 Tolxfo, Dec. e.=The Japanese peo= pie came originally, from Armenia ae= cording to Takataro Kimuras who has been making study Of ancient rec ords of Japan. The Japaneses he says, claim to be Of a race descending from Heaven. They call their country the Land of Gods, he continues and this tradition reveals the true origin. of the Japanese people The tnvestiga- tor writes as follows;
 Heaven is Anne in Jap9neses so the Kingdom Of Anne must have been Armenia in Asia, whence the people spread in all directions But the cen ter of the race history moved on to Babylon, Greece and Egypt, and still farther to Morocco and Senegal in the extreme west Of Africa

 How to Draw a Chicken.
 Following are the directions given 1 by the sH 6uEtrssE4 rsE dressing specialists of the depaftfdent for drawing a
 l11 Hold the chicken by the legs and run it quickly over the flame from loosely twisted lighted news paper which, for safety. may be laid in a. coal bucket or ash tray. This 1 will remove the fine hairs. Remove sharp small knife blade. The charred hair may be washed off later.
 (2) Gut the legs off well below the knee Joint If the legs are cut I above the knee joint. the flesh on the drum stick will be pulled back from the end.
 (31 Cut .the head off. leaving as much of the neck as possible. then push the skin of the neck back and cut the neck off quite close to the l body. The envelope of the remainfn g skin gives the dressed bird a heater appearance. Tn neck bones with the adhering meat make a valuable addi- 1 tion to the gib1ets. The guI1et and windpipe are, of course, on the neck and must be pulled away.
 64l To. remove the entrails. make an fncision about 2 1-2g inches in ] length across the abdomen and as close to the vent as possible. Tn mak- ing this incision, be careful not to penetrate the inestine. Slip the fingers in first, and gradually insert the whole hand through the slit into the body cavity. Work the viscera loose from it's attachments by sliding the fingers over the inner surface of the body walls IR this way, after a. little practice the viscera can be re- moved quickly and easily. The lungs will almost invariably tear. leaving shreds sticking to the back. These. and the kidneys of the chicken. which are two long, dark red bodies lying each side of the backbone and firmly fastened, should be removed in pieces. The rest of the viscera. in cluding the crop which lies far front and just under the skin of the breast, when loosened will come out in mass through the incision. The intestine is still attached to the bird at the vent. To separate it cleanly, the tube. should be picked up just as close to the vent as possible and it's contents pushed

clear indications of sta1eness The head of chicken that is not fresh will show a greenish color below the bill, sunken eyes, and darkening or discoloration op the neck, all of which indicate decay.
 4 The housewife should require that the entrails of a. chicken be not drawn, or at least should have the butcher draw them in her presence. Moreover, the entrai1s of the chicken often show diseased conditions that are not evident after the bird is fully drawn. The appearance of the entrai1s will help her to tell whether the chicken is fresh and whether it has been properly handled. Entrails in a good chicken should be almost empty. round, firm in texture, and showing g little red veins here and there. If the intestines are ful1 the, bird was not starved for "A hours before killing as it should have been, or else sand was fed to it to increase it's weight and work a fraud on the buyer. If the animal heat was not removed quickly And completely, the roundness of the intestines will be lost and the folds of the intestines will stick to- gether. There also will be an undue am ount of sliminess and an unpleas- ant odor which is not found in a. prop erly chilled bird. There is, of course, always some odor when the body cavity or a D1rd IS opened even If It is just killed, but this odor is quite, different from the pronounced smell which comes with decay. An un- scrupulous dealer can not foist bad birds on the housewife who dresses the chicken herself and knows how to interpret what she sees and smells.
 The skin of a chicken will tell the housewife whether the bird has been properly dry picked and lair chill ed'' or whether it has been 'tscaIded' in order to remove the feathers. The skin of a, dry-picked chicken is flex- ible translucent, with the feather papiI1ae plainly visible and contains short hairs which have to be rem owed by singeing. If chicken has been scalded, the skin is hard. thick, close to the muscles underneath and almost free from these hairs. The skin of g. picked chicken is characteristic and is shiny, thicker than when air chilled, and it is scarcely possible to see the pink muscles underneath as one should be able to do. A water chilled chicken is also fraud to the buyer because it absorbs water. which is charged for at chicken prices.

HOUSEWIVES SHOULD
BUY CHICKENS UNDRAWN
Government Tests Show That Un- drawn Chickens Keep Much Better Than Those That Have Been Fully Dressed.

Washington, Dec. 9-The poultry handling specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture are urging housewives to buy their chickens undrawn and with their heads and feet still on. An undraswn chicken, they say, shows it's lack of freshness or it's unfitness for food much more clearly than does 8 fully certain significant signs can easily be removed by the crafty poultry dresser
 Moreover, by actual government tests as reported in Circular No. TO of the Bureau of Chemistry. fully drawn poultry with head and feet removed, decomposes the most rapidly, while undrawn poultry keeps much better than does poultry either wholly or partly drawn. This is because once a chicken is opened for cleaning, the delicate tissues in it's are open to the bacteria, of the air, which multiply very rapidly and soon destroy the fla vor of the chicken, even if they do not bring about actual putrefaetion. The undressed chicken is far less likely to be contaminated in this way, as the outer skin is protection against the inroads of such bacteria
 When the feet of chickens are re- moved, the housewife loses one of the easiest methods of determining whether the bird. is young or old. Young chickens have smooth. clean feet and shanks, Old birds have scaIy. rough legs and buttons or spurs. The head of Q. dead chicken gives very

we'll back from the vent. Then cur closely around the vent. holding the intestine tightly between the fingers to insure cleanliness. Run stream of water through the slit into the body cavity in such wise that 1t flows out through the vent and cleans the short piece of intestine still remaining. Then cut both vent and intestine away, leaving a neat, round hole no larger than is necessary.
 To prepare the giblets. detach the heart, gizzard and liver taking great care not to break the little green gall bladder attached to the liver, which contains a very bitter liquid which, if allowed to escape. will give a bitter flavor to the gibIets and gravy. This gall bladder is so close to the liver that some liver tissue must be cut away, to be on the safe side. The color of a healthy chicken liver may vary from yellow to dark red. To prepare the gizzard, hold it with the thin edge toward the palm of the hand and make an incision the whole length along the thick side, being careful merely to cut through the muscle, but not into the inner sac Then open the gizzard as you would a pocketbook and remove the inner sac which Is full of gravel, if possf- ib1e without breaking it.
 Finally, wash the chicken and giblets in clean cold water, but do not let the chicken soak in the water be- cause the finest flavors of the meat and much nutritive material are dis solved in the water.
 Once the chicken is dressed and washed, put it at once in the coldest place available and keep it there until it is to be put on the fire. The best way is to dress it just in time to go into the stove.

 The. exp1anatio was brief. The gov ern1nent knew the name of the Ger man company holding the lease 1t Knew moreover that the rent was about five shfl1Ings six pence a week; 4ha4 steps had been taken to cancel this docume1at, that for some weeks British troops had been on the Island.

 The popular outcry against the prince in the opinion of the London .Spress generally, is unJustified: but the H4mes remarks rather sarcastfca.lly that the public might be told g little more about the German company which was able to acquire so cheap Ivy so much good farm and land, to- se-eeaaar with numerous cottages not to mention the manor house.
