incides with their mere one or two
narrow-brained theories.
In conclusion let us comparatively
analyze this subject.
Vegetation life intelligently gathers
it's nutrition from the inorganic ele-
ments composing the air, water and
planetary-earthly elements, than man
allows animals to gather their nutrl-
ton from this highly organized Vegeta-
ton life while intelligent man, who
still persists in consuming animal flesh,
turns round and eats the animal which
gives man his food elements third hand
from nature, since vegetation gets 1t
first hand, the animal second hand,
and animal flesh eating man third
hand. Hence may we not at least be
second hand in our choice without the
narrow censure of mere Wiley or
Longworthy?
Still the writer cautions those who
do not know just how to scientifically
combine their vegetation foods to eat
some animal foods until they do learn
just how it is done, but always eat
wild game, never domesticated animal
flesh.
Remember, we have not relearned
Just how to feed ourselves intelligent
ly. Then how can we be capable of
feeding an animal intelligently? An
animal body deprived Of needed ele-
ments is a diseased body; besides the
poor creature is boxed and buffeted in
a railroad car for weeks and because
too expensive to care for after it's re-
moving from the car, they are slaugh-
tered in the highly nervous condition
without rest, hence disease is eaten
by the consumer.
Readers, each and all, clip this and
send it to Drs. Wiley and Longworthy,
Washington, D. c. 1t may penetrate
their understanding and do some good;
since we sadly need and must have
data relative to just what elements all
kinds of vegetation life contains, in
order to build for ourselves the right
kind of mental structure and vital
bodily organisms to think, speak and
act out of and for developing character,
enthusiasm and thrift.

HOW TO GET RID OF ANTS

What is one ants meat is, apparent
ly another ants poison. At any rate,
a remedy which proves efficacious in
one case may fail absolutely the next
time it is tried. Fortunately there are
many remedies, and the houSekeeper is
almost certain to find one with which
she will succeed If she has sufficient
persistence. One of the most common
plans recommended is that of mixing
equal parts of tartar emetic and sugar
Give events worth of the former is
enough) moisten it with cold water
and set around in shallow dishes in the
cupboards frequented by ants. Other
away by spreading cayenne pepper,
borax, salt or ground cloves on the
cupboard shelves.
Perhaps one of the simplest plans is
the most satisfactory. If a sponge be
plunged in water, sqeezed until the
moisture does not drip from it, and
then sprinkled literally with sugar, it
will prove most attractive bait for
the ants. The sponge should be placed
in saucer and kept in the same place
for several days. The pores of the
sponge will quickly be filled with the
ants, and if the sponge, saucer, ants
and all, be placed under a hot water
faucet, the number of the pests will
be reduced in a marvelously short time.
Oil of SaSSafras is sometimes used
with success, a few drops being placed
on the shelves or on the floor where
the ants are found; only a few cents
worth of the oil is needed, and the odor
is not at all Objectionable to most peo-
pie. Gasoline sometimes proves effec-
tive If the hole where the ants enter
the house can be found. A little gas
oline poured into this hole generally
checks the invasion promptly. Care
must be taken not to use the gasoline
where there is a fire or light of any
kind, as it is very explosive. Some
people have substituted turpentine for
the gasoline with equally good results.

RECIPES FOR sAcHETs

Sachets to impart a delicate and de-
licious fragrance to the lingerie are
almost a necessity to the dainty wo-
man, and while externally these may
be made of very inexpensive materials
it is absolutely necessary that the
various odors used should be the best
and purest it is possible to obtain.
The most convenient way to make
these sachets is in size that will ex-
actly cover the bottom of the drawers
they are intended to perfume. Any
thin, loose-textured material, from
cheesecloth to china silk, is suitable
for the outside covering, but the most
inexpensive of these may also prove
the prettiest if little care is taken in
making them. Cut the material the
desired size, place over it a thin layer
OF cotton batting and haste it lightly
in place, then sprinkle rather thickly
with the preferred sachet. Adjust the
top piece, basic or pin it in place, haV-
ing the pins or stitches quite close to-
gether to keep the batting in position,
then thread darning needle with the
narrowest baby ribbon and tie it at
equal distances in the daintiest of little
knots, just as If one were tying a quilt.
Bind it all around with a piece of rib
bon wide enough to fasten smoothly,
and even if made of plain cheesecloth
it will be both pretty and sweet. Pale
pink, blue and lavender are the pref
tiest colors, or cream color tied with
ribbon in any of these shades. Do
not tie it too closely.
The sweetest of all sachets may be
made by the following rule:
Mix together one-half pound of Flor
entine orris root (being careful to buy
only that which is fresh and sweetly
reminiscent of Violets), one-half pound
of ground rose leaves, two ounces of
powdered tonquin bean, half a grain of
musk and two drops of essence of al
monds. Pass the mixture through a
coarse sieve two or three times to
thoroughly mix them.
A slightly stronger yet very sweet
odor resembles the patchouli perfume
beloved by our grandmothers. Mix to-
gether one-half pound of patchouli
leaves ground fine, one-fourth of
pound of lavender flowers we'll pound
ed, one-fourth of a pound of ground
cedar wood and one ounce of essence
of patchouli. Sift through a coarse
sieve and sprinkle it quite literally
over the cotton batting. This is also
an excellent moth preventive if sprin-
killed. well over furs and woolens when
packing them away.
A delightful and delicate old-fash-
toned sachet that rarely fails to carry
ones mind back to the sweet fragrance
of our grandmother's sheets and pill
low cases is made thus:
Pound thoroughly one pound of law
ender flowers and one-fourth of a
pound of gum benzoin and add to them
one-fourth of an ounce of best essence
of lavender. Mix and sift as before

SMART BATHING ACCESSORIES

Bathing slippers are no longer hid
eous, unshapely things. They are still
made of canvas and sometimes of satin,
but they are cut on trim pump lines
and have we'll cut soles of cork. They
are trimmed, too, with a little frill of
ribbon or tape at the instep curve and
have long ribbons or tapes which lace
across the instep and around the ankle
in a truly sandal style, setting off
pretty ankle in a most charming man.
ner and concealing the defects of a
homely one in a surprisingly simple
way.
Another novelty which marks the i'm
provement over the bathing days of
some time back is the bag of water
proof satin, rubber lined with good
strong leather straps. Into this goes the
suit, the cap, slippers, stockings ana
many other things which the bathing
girl needs.
What has she then to carry back and
forth to the beach? No longer that
hideous bundle done up in dripping
wet towel, but, instead, q nice, trim
little bag almost like the shawl strap
she takes travelling.
The days are passed when the bath
ing girl carried an old black umbrella
or any sort of a parasol she happened
to have to the beach to ward off the
sun. Her parasol these days matches
her bathing suit. In fact, 1t is one of
the new fads of the hour. For in
stance, if her suit is black, with a
black and white checked trimming. her
parasol, too, is black with border
of the same checked silk. or, If ner
suit has bright red trimmings, bright
red silk band is added to the edge OF
her parasol, and often there is unique
cut as well as a color touch in these
new bathing parasols.
Altogether the bathing girl of today
presents a very smart appearance on
the beach, quite different from that
of several years ago.
