A Symbol of Health.

The pythagorians of Ancient
Greece ate simple food, practic-

a badge they used the five point
ed star which they regarded as
a symbol of health. A red five
pointed star appears on each
package of Chamberlain's Tab
let's, and still fulfls its ancient
mission as a symbol of health. If
you are troubled with indiges-
ton, biliousness or constipation,
get a package of these tablets
from your druggist. You will be
surprised at the quick relief
which they afford. Obtainable

On many farms, however, it is
merely a matter of picking up
hickory nuts, hazel-nuts or wal
nuts instead of letting the hogs
get them, and on a great many
others it is very easy matter to
raise peanuts enough for the
family and have plenty to fatten
a few hogs.
Those who wish to try some
meat substitute dishes can Sc
cure directions for making them

lege of Agriculture at Columbia.

Cottage Cheese-Use sour
milk that has set. Warm it
slowly in a double boiler if one it
at hand until the whey sepa-
rates from the curd. Then
strain through chese-cloth, chop
fine, mix with milk or cream,
season to taste. Be careful not
to heat too long or too hot be-
fore straining or the curd will be
tough.
Dreamed Fish in Rice Cases
Line a buttered mold about a
quarter of an inch thick with
boiled rice. Fill with chopped
or boned salmon or other fish to
which thick white sauce has
been added. Brown slightly in
the oven, turn from the mold,
and serve.

Cheaper Than Meat.

The high meat bill is a great
cause of the high cost of living.
Many people believe that meats
are absolutely necessary, anc
they do have the advantage OF
having a good flavor and being
very easily and quickly cooked.
but many of us would have big
ger pocketbooks and better
health if we spent for meat only
a sixth instead of a third of
what We pay for food. One OF
the members of the Home Econ
omics faculty of the University
of Missouri goes home to the
farm every summer where her
father and brothers are doing
plenty of hard outdoor work. She
gives her mother a vacation,
takes charge in the kitchen her
self, and feds the household to
a large extent on meat substi-
tutes which they seem to find
well adapted to their needs.
Fish is not as good a meat
substitute as many people be.
lieve for while it seems less
heavy, it is not less likely tt
form Objectionable acids, but
milk, milk products, and eggs
are good things to use instead Of
so much meat. A quart of milk
or 8 or 9 eggs has about as high
a food value as a pound Of the
best steak, but on most markets
will cost much less. Other whole
some dishes which should bt
used to take the place of meat
are soups, cottage cheese, cream
sauces, variously favored pud.
dings made of milk and cereal Of
different kinds, and countless
other economical, nutritious
easily digested dishes which any
good housewife knows how t
prepare.
Boiled eggs cooked in watel
below the boiling point are not az
hard to digest as many people
believe, but if cooked in very no.
water, they are more likely t
be leatherly and hard to digest
Fried eggs are also more digest
able if cooked slowly.
Nuts are becoming more pop
ular as meat substitutes, al
though many kinds of nuts ar
not cheaper than meat if bough
on the market at present prices

Grain For The Skim-Milk Calf.
Calves are usually fed whole
milk for two to three weeks,
then gradually changed to skim
milk. About the time of chang
ing, begin to feed a little grain
but do not think that it is nee
essary to use oil meal or any
othed high-priced feed, high in
protein, or fat, or both. Ex-
perience at the Missouri Agri-
cultural Experiment Station
shows that a mixture of two
parts of corn and one part of
oats, by weight, gives as good
results as oil meal and ready
mixed calf meals often purchased
at much higher prices. Bran
is not especially good for the
young calf because it is too
laxative. The grain mixture
should be fed Immediately after
the milk, and neither should be
fed too literally or scours may
result. w. King, Missouri

ASK $4,000 A DAY
FOR BELGIAN RELIEF
&C. r. g." Appeals to America
to Help in Feeding 100000
Destitute.


In an effort to alleviate the
wretchedness among the desti-
tute in Northern France as re-
vealed in Herbert Hoover's re-
ports recently published, the
Commission for Relief in Bel
glum yesterday issued an APP
peal to the American people and
to American patriotism for ad-
ditional help in its work. Mr..
Hoover stated that lack of food
supplies forced a reduction in the
daily ration for March almost to
the starvation point, and if
more help is not Immediately
Forthcoming, the death rate, al
ready doubled in many sections
since December, will increase.
In its new appeal the Commiss-
ion for Relief in Belgium asks
for a daily contribution of S70,-
900 to feed the 1000, 900 desti-
tute in the enemy-occupied por-
ton of France This amount is
based on seven cents a day, the
actual cost of one days ration
for one person.
Look to America for Aid.
"The people of America" the
statement reads, "have never
been known to shirk their duty
when the cry for help from dis
tressed countries reached them.
There are millions of happy,
prosperous persons in the United
States on whom the shadow of
the worlds tragedy abroad has
not fallen. 1t is to these people
that the wall of the helpless
women and children in Northern
France is directed. The Stars
and Stripes mean their very
life's sustenance.
Europe knows our generosity
through our travellers abroad.
The $4,000 in daily contribu-
tons asked for is a small amount
from a population of 100, 000, 900.
1T can and will be donated.
Americans have not given very
much to the Commission for
Relief in Belgium's work-the
total amounts to about $780,
900 or about seven and a half
cents per capita. Of course this
is not due to any callousness of
the American people, but in a
manner to thOughtlesseness and
if the generous Americans for
sake these innocent babes and
women they will place a black
blot on our national honor. The
work of the Commission for Re-
lief in Belgium and Northern
France look to America and
the American flag to save them,
and this life-fund asked is so
small to the individual. Take
one of those unfortunate vic
Tins of the war as your special
ward. Contribute seven cents a
day to feed her. Give your mite
to help relieving her suffering.
