"They must be treated very
much. like a baby, said Mrs.
Charles--• Harris, Gilley street,
when asked how she grew such
beautiful plants covered with
flowers, "They do not like a
draft; they do not like to be wet
all the time; they like plenty of
light, but not direct sunlight,"
she said. -

"A LITTLE NEGLECT

....(Author's Name Below
Nature protects our
body by enclosing most
all in our'skin. As long
as the skits is unbroken,
infectious germs are kept
out.
Therefore, it is not wise
to neglee any scratch,
cuts, or skin abrasions
which open the door to
great mischief. 'Apply
first aid as soon as pos-
sible.
Right now is a good
time to check your sup-
ply of first aid needs and
to get one' of the new
powerful antiseptics that
are so. safe and depend-
able. Of course, unless
your accident is a t'rivi'al

street,another African t
loverflan iele
says temperature is line
portant to the successful growing
of violets, When she had a small
register placed in her living
room floor in front of a window
last winter for her own comfort,
her viplets near it thrived and
seemed to receive more benefit
than she herself.
The best temperature for these
plants is from 70 to 72 degrees;
if the temperature drops. below
60 degrees, growth is checked
and the plant gradually dies
away; if it is over 75, the plants
are harmed. A scheme for grow-
ing then. under fluorescent lights
is in the a ,perimental stage .and
is proving satisfactory.
The African violet did cone
from Eastern tropical Africa
where it was growing in the
shade of • trees .among limestone
and granite. It was discovered
by Baron Walther Von Saint Paul
and was first flowered under cul-
tivation in 1893 r The botanists.
say it is not really a violet.

The spicy fragrance of pickles
in the making not, only fills the
kitchens these days but finds its
way into the street to tease- the
appetite of passers-by. Many a
food has come and gone during
the course of human411istory but
the fondness for pickles has
steadily persisted. '
Here is a spicy recipe given
us by Miss .Verna Coates which
we can vouch for and is a fa-
vorite of the 'boss" of our house.
Sweet Tomato Pickle
(Miss Verna Coates)
24 green tomatoes, cut and let
stand in salt over night;
drain in the morning and
add •
1Z apples, chopped ,
12 onions, chopped.
5 cups sugar •
21 cups vinegar
1 teaspoon each of cinnamon,
allspice, cloves, tumeric,
and mustard seed;

pinch of cayenne pepper if
desired.
Boil all together until the con

Have you tried spiced crab

roast chicken or turkey?. It's
delicious.,
