S. WILSON TALKS ABOUT
KEEPING FOOD IN SUMMER
,-,.
i' 'And, Gives Soma Timely Suggestions for Using Leftovers in
,', .Tasty, Wholesome Dishes
.'-rf By Bins. M. A. WILSON
fopvrioht. If M. fcy Mrs, .V. A. Wllion. All
riohta rcamied.)
TTIOODS tlint nre rich In protein or
nre of a nitrogenous chnrncter nre
vcy prowv.to quick decomposition dur
ing the summer. This produces n
poison which Is extremely dangerous to
the humnn body.
"Tho ptomaine poison cerm will quickly
'"develop in n wnrm, moist icmpcrnuin-.
TAei Mit mnutn It la verv tmnnrtnnt
'' tlmlnll meats, fish, ckks nnd milk be
" 'kept in a cool plnco. Tho food need not
bo' spoiled or decayed to develop this
germ.
Examine tho meat carefully to make
dure- that the Intrudlnc files have de
posited no eggs; wipe nil meats with n
clean, damp cloth which has been wrung
from n mixture of equal parts of vine
gar nnd water or nib the meat with the
'cut surface of a lemon.
If you desire to keep the meat two
or thrco days it should be hung in the
Icebox, A handy man about the house
can make n little rack or tripod U fit
thocompartment under the ice cham
ber in tho refrigerator. Use hooks
made of heavy wire to hang the moats
and thus prevent the escape of the
juices, as the chilled air In the icebox
caiises tho surface of the meat to be
como dry nnd thus seal tho juices in
tho meats.
In lamb or mutton the thin membrane
thnt. Is next to he skin slioukl dp re
'mVwl, as this decays quickly nnd will
taint the meat. Never, never
place meat in the Icebox wrapped in
the paper in which it came from the
store!
Sfever lay fish or meats directly upon
he Ice. Use noue but strictly fresh
vegetables. Asparagus, peas, beans and
com spoil very quickly. Fnilta nnd
berries require a cool storage place.
Spread the. berries In n single layer to
prevent spoiling.
Never place warm food in the Ice
box. Set It aside until It is thoroughly
tooled. Do not mix hot and cold foods
and. above all. do not put food In the
refrigerator without ice.
It Is poor economy to attempt to
economize on ice. The Ico chamber
needs to bo filled daily. Do not wrap
the Ice In paper or clothi; remember
that the object is to keep the box thor
oughly chilled, and not to conserve
Select dishes that fit comfortably in
the refrigerator and keep them for this
purpose alone. Wipe the bos out daily
with a cloth which has been wrung from
warm borax water. Do not permit the
leftovers to necumulnte and then spoil ;
this 'brings undesirable bacteria in con
tact with the other loou.

Cover the milk bottles with jelly

be placed in bowls and then covered.
The ordinary fruit jars will be found
to be handy for -torlug many foods and

salng that thero are no more real boys

and none of them ever attempt to tie any
thing but nice, respectful comrades, it
nil denends upon tho valuo which nn
places on one's self. That makes mo

besides tho expression of your good

She's Glad She Married Him
Dear Cynthia "One Who Knows"
may thltrtt she know what she was talk
ing about; but all Italian" arc not the
same. I am an American girl and mar
ried an Italian man eight years ngo, and
I would do the same thins over tomor
row. I have a very nice home nnd five
lovely children and we also belong to n
bulldlnir and loan association I nm
very happy. I have nothing to worry
ibout and thnt'rf saying a lot thfse days
It Is a mistaken Idea that Italian men
want to keep their wives tied down ;
they like them to live so no one can nay
nnythlng about them. They are per
fectly willing for them to go out, but
they want to know where they are going
and who they nre going with They are
great savers, nnd every one's ambition
Is to own his own home, nnd thev don't
live any cheaper than the average
American family either. It tnst no
much to make macaronies as it does to
make American meals. I can cook both
nnd do.
I don't think, after all, It Is the na
tionality that counts, there are pood and
bad In evcrv country, t think, though,
it would be much better if some
American husbands w-pre n. llttio mnro
strict. I had lots- of American friends,
hut I nm still glad I married the Italian
one. FLOItENCn.

Yes, dear Working Girl, you're right
about men and bovs staring at a young
girl when she's out late alone I am

! 10 have them come and meet me after
work to take me home If men and
bovs nnlv knew how tired we are after
our hard day s work they wouldn't think
to stare at us or make remarks. One
farly morninu when I wns waiting for
the trollev car there wero two young
men stnndlng back of me, and I heard
one of them say to the other' "This Rlrl
nuift have been to some dance or a
partv. but It's funnv she's out alone." I
didn't pav anv attention to what they
were saying nbout me. I Just let on I
didn't hear them nnd when I came home
I crkd It made me feel so bad Nowa
days young men seem to Judge all of us
elrls the same as thev tnke good f6r
bad ones and bad for Rood.
ONLY ANOTHRn WORKING GIP.L.
She Does Not Dance
Pear Cynthia I nm an Amerlesn Rlrl
nf eighteen summers and would like
some advice from you.
I do not go out very mucn, and mere
fore do not dance I have a girl friend
who calls me an old maid for that
renson
I do not caie for d.inclng and think
It Is more like work ai you get tired
after danclnc for a while
Now, what I want 10 know Is this
no you think a clrl of my ngo must
know how to dance nnd go out with
voting men In order that she may not bo
railed an old maid' I believe I have
plenty of time for all of that
ONE WHO DORSN'T DANCE,
One could scarcely bo an old maid nt
eighteen, literally, but If you are too
prim and propor, you will likely be
called one
When one dances properly It seldom
tires and Is excellent exerc.se".

A LAMP FROM
The approach of Independence Day
brings war to our recollection, nnd our
thoughts turn back to this day two years
ago, when our men were fighting in
France. That thought carries us up to
those shells that almost every ooy,
home from Frnnce. brought with him
as souvenirs. Whnt in the world shall
we do with thero? Ilorc h a sugges
tion: The lamp illustrated wns made from
n shell casing fourteen inches high nnd
three or four inches in diameter. Figure
1 shows the shell cnslng ns it is found
on the battlefield, nnd tlie finished lamp
gives an idea of how it was transformed
by hammering the metal into an nrtistic
design to form the base of the lamp.
In these tho when metnl crafts are
taught in our schools there is sure to
be n boy or girl in Hie family who can
hammer an attractive design on tho
sides of the shell, or you may take the
shell to a metal worker nnd have tho
design wrought.
When the design hns been hammered
Into the shell It is ready for wiring into

mndo nenr thc'bnse of the shell to per
mit the electric light cord to pass up
Inside tho lump. Ono end of the cord
should be fitted with a plug nttachment
for connecting tho lamp to a socket.
Pass the free end of the cord up Inside
of the lamp through tho hole In the bot
tom and bring It up to the top or mouth
of the shell. An ordinary electric light
wall fixture nnd bulb nre needed for the
top of the lamp. These wall fixtures
come in many sizes, nnd no trouble will
be found in getting one to fit snugly
over the mouth of the shell. There are
two screws Inside nt the bnse of the
wnll fixture, nnd these must be con
nected with two corresponding wires
found In the cord, ns the end Is brought
up through tho shell. I'nfasten the
screws, wrnp tho corresponding wire
around each, and screw them hack in

from tho base of the lamp, nnd fit the

of tho shell. Tho lnmp is complete ex

wire frame fitted to the bulb.
bara where he had been that night.
Having decided in his own mind that
it would do no nrood to tell her about
theso friends of his, ho ceased thinking
nbout it. Of courso ho had no Idea that
sho might be curious at tils failure to
say anything nbout It. and his con-
sclenco was too clear to make him feel
in tno least guilty.
That Barbara was curious was true.
She thought a great deal about It. but
her life kept her so busy and took up
so much of her llmo that the worry was
for the most part subconscious. She
would havo thought nothing of It. If
Keith had said he was going to the club,
or If he had made any of tho other ex
cuses that men make when they don't
wish to return home. It was his curloUR
failure to say anything about his engage
ment uerorc orvartcrward that puzzled
Barbara. Thero seemed to be a con
bcIous effort on his part not to allude
to that evening, and yet she could not
bo sure that this was so. It was all
very vague In her own mind.

D
TD you ever wnlk through
the I
household improvements and ronveni
ences in two minutes than you could
learn nny other way in two weeks. Now
for instance, todaj T came aerosR the
sink strainer". It is not necessary for
me to sny thnt it is not only unhenlth
ful, but mighty unhnndy ns well to
have the kitchen sink gej. stopped up.
And yet it is easily possible, unless one
has n sink strnlnrr, which costs the
modest sum of ten rents. It fits over
the drain, hns tiny holes through which
no hnrd sub-tance can pcrcolnte and
should menu real comfort.
Then there k the rubber strainer nnd
"splash bWhr" thnt tits right over
the anient. You have no doubt had the

of water nnd having it splnsh nil over
the Iloor. to snv nothing of your own
skirt. This contraption, then, fits over
the spigot, ns I have said, nnd re
strains the wnter to n steady, even
strenm. Incidentally, being rubber it
tnkes away the hnrd quality of thnt
spigot nnd prevents your breaking dishes
when you accidentally knock them
against it. The price of this is also 10
cents.

With a Purse
hnve heard of the picnic spoons, nnd
huvo had in mind toning you nunut

only twenty-five rents and they save n
lot of work. One uses them nt picnics
nnd for Informal picnic lunches, throw

thus doing nwny with the necessity for

HOW ARE YOh r
ft
V
THIS FOURTH OF JULY?
. (
There Are Some People Who Dread This Day Because They
) Remember Wltal Happened on Other Pourtlis That
Were Not Safe and Sane ,
IT WAS the day before the Fourth of
July and Jock wns sitting on the
norrh' hnlf nsleen." lazily watching
Ills tongue began to water as he sus
pected candy, and Johnny came closer
to tho porrh. Johnny took his hnnd
out of the bag, held It high nnd mnde
n sudden movement. There wnn n ter
rific bang nnd Jock, scared wide awake,
Jumped tn his feet nervously, lie barked
ns Johnny held out the hag toward
him. nnd (Jhcn put his hnnd In ngnin.
Jock's enrs wentbnek. his tnll drooped
between his legs nnd he crept silently
nwny to hide under the bed for the next
two days.
Oh, how he drends this dny. Iso
mnttcr how fnr hcburrows tinder n bed
or into n closet, he enn still henr the
terrifying bnngs thnt ore so sudden nnd
sharp. Ills sensitive nose realizes the
annoying scent of powder thnt fills thfl
nir. no mnttcr how sound nsleep he mnn-
nges to get. Somehow these people thnt
nre so kind to him seem to lose nil
heart on this one dav of nil the year.
He tries to make them love him nnd
see how his feelings nr,e hurt, but they
won't do nnvthlne but stick red things
at him nnd tell him they won't go off.
Oh. It's n terrible day for him I
There's n Uttlo girl down the street
who knows how he feels, though. She
dreads this day, too. There's n scar
just below her eye thnt will niwnys
be there. She Isn't old enough yet to
be very sensitive nbout that brown,
rough pntch of skin, but when the
Fourth of July comes nlonz she's very
conscious of It. For one yenr ou the
Fourth she plnyed with sparklers. They
were perfectly harmless, she was told.
and Bhe waved them about and gloried
in the flying sparks that sho could touch
with her hand without being burned.
Then, toward the end of the day,
when she was nil dressed for supper in
n ruffled white dress nnd a pink hnlr
ribbon, sho felt tired nnd sleepy. She
waved her spnrkler nbout until It burned
down to the end. Her hand drooped
and she let the sparkler drop wearily
down toward her shoulder. The red
hot core wns still nlive nnd .the big
bow of pink on the carefully arranged
curls flamed up in n second. She con
still remember the insistent, tinging
burn thnt cnused thnt brownish, rough
place on her smooth check. Yes, she
knows how Jock feels today. She
dreads It, too.
TIIFHK'S n mother who nppronches
Fourth of July with dread. She re
members a Fourth when there wns n
little boy running excitedly nbout shout
ing orders to his "men" nnd advancing
fcnrlessly on mud forts. She enn still
sec thnt happy little figure kneeling
down to fix n firecracker in the toy enn
nnn. She rnn hear tho delighted cry
with which ho greeted each bang that
enrried nwny n part of the "enemy's"
stronghold. But there's another pic
ture that blots this out, uo matter how
