BUY FISH CAUGHT
NEAR YOUR HOME

A writer Of an article on new kinds
Of sea food says in the November
Woman's Home Companion:
"A simple rule Of the purchase Of
fish NAV be laid down that will fit
almost every consumer wherever she
may live. This rule is TO buy the
fish that is caught in local waters.
This fish is nearly sure to be freshest
and cheapest. II is almost true that
the cheapest fish in the market is the
best. Its cheapness indicates that it
was caught locally, and that it has
not been kept long. The housewife
will argue that she has tried these
cheap fish, and that they are Of poor
quality. The Recommendation is that
she continue to experiment with To-
cal, chean fish until she finds those
that are to her liking. and that she
then stick TO them"

DIR. Frederic Jacobson says. 75%e of
Women Need PhOsphates to Give
Them Strong, Healthy, Rounded
Figure and to avoid Nervous
Breakdown. Thousands of
Women Grow Strong in
Natures Way.
Consider the Lilies of the Field.
How They Grow"
The life Of the lily is but a few
weeks or months. The life of man
is "three score years and ten." But
to live ones life in its fullness, wom-
en- like the lily, must be nourished by
those same vital elements which ma
ture provides for nourishing every
living thing; and these include the
valuable phosphate so often lacking
in the usual food we eat today. Argo-
Phosphate is rich in these wonderful
elements. 1t contains them in con-
centrated tablet form which is easy
TO take and quickly assimulated and
absorbed into the system, and from
you to old age. builds and rebuilds
body and brain in beautiful harmony
with Natures perfect plan. "That's
why" Argo-Phosphate makes good
solid flesh and muscles.
SPECIAL NOTICE: Argo-Phos-
phate contains the Natural phos-
phates which thousands of physicians
are prescribing daily TO build up thin
pale, colorless women to give them
rosy cheeks, red lips, and a beautiful
complexion. Many cases have been
reported whore women have increas-
Cd their weight from Is To 25 hounds

Heart and lunos.

The action OF the heart, lungs and d.

reason that 1t is indispensable to life
and must be carried on under all cir.
cumstances. If man had to think of
his heart or had to remember that he
must breathe or that his food must d.
gest he would have no time to do any
thing else. and IL by chance he should
forget to keep his heart going or his
lungs in operation he would fall dead

EuneraIs In Scotland.


In Scotland the custom still prevails
of taking down the window blinds at a
death and hanging white sheets across
the windows. The custom also prevails
in the north of England, and In many
families a special sheet reserved for
the death chamber is kept for the pur-
pose and often used from generation to
generation. In many parts Of Scotland,
too it is still customary for the nearest
relatives of the deceased to lower the
body into the grave and wait by the
side until the grave is filed up.-Lon-

Labor In Switzerland.

About twenty-five years ago employ
ment agencies were first established in
the leading industrial centers Of Swift
zerland. Municipal interest was soon
shown in these institutions, and by
1900 several of the larger cities. such
as Zurich, Geneva and Berne, operated
municipal employment bureaus. In
March, 1910, these official institutions
were united into a national organiza-
ton, subsidized by the federal govern,
ment, called the Swiss Bureau of EN-
ployment, with head Offices at Zurich.
The undertaking Of supplying the
needy unemployed with work has thus
practically passed into the hands of the
federal government.

Boulevard and EspIanade.

Both "esplanade" and ''boulevard"
are military terms by origin. The orig
inal boulevard" was a bulwark or
horizontal part of the rampant. and an
"esplanade" was originally the ghcis
or slope of the counterscarp of forti-
fed place. A writer 200 years ago
noted that the word boulevard was
now chiefly taken for the void space
between the glacis of citadel and the
first houses of town." hence its ex-
tension to other "void spaces" suitab BILE
for promenading. The old French "es-
planade" was defined by Cotgrave as
"a planning, leveling, evening of ways"
from Latin "explanare," to smooth or
fatten out, whence the English words
explain" and "explanation."
Animal Strength.
Tests made to determine the respec-

weighing 1000 pounds each, together
pulled $3.50 pounds, or $50 pounds more
than their combined weight. One ele-
plant, weighing 10000 pounds, pulled
$3.50 pounds, or $3.50 pounds less than
its weight. Fifty men, aggregating
1900 pounds in weight, pulled $3.50
pounds, or just as much as the single

ed more than their own weight; 100
men pulled 1900 pounds.
