RYE BREAD AND COFFEE.
This Is the Staple Food of Working
men In Germany.

K Il Z { 49, i .
The workinglnan in Germany must
have coffee, and plenty of it, and a lit
tie meat. Butter is practically UNI
known to him, lard being used in its
stead. He rarely uses milk, eggs Or
white flour, and he never thinks of
buying any Of the better cuts of meat.
Canned goods, familiar to every Amer
ican worker, are absolutely unknown
to him.
His staple food is rye bread, which
he buys in enormous loaves. His wife
or his little girl goes to market for this
bread and brings it home clasped in
her arms ;lnWGapped. [ have seen a

gives the German workman teeth Of
unequaled excellence.
And this bread is good. thoroughly

Gus care. The bakers are watched,

some. This bread is fairly cheap cost

to u cents a loaf, though it, too, has
risen in price with increased demand.

has grown up on it. In one form it is
the basic ration Of the German army.

DISTRESSING ASTHMA.
20 BE crrel This Disease aInst BE
Fought IN Early Stages.

4 (
In popular. usage asthma is a term
employed to describe a well known
condition, yet it is significant of the
broadened knowledge CT diseases in
general that, as a distinct disease, the
name IS applied in a more and more
restricted sense by physicians.
For example, the asthma Of which
Dr.. Johnson complains in his later
years, as recorded by Boswell, is. so
clearly set forth by the faithful biog-
rapher that the modern physician is
even now able to determine that an
affection of the heart was responsible
for it.
Asthma is often family affection
and is frequently traceable to parents,
grandparents or great grandparents.
Most sufferers are of an excitable, emo
tional or nervous temperament. It
bears rather striking analogy to epi-
lepSy in that its attacks are character
iZed by suddenness and influenced by
strong emotions. like fear or grief, and
not infrequently occur at night, when
the sufferer may be plunged from deep
sleep into an attack. In both diseases
excitement during the day is often fol-
lowed by attacks.
Physicians believe, however, that u
high strung organization alone is not
sufficient to develop the disorder, but
that some other source Of irritation
must be added-that, is, some faulty
state of the system elsewhere, like dis
ease Of the digestive tract, harmful
factors circulating in the blood, obsta-
cles' to free breathing in the nose and
othars.
Whatever may be the source they
must be dealt with energetically and at
an early stage since long standing
cases Of asthma invariably develop
changes in the lungs and heart which
are Permanent. The disease can then
be dealt with only by measures aimed
at palliating and cutting short the sep
arate attacks and with no reasonable
hope OF an actual, permanent cure.
For the young sufferer and for those
in the early attacks Of asthma the
writer would emphasize the necessity
Of q thorough search for and the re-
mOyal of any and every error in by
gienic living in order to avoid the suf
fering of the chronic asthmatic and the
further diseases which it brings in it's
train.-Y Companion,

THE HOUS II IN TERS..

The men who go out cunning
sNo moreHare to the front,
For they. have passed the season
When they're allowed to hunt,
g But many sharp eyed women
Now much attention claim.
For they are daily hunting, I
And houses are their game.
They do not seek the forests,
For right in town they stay,
Where they can hunt in safety
From dawn till close of day.
No guns are they requiring
AS they pursue their quest,
For little lists of dwellings,
Absorb their interest.
An early start they're making
And with their faces set
So that the line of vision
Will take in each "To Let"
And often in the distance
A hope before them looms.
But to their disappointment
The sign is Furnished Rooms
The journey they're resuming.
And up and down each street
They go until they're weary,
Especially their feet.
Day after day they travel
Along the same old route,
And rarely do they notice
A dwelling that will suit.
The seasons just commencing,
And soon there'll be throng
OF hunters thus patrolling
The streets the whole day long.
But many soon will weary
And in their old homes stay,
Where they'll be free from troubles
That come on moving day
