canal.
When, for example, dinner Is taken, a
portion of tho breakfast Is still In the small
intestine. The effect of peristaltic activity
set up by the taking of the dinner Is to
cause the small Intestine to empty Itself Into
the colon. A.
During the activity excited by the dinner
the residues ot tho breakfast, which have
reached the colon, are gradually pushed
farther alons until at the end of eight or
ten hours they reach the lower part ot tho
colon.
When supper Is taken a new series' of
vigorous peristaltic waves ls set In motion.
These pusli the unusablosrcmnants of the
dinner foivvard Into the colon.
In other words, the peristaltic wave set
up by each meal should cause ths ad
vancement of the preceding meal from the
email Interline Into the colon
This Is the normal Intestinal rhythm, an!
the nearer it can be approximated In actual
experience the better.
The writer Is convinced that the highest
degreo of health, comfort, efficiency and
longevi'y can only bo obtained by main
taining t-.tih a degree of intestinal activity
as will prevent the accumulation in the
colon of pultefylng materials.
l-'or these putrefying materials contain!,
nste the blood, and by unnecessary nnd ex
cessive wotk wear out the liver, kidneys nnd
other polson-destroylng oigans: damage the

PATSY KILDARE, OUTLAW
By JUDD MORTIMER LEWIS
THIS morning I had made the coffee and
stirred and flopped the pancakes before
mv father came fiom his night watching.
When ho saw my buck eyes and I told
him how 1 got them he was awful mad.
He told me to tell Imogcne that the next
time she did anything to me he would not
hurt her. but he would, go around to her
bouse and make her father eat dirt. Then
1 laughed at him and I think I must have
looked funny, for pretty soon be laughed,
too. and said, "1 am glsd my little girl Is
such a good little spoil." What were two
black eyes after that'.'
Then my father told me all about Mr.
Carpenter's getting flattened out. He said
Mr. Carpenter died before he knew what
hurt him. It must have been a great sur
prise to him to be heie one minute pnd on
bis way to heaven the next. My father said
they were going to have the funeral today.
There was crape on the door when I went
past, but I did not see anybody and so I
went along and climbed a high tiee In the
Iron dog man's yard and sang all I knew
about being a good sport, and what a good
dog Howdy Is. and about my having a
mother In heaven and being Irish and every
thing else that I -was proud of.
Then a window blind flew open tight
across from me, and (there was the old
maid sister, and sho was laughing, and she
certainly did look sweet. She said, "What
are you, a mocking bhd? You sing like
one." I said, "I am only Patsy." Then
she dressed and came out with a bat and
she pitched me a ball and I hit It some
times, and after a while I said. "I have
known lots of old maids, but you havo got
them all skinned." Sho said. "Who told
you I was an old maid?" I told her that
her brother did. and just then ho came
out She said to him, "Did you tell Patsy
that 1 am an old maid?" He said, "Yes.
for JI knew sho would find It out, anyway."
That must havo been a. Joke, for they both
laughed, but It got past me, though very
few Jokes do.
Then I went to school and I did not
see Imogene till lecess and she looked kind
of scared, but I have not yet thought wiiat
I am going to hand her, so I said nothing.
After school I went home and Mr. Carpen
ter had been burled and lie Face Wilbur
was playing out in front of his house and
he bad on A new suit. I did not stop to
speak to him, for I saw some one In our
front yard and I had to run. It was th
nurse who thinks sho is trained and she
took me to the hospital. They were going
to take Alice home and were waltlne for
me! Wouldn't that freeze you?
They let Howdy and me ride In the
ambulance with her, and when she got
home she sat up on their big porch in a
