w OMAN’S PAGE, Utilizing Leftover Ice Cream BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. It is always a question just what to do with left-over ice cream. The thrifty housewife hesitates to throw it away, realizing that the ingredients are ex- cellent. The sole fault is that the BAVARIAN MADE FROM LEFT- OVER ICE CREAM IS DELICIOUS. eream is liquid instead of solid. The ideas given today may prove helpful in utilizing left-overs. The ice cream must be kept chilled in the refrigerator, and Fashions of Today. BY MARIE SHALMAR. Bracelets. ‘The bracelet is one of the oldest bits of ormnamentation worn by mankind. Strangely enough, modern anthropolo- gists contend that mankind probably ‘wore ornaments before he wore clothes. His desire for jewelry developed before his sense of modesty, and, too, before the rigors of a cooling climate made clothes necessary for warmth. Men as well as women wore bracelets in antiquity. The Bible is full of ref- erences to brocelets worn by both men and ‘women. In ancient times bracelets were some- times of stones and metals that we today would call precious, sometimes of material that has no intrinsic value today. Of course, standards of this kind of thing have ged. ‘The Greeks developed the art of bracelets to a high degree, and the Romans followed them. In Rome broad silver armlets were worn by sol- diers, much as decorations are worn today, as a mark of valor, Food Problems BY SALLY MONROE, Compotes. On a French menu compote may in- dicate any dish of stewed fruit, but in kitchen French compote is invariably used to describe a highly sweetened, concentrated sort of cooked fruit. usu- ally one in which a number of fruits have been used together. ‘Thus in one American cook book we have a compote of apples, peaches and figs, another of apricots and pineapples, :a: of currants, cherries and raspber- with cranberries, peaches with plums, prunes with kumquats, strawberries with plneapple, figs, citron and ginger in others. If the Prench cook did concoct such rich mixtures of fruit, which no Prench cook probably would, he would probably call it a confiture. In others pears are combined | only creams can be put to use, not water ices or sherbets. Chocolate nut cake with ice cream sauce is one of the delicious desserts served in famous New York restaurants. Any plain chocolate cake can be used instead of the nut cake, or a plain or rich golden cake or a sponge cake. The chocolate nut cake has vanilla sauce generally, but other kinds can be used. A constrasting color looks more attrac- tive than one that matches in tone as a chocolate sauce does. For this reason the vanilla ice cream sauce is not so decorative on a plain cake, nor the chocolate on a chocolate cake, The sauce should not only be ereamy but fluffy and light. If it does not have this texture, whip it with an egg beater, not _enough to stiffen it, but to give the texture desired. The cake should be cold. THe top can be ornamented with maraschino or candied cherries, chop- ped nuts, etc. A delicious dessert can be made by adding enough gelatin to left-over ice cream to stiffen it. If, as it stiffens, whipped cream is folded in, the dessert becomes ice cream Bavarian. A novel way to serve this is to put a slice of the stiffened ice cream between two slices of sponge cake. Top with a spoon- ful of whipped cream and dot with a cherry. (Copyright, 1930.) THE STAR’S DAILY PATTERN SERVICE. Accentuates Slimness. ‘The model selected is decidedly ex- clusive. It is serviceable, too, inter- preted in navy blue silk crepe. The becoming neckline has an inset vestee of powder-pink crepe silk. A trimming band that terminates in jabot of printed crepe that reflects the blue and pink tones give it a French accent. The long-fitted sleeves affect a cuff through trimming band of the printed crepe. The bodice is drawn in to the figure at either side, indicating the smart higher waistline. This also is a clever means of fitting the hipline. Style No. 434 comes in sizes 16, 18, 20 years; 36, 38, 40 and 42 inches bust. For afternoons it is fascinating of chiffon in sapphire blue shade, self- trimmed or of putty-beige crepe Eliza- beth with ecru lace trim. Printed crepe silk in Lanvin green tones, orangey-red crepe silk and violet- blue canton crepe are alluring, smart.

April 22, 1797.—Business men here consider the prospects unusually bright at present for the future commercial development of the Federal City. One evidence of this expected pros- perity was furnished today by the ‘Washington Gazette, which published an advertisement that “last week sailed from Barry's Wharf, Eastern Branch Harbor, the ship Maryland, bu nearly 400 tons, laden with bread and flour bound to Ionic ports for the bene- fit of the owners.” ‘The Gazette adds: “The above ship is noticed as the first ship which has sailed from the City of Washington full and bound for a foreign port.” Hereto- fore foreign-bound ships have sailed from Georgetown. The significance of this announce- ment was grasped at once by the busi- ness interests of this city and George- town. The former are confident that they have the finer harbor for ocean- going vessels, and that soon the City of Washington will outstrip the City of Georgetown as & port of shipment. ‘There has been much speculation in real estate along the Eastern Branch river front between Greenleaf Point and the space laid out for the Navy Yard, also between that part of the waterfront and inland to the Capitol, where it is expected that the main business section of the new Federal metropolis will grow. Delaware and New Jersey avenues, and South Capitol street between Washington and the Eastern Branch are looked upon as likely to become good business streets at their lower portions near the wharves, and good residence streets at their upper portions near the Capitol. A hotel and lodging houses are springing up along the Eastern Branch and between there and the Capitol, especially toward the south from the Capitol in the direction of Buzzard’ Point and the mouth of James Creek. In the immediate vicinity of Barry’s Wharf the walls of a sugar-making fac- tory are already rising. The backer of this factory is Thomas Law, the well known Englishman who arrived here recently and has determined to make heavy investments in real estate and other property here. Mr. Law believes in the future of the Capital City and desires to take part in it. It is understood that a daily boat line will be established in a few days from Barry's Wharf to Alexandria. All this is displeasing to the business men of Georgetown. Cabbage Salad.

Greas Driin Righis Rasorved MAIDENS “NOW, NOW, TOTO!" BEAUTY CHATS Other Ways of Reducing. Any one who 1s suffering from dia- betes has little trouble reducing, for many of the restrictions of a diabetic diet are also in any regular reducing diet. A diet for diabetes cuts out a lot of carbohydrates, that is, sugar and starch; and sugar and starch are no- toriously fattening. Of course to keep a properly balanced healthy diet, the lack of carbohydrates must be made up for by fats or by vegetable albumen. But, on the whole, & fat man or woman can reduce on a diabetic diet. Besides, one has the feeling of security that the diet was directed by a doctor and there- fore must be all right. Let me take these suggestions from the diet of a diabetic patient, and give them to any one who wishes to reduce. First of all, ordinary bread should be gluten bread. Ordinary good deal of starch, pe: drate. All sauces should be made with luten flour. Ordinary bouillon or, in fact, any soup not taken as a clear thin soup, should be thickened with gluten flour. Even the breakfast cocoa 50 fre- mlenfly recommended as part of the et can be cheered up a bit by adding gluten flour. Later on, when there are less traces of harmful sugar in the system, the diabetic patient is allowed a little more carbohydrate. Bread that is only part- ly gluwn can be taken. Some g’oxrle find this much more palatable. led and baked potatoes, Jerusalem arti- chokes and salsify go into the diet, and arrowroot can be used for thickening sauces. Of course as we're speaking of dia- betes we must take into account the valuable new treatment with insulin. But you, I hope, have neither diabetes nor any tendency thereto. I am men- tioning this diet which substitutes sac- charine for sugar and gluten for ordi- nary starchy flour merely as a hint to those who must cut down the fat-pro- ducing carbohydrates in their diet.

Egg Cutlets. Cook four fresh eggs below the boil- ing point for 25 minutes, pour off the water, then add cold water. Remove the shells as quickly as possible, as this keeps the yolks from discoloring. Chop the eggs fine. Make a thick cream sauce with two tablespoonfuls of but- ter, four tablespoonfuls of flour and one and one-half cupfuls of milk. Cook until the sauce is very thick, then add one teaspoonful of salt, a little cayenne pepper, and set aside to get cold. Sea- son the eggs with salt and pepper. ‘When both mixtures are cold, mix them together, form into cutlets, dip in beaten egg, then in white stale bread crumbs, and fry in deep fat. Drain on paper and serve with Bechamel sauce. FEATURES. A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT PLUMMER. \UICK were the two Ruths in Con- gress to speed congratulations to the third Ruth when it became apparent that she had won the Republican nomi- nation in Ilinois for the United States nate. Ruth Baker Pratt would not wait until morning. At 10 o'clock the night of the election she knew that her friend and colleague, Ruth Hanna McCormick, had won out. At that hour she wired: “From all T hear, think it is not too early to congratu- late you. Love and best wishes.” Ruth Bryan Owen, none the less enthusiastic, how- ever, did walt until she did upon ar- riving at her office on the Hill was to dispatch the mes- sage: . !;lurfimt con- gratulations on your sweeping_vi > Ml'l:. ‘Ow:x'x”"llm confided that she used the word “sweeping” purposely. Her first choice was “outstanding,” but she didn’t think it was a strong enough word to “qualify such a victory. But it remained for Florence P. Kahn, dean of the gentlewomen in Congress, more aptly to express the attitude to her sister colleagues than any other. Mrs. Kahn, whose wisecracks and witticisms are repeated on the Hill al- most, as often as those of Nick Long- worth’s, was coming to her office from the Capitol after having had breakfast with Col. Johnny Tilson, the Republi- can leader in the House. En route she passed by the office of Ruth Baker Pratt. Opening the door, thinking that she would find Mrs. Pratt in, she was told that the New York woman was at a committee meeting. But Mrs. Kahn was not to be de- prived of the opportunity to use the wisecrack she had thought up for Mrs. Pratt. With only her head in the door and her face wreathed in smiles, the called out to Reeves, Mrs. Pratt's secre- iy ry: “Well, Mr. Reeves, us girls are still at the top!” Then, chuckling, continued on her way.

Suitable diet will give the sufferer much relief, but medical treat- men is necessary to effect a permanent cure. And once a cure has been at- tained by medicical treatment, the pa- tient must remember that if he or she relapses into the old dietary habits that brought on the trouble in the first place the same disease may develop again. That isn't a relapse or a recurrence. It is rather like having had a boil on your neck last Christmas and then on the Fourth of July getting a boil on your neck. If you did I hope you won't, but such things happen, you know, and it isn't reasonable to blame the doctor or the treatment you used last Christmas | for the boil with which you're fated to celebrate the Fourth. Notice I make no bones of using the term “medical cure” of ulcer. Five years ago I would not have dared say that. It simply wasn't done in our best medical circles—I mean peptic ulcer simply wasn't cured then, at least not as a rule. Up to five years ago we felt that we were giving the gastric or duodenal ulcer patient a very good break if we succeeded in keeping him off the operat- ing table, though we were firm in keep- BRADY, M. D. ing him half-starved, for we were ob- sessed with the fear that solid food would irritate and aggravate the ulcer. This obsession was akin to the quaint practice of withholding all solid food from typhoid patients—a practice which, T believe, contributed to an unfavorable outcome in not a few cases of typhoid fever a generation ago. ‘The surgeons, viewing this disposition to deal conservatively with ulcer pa- tients, began to dwell with extraordinary emphasis on the sad complications of perforation, hemorrhage and peritonitis, which unquestionably happen in an oc- casional case of peptic uicer. This agi- tation in the medical socieites and the medical journals brought in a few more ulcer cases for operation. The surgeons were still unsatisfied. So they went into conference, so to speak, and tabulated some statistics from one of our great wholesale surgical emporiums, which |tended to show that there was 1 | chance in 14 that unhealed peptic ulcer | may eventually develop malignancy— that is, after several years cancer may occur in the site of the ulcer. It is true that an uhealed ulcer has some tendency to become malignant, but on the happy other hand, dietary and medical treatment today will heal, cure practically every uncomplicated case of peptic ulcer.
