a linen cloth and add to it one quart of
cold water. Extract the Juice from the
• lemons and oranges and add to the
mixture, with one quarter of a pint of
candied cherries divided into halves,
two ozen Malaga grapes ctu in halves
two Tangerine oranges skinned and cut
into bits, two or three slices of pine
apple and a good sized banana, also
sliced. To the whole add one bottle of
good claret and a quarter of a pint of
Maraschino. Serve ice cold and from
a punch bowl.
Chocolate, when carefully made and
served, is delicious as well as whole
some. Put one ounce of unsweetened
* chocolate into a saucepan and pour on
it gradually one pint of boiling water,
stirring all the time. Put the sauce
pan on the fire and stir until the choco
late is all dissolved, then add a pint of
granulated sugar and stir until it be
gins to boll. Cook for three minutes
longer without stirring; then strain
0 and cool. Add one teaspoonful of va
nilla extract, bottle and store in a cool
place. When needed put two table
spoonfuls of crushed ice In a tumbler,
add two tablespoonfuls of the chocolate
syrup, three tablespoonfuls of whipped
cream, one gill of milk and half a gill
of carbonic or apollinaris water. Stir
thoroughly before drinking.
A simple, wholesome drink that can
be given children can be made with
good home-made currant Jelly as the
^ main flavoring. For the foundation
boil two pounds of sugar and a quart
of water together for five minutes.
Skim thoroughly, then add the Juice
of two lemons nnd large orange. Strain
carefully and finally stir in a full pint
of the best currant jelly. Continue
stirring until the Jelly is entirely dis
solved, then place on ice until very
cold. At the moment of serving add a
bountiful supply of chipped ice and
one quart of apollinaris water.
Hair in Warm Weather.
When the hair becomes heavy with
* perspiration washing is the only re
medy. Frequent shampooing is essen
tial in summer, when perspiration and
dust are at work to make the hair in
tractable and ugly. When hair Is damp
with salt water or spray fluffiness is
out of the question. When bathing in
the surf it is possible to keep the hair
dry, and this should be done, or else
great pains taken to wash the salt
0 water thoroughly out of the hair, for
sea bathing, while a tonic to the sys
tem in general, is not beneficial to the
hair.
Age of Development.
Will you please tell me if girls reach
their full development before they are
Wf» ^
21? I am 18, blit am often told that 1
do not look more than 15 or 16. Could
I enlarge my hips by physical exer
cise? Margaret S.
Yes, generally about 18 years of age,
but they are more sensible and mature
after several years more have passed.
Yes, you can.
Trouble with Red Nose.
I am troubled with a red nose. Please
prescribe. Anxious.
Take the nose l»y the tip and massage
upward to the root. Do this frequqentlv
and avoid stimulating meat and drinks.
Take plenty of open air exercise dally.
Dissolve one drachm of muriate of am
monia and one-half drachm of tannic
acid in two ounces of glycerine. Add
three ounces of rose water. Soak a
1 iece of absorbent co'ton in this and
bind it one the nose every night.
C. A. T. writes she has dandruff and
asks what she can do to obviate it.
Answer: Dandrug can be easily re
medied by rubbing the head thoroughly
once or twiee a day with the hands.
Do not use any water on your hair, hut
give it a thorough rubbing, rubbing the
scalp all over thoroughly with the
hands, massaging and kneading the
scalp. Don’t use hair tonics.. Nothing
will prevent the hair from falling out
in the way of tonics. Salt water is
good, if if is very carefully brushed
on to the scalp with a tooth brush,
wetting only the roots of the hair. This
should only be done three times a
week. Do not wet the hair at any other
time or comb it. Brush it lightly with
i soft brush, once a day. Bet it go
loose as much ns possible. Bet the sun
shine on vour head as much as possible,
ff your vitality could he increased, eli
mination of the body and perfect health
restored, the hair would .quit falling
out Falling .hair is one symptom of
depression f the nervous system. Con
.ipation causes dandruff, as the blood
which goes to feed the hair is poisoned.
Dandruff requires a general toning up
of the body: eat plenty of fresh veget
ables, bathe internally and externally
and thus cleanse the system and it will
disappear.
B. M. A. wants to know about thin
and thick soled shoes and light and
heavy weight clothing.
Answer: Don’t wear thin soled shoes.
One may take cold from chilling of the
feet as the result of wearing thin soled
shoes in walking over a cold pavement,
even when the pavement is perfectly
dry.
In spite of the fact that modern fash
ions favor light clothing, there are still
some people who wear too heavy
clothes. If your work is indoors, where
it is warm, dress lightly, and put on
extra clothes when you go out in the
cold. Of course warm weather de
mands light clothing.

Holt’s Cash Store.
