GIANT RADIsHEs OF THE EAST
There tho Vegetable Grows to an
Enormous Size:

Radishes in North China and In
Japan are as important and ubiqui.
tous a part Of every meal as is bread
in America. In both countries many
millions of bushels Of this vegetable
are grown every year, and they are
to be had at/all seasons. 1t is thus
easy to understand why these parts
OF the world grow the strangest and
biggest radishes known.
The giants beside the little French
Breakfast, our favorite American va
rety, are but babies beside the mon
sters they grow under the warm,
moist influences Of the oriental eli.
mate.
These radishes are grown on Amer
lean soil from seeds imported by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture from China. They take we'll to
the American climate, and probably
would have weighed five pounds when
full grown.
When these fellows are grown in
China they rapidly form a great bril-
liant red globe eight to ten inches in
diameter and weighing sometimes 20
pounds. Another kind Is snow white
and grows a foot long, and still an
other is a brilliant green on the out
side and a beautiful wine red when
the skin is cut. Some of these
strange vegetables are exceedingly
delicate in flavor and texture when
grown under favorable conditions.

Absent Minded.

Capt. Alexander Hutchins, of Ellis

ability, has always been noted for abb
sent-mindedness. On one occasion,
while at home between trips, he decid-

somewhat of a carpenter, he undertook
this part of it himself, and labored at
it industriously for a day or two.
1t was finally lathed according to
his ideas, and as he Grove the last nail
and surveyed his work.. not without
pride, he called his wife to see what a
good job he had done.
She climbed the stairs, and then

tain, in amazement. II forgot all

How to Put On Gloves.

Open and turn back the gloves to
the thumb and powder lightly. Put
the fingers in their places, not the
thumb, and carefully work them On
with the first finger and thumb OF
the other hand until they are quite
down; never press between the fin
gers. Pass the thumb into it's place
with care and work on as the fingers.
Turn back the glove and slide it over
the hand and wrist, never pinching
the kid, and work the glove into
proper place by means of the light
est pressure, always allowing the kid
to slide between the fingers. In fin
ishing care should be taken in fas-
tening the first button.

I took 1t home rather dubious about
what my husband would say-he was
fond of coffee.
"But I took coffee right OF the

change in u.s., and now my husband
never complains Of heart palpitation
any MORE. My stomach trouble went
away in two weeks after I began Pos
tum. My children love it and it does
them good, which can't be said of
coffee.
"a lady visited us who was always
half sick. / told her I'd make her a
