EalIacy of Food Tables.

Tables giving the respective percent.
age of nutriment in animal and vege.
table foods are quite common and are
often consulted by those wishing t.
gain nourishment from the smallest
quantity of food matter. Such per.
sons forget that the measure of nutri.
ton to any individual case is not to be
judged by table showing the nutri.
tive parts Of food as determined by
chemical analysis, but depends upon it's
digestibility in his ors her particular
case. Cheese, measured by the ele-
ments of it's composition, is far more
nourishing than beef, yet cheese is tc
most people difficult of digestion, and
therefore beef in the majority Of cases
affords much more actual nourishment.
All depends on the person. Many times
food that is practically poison to one
is nourishing and invigorating to an.
other. We are not only fearfully and
wonderfully made, but we are made sc
unlike in many respects that we must

tentlon Il Necessary.
For ages, says the Chicago Chron-
ic1e, the English and French controlled
the manufacture of hairpins, and it is
only within the last 20 years that the
goods have been produced in other
countries to any extent. The machinery
used is Of a delicate and intricate char
acter, as the price at which the pins arc
sold necessitates the cheapest and most
rapid progress, which can only be pro-
cured by automatic machines. The wire
is made expressly for the purpose and
put up in large coils, which are placed
in clamp aRd SO carried to the ma
chimes while being Strengthened. This
machine cuts, bends, and, by a deli
cate and instantaneous process, sharp
ems the points. Running ct full speed,
it will turn out 12o hairpins every min
Ute. To economic, it is necessary to
keep the engine going day and night.
The difficult part of the work is in the
enameling, which is done by dipping the
pins in a preparation and baking in
an oven. 1t is here that the most con-
slant and careful attention is required,
as the pins must be absolutely smooth
and the enamel have q perfect polish.

OYSTER FAMINE PREDICTED.


A Dealer Says the Beds Arc Sure to BE
Exhausted.
''Oysters will be a very rare deicacy
in few years" said an oyster man Of
New York to Westinghouse Star report
er. "For many years the beds were
preserved to large extent by having
an oyster season and keeping alive tho
popular idea that oysters were not good
except from September to April. This
gave four months during which the
oysters were left alone and allowed to
increase. AS matter of fact, think
they are little better during those
four months than at any other time.
This was first discovered by the seaside
hotel men, and oysters were served dur
ing the summer months. The guests
demanded bivalves when they re-
turned to their homes, and now in all
eastern cities the signs of Fresh
Oysters are as numerous in July
and August az in January and Febru-
ary. The new demand is being sup
piled, and at no time are the beds left
undisturbed. It is now only a question
of q few years before the oysters are
gone, and all because the summer resort
hotel men disabused the minds of the
people as to their not being good to
eat from April to September"

trouble was swimming of the head. when I
