One Mother Says: If a youngster pushes any ob- struction up the nose, never try to poke it out, as you will only push it up farther. Compress one side of the nose while the child blows hard on the other side. If this does not bring the object out, let the cinia smell a little pepper. This - will cause a good sneeze and will usaal- ly dislodge the obstructiof." If it falls, however, the next step is to take the child at once to the doc- tor, TWO NEW CIRCLES OF THE KING'S DAUG Two juvenile cirelés of The King's Daugliters have been 'organized re- éently by Mrs. M.

M.: "Kindly tell me how Grape Jelly can be made with gela- tine for use as a desse Also give recipe for Baked Beans made with molasses." Answer: In using gelatine it is not necessary to have a recipe if one just remembers. that one tablespoon of the gelatine will stiffen one pint of any kind of "liquid. But here is "just How" to make the grape jelly: Take a glass of grape jelly (such as Sne buys in the stores) and add to "Soi boiling water to make one int of liquid. Now soften one DE on of ~granujated gelatine with a very little cold' watér, and add this to the grapé-liquid (which you have heated to the boiling point) [Stir a few minutes, en add sugar if necessary (to - suit individaa) taste) and strain through +a flne- meshed sieve into a wet mold, to be set in a cold place to stiffen. At mealtime, sink the mold up to its rim in boiling water for just an 4 instant, so as ta loosen the jelly and enable it to be turned out of the mold easily. .Baked Beans with Molasses: Soak one quart of pea beans overnight in cold water to cover. In the morning wash them well and parboil them with one-half teaspoon of soda in boiling water to cover; when they are almost tender, drain off mest of the water and put the beans into a baking dish. Mix into them one- half cup df bacon drippings, a pinch of mustard, one tablespoon of salt, one-fourth teaspoon of black pep- per, one-fourth, cup of Barbadoes molasses, two tablespoons-of minced raw onion, and a very little canned tomafo if liked. Take one-half pound of salt pork (which has been previously bolled by itself in a sauce- pan for an hour) and score this into little: squares on one side; sink it into the baking dish, in the middle of the beans. Put a cover on the dish and bake for six hours in a moderate oven, adding small quan- tities of hot water during the last two hours if it becomes too dry.

Not long ago a newspaper woman', in speaking of her day's work tb some friends, remarked 'that she had 'been at an isolation hospital, getting what is called in journalistic par ldnce, ** a story." There were excla- mationg of horror from some of the listeners, and a distinct drawing away from"her on the part -of others. But the newspaper woman laughed. "Why," she said, "you and I and all of us are in far more danger every day of our lives, as we go about where £11 sorts of diseases are stalk- ing round, without any precautions being taken, than I was at the hos- pital, where there is every safeguard against infection." A few days later one of her audience was in a large butcher shop, where all sorts of meats are 'displayed, when a girl, very evidently tar goné in tuberculo- le, came in, and going up to the counter, asked in a husky voice for a piece of meat, As she did so she coughed unrestrainedly over the rest of the exposed meat, without taking the precaution of putting either hand OF handkerchief to hér mouth, This sort of thing is being dupl cated all over fhe coumtry. Much has been done.dn the way of teach- ing people - to take precautionary measures, but 4 very great deal re- maing to be dome. Unfortunately, carelesstiess is to "be found more often in the rural sections than in the cities, and ibis fact accounts, {n large measure, for the returns show- ing that the death rate from tuber- culosis is higher (in propertion to population) in the country than In the cities.
