SHE HAD MAYNARD DAUGHTER
Neighbor Was Surprised When She
Found Cause Of Severe Rebuke
Administered by Mother.

A lady living in large apartment
house relates the following:
81 had occasion one day to visit the
apartment of neighbor. Such grave
and earnest tones of remonstrance
reached my ears, as / approached my
friends room, that I hesitated about
intruding. / found her winsome young
daughter with her, and the mother had
evidently been rebuking her, for the
girls face was flushed and there were
tears in her eyes.
Come in," said my friend. 81 have
finished what l was saying to Jenny
and / hope she will remember my
wishes"
"Ah. these children - these chill
dren - thought / to myself.
81 have just been telling her." con-
tinued my friend, that she must not
wear her evening gloves when she goes
shopping in the morning. In the first
place. it is not genteel; and in the
second place, it is extravagant."
Her evening gloves! And yet, as
sure you, her tone and expression, and
the impression made on the child,
would have befitted a serious wrong
doing-one that had issues in time
and eternity.

siberia,s Resources UnrivaIed.

Siberia is believed to be destined
one day to become the richest country
in the world, for it has natural
wealth so diversified and as yet almost
untouched, that it has no rival in
the old world. Before the war ST.
IBERIA was producing from 100000 to
100000 tons of flour year. AS a
grazing country it has no limits, and
it exports large quantities of leather
tallow and butter. Its forests are al
most inexhaustible, and ii supplies
furs to all the world. Its mineral
wealth can only be guessed at, for
the greater part of the country has
never been prospected. But there are
several enormous deposits of oil.

Lioht a Fire Without Matches.

How to light fire without matches
is an important part of the training
given to United States Marines at
Port Royal, S. G. The primitive flint
and steel, used long ago by our fore
fathers, and the old "wooden fric-
ton" method borrowed from the In
dians have been revived, so that the
sea soldiers may dispense with
matches when dampness renders them
useless.
United States Marines in the tropics
can start a fire almost instantly by
using a hollow piece of bamboo. This
is done by Sitting the bamboo, stuff
ing il with dry moss, and drawing a
stick to and fro across it as violinist
uses his bow. These resourceful
worldwide soldiers are expected to
find a substitute for the useful bam-
boo in France.
The Colorado statesman., 1917-08-25

1Or them.
A good combination to can Tor win
ter which is especially recommended
for the child is Swiss chard, or spin
ach, few carrots, onions and stalk
or two of celery all blanched and
packed into a can, then cooked under
water at the boiling point for two
hours. This mixture may be used as
flavor for soup broth or with milk aft
er pressing the pulp through a sieve
so that the vegetables are finely d.
vided. This soup mixture has high
mineral content and is recommended
by dieticians as good beginning to
encourage the liking for vegetables in
small people.
In all soup making, it should be re-
membered that vegetables are neces-
sary to keep the bodily health up to
matters, vegetable acids, and growth
determinants of which we are learning
more each day, without which the body
processes are not carried on properly.
Since soups may be presented in such
variety of flavors, are so generally
relished, and make such palatable COM
binations, using buttered bread as an
accompaniment, they are valuable ad-
ditions to the diet.
Mixed Vegetable Soup.-Take three
quarts of boiling water and add the
following vegetables: One quart of
shredded cabbage, one pint of sliced
potato, a half pint each of diced car
rot, turnip, onion, two tomatoes, two
tablespoonfuls of minced celery, two
tablespoonfuls of chopped green pep
per and two of drippings, boil for ten
minutes, then simmer gently for an
hour, except the tomatoes and pota-
toes. The tomatoes and potatoes should
then be added and all cooked slowly
another hour.

Buy Outright. Is War Plan.

Washington.-Secr of Com
inerce Redfield announced that the
conference representing all interested
departments of this government has
completed its study of war contracts.
Where conditions of manufacture
are particularly involved the confer
ence recommends contract in which
specified sum is awarded as the
profit on each article, instead of max
ing the profit percentage of the cost.
This recommendation will do away
with the tendency to increase costs to
increase profits.
The Colorado statesman., 1917-08-25
Soap.

Soap is excellent as means of get
ting the face clean or correcting coarse
language in the young, but 1t has its
drawbacks. 1t cannot always be de.
pended upon. A cake of soap that has
been in the family long enough to
seem tame and harmless will some
times run amuck in the bathroom and
lead one to the brink of nervous break
down. Starting from given point
cake of soap, If slightly provoked,
will dash about, leaping from place to
place in wild flight till the pursuer
swoons in exhaustion. The cake OF
soap peeks out from safe place un-
der the tub to snicker maliciously. If
YOU recover and have the spirit to re-
sumo the chase you will have gay
time in bagging the soap, even though
YOU have it cornered. The soap Is
clever. 1t will not make a move till
you have seized 1t, and then 1t Will
slip a few inches away. After several
of your grabs the soap will estimate
neatly with a quick eye just the
length of your arm and then 1t Will set
tie down few inches beyond your
reach. In this case your only move
is to get long stick and have the
soap out with a few sweeps. If you
are only human you will probably beat
it to death with any blunt instrument
at hand. And then go and get another
piece of soap.-Illinois State Register.

WAS PRISONER IN A CROCK
Boys Plight Analogous to That of
Many Whose Heads Are Stuck
Fast In Worries.

An earthenware crock which boy,
playing policeman, had put on his
head as "A helmet, slipped down and
stuck fast. The boy made a rec
ord resignation from the police force,
and his mufiled howls attracted
prompt attention.
His alarmed mother tugged at the
crock until the boys face was sorely
bruised; then excited neighbors took
turns until his neck was pain
fully twisted.
Meanwhile the bowling boy was suf-
fering terrifying visions of lifelong i'm
prisonment, as secure as in dungeon,
and of his head from year to year
growing larger and tighter in the
crock. The poor boys trouble shut
him in from all the rest of the world
with an ingrowing imagination. But
that is only what anyone's trouble of
any sort is apt to do for one, OBJ
serves the Christian Herald.
The mother, the father, who had
been sent for, and a half hundred
neighbors, who had invited themselves
under the delusion that curiosity Is
sympathy, finally settled down to SOL
emn conclave and decided that, since
the crock had slipped on it must be
possible for it to be slipped off again,
but that only a skillful surgeon could
perform the delicate operation.
A delegation was on its way with
the boy to a surgeons office, when
resourceful motorman, seeing the stu
alton, smashed the crock with his con-
troller handle.
Thus, by the simplest of processes,
the boys trouble was suddenly ended.
And it is by equally simple and di-
rect processes that most of the trou-
bles of most of us may be ended.
With our heads stuck fast in wor-
ries, we rack our brains over thou
sand roundabout ways of slipping
them off-and the harder we tug at
them the more they hurt-but we
overlook the simple expedient of
smashing the crock.
Like the lad, we see terrifying vi
sions of the future; we suffer our
feelings to be cruelty lacerated and
our bodies to be twisted and torn in
mental anguish and despair; we run
here and there for sympathy and ad-
vice and help; and it does not occur
to us how easy it is just to break the
crock.
Most of the crooks that seem to slip
down over our heads are merely imag-
mary, anyway. They require no street
car controller handles to smash them.
All they call for is mental con-
troller handle.
Did it ever occur to you that most
of our troubles come, as this LADS
did, through trying to appear what
we aren't?

Sliced oranges served on lettuce
with French dressing make salad
which is not common but is most ap-
petizing. Serve with French dressing
as an accompaniment to cold sliced
meat for a Sunday night supper.
JeIIied veal.-Wipe a knuckle OF
veal with damp cloth, cut the meat
in pieces and simmer gently for two
hours in water. Peel and slice TWO
onions, add them together with bay

four cloves, cook an hour longer. Take
out the meat, remove the bones. Cook
the liquor until it is reduced to one
quart, add half cupful of vinegar,
salt and pepper, and strain over the
meat. Serve garnished with parsley
and lemon slices.
Cream SIaw.-This recipe may be
divided for a small family as the guam
tity is too large for the everyday group.
Chop a gallon of cabbage very hne ana
sprinkle with n tablespoonful OF salt
a tablespoonful each of mustard ana
pepper. Put a pint of vinegar in a
saucepan and when boiling stir in two
eggs beaten and mixed with tea
spoon of -four and pint of sour

pour boiling hot over the cabbage.

sugar, n half cupful of salt, four
ounces of white mustard seed, tea
spoonful of powdered mace, tea
spoonful each of black pepper and

that there is no leak.
Ripe Grape Pie.-Mix cupful of
seeded grapes with cupful of sugar,
then add tablespoonful of flour and

dish. Melt a half cupful of sweet ba-
con fat, add chopped onion, two cup
fuls of water, and cook until the onion
is tender. Add two beaten eggs, salt
and pepper to taste; cook until smooth
and thick. Pour over the potatoes,
cover in the oven for ten minutes.
Serve hot.
Victoria Green Peppers.-Soak n
cupful of split green peas in luke warm
water for two hours, then drain. Re-
move the seeds and white veins from
four green peppers, cut in strips, then

peas, seasoning of salt, pepper, tea
spoonful of sugar, half can of to-
