Ancients Used Gas Warfare.

The earliest use of deleterious gases
in siege warfare is recorded in the
history of the Peloponnesian wars
from 431 to 4O4 B. G. During this
struggle between the Athenians and
Spartans and their respective allies
the cities of Platea and Delium were
besieged.
Wood saturated with pitch and sui
phur was set on fire and burned under
the walls of these cities in order to
generate choking and poisonous fumes
which would stupefy the defenders
and render the task of the attacking
forces less difficult.

bowl, teaspoons and cups and saucers.
Cups may be had that are artistic
and shapely from ten cents to as
many dollars, but the tea tastes as
well from the ten-cent one and if one
is broken, your heart is not. Tea is
served at four o'clock so that it does
not interfere with the six o'clock din
ner and is not meal in any sense.
The correct way of preparing tea
IS to take the freshly drawn water at
the first boil, scald the teapot, then
add tea teaspoonful for each person
and one for the pot; cover with the
water. then let stand five minutes. add
enough water to serve, allow it to

TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About the Food


When there's no relish to food and

any good then is the time to make a
turnover in the diet, for that's Ma

food isn't the kind required.

railroad work, much of it being office
work of trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest; and eating too much
and too quickly of food such as is

habits, were not long in giving me dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble which re-

that has become decidedly popular for
the outside covering of one-story
houses. The economical upkeep OF
shingle siding appeals to great many
owners because of the saving in paint.
To keep a wooden house looking re-
spectacle it is necessary to give it
good coat of paint about once in two
or three years. which generally in
cludes every square inch of surface
below the shingles. Sometimes the
roof is included
In this design the color OF the shin
giles never changes, so that paint is
unnecessary except for the TRIM The
columns. bands. fascia boards. brack
cts and window trim are the only out
side features that require attention
from the painter.
The rough brick supporting piers
and chimneys are left in their natural
rough-and-ready coat OF brown, which
harmonizes with the general color
scheme in a very satisfactory manner.
The plan of this artistic cottage is
similar to a regular five-room bunga-
low, which places the living room, din
ing room and kitchen on the sunny
side of the house. The two bedrooms,
with bathroom, occupy the side to the
north or east. according to the direc-
ton in which the house faces
This plan shows rather a large din
ing room, which is really part Of the
living room, being connected by q
wide archway which practically makes
the two rooms into one splendid room
26 feet in length with abundance of
light from a half dozen windows.
A very interesting feature. and one
that especially interests the women. is
the manner in which the kitchen is
built. 1t occupies q bright, sunny
corner and is SO arranged that 1t
makes a real house workshop. with
all the necessary attachments near at
hand. The kitchen itself is compare
lively small, but it is in close contact
with the pantry, the stairway leading
down to the cellar and the other stair
way leading up to the attic. Then the
rear porch is almost part of the
kitchen.
The plan shows kitchen sink close
to large window, and the stove is
directly between two windows. Both
the stove and sink are convenient to
the. pantry and to the cellarway, where
supplies are stored. The making of a
home kitchen is considered in diff

preparation of meals. The sink and
table, stove and cupboards should be
within speaking distance of each 9TH
er. The dining room should open di-
rectly into the kitchen or pantry be-
tween so that the shortest possible
routing would be accomplished in
serving meal.
Windows should be plentiful and so
placed that plenty of light and ven
tilation could be obtained Artificial
light should be planned to fall where
it is most needed, over sink and stove
and table.
II swing doors are placed between
the kitchen and dining room the kitch-
en- need never be in view when sitting
at the dining table.
The floor should be covered with
linoleum or finished in such a way
that scrubbing is unnecessary
Tables and sink as well as stove and
ironing board should be of the height
to suit the person to use them.
Over the sink shelf with hooks be-
meath to hold all the much-used things
like soap shaker, measuring cups,
dipper, dish mop. and potato masher,
may be easily placed On top Of this
shelf have your scales, small clock,
pretty receptacles for pepper and salt
and the much used condiments
The best arranged kitchens are
those with plenty OF cupboard space
to shut from the dust all utensils that
are not washed twice or three times

close that the dishes may be wiped

small table with casters. to move
about. This same table will be in
valuable to have near the stove when
cooking, and should be covered with

another most convenient utensil to
save steps as it can be loaded with
food for the table and remove it and
the soiled dishes after the meal, with
but one or two trips.

modern conveniences have come into
general use.
The modern idea of practical kitch-
en- is compactness rather than size.
A little modern kitchen like this saves
miles of walking. Cooking and meal
serving can be done so much quicker
when the tools are all kept within easy
reach of the one doing the work. The
pantry is placed between the kitchen
and dining room, but it is not neces-
sary to go through the pantry in pass
ing from one room to the other The
entrance. to the cellar has the same
convenience of access as the entrance
to the pantry.
House repair work shows that the
greatest wear on Abe floors is between
the stove, the sink, the pantry and
the cellarway. Starting with these data
architects have labored to reduce
these lines of travel to the shortest
possible dimensions and at the same
time crowd all of the necessary con-
veniences into this restricted space.
The finish of a modern kitchen is
designed and carried out as carefully
as the finish of any other part of the
house. Modern kitchens are made as
light and attractive as possible. Very
often the woodwork is finished in white
enamel and the walls are made white
and washable Wall paper has no
place in modern kitchen. The wall
must have hard, glossy, sanitary
finish and there must be no cracks
large enough to admit little red ants
or insects of any other dimensions.
not only the comfort OF the house
wife, but the health OF the family, de-
pen,as on kitchen sanitation. The first
law of sanitation is light and sunshine,
although cleanliness really is part
of this first rule When kitchen Is
made light, the walls and ceiling hard
and washable with well-laid hard
wood floor, then cleanliness follows
easily.
The laundry in this plan is under
the kitchen and there is an outside
cellarway for convenience on wash
days. Every housekeeper is particu-
lar to have the clothes hung outdoors
when weather will permit. The out
side cellarway, in combination with
good outside clothesline, means a
great deal in helping to produce snowy
white linen.

Salmon Thrive in Maine.

Success has been met by the bu-
reau of fisheries in establishing hump.
back salmon on the Maine coast. ac-
cording to reports from that terri
tory. The fish were planted in Febru-
airy, 1914. Many fish weighing five
to seven and half pounds have been
taken or seen in Penobscot river, Me-,
and twenty were captured alive by
agents of the bureau near Bangor and
held in an effort to obtain ripe eggs.
From two of these fish 5000 eggs were
taken September 6, and. after fertili-
cation, sent to the Craig Brook hatch
cry for incubation. Local fishermen
caught and ate large numbers, and an
employee of the Green Lake hatchery
took fifteen fish last week. These had
passed through the fishways in dams
in Dennys river and were dropping
down stream N a spent condition; at
the same time both live and dead fish
were observed below the dams.
