In the recent news many people
have noticed one or two references to
the fact that timed meats for the Rus.
Sian troops are prepared by process
which enables the contents of each tin
to be served hot without fire. This
boon is obtained by having the or
binary tins filed with food ''Jacketed''
in patent tins. The patent tin con.
tains water, together with chemical
mixture by means Of which the water
can be raised to boiling point In ten
minutes or a quarter Of an hour. AL
that is necessary to do when 1t ia de
sired to heat. the food is to puncture
the top of the patent tin, the chemical
mixture being thereby forced into the
water, which soon begins to boil.

Nicotine Under the Ban.

The Spanish cortes is about to be-
come the scene of a remarkable ex-
pertinent in social legislation. The
minister of the interior has drafted a
bill absolutely prohibiting the selling
Of tobacco, cigars or cigarettes to any
person under II years Of age. The
penalties vary from 81 to e20, with
imprisonment in exceptionally bad
cases. The measure is justified as i'm
perative for the arrest of racial de-
generation. tuberculosis makes great
ravages among Spanish laboring
youths, who, for the most part, under
nour1shed and already enfeebled by
this and overwork, aggravate matters
by spending much Of their scanty
wages in tobacco, generally cigarettes

Praises Chinese CookInA.

A German epicure comes to the res
cue of the Chinese in regard to their
alleged habit of eating rotten eggs.
The eggs, he says, are simply pre-
served in lime until they get a con-
gistency like that of hard butter and
they taste somewhat like lobster. He
declares them one of the choices del
icacies he has ever eaten. He thinks
there are no better cooks in the world
than the Chinese. When he went to
live among them his friends predicted
ne would starve, but he had a good
time and gained weight-more than he
wanted to.

The Tools of Genius.

Some of the greatest discoveries In
physics and chemistry have been made
with the simplest forms of apparatus
and under the most modest conditions
Of laboratory equipment. One need only
recall the achievements Of the famous
John Dalton and in later time of Sir
Gabriel Stokes to illustrate the point.
As regards the latter, comment Of
Lord Rayleigh is Of interest. Stokes
experimental work, he says, was exc
cuted with the most modest appliances.
Many Of his discoveries were made in a
narrow passage behind the pantry Of
his house, into the window Of which he
had shutter fixed with slit in it and
q bracket on which to place crystals
and prisms.-London Telegraph.

one cupful of rolled oats and one cup
full of graham or wheat -four. Scald a
cupful of cornmeal with enough boil
Ing water to moisten 1t. Dissolve one
half of yeast cake in half cupful OF
warm water. Add TO the dry mixture
sufficient tepid water Tor sweet milk
and water miXed) to make a rather
thick drop batter. Stir in the scalded
meal, dissolved yeast and one or two
tablespoonfuls of molasses; then thin
slightly with more water or milk and
beat thoroughly. Cover and set aside
to rise overnight. In the morning thin
as much as necessary for baking, using
milk or water in which is dissolved a
quarter of teaspoonful OF baking
soda. Have the griddle very hot.
Grease with thick piece of suet or fat
salt pork. Set aside full half pint of
the batter, closely covered, to act as a
