Heavyweight Kitchen Folks.


ut will do you more good to smell
food that is being cooked than it will
to eat it after it is cooked" was the
astounding statement made by a res.
taurant man.
"That is the reason why so many
professional cooks are heavyweights.
You never saw any one who became q
chef and stayed at it any length of
time but became fleshy. Cooks never
eat to any great extent, except to taste
the food at times while it is being
cooked in order to see if it is done. 1t
is the odor of the food in the kitchen
that makes them fat.
The same will apply in the case OF
the housewife. Continuous work in the
kitchen makes f1eshy women and
healthy women. Cooking is the
healthiest occupation in the world"

HAD LAUGH ON SAILORS.
cavaIrymen Turned the Tables on
elue.cIad Hosts.

A jack tar from one of Uncle Sans
battleships who was on a recent visit
to Washington related in converse,
ton with Star reporter an amusing
story Of how several cavalrymen Of
the United States army turned the
tables on himself and several other
sailors, while the battleship was sta,
toned at Havana, Cuba. >,
The sailors, who are up to all kinds
of tricks, were on shore leave one day.
and invited a number of the cavalry.
men to take sail with them. This
struck the fancy of the army men, but
before the trip was half over every
one of them had become seasick, much
to the amusement Of the sailors, who
had a good, hearty laugh at their
guests expense. Upon returning to
the shore the soldiers thanked them
for their trip and returned to their
quarters.
A few days later the cavalrymen
journeyed out to the battleship and in
vited the sailors who had been so
kind as to give them q sail to take a
horseback ride about the island. The
sailors consented at once. 1t devel.
oped that the soldiers had picked out
the hardest-riding horses at the camp
for the sailors to ride, and as all know,
the army horses follow the leader as q
drove of sheep, one big cavalryman
on fine steed at once stuck his spurs
into his horses sides, and he dashed
on at full speed. The others, on
which were the sailors, followed in a
line. This pace was kept up for about
five miles, at the conclusion Of which
each sailor was either holding on to
the saddle or had his arms about the
horses neck.
The sailors returned to their ship
in the afternoon, but all were 80 sore
from their horseback ride that they
could hardly stir from their hammocks
the next day. The cavalrymen came
out to the ship bright and early and
invited them to take another ride, but
the sailors declined with thanks.

An interesting personality in the ma

of the Rev. Edward Everett Hale, the
veteran author and chaplain of the
senate, himself perhaps the most pic

which he presides over senatorial de-
votions. Miss Ellen Day Hale, a very

daughter of the author of "The Man

PROGRESSIVE
FORT PIERCE
Attractive Booklet Issued by
Board OF Trade.
PLAIN FACTS SET FORTH
The Kind OF Advertising That viii Win
Settlers to This Land Of Promise
and Possibilities,

The booklet authorized by the board
of trade some time ago has been issued
and sets forth in very attractive
manner the advantages of our thriving
city and surrounding country. The
general plan Of this advertisement is
commendable, from the fact that it
contains no misrepresentation or mis-
leading statements to attract or disap-
point. The booklet consists of twenty
eight pages, twenty-five of which is
devoted to photographs, many groups
being formed, so that many of the
prominent buildings of the. town are
portrayed. This series of splendid cuts
speak more eloquently than words of
the beauty and desirability Of this
favored section. and a proper dis
tribution of this booklet should result
in bringing many homeseekers to this
section. The board of trade is to be
commended for its progressive attitude
in presenting medium free from
any suggestion of Misrepresentation so
tempting to the average promoter.
The board claims thriving town, and
has the photographs to prove it. The
productive soil, admirably adapted to
the culture of beans, tomatoes and
pineapples, is plainly pictured.
The Times Union of a recent date in
speaking of the benefits of advertising
has the following to say concerning
what has been done along this line:
"The progressive citizens along the
East Coast believe in advertising the
beauties and advantages of their section
and they do so constantly and with good
judgment, holding that experience
proves the money spent is good in
vestment. The people of Daytona,
Seabreeze and Daytona Beach have held
a business meeting and contracted for
such work in a characteristic display
of public-spirited- horse-sense that
means business and will get what it
wants. We all know what other por-
rions of the coast do along the same
lines.
