a~ ADDYn asked Jack one evening, when you were a boy about my
size did your daddy tell you any bedtime sories?'
Sometimes" said daddy, with a smile But the most fn l
had vas with my grandfather, who was, of course your great
grandfather. He W al a very pleasant old man, and he "a very fond of chill
hours in lis eay chair and read his Bible. And that reminds me of d funny
thing which happened n day.
grandfather had been reading in his big Bible when Ill at onceh he missed
hiss pectacles. He looked about. but could not find them, 81 he called nut to
us youngsters: Henry, Nell, Edward! 1 have lost my glasses Whichever
of o youngsters shall find them shall have 10 cents
"You Ia be sure that we became very busy. My brother and l thought
most, L am afraid, of the 10 cents and what we should buy for them, but your
Aunt Nell was more generous, for she said to grandfather. I'll look for them,
grandpa, without any pay
"She began by looking through gTandfathers big Bible. It ws lying on
a small table right by grandfathers hand, but the specaces We're not to be
found among its pages. Then Nell began her search through grandfathers
pockets and in his hat and everywhere about his chair, but she could not dis
cove the glasses anywhere. In the meantime we boys were searching the
room. We looked on the mantepiece N the big table in the center O. the
DOL and o all the chairs. We even peeped into the fireplace, thinking
grandfather might have dropped his glasses when he got up to poke the fire.
"But 1t ws all of no use. Then my brother and 1 got down o n our hands
and knees to search the hoor My, how we hunted over every corneri We
overturned the rug and looked underneath it. Then we cept under the sofa
and pulled it away from the wall We moved every chair from its place, and
/ I'M afraid we made work for mother by failing to put them back properly.
After awhile W e ave 1T up and declared that W e did not believe those glasses
were % be found anywhere. We were sorry, too. for we wanted the 10 cents.
while W bad been hunting Nell had been very quiet. She was thinking
she was, climbing up o n grandpas knee to take the speeaces from his fore
head. oh, grandpa, grandpa she shouted, your glasses haven't been lost at

Hostesses at dinner must put guests
of honor at the right of themselves
and the hosts even II the usual sit
ting places are changed to suit the oc-
casion. When a married m en-
tertains at dinner she puts It her right
the husband Of the woman whom they
so wish to honor, and the wife must
be at the right of the host. To place
the guests of honor in any other posi-
ton is to deprive them entirely Of the
distinction intended.
With q round table the matter of
seating guests becomes simple, for
there is nc head and no foot, and the
desired position arrapges itself with
out change. Frequently the hostess
does not have a seat directly opposite
to the host, but In a circle this Is not
conspicuous.
With an oval or square table and
eight guests the arrangement becomes
complicated. Three persons on a side
means that the hostess must abandon
her usual place or she will have two
women together and two men, than
which nothing could show greater ig-
norance. There Is nothing for the
hostess then to do but to change her
position, leaving her husband in that
which he always occupies.
The woman guest of honor then goes
at bis right, and, If possible. the hus-
band is put at the right OF the hostess
on the side of the table. When all the
guests are married couples wen the
husband of the honor guest cannot be
at the hostess right, though she has
abandoned her regular seat.

come almost universal In this country,
the exception being in the homesteads
south of Mason and Dixon's line,
There q friend or relation is asked to
come and stay as long as convenient
and the stay sometimes stretches over
months or years. There are always
relations who are disposed to oyerlooh

hosts, and such Is the courtesy Of the
people OF this part of the country that
the visit only ends at the visitors will.
Instances could even be given im~ which
the visits of poor relations or friends
have lasted the rest on their lives. the
greatest courtesy and consideration be-
ing shown to them by host and hostess
even where they became helpless In
valids.

Disestibility of Foods.
Undigested food may be far more in
furious than many of the adulterants
or preservatiyes above mentioned 1t
Is wise, therefore, to give some thought
to the relative digestibility OF various
classes of food, especially IL ones oc-
cupation is sedentary.
Pork.-Whetber fresh or In sausages
or other form, pork is indigestible
and therefore inferior In nutritive val
ne. Furthermore, it is liable to CON
tain dangerous parasites, t'trichina
spiralis'' or the eggs of the tapeworm.
Pork should not be eaten except In the
form Of bacon or ham. II compelled To
eat it, cook 1t thoroughly.
The following is a list OF foods in
the order of their digestibiity. 1t
should be remembered that this list
holds good for the average individual.
Some people have strange antipathies
or idiosyncrasies against certain arti-
cies Of food. which they cannot for
that reason digest:
Roast mutton, sweetbreads, boiled
chicken. venison, soft boiled eggs, new
toasted cheese, fowl, turkey,
partridge and pheasant, lamb. wild
duck, oysters, periwinkies, omelet,
tripe, boiled sole, paddock. skate.

Protection of Food.
The article of food most likely to be
contaminated by disease germs is milk.
The bureau OF animal industry has
formulated Fifty rules for the guidance
OF milk dealers or dairymen. People
who keep their own cows would do
well to secure 4 set OF these rules.
Epitomized, they prescribe cleanliness
and care In the handling Of milk as
well as proper treatment, housing and
feeding OF cows. Scrupulous care
should be exercised in keeping clean
all utensils In which milk Is used. Milk
from a doubtful source should be
boiled or ~pasteurized before use. Milk
preserved with formalin or other
chemicals should not be used. Iceboxes
should be regularly cleaned with hot
soapsuds solution or strong solution
Of soda. Ice often contains germs and
spores which multiply as soon as they
get In q warm temperature.
Food should never be exposed to
contact with flies, insects. rats, mice,
ETC., as these pests often act as germ
carriers. Nothing is so narrowing to
the soul of a modern physician as a
kitchen filed with buzzing files while
food is left standing around, inviting
these germ carriers to alight and
promenade.
Cats and dogs should not be allowed
In the kitchen, and the less they are
in the house the better. They are
excellent germ carriers.
Food Aduiterants.
Many food adulterants have little
influence on health, except In so far
as they substitute inert or unappefiz-
ing material for that which is nour-
ishing and Of appetizing favor. Other
adulterants, however, are directly In
furious because Of their chemical eff
feet.
Some of the more commo adulter-
ants are as follows:
Whitewater has probably been used
ever since there was q milkman; harm
full by decreasing nutritious value.
Various p~reservatives, as salicylic acid,
formalin, boric acid, are also used and
are injurious.
Butter.-Sometfmes adulterated with
other fats, which possibly render 1t
less dlgestible.
Lard.-Cottonseed oil is the most
commonly used adulterant.
Canned Vegetables.-Saits of copper
and zinc are often used to impart a
brilliant green color. The normal color
for canned peas, beans, etc, is a dull
green. The brilliant hued varieties
should be avoided, as they may con-
tain sufficient copper to prove I'M
healthful.
Jellies, Jams, Etc.-Aniltne dyes are
often used to give brIgril colors. Such
preserves .aw open to suspicion In ex-
act proportion to the briiliancy Of the
coloring. P~reservatives are also used,
as borfc acid, salicyiic acid and ben-
zoate.
Beer.-Salicylic acid.
Temperance Drinks.-Aniline dyes.
Coffee.-Clay, spices, prune stones,
~cocoanut shells.
Olive Oil.-Cottonseed oil.
Meat, Poultry and Fish.-Borax and
otneg p~reservatives.
Many OF the coloring matters, pre-
servattves and aduiterants are not
prejudicial to health, but unless their
