Blackberry Pie. VARIETY OF RICE DISIIES There are many ways of servinp rice. Instead of serving: it plairras a fepetabla it may be stewed with tomatoes, cooked in a double boiler with tomato juice, soup stock or miik, or it may be seasoned with curry powder, onions or other seasoning materials. By usinjr skim milk in this way a particularly economical dish is produced. As a cereal for breakfast, rice may be boiled in milk and sweetened, or eaten with butter and salt. If it is desired, dried fruits such as dates or raisins may be cooked with the rice. Cold boiled rice, mixed with pancake or mulBn batters of wheat, buckwheat or corn meal, makes a pleasing addition to such food products, reduces the quantities of other ingredients needed, and furnishes a method for using the left-over cereal. - Cold boiled rice also may be used with or without a little meat, chicken, or seasoning vegetable for croquettes. Its use in puddings is universally familiar. One thing is lacking in the rice usually purchased the minerals contained in the outer husks which have been taken away in the process of polishing. The so-called "brown rice" has not suffered this loss, but

to Many people it is an unattractive dish and therefore seldom used. Polished rice can be supplemented by plenty of fruits and vegetables which contain the mineral substances needed for complete bodily health. TASTY SANDWICHES. Pepper Sandwiches Four green peppers one lemon, one teaspoon finely chopped onion, two tablespoons boiled salad dressing, four walnuts, four chopped olives, two tablespoons salad oil, one-quarter teaspoon salt, one large cream cheese. Seed the peppers and put through food chopper. Cover with the juice of the lemon and let stand one hour. Drain, add one teaspoon onion put through chopper, two tablespoons of boiled salad dressing, two tablespoons salad oil, one-half teaspoon salt, one large cream cheese, meats cf four walnuts and four olives, put through the food chopper. Mix together well. This makes enough filling for one sandwich loaf. Hot Cheese Sandwiches Hot cheese sandwiches arc made by spreading both Fides of thinly sliced white bread with butter. Betweeen two lices put thinly sliced or grated cheese. Place in hot oven, brown quickly, turn over and brown. Serve at once.

SETTING COLORS The safest wav to set colors is to do so before washing. For browns, blacks and pinks, use one cup salt to one-half gallon water. Soak goods in this mixture for a few hours. For .blues, use one-half cup vinegar to every gallon of water. Soak a few hours. For lavender, use one tablespoon sugar of lead to one gallon of water. Soak the goods for a few hours. Using the proper "fixer" for th proper color will give excellent results.

If she does not the older women scold her until she does. Miss Jane Gregory, daughter of former Attorney General Gregory who has pledged herself to support three Belgian war orphans, has been awarded the Order of Queen Elizabeth. Women employed in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing In Washington claim that they are doing skilled and semi-skilled work for less wages than those paid unskilled male laborers. Both France and England were forced to confer military rank on the women in the medical service when the shortage of men physicians made It necessary to call large numbers of women Into the service. Disposition of world-famous wine vineyards near Rheims, France, hinges on an application to the United States Senate by Mrs. Frances Scovl'.le Munn, a former lansas girl for reinstatement as an American citizen.

tut when he found that it did no good he stopped It and adopted the rest cure Instead, and began to get results. He points out that It is not enough to tell patients to rest, aa If he understood how it ehould be carried out. Many physicians, he finds, do not understand the minutiae of the rest treatment. Pottenger holds that every patient with tuberculosis must be put to bed and kept there as long as there Is any question of actlvo tuberculosis. Only whon the disease process in the lung has become quiescent may the patient safely begin to take minute doses of exercise. Exercise acts like a dose of tuborculin of a fresh onslaught of tubercle bacilli on the blood there Is a certain reaction. If the conditions and the dose are right, and this reaction distinctly helps the patient In his fight. Pottenger permits the patient, with the dlseass "ct-ss arrested, to begin to take exercise by sitting up for five minute- to ten minutes at a time. Increasing to twenty minutes or half an hour, ejid finally to periods as long as three hours. When the patient can sit up three hours without tiring and without any Indication of fatigue as determined by the physician's observation or examination, then the patient Is permitted to begin walking, at first not more than fifty to one hundred feet a day, and gradually farther. This graduated dose of exercise eventually brings the patient tc the point where he can walk from two to ten miles a day without getting tired, without any lrrd'atlon of toxemia, and Mental res.t, as well as physical rest, is a feature which must be assured ths patient. This naturally proscribes visits by those pests wh come to tell of sure cures or great doctors they have heard of. to reflect upon tho moda of treatment, the nursing, or whatnot. It is strange, but almost thirty per cent of us belonj to that class. To determine the proper dose of rest, and of exercise If exercise is safe at ail, is one of the technical points most difficult for the physician In the managemertt of tuberculosis. For a patient or his friends to attempt to decide these vital matters Is fool-hardy, although quite the conventional thing and a common caus of failure.

REST CURE FOR TBC.

It consumes twenty-five per cent mere energy to sit at rest in a chair than It does to rest in bed. This twenty-five per cent of energy is worth saving in a great many illnesses, although it is difficult to make some patients conserve energy in this way when they feel able io be up and about. Sitting up and conversing with friends or visitors consumes forty-five per cent more energy than is consumed by the same individual lying at rest. Dr. F. M. Fottenger of California states that he has tried the exercise plan In the treatment of tuberculosis.

BEAUTY CHATS The difference between a pretty girl and a homely one Is often less than a degree. Tou had better be chinless, and xqulsitely groomed, than possessed of the features of Helen of Troy, and carelessly turned out. Now this is a principle I am try'ln? hard to impress on my younger readers especially for the older ones probably already know it. Nature provided you with eyes, nose, mouth and a profile, and it Is a hard matter to change the shape and size of any of them If you've tried it, you know. But Nature has nothing to do with the sort of clothes you pick out, thj colors you wear, or the way you do your hair. Those things are matters of individual Judgment. So this is a warning. First, find out your virtues, then your faults, and dress

yourself so as to bring out the one and hide the other. Try any number of different ways of doing your hair, for this Is very important. Few people can stand a severe style, and an extreme style is always bad taste. Next in importance to dressing the hair comes choosing the colors of your clothes. Generally, the shade of your eyes and a shade or two .darker is best, as it accentuates the eye. deepens Its colors and consequently, makes It seem larger and more beautiful. Third In Importance Is getting the proper "lines" on your clothes but a
