FAST TO BE BEAUTIFUL.

How to Lose That Listless, Sleepy, Logy Appearance. A good deal has been said in the past few yesrt a boot Tasting. Soiffe people are for it and others against it, but after sifting the wheat from the chaff we find that fasting is of immense benefit in certain cases if it is not carried' to extremes. When you are listless, sleepy and logy it might well be that a day’s fast would be the means of waking yon up both physically and mentally. Usually* the sleepy Woman, who feels as if she could not move a finger. Is the victim of overeating. It sounds unromantic, and it is nnromantic. but what else could 1 say? Facts are facts, you know. When our friend the dog has overeaten be has sense enough to refuse all proffered food until he is himself again.' Surely a human being ought to possess as much discretion as a dog. Next time you overtax your stomach and tb’e eliminative organs fast and drink quantities of fresh cool water. Moderate fasting is a good thing in those cases where the abdomen is very much enlarged. This is a hint that a great many women should take advantage of. Next time you run up to your room stand in front of the glass and eye yourself critically. Then, still gazing intently at your mirrored reflection, turn slowly until you obtain a side view of your figure. If what you see does not please you it might be well to fast for twenty-four hours several times a month. Be careful, however, not to shock your system unduly. For fear of this begin by a semi-fast, especially if you are a woman of “uncertain age.” —-

Snow fell in Los Angeles Wednesday for the first time in many years.

James Horn, 42 years old, was sentenced to go to chureh every Sunday for the next three years bv MunMpal Judge Hopkins in the South Clark street court, Chicago, Wednesday. Horn was arrested when he stole two pairs of shoes. When Edward Ehrns was arrested at Lawrenceburg for taking S2O from Albert Smillies, officers were puzzled as to his disposition of the money. They finally discovered that he had rolled the bills in a cigarette paper and was holding, unlighted, in his mouth. >- Doan’s Regulets are recommended by many who say they operate easily, without griping and without bad after effects. 25c at all drug stores.

Notes and Comment

Of Interest to Women Readers

DRYING VEGETABLES. How the Thrifty Housewife May Bave Expense of Buying Jars. To have many home-canned vegetables for winter use, the expense of buying glass jars 1b quite a tax on the pocketbook, but the young housekeeper who needs all her jars for fruit may dry many of her vegetables and some of the small fruits with excellent results. Green shell beans, if shelled and dried quickly by the stove or in a sunny place, are equal to the canned OTOl:'; TJlfianrgans after being dried in this way. Corn should be boiled just enpugh to thicken the milk, and then shaved from the cob and dried. It should be spread out thinly or it will sour before sufficiently dried. If one dries hut a small quantity at a time, they can be spread upon plates and dried, but if more are to be prepared a home-made evaporator is very convenient to have. The diagram

shows plainly the construction, and of course it can be made any size. The four upright pieces should each have a wire nail driven part way Into the bottom to protect the wood from direct contact with the stove. The trays have a simple frame-work of wood, and are covered with wire netting or thin cheese-cloth. These rest upon the cleats which hold the uprights together. There may be as many trays as one chooses. In using this evaporator dp not place over a hot part of, the stove, for the object is to dry, not to cook. Vegetables or fruit dried in this way must be soaked In cold water over night.—Kathleen Abbott

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

A bit of rhubarb rubbed on the hands will remove the stains. Eat plenty of dandelion greens. They are a fine tonic. A few drops of ammonia on a dry cloth will clean the rubber rollers of your wash wringer. A A large glass bottle is the best receptacle for vinegar. Handkerchiefs ironed in the middle first are not so apt to pucker. Slowly sip a glass of pure warm milk just before you go to bed and you will have a peaceful sleep. A toy washboard will do nicely for washing ribbons and laces. As a substitute for oyster crackers, toast slices of bread and cut in squares.. To keep ostrich plumes during the summer, place to a glass jar and screw WTfie top. This” will keep them dry and away from moths.

How to Make Good Starch.

It is an art to make good starch. To make thick starch use eight times as much water as starch and a quarter teaspoonful of lard, borax or spermaceti to one quart of water. Salt may also be added. These ar. put In when the starch begins cooking. Bluing Is added when reaCy to use. Thin starch has twice as much water as thick starch. If one wishes to thin starch already made, use hot water. Starch that is thoroughly cooked will not stick. Partly cooked, it is milky; when done it is clear. Make a smooth paste with cold water; thin by as much more cold water. Add boiling water, stirring fast. If the paste lumps, stop adding hot water and beat the lumps out Cook over the flame when all the water has been added. After five minutes, finish cooking over water. Keep covered and hot till ready to use.
