For. after ALL the checked coat we
found in his closet might only have

FOOD VALUE OF MILK.
CONTAINS MATERIALS WHICH
CHILDREN NEED FOR GROWTH.
Cae Quart of Cows Milk Supplies
Practically as Much Protein and
Energy as Three Quarters
of Pound of Beef.

1t is a commonplace saying that
milk, or, to be more specific, cows
milk, Is perfect food This may be
taken to mean that it contains, first,
materials which children need for
growth; second, material which young
and old alike need for the repair Of
their bodily machinery; and, third,
materials which both need for fuel,
/. e., to provide with heat and
with the energy necessary for
work. 1t should not be understood,
however, to mean that 1t has these in
gradients in such proportions that it
can serve satisfactorily as an exclusive
food for grown person or even for a
child. Though it is the best substi-
tute for mothers milk, it must be
modified" more or less before it can
be used even for infant feeding with
good results.
1t is likewise a commonplace saying
that milk is a cheap as we'll as a nu-
tritious food. Just at present, with
prices of all kinds of foods rapidly
was to make the comparisons that
are necessary to show which particu-
lar foods are really cheap, but while
the prices of food materials vary the
composition of most of them remains
unchanged, and it is always possible
to compare their nutritive values. A
quart of milk supplies practically as
much of both protein and energy as
three-quarters Of a pound of beef of
average composition or eight average
eggs, and can generally be bought for
less money. In case milk is eight
cents quart, beef 20 cents pound,
and eggs "a cents dozen, ten cents
spent for milk will buy a little more
protein and much more energy than
ten cents spent for beef or ten cents
spent for eggs. Thus, while other ami
NAL foods than milk (meat, eggs and
to the diet it may be assumed that
milk may be used as an economical
substitute for any one Of them.
OF the vegetable foods, many flour,
for example) are found to be much
cheaper than milk, when both price
and nutritive value are taken into con-
sideration, and, as a matter of fact,
they always form the greater part of
the bulk of human food; but of the
animal foods which are usually COM
bined with the vegetable foods, milk
is one of the cheapest.
In spite of the fact that milk is rec
ognized as nutritious and a cheap
food, there seems to be general
tendency to think of it not as a pos
sible substitute for other more expen-
sive foods, but rather as an addition
to the bill of fare. To illustrate, milk
is frequently used as a beverage with
out the reduction of the amount of
meat or other proteid foods served.
From the point of view of the need of
the body, this may be considered ex-
travagant and the serving of a glass
of milk or of bowlful of soup or of
such desserts as custards and baked
milk, or the use of generous quantities
of milk or white sauce on vegetables,
offers an opportunity to cut down the
allowance of meats and eggs.-Caro-

METHOD OF CLARIFYING FAT
Objectionable Flavors Can Be Re-
moved From Fat by Means of
Potatoes.

Excepting where the purpose of
clarifying fat is to remove flavors, a
good method to follow is to pour boil
ing water over the fat, to boil thor
oughly, and then to set it away to cool.
The cold fat may be removed in a
solid cake and any impurities clinging
to 1t may be scraped off, as they will
be found at the bottom of the layer.
BY repeating this process two or three
times cake of clean, white fat may
be obtained.
A slight burned taste or similar OBJ
jectionable flavor often can be re-
moved from fat by means of potatoes.
After melting the fat, put into it thick
slices of raw potato heat gradually.
When the fat ceases to bubble and the
potatoes are brown, strain through a
cloth placed in wire strainer

RidicuIes American Women.

Katherine G. Bushby has written a
book, in which she tells English read
ers all about American women, and it
is somewhat interesting to see our
selves as others see US" She says
American women marry the men they
like, but of ''superlative temperament
al passion the American woman is un-
touched" She says that college wom-
en- generally marry poor men and are
drudges the rest of their lives, as the
wealthy men steer clear of the learned
woman. The writer draws an amusing
picture of the women in university
towns, wives of the professors, who
live on baked beans and Goldfish in or
der to save money enough to race
through Europe, doomed to come
home with memories of cheap board
ing houses and third-rate pensions, but
still yearning for art.

Ro,sun and Sir John Fisher.

Admiral Potter told a new one on
Sir John Fisher. When Sir John was
at the head of the British admiralty
he was most inaccessible. One day an
old boatswain appeared. He would
not take mo" for an answer. Finally
a secretary went into Sir Johns Of
flee, leaving the door ajar. He told
the admiral that a sailor demanded
an interview,
Tell him to go to hell" roared Sir
John
AYE. aye, sir piped the boatswain,
who stood in the doorway at re-
spectful salute; 81 know I'll meet you
there, sir. but want to talk to you

Newark, n. j. Especial Mrs.
Caroline B. Martin, accused of the
murder of her daughter, Mrs. Ocey
Snead, at East Orange year ago,
pleaded mon vult" to a charge of
manslaughter in the Court of Oyer
and Terminer of Essex county, at
Newark, Monday She made a scene
in court, and for a few minutes seem
ed likely to change her mind.
The plea of mon vult" is plea
of guilt without criminal intent
Mrs. Martin wanted the plea worded
involuntary manslaughter," but the
prosecutor, Wilbur A. Mott, and
Judge Jay Ten Eyck refused to per-
nit it, saying there was no such
crime under the laws of New Jersey.
Mrs. Mary Snead, who, with Mrs.
Martin and their sister, Miss Vir
ginia Wardlaw, was also indicted for
the girls murder, was not in court.
1t is understood that the indictment
against her will be nolle pressed and
she will be allowed to go free. Miss
Wardlaw starved herself to death in

August.
