If they learn the art of chewing even people whose food expense is only threepence day can make their meals last long time. A chewer. according to dietetic experts, is one who chews all things so long as they have any taste left in them. Gladstone. we are told. used to take thirty-two bites to every mouthful of food. The modern school of chewers would regard this as dangerously rapid eating. Il have tried chewing conscientiously." writes Mir. Eustace Miles.

LODGED THE WASPS.
Simple Trick by Which the Woodsmen
 Escaped Stinqinq.

A man on his first trip into the wilds and marshes of an unknown country with the United States drainage engi- neers was struck by a unique method they have to escape from the attack of wasps and hornets. The country traversed is generally covered with thick undergrowth, and path has to be cut through this all along the line. So when big wasp nest is reached there is very little warning, some times the aXmen cutting into big one with their machetes.
 The person relating this experience was some sixty feet behind the ak men with the instrument when all at once the two axmen dropped in their tracks as if they had been struck by thunderbolt. The man behind and the two chainmen did likewise. While they were lying prone on the grass and wet marsh they heard what heads One after the other they came with angry zips. When things had quieted down bit work was con tinued, and the new man found that to escape from Wasps or hornets the thing to do was to drop instanter. The insects seem to be so mad that they fly in straight lines along a level and do not have time to hunt around for you.
 It is said that hornets. are not so prone to follow this rule as waspS, but tine wasps never vary. Men have been stung to death by hornets, and horses and mules likewise.--Chicaso Record Herald.

NAMING A TOWN.
Concord Was Selected After Fifty
 Years of Controversy,

The name of Concord, N. H., was which lasted fifty years. In 1925 the land now within its bounds was grant ed to the colonists under the name of Peacock by the colony of Massachu- setts: This claim was disputed by the colony of New Hampshire, which two the township of Bow. 1733 Massachu- setts incorporated Peacock into a township named Rumford, and for {. .more than forty years a fierce legal controversy was carried on. No agree ment could be reached, and the mat ter was taken to the authorities in England, but even then there was no satisfactory nor permanent settlement.
 In the face of an evident leaning toward the claims of Bow, both ill England and in America, the little band of colonists in Rumford fought on valiantly. md in 1765 an act of incorporation was granted to the in- habitants of Rumford. This was still highly unsatisfactory because it only made them a parish in the town of Bow.
 The controversy continued until 1774. when it was finally settled and an independent town was formed under the name of Concord. It was due to the devotion of the little band of settlers to their cause and the unity which existed among them that the independent incorporation of the town was finally obtained. and it was emil nently fitting that the concord which existed between them during the strug- gle of nearly fifty years should be memorialized in their towns name.- Ladies' Home Journal.

FEMALE OF THE SPECIES"

When the prime minister of Great Britain was horsewhipped by mili- tant suffragettes in Scotland the oth- CT day Americans wondered what Mrs. Pankhurst would say. This is her comment: Tt is perfectly prop CT and another step in the cause for which we are fighting
 What sort of perverted moral sense has this "leader' of the woman suf-- frage movement in England, that she can glibly sanction such humiliating and painful acts as the attack on Mr. Asquith? By their very sex and gen tleness women are protected from re- taliation on the part of men in phy- sical encounters. yet the militants in Great Britain, led by the notorious Mrs. Pankhurst, deliberately take ad- vantage of the sanctuary of their sex to do bodily violence to the prime minister of England. Thus do they unsex themselves. Thus do they for felt the respect of men. Thus do they demonstrate their lack of the sane and reasonable attributes which are the mark of those who alone should be allowed to vote.

SPEAKING OF EGGS.

While the prevailing prices prevent many folks from eating as many eggs as they would like, there is, as yet, no law against talking about them. The egg prices are abnormally high and dealers and consumers alike are trying to ascertain the cause. The following from the New York Jour nal of Commerce throws some light upon the distribution of the money in volved in getting the egg from the producer to the consumer:
 "A syndicate of Manhattan cold storage spectators has sold to a wholesale grocery house here 10000 cases of cold storage eggs at a net profit of $75,000. Since the grocer made the purchase several days ago, his eggs have gone up enough to guarantee him a net profit of $18O,OOO at the latest market quotation. The eggs originally cost the speculator Is cents a dozen. The specula- ton dealt with only one weeks nor nal consumption of eggs in New York City"
 Here is net profit of $255,0O0 on the egg supply of New York City for one week, above the original pro- fit of the middlemen who handled the eggs between the producers and the cold storage concerns. Fancy, select eggs are selling at retail in New York City at 85 cents dozen, al though the wholesale price in Penn sylvania, Ohio and the middle west is about 40 cents Somebody between the producer and the consumer is get ting too wide a margin of profit for his services and the consumer, as us ual, pays the bill.
 Attorney General McReynolds an nounces that the government is de termined that the beef combine shall not monopolize the refrigerating ser vice between foreign beef shipping points and the United States. With ship cold storage not monopolized the government believes imported meats ought to be much cheaper. If un- controlled ship refrigeration is good, a why not uncontrolled refrigeration on land? If it is unjust for the beef trust to monopolize cold storage at sea, why is it not also unjust for butter and egg spectators to mo- nopoize cold storage on land and use refrigerating systems as instruments to extort exorbitant prices from the consumer?
 Possibly a municipal cold storage plant, operated for the benefit of the cons amer, might relieve the situation. Ny
