Where The New Gold Goes.

This years new gold, of which
there will be more than four hum
bred million dollars worth, will be
quickly absorbed by the great banks
of the civilized nations and the ma
tional treasures; while perhaps a
quarter of it will be used in the
arts. Six of the bigger banks of
continental Europe increased their
accumulations of gold by some $780,
100000 in the year ending with
June 10, and now hold the huge
amount of 1,S64,590,00 the Bank
of France alone having on hand
$740,130,O00, an increase over the
previous year of $11S,030,000. In
preparation for war contingencies, as
well as anticipating that if peace
continues there will be need of an
ample backing of enterprise by
means of credit, the great banks OF
the world are very keen in securing
all the gold they can lay hands on
India is 'the sink of the precious
metals SO also is Egypt given to
boarding gold, and Lord Cromer
who has governed the country, and
should know what he is talking
about, says that the Egyptians
hoard 100000, or $4,000, 900
of the yellow metal every year. Ar
almost incredible statement, but
Lord Cromer is a serious man, and
knows the Land of the Pharaohs.-

a decided advantage over her town
bred cousin. AS guest, the coun-
try girl gives little or no trouble in
the house.
No special dishes have to be pre-
pared to coax captious appetite. for
she enjoys with a healthy relish eV-
erything that is. set before her. At
breakfast she is always fresh and
amiable, while the town girl is Sleep
liz toying with a morsel of toast.
From a mans point of view, a
country cousin possesses many admir-
able traits which he devoutly wishes
the town-bred girl would emulate.
In the first place, she can don her
walking attire and be ready to &C
company him for stroll before the
girl from the city would have even
decided which hat she would wear
for the occasion.
The best type of country girl makes
a splendid wife. She is not used to
being pampered in every little whim,
and the man who wins her has a
wife who will face any trouble with
him, be it great OF small.-Home

HOME MADE HAMMOCK.

An entirely comfortable hammock.
one that will outwear two of the Or
binary kind, is made of canvas
stretched over a frame work of wood
and suspended from porch ceiling OF
tree limbs by ropes.
The wooden frame should be six
feet long and three wide. Any car
penter could make one in an hour or
so, at very little expense. The four
sides of the frame should be securely
dovetailed together at the corners.
Canvas may be bought at any shop
where shops supplies are kept
cheaper than at department store,
The canvas should not be drawn
taut over the frame, but little slack
should be allowed. Fasten to the
frame with strong wire nails set
close together.
Screw eyes are then put on at tho
four corners of the frame and strong
rope run through them and turned
back, wrapped with heavy Irvine and
we'll glued. This is neat and strong
manner in which to secure the ends
of the rope.
Small pulleys should be put in the
porch ceiling and the ropes run
through them so that the hammock
may be raised and lowered at will.
At night and in stormy weather the
hammock can then be raised to the
ceiling out of the rain and out of the
way. An awning cleat screwed into
a porch pillar or into the wall holds
the four ropes tight.
Such a hammock is wonderfully
comfortable, for it gives with every
movement of the body. and it is safer
than an ordinary hammock, because
the frame prevents 1t from tipping
over.-New Haven Register.

WORRIES AND BLESSINGS.

The League of Village Mothers
met at our home last week and our
meeting was interesting. Two mem
bers had been appointed leaders for
the afternoon. One opened the lit
erary exercise on the subject of Wor-
ries. A neighbours house had just
burned to the ground and the young
wife had lost three hundred cans of
fruit A man with a wagon had
made the rounds and we all gave of
our store Of canned goods to lessen
her loss. This reduced one woman S
worries. The leader had distributed
slips among the members and here
are some of the questions:
':Can 1 make a list of my worries?"
Glow can 1 attack each worry and
overcome it," What good does it
do me or others to worry?" What
worries me most, actual or fancied
things?" fIs there not a remedy and
have | sought it," do l realize that
each worry can be cured by persistent
cffort?" "Will the overcoming of
one worry help to overcome others?'
while l worry am l not stealing my
own vitality and spelling my home
life?" MAY net worry be defined as
a sort of selfishncss?"
Each woman was allowed but five
minutes for responses; SO we con-
dense It was surprising how much
enthusiasm was created by these
common questions. 1t was food for
reflection for all the women.

COLLEGE GIRLS AS TYPISTS

Ruth Cranston believes that stem
ography is one of the most promising
fields for girls from the regular col
leges. This is an unusual suggestion,
as business colleges in all the cities
turn out girl stenographers by the
scores. Miss Cranston, however,
says there is room at the top for
young women with more knowledge
than simply how to run typewriter.
There are employers willing to pay
liberal salaries to stenograpners who
do not require constant prompting, v
says Miss Cranston. THE. average
girl in an Office does just what she is
told and nothing more. These are
the girls who receive few dollars
a week, and, as rule, they are not
worth cent more than they set.
The college girl has the equipment
to fill an important position, and
there is always the possibility that
she may become a private secre-
tary." Miss Cranston also believes
there is an opportunity for girls
with small capital in opening tea
rooms She says that women shop
pers are inclining more and more
to drop into such places in the after
noon, and investigation has convinced
her there is large profit in the tea
room business.-New York Press.

ON FOOD
The Right Foundation of Health.

Proper food is the foundation OF
health. People can eat improper
food for time until there is sud.
den collapse of the digestive organs,
then all kinds of trouble follow.
The proper way out of the difficult
ty is to shift to the pure, scientific
food, Grape-Nuts, for it rebuilds
from the foundation UP. A New
Hampshire woman says:
Last summer l was suddenly TAX
en- with indigestion and severe stom-
ach trouble and could not eat food
without great pain, my stomach was
SO sore l could hardly move about
This kept up until l was so miserable

Then a friend finally, after much
argument, induced me to quit Ey
former diet and try Grape-Nuts.

VERY soon the yellow coating dis

heavy feeling in my head disappeared
and my mind felt light and clear; the
Ianguid, tired feeling left, and alto

Strength and weight came back rap

with renewed ambition.
To-day l am a new woman in
mind as well as body, and l owe it all
to this natural food, Grape-Nuts.

TO PRESERVE A COOK BOOK.

TO PRESERVE A COOK BOOK.
Every housekeper knows how her
cook books suffer if they must be
taken to the kitchen. Some women
write off favorite recipes rather than
give a valuable cook book to care
less servants.
When this is out of the question
Or too much trouble, try the plan of
having a sheet of transparent ISM
glass cut little larger than the book
when opened. The corners can be
weighted by gluing on q heavy fiat
button to each corner. These help
to keep the book open at the desired
place. Insist upon having the sheet
placed over the open pages while the
recipe is being used.
A pane of glass can be used in the
same way, but there is danger of
cutting the fingers unless the edges
are bound with heavy paper or
piece of colored muslin.-New York
