Since that time ideas on cooking have undergone radical changes. and what were thought im- possible foods are now commonly served and enjoyed. America leads in this sort of food experimenting. She likes “to try things once” and if this once is sat- isfactory. something new is added to the menu. Some of our dishes are amazing combinations to fcreigners—and some to Americans themselve: But each person has the opportunity at least of trying out dishes here, and making such selections as suit her taste or that of her family.

Caries, as the dentists call it, is un- cuestionably the most nearly universal disease of civilized mankind. It has al- ways seemed to me, just from general observation. that it doesn’t make any difference whether the child brushes his teeth or no.. When exceptiopally well preserved teeth are found in a child it is as likely as not to be a child who gives his teeth little or no care in the matter of brushing. The average school child, irrespective of the toilet of | the mouth, has seven cavities. dentists with considerable experience in inspec- tion report Julian D. Boyd. M. D, and C Drain, D. D: 8., observed numerous stances of spontaneous arrest of dental caries in children under treatment f-r diabetes. Teeth containing large cav ties, which ordinarily would have area of softened dentin around cavity, were found to be very dense. and subsequent examination showed that the decay process had been checked the teeth. Some teeth showing un- questionzble arrest of caries were found in the most poorly kept mouths. The investigators examined the medical his- tories of these children and found that without exception the children with spontaneously arrested caries we betes patients who had been undes ful medical management for six months or more All the children received insulin to enable them to utilize more carbohy- drate and 0 gain strength and weight and a diet designed to meet the chila normal requirements for growth, setivity and health, differing from the ordinary diet of a bealthy child in that fat is used rather than carbohydrate as the thickened with Such soups can be delicate and delicious, but they must be prepared with care or resemble a thin corn. starch pudding, or a gelatin jelly that develop- gly re- Certainly a cold soup is ! e e { perhaps jellied and served in bouillon cups. It is the idea of substituting fruit juices for meat that has the element of novelty. While fruit soups are an outcome of cold broths, they more nearly resembie a fruit cocktail, strained and slightly hickenad, n meat soups. The juices of any fresh wed fruits are the nicest foundations for fruit soups. These are easy to get in the Summertime, when the cold soups are in demand. How- ever, if there is a scarcity of fresh fruit, canned may be substituted. Tt is likely (hat seme jars of home-canned are left.

The juice of sour erries is also excellent. Several fruit n go into the making of a sin- i soup. When canning fruit, a fine use for the extra juices that some- times cannot be held in the jars over the firm pieces is to use them for fruit' soups.

Stockholders’ meetings were equally divided and it was apparent that the business would be greatly impaired by the dissension.

The opposing group con- tested the suit, contending that as the business was solvent, a receiver could not be appointed for it The court., however, appointed a re- ceiver, stating “The rule is well settled that a court of equity has jurisdiction, at the in- stance of stockholders, to apoint a re- ceiver for a solvent corporation, on the ground of fraud. gross mismanagement. or dissension among the stockholders, directors or officers, if there is no other remedy.” were dead- IT WILL KILL ANY INSECT Dead.
