housewife thai makes her smile with
satisfaction.
In the past few years the consump-
ton of macaroni and spaghetti prod
ucts in the United States has grown
in leaps and bounds. Show the av-
erage American a good thing and she
or he is quick to adopt it. In the
finest hotels and cafes IN our big cit
les, the popularity of spaghetti dishes
has been remarkable. Today you cam
not pick up a menu in the best res
taurants or most exclusive clubs that
does not feature rnacaroni or spaghetti
in some and the "Maltre de
Hotel" or head waiter, will tell you
the dish is growing in demand every
day.
One reason for the growing popular
ity OF macaroni products in this coun-
try is the fact that large and spotless-
ly clean American factories nave been
built during the past few years for the
manufacture of the finest quality of
macaroni and spaghetti the world has
| yet produced. Until recently Italy and
France were the only nations turning
out such products; but Durum wheat,
from which macaroni products are
made, grows to greater perrectlon IN
the middle western states than IN any
other place on the globe, even sur
passing the product of Russia from
whence the seed was imported by the
United States department of agricul-
ture several years ago. The Durufn
wheat, which is .icher in gluten than
any other variety, is ground into what
is technically termed by millers, Sem
DINA" a fairly coarse flour MADE
from the berry of the wheat, from
which only the outer covering or bran
has been removed. This is mixed with
pure water and kneaded into a dough
in large machines. The dough is put
into hydraulic presses and comes out
through dies in q variety OF shapes
The product is then put through a
curing process in humidors and drying
rooms, which must be maintained al
a specific degree of humidity and tenn
perature and finally is packed in dust
and moisture proof cartons and boxes
The American system of manufac-
turing macaroni and spaghetti Is sc
clean, so efficient, and so much SUI
perior to the foreign process that 1t Is
small wonder the wideawake house
wives here are quickly adopting this
most healthful food as one of thetf
staple articles of diet, and it is not toe
much to predict hat these products
bearing the label. Made in U. S. A.
will be found in use the world over
before many years nave elapsed.

For centuries Europeans on the

used macaroni m spaghetti as their

largely due to u surplus production

GRAY Tail was a squirrel who lived
In the wood and had his home IN a
high oak tree.
All day long he searched under the
trees. AS soon as he would find a
sound nut he would put it in his mouth
and, as soon as his mouth was full, ne
would up the tree to the hole
where he was to live all winter, ana
safely store the nuts away. In a re"
lays the hole was we'll filled and Gray
Tail knew that he was safe for the
winter.
One day he was searching among the
leaves to sec if he could not find the
biggest nut in the forest, when bang
there fell from the branch above him
the largest nut ne had ever seen. 1t
struck the ground with a loud noise,
and, bounding along, rolled down the
hill.
Gray Tail ran after it as fast as he
could go, but the nut, instead Of stop
ping, seemed to roll faster the farther
it went. Gray Tail, however, was a
pretty lively squirrel and, by a little
extra exertion. had almost caught up
with it, when the nut disappeared in a
hole in the ground.
GRAY Tail was going SO fast and was
so intent on getting the nut that he
! went right after 1t, and, as the nut went
bounding down the hole, Gray Tail fol-
| lowed it. Il wonder where that nut is
| going?" he asked himself, and just then
! he saw the IL go bang against a door
and stop.
1t did not seem any time at all be-
| fore the door opened and the queerest
little mar Gray Tail ever saw stuck his
head out and said: Who is there?"
OF course the nut could not answer
! and, as the strange man looked right
| at Gray Tail, he had to say something,
| so he said, 81 am Gray Tail, the SPUR
rel that lives in the big oak a little
| way from here"
And what do you want?" asked the
strange little man.
He told the little man the truth about
how the nut had fallen from the tree
and how he had chased it n that was
why he was there.
rs this the first time you We're ever
under the ground?" asked the little
man.
1T is indeed" said Gray Tail, and

along with him.. The first thing Cob

When people realize the injurious
effects Of coffee and the better health
that a change to Postum can bring,
they are usually glad to lend their
testimony for the benefit of others.
MY mother, since her early child
hood, vas an inveterate coffee drink
er, had been troubled with her heart
for a number of years and complained
of that 'weak-all-over' feeling and sick
stomach.
Some time ago I was making q
visit to a distant part of the country
and took dinner with one of the mer-
chants Of the place. I noticed a some
what unusual flavor Of the coffee
and asked him concerning it. He re-
piled that it was Postum.
Il was so pleased with it that I
bought a package to carry home with
me, and had wife prepare some for
the next meal. The whole family
liked it SO well that we discontinued
coffee and used Postum entirely.
Il had been very anxious concern
ing my mothers condition. but We
noticed that after using Postum for
a short time she fel. much better, had
little trouble with her heart, and no
sick stomach; that the headaches
were not SO frequent, and her general
condition much improved. This con-
tinued until she was well and hearty.

self and the other members Of the
family, especially my mother, as she
was a victim of long standing" Name

PAPER WASTE.
s17o,ooo,ooo Worth of 1t a Year I
In the United States. 4

-
A new invention that promises to
reyolutionize paper making has just
been commercially launched. Hereto
fore paper stock became practically a
dead loss the moment ink of any III
touched it and so $40, 600, 900 a year
disappeared. 1t is said nc papermaker
and no chemist could ever have dis
covered the new "WElestock Process"
by which this vast waste nay be
largely stopped because 1T revolution
ICES the process of paper making n
new process is mechanical.
A writer who Went to the American
Bank Note company's plant to see II
thus explatiates upon the subject:
In all my experiences in the paper
industry have l ever witnessed such a
demonstration of reducing paper stock
to pulp without injuring the fiber in
any way, for every particle Of fiber that
originally existed in the paper stock
when it was thrown into this chamber
remained in it. When it was dumped
into the stuff chests there was prac-
tically no loss of fiber for the reason
that there was no beating or cutting or
grinding. 1t was simply the result OF
the terrific circulation that this paper
stock went through.
Just What this new "Wlnestock
Process" is may be best described by
the following brief phs, which
SA ~ ~
ing of the new invention:
An almost wholly mechanical method
of retaining waste paper and remov-
ing all kinds Of ink.
A process which will reduce the cost
of making original pulp.
The highest form OF waste paper re-
clamation that the world has ever seen.
A process which has been under the
observation of the United States gov
eminent officials for more than two
years.
A process which ex-President Taf.
referred to congress in a message an
nouncing it would save the government
500 900 a year in reclaiming cancelled
paper money aion
Both conservation and reclamation,
which will help save the forests of the
nation.
The only invention of it's Kind in the
| world.
A commercial process which experts
and conservative business men have
declared will prove to be a large pro-
ducer of revenue.
A process which has been developed
to the highest state Of commercial eff

An invention which has been called
a revolution in the paper industry.

The old time shirtwaist has gone,
perhaps forever. For the last few years
we have had nothing to take it's place.
We have worn chiffon and crepe
blouses, and lingerie blouses of more or
less simplicity or elaborateness. But
we haven't had the plain, substantial
old shirtwaist. A year or so ago what
We're called sport blouses came into
being for sports wear. They APP
proximated the old shirtwaist. but
they were short sleeved n their wide.
rundown collars robbed them of any
air of severity.
Last winter, however, the tailored
blouse appeared, and it is as much like
the regulation shirtwaist of times past
as anything we have nowadays could
be. To. be sure, 1t is sometimes quite
elaborate; sometimes 1t is even made
of chiffon. But in some of it's phases
it is a regulation shirtwaist.
1t is a blouse of endless use and end
less possibilities for becomingness and
smartness. And the oma who must
get through the winter on a moderate
clothes allowance will do we'll to in
clude the tailored blouse in her reckon-
ing.
A tailored blouse in taffeta can be
worn for calling, teas, matinees and
various other afternoon diversions. The
smartest sort, of course, has a high COL
lar, but this can be of the convertible
type, SO that it may be worn open if
desired. To many women the open
collar is SO much more becoming thar
the high, closed one that it may well
be worn in spite Of fashion.
The tailored blouse depends for it's
trimmings on buttons, stitching, tucks
and flat trimmings of straps, bands
and points. A blouse of deep rose
taffet, with his smoked pearl buttons,
| a convertible collar and deep cuffs, but
toned snugly about the wrist, is a very
useful sort. with a dark cloth suit. One

Then there are linen blouses, made
with as much severity as the taffeta
ones. and these, too, are useful and be-
coming. In deep rose or in old blue one
Of these blouSes is particularly at
! tractive.
Pongee forms a good fabric for
blouses. and a little shocking on the
| sleeves and front adds to the becom-
ingness of such a blouse, usually. Jap-

blouse is not becoming, try wearing

becoming to many who cannot wear
a high silk collar becomingly.
