Frenzied Advertising.

In these days of frenzied advertising,
it is hard for all of US to tell the real
thing, and it naturally follows that the
safest way is to pin our faith to those
articles and products which are backed
and guaranteed by the oldest and most
reliable concerns.
The Pillsbury company, of Mime
apolis, with a worldwide reputation
for best quality, guarantees to you that
in buying their ideal breakfast food,
"Pillsbury's Vitos-the Meat of the
Wheat" you actually purchase pro-
duct which is free from impurities, and
at the same time a most economical
food. 1t is truly the white heart of the
wheat kernel, sterilized, nothing add
ed, nothing taken away; no havoring,
no cooking, and two-pound package
will make you twelve pounds Of delici-
GUS white food. Figure the economy
of this.
If you are looking for the best, and
are willing to accept the statements OF
the largest and most respected of firms,
whose products are the yard stick by
which all competitors measure theil
lines, you will not hesitate.
Ask your grocer today for "Pills,
bury's Vitos-the Meat of the Wheat
Put up only in two. pound air tight
packages. Price 20 cents.

How to Make SoaD.

All fat and grease from the kitchen
should be carefully saved, tried out
md made into soap before accumulat-
ng and becoming offensive. When peo.
pie burned wood they made their own
lye Of green wood ashes; but now II
is easier to make it of salsoda. For
soft soap allow to five pounds of grease
three pounds Of washing soda and four
gallons of boiling water. Put into a
small tub and let 1t stand for several
days until the grease is eaten up. Stir
every day, using wooden paddle. If
too thick add more water If wood
ashes are used instead of soda, boil the
mixture. You can tell when the grease
is all absorbed by dropping a spoonful
Of the melted soap into glass of wa
ter, when any grease remaining will
show on the surface. If thick or ropy
add little more lye.

And he plowed along the street for ten
feet and then fell full length.

Banana Is a Real Food.

Professors Of dietetics tell us that
the banana Is not, as so many fruits
are, a flavor and nothing more. but
food and source of real nutriment.
1t is at once useful and delicious. 1t
not only gratifies the palate, but sup
plies material for combustion and the
maintenance of animal heat, while it
also builds up the muscles ana re-
pairs the worn and threadbare nerves.
The flour made from it in its dried
state is equal in nutritive value to
vice, and how invigorating -and sus-
tanning rice is has been demonstrated
in the recent achievements of the Jap
anese. Dried and sprinkled with sug-
ar, form in which it has been re-
Gently introduced into this country,
the upstart banana is, weight for
weight, as nutritious as the vener.
able fig.
But it is in the fresh state, clad in
Its primrose tunic-the stripping off
of which is in itself fascinating op-
eration-that the banana chiefly ap-
peals to us. Its creamy succulence
and delicate odor are inviting and its
pleasant sapor is a prelude to good
digestion. Dependent as that sapor
is on an ethereal body which the coal
tar investigators have not yet been
able to initiate by any chemical es-
lsence, it is subtle stimulus to all
subsequent alimentary processes. And
thus it is that the banana is an emil
nently digestible food. No sense of
oppression or drowslness follows a
meal Of it, and meal of it may
be made bulky enough.-Pall Mall Ga
