In Portland
George Connor and Frank
Lines spent Friday of last week
in Portland on business.
Jewett Bush tells this one. The
Bvshes have two pet Boston Ter­
riers that fcpend a good deal of
time in their masters’ apartment
and have the run of the place
with but very few restrictions.
But there is one restriction that
both dogs know, yet dislike ex­
tremely, so Jewett says. In re­
cent weeks Mr. and Mrs. Bush
have been away for a day on
several different occasions. Upon
returning after the first time
away, the dogs were found to
have been sleeping on the settee.
A switching was the punishment
to convince the dogs that such
was not the thing to do. After
returning from the second day
away the dogs were found sleep­
ing at the foot of the settee but
the settee was warm, indicating
that they had been sleeping there.
Another switching followed. Aft­
er the third trip, the dogs were
found blowing on the seftee to
cool it off. . .

the biscuits, replace two of the
tablespoons of fat with four of
peanut butter; in cupcakes use
half of the fat called for in the
recipe and make up the differ­
ence with peanut butter; and for
drop cookies, use the peanut but­
ter as a substitute for all the fat.

KNOW YOUR RHUBARB
Skins of rhubarb and cranber­
ries should be left on in prepar­
ing them. Raw cranberries may
be ground with apples and an
orange, and sugared well, to
make a good salad.
Rhubarb leaves are1 one of the
few exceptions to the rule, “Eat
it all.” They are not edible. All
of the rhubarb stalk, especially
the skin, is edible. The younger
and fresher the stalks, the more
palatable rhubarb is.
It’s a wise policy at
any time. Repair those
shoes, save money and
materials for war, too.

“Sorry Judge, my shipment of suspenders
still hasn’t come in. Some articles are mighty
scarce these days. I don’t get anywhere
near as much as I could sell.”
“With the war going on, Frank, we’ve got
to expect those things. It's true of luxuries
just as it is of necessities. Take whiskey,
for example. There’s a real shortage in that.
It's to be expected when you realize there
hasn’t been a drop of it distilled in this
country since way back in October, 1942.
“The only thing distillers have been making
during that time is war-alcohol for the
Government. So, I wasn’t surprised a bit
to read how bootlegging and black markets
have sprung up around the country as a
resultof the dwindling supply. Our 13 years
of prohibition proved that if folks can’t get
legal whiskey, they’ll get illicit whiskey. Sure
hope the shortage doesn’t last too long. I’d
hate to see this country turned over to the
bootleggers again.”
