A Cup of Cocoa. 
The excellent preparations of cocoa on 
the market are any of them made drink¬ 
able by merely putting a spoonful in a 
cup, pouring boiling water over it, and 
adding milk and sugar. It is a surprise 
to find how many people habitually use 
it that way, when a little more care in the 
6280 Misses Coat and Skirt Costume, 
12 to 10 years. 
preparation is so worth while. All trav¬ 
elers praise the cups of hot chocolate one 
may buy anywhere on the Continent; safe 
to say none is prepared in our careless, 
ready-to-use fashion. Boiling and a little 
arrowroot are in the secret of the Euro¬ 
pean excellence of the drink. Try making 
cocoa in this manner: Put as much sugar 
as cocoa in an enameled saucepan, and add 
a little cornstarch, say a saltspoonful for 
each cup, mix these dry. Pour boiling 
water over, a little at first stirred smooth, 
then as much as will be needed for half 
the quantity of cocoa. Let the whole bub¬ 
ble and boil for five minutes. Finally add 
as much milk as will make the right 
amount, and unless the effects of scalded 
milk are desired, do not let it boil again, 
but merely become steaming hot. Have 
the chocolate pot hot, pour in the cocoa 
and serve. prudence primrose. 
The Rural Patterns. 
A very useful jacket suit for a young 
girl is shown in No. 5280. suitable either 
for cloth or Summer wash goods, such 
as linen or pique. The suit consists of 
the coat and the skirt. The coat is made

with the fronts and back that are fitted by 
means of shoulder and under-arm seams 
and is finished with a flat collar and is 
closed by means of buttons and button- 
ioles worked in the fly. The sleeves are 
in coat style but generously full at the 
shoulders and finished with roll-over flare

16 years of age; price 10 cents. 
Nothing takes the place of the sailor 
suit for girls of 14 and under. This one 
is made of blue serge with a shield of 
white and trimming of blue braid, but 
will be found an excellent model for linen, 
chambray and the like. The little cos¬ 
tume is nuPle with the blouse and the 
skirt, which are quite separate. The 
blouse is drawn on over the head and is 
confined at the waist line by means of 
elastic inserted in a hem. The shield is 
separate and attached to it beneath the 
collar. The skirt is five gored and is 
joined to a belt at the upper edge. The

Delicious Lemon Pie. —Beat one cup 
sugar, three tablespoons of flour, the 
yolks of two eggs, piece of butter size of 
a walnut, to a cream. Add the grated 
rind and juice of a lemon, then one cup 
of milk, gradually. Then fold in the 
whites of the eggs beaten to a froth. Bake 
in one crust. l. a. case. 
Soft Soap. —One cake of soap cut very 
fine; three quarts of water; two table¬ 
spoonfuls borax. Boil 30 minutes, stir 
while boiling. When cool add one-half 
cup naphtha. When I make it I use my 
small pieces of soap. It can be made just 
as good without the naphtha. This is 
excellent for laundry and cleaning pur¬ 
poses. _ K. H. 
A man must be cheered on and encour¬ 
aged when his shoes hurt, when his appe¬ 
tite is poor, and upon dozens of occasions 
during the day, and his wife must do the 
cheering. The average wife is kept so 
busy cheering her husband on, that she 
never has time for the blues herself.—

Some physicians will ques¬ 
tion the value of raw cod 
liver oil in wasting diseases, 
but they won’t question the 
value of Scott's Emulsion. 
Scott’s Emulsion is more 
than cod liver oil. It’s half 
digested before the patient 
gets it. Raw cod liver oil is 
a severe tax on the stomach 
of even a healthy person. 
Scott’s Emulsion contains 
glycerine and the valuable 
hypophosphites of lime and 
soda. There’s food in these 
for bone, muscle and tissue. 
Raw cod liver oil offers no 
such combination.
