Dried Bananas.

Those who have grown bananas and
eaten them, when ripened on the stalk,
know how much better they are than
those offered in the market. Health
tells Of a product which should be
sought for and introduced generally:
The banana (paradise fg) is far
more appreciated in England than in
America, immense quantities being i'm
ported into England, and, consequent
ly, sold there at a lower price than in
the very neighborhood of it's home
The banana, rich in albumen, carbon
hydrates, and nutritive salts, is valu-
able, easily digested food which ought
to be more appreciated than it has
been so far.
The bananas, growing in Southern
climes, when still green, and not yet
fully ripe, are gathered from the trees
in punches and shipped to the coun-
tries in the North. Here, stored up in
are fully ripened by artificial heat.
Now and then this ripening is effected
by the SUM- No matter how this ripen-
ing is done, the taste and flavor and
also the nourishing value of the fruit
are impaired.
In order to prevent this and to give
also people living in the North the
possibility of enjoying this fruit in it's
pure and unalloyed taste, new pro-
cess has been invented for its preser-
vation. According to this process
the bananas are not gathered until
they are fully and thoroughly ripened
on the trees; then they are dried in
such a way that the starch is trans
formed into sugar without impairing
in the least the delicious flavor Of the
fruit By this drying the fruits be-

Good Looks

Not many girls are born beautiful,
but every girl living can make herself
attractive. Unsightly teeth may be i'm
proved by the dentists art; wide,
irregular mouth with thick lips, may be
cultured into such an expression Of
sweetness and refinement that it will
be really beautiful. An ungraceful
walk and figure may be entirely made
over by persevering in gymnastic ex-
ercises. A muddy, rough skin can be
made clear and satin smooth by bath
ing, by frequent applications Of soft
scrubbing brush, healthful skin lotion
and hygienic observances like taking
plenty of fresh air and sunshine OF
mere physical beauty, health is the
foundation, and if you want to be love-
ly, cultivate first Of all robust health,
which will enable you to be always
cheerful and in high spirits. No good
looks can long exist with bad health

The Girl on the Farm

lov on the farm" that sometimes the
girl on the farm" may we'll feel slight
ed saws the "Rural New Yorker" In
our grandmothers' day, the daughters
found ample scope for their energies
in doing many things which can in our
day be better and more quickly done
by improved machinery. The farmer
has the latest style of mower and reap
er, and his family has the most up-to-
date convenience indoors In the
heart of every healthy American boy
and girl is a feeling that makes them
want to have a certain amount OF IN
dependence; that is, they want to teel
that they are recognized factors IN do
ing the worlds work. Rural schools
of our day give better education than
CITY high schools IS years ago, and
country children are, as rule, today,
I'D to city standards in the essentials
of education, if not in all the tr1lls.
Then, too, the average country girl
has bonus of good health to add to
her equipment, and there is no reason
why she should not be equally as sue
cessful a business woman as her city
cousin There are no parts OF the
farming business which girl may not
learn and at least oversee, II the actual
labor be too hard for her. But the
boys question becomes the girls ques-
ton: ''Where is the chance for me to
earn anything when the farm yields
onlv enough for father? [ must go
away from home to get ahead
Let us take a familiar phase. The
farmer keeps COWS and sells his cream
at a creamery, frequently carrying it
two or three times week. The
daughter with knowledge Of dairy
ing and a liking for it might run a
dairy at home, possibly buying cream
from neighbors also, pay for it, make
her butter, market it, and carry on the
business herself just as independently
as if she were away from home. There
is a great variety Of farm occupations
to choose from, such as poultry, sheep,
bees, vegetables, small fruits, cut flow
ers, herbs, je1lies, pickles, ETC. When
she launches out, however, it would
be we'll for all concerned to observe
the following don'ts:
Don't expect her to do half the
hOusework when she is in business for
herself any more than if she were en-
ployed in an office.
Don't stand off and make her feel
uncomfortable any more than you
would Neighbor Jones.
Don't try to dictate to her as to how
she should carry on her business any
more than you would like to have her
order your affairs.
Don't think she ought to turn the
protts over to you any more than you
would expect your grocer to do so
with his
There are also dos" as we'll as
"dont's:''
Do treat her like rational business
woman.
Do give her encouragement, even
if at first it is uphill work for her, for
that condition is true of many a man
in business.
Do let her try the newest methods,
even if she has to learn wisdom by ex-
perience.
Do be honorable in your money
dealings with her.
Do give her a chance to earn a
competency in the blessed, pure air Of
the country, and doubt not that some
time you will be glad you kept "the
