CANNING WITHOUT SU'GAR. The United SUtes Food Administration is asking everyone to buy or household use no more sugar than Is absolutely necessary. This is asked In order that there will be some for canning. But fruits should be canned without sugar if possible. Here are some suggestions. Make Fruit Leather. Mash ripe fruit (berries, cherries, figs, apricots, peaches and blue plums may be used) to a pulp, spread on lightly oiled platters and dry in sun or dryer. When dry, sprinkle with sugar, and pack away In jars or very tight boxes lined with wax paper. Peaches or half and half peaches and figs make delicious leather and need only a sprinkling of sugar. Serve this leather In winter instead of candy or with cream cheese and nuts for dessert. Fruit leather may be soaked in water and used for pies, shortcakes, puddings, and sauces.
When intended for this purpose omit I
the sugar. Bottle fruit juice without sugar and save it for jelly until sugar is more plentiful. Many fruits can be dried. This will save sugar. Some fruits can be stored, such as apples or winter pears.
Chicken and Nut Salad This may furnish the main course for a dinner.
One of the cans of boned chicken, cost
ing forty cents, will serve four persons generously. Remove the contents of the can, rince in cold water and chill; then cut in dice; do not chop Have ready crisp celery, cut in dice measuring about one and one-half times the amount of chicken. Add one tablespoonful of chopped walnuts, two chopped hard-boiled eggs and six stuffed olives, chopped. Sprinkle very lightly with salt, blend a mayonnaise dressing and serve, heaped on a salad platter. Mask with a little additional dressing and garnish with slices of hard-boiled eggs, capers and bits of pickled beet. Minted Chicken Salad One package gelatin, mint flavor, one pint stock, nnA run cold cooked chicken, diced.
one-quarter cup cold cooked carrots
cut in slivers, one-quarter cup cookea peas, one cup curled celery, one scant run rt RtHTlv whlnned cream, measur
ed after whipping; one large head of

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am nineteen years old and married. My husband is a soldier. I lost my baby several months ago. Today a girl that I supposed was a friend (at least more than an acquaintance) told me that she and almost everyone else who knew me thought me heartless and almost inhuman. When I asked the reason why she explained that it was because I had failed to discuss the subject of my baby and was able to laugh and go on with life and never cried and because apparently I worried more about my husband than my baby. Do you think that the things . she says are true? That sensible people could believe anything of the sort? God knows that I surely wanted the baby and the suffering I went through when it was born dead. It isn't the easiest thing in the world to have things of that sort turn out wrong. Do you think the fact that I fail to cry before people and don't care to explain my feelings for their benefit and go on as if nothing had happened should give them the impression that I am "heartless and inhuman?" Perhaps I do cry when I am alone and
then again perhaps I don't. Why should my feelings be dragged out and dissected by my friends? Why shouldn't I be anxious about my husband's welfare? Why should I be Judged wrongly because I do not cry conetantly or wear mourning? I
couldn't afford to buy a mourning outfit even if I so desired. Do you think that other people do hold that opinion or that she dislikes me and was simply using that method to hurt me? If the latter be the case she should rest assured that she succeeded in doing so. SIS HOPKINS. There are people who glory in the tragedies of others. If the person who has had her trouble does not show it publicly there is naturally disappointment. Youth does not carry trouble long; spirits rebound quickly from the greatest suffering. It is only natural that you should be happy most of the time and especially when you are in the company of others where you would not feel inclined to give way to grief. Be natural and do not pose just because certain people would like to have you. It is far more honest to allow yourself to be happy than to force a solemn face when you do not feel it. In mv mind mournine does
an injustice to the deceased because it prolongs unpleasant and sad conditions. Perhaps other people do thing as your friend does, but you should not care. Those who have known suffering and have mastered it instead of being mastered by it will understand you. and it is their opinion that is worth while. Your friend lacks understanding and sensitiveness. I do not believe she hurt you intentionally.

BAKER WILL ASIC MODIFICATION OF AGES F0R DRAFT Plans Include Larger Army and Possible Lowering of Draft Ages. WASHINGTON, July 24. Secretary Baker announced Tuesday that on the reconvening of Congress he would present with his request for new appropriations, plans for modifications of the draft age and a "somewhat larger military mobilization." The plan concerns the mobilization of a huge American army probably upward of 5,030,000 men. Xo announcement was made as to whether the draft ages are to be lowered or raised, but it is known that the prevailing judgment of the Secretary's advisors is to lower them. The progress of the Franco-American offensive continues "entirely satisfactory," Secretary Baker said. The War Department, he added, has nothing from Generals Pershing or Biisa later than the news dispatches. "We are taking more and more territory every day, and the progress made is entirely satisfactory," said be.
SEEKS PARTITION OF LAND.
The battle line in the Soissons, Chateau-Thierry, Rheims salient. Continuance of the great counter offensive started by the French and American troops in the Soissons-Rheims sector leaves the Germans wit happarently only two courses. One of these, which appears impossible, is to drive the a Hies back to the original line in the sector, and the other is to retreat and give up the entire salient The above map shows the important moves in the counter drive. The dotted line at the left indicates the battle line between Soissons and ChatauThierry at the beginning of the great allied drive July 18. The solid line before it and which extends around to Rheims, indicates the battle line at the end of the first day of the drive. The dash line to which the arrows at the left point indicates the present battle line in the Soissons-Chateau-Thierry sector. The territory between the dotted lin and this dash line, indicated by (1), is the territory gained there. Figure 2 indicates where th allies are pushing the 'Germans back and forcing them to relinquish what little hold they still have on the Marne in this salient. The jagged line below the figure 2 indicates the greatest gain of the Germans in their fifth drive. Activity of the British and Italian forces near Rheims is indicated by figure 3.

THE HOPE CURE Stephen lay in a half stupor for a day or two. But on the third day Dr. Rolf got the fever under control, and Sally armed with her gayest smile, began her work of reconstruction. It was nearing Easter time, and she kept in the pockets of her apron a batch of the gifts she was making, so that whenever a few moments of leisure came she could fill them up with sew-

her fingers. "What I need most is an intelligent aide who will obey orders and help me get up my Easter-Christ-mas-Sunday-birthday-Thanksgiving celebration. Won't you help me, Steve?" It was as if some one had switched on a light behind Stephen's eyes! So she turned to Mm for the helping hand! To him, first of all. It may have been a childish thought, but such men are children, and it warmed Steve Torrance with a happy glow the first emotion he had felt for days. He was a child who had had "moral suasion" applied; a child who had been appealed, and promised something. Promised something? No, not exactly that, but something like. His tired mind

He still didn't answer, having slipped !
again into the deadly lethargy wnicn must be fought back to keep him alive. "Oh, Stephen, won't you help me make Easter really a holiday?" Sally spoke with a vehemence not wholly feigned. It roused him just a little, it's a mighty hard time for all of us." she went on. "If we aren't gay we just won't live through it, that's all." "What does it matter?" "Oh. Steve, it does matter! Miracles happen on Easter the spring! Let's believe in them.and help them to happen. It's the season of hope resurrection new life!" "Eh?" He looked up, his eyes kindling faintly. Sally pushed her advantage. "Yes." she nodded gravely into his face, "all sorts of miracles." He roused still more. "Sally what do you mean?" "Just what I say that all of us change constantly. Events change us. Thoughts change us. Seasons, like Faster, stir us to new feelings. Look at both of us. .What I was a year ago: what I am today. What you were and what you are. We are chameleons. I tell you. Steve. Who knows
what we 6hall be when this soul-shak-
anything or not. But into his dulled
senses something hopeful had certainly come. He put out a groping hand, smiling again with a wan eagerness that twinged Sally's heart, a little guiltily. "You can count on me," he said, his fingers closing round hers. "You're right; Easter ought to be gay. We'll be gay. And we'll hope. That's enough to get well on!" To be continued.
Cuban Espionage Bill Signed by President (By Associated Press i HAVANA, July 24. The Cuban espionage bill, which President Menocal was reported to have vetoed Sunday because it required him to restore the constitutional guarantees before it became a law, was signed by him today. The act of the president came as a surprise because while he was thoroughly in sympathy with the bill, with the exception of the one article regarding constitutional guarantees, it was thought that the lack of legislation authorizing hi mto take certain steps for Cuban participation in the war made the veto a necessity. The espionage law applies to the citizens or subjects of any enemy

By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, July 24. Italian writers, who have visited the American army in France, are deeply impressed not only by the spirit of the soldiers themselves, but by the gigantic preparations that have been made
for transport and supply. American terminals hve been built at Mediterranean as well as at Atlantic ports in France and are constantly being enlarged. The Americans are hailed as "crusaders for the holy war" in an article published in the II Seccli XIX. of Genoa and written by a corresppndent of the Giornals O'ltalia of Rome. The article, as translated and made public today by the state department says: "The American intervention is not a formula, a hope, a promise; it is a reality, in all its forms." "The organization for transforming and receiving the great army is already complete for the actual needs and is being completed for those of the future. The building of maritime bases, of railways, immense stores of arms, food, munitions, coal, medicines, petrel, etc., are In some cases finished, and in others nearing completion; the organization is gradually broadening out; from the ocean it has today passed to the Mediterranean, to the south of France, and along the coast other works are being begun.

German Socialist Party Loses 150,000 Members (By Associated Press) l NEW YORK, July 24. The member-! ship of the Socialist na'tv in j!nnv has decreased from 177,000 in 1914 to 23,000 paying members at present. Ac- j cording to a Dresden dispatch in the i Berlin Tageblatt of June 10, a copy of which has been received here, the de-1 crease was due to the number of so- j cialists serving in the army and to the split in the socialist party of Ger-: many. Deputy Graduauer, speaking at the convention of 'he Saxon socialists, said that the circulation of socialist newspapers in Germany had increased from 618,000 copies on April 1, 1917. ta 792,000 on April 1, 1913. The number of the subscribers in the army had increased 82 percent.

RATS DEVOUR $500 WORTH A man in a nearby town recently killed 103 rats with a new kind of rat poison. According to the estimate of a Government expert, a single rat, on the average, destroys $5 worth of foodstuffs annually. At this rate, these 103 rats had been costing over $500 every year. With this new rat poison, known as Rat Mum, anyone can get rid of every rat on his place quickly and with the greatest ease. Rat Mum is entirely different from other rat poisons in that it destroys without odor. Another point neither dogs nor cats will eat it. It is rt spread on food, and you don't run this risk ot having humans eat it by mistake. Rat Mum comes in a cake. You simply crumble it and put it where the rats will get it and you're soon rid of the pests. Remember the name, Rat Mum, and a;k for a 25 cent package at your druggist's or grocer's today.
