Luncheon Lore.

Women have still great deal to
food. They crowd the tearooms and
quick lunch" restaurants, and spend
in the aggregate an enormous amount
of money, in the majOrit.' of cases
for food that neither nourishes nor
satisfies them.
Business women in particular and
brain workers especially among them
ought to know food values and plan
their meals accordingly. They have
not yet discovered that lettuce is
twice as cooling as ice cream, and
that mince-pie is not a dish for early
summer.
1t is not necessary to emulate the
steak, fried potatoes and coffee of
the average man. In fact, such a
diet would disagree with most per-
sons If partaken of to any great eX-
tent.
A thin soup Is usually twice as pal.
atable as a thick one, and is nearly
in some cases quite as nourishing.
This, with sandwich of some cold
meat, lettuce or water cress, and.
perhaps, simple sweet-not pas
try-makes a satisfactory midday
meal.
Where this is the principal meal Of
the day, more may be partaken of,
but, especially in summer, all rich
and heavy made dishes" should be
avoided, and plenty of fresh vege.
tables should be eaten.

MEAT OR CEREALS
A Question of Interest to All Careful
Persons.

Arguments on food are interest
ing. Many persons adopt a vegctar-
ian diet on the ground that they do
not like to feel that life has been
taken to feed them, nor do they
fancy the thought of eating dead
meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption of partly cooked, starchy
oats and wheat or white bread,
pastry, etc, produces serious bowel
troubles, because the bowel digestive
organs, (where starch Is digested),
are overtased and the food ferments,
producing gas, and microbes gener-
ate in the decayed food, frequently
bringing on pertonitis and appendi-
cts.
Starchy food is absolutely essen
tial to the human body. It's best
form is shown in the food Grape
Nuts" where the starch is changed
into form Of sugar during the pro-
cess of its manufacture. In this
way, the required food is presented
to the system In a pre-digested form
and is Immediately made into blood
and tissue, without taxing the diges-
tive organs.
A remarkable result in nourish-
ment is obtained; the person using
Grape-Nuts gains quickly in physical
and mental strength. Why In mem
tai? Because the food contains del
icate particles Of Phosphate of Pot
ash obtained from the grains, and
this unites with the albumen of all
food and the combination is what
nature uses to rebuild worn out cells
in the brain. This Is scientific fact
that can be easily proven by ten
days use Of Grape-Nuts. "There's,
a Reason" Read "The Road to-
MELVILLE" in pkgs.

Mvsterious Fire Tn Tree,

New York had a mysterious fire
the other day, which attracted the
attention of a multitude of people,
and for a short time blocked travel
and traffic on Broadway. An old
linden tree near the Rector Street
side of Trinity Churchyard began to
emit volumes of smoke, and In
minute more q tongue of flame shot
up out of the hollow trunk and ig-
nited the scant folige and old twigs,
What started the tree to blaze up
is matter of guess-work, but no
doubt 1t was caused by spontaneous
combustion. The old tree, or what
Is left of the original trunk, Is only
IL feet high, and long ago all else
but the trunk and what remains OF

"No moths will penetrate a news

a few moth balls may also be thrown
into the bag. To keep housemaids'
necessities bags are invaluable; one

1t goes without saying that each
member of the family should have
his or her own clothes bag for soiled
garments; it saves work and keeps
rooms tidy. My greatest comfort In
the way of bags, however, is my
own especial set, as | have about a
dozen, all labeled, and consequently

much for the comfort and convent

Increased Coal Production.

Statistics compiled for the Geolog-
ical Survey by Edward w. Parker,
coal mining expert Of the survey,
show a remarkable increase in the
total production of coal in the United
States during 1906 over the pre-.
ceding year.
The production In 1906 was 414,-
O39,5S1 short tons of 1000 pounds,
valued at $512,61O,744. In 1905
the output amounted to 392,919,341
tons, valued at $476,756,963. The
increase in quantity was 5 per cent.
and in value Z per cent.
West Virginia supplanted Illinois
as the State second to Pennsylvania
in coal production, attributed chiefly
to the almost complete suspension
of mining in Illinois during all of
April and a part Of May, when the
miners and operators were in con-
flict over the wage scale.-Washing-
