Why We Are Right-handed.

One of the professors at a we'll
known agricultural college has figured
it out that If you are left-handed it is
a sign that your ancestors were not
good fighters.
Most persons are right-handed,'
says he. "Only one in every twenty
Is left-handed. Why are people right
handed? They may have been born
that way, it is true; but why?
Away back in the beginning the
chief occupation Of man was fighting.
In battle he carried shield II one
hand and a weapon in the other. 1t
was not much work to carry the shield,
but the quick action required by the
hand and arm which did the fighting
soon developed that arm. 1t also de
veloped the nerves and the half Of the
brain that governed the right side Of
the body. Those who shielded their
left side-thus protecting the heart
were the ones who usually came out
victorious. Down through the ages
this selection continued, the right
hand gradually becoming more prof
cient"

In the removal, washing, and replac-

Improvement. This duty is usually

there is the use of the service truck.
This is a small table of two or three
shelves, mounted on rather large
wheels, used to transport dishes be-
tween the table and the serving pan

machines, but for the average house
hold they are not required. However.
every household can use, and should
adopt. drying racks. These may be
easily made. If made of metal and
glass, with shelves of round wooden
rods, lamps placed near the bottom
will give sufficient heat to dry dishes
quite rapidly. The drying rack should
be placed near the washer. so that as
the dishes are washed they may be
placed within. The washing and dry

FOR THE AFTERNOON TEA
New Sandwich Idea That Carries With
IL Distinct Sense of the
Appetizing.

America has the best oysters and
salads of any country in the world.
Mrs. Lily Haxworth Wallace, the Eng
llsh cooking expert, told the women at
a pure food show cooking lesson at
New York.
The best way to cook an oyster,
said Mrs. Wallace, lis not to cook 1t
at all There is an English saying,
The more you do to an oyster the
more it will do to you That means
mat the more you cook it the less
nourishment you get"
But she gave them recipes to cook
the best oyster in the world, the
american oyster. If they were not
content 10 eat it raw. The American
salad is the best in the world, Mrs.
wallace says, because America has
the greatest variety of fruits, vege-
tables, and other products of the gar
den and field. She gave the women
recipe for a new sandwich that a
number of them said they were going
to try Immediately for afternoon tea.
Two ounces of almonds are sailed
and ground for the egg and almond
sandwich and passed through the
meat chopper. Two finely minced hard
boiled eggs, blended with two table
spoonfuls of butter, are added, and the
whole is seasoned and spread between
thin slices of bread

CHAPTER VII.
In Which the Parson and Mr.. Pepper
Declare Their Independence.


That afternoon, when dinner was
over, the Reverend John decided to
make. few duty calls. The first of
these he determined should be on the
Peppers.
The Pepper house was situated just
off the main road on the lane leading
over the dunes to the ocean and the
light. It was a small building, it's
white paint dingy and storm beaten,
and its little fenced-in front yard dot
ted thickly with clumps Of silver-leaf
saplings. A sign, nailed crookedly on
a post, informed those seeking such in
formation that within was to be found
"Abishai G. w. Pepper, Tax Collector,
Assessor, Boots and Shoes Repaired"
And beneath this was fastened a shin
gle with the chalked notice. Salt Hay
for Sale"
The boot and shoe portion of the
first sign was a relic Of other days.

The Hat Question in 1890.

The Handel festival was originally
given in Westminster Abbey, and the
official notice of 1890 announced that
mo ladies will be admitted with hats,
and they are particularly requested to
come without feathers and very small
hoops, if any" AS ecclesiastical law
demands that female worshippers shall
cover their heads in church, this regu-
lation was curiously anomalous A
suggestion in regard to ladies' head
gear was also made by Sir Frederic
Cowen in 1906. when he gave it as his
opinion that the ladies might discover
In their wardrobe some extremely
fascinating fiat hats" which would
not obstruct the view. The fasclnat-
ing fat hats" were, however cnleHy
conspicuous by their absence. owing

Is discouraging to wait three or four
weeks while the pair Of boots one has
left TO be resoled are forgotten In a
corner.
The minister walked up the dusty
lane, lifted the Pepper gate, swung it
back on it's one hinge, and knocked
at the front door. No one coming in
answer to the knock, he tried again.
Then from somewhere in the rear OF
the house came the sound of human
voice
Hi" it called family. Whoever
you be, don't bust that door down.
Come round here"
Ellery came along" as far as the
angle where the ell joined the main
body of the house. So far as he could
see every door and window was closed
and there were no signs of life. How
ever, he stepped to the door, a green
painted affair of boards, and ventured
another knock
Don't start that poundin' again!"
protested the voice. Come round to
tother side where / be-"
So around went the Reverend John,
smiling broadly. But even on "tother
side" there was no one to be seen.
And no door, for that matter.
"Whyi' exclaimed the voice, iii
faint Mr.. Ellery! How dye do? Glad
to see you, Mr.. Ellery. Fine day, amt
it? Here / be at this window"

SELL ONLY THE FRESH EGGS
Some Farmers Deliberately Impose on
Small Merchants by Giving
Goods Known to Be Stale.
By A. C. PHILLIPS, Kansas.)

(By a. G. PHILLIPS, kansas.)
Selling eggs is one of the handiest
ways for the farmer to get cash
or trade return for his produce, during
all parts of the year, and if he can
increase the efficiency of the machin-
cry which produces and handles these
eggs he is putting into his pocket good
hard cash.
Almost every housewife who is
compelled to buy eggs constantly
clamors for some method which she
may pursue in order to always get
