Home-MacU Drinks
' By Mrs. Christine Frederick; -
The Distinguished Authority on Houaibold EB Idiocy.
M
pAMA, buy me a soda,"
the frequent plea of the
small child during the
warm weather. .
.Now, while our laws enforcing
the inspection of beverage and
other foods have greatly improved
In the pest few years, it Is never
theless true that as a cites "toft
drinks" are most likely to be adul
terated and artificially colored of
flavored with chemically com
pounded tastes and odors. :
" And so it seems an unwise thing
to permit young children to drink
these things. Children teas for
bought "pink lemonade only be
cause a satisfactory equivalent U
not provided at home.
This year soft drinks are in
greater demand than ever before.
Why does the housekeeper not see
her opportunity o save money and
to better serve her family's health
by making soft drinks at hornet
There are on the market sufficient
kinds of bottled fruit Jukes of the
highest grade to form a basis tdf
euch home beverages. 8he can
also use the syrups from canned
fruits.
No artificial flavors can possibly
compete with natural fruit Juices as
a means of refreshment and cool
ing tonic. Grape Juice contains
(potash salts, tartaric acid, iron and
is particularly high in ability to
cleanse and keep the body tempera
ture low. Lemons and lhnee are
natural tonics. W should culti
vate a wider fast for the bottled
lime juice. A few drops 'Of it
poured into Iced water will aave its
the musslnees and delay of a
lemonade. The loganberry' Jules
is another refreshing flavor, with
wide possibilities, as punch, shrub,
etc. Pineapple and apple juice
nay be bought bottled. The Juice
of any berry (not forgetting the
elderberry, free for the taking on
the Summer road) has a sub-acid
piquancy which delights and cools.
$ven peaches, pears, watermelon,
etc., contain salts and acids which
are especially needful in Summer.
These fruit Juleee inaf be used
plain or partially dilated with
shaved ice or eool water as substi
tutes for tea and coffee at meals.
A glass of grape Juice taken -with
meals by an aenemic child or
adult will aid digestion and in
crease the blood supply". Similarly,
apple Juice, loganberry Juice, ete
will be found a healthful meal
beverage for Anybody since they
refresh without the harmful Stimu
lation of tea and coffee.
The Reason
a LMOST every Confirmed bach
J elor believes that ke might
have married A treat many
women. In his heart Of hearts he
has an idea that almost every wom
an who ever smiled upon him or
blinked an Interested eyelash at
him would only too gladly have
become his wife.
But, after all, siace be really
never "popped" the vital question,
what right has he to be so sure?
I wonder how many hearts the
boastful bachelor thmks he has
thrown aside which he never reaDy
had at all!
Many a bachelor se! his friend
walk off with one of his Old girls
and secretly laughs, saying to him
self that he might have had her.
But could he have wen her? Tea.
she bestowed coufitless dimpled
smiles upon him. she sang her best
for him, she tolerated him but
that is the woman of it. That la
the side of a woman the bachelor
does not understand.
Later,' perhaps, this same heart
breaker of a bachelor sees his di
vorced friend carry away another
girl of his. But he alaps himself
upon the back and goes forth to
play the game of love again la
catch a girl for another chum and
add another to his list of reveries.
Perhaps in old age the bachelor
receives a revelation of the truth
that never In his lite has he made,
an actual "conquest"; that if-he
had ever submitted hit neck to the
matrimonial yoke It would then
have been the (woman, not himself,
who "withdrew gracefully."

Nowh It only a step to convert .
any fruit bevetage.lnto a.soda by
meant of carbonated water. Not
all housekeeper know' that any
drag store or grocery will supply
their borne with, a case or less bf
bottles - of carbonated water or
"Ticby." This la what gives the
"fizz" so dear to childish hearts,
who delight ia a "soda not o
t, much because of its sweetness or
its flavor, but for that wonderful
cascade of bubbles in the glass.
By pressing the syphon lever, as
much "fizz" as desired may be In
jected into any beverage, making
: it the exact counterpart of the
"soda" one gets at the store.
In addition to fruit drinks la the
large class having milk aa an In
gredient milk shakes, -eggnogs,
snd particularly malted milks. Any
drink with either milk, egg or
chocolate added la most nourish
ing. An egg-malted milk, for to
; ' stance, eaten with a few crackers,
1 is a "complete" meal for Summer.
No more refreshing and less tax
' .tflg meal could be taken than such
1 a large glass of malted milk, with
! egg and chocolate flavor, and it Is
! especially suitable to. the needs of
the harried housewife or children.
One anemia child of six, who never
could be induced to- take egg in
any form, greedily drank such
'sodas" for its lunch, withmost
happy results. Beaten eggs may
also be added to the fruit flavors,
chDled, and called by any fancy
name desired.
A basic syrup for all fruit mix
tares Is made as follows: Add one
quart of water to one pound of
sugar and boil five minutes. Cool
and add strained fruit juice in de
' sirable proportion. Juices may be
bdttled at the time of canning or
putting up any fruit, and this Sum
mer it would be well for the house
keeper to remember this when
doing this work. Squeeze or mash
the fruit into Juice, and strain
through a coarse sieve. Measure
the Juice and add half the amount
of Sugar. Bring to the boiling point,
stran through flannel or fine sieve;
reheat, boil five minutes and, bottle
at once. Peach, pear, pineapple and
any berry juice can be bottled In
this way and kept for beverage use.
There are many syrups which
' may be made once a week and kept
the rest of the time la the refrigera
tor or other very cool place. Such
syrups aave mach time and mussl
ness in making drinks for unex
pected guests, and are frequently
more economical.
Wky TkeyVe Bachelors
ti r r 3
By Jane Baird.
ower have the bachelor beaten ten
to one. They really have made a
"conduest," and they really under
stand women. And the worst of it
is that the bachelor doesn't know
he is beaten! He struts about
bragging about what he might have
done and prides himself that he has
always thrown his hearts to the
four wlnds.s
The truth is that, although he
may chuckle up his sleeve and
think he knows the ladles, he
doesn't know as much about them
aa a new-born babe. All the bach
eloT'l reveries torn fnte pipe
dreamt, and ever will.. It he wants
to really find out what he can do
instead of what he night have done
he will hate to hunt up his chums
who married! and get a few hints
on the subject
Woman is sd complex that it
takea more than two or three hours
of pleasant companionship to under
stand her. The bachelor must have
a great conception of the feminine
natural And yet to hear him talk
one might 'suppose the poor mar
ried man a mere greenhorn.
But if the bachelor wrre to start
out with a widower orA divorced
man to' win a wife th bachelor
would probably have the hardest
run. The man who has been over
the matrimonial road once ts like
a bby from college compared with
a wild young stag from the back
woods. Not that a woman has such
a refining influence that she pro
duces this great change, but that a
woman ia a woman, and really to
know her and her fads and fancies
a man must have been married to
her.

An eggbeater, a drink mixer, a
good squeezer and a wooden spoon
are important aids in preparing
Summer beverages. Never prepare
fruit juices in tin or metal ware or
use any but a long wooden spoon.
The mere drawing-room woman
is not the creature men encounter
in their married life. No matter
how many sisters a bachelor has,
no matter how well he knows his
mother, he can never understand
them as he can a wife.
The widower has a slight advan
tage 'even over the divorced man
in winning another wife, because
he creates sympathy. A woman's
heart is filled with the desire to
'comfort Even the hardest woman
wants to comfort a child on the
street when she sees it in tears.
And so when gentle woman sees
the lonely, sorrowful widower, ap
proaching her path and asking for
her lore, her heart opens and Alls
with pity for him.
The divorced man can, of course,
concoel a tale of misery and abuse,
and he usually does, ills little ex
perience has quite fitted htn to
know the feminine nature.
Bat the bachelor is at the tail
end of the race. Oh. yes. he
THINKS he is the winner, butjftkt
Is because he is merely tolerated.'
Women will tolerate a great deal.
That is one of their best charac
teristics. If. however, the average bach
elor should decide .to-stop bragging
what he might have done and actu
ally propose, he might have to get
upon hia knees several times before
he succeeded In getting a wife!
All this goes to show that the
bachelor's accounts of bis love af
fairs 'must be taken with a large
Krain of salt. They are Interesting,
but only as fiction. If we want the
teal truth about them we must look
to some other person than the
bachelor who figured in them.

touch, with a rotary motion whose

Beautys
By Lina Cavalieri,
Tb Most Famous Living Beauty.
I
AM going to give you a few
general rules that may be fol
lowed in .choosing the coiffure
that shall be moat becoming to you.
first, you must be particularly care
ful not to accentuate that which
Nature haa already accented too
much.
If it happens that you have a
round, chubby face, counteract this
too decided tendency by building
the hair high.- As nearly as possi
ble give the coiffure the effect .of a
pyramid. The one high point at
the top of the head- will materially
lengthen the face ;aad lessen that
roundness which (tight tend to in
sipidity. The high built coiffure
will thus give special distinction to
a face that had lacked it .
Should the forehead be too low,
comb the hair loosely back from it
This will add to its apparent height
.as well as emphasize, the, alertness
and intelligence bfthe expression.
If, on the other .band. Nature has
given you the knobby by whicb I
mean the intellectual forehead,
the brow which ie full and high and
broad, with projecting bumps, you
most modify Nature's extreme by
training the hair to fall in loose ten
drils upon it Also comb the re
mainder of the hair loosely from
about it Never tightly, for that
will only Increase the drawn, fright
ened look which Nature haa al
ready carelessly bestowed.
To express this more succinctly,
remember that If your face be
broad, a high arrangement of the
hair trill increase Its apparent
length.
'If yours be a lender counten
ance, then affect the low coiffure,
for its tendency is toward breadth
If the face be broad, do not build
the hair out loosely about the ears.
Instead, comb Jt upward above the
ears.'
But if the face be slender. Its ap-
parent breadth is added to by the

As to the color of the hair, it I
my Judgment we women would be
far better off If we would leave it
as it is. Nature Is the greatest and
most accurate colorlst In the world.
With very few -exceptions she
matches complexion, eyes and eye
brows perfectly with the hair.
Transform your hair and you will
be at the trouble to transform your
entire person.
For myself, I seldom change! the .
atyle of wearing my hair Long
ago I found that flat waves drawn
low upon my brow and cheeks were
peculiarly becoming to me. In it
self the style happens to be a try
ing one, but it suite me most re
markably. The Italian women are
almost .the only nation that can
wear It to advantage. It somehow
seems to belong to the large, soft
eyes, straight-nose and delicate
chin of the race. r
Naturally, then, through all the)
succeeding years, whether off the
stage or on, I have worn my nalr
in this fashion, because it look
best that way. in fact I never
Tary the style save when the times
or character I am playing demand
a change. r.
It la my firm opinion that the
woman who discovers the style of
bairdressing that is adapted to her
. individual atyle, and with some pos
sible slight modifications, which are
conceealon to the mode, preserves
that general style until the chisel
ing of the years has so changed her
face that she requires a different
cOiffure, la the clever woman.
I knew a ytry lovely woman who
dressed her hair in the same style
for thirty years. It is admirable
for her long, patrician features, set
ting off their toingled delicacy and
strength .and her rare, fine coloring.
In time she will doubtless chance
i aiiv hj one so iter ana looser,
i llated to lessen the effect of
I ageing features. But that time,
f happily, is still far off for this truly
- wonueruu woman.
r S6 i I4ell you that in general, it
II abaolntely true that preserving
approximately the same outlinea of v
a coiffure for most of a lifetime
makel a woman, seem much young-
Sthan does a constant changing
out from one style of bairdress
ing to another. .
