HEAD WILL SAVE
HOUSEWIVES HEELS
GET A FAMILY BULLETIN.

HELPF'ULNESS seems to be a birth
right in some families, particularly
in large families. There are so many
little personal services that the mem
bers perform for each other. but it is
very easy to forget to remember small
requests, and it really isn't surprising
that Tom should grunb1e when his
stockings aren't mended or that Mary
should be aggrieved when the new book
shelf in her den stands disconsolately
in the corner waiting a helpful hand
and hammer
One housewife had such a clever idea
about doing things She bought a
neat little pad and attached a pencil to
it by long string. This pad she put
where every member of the household
could see it plainly. Each member who
wished help from another wrote his re-
quest on the pad Just as soon as some
one performed the service he crossed
out the request, signing his own little
initials underneath.
The pad proved very popular and
really saved an immense amount of
nagg1ng and friction. Buttons were
sewed on, shelves put up pencils shar-
pened and gloves mended without a
word of protest.
"Now we have time for real CONVEX
sation in the family sighed the
daughter of the household.

For the Vegetarian
NUTS FROM SOUP TO DESSERT.

TT you wish to serve nut dinner you
may do so. from, soup to dessert
Suppose you begin with nut chowder.
Break half pound of mixed nut meats
into small pieces, put them into a
saucepan with four cupfuls of water
and let them simmer for one and a half
hours Peel and cut into cubes sew
era1 potatoes, turnips and a large
onion You will also need two cupfuls
of canned or stewed tomatoes. Strain
the nut meats, but save the water in
which they have been boiled, as it
forms valuable stock Cover the bot
tom of a kettle with the potatoes, add
a layer of turnips and the onion, with
a sprink1ing of thyme, sweet narjoraIn
chopped parsley and salt; then layer
of tomatoes and, last OF all, the nut
meats. Repeat the layers in this order
until the ingredients are all used; then
pour over them all the stock, which
should be boiling. Let the mixture
simmer for half an hour; then add two
cupfuIs of milk Thicker with a little
-four and butter if desired Nut butter
may be used for this thickening. 1t is
also possible to omit the tomatoes If
one wishes without spelling the flavor
OF the chowder.
Nut Roast.
This tasty nut roast is made from
walnuts, pecans or h1berts. Put two
teacupfulS or stale breadcrumbS IN a
mixing bowl and moisten with hot wa
ter and let stand a few minutes until
all the water is absorbed. Add one
cupful of crushed or ground nut meats
which have been broken into small
pieces. Flavor with one teaspoonfuI of
finely sifted sage or mixed herbs and
with either half a teaspoonful of salt or
with one teaspoonful of lemon juice
Mix thoroughly and stir In one well
beaten egg. Press into a square pan
to mold into a, loaf, and then turn out
on a baking tin and roast one hour in
a moderate oven. To vary this raisins
chopped figs or dates might be used in
stead of the nut meats. You must use
your Judgment about the amount of
hot water used. The roast should be
moist as is consistent with its being
firmly nodded when it is put into the
oven. It is good cold or hot and makes
an excellent sandwich filling.

ON WASHING DAY.

4 LITTLE soap shredded into the
clothes a good color and if you put a
small piece into the starch it will make
the ironing easier and it imparts a
lovely gloss to the clothes. All the lit

be put into a jar with a little water.
Place the jar in moderate oven and
leave until the soap has dissolved. This
is excellent for washing hanneIs and

We are nation Of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-knOwn authority, who warns us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overworkj they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like humps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or tho bladder
is irritable, obliging you to seek relief
during the night; when you have severe
headaches, nervous and dizzy spells
sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheuma'
tism in bad weather, get from youl
pharmacist about four ounces Of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in glass Of
water before breakfast each morning
and in few days your kidneys will
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and hal
been used for generations to flush ant

GERMANY IS NEXT TO
UNCLE SAM IN WEALTH
IusIrED PRESS LEASED wrnn.1

Berlin, Nov. 7.--Next to the United
States, Germany is the wealthiest
nation in the world in its aggregate Of
wealth. Germany Is national wealth, ac-
cording to DR.. Karl Hefferich, director
Of the Deutche Bank, Germany's big
gest financial institution, who has jua
made report to the Kaiser is between
$4,000, 100000 and $7S,OO0,0O0,O00.
That Of the United States, according
to the last census, is $l25,OOO,0O0, 900;
England, $65,OOOOO0OOO; and France
100000, 100000. Second in national
wealth, Germany, however ranks
fourth in the per capita wealth
Of its pokAation. II all Germ
any's wealth were equally distributed
each man, woman and child would have
about 81 100. In France each would
have 81, ,425, where the per capita wealth
is the highest in the world England
and the United Safes dispute which
has the greatest per capita wealth. The
English say they could distribute
between $3.50 and 81 1856 to each man,
woman and child, while in the United
States each would receive $1,360.
The annual income Of the German
people by Hefferich as approximately
$lO,OOO,0OO. Approximately S2,O0O,O00
is expended annually for public purpos-
es. The German people, says Hefferich
save about one billion dollars annually,
which together with the automatic in.
creased value Of property adds close
to three billion dollars a year to the
national wealth in aggregate Heifer.
ich shows the Kaiser that Germany Is
wealth has practically doubled since he
