FAMILY OF FIVE
All Drank Coffee From Infancy.

It is a common thing in this country
to see whole families growing up with
nervous systems weakened by coffee
drinking.
That is because many parents do
not realize that coffee contains drug
-caffeine-which causes the trouble
(The same drug is found in tea.)
There are five children in my fam
ily," writes an Iowa mother, "all Of
whom drank coffee from infancy up
to two years ago.

and were advised to quit coffee. We
did so and began to use Postum. We

"Our eleven-year-old boy had weak

WHY NOT THE BEEFsTEAK?
Theater Goer Who Did Not Care for
Candy Thought He Was Within
His Rights.

When the curtain went down after
row took a package from under the
seat, and, opening it up, disclosed a
large beefsteak, a knife, a fork and
a plate. He started to eat it in the
customary manner when one Of the
ushers tapped him on the shoulder and
said:
Pardon me, sir, but we don't per-
NIT that here"
why not?"
Its against the rules"
Did anybody ever do it before
You'd better find out what the rules
are"
The usher was nonpulsed and went
away to get the manager.
What do you mean, sir. by eating
that beefsteak here? You will have
to get out"
The man got up and proceeded to
go out, doing up his beefsteak care
fully.
1T is all right, of course" he said,
''as long as you object, but
He waved his arm around where
numerous young ladies were gorging
themselves on candy.
You don't object to those people
doing what they want. 1 don't care
for candy myself, and considering how

MUTTON A HEALTHFUL FOOD
Investigation Has Clearly Demon
strated Its Value as Diet for
the Human Race.

Evidence of the value of mutton,
according to C. F. Langworthy, the
government nutrition expert, has
been strengthened recently by such
work as that Of the United States de-
partment of agriculture, whose re-
ports of meat inspection show that 1t
has been necessary to reject relative
ly few mutton carcasses as unfit for
food, and that the sheep is particular
ly free from diseases which render
meat desirable.
Mutton and lambs are commonly
believed to digest readily without
causing disturbance" says Mr.. Lang
worthy in his report on Mutton and
It's Value in the Diet" "and both ex-
perience and the results of scientific
Investigation seem to bear out this be-
life. To this may be ascribed the COM
mon use of mutton and lamb in in
valid dietetics, as well as in tie daily
fare"

STRANGE Boundaries.

The village of Rake, in England, is
situated on the border lines of Hamp-
shire and Sussex, part being in. one
county and part in the other. The
boundary cuts through houses and
gardens, with some very odd results.
This is peculiarly so in the case Of
the Flying Bull public house. This inn
is partially in the parish of Rogate, in
Sussex, and partly In that Of Liss, in
Hampshire.
The license is taken out in the coun-
ty of Hants, but the bar is in Sussex
and the liquor stores in Hampshire.
On the occasion of beating the parish
boundaries. the house becomes quite a
thoroughfare.
Most curious Of all, when a dance
takes place in this house, the musical
performs play in Sussex, while the
dancing goes on in Hampshire.

Use for Soda.

Does everyone know the value and
saving of sal soda? One tablespoonful
in a tub of water will save half the
labor and not harm the clothing, half
the amount with cut soap in the boiler
will whiten them. For cleansing lamp
chimneys one teaspoonful in kettle Of
water, put back on the stove. soak
half an hour, wash in the usual way
and no fly specks can remain. For
cleaning churn, milk bottles, pals or
pans, tablespoonful in pan of water,
the result will be sweet, clean utensils.
No thick grease will remain in the
sink If soda is used with brush or
cloth. For tea and coffee pots, small
piece of soda with cold water, let
draw an hour, rinse and will be like
a new pot. Burned kettles or pots
will be found easy to wash if soaked
in soda water on the back of the stove
and finally cleaned. Dishes dry easier
and polish easier If soda is used in the
water.

wreck in a western state, and after
the injured had been cared for, a man
fastened up to one of the doctors.

MAKES A DAINTY PRESERVE
Combination of Green Tomatoes and
PineappIes Results In a Jam
That Is Excellent.

Here's another dainty for the win
ter preserve closet. Are you in the
habit of making jam of green toma-
toes and pineapples? If you make
some this year, just try spreading 1t
on thin slices of buttered bread and
see what delicious sandwiches you
will have for your tea table.
A rule, said to be excellent, directs
the maker to cut firm green tomatoes
into thin slices and boil them until
tender adding granulated sugar in
the proportion of three-quarters of a
pound to every pound of fruit. Weigh
this, when done, and for every IA
pounds of tomatoes add the juice of
large tin of pineapples. Mash the
pineapple to a pulp, then boil all to-
gether for a quarter of an hour, stir
ring constantly. Dissolve one-half
ounce of gelatin for each IA pounds
of jam and add. Let the mixture
come to a boil, remove from the fire
and pour into jars. Let it stand un
covered for "a hours.

almost master her. She would hug up
the little red baby and murmur Mis-
souri," and then daddy would growl
playfully to Arkansas" 1t went on
that way for a long time and at last
she remembered that Sedalia was in
Missouri, so she felt glad and really
named the older baby Sedalia. But
she could think of nothing to match

that the father would name the other
baby Little Rock"

| KILL BEASTS OF PREY
FOREST RANGERS WAR ON THE
PREDATORY ANIMALS.
Not Only Save stockmen Many Thou
sands of Dollars Yearly, but Afford
Protection to the Milder
Class of Game.

During the past fiscal year 1856
predatory animals were killed by fed
eral officers on the national forests, &C
cording to an actual count of car
cases. An indeterminate number of
animals, whose bodies were not found,
are presumed to have died from poi
son.
The rangers bag of beasts Of prey
this year, as shown by forest service
figures, was made up Of 206 bears,
3,541 coyotes, 1873 mountain lions, 81
lynx, 583 wild cats, "a wolves and 81
wolf pups. The figures indicate that
the national forests are becoming
cleared of wild animals that prey upon
domestic live stock and game, for the
forest ranger fills in odd moments be-
tween other jobs by thinning out ''un-
desirable citizens" of the animal world.
Wolves are said to cause greater losses
to western stockmen than any other
of the predatory animals. 1t is esti-
mated that family of wolves will de-
stroy about $4,000 worth of stock per
annum and that one able-bodied wolf
costs the grazing industry $500 sea-
son. The wolves are of two classes
the smaller prairie wolves or coyotes
and the larger gray, black, or timber
wolves, called "lobos." These latter are
the great stock destroyers against
which the campaign of the rangers
has been waged.
The methods of hunting wolves In
the west vary. On the plains wolves
are sometimes hunted with dogs and
horses, but this way is considered
expensive and often dangerous. This
sport is described by Roosevelt in his
earlier hunting books. On national
forests the rangers either set out pol
son or baited steel traps or, by watch
ing trails and hiding near VOLTS den,
are able to shoot one or both of the
old wolves when they return from
to the forest service, can the number
of wolves be kept down so we'll as by
finding their dens and destroying the
young.
The skins of the predatory animals
killed by the rangers are either kept
as souvenirs or sold for a price or for
bounty. Wolf skins in the west are
said to bring from 81 to S. for robes
and rugs; mountain lion skin, SO to
$40; and bear skin anywhere from
$40 to $3.50, according to size and spe-
cies. In addition to this there are
bounties on bears, lions and wolves
in most of the western stock states.
Wyoming, in ten years, has paid out.
it is said, over $65,000 in bounties on
wolves alone and $4,000 more on
coyotes and mountain lions. Through
his activity against these pests the
forest ranger, it is said, has saved
the stockmen many thousands Of dol
lars during the year, while the pro-
lection to game animals, such as deer,
elk and antelope, is of almost equal

one-half pint OF water, one teaspoonful

to a boil and allow to boil for two or
three minutes. When cool it Is ready
to serve. 1t is very appetizing and
much purer and cheaper than any 9th
or imitation of maple syrup.

add two tablespoons -four, one tea
spoon salt and dash white pepper and
stir in a smooth paste, then add gradu-
ally to it one pint milk and cook until

Creamed Potatoes.

When dreaming potatoes, cut them
cold boiled, then sprinkle generously
with -four and mix all together. Add
the amount of cold milk desired and
put all on the fire to cook. AS it heats,
stir gently. 1t will thicken without
Jumps and be smooth and creamy. This
does away with the disagreeable task
of making thickening, and the whole
is completed in half the time and with
half the work. The same method may
be used when frizzling beef or cream
ing turkey, chicken or Goldfish. 1t is
not necessary to melt cocoa before
adding it to the milk If you put the
ingredients together before heating.
