he watched her flitting around

“You'll soon be up." she smiled as
she stopped in her work of nrrang»

heard Dr. Muxton say he might let
you sit up a few minutes tomorrow
if you have a good night and don't

"That will be great, Miss Taylor.
I'll be glad to get my clothes on
again but even that has its draw-

Elizabeth Taylor laughed. “Draw-

Most of them have fits of Joy at the

"1 know. but we can't always

worse things than being sick in u

Miss Taylor looked at him in
amazement. "You mean you'd rather
be sick’than well?" sho asked. her
eyes wide with astonishment.
“Now—not exactly that. That
would be rather an exaggerated
I'm. bordering on that. and if you
look at me once more with that ab-

your big blue eyes drilling through

you'd wait until I get fixed up be-

Miss Taylor obeyed;
“Yet. not a minute ago you weren't

“That's true. too. I'm not. Oh. if
you only understood." There was
real distress in his tones. and Ellis-
beth stopped her teasing.
“Well. I'm sorry. I wish I could
do something to help you."
"No one can. I'm afraid." _
A silence fell between them.
“Want to tell me?” she invited‘at

he was wrong. they were more hose

turned back to their desks and went
on as if nothing had happened.
That was the end of the mutiny.

Miss Taylor about it that evening
she was radient with joy. ’
“You're an awfully clever little

“What is it?” she asked. "Maybe
I can help solve it. too." ‘
"I want to know whether you'd

what'is your preferred method?"
A quick flush spread over her
face. but she was soon herself again.
and a. flash of mischief came into

"You might try a little gentle

If You Make ice Ore-m
If you make ice cream. chop the .
ice very fine if you want it to freeze
qfickly. For another thing. after
the freezer is packed. place it in the
refrigerator. if there is room. This
will make possible and necessary the
use of less ice. For a third thing.
remember that if all the ingredients
of the ice cream are prepared t-e-
fore-hand and chilled thoroughly
the mixture will freeze more
quickly. ‘
When Kettles Burn
If sometimes things burn in pots
and kettles. fill the receptacle with
cold water and let it stand for
awhile. Then gently remove what-
ever,can be removed without diffi-
culty. Don‘t scrape and scour. Now
fill the dish part “full of cold water
and add a lump of washing soda and
bring to the boiling point. Usually
this treatment frees the dish of most
of the burn without wearing its
surface as scouring does.
Whon You Pool Oranges
If you wish to peel oranges for
slicing or for cutting up for salads.
cover them first with boiling water
and let them stand for five minutes.
Then drain off the water. “'hen you
remove the skin the tough. bitter
white skin will all come off with
the yellow and the oranges will be
much better for slicing or cutting
up. Chill them thoroughly.
If You Feel Onions
After peeling onions. rub on
salt
, the hands and wash them thorough-
ly in cold water. Don‘t use soap or
hot water, as this emphasizes the
onion" odor on the skin. The salt
and cold water-remove most of it.

A surprisingly simple yet remark-
ably ingenious system of controlling
congested city traffic automatically
has been suggested by Laureates M.
Cocksday in Popular Radio. .
He proposes um “automatictrsfuc

would string an ordinary insulated

a radio signal of a. certain frequency
for north and south traffic: another

These signals would actuate relay
equipment which would light green
or yellow lights on the dash of every
automobile in the city. One signal
would light thel'gr‘een lights; the
other the yellow. _
Thus all the traffic in the city
could be regulated by a single set of
cables.
"On a given signal." says Mr.‘
Cockadsy. “every automobile in the:
v'vhole city would show a small green f
light on its dash. Those that were'
moving north and south would stop.
