cut better with the scissors than with

The easiest way to dice green pep.
pers Is to cut on several long sl!vers
the whole length of the pepper. Hold
these firmly in one hand and with the
scissors clip through the entire bunch
Several stalks OF asparague may be
clipped through in the same way.
For following ont tomato previous

one to remove practically all the pulp
without breaking through the skin
For fruit salads scissors are equally
useful. as the fine skin which sepn.

Innovation in Politics.

The recent municipal elections in Paris were remarkable not only for the candidature of M. Laloe, who was soundly beaten. but for the first re- corded candidature of a domestic serv- ant. The liyeried class is supposed to take on the political color of it's sur roundings and to be ultra-conservative as rule, but this candidate stood as a republican socialist, and he is said to have been strongly supported by his kind.

 Some people are thin and always re- main thin, from temperamental req sons. Probably in such cases nothing can be done to change this personal peculiarity.
 But there are large number of peo- pie who get thin, or remain thin, who naturally would be plump and fleshy but for some digestive derangement.
 Thin people lack in adipese tissue. Adipose tissue is chiefly composed of fat.
 Fat is derived from the oily constit- uents of food.
 The fat-making foods are called hv the physiologist, hydrocarbons. This class of foods are not digested in the stomach at all. They are digested in the duodenum, the division of the ali. mentary canal just below the stomach. The digestion of fat is mainly, if not wholly, the work of the pancreatic juice. This juice is of alkaline reac. tion, and Is rendered inert by the addi- tion of acid. A hyperacidity of the digestive fluids of the stomach passing down into the duodenum, destroys the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur- poses. Therefore, the fats are not ali. gested or ,emulsified, and the system ia deprived of its due proportion of oily constituents. Hence, the patient grows thin.
 The beginning of the trouble is a ca. tarrhal condition of the stomach which causes hyperacidity of the gastric juices. This hyperacidfty is caused by fermentation of food in the stomach. When the food is taken into the stom- ach, if the process of digestion does not begin immediately, acid fermenta- ton will take place. This creates a hyperacidity of the stomach juices which in their turn prevent the pan- creatic digestion of the oils, and the cancellation results.
 A dose of Peruna before each meal hastens the stomach digestion. By hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents fermentation of the contents of the stomach, and the pancreatie juice is thus preserved in its normal state. It then only remains for the patient to eat sufficient amount of fat-forming foods. and the thinness disappears and plump ness takes it's place.
