When the hot days come upon us the appetite craves something cool and refreshing and fruit juices in suitable combination, slightly sweet- ened and .diluted, are best suited to strengthen and refresh the inner man —or woman --or child. Lemons, oranges, fresh pineapples, Hines, all fresh summer fruits and berries, spices, extracts, pure water, ginger ale and carbonated water are useful ingredients. In serving summer drinks at home make them attractive by serving them, in tall, well -polished glasses garnished with a slice of fruiton the edge of the glass or a few bright cherries or e sprig of mint in the top of each glass. Fruit Lemonade -2 lemons, 1 orange, 1 quart water, 4 slices pine- apple, % cup sugar, ice, Squeeze the juice from the lemons and half the orange into a bowl. Add the sugar and stir well, then add the water and stir until the sugar is all dissolved. Slice the remaining half of the orange into quarter -inch slices, cut the pineapple slices into quarters and set the bowl into a cold place until ready to serve. Plain lemonade is made the same way, omitting the other fruits. Iced Tea -4 level teaspoons tea, 1 quart., boiling water, 4 slices lemon, ice. Pour boiling water over the tea, cover . closely and let stand to steep about three minutes. Then pour off the tea from the leaves and let stand until cold. For serving, add cracked ice and a slice of lemon to each glass and let each person sweeten the tea to taste. Tall glasses are best for iced tea in order to hold the ice, Fruit Punch -2 quarts water, 4 cups sugar, 8 cups pineapple, 1 cup raspberry syrup. 1 cup lemon juice, 2 cups orange juice, 1 cup preserved cherries. Boil the water, sugar and the chop- ped :pineapple together for twenty minutes, then add the other ingredi- ents and chill, When ready to serve, dilute with ice water and serve with cracked ice. Orange Egg Shake., -Juice of 1. orange, 1 fresh egg, 2 teaspoons sugar, small piece ice, Put the orange juice, whole egg and the sugar in a deep bowl and beat thoroughly with an egg beater until, all Is well blended. Pour into a tall glass and serve at once. Very nour- ishing with lunch or between meals. An excellent drink for convalescents. MapleCream-4 tablespoons of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of sweet cream, ginger ale. Put the maple syrup and cream into a glass.' Pour in the ice cold ginger ale to nearly fill the glass. Beat hard with a spoon and serve. Iced Grape Juice --1 quart grape juice, 1 cup sugar, Look over the grapes and discard all imperfect ones, Wash well and cook until the seeds and the skins separate easily. Press the grape pulp through a jelly bag. Add the sugar to the juice and boil for twenty min- utes. Seal in bottles. To serve, pour into glasses and add cracked ice, or keep 3n very cold place if no ice is available.

You can convert a miscellaneous group of fibre or reed furniture into a good-looking set for the sun parlor or a set to be used later on the ver- andah. A chair or table that has lost. its freshness through use on the ver- andah may be made attractive enough for a bedroom or living room. Paint them old ivory, choosing a light, medium or dark finish, First see that your chair or table is free from dust. A good brushing is usually enough. The hose may be turned on reed furniture, but it should be thoroughly dry before you begin to paint. Next give the piece of furniture a coat of fiat white paint and allow it to dry for several days at least, Then give it a coat of white enamel and allow this to dry for at least three days. A week is better. If you want the light or yellowish old ivory finish get a pound of chrome yellow and mix with turpentine. Paint the piece of furniture all over with this.

"Going on a sewing trip," I replied. She looked puzzled until I opened the suitcase and revealed the goods and trimmings for a dress. In the wide straps 'tacked with small up- holstery tacks to the inside of the lid were patterns, scissors and other things needed in sewing. Also tacked to the lid were little cushions for pins and needles. At each end of the suit- case were pockets for thread, thimble., buttons, and so on. "Such a splendid idea," said my friend. "The lid keeps out the dust, and you have everything together." It certainly does Pave labor hunting for things when I go to sew.

Whatever the cause, it was such a moment that had come to Dan Morgan and his wife. It had come to them both as -a matter that must be faced on this particular morning. "There's nothin' in it, Annie—I just made up my mind to that. I might clean up this year; but in the long run, there's nothin' in it." "Not a thing," answered hiswife, and the conviction in their voices showed that they had traveled the same road to the same' end. Dan Morganmade his living as his father had before him, andhe knew nothing else. Every year he leased a big tract of land and sowed it to wheat, mortgaging the crop to pay for harvesting. He himself worked odorous air that blew in from the along with the then he hired, while his south.

Catching his hand, she gave it a happy 'little squeeze. "I'11 go find out if they'll stay." Already they felt a kinship with any one from the city. Already they were of them, their own people. With a grace and confidence born of the last hour, Mrs. •Morgan extended the invitation to the fashionably clad couple in the big touring car that chugged outside the front gate. Be- cause of her winning smile,: and be- cause they were hungry and in no hurry, they accepted In the same spirit. They followed theirhostess down the 'front walk, which was bordered with early California roses. "How beautiful it is!" they cried almost in the same. breath, and they drew back their heads to draw in the for the next uncertain winter, vious eyes that held the memory of A SEASONABLE MODEL.

Serve by Fostering Interest .. in Aviation. Can the instinct for aerial navtp* tion become implanted in a nation through the operation of a carefully calculated official program? The chiefs of the British Air Ministry believe it can,. and to this end announce the de- tails of plans by which they hope h make the Britielt an alrfaring as well as a seafaring race. Briefly, the Air Ministry intends to encourage the formation of local fly- ing clubs, donating not only the equip- ment butalso expert technical advice. They hope that by next •spring in hue deeds of English cities, it will be pos- sible for members of air clubs to take • Out light machines for spins with about as little formality as is now re. (Mired for the "hiring of bicycles, The idea rises Prom the experiments in moto•rless gliding, begun on a large scale in 1922. 'P•bo results obtained that year led to competition the fol- lowing year for light planes with tiny engines -ordinary motorcycle engines frequently being utilized with slight,_. Alteration. At Lympne, in September the final stage will be tackled --the problem 01 producing light and oheap Planes capable of carrying two persona each, An instructor and a pupil. Cost Put at $1,500 Each The experts believe several types of such machines will be found practic- able, and that it will be possible to turn then, out for about $1,600 each, In anticipation of this being realized, the Air Ministry has approached muni- cipalities, Local ceuucils and sporting bodies with a view to enlisting their co-operation. As the plans uow stand each club will be provided with three two-seater and two -single -seater planes, together with the necessary spares and funds for plane maintenance, Each club member would hove to subscribe some- thing;a sum probably not exceeding the average golf club dues, and pay further fees, similar to golfing green fees, for actual use of the planes and upkeep of the landing grounds. However, as these small machines can land in small fields, the latter item would not be a serious one, The Air Ministry realizes there would be a -cer- tain amount of air "Joy riding," but would stipulate the holding of compe- titions among the various clubs at Ger- Min times during the year, In providing a large number of men with the knowledge of at least the fundamentals of flying the Air Minis- try obviously would he creating an ex- tremely valuable reserve, on which It could draw in the event, of war. ,There is tb e farther advantage that the mem- bers of the local flying clubs would in no sense be members of military or- ganizations. They would be frac' of the military discipline observed by members et the militia, but at the sante time they would have every incentive to become Proficient as pilots. In the near future, however, it is the development of com- mercial flying far which promoter's of the scheme have the highest expecta- tious. The light planes which the net. Min- istry will lassie will be almost as safe In operation as motorcycles. Even in the event of engine trouble the Lyin- pue trials alreardy have proved that these planes glide gently to earllo In- stead of doing a erose dive suds as ac- counts for so many catastrophes to the larger machines. To Reduce Risks. With the risks of forced landings largely eliminated, the chief danger to the pilots of the light planes would bo the risk of collisions and, although the governmentintends to relax its licensing restrictions', which at present retard the development of popular flying. certain safety rules will con-. time to be rigidly enforced, Arithmetic for the Stout.
