Wanted to Know the cuInrit.

The following story was told recent
ly by Austin Haines to a party of
friends he entertained at luncheon:
Down In little Florida town two
negro families live in shanties about
a stones throw apart. They obtain
their drinking water from a shallow
open well located midway between the
two houses. A fence which separates
the two yards is built up to the well
on both sides. Every evening after
her days work is done, it is the GUS
tom of one of the negro mammies to
pick up buckets and go to the we'll for
water. One day the owner of the
property moved the fence back about
ten feet from where it originally stood.
That evening when Eliza started out
with her pail she fixed her eye on the
fence and made straight for it. Walk
ing hurriedly along the beaten path.
she plunged into the shallow well with
splash. Her screams brought i'm
mediate assistance, and as she climb
ed out and spied the fence ten feet
away she Indignantly exclaimed:
Now, who done moved dat well?'"

Ancient Mexico.

We know nothing of Mexico, of
course. prior to the year 1917, when
it was discovered by Fernando Cor
tez. The history of the City of Next
CO. as preserved in the native annals,
goes back to the year 1926, when it
was founded by the Aztecs, the mas
ter race of the country at the time of
the coming of the Spaniards. OF the
civilization" so-called, that existed
prior to the Spanish conquest. it can
be unfortunately asserted that it
was simply the higher type of bar
barism" and in no sense civilization
as we understand the term at the
present time. While considerably re-
moved from savagery, the social state
of the Aztecs was characterized by
much that was crude and cruel and
was far inferior to the social condii-
tons found in contemporary Europe.
A very good account of the old Next
can civilization is found in Fiske's
Discovery of America"

SUMMER VEGETABLES.

For those who enjoy a vegetable
garden of their own, no plant will give
more satisfaction than Swiss Chard.
1t is good the season through, during
the growing season. Cook it in boiling
water as any vegetable is cooked,
then dress 1t with butter, vinegar and
sliced hard cooked eggs as spinach is
served, or 1t may be served cold as a
salad. 1t will grow up again and again
new tender leaves. so that it is an
easy vegetable to care for.
Lettuce that has become too old
and tough for eating fresh may be
cooked and served as one does spin
ach. 1t makes pleasant variety for
the daily menu. Lettuce soup is an
other method of using the old tough
leaves. This is made as one does any
cream soup.
The color of peas and asparagus as
well as spinach and any of che green's
Is a brighter green if the kettle in
which the vegetable is cooked is left
uncovered during the cooking.
A pretty way of serving new peas
or asparagus is to prepare them with
rich white sauce, then hollow out
rolls. butter well inside and brown,
then fill the centers with the creamed
vegetable. and serve hot.
Spanish Beans.-Take a half cup of
sliced onions. stewed until tender, one
cup OF stewed beans, one cup of
stewed tomatoes Boil until thick
enough to serve on dinner plate.
Season with butter. salt and cayenne
pepper.
Young beets will cook in an hour or
less. Remove the skins after drop
ping them into cold water, then re-
turn to the fire and chop, season with
butter, pepper and salt and a few
drops of vinegar. Olive oil may be
used In place Of butter to advantage.
String beans are most palatable
cooked for an hour or more with a
slice of salt pork. Season with pep
per and salt, If needed add a little
vinegar, and serve hot.
Celery is nice stewed. Cook until
ender. then serve with a white sauce |
IN toast.

MENACE IN SPLITTING EVIL.
Allegation Is Made That the Habit 10
Responsible for 95 Per Cent of
Consumption Cases.

Ninety-ive per cent of our con-
sumption" says the North Carolina
state board of health, comes from
careless splitting, coughing and sneez-
ing.' particularly on the part OF the
consumptive, but also from people
who are apparently healthy Spit is
frequently laden with deadly disease
germs, particularly that of consump-
tives.
When one coughs, spits or sneezes,
a great multitude of tiny drops of
spittle are violently expelled from the
mouth and nose. The largest of these
drops can be readily seen. A large
number of smaller droplets can be
found if mirror or piece of glass is
held before the face when coughing
or sneezing. A tremendous quantity
OF still smaller droplets are dis
charged in the form of an invisible
spray or mist, which floats about in
the air for some time. Scientists
have found that when a man coughs,
splits or sneezes in large hall or
room where the air is quiet, these
tiny, invisible germ-laden droplets
Will float in the air for distance of
20 to 100 feet. These tiny droplets,
in the form of mist or spray, may be
breathed in by other people, or they
may settle on objects with which
they come into intimate contact, such
az food and clothing Viewed in this
light, such conduct is at least i'm
polite. Furthermore, it is dangerous
to the public at large to have careless
people actually coughing. sneezing and
splitting germ-laden matter into their
faces, even If it is invisible and. In
the form of fine mist"

ONCE MORE WORLDS GRANARY
Turkish Government INDUCES In Arr
bilious Schemes for Development
of Mesopotamia.

In spite of its external troubles. the
Turkish government is engaged in ad-
vancing the big schemes for the de-
velopment of Mesopotamia, which,
when completed, will result in the
transformation of an arid desert re-
gion as extensive as the Nile valley
into smiling cornfields.
The sum involved in the huge ir-
rfgation works which will be neces-
sary to accomplish this Transformation
is put at some S150,000,000, and the
immediate concern of the Turkish au-
thorities Is to place contract for the
initial stage of the schemes, which
provides for irrigation works in con-
nection with the barrage which con-
trolls the flood water of the River Eu-
pirates, at present under construc-
ton.
Some Idea of the vast Importance of
these schemes may be gathered from
the fact that their accomplishment
Will enable sufficient grain to be
grown to affect the wheat markets of
the whole world. In the olden days
the whole of the Euphrates delta was
irrigated, and the luxurious growth of
grain excited the wonder of Greek
travellers, who visited the East. Ac-
cording to Herodotus, the soil yielded
three hundred-fold. and there is no
doubt that these alluvial flats were
one of the chief granaries of the world.
The whole story of these regions is
romance. 1t is still the popular be-
lief that the Garden of Eden was sit
uated here. In any event, in Chaldean
times the delta was one vast garden;
the whole plain was studded with
prosperous and populous cities, set in
the midst of engirdling areas of wheat.
Indeed. 1t was from this very region
that wheat. at first found in wild
and uncultivated state. was taken and
gradually transplanted all over the
world

For sunstroke-loosen the clothing,
lay the patient In the shade and apply
ice water to the head. Keep the head
elevated.
For fainting, lay the patient on his
back with the head lowered. allow
fresh air to circulate and sprinkle
with cold water. Do not try to ad-

Fire in ones clothing-Do not run,
but lie down and roll over in a carpet

Fire in a building-Crawl on the

the head with something wooden and
wet. If possible.
Suffocation from inhaling illuminat-

a good heart stimulant any time to

Too Much Repetition.

I'm America" says a contempt
rary, I'VE need more things. Be it
ever SO homely. Smiths pond. II the
original name, is better than Fairy
Glen lake, or any other fanciful ap-
pellation. The difficulty is. there may
be dozen Smiths ponds or Smith
vflles in the same state. Even a good
name may be used too often For in
stance. there are said to be ten Lin
coin streets and avenues in the newly
amaFgamated city of Pittsburg. 1t is
the confusing repetition of names,
quite as much as the lack of invention
shown in bestowing them, that often
causes dissatisfaction with familiar
names"
