Clever Thief Detector Valuable metal had a habit of dis appearing from a German factory re cently,- so a clever scientific thief de tector was ringed up by the physicists connected with the works. At the end of the day's work each employee was required to remove his knife and other metallic personal possessions from his pockets anil pass through a specially constructed gateway. This was so wired that any concealed metal being taken away illicitly would make itself known by inducing: a current in a de vice that emitted a loud warning sig nal for the guard's benefit. The loss of metal has decreased markedly since the construction of the device. How long we live, not years, but actions - telh Lift Off-No Pain! Doesn't hurt one bit !

So {lobbied tin' wtlil turkeys as t hi?v strutted about by themselves. Billie IVrownie bad come ' to see t horn, and they, were not. afraid of Millie Brownie. Mother Nature had told them that Hill-ie Brownie was coming to visit them. She had told them that F.illie Brownie had been given special per mission by her to understand the lan guage of all her children* and that he liked to hear what her children did, and what were their ways. Then he went back and told these" stories of their ways to the Brownies and Elves and Fairies and Gnomes, Old Witty Witch. Old Mr. Giant, ami the members of the Oaf and Bogey families. Also be setit these stories by his messengers, the Breeze Brothers, so that others would know them too. She had told the turkeys that Billie Brownie would never hurt any one or anything. So they had plucked up their cour age and had sung this song. They were too shy to have a new line every ? tittle, as they knew they would have ; to get used to one before having the ' nerve togo on to another. That was the reason why they sting every line | twice. They greeted Billie Brownie, gobble- i i gobbling in their best fashion, and 1 Billie Brownie greeted them by a beau ! ti fill, low bow. "The ladies it; the family," said old | Mr. Wild Turkey, "are smaller than 1 the gentlemen, nor do they wear such gay plumage. "We live in the woods, but we al j ways like to have running water near our home. A stream is something we j like to have n-ar by. ?'We've heard that people liked to have running water in their houses. ? Well, we like to havn it near at hand.

SELECTION OF STEAM PRESSURE CANNER ? i ? a Three Pressure Cookers That May Be Used for Canning Small Quantities ? A, Pressure Gauge; B, Pet Cock; C. Safety Valve; D, Combined Fet Cock and Safety Valve. (Prepared by the United State!) Department of Agriculture.) A steam pressure canner is considered essential for the canning of all i vegetables, except tomatoes, and for ments, fish and mixtures. Miscellaneous Circular 24, "Time-tables for Home Canning of Fruits and Vegetables," gives directions for preparing the various non-acid vegetables for canning, and the length of time each should be processed. The circular may be obtained by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture at Washington. In selecting a pressure canner the following points should be carefully checked: A pressure canner should be strongly built and the top should be equipped with a pressure gauge, a thermometer, and a safety valve. Since the temperature is a measure of the pressure, it Is ordinarily assumed that one can he interpreted in terms of the other. The pressure gauge, however, does not always indicate the actual temperature within the canner, and It is better to have both a gauge and a thermometer, for one then serves to check the accuracy of the other. In size, a pressure canner should be suited to the kind of containers and the probable number to be handled at one time. In case the winner must be lifted on and off the stove during canning, It Is also important that It should not be too heavy. In using the pressure canner, wait until steam flows from the pet corw before closing; otherwise tlie pressure Is no Indication of the temperature. Commence to count time when the pressure reaches the desired point, not be fore. ? Alll ? ^ ?**? ? I WASHSTAND HANDY IN GIRL'S ROOM Problem Solved by Young Virginia Club Girl. (Prepared by the ITnlted Stales Department of Agriculture.) In any home whore there is no run ning water on the second floor It be comes necessary to have a basin, pitcher, slop jar, soap dish and holder for the toothbrush somewhere in the bedroom. These useful furnishings do not, however, add to the appearance of the room, and when one has no washstaiid of the usual type it is hard to know just what to do with them. A little fifteen-year-old club girl in Vir ginia. Kuby Ring. solved her problem in Mich a successful and inexpensive 1 Washstand Made by a Virginia Club Girl. way that the idea eoiild.be carried out by anyone. She built her own stand, to begin with, out of a packing box, i some odd lumber for legs, and a 1(K cent towel bar. Then she made a curtain for the front of the stand out of unbleached muslin, with yellow butterfly appliques, and a runner to go over the top, botli tinished with a buttonholed edge in black. This was done as part of her sewing club work. Behind the curtain most of the unat j tractive washing paraphernalia was ! Concealed. The pictures were taken i by the I'nited States Department of I Agriculture. Egg Dressing for Slaw Epecially Acceptable Slaw, or raw shredded cabbage, either hot or cold, is usually made with a cooked dressing that does not contain oil, and hence for those who dislike the flavor of oil, it is especially acceptable. When eggs are plentiful and may be used freely, slaw with egg dressing is not extravagant. The egg yolks contribute iron, fat, and other valuable constituents to the dI5t. This recipe is recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture. Egg Dressing for Hot Slaw. 2 eggs juice, or % tea 4 tablespoonfuls spoonful celery water or cab- seed bage stock 1 teaspoonful salt 3 tablespoonfuls Few specks dry vinegar, or to mustard taste Vz medium head 2 tablespoonfuls cabbage (about shredded green 1 quart) pepper or 1 tea- 1 t a b 1 e spoonful spoonful onidn sugar Heat eggs well, add salt, sugar, mus tard and water or stock; cook in double boiler until it coats the edge of the spoon, thickening like a soft cus tard; then add the vinegar, and pour while still very hot over the shredded raw. cabbage. Let stand a few mo ments to blend flavor of dressing with cabbage. This may be found even bet ter on the second day than on the lirst. \ DURABLE TOOLS ARE BEST FOR CLEANING ? .*: ' w . .? - . , I Implements Needed for Keeping House in Order. (Prepared by the United Slates Department of Agriculture.) Did you ever count up the various tools ? brushes, brooms, mops ami so on ? that are desirable to keep the av erage house In good condition, to say nothing of the special implements that may be wanted at houseeleanlng time? Of course no onfc person is likely to have a complete set of such tools, nor would the requirements of one home be quite the same as those of another, but an effort should be made to have those which apply to one's chief needs. Well-made, durable tools should he chosen, and they should.be kept in | good condition and stored in an order ly way in a convenient, well-ventilated | closet. Almost all cleaning implements | can be hung up ->r sot on frames de i vised for keeping them olT the lloor. In j buying tools one must know tliat each will be used often enough to justify! the cost, tlmt no partic ular tools will require too-much care, that each really saves time ami energy, or that certain ones will make some disagreeable task : less unpleasant. The bureau of home economics of' the t'nited Slates ivpartment of Agri culture has made the following list of suggested -tools from anionic which the housekeeper may choose according to her needs: Among brooms and brushes: A corn broom for carpets and rough surfaces, such as concrete, brick and stone. A soft-hair brush for smooth tloors and lloor coverings, such as wood,' tile, lin oleum, oilcloth and cork carpeting. A wall brush of lamb's wool >>r loops of soft cotton twine or soft bristles. A bag of cotton llannel slipped over the broom may take the place of a wall , brush. A weighted brush with short ; bristles for polishing waxed flours. , Under no circumstances should this brush he allowed to become oily, but it j may also be used in polishing oiled j floors if carefully covered with a piece of woolen carpet, heavy llannel or bur- j lap. A whisk broom for general use. j Scrub brushes of various sizes for : cleaning unfinished wood, sinks, etc. ' A long-handled scrub brush will be j found especially convenient for tloors. Paint brushes or special brushes of various shapes and sizes for uphol- ( story, reed furniture and carved s*ur- ; faces. A radiator brush, for cleaning between pipes. A refrigerator brush, ^ with a flexible wlreMn'".?, for c!e^: ( ing the drain pipe. Long-handled , spiral brush or tongs and prepared soap paper, for cleaning water closets. 1 Both wet and dry mops will be ! needed. The wet mop is for tloors that are to be washed with water. A con- . venient kind has soft, loosely woven ? cloth fastened to the handle by a tlat ; metal clasp. A mop wringer fastened to a pail saves the worker from much stooping, keeps the hands from the water and removes more water from the cloth than would be possible by hand wringing. The dry mop may be untreated or oiled. In the latter case It holds the dust better and renews the finish on painted, varnished or sheb lacked floors, but should not be used on waxed surfaces. The dustpan should have a firm edge coming in direct contact with the floor and be shaped on the handle side so as to keep the dirt from falling out. A long-handled dustpan does away with some stooping and is considered con- j venient by many. Dusters should be soft and should not shed lint or ravelings. If dampened or oiled, they hold the dust better. Silk j and chamois are excellent for use on highly polished surfaces. Cotton waste : and paper are good substitutes for j dusteloths in cleaning dirty, greasy | surfaces. Feather dusters should not be used, for they scatter but do not remove dirt. J\.
