Westinghouse Airbrake Company has
declaEed the regular quarterly dividend of
81 a share.
The selling of Canadian Pacific comes
from Canada. There is some European
selling, too. Loans there are overcrowded
with the stock, and this condition is hav-
ing its effect.
Hartman & Co.-Canadian Pacific is
again weak in London, but other issues
are steady. Irregularity likely until cur
rency bill is voted on, but stocks are too
cheap to respond appreciably to any fur
ther bad news. They are ready to 20

sure purchases, and the strength of Steel
has not permitted the shorts to cover.

opening prices are made.

ports that James J. Hill would be ap-

board and thst Mr.. Warburg, Of Kuhn,

In the year ending June 30 Union
Pacific earned 15.I4 per cent for its conn

DINNER AND DISHWASHING

There is no dinner without It's dish
washing.
To every joy of life is attached a
bit of disagreeableness, as a thorn
grows under the rose. the apple has
a core, the banana skin and the
watermelon rind.
For every picnic somebody must
mack the baskets, after every party
someone must sweep up. when the
game of cards is over someone must
nut things away and clear the table,
saws a writer in Woman's World.
Under all the pleasantness of life
runs a current of unpleasant things
to be done. Back of every luxurious
automobile are a thousand workmen.
Somebody must curry the horse and
wash the buggy.
One of the most unfortunate mis-
takes you can make is to omit to
teach this to your child.
Few recipes for happiness are more
reliable than this; form the habit
Of paying cheerfully and as a matter

All green vegetables owe their COL

coloring of plants and plays very
important part in their growth; plants
bleached means they are robbed of
this coloring matter, which builds
up the life of the plant The same
is true of the color beets, carrots or
red leaves of the cabbage, but from a
different compound than chlorophyll.
This coloring matter is often
squeezed from leaves and flowers and
used to color various articles of food.
This is perfectly safe coloring mat
ter. Chop parsley or spinach very
fine and then rub it in a bowl or
pound in a mortar. Add three or four
drops of alcohol or lemon juice to

green for coloring mayonnaise. The
same is@true of other plants strong

ing artificially eolored foods.
For years men have thought that
these vegetables used in salads were
for women only, something that was
dainty and not containing much food.
1t was very difficult to persuade the
average man to have salad. All
this is changing rapidly. 1t is just
as essential for men to eat the green
succulent foods as women.

root vegetables with none of the
natural mineral matter which has a
clearing quality in these greens.

There has been a great change in

that of fifty years ago. 1t is per-
hans more noticeable in the in
creased supply of green and succu-
lent vegetables which, as their name
suggests, are vegetables more for
refreshing, palatable and clearing
qualities. rather than for their nu-
tritive food value.

to remember when their own or
grandfathers' cellars had for their
winter supply of vegetables only the
staples, such as potatoes, turnips.
carrots, beets, cabbage and onions.
what a change has come about In
the last few years even with new
and improved varieties in these same
vegetables! Better cultivation, i'm

hot-house gardening and the great
