the cell contents of disease bacteria which have been killed by heat or chemicals. It Is^Doctor Krueger’s conclusion that
the consistent failure of many of these preparations Is due to alterations in the protein of the bacteria induced by the
heat or chemicals used to kill hem. To eliminate this undesirable reaction he has perfected a mill, consisting of
a cylinder containing several thousand stainless-steel ball bearings which kills bacteria without denaturatlon of the
protein within them. The effectiveness of this method of preparing vaccines has been clearly demonstrated In the
treatment of whooping cough and of sinus Infections. During a recent epidemic of whooping cough 232 children were
treated with the Krueger \acclne and 165 with another typeiof vaccine. Only 47 per cent of the children receiving
the old type of vaccine showed fair or good results, while the Krueger pertussis antigen, as it Is called, brought about
good or fair results In IX) per cent of the cases. Tests of the similarly prepared antigen for sinus infections have brought
about cures or satisfactory Improvement In 90 per cent or more of three series of 45, G2 and 50 cases. Next Doctor
Krueger will test the new type antigen on common colds.
BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
By THORNTON W. BURGESS
DANNY MEADOW MOUSE IS IN A
TIGHT PLACE
D anny meadow mouse was
having a good time on the hank
of the Smiling Pool. He laughed at
Grandfather Frog's fear that he was
taking a foolish risk. It was true that
he was a long way from home with
Its many secret hiding places which
made It comparatively safe In times of
danger. But Danny wasn’t worrying.
As he had told Grandfather Frog, he
doesn’t believe In worrying until there
Is something to worry about.
Sc, this being the first time he had
visited the Smiling Pool for a long
cousin, Jerry Muskrat, was getting on;
what Billy Mink and Little Joe Otter
and Spotty and, Turtle had been 'do
ing; how large a family Mr. and Mrs.
Redwing had raised, and if Rattles the
Kingfisher Still came fishing every-day
In the smiling pool?
Grandfather Frog answered all his
questions and then declared that he
had talked enough for one morning,
binding that Grandfather Frog really
meant what he said, Danny first hunt
ed for something to eat, and then find
ing a comfortable place on the bank
of the Smiling Pool, decided to take a
nap.
Now Just by chance, that very morn
ing Reddy Fox decided that he, too,
would visit the Sratltn^ Pool. Reddy
likes a tender young frog for a change
in his bill of fare once in a while. So
about the time Danny Meadow Mouse
decided to take a nap Reddy Fox start
ed toward the Smiling Pool. As tye
drew near it he crouched low In the
grass and stole forward very carefully
and stealthily, doing his best to keep
ns much out of sigTit as pbssfbTe. Near
er and, nearer he crept to the bank of
he Smiling Pool, and It Just happened
that he was headed straight for the
spot where Danny Meadow Mouse was
napping.
Now Reddy wasn’t thinking of Dan
ny Meadb’w &iouse. He was thinking
of young frogs. But as he drew near
the bank of the Smiling Pool a care
less Merry Little Breeze brought to
him the scent of Danny Meadow
Mouse. It tickled Reddy’s nose. It
made him forget young frogs. A fat
meadow mouse would be much better
eating than a young frog.
Reddy became more careful than
ever, j He crept along almost on his
stomjjfch in the direction from wdiich
that scent came. All the time Danny
Meadow Mouse was having pleasant
dreams in that comfortable place on
the banks of the Smiling Pool, w’holly
unconscious that danger was any
where near.-

COOK BOOK
FOR THE BUSY HOUSEKEEPER
IN MANY homes fresh cookies are so
much more enjoyed than a large
amount baked at one time. s Here is
the Ice-box cooky which may be kept
many days and when a tin of fresh
cookies Is wanted, slice off a few, pflp
them In the oven and bake them as
brown as yon like.
Ice-Box Cookies.
Take one cupful each of butter,
brown and granulated sugar, two eggs,
one teaspoonful each of salt and soda,
one cupful of nutmeats, one teaspoon-
ful each of hlmbnd and vanilla extracf
and four and one-fourth cupfuls of
flojir. Cream the butter, add the su
gar, eggs and other Ingredients. Roll
Into two rolls and let stand on a clotlj
In a pan placed In the Ice box. The
cloth keeps^the ddhgh from flattening
and sticking to the pan and thus losing
Its round shape. Slice very thin, dec
orate with half a aut meat, a raisin
or cherry as one’s taste suggests.
Another ,food so much liked in all
our homes, Is fresh rolls.” It takes
time to prepare a light and crisp roll.
Here Is a recipe which will keep for
a week or longer in the ice chest arid-
a pan of biscuits may be baked any
time one cares to serve them.:
Ice Box Rolls. ^ .
Dissolve two compressed yeast cakes
In one-fourth of a cupful df warm wa
ter, adding two .teaspoonfuls of sugar.
Add two tablespoonfbl« of shortening,
one tablespoonfal of aalt, one-half cup
ful of sugar to a pint of boiling water.
Beat two eggs and mix all together
with four cupfuls of flour. Beat well,
then add three and one-half cupfuls
more of flour, mix well with a spoon
but do not knead. Set away4n the re
frigerator until the next day at noon,
when it will be ready to use. Handle
the rolls quickly, brush with melted
lard or Sweet fat when they ^re placed
in the pan. Let stand until more than
double their bulk; keep covered while
rising In a warm piece.
With these two mixtures In the ice
