WATERCRESS RECIPES
And Advises Plentiful Use of This Crisp, Snappy Green
This Fall As a Salad, in Filling, in Soup
and Other Practical Ways
My suts. m.
rorvrtoht. IJI.". tu
All llmMs
A DISH piled high with crisp
green watercress will appeal to
the eye and appetite. This delicious
succulent green, should be a daily
visitor to our tables, particularly
during the late faM and early win
tor, when one is apt to feel that the
plentiful use of fresh vegetables is
"expensive, or perhaps when these
vegetables are scarce in the mar
kets. Without the use of the fresh
vegetables the! blood becomes slug
gish and dull and the crisp little
Watercress is simply alive with
valuable life-giving elements that
enrich and purify the blood stream.
Watercress has nearly twice the
quantity of mineral salts and acids
that rhubarb has. The pungent
sharp flavor of the watercress is
dtlfj. to the volatile oils which dis
guise the acid taste.
English folk serve this green
grass abundantly, both as a salad
and as a garnish, and as ix filling
for sandwiches. While the French,
use it not only for all these things, I
but also in soup, and as a braised
vegetable green, cooked in the sum-
mer similar to spinach, in omelet
and chopped fine, and poached in
bacon fat. Also served with poached (
or scrambled eggs.
Watercress is an aquatic plant. I
with a pungent and sndppy flavor.
It grows wild in shallow, rapidly
moving streams, that have a clear
Handy bottom. Under cultivation it,
is usually grown in wide trenches, I
which are supplied with slowly run
ning water. It leads in the vege
table kingdom, with the exception I
of spinach, in suppyling the natural 1
mineral salts.
This grass needs to be carefully i
cleansed before it can be eaten.
Tiny, minute slugs and mites infest
this plant, and for this reason it is
very important that it should be
washed in a number of cleansing
waters. The slugs and mites, which
r are hardly visible to the naked eye,
cling to the coarse stems and leaves
of the cress. Pick all withered and
yellow leaves from the branches,
.wash in two or three waters, and
then place one teaspoon of salt in
the last water. Let the cress lie in
this water for about five minutes.
Einso well in cold water and then
place on a clean cloth to drain.

My dear Mis. Wilson Will you
kindly publish a iccipe on cook
ing apple sauce? Can it be canned
or jarred and kept fresh for a long
time'.' State if any chemical are
to be used to keep color or taste
and oblige a constant reader,
M. E.
See woman's page August 2f. Do
not use chemicals; they are danger

My dear Mi. Wilson Being a
daily leader ot your column 1
would appreciate your kindness
very much if you would please tell
me how to make orange jelly, not
marmalade, as I have that. Also
how to can string beans, as I have
both on hand and would like to use
as soon as possible. M. C. II.
Orance Jelly
Pare oianges, put the skin through :
I food chopper and measure, to one
quart of finely chopped orange skin i
,',,,, , , t,,
add three quarts of water. Place on
stove and simmer slowly for one and
one-half hours. Add the juice and
pulp of one and one-half dozen or
anges and cook twenty minutes.
Strain and measure juice. Return
juice to preserving kettle and allow
two-thirds cup sugar for each cup
juice, and boil juice ten minutes be
fore adding sugar. Then add sugar,
stir well to dissolve. Bring to boil
and cool; twelve minutes. Pour into
sterilized glasses and seal as other

"My dear Mrs. Wilson Will you
please let me know how much
water to put to two quarts of
elderberries to make jelly, and -if
you should put apples with them
and how many to that amount'.'
m: A. E.
Add one-half cup water for each
quart elderberries, or two cups of
thin apple sauce to each quart of
elderberries. For making jelly of
other fruits see woman's page, June
9, for method of making jelly.
No. 1248.
My dear Mrs. Wilson Enjoy-
j ing many new recipes in the paper,
I take the liberty of asking the
' solution of my problems, which I
, do not understand. In making
jellies what fruit should I use for
pectin? I have luck with jelly-
' making, but in covering it with
! paraffin it oozes out. Also can
j you tell me how to make a dry
bread pudding? It has raisins and
I believe chocolate sauce.
M. 0. It.
' Use apple pectin with, peaches for
i making peach jelly.
The trouble with the paraffin
covering is caused by heating the
, paraffin too hot. Use just sufficient
heat to melt, and then' cover the
I jellies witn it.
See woman's page, July 1 1, for
bread pudding and uses for stale
bread.
Cream Lace in Vogue
('ream lace, so popular a few jears
ago, with octagon mesh and chain stitch
designs, is very popular now, and
dresses composed entirely of bands of i
wide lace will be quite the thing this I
winter. At the recent display of fash-
ions in 1'aris. it is said, the designs in I
lace attracted a great deal of attention.
Lace w.N at its best in the mid-Victorian
period of last century, although in
the preceding centuries fortunes were
spent in obtaining the finest kinds for '
the adornment of the ladies of those
days. Wisps of handkerchiefs of dainty '
lace, lace shawls und parasols and i
dresses indicated the high-born lady.

Vi'i-j novel ikiorations can be made
by pasting crepe flowers and leaves to

not be large and ought to have plenty
of twigs. They are stripped of all
green. Sheets of crepe paper flowers
can be bought all ready to cut out or
the blossoms can be made with pli;in
! crepe paper. Sheets of leaves, too, can
I be had and these are artistically com
I bined with the flowers. Very beautiful
cherry blossom effects can be made in
i this way and the jellow sprays un
lovely too. Arrange them in tall vts's

To Remove Grease

Dear Madam What will remove!
black grease from the inclosed sample I
of pink satin? E. V. R. I
1 tried one of the commercial cleaners
for sale in a drug store on the sample
nnd was successful in removing the ,
black 'grease I smeared on it. Use a
clean pad under the stain in removing
it and work from an outward circle in.
If you draw a circle of French chalk
around the stain before taking it out,
that will prevent it from spreading.
Don't rub too hard or jou will make
the silk rough.

Give Him a Trial
Pear Cynthia I am a girl of nine
teen and a young man now twenty-one
, has been in love with me for five years.
j I. too. have loved him and we have
been engaged, though unannounced, for
t o years. . While at college this past
i winter he grew Indifferent not only to
me but to every one else and told me
frankly that4ic was no longer in love
with me, but respected nnd admired ma
above all other girls. He doesn't know
what's the matter with him, but I
think he Is just sowing his "wild oats."
He wants me to wait for him, as he
feels sure his love for me will come
back. What would you advise me' to
i do- -give him up or stick to him and
do you think he will come out of this
all right? I hope you can print this
soon and want to thank you in advance
for our interested advice.
DOUBTFUL.
i 'I lie joung man will probably get his
i bearings soon ngain. If you love him
it would be well-to give him n trial.
ou arc both young yet. Hut do not
unnnuiiee the engagement, nnd It
would be well to go about with other
1 men nnd girls. Hut if he does not love
i ou nfter waiting a year at the most
t would bo wiser to make the break.
Have More Than One Friend
Dear Cynthia I am a girl of twenty.
About a year ago I met a man twenty
three, and he told me he loved me, and
I cannot tell him truthfully I love him,
though ho treats me nice. I cannot
; treat him the same way. 1 do not
know why 1 went around with him so
l much, because lots of boys that I know
. would have been only too glad to go
around with me. And I think, now
I that I am old enough to get married,
T ought to go around with a man I
I love steady. I have no mother, but I
have a father and he docs not care what I
II do. so, denr C.vnthia, I mil writing
to "" t0
tell me what to do. This
Joung man i
am going around with
wants to marry me ver.v much, and I
sometimes am half inclined to say yes.
So. dear Cynthia, answer my question
as soon as possible, as T know you will
give me the best advice possible.
HAGGARD, i
There is no reason why you should
go about with one man only. Go out
with others, too. Do not marry without
love, dear. Later, perhaps, you may
find thnt you really do care for the
young man you speak of, but unless
you do, do not encourage him.
Wants Sunday School Members
Dear Cynthia In rending over your
column every night I find a good many
things that interest me and that tell
me there are other people who have
troubles, too.
This is the first time that T have
taken the liberty of writing to you, nnd
you have helped so many other clubs by
lielnitig them to select their name. etc..
that 1 am going to ask you to help ours.
T the first place we arc called live
wires, and we have been abiding by
our name along the line of helping
others and trying to get young girls in
tercsted in church. A hat I want to
grt nt Cynthia is: I want to know if
there arc nny young girls around the
age of sixteen or eighteen who, want to
come to Sunday school (Protestant)
and become acquainted with ten very
nice young girls. We want to enlarge
our class, but cannot find the girls,
although every one of us have tried our
best and have succeeded in getting three
new scholars, and I'm sure they are iu-
tercsted in our work already.
I will close now, hoping that some

Comforts "Troubled"
Dear Cynthia Answer to "Trou
bled." I would drop the fellow
entirely; It would make it worth your
while. There is some one looking for
you and some day you will bump into
him. He will not be selfish and sullen;
he will bo willing to sacrifice anything
for you. Cheer up! I'm n few years
older than you and have paid dearly for
my experience, so If I were you I
would walk alone until the right one
comes along. Don't think because I'm
saying nil this I am some "cat." I am
not. I go around everywhere, but I'm
always alone. rNo, I'm not an ugly" old
thing. I'm considered very good look
ing and dress very stylishly. It isn't
that I'm a cat or ugly or hateful. It Is
this: I had to learn, and now that I
know something I enjoy going about
alone in preference to going with some
Belfish, sullen or contemptible young
men and shall 1 say snobbish?
Well, I hope you will take this to
heart and also that you will soon have a
collision with the right one.

but it is the kind that may lead th
poet to sell his poem, Romance.

If the children get chewing gum tan

Taking cold can sometimes be pr.o
vented by breathing deeply when chilly.
The body will soon become much
warmer, because deep breathing sets the
blood to circulating more rapidly.
