How to Make Tea.

Tea is responsible for many ills.
especially among women. While 1t is
the simplest matter in the world to
make tea properly, It is unhealth-
fully prepared more often than 9TH
erwise. Tea is absolutely unfit to
drink when the brewing process has
proceeded beyond "a certain point and
tanning is liberated, but IL care is
taken the evils of moderate tea drink
ing may be reduced to minimum
The old rule which calls for q tea
spoonful for each person and one
for the pot is unthinkable from the
standpoint of the modern detitian
Such a brew is ruinous to skin, stom-
ach and nervous system.
To make tea properly and as near
ly as can be hyglenically buy good
tea, preferably black Heat the re-
ceptacle in which the tea is to be
made with hot water, use one tea
spoonful or less of tea to a pint of
boiling water, allow the water to re-
main in contact with the leaves FIVE
minutes, then pour off and use al
once. Never put the teapot di-
rectly in contact with intense heat.
A very safe and satisfactory way of
making tea is by the use of the tea
ball, as very little tannin contami-
mates the beverage thus made. The
abuse of tea Is common and a fertile
source of serious nervous disease.
The habit of giving tea and coffee to
young children is little short OF
criminal.
While on the subject of beverages
let me remind you of buttermilk. The
beauties of three generations back
loked on buttermlk as invaluable aid
to their charms. They used 1t as
q wash and they drank it freely.
While it does not appeal to our mod
ern ideas of cleanliness to bathe in
It, we still consider buttermilk one
of the most healthful foods.
Let me suggest a few luncheon
menus for our girls who want to
look wholesome and fell well. For
instance try q glass of sweet milk
or buttermllk with Boston brown
bread, between thinly cut slices of
which cream cheese has been spread.
If these sandwiches are made at
home, variety may be obtained by
adding to the cheese few chopped
nuts, a little chopped sweet pepper,
a few pistachio nuts, etc.-Dr. Jean

long as unframed youths get together
on a to gn lot and, without training,
try TO play football But so far as the
well-trained college team, they de-
clare they do not anticipate even the
very few deaths that have occurred
in the past.
The following men have the fate of

1t was Captain Nesbitt, of West

adopted.
A canvas Of the sentiment through

For Real Sausage

If the state board of health
follows the recommendations OF
a committee of chemists and food
inspectors, there will be no more
corn meal used in Sausage-that
is, unless the sausage is sold as
cereal sausage. At the present
time there is said to be a great
deal of corn meal used in sausage
ITO give flavor. p" That was the
original intention of mixing meal
with sausage, to give it flavor.
Then someone discovered that by
soaking the meal he could add
greatly to the weight of the Sau-
sage at a lower cost. Then
many dealers and manufacturers
began to try it. 1t is said by the
inspectors that at the present
time a large percentage OF sauS-
age is nothing more than corn
meal. The board of health will
not prohibit the manufacture and
sale of sausage with corn meal
in it but it will likely provide
that all such sausage shall be
labelled cereal sauSage"-that
is the recommendation Of the
committee and the board is in the
habit of acting on these recon-
mendations.
Another thing to be recommend
ed by the committee will be the
prohibition Of the sale of wheat
and rye mixed as wheat. The
food inspectors learned that
many elevator men were buying
rye in large quantities but that
they never appeared to sell any,
They began to investigate and
found that it was a common plan
to mix a hundred bushels Of rye
with a couple Of thousand bush,
els of wheat. Rye is much cheap
er than wheat and the grain In
spectors permit a certain percent
age of rye in wheat when they
grade it. The board of health
will therefore enter the field OF
the grain inspection department
and bring about a few reforms.
There is no department safe from
the never-tiring board of health
which has DR.. S. ]. Crumbine at
at its head. The committee will
also recommend that the sale Of
extracts which are artifically col
ored shall be prohibited. 1t is
probable that the board will act
favorably on all of these recon.
mendations.

That the wheat is going into
winter quarters in first class
condition is now an assured fact.
An almost steady rain of forty
eight hours last week added to
by almost an all days rain Mon
day, during which time about 6
inches of water fell, has so thor
oughly soaked the ground that
with ordinary winter weather the
wheat needs no rain until spring.
This is a satisfactory condition
for this section of the country,
placing our wheat crop for
1910 several months nearer har-
vest with excellent prospects.

Kansas is Short Of Cash

Kansas is getting pretty close
to the bottom of its pocketbook.
The state probably will not be
able to pay cash in settlement of
all of its October bills, and it is
certain that it can't pay cash
for its November bills. It is
probable that the cash will be
available for the December &C.
counts and to take up the unpaid
warrants issued during this and
next month.
The states running expenses
are about a quarter of a million
dollars a month. The treasurer
Ghas about $4,000 on hand, and
draft on the counties which
will be made in a few days will
produce less than 100000 max
ing a total Of $4,000 to pay
bills amounting to IA million
dollars. The warrants will have
to be stamped mot paid for
want of funds"
The reason for this condition in
the states financial affairs is
the insufficient tax levy of a yea
ago which was made before Gov.
ernOr Stubs took office. The taz
commission did not make a state
levy of sufficient amount to pay
the bills Of this year and alsC
enough to pay the bills for No
vember and a part of October.
