MAKING BREAD
 OF RYE STRAW

Berlin, April 2-1'he new straw bread, an invention of Dr. Hans Friedenthal, from which much is expected, is thus described by the nokalanseigcr:
 With the flavor Of the finest rye bread, this straw bread is remark ably rich in nutritious elements. Two pounds Of the straw flour con- tains zoo calorics, l.2 per cent Ct albumen, and 15 per cent of ni' trogenous matter, besides a splen~ did proportion of mineral salts.
 From the same straw flour may be prepared soups and broths of a delicious flavor, which even an epi- cure will not despise.

LOVE FINDS A WAY
By HARVEY 7. STANTON

Inasmuch as Agnes was making her
preparations to go east and 1t was
supposed that she was bidding her
lover a last farewell, no opposition was
made to the two youngsters seeing as
much of each other as they liked.
They spent a whole evening together,
during which Agnes told my father
that if she married him her father
would disinherit her and that she
would lose a very large fortune. Her
mother was bitterly opposed to her
marriage with my father. for 1t was
she who was determined to exchange
the wealth she would inherit for one
of those rundown titled foreigners who
are in the market for American heir
esses. 3#18 4assf4.
My father was the more cast down
because, while Agnes talked about her
mothers wishes In this matter. he was
not quite sure that Agnes herself was
lot inclined to the plan of marrying
a title and was accustomed to do pref.
ty much as she pleased.
However, there was nothing for my
father to do but submit, and he said
goodby to Agnes l~ugubriously.
My father, notwithstanding his IN
ployer's opposition to his marriage,
was continued In his position and the
morning after his farewell left for the
mill. He always rode on the outside
of the coach and climbed on top,
where he resigned himself to brooding
over the severest blow one can receive,
whether young OF old-separation from
a mate.
They We're approaching the base of
the mountains when a voice from be-
low called out that Jim Harkaway-
that was my ~father-was wanted in
side. Nothing was further from his
inclination, and he refused to descend.
But the request was repeated, and at
last he climbed down and entered the
coach. All looked at him e~xpectantly
and one of the men said smilingly:
Every one loves a lover. Cheer up,
| young man! If you must have a girl
here's one for YOU"
He pointed to an old lady on the back
seat. My father looked at her wonder
ingly, and suddenly she threw back a
veil and exposed the smiling features
of Agnes.
This meeting between my father and
mother came back to me as l looked
upon the young couple and saw Their
expression of pleased surprise, only
fancy my fathers was far more ra.
diant.
There vas a clergyman in the coach
and the wedding took place then and

BAY LEAVES AID CUPID.
How One May Learn Identity Of Flu
ture Life Partner.

Do you want TO know who will be
your future husband or wife? Here Is
one method Of drawing aside the veil
of the future. The night before st.
Valentines day pin a bay leaf to each
corner of your pillow and another to
the center. Name each leaf for a per-
son OF the opposite sex In whom you
ARE Interested. Then go TO sleep, and
If you dream Of either OF the five that
person is to be your valentine for life.
Another more heroic method has been
in vogue for hundreds of years. Re
move the yolk of a hard boiled egg and
fill the hollow with salt. Eat the egg.
shell, salt and oil. after going to bed.
Then go to sleep-if you can-without
speaking or drinking. You will dream
that some person brings you a drink.
which you will surely want. and that
person is to be the sharer Of your flu
ture joys and sorrows.
Another method In vogue at valen-
tine parties Is for a man to write the
names OF several girls on slips OF pa
per. roll the slips into pellets of clay
and drop them into the water. The
girl named on the slip that first comes
to the surface is his valentine.

TRIED TO CONVERT SULTAN.

Quakeress Undertook to Turn Leader
Of Faithful Toward Christianity.
The first Englishwoman to have
speech with a sultan Of Turkey was
Mary Fisher, a Quakeress, who, in
1857, undertook to convert the COM
mander Of the faithful to Christianity.
She Travelled by water to Smyrna and
then tramped to Adrianople. about 600
miles away, where Mohammed w. was
encamped with his army. After many
attempts, Mary found some one bold
enough to tell the grand vizier that "a
woman was come who had something
to declare from the great God to the
sultan" He arranged for an audience
with his master, at which three drago-
mans were in attendance as interpre-
tiers. and Mohammed was so impressed
with what he heard that, while unwill-
ing to become a Christian, he desired
that Mary should stay In his domin-
ions. When she insisted OF returning.
he offered her an escort, adding, II
would not for anything that you should
come to the least hurt" She got back
safely to England and was honored
W. after among her fellow Quakers
as "she that spake to the Grand Turk"

WAS standing in a room crowded
with men and women in even
ing dress when l heard a CHEEKY
feminine voice neal me exclaim:
why. Tomr'
what lucki" responded n young
man, with blond hair. parted In the
middle, and his chin held up by a very
high collar.
Il don't know a person here" said
the girl, who had spoken first.
"Nor /. l would rather have met you
than " a gold NINE"
isn't II nice to meet some one you
don't expect. but whom you wish to
meet?"
Happy smiles Illuminated the faces
of these two youngsters, whom it made
me happy to look at. Indeed. there
was one especial reason for my enjoy
men of this pleasant surprise. for it
reminded me of one that had occurred
In my own family years before.
In the sixties-I refer to the last GEN.
tury-my father, then a young man,
went out to Denver to grow up
with a new town. Albert Reeder had
gone there a few years before with his
family for the purpose of building a
stamp mill ON Clear creek. up in the
mountains, and had become interested
In the extraction of gold from ore. My
father. who was as poor as a church
mouse, found work in the service of
Mr.. Reeder and was sent up to one of
his stamp mills, where he soon became
superintendent.
Mr.. Reeder thought my father one
Of the brightest young men in the
world and was ready to do anything
for him till he discovered that his I'm
ployee had a love affair with his daugh-
ter, Agnes. Then he suddenly turned
against him. The trouble was that
Reeder had a prospect of soon becom-
ing very rich and had begun to cherish
expectations of Agnes marrying either
a duke or a prince or something Of that
order.
The young couple were in a peck OF
trouble In consequence of the old mans
refusal to consent to their union. OF
| course the matter rested with Agnes
My father couldn't do anything with
| out her concurrence, and she was in
| disposed to break with her father
But her father must have been uncer
tain of her, for he ordered her to get
ready to go back east to stay awhile
with an aunt. Agnes seemed disposed
to yield to his commands. She wrote
my father that he might come down
from the mill and say goodby to her
He did so and there was a very affect
ing scene between the lovers.

NOTES OF CHURCHES.
Use Of Church In War.

Use Of Church In War.
While waiting for an automobile In
West Flanders, Belgium. to take him
to the battle front a correspondent OF
the Associated Press entered at dawn
the Church Of St Nicholas, the great
clock in the belfry of which lowered
above the historic square in Furnes.
Instead Of the small group Of villagers
that he expected to find listening to
the Christmas masses, he saw 1000
Belgian soldier cyclists bivouacked o n
the floor.
Around the dimly lighted altar IN the
apse a pathetic family group was gath
cred about the coffin Of a small child.
While the clergy intoned the funeral
mass at the side of the church q spe-
cial mass for soldiers was being cele-l
brated, with rows Of mud covered men!
from the trenches kneeling before the
altar.
Down the center Of the church a long
row Of bicycles were stacked, some Of
the Of which busted themselves
In repairing their battered machines.
Most Of the men in the church, how
ever, slept, huddled for warmth in a
thin layer Of straw covering the stone
tagging Of the floor, apparently undis-
turbed by the sonorous notes Of the
great organ which now pealed through
the church. A few soldiers had pro-
cured their morning rations, and they
ate their breakfasts Of black bread OBJ
Hvious of their unusua surroundings.
The scene was almost overpowering-
ly impressive In its mixture Of war and
religion, and yet their existence side
by side in this region, where religion
In the historic past has been sc init
mately connected with war, did not

filtered through the 'oaken doors, and
the ancient gargoyles on the open
beams were lost in ~obscurity. One al
tar was decorated for Christmas, with
its images of the stable Of Bethlehem
arranged about 1t, and here the young
err Belgian soldiers gathered in rev.
erent groups, while a priest chanted a
Christmas mass Of peace on earth,

Priests came and went, townspeople
hurried to early mass and Their away

As the rising sun drove the deep
shadows from the church the roar OF
German guns beginning an attack on

great church became an animated
scene of military activity. The re-
ligious services, however, went on as
before.

A Place For the Boys and Girls
A VALENTINE PARTY.
Wholesome Fun For the Older Boys
and Girls.

Wholesome Fun For the Older Boys
and Girls.
Let good fun be the controlling idea
of the st. Valentine day party, which
may be made very desirable at a slight
cost of money and time. Games should
be consistent with the day. A nice,
quiet one is to distribute papers and
pencils. See how many words can be
made from the word hearts" In ten
minutes. Award a simple ~prize-say,
a heart shaped box filed with candy
hearts.
A game calculated to please the more
alert ones is heart quoits. Cover a
cane with red tissue paper and adorn
it with bows of ribbon. Have the
smallest member of the household in
a white dress covered with red hearts,
hold the cane at Il slight angle, bend
fairly stout wire into shapes of hearts
and wind with lengths of narrow red
Grape paper OF ribbon. The players
are asked to toss these quoits over the
cane, all standing at a certain dis
lance from the little maid holding the
cane. The one who scores the highest
within a definite number of turns re-
ceives a valentine or box of candy
hearts. There can be Il BOBBY prize, If
desired.
Have a postoffice in n corner and
provide jolly. pleasant valentines for
each guest. \ properly dressed Cupid
with bow and arrow hands out the
mail.
Sing the beautiful old love songs
kathleen M~avourneen," Ben Bolt"
annie Laurie and any favorite ones
designated. A pleasant way to match
partners for refreshments is to cut up
paper hearts or valentine postals into
irregular pieces. put half of each
into envelopes and permit the couples
to match up and find their mate.
A valentine party is pure fun If
properly arranged.
