LOOSE LEAF
RECIPE BOOK
Among the variety of bandy recipe
books ?or the housekeeper, which in­
clude bound envelopes for clippings,
cabinets with loose cards and Indexed
books generally, nothing probably fits
the situation so well as the loose-leaf
notebook, such as students use. One
of the sort with ring fasteners which
allow the book to open flat is the best.
With it, a leaf may be removed and
taken to the kitchen without endan­
gering the entire book with kitchen
smirches, and when a leaf is mutilat­
ed or a recipe has outlived its useful­
ness the leaf on which it is written
or pasted may be removed.. When
new recipes come they may be in­
serted in their legitimate places with
only the effort of removing and re­
placing the back fasteners. The books
that open lengthwise are liked best
by most women, and the smaller the
size of the book the'less room it will
occupy. Leaves can always be bought
when the supply runs out, and clip­
pings may ty- written. These loose
leaf books have taken the place of
bound blank books for many purposes,
and a set of them for notes of various
kinds, and even for Illustrations, pro­
grams and the kind which one likes
to keep 1 b a real convenience.

Topeka, Kan.—Kansas farmers are

weather he just dotes on bathing. It
is not necessary to provide a porce­
lain or enamel-lined bathtub for His
Highness the Hog, but the porker will
properly appreciate a nice cement
bathtub which may be drained and
filled again with clean water.
“He will return the favor, too, by
putting on more fat and growing
faster and eating less than when he
has a muddy hole in which to wallow.
A bog-wallow 1 b absolutely necessary

bog. He is so constructed that wal­
lowing in water is necessary to pre­
serve his health and keep him grow­
ing. People do not feel right unless
they bathe frequently, and the same
applies to the hog.
“Give the hog every possible chance
to take a bath, Build a cement basin
in the hog lot. Have It drained and
then provide it with fresh water.
There is no need for hot and cold
water. In the water put about one
part of any of the commercial dips to
100 parts water. This will keep off
germs and parasites from the pigs
and forestall many of the common hog
diseases which kill thousands of Kan­
sas hogs every year. If given his
choice, the hog will walk into the
cement wallow every time. It Is just
as necessary to keep hogs clean and
healthy as It is to give them good
feed and to have good breeds to start
with.”

TO POLISH LEATHER FRAMES
Certain Kinds of Leather Can Be
Brightened by Rubbing Occa­
sionally With Turpentine.
Dull leather frames, especially the
colored embossed ones, are so ugly
that most housekeepers are worried
with them.
Special polishes are sold for differ-
ent kinds and colors of leather. These
should be bought from a reliable deal-
er and It ls well to take the frames
along In buying the polish, as various
tones are sold.
Certain kinds of leather can be
freshened by rubbing it occasionally
with turpentine to take off the stalnB,
followed by an application of crude
oil to prevent cracking and stiffening.
Use only a drop or two of the
liquids and rub the oil in with a piece
of clean flannel. Later polish with
a clean soft silk handkerchief.
Be sure your frame really is leather
before trying to clean it. as many of
the new frames are compositions and
‘he turpentine will affect the coloring.

NIGHT IN 8ANITARY WAY.
Monticello, N. Y.—A horse belong­

Sulllyan county, while In pasture the
other night was torn to death by dogs.
About midnight the owner of the
horse was awakened by the barking of
dogs.
He got his shotgun and, going to
the rear of his house, discovered the
horse on the ground, while the dogs
were tearing him to pieces.
Again and again he shot at the dogs
without stopping the maddened ani­
mals. Hearing the shooting, farmers
who lived near by, with pitchforks'
and clubs, drove the dogs away. It is
believed that hunting dogs lost by
hunters have become wild.

And the restaurant proprietor’s fea-

"They are the same,” was the quiet
response. "Those are rubber oysters,

Tooth In Woman’s Lung.
Toledo, O.—By means of minute
electric lamps, which made ft possible
to see down a woman's throat and Into
the lower lobe of the right lung, and
to insert through the trachea exten­
sible forceps, a Toledo physician re­
moved a fragment of a tooth from the
right lung of Mrs. G. Cole of Van
Wert, and without doubt saved her
life.
Last February, while under the In­
fluence of an anaesthetic, Mrs. Cole
had several teeth extracted. Shortly
after she began to fail in health and
her symptoms pointed, apparently, to
tuberculosis.
Certain aspects of the case indi­
cated the possibility of a foreign sub­
stance in the lung and an X-ray exam­
ination proved that a portion of a
tooth had slipped down into the lung.

Delightful Drink Is Now to Be Had
In Convenient Form.
The man who thinks out and bring«
out a new food preparation usually has
to create the “long-felt want” which
he fills.
Ip tackling the pineapple
juice problem, no Buch difficulty con­
fronted James D. Dole, of Honolulu.
When we eat pineapple it is for the
juice alone, and less fibrous and more
tender the fruit, the juicier it is and
the better we like iL
When the doctor orders pineapple in
cases of throat trouble or certain stom­
ach and intestinal difficulties it is the
pure, uncooked juice pressed from the
ripest obtainable fruit which
he
wants his patient to have. It is this
same refreshing juice which the nurse
gives fever convalescents where cool­
ing and slightly acid drinks are desir­
able. So pineapple juice already had a
place.
The problem then, to be solved, was
how to get the pure juice of pineapple
on the market in such a form that it
would please the healthy lover of the
fruit, and be useful to the doctor and
the nurse, A syrup would not do, be-
cause of the impossibility of suiting
individual tastes. Even the juice of
the finest Hawaiia canned pineapple
would not answer with its small quan­
tity of preservative pure cane sugar,
because the physician needs to regulate
the amount of sugar prescribed. To
make a long story short, Mr. Dole
spent years in experiments which fin­
ally resulted in the Hawaiia Pineapple
Juice which bears his name.
Dole’s is the Juice of “Picked Ripe”
Hawaiian Pineapples pressed out and
bottled on the Islands where the fruit
grows. Filtered, refined, sterilized in
the bottle, retaining all the natural
flavor and aroma, not a bit of sugar,
water, preservative, or anything else
is added. It has been four months on
the market.
During this time the
Juice has been distributed all over the
United States, in some parts in ample
quantities, while in others the supply
has been very restricted.
Its success has been most gratifying
and unprecedented.
In its favor were the previous favor­
able reception of Haiwaian Pineapple,
the general knowledge of its high
quality, the therapeutic values of
pineapple juice known to the medical
profession, and the remarkable pro­
duct itself.
So, four months have
sufficed to give this new drink a large
hold upon the people of the country
until the demand is practically un­
limited.
