The green bean when from three
fourths to full grown has been found
to compare favorably with the butter
or Lima bean.
The dried beans may be used like
the field or navy bean In baking or in
soups. When prepared in either Of
these ways the beans require some
what longer soaking and cooking.
The soy bean has been sold in this
country to some extent as a coffee
bean. When roasted and prepared it
makes an excellent substitute for cof-
fee.
Soy bean meal or -four may be used
as a constituent Of biscuits, mullins,
and bread; in fact, in any recipe where
corn meal Is used. In the various
preparations three -fourths soy flour or
meal and ne-fourth wheat flour are
recommended.
Soy Bean Oil and Cake.
Soy beans, in addition to their for
age and food value, contain valuable
vegetable oil. The yield Of oil varies
to a great degree with the variety,
ranging from IA to "a per cent. The
oil is utilized to a great extent in
Europe and the United States for culi-
nary purposes, as paint oil, in soap
manufacture and in many other in
dustries.
The soy bean cake, remaining after
the oil is expressed, is made up into
meal and makes a highly nitrogenous
food. Practical experience, supple
mented by careful experiments, indi-
Gates the value Of the meal as food
for all kinds Of live stock.

She has reared them like old-fashion-

the ordinary tone Of colloquy. He
does not rush to claim the credit for
being the beginner-he does not need
to make haste to ascribe to himself
the glory. He does not talk much,
but what he says is to the point.
Whatever he wants. he wants hard
enough to go after it and get 1t, and
If those who are supposed to fetch
for him are not sufficiently fast upon
their feet-lo! he is there and back
before them; yet sometimes he is
strangely patient with their dilatori-
ness.
The really little" man is a dreamer
Of dreams he never means to execute
an eye-servant careful to hold his
verbal dress parades as close as he
can get to his chief. His horizons
are small; he cannot follow the course
of a dollar as far as a trained golfer
can observe the trajectory Of driven
ball. His torpid imagination and his
unillumined sympathy run into the
blood Of every work in which he takes
a part, and harden the arteries of
whatever humanity and liberality may
live in its design.
The master of men does not lose
sight Of the forest for all its trees;
he never Is enmeshed in the maZes Of
papers on which words stand printed
and written; he cuts through techni-
calities as Alexander sliced the Gordin
knot; he divines unerringly the point,
and separates the chaff Of the imma-
terial from the good, clean wheat Of
the meaning of 1t all. His own prop
erty is not permitted to tyrannize
over him; he is bigger and stronger
than everything he owns: 1t is feel
ings, not objects, that possess him, and
these feelings are not the petty emo
tions Of jealousy, parsimony, vindic-
tiveness, that sway the souls Of lesser
individuals. 1t must be nobler
transport, or it has no power upon
him. It must not debase him to the
servitude of mean and base ideals, but
exalt him to the magnificent freedom
wherein great souls abide. 1t teach
es him to regard as small many things
which impress themselves on others
as all-important. 1t humbles him
with the feeling that he Is the serv-
ant of a mightier Power always, and
that success which crowns him in
the estimate of men is not an apotheo-
sis-he Is still a man.-Philadelph
Ledger.

Time for Men to Take New Meas
urement Of Themselves
The war must bring the glow Of
honest shame to the cheek Of good
many persons who are made to real
ize how small they and their affairs
measure against the Redeemed land
scape. II the war has called halt
on the evolution of beauty in art and
architecture, on private advantages
and public utilities, on works Of chart-
ty and wheels of industry, 1t has also
called a halt on many a mans over
weening and aggrandized estimation
Of himself. He must revise his scale
Of values. He must regulate the ther-
mometer that takes the temperature OF
his passions. He must reject his
false weights and measures, whereby
he sought to cheat his own soul into
thinking his bargains fair. A new
bureau Of standards Is set up, whose
business is not physical but spiritual
mensuration, calling a mans personal
rectitude into account.
The size Of things as we see them
depends on our own size. The Ant

are fond Of recapitulating past chap
ters in which they think they played
large part They name their
empty honors. They form societies
to pamper and dandle a petty digni-
ty. One tires Of their incessant love-
song to themselves. their one-string
serenade.
The great. surprising shock to the
mere onlooker Is that when issues of
life and death are mooted, and the
fate Of a nation trembles in the bal
ance, there still is time and room
anywhere to quarrel over petty de-
| tails of ways and means. Certain men
cannot see that the deluge is after
them and round about them, If they
do not act at once; yet they must in
terpose minute and querulous objec-
tiOns in order to be heard. Men with
enterprises of moment warmly await
ing them grow restive. Their work Is
tied down by little strings. like Gull
liver lashed securely by the minute
| webbing of the Lilliputians. They
gnash their teeth with impotent rage
to find themselves frustrated by these
petty affairs whose sum total comes
so near to zero. Yet they must ''be
patient and proud and soberly ac-
quiesce," making no fuss over the loss
that delay brings in it's train. There
Is no society for the Suppression of
| Unnecessary Noises that they can
call upon to silence those whose love-
liest music is the sound of their own
ces-insuppressible toastmasters at
life's banquet, who want to do all the
talking themselves, or at least estab-
lish a severe time limit for every one
else.

One day the doctor was taking his
