Orange and pineapple added to rich lemonade improve it for, some people. | Half a cup of lemon juice, six | tablespoonfuls of syrup, and thre | ceupfuls of cold water make a gooul | lemonade. | Currant jelly dissolved in eitiier hot or cold water makes an ex- cellent drink. So do many other jellies. | Chilled blackberry or raspberry juice diluted to taste and serve with or without a slice of lemon touches the spot. Fruit lemonade is made by adi- ing small pieces of sliced pineap- | ple, orange, muskmelon, cherrivs, | and a sprig of mint leaves. | Use the lemon squeezer 01, oranges just as on lemons and| pour the juice on finely eracked | artificial ice.

Make it by| beating an egg yolk until it is Jemon colored and thick. Then add a teaspoonful of sugar grad- ually and follow this with the stif- fly beaten-white of the egg.

I, July 31.—Be- cause they use too much water ‘and too little soap, women do not get the same dazzling whiteness in their washed clothes as do the United States Marines, Sergeant Claranee D. Rhoades, of the Ma- rine Corps, told a party of soc S| ty women visiting the batleship Utah’ today. “The eye-paining brilliance of our white clothes is dur to the/* fact that we wash with our heads as well as our hands, and we let soap do its proper share of the work.: Just enough water to; thoroughly wet. the wash is suffi- ecient,’ the sergeant continued, “and the less water and more soap one uses the whiter the washing will turn out.
