turity in years is dwarfed in body
and mind. The face is pale and the
skin dry. Many cases have an ashen
or yellow complexion which may
show a tinge of green. The appear
ance is sometimes described as wax
like. The blood is thin, lips pale and
the eye dimmed and whittier in color.
These individuals may be diagnosed
as chronic malaria and hence treated
without Improvement. The hair is
dry and at times fax like (lifeless).
The shoulder blades prominent and
the body thin and emaciated. The
person complains of indigestion and
there is usually tenderness upon
pressure in the pit of the stomach.
There may be at times dizziness and
severe headaches. The appetite may
be ravenous and again poor, but in
the more severe cases it becomes
perverted, the person eating dirt,
pieces of paper, morter, ETC., (clay-
eaters). The body easily tires and
there is shortnessu of breath upon the
least %exertion. There may be ulcers
or other skin sores on the body
which heal slowly. A child has q
stupid expression, the eyes are dry
and l~istless, the mind dull and the
child is backward at school and in.
different about play around home.
He fails to grow and often appears
to be only 10 or IL years Of age
when as q matter Of fact he is 16 or
II years old.
In very advanced cases there is
heart and kidney trouble and some
times swelling Of the feet sets in and
the person becomes dropsical, then it
is high time to be treated if death is
to be averted.

THE EXAMINATION.

We do not want to treat anyone unless we know that
he has this disease. The only accurate and satisfactory way
to make the examination is by the use of the microscope.
This instrument will be used in the field by a competent
man, who will be glad to explain to anyone the method of
doing the work. The microscopic will be present with the
director at all of the dispensary appointments for making
examinations.
In order to have this examination made, each person
must bring q bit of the bowel discharge for examination
under the microscope, and if the hookworm eggs are found
we know that the person should be treated.

GibIet Pie.

This is a recipe brought across the
water from an old English manor hitch
en- to the new home in the colonies, and
the dish still appears regularly once a
week when it is possible to get the chick
en- giblets, which, when poultry comes in
from farms adjacent to Baltimore, may be
bought by pound or quart, or sets. Some
times giblets are used without other
meat When giblets are scarce it is made
as follows: Take two sets of giblets and
three-quarters of a pound of rump steak
Prepare the giblets by putting the head,
neck, pinions, and feet into scalding wa
ter to blanch, and take OF the skin from
feet and break them; then put them into
a stewpan with a bunch of sweet herbs,
one small onion stuck with cloves, half
head of celery cut in bits, half a car
rot. a blade of mace, little salt, dozen
pepper-corns. and enough water to cover.
Cover and stew gently for about two
hours; then drain of the liquor and let
get cold and break into pieces. Line your
pie dish with good paste, place a piece
of steak in the bottom, then the giblets
with the livers, hearts, and tender part
of gizzards spread over them; then more
steak and the yolks OF hard boiled eggs
on top If you like. Add a little home
made catsup, about a tablespoonful to
the gravy, and pour into the pie. Cover
and finish in usual way. Bake in a good
hot oven

These are the maXims of Ray
Samuels, the pretty girl who is putting
over some of the song sensations in The
Honeymoon Express at the Belasco this
week.
"Ragtime," she says, "is the cure for
everything. And those who have heard
her sing The International Rag" agree
with her. 1t is one of those songs that
people of the artistic temperament say
Is grating on their finer sensibilities. Yet
these same "temperaments' tapped their
feet on the floor and swayed back and
forth in their seats last week when the
elusive strains of "The International
Rag" swept out over the audience.
yes" said Miss 'Samuels today, "ras-
time is the Fountain of Youth that
Ponce de Leon sought for down in what
are now the Southern States. Ponce
arrived on the scene too early in the
game, that's all. He should have waited
till the Southern darkey sprang into ex-
istence. The darkey knows where the
fountain Of youth is to be found. He
has it in every one of those old ambling,
shambling, crazy tunes. and he never
knows what illness is.
Give me ragtime every day. I love II,
and don't forget II, so do the very ones
who declare it below their standard of
musical entertainment A little ragtime
is better than a whole barrel Of pills and
powders. Never was sick a day in my
life.
Listen, I'm going to sing you the
Trombone Slide Terrible name, isn't
IL? But just you watch me-"
And Miss Samuels broke forth into one
Of those inimitable, languishing, old
Southern melodies that caught the inter-
viewer fairly unawares, and before she
knew 1t she was shuffiing her feet and
smiling like a minstrel show end man.

Apple Pie.

Rub together a scant cup of flour with
two tablespoons of lard and one of but
ter. adding a saltspoon of salt. Wet
with just enough very cold water to
make a dough that will hold together.
Roll out and line a deep pie dish. Have
some apples pared and sliced thin and
heap the dish up well in the middle.
Half a cup of sugar is usually enough
sweetening, but some add two table,
spoons more. Crate nutmeg over the
top and dot with bits OF butter. Cover
with an upper crust, rolled thin; wet
the edges and press together. Make an
opening in the middle of the top crust
by folding the crust and cutting
in slantin direction a feathery de-
sign. Do this before laying the tor
crust, of course. Bake in a moder-
ately hot. oven for forty-five minutes.

FRENCH H0STESSES
ARE VERY TACTFUL
Specially Gifted in Their Entertain
ment Of Guests in Their
Country Houses.

A writer who went abroad this summer
to make a special study OF the fashions
has some interesting things TO say IN
comparing French. English, and Amer
lean hostesses. 81 must turn for a mo-
ment to the subject Of French hostesses
he said. "They are really perfect. They
in England, impress their guests with
the idea that the Liberty hall element
prevails. They do not try to make their
houses limitations Of public hotels. But,
or the other hand, they do lay them
selves out to make each individual guest
perfectly happy and content. They are
SO full of tact that they seem to know
ipstinctively when to take the lead and
when to permit their guests to do so.
II am an immense admirer Of English
and American hostesses, but must con-
fess that where country houses are con-
cerned i give the palm to French women.
1t seems to me that they are specially
endowed for the purpose Of entertaining
and being entertained. And here / will
say few words on the subject of a con-
troversy which has been raging in one
OF the leading London newspapers, the
secret of effective conversation" says the
New York Sun. 81 have read many diff
ferent opinions on this important sub
| ject. Some Of these opinions have been
merely spitsful. But il has seemed to
me that almost all have missed the mark.
An Excellent Answer.
Last night at dinner I put forward
| the question. Wherein lies the soul
of dinner table conversation Almost i'm
| nedistsly my hostess replied: II lies In
| the ability to carry on a conversation ir
the immediate presence OF total strangers
OF various nationalities without suspicion
o. offense." And IL was an excellent
answer; for II meant that personalities
| should be avoided and such dangerous
subjects as religion or politics.
"One of the most famous of all the
French writers of the last century laid
down the law that no mamie meant
woman. too-could consider himself well
bred unless he had the ability to con-
| verse intelligently for several hours with
complete strangers without having once
given cause for offense. 1t was a rather
| severe test. but a correct one.
In England and in other countries
| there is a growing tendency toward in
| Producing all sorts OF personal topics into
general conversation. People seem to
| think nothing OF expressing strong, even
| violent views on such subjects as pol
itics and religion, This would not be
possible in French society OF the best
order. for general conversation is con-
sidered the only possible.

Turn to The Right.

If those who have the care of lamps
would take pains after cleaning to place
them whether on shelf, table or bracket
so that the thumb screw comes naturally
to the right hand of the person who will
approach to light them, 1t would be a
great convenience. If this were followed
there would be less smoking of Chin
neys and fewer lamp wicks turned down
into the Kerosene by inexperienced or
careless hands

NEW MEXICO LIQUOR TRAFFIC.
Supreme Court Holds Congress Had

Congress had the right to admit New
Mexico to statehood. with a Ioophols
giving the Federal government the au-
thority to restrict the liquor traffic in
that State. according to decision of the
United States Supreme Court yesterday.
The Federal District Court in that State
had decided that the liquor traffic there
came within the police powers of the
State and was not subject to Federal
interference.
The question arose in the case of Fe-
lipe Sandoval. indicted for selling liquor
to the Pueblo Indians. He resisted the
prosecution in the lower Federal Court
on the ground that Congress had no right
to insert in the act Of admission a pro-
vision giving the government power to
punish persons selling liquor to Indians.
