While others ' t a are giaaiy purcnasing iuee jjiuuin-m, which are soon to solve the canning r ' problem, the prudent and foreseeing f housewife has hers right on hand. I lave had repeated requests for rne,thods of cooking these foods, and this 'leads mc to believe that if rnor people Understood the success of these various drjed products, it would materially re duce the cost of necessities. Various foods are dried by the means of gently evaporating their watery con tents by warm air. These products,' if packed in either tinor glass or card board containers and then wrapped in wax paper, will keep until used. Mow to Prepare Hydratcd Foods Cover them with water about 100 degrees Fahrenheit and let stand from two to six hours. These foods will only absorb just the actual amount of water that they held when in their fresh state, bo for this reason do not drown them by flooding -with water. The older and tougher vegetables re quire longer soaking than the young, tender product. After freshening the product, cook at once, for these foods sour readily if left in warm rooms too long. How to Freshen Cover two cups of dried apples which had been placed in a, china dish with six and one-half cups of water. Apri cots, nrunes. nlums. cherries, neaches and pears may be used in place of the apples. For raspberries, blackber ries, strawberries, cranberries and huckleberries use two cups of fruit and seven cups of water. For cabbage, turnips, tomatoes, spinach, string beans, carrots, soup vegetables, squash and onions, add nine cups of water to every two cups of vegetables.- To cook bring to a boil and simmer slowly until tender. Let the water evaporate as much as possible. Drain, season and serve. Use bacon or ham fat for seasoning the dried vegetables. This gives them a splendid flavor. Dried peas, beans and lentils also may be included on this list, not forgetting the soy beans and cow peas.

Adventures With a Purse "yOU do not need the adventures to -L tell you that right now a great many shops are having very remarkable sales. Seems that most everything has been reduced. Which leads to the logical conclusion that now is the time to buy shoes, for instance. A shop that is considered rather exclusive and which carries beautiful shoes of all kinds and styles has reduced the entire stock, I think. Beginning with $5.00, there are some lovely pairs, in mostly small sizes. Then right on up the line go the prices SS.00, 50.00, 512.00, wit the price Sic st named having originally been 51. Among them are tan walking shoes, smart pumps, cloth top shoes, and plain black dress shoes. You will find many unusual values. I want to tell you of another shop today, too, that is quite as well known for its neckwear as the one I have just mentioned is for its shoes. Never be fore have I seen such soft, filmv laces and crisp white collars and cuffs. As every wise woman knows, it is the little extra touches, the neck fixings and trimmings that distinguish the woman who is perfectly groomed from her who is reasonably well dressed. It is an old, old shop that has endured for many years, and somehow when you got here to purchase your neckwear vou have a feeling of comfortable assur ance as you enter its doors that you will find something that both is good and looks good. Every woman knows that attractive blue and white Japanese toweling makes useful, pretty and practicable table linen for breakfast and luncheon. Seems as if the more it is washed the snowier and prettier it becomes, and the more effective the contrasting hue. Nor need I point out the advantage of having napkins to match. It remains then but for me to point out where such nap kins are to be found. I've found 'em ! They come in several designs and sizes, and are priced at $1.25 a dozen one of the best values I have seen for borne time. Send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to the Editor of Woman's Page, or call Walnut 3000, for names of shops where articles mentioned in Adventures with a Purse may be purchased. Making Dyes Yellow is the most abundant color in nature, from the first crocus in the earliest spring to the many shades from lemon to orange that light up the fields of the dying year. Pale, clear yellow comes from peach leaves or bark and alum ; hickory bark and alum ; hickory bark, laurel leaves and alum. A wild coreopsis blooming on mountain heights in midsummer yields a very fast and useful yellow. It mixes well with in digo to make green. Of puccoon root, with its deep orange hue, we have al ready spoken. It needs no mordant. Touch-me-not yields a dullish yellow, fast, but not pretty when pure. It is made by using a layer of herb and one of thread, pouring ou the water. Some just let it soak, others boil. Other yel lows are obtained by using wild crab apple bark, or black oak bark, both set with alum. Green in a soft olive is made bv boiling blue yarn with poplar bark. It copperas or alum is added, the green turns to a dull black. A very keen, vivid green is made by boiling" blue yarn with plain hickory bark. Boil hickory bark and strain, then gut in copperas and wool thread for an olive green. Strain and boil again, then rinse. To hickory bark may be added either red or black oak bark and copperas. The same barks can be set with alum soda. Purple is secured from what the natives call "hemlock," but which is really a species of spruce; the addition of copperas producing a purple tone a bit more on the lavender. Sourwood, mountain laurel, sassafras bark, all yield purples. A dull olive green is made by using copperas alone and boil ing the thread until the desired depth of color is obtained. This is a handsome color for any warp. Modern Priscilla. W;1 Jfur&jfHiUinerpdtop M9 Jy 1423 Walnut Street ,$Mfx4 2 1 MILLINERY S1 m J Southern 3l 2L-k Is Now Ready yAM ShjL - JI&'?

If you want to write to him his title will be sufficient address If jou want to find out his name, write to Mr. Hartwell and state your reasons for requesting the name. Better Consult a Dentist To the Editor ol Woman's Pant: Dear Madam : Kindly print in the Woman's Exchange my letter : I have a wisdom tooth that is decaying., I went to a dentist some time ago and had it ground. He put planter ont and I didn't go back to have it fille'd. The thing I wish to know is, if the tooth gets all decayed does the jawbone decay, too? Don't think I can't go to a dentist, but I hate to have it pulled; it's too lato to have it fijledi A READER. The sooner you go back to the dentist the better. You might possibly be able to save the tooth. Your jaw will not decay, but the tooth will cause you a great deal of annoyance nnd perhaps suffering, if you do not have it at tended to. Do not have it pulled un less the dentist says it is necessary, but do by nil means go to (he dentist and find oilt what can be done about it. it. Painting Woodwork To the Editor of Woman's Paao Dear Madam : In the near future we expect to move into a house which, we bought quite some time ago. Now, what I would like to know is, how can I get the wood clean in the in terior of the house? It also is very dark j would like to have it lighter. The wood is supposed to be dark oak. Also can you tell me how to paint a bathroom? The wood in the bath room is also dark oak. I would like to have it all white. Will you kindly tell me what kind of paint to use, also how many coats of paint to put on? (Mrs.) K. C. K. Rub the woodwork in this house with linseed oil and turpentine to clean it. This may lighten the dark oak by re moving the surface dirt, but if you want to stain it a lighter shade, you will have to remove the finish that is on now and put on a new one. This is very tedious, difficult work, and is not nlwa;is done successfully by amateurs, as the stain dries quickly and is aptt be rough and uneven. I think jou will find it more practiral just to clean the woodwork and leave it the same color, or eHc let a painter change it for jou, unless you have done this before. To paint the bathroom woodwork, remove all the paint that is now on it with a patent remover or with washing soda. Then put on two coats of flat white house paint, letting each coat dry thoroughlv. and add finally a coat or two of white enamel. The Question Corner Today's Inquiries 1.

The plaits In tliis shirt give the necessary long lines. The coat is plain black wool jersey with white collar and cuffs. The waist and hat are appropriate ly simple and severe A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose THE idea used to be that there was just one thing to do with stripes and that was to wear them up and down. No one but convicts wore them the other way. But it is different now. In the skirt shown in the sketch to day you'will see what I mean. I have seen several very smart skirts cut in this way with the stripes going round and round, while the necessary up and down alignment was achieved by the plaits. Needless to say the effect is better when the stripes are far upart. In the skirt in the sketch only three of the stripes show below the end of the jacket with which it is worn. And before I say any more I must tell you that this combination of plaid wool skirt and wool jersey coat is extremelv smart. It is, moreover, ex clusive. You see it affected in the morn ing by the very smartly dressed women at the fashionable winter resorts. In the sketch you will see a coat of black jersey with cuffs and collar of white wool jersey, held in trigly at the waist line by means of a white patent leather belt. The plaited skirt with which it is worn is of black and white wool with the stripes going around in the way I have just spoken of. Copyrteht, 1920. by Florence Itos Y. P. A.

A, M. rAs. a general rule mar riage without love is a thing to be avoided. Money may not. always stay and very often God does not bless a marriago with children, and if there is no love to fall back on, where arc you? On the other hand, much in common in pursuits and likings often leads to love. A woman always docs well to bo per fectly honest with the man who honors her with his love. It is wise to tell him that she respects him and will try to learn if he is willing. But she should be perfectly open and aboveboard and should tell him just what she fears and thinks. It would be impossible for me to give you a personal answer, as I do not know cither one'"you speak of, and character has a great deal to do with future hap- pinessv Twenty-four is not old many marry after thirty. The fact that a man is not good-look ing is rather an asset than otherwise. Beauty is only skin deep, remember, and a love founded on respect is better than a passing feeling of attraction. It comes down to this: No one can decide such a question but those most vitally interested. He Is Jealous Dear Cynthia May I ask for your kind and helpful advice after giving you a few details in the matter? The persons concerned are twenty years old. For about two years I have been going with a fine chap whose love for me has been shown in virtually every instance. We expect to announcerour engagement within a few months. Now, dear Cynthia, what puzzles me is this: Wo are both liked very much by nil of our friends and consequently are in vited to many parties. I am popular when we go to parties because I am con sidered a good dancer and, therefore, am much in demand, causing him to be come jealous. Nevertheless, I am with my friend a good part of the evening, but he thinks that I don't give him the attention that he deserves. Once, after a party, he said that he was tired of it. that he knows he is jealous and he doesn't care what I do. He is a broad minded chap, but I can't make him see that I don't do things intentionally to work on his jealousy. However, we talked the matter over and we both de cided to do everything possible to please each other and bo happy. We were getting along very well for a few months until we went to a party and the same thing followed. I know he loves me and yet I fear that we will part when he is in one of these moods. Please under stand, Cynthia, that I love him too much to let our affair come to naught and 1 don't want to think of it because from our many talus togetner we teit sure that our married life would be a happy one. Will you please give me your thought in the matter? I shall appreciate any thing that you will have to say. INNOCENCE. Jealousy is the cause of great un happiness in married life. You should consider the matter very carefully be fore jou take this step. And if you find he cannot overcome this jealousy and you still want to marry him, it will be "up to you" to do nothing to make him jealous.

At the same timo she bad to get the meals for her brother and her boy cousin who lived with them, and she had such a bad cold herself that she could hardly get up in the mornings. She complained about having so much to do one day, and her cousin, who is always teasing her, hurting her feelings and laughing at her, said. "I just think you're awful to kick about that." And it was almost Christmas beforo they spoke to each other again. Silly, wasn't it? There were so many embarrassing times when sho was with a girl and they met herNousin. The other girl naturally spoke to tho boy, and Eileen sailed by with 'her chin In the air. His friends talked to her. and as soon as he joined them her back bad to be turned.
