Take Only the Best

"rhe best is none too good for me-"
Keep that thought in mind until the
habit Of claiming the best has become
fixed.
Some people have the idea that
cheap, sensational stories are good
enough for them. and so they All their
minds with trash. while In the nearest
libraries the volumes Of the worlds
choicest literature gather dust. They
say that ragtime Is good enough for
them and cheaper their taste by lis
tening to the swing of some catchy
composition, when good music Is to be
had for the same price. In effect they
say that second-rate people are good
enough for them, and they associate
with the coarse and unprincipled, pass
ing by those with clean lives and lofty
aspirations.
Only the best is good enough for
you. That does not include big
houses and blazing diamonds, but 1t
does cover the liner, sweeter things OF
existence. And the sad part Is that
many who are satisfying themselves
with the husks, are tramping under
foot the sweet, nutritious grain.

California makes the trouble and ex-

California ought to have given the

state which demands the privilege of

TO END RACE DETERIORATION
Matter That 10 Very Largely In the
Hands OF the Mothers Of

In 20 years." declares q noted leader

what accounts for this appalling in
creasef There Is lack OF that some
thing In the human system which Is
necessary to guard 1t against deterio-
ration and the threatening multitudes
OF the ever-present microbes. The In
visible enemies have conquered. How
much of this Is owing to our imper-
feet knowledge of the relative values
of the elements contained In foods, ~
the lack of adequate and hygienic
heating, ventilating and plumbing sys-
tens, to the feeding of the nation on
denatured and adulterated food. we do
not know. But a realization OF the
seriousness Of this question makes us
feel that the general haphazard occu-
patton of housewife requires the most
intelligent attention of every woman
who takes II up.
ut is only recently that women have
begun to realize that housekeeping is
q profession requiring their best in-
telligence, and that 1t can and should
be standardized. For years the kitchen
has been relegated to the basement
or to the darkest corner of the apart

by the average housekeeper. This
should not be. The solution of the
food problem is in the hands of the
women. Wholesome, nutritious food Is
absolutely essential to the well-beipg
OF the family. You cannot success
fully feed fine racehorse on waste
products, and you cannot nourish a
fine race of people on poor food"
