Prove What Swamp-Root Viii Do For Yc
"Hah Do

Among the recruits to Kitchener S
army are, of course, many who are
ignorant Of all military etiquette.
One OF these was sitting alone in
the messroom when the colonel
stalked in. The Tommy was seated
on the edge of the table swinging his
legs and putting at a cigarette. The
only move he made was jerk of the
head, while he grunted something.
The colonel was not accustomed to
being treated like this.
Attention." he roared. What do
you mean by failing to salute your
commanding officeY?'
The recruit was frankly surprised.
He even took the cigarette out of his
mouth as he answered alphabetically:
Nay, there's nowt wrong, sir. All
said 'Hah do.

Another woman also uses dates in

recipes:
Rub skinned and boned sardines to
a paste and then gradually blend with
a little lemon Juice; may be added to
butter to give it very desirable sand

noon tea sandwiches can be mixed
with chopped nuts and figs or any
other sweet filing. Grated orange
rind, too. is good to add to the butter.
Olives may be ground in vegetable

creamed into butter. Capers are
chopped and creamed with butter, and
either Of these can be used on broiled

MINES BY NO MEANS STUFTY
UNDERGROUND Visitor is Conscious of
Sweep OF Air Against Him
at All Times.

To the layman the thought Of the
miner in the "stufy" mine is rather
an uncomfortable one. AS a matter
OF fact, the miner breathes more pure
air during working hours than the
operatives in most mills and factories.
Necessity and state law alike re-
Quire that every tunnel shall be par
alleled with an air shaft-a monkey
it is called in the parlance Of the
mines. The law requires the COM
panies to pump into the mines 200
cubic feet of air minute for every
man and 500 cubic feet for every
mule In the farthest reaches of these
underground tunnels the visitor is con-
scious OF a sweep of air against him
at all times.
The temperature in the mines nee
essarily varies with that OF the sur
face, for the immense shafts take the
air from the outside and force it
down in continuous stream. Natu-
rally all chambers are run through
solid coal wherever possible. and the
six feet high. contribute their share
in many cases to the output of the
mine. OF course, to be effective, the
air must be given complete Circula-
ton, and the continual thrush of pure
air from the outside has it's use also
in minimizing gas explosions and re-
moving dangerous gases rapidly.
