4KsisterMaty's Okitchen MINT AS GARNISH OR FLAVOR
USE mint in warm weather while it is in season. Asa garnish or flavor its uses are legion. For breakfast a tiny sprig of tender mint in a chilled grapefruit, a glass of orange juice or the half of a cantaloupe adds much to the taste and looks. Sprigs of mint in-ice tea or lemonade make a change that is delightful and refreshing. As to the food value, mint stimulates the appetite and aids digestion. Nearly every old garden has its bed of mint and the markets always handle it. Wash carefully and always strip leaves from the stalk when using as a food. Mint Sauce Three tablespoons minced mint, oneeighth teaspoon salt, two tablespoons sugar, five tablespoons vinegar, two tablespoons water. Wash carefully and strip leaves from stalks. Shake dry in a towel. Mince. Put in a heat-proof bowl and add sugar, salt, vinegar and water. Cover and let stand in a warm place for an hour. This sauce is delicious with roast lamb. Some cooks prefer to serve mint jelly rather than sauce. Mint Jelly Six tablespoons minced mint, onehalf teaspoon salt, three tablespoons sugar, one

LETTER FROM .SYDNEY CARTON TO JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT DEAR JACK: Glad to get your letter. I’m awfully sorry for you, old chap. You are certainly getting your share of trouble. My advice to you, now that you know that Leslie is getting every possible care that could be given her and that it is given with much better methods than you could give it, is to settle down to your work. Do not stay in the sick room too much. It will keep you from thinking about yourself, and help you ot lay up a few dollars for Leslie’s benefit when she recovers, if you turn to your work with a will. Oh, yes. I know that it rather hurts your pride to think that Leslie's father is putting up thousands of dollars to pay for your wife's illness, but it would hurt your heart worse if you had to depend upon your own resources to reimburse the nurses and specialists who are caring for Leslie now. Leslie’s father, of coursq, would not see his daughter want for the slightest thing to make her comfortable and I consider that you are very fortunate in falling in love with a girl whose father has as much money as Leslie’s has. By the way, I have had a letter from Paula Perier. (Hate to inject P. P. into your life just at present). I thought you might perhaps be interested to know that she lr-golhg out to Hollywood to go into pictures. You remember she. always did photograph pretty well and I think she will strike her gait out there. \ She has said nothing to me about the child since that first wire saying one had been born. I haven’t the slightest idea whether it is alive or dead.
Shade and Sun Are Both Necessary to Make Your Camping Site Ideal Place
Boil Water to Be Sure the Supply Is Always Pure,
BY MRS. JANE DEETEK RIPPIN, National Director, Girl Scouts. GIRLS, are you going camping this year? Summer 1> here, and the camping season is on. Here are some tips that will add to your fun and your comfort.
Choosing your camp site is important. See that you have some shady and some sunny land, part flat and part hilly. Six girls may be accommodated in one tent, or you may pitch one large tent for four and a smaller one for two; or make both larger, if there are more campers, or add another ten if necessary.
JANE RIPPIN
The accompanying sketch shows a tent 14x14 feet for four girls, with a covered porch 14x8, and another tent 12x12. In the center is the carrjp fire; under the trees, an outdoor dining table; nearby, a fly covering the stove; in the rear, behind the trees on one side, is a cache for food, and on the other side a drain for waste water, and a wash house. Watch Drinking ater See that the water supply is pure. Have it tested by local health authorities. When in doubt, boll the water. After it has been boijed it will taste flat, because the oxygen has been boiled away. You can bring “life” back to the water by aerating it. Dip out carefully a cup of water and pour it back slowly, giving the oxygen of the air a chance to combine again with the water. Keep this up until the water has been cooled somewhat, and you will find the flat taste has disappeared. Next in Importance to water is camp sanitation. A good drain for waste water can be made by digging a hole in the ground three feet deep and two feet in diameter; then dig a trench one foot deep leading out on one side to a grade. Floors Advisable Fill the hole with stones, larger ones at the bottom and smaller ones on top. Then line the trench with stones. Dish water and all waste water may be poured in. Lime should be sprinkled on%daily, and at least once a week pour in kerosene and burn out the hole; but be careful in the latter case not to set Are to treep or brush. If a camp is to be used for longer than a week board floors are advisable for tents. Set the floor up at least eight inches from the ground, so there will be circulation of air underneath. One side may have to be farther from the ground than the other because the floor must be level. EMBROIDERED SKIRT Embroidery in rich shades, looking as if it had been copied from a Spanish shawl, decorates the full skirt of a smart boi-ffant frock of black crepe de chine. ALL IN GRAY A smart tailored suit of silver gray matelasse is w*orn with gray shoes, a gray georgette turban and a smart silver fox. ' COLORED FACINGS Colored facings are used on some of the most picturesque large hats, and while lace frequently relieves the somberness of the all-black underbill. PLEATED APRON The pleated apron is an addition to almost any frock and is going to be even more popular for fail than it has been for spring and summer.
THE INBLYN APi/LLS TTMEiJ t
Life’s a queer thing, isn’t it, Jack? Here is Leslie who, if what you 7 told me is correct, is slowly dying because her child, bom in respectability and wedlock, was taken away from her, and poor little Paula, who probably did not- want her child, to whom it was a shame and disgrace, is saddled with one. Treat it with as much derision as we may, after all, old chap, it is the woman who pays. Honestly, Jack, I believe if I were a woman T would start out Jo give every man I know as much trouble as possible. I hear you laughing as you read this and I know you are “What an old sentimentalist you are, Syd.’’ Perhaps I am. Jack, and it is because I am that I havb never, felt like inflicting myself upon a woman. I have never seen a man yet who was worthy the least worthy womaji and when I marry’ I want a good woman for my wife. Whenever I find myself falling in love I find myself asking. “What have you got to give a good woman?’’ and I draw back immediately. We ask so much and give so little: we become bored so easily and all the while it never enters our minds that by any possibility we are stupid at times ourselves. There, I’m going to stop writing. It isn’t like me to sermonize, you know that, Jack. Neither do I set myself up in a position as one of those “better than thou" critics, but someway this blooming coincidence of babies has got my goat. Yours, v SYD. NEXT: John Prescott answers Sydney Carton—The tragedy of a lost child.

Engaged couples of long ago will Household Suggestions - Cleaning Cloth A clean piece of old black cotton stocking is excellent for applying a cleaning fluid to dark materials, or for sponging dark wool fabrics. Waxed Floor A waxed floor can be kept in good condition by sweeping it tVith a brush with hair bristles and dusting it with a mop. This gives a soft luster possible by no other treatment. Grass Stains To remove grass stains from flannels, take equal parts of yolk of egg and glycerin, apply to the stains ana let remain for two hours. Then wash the flannels in the usual way. Dampening Clothes Hot water dampens your clothes more evenly than cold when you sprinkle them preparatory to ironing them. Grease Spots Grease spots may be removed from wall paper by covering the spot with clean white blotting paper and rubbing over with a hot iron until the grease is absorbed. As soon as the blotting paper is soiled it should be replaced by anew one. Curtains Always pull a thread and cut by that when you are making curtains. Then they will always hang "true.”

Every Promise Vital on Character Ledger
Upon a promise may rest the fate of nations, or the faith of many people. Yet how lightly we sometimes handle promises. We don’t makei' them intending deliberately to break them, unless we are scoundrels, but we do make them unthinkingly.
The promises which seem unimportant and which we soon forget may not matter as promises. But every promise counts, as a builder of character. No one likes to think that others put little faith in his promises, yet how often a man will disregard his word in an unimportant matter. We must keep faith in little things, if we want to be trusted in big ones. Foolish Promise Dear Miss Lee: I am 19 years old and am going with a girl of 17. She lives 800 miles, from Indianapolis and we correspond regularly. When I left her I promised not to go with other girls as long as we corresponded. Now X may not be handsome, but I am jolly and an all-round comedian and for this reason can make numerous friends. Numerous times the girls hint they want dates and each time I appear as though I don’t catch their meaning, so as to tie faithful to the girl I love. Should I keep up this correspondence, when X don't know when I shall see her, if ever, or take the pleasure thrown at my feet? GENE. Unless you want the girl to lose faith in you altogether, don’t break your promise. However, you can ask her to release you from it, and, of course, she would not refuse. Both of you are too young to be bound by such a'promise, but there is no reason why your friendship and your correspondence should not continue. Sunday Wedding . Dear Martha Lee: 1. At what time on Sunday afternoon would it be best to have a church wedding? 2 If the groom wears a plain blue suit, would it be more proper for the bride to wear a veil, a hat or just a wreath of orange blossoms, if she wears a white dress? 3. How many bridesmaids w.*uld it be best to have at a weddnig of this sort? Would three ushers be too many? 4. If the bride s father is dead .who should issue the invitations? 5. Is It proper for the groom's father to act as best man? A BRIDE-TO-BE. 1. I should suggest a late hour, about 4 or 5 o’clock. 2. For an afternoon wedding, especially a formal wedding, the correct costume for the groom is what is known as a “morning suit”: Pearl gray striped trousers, black English frock coat, black patent leather pumps, dark vest, high collar, "stock” or black bow tie and high or derby hat. A bride at a large church wedding usually wears a veil. 3. For a large wedding the bride may have as many bridesmaids as she pleases. Three ushers would not be too many. 4. Her mother, a sister, an aunt or some other near relative. 5. Yes. Chaperon Needed Dear Miss Lee: I am 20 years old and keeping steady company with a man of 24. He wishes me to meet his folks, in another State. It Is a one-night trip. He wants me to make the trip with him. Is it not proper for us to have an escort, or are we old enough to go alone? KNOWLEDGE. You are old enough to take care of yourself, but you would expose yourself to unpleasant gossip if you made this trip without a chaperon. BLONDE: Please send me a stamped, self-addressed envelope for a personal reply. Repeat your story and questions. Rather ‘Speedy’ Dear Miss Lee: lam a boy of 18 and have been going with a girl of the same age. She seems to be very fond of petting parties and becomes very angry because I will not kiss her Is there any way I can break her of this habit? I never have kissed her. but she says that if I would try it once I would like It Would you advise me to try it? She tells me that if I don't become educated
■Martha Lee Says-
in the modern ways of ‘Toying” she will quit me. I should like to hold her friendship and perhaps, some day, to love her. but she seems a bit too speedy for me. CALVERT. I should say she Is “speedy!” She may think she Is having a good time, but she Is preparing herself for some hard times, when she will find plenty of men willing to “pet” her, but none to love 'her sincerely. Better leave her alone until she gets a bit less "loving”—and let her know why. Would ‘Vamp’ Him Dear Miss Lee: lam a girl of 16. I recently met a boy whom I adoro very much. He seems to like another girl better than he likes me. This girl is a vary good friend of mine and I do rot wish to causa any hard feelings. Shall I give him up for the other girl, who does not care for him? Please tell me how to win his love. ROBIN. Don’t try to win his love, Robin. Instead, k-iep his friendship and that of your girl friend. You would be foolish to bother jtbout love for a few more years. Misses Parties Dear Miss Lee: I have Just graduated from high school and, as you no doubt know, I shall be deprived of many of the friends, parties and dances which help to enliven school life. While in school, I went to at least three parties a month, and. strange as it may seem. I- was ased to go by my girl friends. I certainly did feel sorry for those fellows who had “steadies.” But now everything is different. I don't go out so much. Would you advise me to take a girl out on Sunday evening in place of going out with fellows? Where could a fellow take a girl this summer season? I am 19. HANDICAP. You might take girls out once In a while, but It is not necessary to confine yourself to one girl. There are not a great many peaces to go, I'll admit. Os course, there are shows, and the plays at the municipal outdoor theaters. And some girls don’t mind ah. evening at home, with an entertaining companion. With several other couples, often you can have as enjoyable a time that way as any other. Green Peas With Carrots By BERTHA E. SHAPLEIGH Os Columbia University RUB two cups cooked peas, canned or fresh, through a sieve, so that only the skins are left. That will give about one cup of the pulps or puree. Add one-half teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper, three tablespoons melted butter and two eggs slightly beaten. Bake in buttered custard cups or timbale molds, or in one dish, having dish or molds set in a pan of water. When a pointed knife, inserted in the center of the custard, comes out without any of it adhering, the timbales are done. Remove from oven, loosen each around edge of mold and invert on hot plates or platter. Remove molds and pour around the timbales /a cream sauce and cooked carrots. If large cups are used the recipe will make three. If small timbale molds holding one-third cup of material are used, one can get five. One cup of sauce and one cup of carrot cubes will be sufficient. Or the carrots, if new and small, may be left whole.
