RECIPES WITH RICE
E are very apt in Hongkong
WE to associate rice with puddings
and curries, but there are many delightful, tasty-and economical-dishes with rice as a foundation. Rice is simple, to cook, and the recipes which follow are excellent as light lunchcom dishes or as entrees.
With Sausages and Peas

Then add b. of rice- preferably Patna rlee-stir and cook, for a few minutes, then add gradually about 14 pint of boiling stock, season with salt and pepper, cover the pan and simmer, turning the rive occasion- ally, for about 30 minutes.

When Linen
Develops Mildew
INEN suits are the vogue, and a very pleasing vogue too. But sometimes a sort of ironmould appears on the fabric-really mildew, a "vegetable" growth or mould which develops on linen under damp, warm conditions.
These stains can be quickly taken out by bleaching methods, but treat- ment differs for white and coloured linens. This is what you should do:
White or Natural
For white or natural linens bleach with a solution of Javelle water (chloride of time), which can be purchased ready mixed. Full Instructions are given with the chemical, which is sold by most grocers and general
stores.
Coloured
The article must be evenly wet when it is placed in the solution for len suit, many-coloured treatment, and afterwards washed out thoroughly, or steeped in an acid šilk blouse. Jacket: shoulders stitch-solution to counteract the work of the chemical in the Abres. A solution ed in rather milltary form; plain close, of vinegar (1 dessertspoonful to 8 of water), would be suitable. sleeves with stitched-on cuffs; buttons cord (like old- covered in silk fashioned curtain pullers). Blouse: wavy patterned silk, collar outline following wave in silk. Tuck-in.
Large black tecln straw, with crown alightly lifted (like opening box) at one site. Big quill looks as though I stays on by balance.
For coloured linens wash the article, then make up a paste of equal quantities of french chalk. Fuller's earth and castile soap, with cold water, and spread it over the stains, leaving the material in the sun to dry.
When dried, rub off the paste, when the stains should have disappeared and been drawn out into the powdered deposit,
Repeat the treatment if necessary.

UNTHINKABLE!
Of course you would not give your baby a cigar or adult food because you know babies require special care and treatment. That is why you spend so much time in the preparation of his special food. Yer when baby's system is upset and he is troubled with colic, diarrhea, sour stomach, indigestion or constipation, are you careful to use only medicine that has been made especially for him? Castoria is the ideal remedy for your child because it has been pre- pared especially for infants and children. It is mild, pleasant- tasting and easy to take. The next time your baby is upset by some simple child ailment, use Cas- toria, safe for even the newborn infant.

FOR ME.............I want bright teeth and healthy gums
An ordinary dentifrice won't do a complete job. It may clean teeth efficiently, but that's only half the job. FORHAN'S gives complete protection, because it alone contains Dr. Forhan's famous Astringent, waci by dentists everywhere in the treatment of Pyorrhea and other gum diseases.
Pyorrhea infects 4 out of 5 people over 40. It makes gums soft, spongy, endangers teeth; For han's with its two-way protection against tooth decay and gum infection, gives you the beauty of a Bashing smile, the firraness of sound gums, the assurance of a healthy mouth. Use Forhan's regularly. Buy a tube today!
