Two WAYS 10 Use Up cold Ham

Cup Omelets.-Butter half dozen
custard cupfuls and fill lightly with
equal quantities of stale (soft) bread

and add one cupful milk and divide
among the cups-adding more milk if
necessary. Set cups in pan of hot
water and bake in moderate oven In

quantity of cold chopped ham in each,
making a hollow in center. Drop an
egg in each, season with salt and pep
per and a small piece of butter on

Too Much Trouble.

In Sunday school one afternoon the
superintendent announced the hymn,
Il Want to Be an Angel" and when
the others began to sing. it was no
ticed that little Jessie was ~conspicu-
ously silent.
What is the matter, my dear?"
kindly asked the teacher. why don't
you sing, I Want to Be an Angel?'"
Because. Miss Mary" was the
rather startling rejoinder of the child,
Il don't want to be one"
Don't want to be one!" exclaimed
the Mortified teacher. why do you
say that?"
Because" calmly answered Jessie,
'they have to play on the harp and l
have had trouble enough taking my

Mammoth Cave in Idaho.

About tw~enty-eight miles from
Boise City, Idaho, there has been dis
covered what is believed to be the
largest cave in that part of the North
west, and the largest in Idaho. 1t
measures nearly half a mile in length,
that is from it's mouth to the lake. OF
curse it may be that long again, but
owing to the lake it is impossible to
get the exact length without a boat.
The government is unaware of it's ex-
istence, as it is located on u~nsurveyed
land and in an exceedingly desolate
region. Should the government be-
come aware of it's whereabouts it
would Immediately claim it.

WATERsPOUT IMPERlLS SHIP
Column of Water Thirty Feet Thick
Passes Within Ten Feet of
Vessel.

The thrilling story of a narrow es-
cape from being engulfed by a huge
waterspout off Diamond Shoal light
ship was told by the crew of the Brit
ish steamship Gordon Castle, which
has arrived here from Beira, South
Africa, the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can states. Captain Gardner said
the waterspout was about 1900 feet
high and 80 feet thick. The ship was
caught in the grip of a northwest gale
recently. Suddenly, said Captain Gard
ner, a hiss like escaping steam was
heard.
Then" said the captain, I'VE saw a
great white column of whirling water
spinning owe the ocean. The rush of
the whirlwind that created the spout
made us cling to the rail for safety.
The course of the Gordon Castle was
changed and the spout passed within
ten feet of the ship"

What Caused the Trouble.

II always drank coffee with the rest

was nothing for breakfast if we did
not have it on the table.
81 had been troubled for some time
with my heart, which did not feel
right. This trouble grew worse
steadily.
Sometimes 1t would beat fast, and
at other times very slowly, so that I
would hardly be able to do work for
an hour or two after breakfast, and if
/ walked up a hill, it gave me a severe
pain.

was until a friend suggested that per-
haps it might be coffee drinking. 1
tried leaving of the coffee and began
drinking Postum. The change came
quickly. D am glad to say that I am

! FUNNEL as high as possible, and pour
in the fluid until the preputial sack is
filled. In addition to this, the hair of
the belly and inner sides of the thigh
should be sponged with the %antiseptic.
This disinfection should invariably
precede and follow every service.
An aborting COW should receive i'm
mediate attention, and the animal
should be removed to separate quar-
tiers, where she can receive appropri-
ate treatment. The fetus, membranes
and discharges are particularly dan
gerous and should be gathered up and
destroyed Immediately by burning or
burial in some safe place, and this
followed by thoroughly disinfecting
the stall. The uterus should be irri-
gated daily with one of the antisep-
tics mentioned for the bull, using the
same apparatus, and irrigation should
be continued until discharge ceases.
in addition, the external genitals, root
of tail, escutcheon, etc., should be
sponged daily with a solution twice as
strong as that used for irrigation, and
this latter treatment should be given
the nonaborters as we'll. Should the
preliminary symptoms of abortion be
detected, the animal should be re-
moved from the herd and treated as
above.
After abortion, breeding should not
again be attempted within two months,
or until the discharge shall have
ceased, as the uterus would not be
normal and the animal would either
not conceive or would abort again in
a short time.
Great care should be used in pur-
chasing cattle, and COWS not known
to be free from the disease should be
kept in separate quarters until this
point is determined. If a herd bull
is not kept, then great care should be
exercised to know that the animal
used is free of disease and to see that
he is properly treated both before and
after service.
Whenever it becomes necessary to
separate diseased and healthy ami
mails, it is especially important that
different attendants and utensils be
provided for the two groups.
1t is manifestly impossible to go
into details within the scope of a short
article, and it is therefore suggested
that a competent veterinarian be EN-
ployed to supervise disinfection of
premises and advise as to the meth
DDS of treatment.

PROTECTION FOR THE GRAPES
Paper Bag Placed Over Fruit Will
Keep Away Insects and Birds
lnsures Choice Clusters.

Place a paper bag over each bunch
of grapes when the fruit is the size
of small shot. This protects the
grapes from insect and bird injury,
and insures extra choice clusters.
Fasten the mouth of the bag closely
about each stem with a wire or string.
Seedsmen sell wired bags for this pur-
pose.
One year n mans punches of
grapes were many of them so large
that they eventually burst two-pound
bags; since then he has used three
pound bags; they cost about 35 cents
per 100 and may be bought at any
seed store.
This bagging method is only practi-
cable in a small way; large growers
depend upon spraying to produce fine
clusters.

THE CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced BY Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood Is a try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her.
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received q shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and . distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
ahappy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.
