We do net know when it was written but history tells us that from medieval times plums and puddings have been associated. The oldest recipe to be found is for a sort of porridge which actually demanded plums inSLead of the fruits of the present-day which have replaced everything but the name. From Christmas Day to Twelfth Night plum pudding was customarily served each day. It was supposed to be unâ€" lucky to eat it before December 25. but good fortune was guaranteed if pudding ’were eaten daily for the following 12 days. Neighbours and friends exchanged puddings perchance for variety, but also to insure special good fortune for the year. To-day nothing is more appreciated for a Christmas remembrance than a share from the results of an old family recipe for Christmas pudding Both Syracuse and Boston are appre- ciated contributors to my Christmas dinner. Last year the jury disagreed as to which deserved the prize. While practically all puddings have sugar or molasses. or the inclusion of nuts will produce differences in rich- néss and flavour. Both Scotch and Ger- man recipes call for grated carrots as well as fruit. English recipes some- times call for brandy. rum or sherry as part, of the liquid.

Large puddings should be steamed from five to six hours; smaller puddings demand about an hour's less time. When they are finished covers should be removed at once, but may be returned after the puddings are cold. They may then be reheated from half an hour to an hour before serving time. Now just a word about sauces. fully as important as the pudding itself. Hard sauce. liberally flaVOured with brandy or rum, or a rich creamy sauce may be used.

I For first aid purposes in the home the brew of tea should be of the “lum- berjack" variety produced by boiling a handful of tea. in a pan of water for a few minutes. Strips of linen may be sterilized by boiling them at the same time. then lifted out. and allowed to drip until cooled to body temperature be- fore being applied to the burn." Dr. Donald R. Wells. in the Journal of the American Medical Association, suggests immersing a badly-burned pa- tient in a tub filled with warm tannic acid solutionâ€"using enough tannic acid powder to give it a. good muddy colour. Fresh water is run in and the solution drained out continuously and more tannic acid is added from time to time. The solution softens. loosens. and raises the destroyed tissue. For slight or medium burns spraying paraffin over the burn with a fine sprayer or painting it on with a fine brush is now being used to a considerabl extent. However. using a strong brew of tea is the best and simplest home treat- ment of burns. "It is not generally recognized that1 strong tea was an old wife's method of! creating burns and scalds in Scotland' in generations past.” Meeting This Evening of Schubert Choral Society Dr. Stewart; Middleton. Edinburghl reports: “Some years ago I was able to, treat alternate cases of a series of fairly severe scalds in children with ”Lannie, acid and tea. So far as results were] concerned there was no difference be», tween the two. I Dr. Stewart; Middleton reports: “Some years ago treat alternate cases of a : severe scalds in children acid and tea. So far as A level teaspoonful of tannic acid to 20 teaspoonfuls of water gives the 5 per cent. solution. Two or three years ago it was report. ed in the Journal of the American Medical Association that if tannic acid were not available the use of strong ea would do equally well; tea is avail- able in practically every household. Home' Treatment of Burns I For years every first aid kit carriedi a bottle or tube of carron oil for use; in burns. It was a sticky or untidy' method but gave ease and seemed to, heal the average burn. ‘ That carron oil is helpful in other] irritating conditions of the skin has been discovered by physicians who. having always a. supply in their bag. tried it out on these other conditions: As you know 3 to 5 per cent. tannic= acid is now used for all degrees of‘ burns instead of carron oil. Carron oill has been replaced in the kit bags by] tannic acid. I l Beat. egg add sugar. beat unti smooth. Beat cream, fold into firs mixture and flavour. ‘ (Copyright. 1936. b yme Bell Syndi cate.
