GREAT WAR CHIEF STARVING
Dire Straits of Matabele Warrior In

belle warrior, is living in dire straits

At the end of the last Matabele war
in 1896, the tribe was scattered, and
Lobengula came over to England with
a Savage South Africa show. For
three years he toared this country,
and then got an engagement in a Man.

ried an Irish woman, and in the fol.
lowing year he went to work in pit

Stafford he has ]ived the life Of a col.

in the mine, and became proficient in
his lob.
The Rev. s. d. Bees, vicar of the
parish in which Lobengula lives, says
the circumstances in which the son of
the African chief had been reduced
suggested very lamentable disregard
of English tradition OF generosity to

WHOLESOME FOODS
= At SMALL COST
BY ia. HUsIK, M. D.
Cocoa and Chocolate.

OF the several beverages used at meals
cocoa and chocolate are the two that
have food value. Cocoa is the fruit of
the cocoa tree. which grows in abundance
in the tropical countries. Chocolate is
made from cocoa beans by the addition
of sugar and some starchy materials.
Cocoa grows in the form of a bean, and
several rows of these beans are held to-
gether in a single pod. When removed
from the pod the beans are allowed to
undergo process Of fermentation called
sweating" and are then exposed to the
sun to dry in order to develop their fine
favor. Roughly speaking, cocoa contains
% per cent of protein matter that is,
vegetable meat; % per cent of fat and
nearly 80 per cent of starch.
Together with the sugar and milk used
in the preparation Of the beverage it
becomes highly nutritious as well as
palatable drink, far superior to either tea
or coffee, Tea and coffee are wholly de-
void Of all nutritive substances. They are
used entirely for the flavor, and. more
over they are stimulantS, and as such
are frequently harmful. while cocoa and
chocolate are practically free from any
stimulating efforts.
From what has been said 1t is easy to
set that though relatively cocoa and
chocolate are dearer than tea or coffee,
yet as foods they are cheaper. Speaking
OF the value Of cocoa, the famous German
food chemist iIiebig has said:
'It is a perfect food, as wholesome as
delicious. 1t Is highly nourishing and
readily digested. and is fitted to repair
wasted strength, preserve health and pro-
long life
A very cheap form of cocoa is that
made from cocoa shells. 1t is prepared
in the usual way, and is nutritious as well
as cheap and wholesome.

Latest American Fashions

There should be certain indefnable air
of intimacy about the successful house

informal afternoon affairs at home. Silk

lovely and suitable for the purpose. i

It is natural to expect warm weather to
bring about revival of the white blouse
for coat suits. But it is rather remark
able how universal the wash waist is this
early in the season and how the blouse
that matches the suit is rated as second
class. Even with the most elaborate
suits the bodice is of white lace; in semi
elaborate suits the waist is white wash
net, but with all kinds Of everyday suits
the white blouse ranks above all others.
There must always be a division of
opinion on it's beauty, as there will al
ways be unanimous opinion on its need.
In all warm climates it is necessary to
have wash waists. and for some reason
the American has always made the white
shirt waist her very own; no matter
whether the women Of other nations wore
it or disapproved of it. the American
woman never forsook it. 1t is difficult

doubly dear to Johnny Chuck, even be
fore it was finished. And where de

home? 1t was clear way over on the
edge of Farmer Browns Old orchard
Yes, sir, after all the fuss Johnny CHUCK
had made over any other Chuck living
on the Green Meadows. ana after driving
the old gray Chuck back to the Old Pas

Meadows himself!
1t wasn't of his own accord that Johnny
Chuck had left the Green Meadows. No
indeed! He loved them too Well fol-

and although he had grumbled a little
he had followed her up to the old

Brown and Farmer Browns boy and

He had never been so far from his

in this very old orchard that Polly Chuck
had been born. and she knew every part
Of 1t. Johnny felt better when he found
that out. So he set to work to build a
home and this time he meant business.
Polly Chuck could change her mind as
many times as she pleased, but this was
going to be their home, and this was
where they were going to live.
Now. Johnny Chuck had grown wise
in the ways Of the world since he first
ran away from the home where he was
born. Twice since then he had built a
new home, and now this would be better
than either of the others. He paid no
heed to Polly when she pouted because
he did not dig where she wanted him to.
He went from tree to tree, big old apple
trees they were, and at the very last
tree, way down in corner near a tum-
bled-down stone wall, he found what he
wanted.
Two spreading roots gave him chance
to dig between them. Polly watched him
get ready for work and she pouted still
more

grassy place, and a lot easier to dig, -
said she.
