COOKING UTENSILS OF GLASS
Baking Dishes Made Of New Material
Have Been Found Very Satisfac-
tory and Almost Unbreakable.

A new material now on the market
for cooking utensils is glass. A great
variety of cooking dishes are made,
but the baking dishes or casseroles,
would probably appeal most to the
h~ome-keeper. No silver or copper con
tainer Is required for the casserole
when put on the table and hence they
are comparatively inexpensive.
A great variety of dishes have been
cooked in the glass casserole with
splendid results. The material is
cooked uniformly throughout the dish,
due to the conductiyity of glass and
the results have been just as gooo
with a soufle as with a meat pie.
The oven can be better regulated
since IN can see the material cook
ing in the dish. e. one can see
whether it is cooking too fast or too
slow.
The utensils are attractive and
seem to be almost ~unbreakable.
The casserole has proved to be the
most satisfactory baking dish we
have ever neutrality-suspicious. Hahn,

Collins, Colo.

q ECONOMIC DIGESTION
The Eating OF Vegetables Without
Mastication Is Productive of
Gastric Rebellion.

Indigestion is often attributed to
hasty eating, and people are re-
proved and rightly so, for boiling their
food; but it is interesting TO observe
that while the boiling of meat Is al
ways severely censured. one never
hears any blame attached to those who
swallow fruit by the mouthful, and de-
your uncooked vegetables without any
attempt at mastication. Nevertheless,
1t is the hasty swallower of vegetable
fiber who is really the inciter of gas
tric rebellion. Vegetables are, at all
times, very imperfectly digested by the
stomach, and require their tough
fbers to be thoroughly broken up by
the teeth if they are to be dissolved
even in the bowel.
There is a well-known saying which
AYERS that digestion waits upon appe-
tite, and there is no doubt that of all
the helps to digestion a keen desire for
food is the most powerful and impor-
tant. But appetite itself often de-
ponds upon conditions which are indie
pendent Of the body's absolute necessi-
ties. Thus the aspect Of the food, its
smell, taste and even the manner In
which 1t is served, all help either to
stimulate a desire for it, or to induce
a sense of aversion, while the environ
ment OF the diner often exercises i'm
portant influence, beneficial or other
wise. Brain work of any kind inter.
feres with the rapid digestion OF food,
and v the habit of reading during
meal times, practiced by so many, is
conducive neither to appetite nor d.
gestion. A well-lighted room, music and
frivolous conversation will often per-
NIT a chronic dyspeptic to enjoy with
out remorse. the pleasures of the table,
while a depressing atmosphere, uncon-
genial company and unappetizing
dishes may induce a fit of indigestion
in the most healthy individual.-Food
and Cookery.

Hanten says the assessed valuation OF
Watertown is less than s 9 1000. 0O0, 900,

HOW LLOYD-GEORGE WORKS
Depends Much on Secretaries and
Never Writes a Letter II
He Can Help It.

II Is said that Lloyd-George, the
much on his secretaries, and eve
writes n letter If he can help 1t. He
has n knaCk of getting the men he
wants and of getting a lot of work
out of them, and, as would be expect
ed, sees that they are properly re-
warded. When he went to the war
office Lloyd-George took three of his
secretaries with him, Mr.. IL. J. Greedy,
who was Lord K~itchener's secretary,
being retained also j. T. Davies, who
has served Mr.. Lloyd-George in n very
confidential post for some time; Miss
f. l.. StepheI, son, who is probably the
first woman t. occupy such a post with
a responsible statesman, and Mr.. w.
Sutherland, who is underpaid. Lloyd
George, by the way, has made more
than m find among his private sec
retaries, and, ever in face of comment,
he has not hesitated to secure their
promotion to responsible posts. There
is, for instance, Sir w. III. Clark, a
former board Of trade clerk, who was
the present var secretary's "ghost" at
the board Of trade and the exchequer,
who became q member of the council
of India, and who, at the age of forty,
Is a knight, busily engaged in organic
ing the capture of German trade. An
other Of Mr.. Ll0yd-George's former
private secretaries is Mr.. John Row
land, a brilliant Welshman, who has
done good work as Welsh insurance
commissioner.
