Penny Wise and Pound Foolish

The cost Of living makes every woman
look to see where she can save money,
which, Of course, is sensible and proper if
not carried too far.
It is not economical, however, to attempt
to save by using an inferior alum or phos-
phate baking powder just because it IS
cheap, and thereby risk the quality and
wholesomeness Of the food.
Royal Baking Powder adds only health
full qualities to food because it is made from
cream Of tartar. derived from grapes.
The difference in cost of pan of bis
cults or Of a cake made with Royal Baking
Powder as compared with cheaper powders
made of alum or phosphate of lime, which
are derived from mineral sources, is about
one cent, which is surely too small an
amount to warrant the risk.

After turning down upward of 300 offers
for long and short engagements in the
picture field, Eva Tanguay has finally set
tied upon a fiat figure for her services
Provided the picture people are agree
able she will desert the speaking stage
for run before the camera.
The first offer made Tanguay for screen
work carried bonus of $4,000 for her
signature to a two-year contract, the man
ufacturer guaranteeing a weekly salary OF
$500. This was later raised to S,Oo
weekly, with the privilege of 80 per cent.
of the net profits. That offer was made
TO Miss Tanguay early last season and
promptly refused. Since then about every
recognized manufacturer in the Industry
has made overtures for a Tanguay con-
tract the highest bidder offering STD
weekly for an lS-month engagement.
Others included in addition to the salary
arrangement an interest in each of the
Tanguay releases. While this offer was
not accepted. Miss Tanguay countered
with a proposition that may eventually
be met by the manufacturer, Tanguay
asking for $4,000 weekly and a three-year

| this sum would affiX her name to the list
of screen stars.

FORESTRY PROGRESS IN THE PHIL
IPPINES.

Manila, T. L-Filipinos are taking Keen
and active interest in the work of con-
serving their wonderful wealth in woods
and forests. In cooperation with the for
estry bureau at Manila, special educa-
ton in forestry matters is carried on
throughout the $50 islands Experts
trained by the bureau lecture in even the
smallest towns and barrios. Everywhere
they draw good audiences.
According to acting director klemmo,
during the past year. l,2o7 individual talks
had been given by forest officers. The
result of this propaganda has been very
gratifying, and the attitude of the people
towards this bureau has improved con-
siderably. In many parts Of the islands
where forest officers were considered for
merly as men to be feared and avoided,
because they would fine people for il
legally cutting timber. the people have
come to realize that the first aim of the
bureau of forestry is to work for the wei
fare of the Filipino people in carrying out
tho provisions of the forest act, which
have been drawn up so as to provide foI
the protection Of the public interests, tn,
utility and safety of forests, and theil
perpetuation in productive condition by

RED APPLES AND GREEN HILLS.
(From the Philadelphia Ledger

CFrom the Philadelphia Ledger
From the office Of the secretary of State
of Vermont is sent broadcast an enticinS
little volume dressed in blue and buff
bearing the caption Vermont Farms.
The text and pictures are redocnt of the
atmosphere Of the Green Mountain state
with it's mountains and meadow lands and
water brooks, it's kline and orchards and
murmurous fields of clover; and it looks
like a sort of advertising that is sure
to bring returns. One long in city pent,'
especially at this season of the year,
looks on this picture and on that of elm
shaded farmsteadS, of buXom hoSsieS prod
igal of milk, of Stalwart Morgan horses,
of sap-gathering in snowy woods of APP
pie trees abloom, of championship pota-
toes and corn and string beans-and no
does not wonder at the loyalty of a thrift
ty sturdy population to their heritage in
spite of the cityward trend and the farm
| abandoned.
This literature is sent out to disabuse
the public of the idea that Vermont is a
bleak, sub-Arctic region where scanty
| living is wrested from reluctant soil in
a fierce, short summertime The aver

Ohio's 50, Indiana's a, Michigan's 90 acres.
Vermont is rich in marble, in timber in
cattle, in apples and other fruit, in dairy
products of all kinds. Fern gathering
for florists is becoming considerable
business. and in recent year Vermont
produced nearly twice as many butter
nuts, hickorynuts and beechnuts as all the
other New England States combined.
| John G. SAKE was right when he wrote
that Vermont was celebrated for these
four products:
Men, women, maple sugar and horses
The first are strong, the latter fleet.
The second and third exceedingly sweet
And all are uncomonly hard to beat

My neighbor has a daughter who
Takes singing lessons. as girls do.
She practices tho morning long:
Six weeks she's sung the same old song.
My neighbor has raft of boys.
Who make a most astounding noise,
They play baseball, and one old cat
For racket there's some class to that
My neighbor has three charming maids,
And you should hear the serenades
The young men sing beneath their bower;
1t doesn't matter at what hour.
A panola, too, has he.
He hits 1t up In greatest glee.
He starts to playing II at eight:
TIL midnight he keeps up his gait.
MY neghbor has a kid that yells
From midnight on w frequent spells.
He keeps on yelling until dawn;
Then dad gets up and mows the lawn.
Performance Is continuous.
But still. the neighbor next to us
Is one of many on the pike,
For neighbors are most all alike
