KEEPING CHILDEEN BUSY 
ELIZABETH RADWAY 
It does not always take expensive 
playthings to keep children amused and 
happy. They will play for hours with a 
bowl of thorn apples and a handful of 
toothpicks. They can make many dif¬ 
ferent queer animals and fantastic ob¬ 
jects of whirligigs with them. 
Then there is paraffine. A lump of 
that as large as an egg and warmed so 
that it is pliable will amuse many chil¬ 
dren. They can model animals or birds 
or make marbles with it. They can 
model fruit or furniture. Paraffine 
which has been used on fruit or jelly 
will do just as well as new. 
In season, horse chestnuts, gathered 
and stored and brought forth as a sur¬ 
prise, will work wonders with a child 
who doesn’t know what to do. They 
can be rolled on the floor, poured from 
dish to dish to hear the rattle, or hidden 
by mother and found by the youngsters. 
A box of cards, saved from time to 
time, is a good thing to amuse most 
children. These cards can be cut from 
raisin boxes, cocoanut boxes, butter car¬ 
tons and everywhere a bright, pretty 
picture is found that would otherwise 
be wasted. 
Last, but not least, there is helping 
mother or father. Many steps can be 
saved the parent by the child and all 
small children, if asked and thanked, 
like to carry kindling-wood and chips 
or to do other small chores. 
ABOUT OUB NEW CATALOGUE 
i The wise home dressmaker doesn’t 
I choose her patterns at random. She 
thinks over her needs well in advance, 
studies a good pattern catalogue and 
then sends for enough designs to see 
her through the entire bout of spring 
sewing. 
Our spring catalogue is ready. The 
styles are new and smart; every one 
is easy to make and full directions are 
given on each pattern. Then, to6, many 
of the designs are so adaptable that not 
heart-shaped cutter. If you have no 
cutter of this shape make a paper pat¬ 
tern a little larger than you wish the 
cookies to be, as the dough shrinks in 
baking. Place this on your dough and 
cut around the pattern with a pointed 
knife, repeating until the dough is used. 
Sprinkle each cookie with red sugar 
and place in a pan lightly dredged with 
flour to bake until the cut edges are a 
delicate brown. To color sugar use the 
coarse granulated kind. Pour a few 
drops of red color—cochineal, or the 
coal-tar dye that is bought at the stores 
—on the sugar, rubbing with a spoon 
until evenly colored. Dry with a very 
moderate heat. These novel cookies are 
much admired at a Valentine tea or 
party, and a box of them in a gay box 
or basket is a welcomed gift.— Etta 
Boies Rankin. 
NUTS GOOD AND CHEAP FOOD 
Nuts are valuable food, say the 
specialists at the School of Home Eco¬ 
nomics at Cornell. They are cheap 
when it is considered that they are a 
concentrated food, high in protein and 
fat, and a valuable source of energy. 
Contrary to the usual idea, nuts are 
easily and fairly completely,digested if 
well masticated and eaten as a part of 
the regular, meal, not after or between 
complete meals. 
Most nuts are edible ra\v, except the 
chestnut, which contains so much starch 
that cooking is desirable. The flavor 
of almonds and peanuts is improved 
by roasting. 
On account of their high protein , 
value, nuts may be used as the main | 
dish. A salad may be made a princi¬ 
pal dish by the addition of nuts. 
Peanut loaf is a satifactory meat 
substitute. A recipe follows: 1 cup 
ground peanuts, 1 cup bread crumbs, 2 
cups boiled rice, 14 cup tomatoes, 1 egg, 
2 tablespoons chopped onion, .salt, pep¬ 
per, mix, mold into a loaf, and bake 
30 minutes. 
I received the dress and bathrobe, 
and am very much pleased with them, 
80 I am going to order two more bath¬ 
robes. I hope these will be just as 
pretty as the one I just received.— 
Mrs. C. G., New Jersey.
