An American Puzzle.

DR.. Lorenz, of bloodless surgery
fame, cannot understand how Amer
leans enjoy fair health on a diet that
would depopulate any other country.
THE pies, buildings, sauce and in
Vulnerable other dishes, most of
which are unhealthful in the extreme.
partaken Of by young and old alike
in America, have caused me to won
der" says DIR. Lorenz, that the peo-
pie are not physical and constitutions
al wrecks"
The secret is to be found in the
simple, hardy lives Of the %forefathers
of the present generation. Their Wig
orous health has bestowed upon the
grandchildren wonderful constitution
al vigor. But the change from the
simple to the luxurious is working
havoc. The rising generation have
squandered the constitutional capital
%bequeathed to them and are rapidly
becoming physical bankrupts. A halt
must be called and the simple habits
resumed or the prophecy CT DR.. 10
renz will surely be realized.

s NATURES GREAT DISINFECTANT. s
1 Let the Sunlight Reach Every Corner of the 1
House and Destroy the Germs. S


Natures great d|isinfectant is sun
light. It is a most interesting fact
that this wonderful light. which pro-
notes the growth of useful plants and
sustains animal life, at the same time
destroys by its very brightness all
sorts of germs which are brought in
contact with it. It is this fact alone
which renders the earth inhabitable.
Germs develop with such marvellous
rapidity that they would quickly over
whelm us by their very numbers if
not constantly destroyed by the sun.
A little computation will readily show
this. Some germs are capable of such
rapid multiplication that they may
double every fifteen minutes under
favorable conditions of temperature
and food supply. Estimate the num-
Der Of germs which might be pro-
duced in a single day of tw~enty-four
hours, or ninety-six doublings. The
number would be more than thirty
two thousand billion billions, or suf-
ficient to cover eighty thousand
square miles a foot deep, or fill a
space of more than fifteen cubic
miles. The increase Of a minute or
ganism occupying a cubic space of
not more than one twenty-thousandth
of an inch to such prodigious magni-
tude is beyond comprehension, and
practically cannot occur; for while
the germ may grow at this immense
rapidity for a short time, the pOisons
which it produces become destructive
to itself. The material upon which it
feeds is also exhausted, so that its
growth ceases.
Doubtless all have noticed the fact
that mold grows during the night and
in dark, damp cellars. Bright sun
light quickly destroys germs, mold,
and other parasitic organisms. DIFF.
fused daylight does not act nearly so
rapidly, but accomplishes in the
course of a few hours what bright
sunlight is capable of doing in a few
minutes. 1t is clearly evident, then.
that in order hat our houses should
be kept free from germs, they, like
our bodies, should be made full of life
The shutters should be opened, the
curtains raised, and the light admit
ted to every room in the house, clos
cts included, so that the disinfecting
power of light may be exercised in
every nook and corner of the dwell
ing.

Cream Graham Rolls.-To one-half
cup of cold cream add one-half cup of
soft ice water. Make into a dough
with three cups of Graham flour,

Hoeeake.-Scald one pint of white
corn meal, with which, if desired, a
tablespoonful of sugar and One-half

large or small cakes as preferred,
about one-half inch in thickness.
Cook slowly, and when well Drowned
on the ~underside, turn over. The
cake may be cooked slowly until well
done throughout, or, as the portion
underneath becomes well Drowned,
the first brown crust may be peeled
on with a knife, and the cake again
turned. AS rapidly as a crust be-
comes formed and Drowned, one may
be removed, and the cake turned, IN
til the whole is Drowned. The thin,
wafer-like trusts are excellent served
with hot milk or cream.

a crowd of coarse. half-drunken men,
and with them partake freely of in
%toxicating liquor. Unfortunately, this
painful sight is not at all rare, and it
is quite common to see drunken wom-
en- Keeling about in the streets. What
a sad commentary on our modern CIV
ilization.
In Copenhagen it is the custom to
dress young schoolgirls so that their
arms are almost or entirely bare, even
in weather when Americans appre-
ciate their o%vercoats. This practice
necessarily chills the blood, and tends
to produce congestion of the internal
organs. and undoubtedly lays the
founGation for colds, pneumonia and
tuberculosis.
tuberculosis is making sad havoc
among the urban population Of Nor
way. 1t is pitiful to note how this
plague is decimating this once hardy
race. Sedentary life, indoor confne-
ment and defective ventilation are
undoubtedly the most prolific causes,
fo- fifty per cent of the tubercular
cases make a satisfactory recovery
when they are sent to some outdoor
sanitarium; and what will cure a con
sumptive would certainly have pre-
vented the onset of the disease.
The liquor curse is undermining the
physical stamina of the Swedish race,
Liquor drinking among the working
classes is almost universal. One
third of their population die before
the age of twenty-one, and o%ne-fourth
of those who live, are rejected from
military service on account of phys
ical disqualifcations.

Here's the way Alexander HamiI-

Everybody who has had experience
in carving knows that not only are
sharper knives required, but also
probably more skill and practice to
carve a duck than any other fowl. Ad-
miral Dewey was a guest at a dinner
table where his host had that serious
task to perform. AS the admiral
watched the almost desperate en-
reavors Of the carver to d~isintegrate
the bird he smiled mildly, His host
happened to notice it and felt a bit
piqued, as he was not in the best OF
temper, anyway.

a mule story: Mules, apparently, do
not die from any cause. When the
mission first crossed the Jelapla a
a mule slipped in the dusk and fell
into the lake at the bottom of the
pass. It was thought to be drowned.
Next morning a convoy found it with
