I have re -discovered tn,i
old "Whitehouse Cook
Book," editien 1920. I mei
given this gem about 1924-25
and believe me it le quite a
book, (and I needed it). It is
ahnostthree inches thick- so
it has lots to tell you and it
starts out with a chapter in
'CARVING' - not only. the
roast but the animal.
It tells you how to manage
your household especially
the servants, how to prepare
for dinners and receptions;
and Care of the Sick *, right
down to feeding and at-
tending their hurts to a
remedy for boils!
It explains how colds are
'contracted' - not contacted -
as it uses the same word
more titan once; also how to
cure growing pains, leanness
- whatever that is, toothache,
earache, croup - and on and
on.
I also learned - "Persons
troubled with kidney dif-
ficulty should abstain from
sugar and things converted
into sugar in digestion, such
as starchy food and sweet
vegetables. Inflammation of
the 'kidelies" can be treated
by large doses of lime -water.
There is even a remedy for
lockjaw!
The remedy for warts
should put Compound 'W'
out of business - or did it
MAKE their business!
"Wash with common
washing soda, let it dry
without wiping. Repeat often
until the warts have
disappeared". Also, don't
sleep in a draft or go to bed
with cold feet and don't try to
get along in winter without
flannel underclothing!
Those were the days when
you used "Mutton Tallow" to
soften the skin. Now it is
refined and we call it
LANOLIN.
Also there were a great
many uses for good old
RAINWATER. Now only
those in the wide open spaces
know anything about the gift
of RAINWATER! This book
tackles DIPHTHERIA,"
Whooping Cough, Asthma
and FELONS - NOT the ones
we know today.
How time flies - and how
we have progressed! We
might get nose -bleed - but
who gets a cinder in the eye
these days? Or chilblains?
Although we don't take cod
liver oil, now, here is a way
to change the flavor - if ever

coffee - strong - will remove
the odor of onions from the
breath or that asparagus

delion greens and spinach
for complaints of the kid-
neys. Ah -h- finally I found it -
CELERY is a cure for
rheumatism and good for
your nerves too! Tomatoes
for the LIVER; all the onion
and garlic family are
medicinal for circulation and
digestion. And that fellow
who likes a large slice of raw
onion before bedtime knows
it is for INSOMNIA! lust
knew it had to be a big
reason! They can sleep - but
who else does?
Did you know you can
remove ink, wine or fruit
stains by saturating in
tomato juice?
I know, now, why I don't
buy a pineapple - haven't in
years! Reason: The knife
used for peeling a pineapple
should not be used for slicingit, it, as the rind acid will cause
a swollen mouth and sore
lips. Cubans use salt as an
antidote but no-one ever told
me about this. So this is good
advice.
Equal parts of ammonia
and turpentine will take out
dry hard paint from
materials.
Now about that TEA - Tea
brokers and tea tasters
never add milk or sugar to
the tea. "Drink it plain,"
they say, "milk contains
fibrin, albumen or some
other stuff and the tea a
delicate amount of tannin.
Mixing creates a tannate of
fibrin - or leather! Old boots,
old shoes with your tea? Tea
is a cure for a headache -
made without too much
tannic acid. Both tea and
coffee powerfully counteract
the effects of opium and
liquors - but with FOOD.
WOW! Is this book ever
full of good STUFF! It
contains over ,600 pages and
weighs several pounds. I
haven't SEEN it - let alone
ul read it - in many, many
k years!

It has the best and sim-
Pleat recipe for Celery Soup.
Real GOOD. I just happened
to have a head of celery in
the fridge. Well, I talked
myself into making celery
soup - on a very hot day. I
must be off my rocker!
To make this soup you
must have white soup stock
which is made up 'ead of
time and kept for just such
surprises. So, I went ahead
anyway - finally adding a
can of chicken noodle soup to
thicken it. I haven't used any
salt as we seem to get plenty
in everything you eat. I
thought the soup was
delicious. "It's too SALTY,"
was the grumble - wouldn't
you know! So much for the
t
soup!
Well, when if ever do we
get so many beautiful days
and nights with a little rain
add for good measure.
You had a fantastic winter -
now a great summer - and
FALL will be here in a few
minutes. How do we rate all
this pampering? I'm just,
afraid there will be a great
big change enough to set us
all back on our haunches.

Anyway, I'm very thankful
for the beautiful summer -
It's been a Lo .0. N. N. G
time between them.
So 'get out and enjoy it all -
whatever it is. It could be
worse than other years as a
contrast.
So keep working, playing -
and keep happy. I'm trying -
I'm trying!
Love you all, Martha.
