mercy of abroad trust, if there is such
a thing.
It is the easiest thing in the world
to make bread. 1t is easy to make
good bread. 1t is also easy to make
bad bread.
!, So if the price of bread goes high
er than it should, the women can take
week off fromthe work of uplifting,
re-learn the ancient art and begin
again to make bread.
There is no waste in home bread
making, flour by the sack can be
bought about as cheaply as -four by
the barrel.
I The fact is bread making ought to
have remained home art and home
duty Just as much as roasting piece
of beef
1t is not up to the women to abuse
the bakers for raising the price OF
bread. The price of bread is, as a
matter of fact, almost automatically
controlled by the price of flour
If the bakers margin of profit is toe
great the housekeepers have a quick
remedy. They can buy a sack OF

biscuits. If they are not on to the

JUSTICE OF PEACE,
EIGHTY YEARS OLD,
GAINS TWENTY LBS.
Father Can Now Do as Good Days
Work as Cam Says Grateful
Son

Z. WI. Arnold, Familiarity known
as Bill Arnold by his hundreds of
friends and fellow-workers on the
Southern Railway, came into Jacobs
Marietta Street Pharmacy, Atlanta,
a few days ago to buy a bottle of
Tanlac, and while there made "a
statement that is probably one of the
most remarkable ever given a pro-
prietary medicine.
Speaking of his father, Esquire S.
p. Arnold, who lives on R. F. d.
No. |, Lost Mountain, Ca, and who
is justice of the peace, and one of
the best known men of the section,
the son said:
My father is eighty years old,
and if everybody could see what this
Tanlac has done for him, us railroad
men would have hard time haul-s
ing enough of it over this country
to supply the people. It's an actual
fact that he hadn't been able to eat
meat or any kind of greasy food for
ten or twelve years until he took
Tanlac, and now he can just eat
anything and has gained twenty
lcunds.
He was weak and all rundown
from his stomach trouble that had
been with him for good many
years, and it just seemed like he
couldn't eat anything that would
agree with him and give him any
strength and he had to be mighty
careful all the time about his eating.
He would have to spit up undigested
food, and his stomach just seemed
like it had gone back on him for
good and all.
"A few days ago he came to see
me and / was surprised to see h'cw
strong and well he looked, and l
asked him what on earth he had
been doing to himself. He said he
had taken five bottles of Tanlac. 1t
was such a pleasure to see him sit
up at the table and enjoy his meals
that l simply couldn't help coming
right UP here and telling you what
this medicine had done.
"lIe weighs more than he has IN
fifty years-just think of that. Ana
! honestly believe he can do as good
a days work as l can He says his
stomach trouble has left him entire
, w. and that he feels better than he
has in a good many years. lie says
he's as sound as dollar new ana
t expects to stay that way as long as
there's any Tanlac to be gotten in
this part of the country.
MY brothers wife has been tax
ing Tanlac, too, and it has helped
her right much. She says she feels
hundred per cent better and is eat
ing right along.
Il am really glad to give you TINS
4 statement, for it gives me so mucl
pleasure to see father come to th'
d table and eat his share OF everythin'
r that GENES on that ! feel like telling
everybody about it. 1t is in my opin
j ION the greatest medicine ever dis
! covered, and everybody ought to tail
it up.

The First War.

The first writing known to scholars
was the account of a war waged be-
tween hostile nations in Mesopotamia,
perhaps $500 B. G. The first battle
was that between Cain and Abel. APP
parently men have always been quick
to settle their differences by fighting.
The first warlike king is said to have
been Osymandyas of Egypt, who pass
ed into Asia and conquered Bactria in
21OO B. C. Palamedes Bacgos is
mythically reported to have been the
first who ranged an army in a regular
line Of battle. placed sentinels round a
camp and excited the soldiers vigi-
lance by giving him a password. This
occurred during the siege Of Troy, the
date of which is variously estimated at
about $500 years before the Christian
era.-Pittsburgh Press.

dced light in house from which the
family and servants had gone out of
town. After the officer had pulled the
bell several times a man put his head
out of the bedroom window to say that

He came down in dressing gown and
carrying candle in his hand.

he had just run up to town to see that
all was right After chatting for a lit

glass of wine. He lit the dining room

After they had drunk each others
health he let the constable out and
bolted the door after him.
The man lost no time in getting the
"swag" together and left the house by
another exit.

but the general opinion is expressed by
all thinking Turks that before long
their women will make their first ap-
pearance as actresses.
The emancipation Of women In Tur-
key has made remarkable progress
since the beginning Of the war. In the
best society in Constantinople the wo-
men no longer wear their wells when
receiving their guests. Though wells
continue to be worn by the Turkish
women In the street, still the fashion
has made them so flimsy and transpar-
ent that they might just as well be dis
pensed with.
Consequently all the fascination and
mystery that heretofore has surround
ed the harem has suddenly disappeared.
There is no longer any such thing, and
In its place there is simply the usual
family life. The Turkish woman is as
much housewife as her European sis
ter, and in this war her resources have
been taxed to the utmost Despite the
fact that the rich agricultural country
Of Anatolia is not far distant, the prices
Of all necessaries Of life have increased
enormously.
Turkey has awakened from its long
lethargy, and the war has brought a
new life in the empire. Progress is
now the keynote, and the indications
are that within a few years CONSTANT
nople will be one Of the most advanced
cities in the world.

1adrid-The king and queen OF
Spain and their family have spent ths
past few months here, although the.
hing has been on various shooting ex-
cursions, making visits to his friends
IN the country. Among his hosts have
been the Duke Of Tarifa, who has a
great estate near Cadiz, and Count
Gavea, who entertained his majesty at
Santa Cruz de Mudela. Returning to
Madrid from one Of these excursions to
open a workmen's club, the king was
saved from running over one Of his
subjects by the quick wit Of the chauf-
feur. As the royal car was entering
the Puerta Del Sol a man attempting
suicide threw himself before the car.
The same person, who had been de-
clared a maniac, tried to enter the
royal palace last November, telling the
attendants that the king owed him u
small sum Of money, and he wanted to
get it.

UNIV TO DETECT BAD MEATS

u... Caterer For a Family Knows the
Inference Between Fresh and Stale
roodstuffs ptomaine Poisoning and
o+bsr Serious Ills May Be Avoided.
Smoked meats and fish are bad when
.hov are flabby to the touch and have
rancid, sour smell.
clsssed meat products are bad when
.hov have a rancid, sour smell and
Uben the color differs from the fresh
product.
Good fresh pork is solid, has pure
vbite fat and pink flesh. Do not buy
nork that is soft and yellow.
Remember that lamb or mutton
sbould he firm. close grained and light
nod in color. with fat that is white and
hard.
Reef should be of a rosy red color,
with cream cGlored, firm, elastic fat
and scarcely moist when touched with
the finger Do not buy wet, flabby beef
that is pale and purple.
All shrilfsh should smell fresh, and
tbe shells should close firmly when put
info water or touched with the finger.
SbeIlfsh should be alive when cooked.
Fresh veal is pale red unless milk
fed. when it is light. with firm, white
fat between the muscles and surround
ing tissues and scarcely moist to the
touch. Bad veal is soft, mushy, sticky
and has Il very red tinge, while the fat
has a grayish lead color.
Fresh fish should have red giIls,
moist. bright scales and clear eyes, and
should he firm and rigid when handled.
Stale fish is flabby, has dull scales, the
eyes are sunken and covered with a
film, the ellis are pale or of greenish
color. ana the fish has bad odor. All
lumpy fish should be rejected as the
growth may be cancer.
To detect decOmposing meats in cans
before opening inspect the ends Of the
can and if they bulge, discard the can.
This bullying is due to accumulated
gases of decomposition that push the
ends outward by force of pressure
Leaking and rusty cans should also be
discarded Canned meats should be
free from mold. The odor Of such
meats should be the same as when
freshly prepared. If the meat is putrid
exposure to heat will make it possible
to detect the foul odor.
