UNCLE SANS SOLDIERS HOME

A group Of buildings comprising the
United States Soldiers home in Wash
ington cannot be equaled for beauty
in the United States, and it is doubt
full If they can be matched anywhere
in the world.
Eighteen veterans of the Mexican
war are among the former soldiers
Of the United States army living at
Soldiers home. Five of the veterans
fought also in the Civil war, according
to the report Of the board Of mana
gers Of the home. announced recently.
There are 1890 soldiers at the home.
The oldest is ninety.three years old,
and the youngest is t%wenty-four.
There are ten inmates more than
eighty years Of. age. The soldiers are
contented at the home, apparently.
They we're given opportunity during
the past year privately to make com.
plant. But n kick" was regis.
tered. This was outside the jurisdic-
ton of the home. Farming at the
home resulted in a profit Of about
$500. There was expended $7,712.01.
More than $1,000 worth of produce
was grown. The dairy plant produced
more than 10000 gallons of milk and
cream.

A laxative today saves a sick child

Look at the tongue, mother! II coat

heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a

Figs" then don't worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in q few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and f%ermenting waste will gently
move out Of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor

that is necessary. It should be the

Hang the heads up where the hens
will have to work a little to get them
or scatter the seeds in the litter.
II these seeds are fed mixed with
the other grains that are scattered in
the litter, or as a change from the
others, it will of course not be nee
essary to feed SO much Of the expen-
siye grains.
The small potatoes and the. potato
parings and trimmings from other veg
etabIes used in the house can be
boiled, sailed and peppered, as for
the table, and a little bran and corn
meal mixed with them. just enough
to take up the surplus moisture, so
that the mixture will not be sloppy.
This makes a good. and also a very
inexpensive mash food. With 1t may
be mixed the meat-scraps. (
Beef bones and scraps should be
run through a bone cutter, or be chop
ped up by hand into small pieces, be-
fore giving to the hens.
Skimmilk costs really nothing on
the farms, and if the hens have all
of it they will drink, they will not eat
| so much other food.
If these cheap feeds are handled
right, it will leave only the last feed
at night to be of the high-priced
grains, and if we'll fed during the day
on these other things they will not
eat so much of it then.
They should have a good feed OF
grain. mostly corn for their supper in
order to keep them healthy and sup.

By following these directions, the
hens can be almost entirely kept on
the waste products Of the farm. and

the table. Desserts are the simplest,

Dinner starts at seven o'clock. It

GREATEST PUBLIC LIBRARY
Washington Ahead of Other Cities IN
Results Obtained, but Behind
in Salaries.

The annual report of the District
public library, which was given out
the other day, is of interest for two
reasons-the economy shown IN the
local system, as compared with other
cities of similar size. and the way
in which this is accomplished, by the
payment Of low wages to many en-
ployes. The growth of the institution
and the spread of its work are also
noticeable features.
The available cost of home circula-
ton of books in 26 cities OF more
than 100000 population is placed at
Is cents, according to the report. while
the similar item in this city is placed
at ten cents a volume. The librarian
of congress-, Mr.. Putnam. has declared
the local institution to be the most
intelligently active for its size and
constituency in the whole country
In relation to wages, the report
says, In part:
The original library appropria.
tons were slowly and inadequately
made. The salaries were fixed by
congress on a starvation basis, and
no effort hitherto has been success
full in raising them except in spots.
Charwomen are still paid $3.50 a year,
as against a minimum of S24O a wear
elsewhere; many regular assistants.
professional librarians, are paid $3.50
and $40 a year, when the minimum
pay for merely clerical work else
where in the government service is
$500"
The treasurer's report shows that
the total expenditures during the
year amounted to s68. 307.08, with re-
ceipts, mainly from congressional ap-
preparations. Of $66.999.95 |.

Washington Society Leader Is Taking

. The latest fad OF Mrs. Christian

in the open-air roof garden OF her

teeth, and a Greek robe Of white tulle.
or something of that character, and
sandals or bare feet. She says she
depends entirely upon the circulation
of her blood to keep her warm. Mrs.
Hemmick scorns the tango and dances
of that character, and takes her poses
from the ancient Greeks. So far as
this writer is able to judge, the Amer
lean Interpretation of the ancient
Greek dances is the hop, skip and
jump of the kids of the streets, who
make chalkmarks. hold up one foot
and see how many Of the marks can
be missed while going through the

Calumet the Secret Of Economy

The high cost Of living nowadays. and
the way prices are steadily climbing sky
wards, is making economy in the kitchen
even more important than it was in the
good old days Of u thrifty ancestors.
But how to achieve economy? There's
the rub!
In many lines, it depends almost en-
tirely on the housewives knowledge Of
foods and on her wa~tchfulness-but for
tunately, In one line, baking, economy
can be made almost automatic by the use
OF the famous Calumet Baking Powder.
Economy in baking. as every good cook
knows. depends not so much. on economy
In buying the materials as on the success
Of her bakings. Failures mean waste
bigger losses by far than the savings she
makes In buying. And the fact that Calu-
met absolutely prevents failures and
makes every baking successful has made
1t the favorite Of every cook that seeks
to be economical. In other words, Calu-
met Is the secret OF, economy in baking.
It Is the purest, too-attested by hun
drcds of leading physicians-and as for
its general quality, it is enough to say
that Calumet has received the highest
awards at two Worlds Pure Food EXPOSE

in Paris, France. in March. 1912. Adv.

During the lowering Of the line the
valves Of the bottle are kept unseated
by the passage Of the water through

when the motion is reversed, the
valves seat themselves and r locked
by the descent Of a small propeller In
the framework above the upper valve,
which rides idly on a sleeve during the
lowering Of the bottle. but descends
along a screw thread to press the
valves upon their seats when the line

AIRsHIrs ARE HERE TO STAY
Major Driant, Expert In Questions Of
Military Engineering, Has Faith
in D%irigibies.

The French military authorities. In
spite of the Zeppelin disaster. are still
convinced that the big German dirig-
ible dreadnoughts are a most destruc.
tive factor in warfare. Major Driant,
deputy for Nancy, a son-in-law of the
late General Boulanger and one Of the
foremost experts in questions of mill.
tary engineering, in a recent interview
said. according to the New York Trib-
une:
"The Zeppelin catastrophe does not
shake one iota Of my faith in big dirig-
ibles. 1t is true that the Germans have
had many accidents. and in time Of
war they will have many more, but as
an offset we must remember the enor.
nous service these dirigibles are cap
able of rendering in actual warfare.
For instance, a dirigible "a carry
eight tons of dynamite, and car drop
it. or any portion Of it, at whatever
point its commander may select. Sup
pose war breaks out between Germany
and England and one dirigible costing
$500, 900 and handled by 20 men gets in
a position above a British ~battleship
costing $12, 00o, 900 or $751; 900. 900 and
containing a crew of a thousand men
The destruction Of the latter would
be inevitable, for no deck armor. not
even that of the new Queen Elizabeth,
could resist SO great an impact.
The best proof Of this theory is the
confident perseverance of Germans in
steadily increasing their feet OF Yep
pelins. a perseverance that offers us a
most wholesome example.
II do not underestimate the value Of
our aeroplane for. accommodating and
scouting. but l have examined at Lune-
vile q German Zeppelin from top to

saying that the loss of 10 dreadnoughts

over selecting a design for the statue.
One made by O'Connor and accepted

rejected. and a design which is the
work of John J. Boyle, a New York

To Minimize Fire Hazard.

"The fire waste in the United
States, owing to the failure to build
in this country as securely against the
ravages of fire as they do in Europe,
has been estimated to be not less than
5000, 100000 q year. This is forcing
the rebuilding Of many structures and
will force the rebuilding of a still
greater number in our cities to mini
mize the fire hazard. The rebuilding
must be done and the problem is how
to finance it. From actual experience
