Why Food Is Cooked.

Speaking Of cooking in it's relation to
health, The Home Doctor says: FOOD
is cooked to render 1t more agreeable to
sense of taste and smell. Cooking de-
velops favors and odors not present in
the raw state, and it facilitates the proc
ess of mastication. Some foods are
tough and hard and can neither be fine
ly divided nor we'll mixed with saliva.
Again, it is often desirable that the
food be chemically changed. Thus some
foods or portions Of them are absolutely
indigestible in the uncooked state. A
fourth reason for cooking food is that
the warmth which is thus impaired
promotes digestion by causing an in
creased flow Of blood to the digestive
apparatus, and hence more copious Sc
erection of the digestive fluids. Finally,
cooking destroys any parasites that may
be present in the food. Of these trichin@
in pork and the scolex or encysted head
of the tapeworm in what is known as
measly beef are the most common.

The Lost Galoche.

The Rev. DR.. r. f. Horton, writing
in q London Sunday paper, tells about
lady of his party losing one Of her ga
loches while climbing about the shores
of Norway ford. 1--WE could not find
it," said he, ''and with woeful coun-
tenances we had TO give it up and start
ON our three mile row along the ford
to the hotel. In the afternoon, the idea
came to me: And why not ask our gra-
cious Father for guidance in this trifie
as well as for all the weightier things
which we are constantly committing to
his care? If the hairs of our head are
all numbered, why not also the shoes of
our feet?' / therefore asked him that
we might recover this lost galoche. And
then I proposed that we should row
back to the place. When we reached
the end of the ford and had dashed the
boat to the shore, 1 sprang ON the rocks
and went, 1 know not how or why, to
one spot, not far from the water, q spot
which should have said we had search
ed again and again in the morning, and
there lay the shoe before my eyes, OBJ
vious, as if it had fallen from heaven. Z"

cold Missus Ouida.n

Old Missus Ouida recommends that
the United States be permanently sub
merged in the oceans. This reminds me
of an incident told in my hearing by
the late Mrs. John Bigelow. She called
on Ouida and sent up her card. Present
ly she heard the voice of the authoress
above stairs exclaiming very loudly,
"Tell her / will not see any Ameri-
cans. t." Upon which Mrs. B. lifted up
her voice and replied, "You ought to,
for they are the only people who read
your nasty books T" Ouida had her up
at once, and they held an amicable in
terview. 1t seems, then, that Ouida has
good reason for recommending the inn
mersion of the United States -Philis-
tine.

of Cruelty In the Kongo Free State. "
Mr.. Glave says:
Mr.. Harvey heard from Clarke, who
is at Lake Matumba, that the state sol
diers have been in the vicinity of his
station recently, fighting and taking
prisoners, and he himself has seen sew
eral men with punches of hands signify

success Among the hands were those
of men and women and also those Of
little children. The missionaries are so
much at the mercy of the state that
they do not report these barbario hap
penings to the people at home. have
previously heard of hands Samong them
children's, being brought to the sta
tions, but I was not satisfied Of the
truth of the former information as of
the reports received just now by Mr..
Harvey from Clarke. Much of this sort
of thing is going on at the equator sta
ton. The methods employed are not
necessary. Years ago, when was on
duty at the equator without soldiers, I
never had any difficulty in getting what
men needed, nor did any other station
in the old humane days. The stations
and the boats then had no difficulty in
finding men or labor, nor will the
Belgians if they introduce more reason

The Lightest Known Solid.

The lightest known solid is said to be
the pith of the sunfower, with a specific
gravity of .028, or about one-eighth
that of cork. The sunfower is extern
sively cultivated in central Russia, and
various uses are served by it's different
parts, the recent discovery of the light
ness of the pith essentially increasing
the commercial value of the plant. For
life saving appliances at sea cork has a
buoyancy of to 5, while with the sun

Gave Back
MY Health.

There is no reason for being respondent
and considering diseases of the blood
incurable, simply because the treatment
of physicians and many so-called blood
remedies fail to effect cure. Though
it is naturally disheartening to the suf-
ferer who faithfully takes the prescribed
treatment of the physicians, often at the
expense of hundreds of dollars, to find
himself, no better as time goes
by, still cure will result from the right
remedy, S.S.S., no matter what other
treatment has failed.
The reason that SIS. (Swift's Spe-
cifc) has so successfully cured even the
worst cases after other treatment had
been tried in vain is that it is the only
remedy which forces the poison from
the blood and permanently eliminates
1t from the system, which Is the only
correct principle of curing the disease.
Mercuria1 remedies bottle up the poison
and tear down the system, while SIS.
forces out the poison and builds up and
adds strength and vigor to the entire
system. It is natures remedy, and con-
tains no harmful ingredient.
