Bits of Fruit Have Good Uses BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Fruit leftovers have their 1 uses in Summertime. Do not throw away the few berries that may be left in the dish, nor the peel from the orange, grapefruit or even lemon. The orange and lemon peel is bolled for hllf‘u\ hour, added to the extra rhu- barb juice and used with a basis of cold tea with a few sprigs of mint, sweetened and served in tall glasses. Of course, it s more delicious with the juice of fresh oranges aad lemons to supplemer.t it, but this is not neces- sary. Or the rhubarb juice can be added to lemonade or orangeade, just .as & touch of zest. Its flavor is wel- come in any Summer beverage.

You see, they were as clever and crafty and gen- erally smart as they were swift of foot. Little, indeed, did they miss. “My dear,” remarked Speedfoot, one morning, “our neighbor, Mrs. Fleetfoot, has babies.” “Who told you?” asked Mrs, Speed- foot, with more than a little interest, “NO ONE TOLD ME.’ SPEEDFOOT. for baby Antelope would make a dinner that would be a feast and nothing less. “No one told me,” replied Speedfoot. “Then how do you know?

I know it as surely hsbl uwould know it if I had seen the “All right, if you know so much why don’t we go and get a dinner of young Antelope?” asked Mrs. Speedfoot. “I don’t know it or I would go myself.” “I didn’t say that I know where those bables are, though I know somewhere near where they are,” retorted Speed- foot. “All I said was that I know Mrs. Fleetfoot has one or more bables, and you might know the same thing if you had used your eyes, my dear.” “What do you mean by that?” snn_ged Mrs. Speedfoot sharply. “Have you seen those occasional flashes 'way off there in the distance?” inquired Speedfoot. “Of course I have” retorted Mrs. Speedfoot. “There are few days that we don't see those flashes somewhere. They are Antelope signals, I know that as well as you do.” “Oh, then you have used your eyes. I beg your don,” replied Speedfoot. “It is your wits you haven't used,” he added. “So you say. Now just what do you mean?” Mrs, Speedfool was beginning to be cross. “You haven't noticed that those par- ticular flashes have been in the same neighborhood for the last two days, and you haven't used your wits,” explained torted Mrs. Speedfoot. “Tell me more.” “Why there isn't any more to tell,” replied Speedfoot. *“Those flashes ai- ways near the same place can mean but one thing. There are no answer- ing signals and so there can be but one Antelope, and no Antelope stays long in one placé unless there is a very strong reason. I passed that way a few days ago and saw Mrs. Fleetfoot graz- ing and she was alone. Not another Antelope was to be seen. So I knew that she is the one who has been flash- ing those signals. Only one thing would keep her so near to one place for sev- eral days, and that is a baby or bables. What do you say, my dear, to doing a little looking around over there?” “I believe you are right, and I con- fess I haven't used my wits,” replied Mrs. Speedfoot admiringly. “By all means let us look around over there, The mere thought of a baby Antelope dinner makes my mouth water. When shall we start?” “Now is as good a time as any,” re- plied Speedfoot grinning.

P According to the proof that has been piling up for something like 30 years, humen beings do their reasoning in two ways, These ways are known as logical reasoning and psychological reasoning. - It seems that Aristotle discovered the logical type of reasoning some 22 centuries ago. The following is an | example of this kind of reasoning: is mortal. (First premise.) Caesar is & man. (Second premise.) Caesar is mortal. (Conclusion.) This logical reasoning was the only recognized type from the e of Aristotle to Freud—from 350 B. C. to 1900. The validity of the conclusion always depends upon the truth of the ‘t;o premises, especially the first prem- In the second type of reasoning which human beings tolerate, there is no first premise, i.e, none that any one can state. Whatever there is to the first premise remains in the un- conscious mind, where even the rea- soner himself doesn’t know what it's all about. And so in the case of psy- chological reasoning, the conclusion is reached by way of feeling, instead of knowledge or logic. Whenever you run across a case of ysycholofl:ll reasoning or reasoning by leeling, the reasoner (?) becomes angry the moment he is contradicted. His feelings are hurt. Psychological reasoning meets all challenges by using the expression, “Why because,” or some such retort. ‘The reasoner (?) gets “hunches,” has “wishes,” or otherwise “feels” he i right, ¢Copyright, 1931, v I can hear kids playin’ in the street yet, an’ I been in bed a terrible long time.

Remove the husks only when ready to cook the corn. Use a vegetable brush and remove all silk. Dust the corn with salt, cover with lukewarm water and remove the corn from the fire im- mediately after the water has come to & boil. Corn boiled unnecessarily long loses its flavor and tenderness. After draining the corn, pour a generous amount of melted butter over each cob. It desired, a few drops of rich cream may be dissolved in the butter. Boiled Kale.

T think there is no more girl in her teens who, through etic situation in life than that of the er mother's death, is suddenly thrust into her mother's place and forced to assume duties and obligations that are not of her making.

I DO NOT believe that any child is called upon to sacrifice his or her whole life to their parents. Undoubtedly, children owe a great duty to their fathers and mothers, but it does not involve their giving up their every chance of happiness and prosperity’ to a father or mother's whim. 8o I think that if your father refuses to let you go out with nice young men and have nice young men come to see you in the proper way, you will be justified in leaving him to the tender mercies of a hired house- keeper while you not consider that & yourself a job and work for an employer who does has the right to tyrannize over you.

Foiling the Swindlers. No sooner do women manifest a real interest in investment stocks than a host of stock swindlers arises, avid for their money. Many swindlers are adroit, but all of them are easily exposed if one but investigates their records and their organizations. Other schemes having gone rather poorly, a good percentage of stock swindlers are operating & new kind of game. They offer to sell you shares on the installment plan. Usually they offer some outstanding stock of a leading corporation. Because a name is synonomous in this they have been using stocks under that name of Eng- land, France, Germany and other coun- tries as their bait in several instances. Usually, after paying in the full sum, you are informed that they have been unable to obtain the stock, and that they suggest in its place some stock of mflrwn.mzh,ueoum,uwonh- of swindle is to offer for stock purchased abroad. A ‘service e.mr& is added which makes the price of stock prohibitive. Still another scheme, perhaps more subtle, 15 to inform you that no stock could be bought and your money will be returned with 6 per cent interest. It is returned, and your confidence in the schemers’ integrity is established. They are not long in exploiting that confi- dence for all it is worth, Of course, a visit to your bank or investment house would at once estab- lish the fact that there is no stock of France or of Germany under the name mentioned.

For three days he trudged up and down the street with the doll buggy, while the girls rode his velocipede. Unselfishness is one thing, but meek submission is something else.
