WORRY

If you realized just what Worry is

into the habit of using them the more
you come to know what He'll is really
like. Here's an antidote for Worry
Smile, Smile, Smile-Smile!
For where Smiles are, Worry is not.
Worry is just plain poison. 1t is the
most treacherous of poisons, for 1t not
only eats into the finest powers of
your mind and life, but it spreads and
radiates like a contagious disease.

Well, then, get rid of it.

Worry never did and never will
bring anything to pass. 1t never earned

And They Didn't Parade.

In 1885 Dewey was at Malta in COM
mand of the Pensacola. Some Of his
men on shore leave got into a street
brawl. An alarm was sounded, but
the men succeeded in escaping to their
ship. The British captain of the port
was on hand next morning demanding
that the guilty sailors be surrendered
or punished by the American comman-
der. Dewey expressed regret that the
sailors should have been so lawless
ashore, but said he could see no way
in which he could assist his visitor in
picking out the guilty. The reply an
gered the British officer. who said
somewhat peremptorily:
you certainly can parade your crew
before me in order that the rioters
may be identified"
Dewey pointed aloft to the stars and
stripes waving at the masthead.
"The deck of this vessel is United
States territory" he answered sharp
~, and I'll parade my men for no for
eigner that eve drew breath"

milk, cooking the flour in the hot fat,
then adding the milk. Baked potatoes
are especially good with this meat.
Roast pork left-overs finely chopped
and served with chopped celery in
salad makes a fine substitute for
chicken.
Cornmeal pork fritters, with a rich
gravy will make a breakfast dish
which is sufficiently filling for a good
meal. Use cornmeal, n egg, a little
baking powder and sufficient milk to
make a batter thick enough to dip the
slices of ~parboiled and drained salt
pork in, then fry in fat and serve with
a cream gravy.
Pork of any kind, salt or otherwise,
should be cooked long and slowly to
make it digestible.
Fresh pork with carrots, onions and
potatoes baked in a casserole is an
other dish which is well liked. A
small amount of meat will season the
vegetables, thus making a most eco
nomical dish.
Spiced Shoulder of Pork.-Soak the
shoulder in water for several hours
after washing well, being sure that it
is well scraped, removing all the
smoked portions that might impart a
strong flavor. Place in a large kettle
with cold water to cover; bring slowly
to the boiling point, then add pepper
corns, whole cloves and sage, a tea
spoonful of each, with a bay leaf. if
liked, a bit of mace or nutmeg. The
sage may be omitted if the flavor is
not liked. After two hours of gentle
cooking, remove the skin from the
shoulder and put it in a baking pan,
skin side up. Add half a cupful of
vinegar, two tablespoonfuls of sugar,
and a cupful of water; use this to
haste the meat while roasting. Any
leftover portions are delicious, sliced
cold.

Candy and the Drink Habit.

II any one doubts that candy will
cure him of the drink habit he can
easily test it. The man who puts lots
of molasses on his wheat cakes at
breakfast will find himself gradually
forgetting to step in for his customary
drink on his way to his work. If the
man who goes out between times for
liquid refreshments will go into a can
dy store instead and get 5 or 10 cents
worth of candy and eat it he will be
surprised at the effect, for it will not
be very long until be will have a box
of candy in his pocket or desk. 1t has
often been noted that in theaters where
candy is sold during the intermissions
going out to see a man" does not pre-
vail to anything like the extent it does
in other theaters where no candy sell
ing is permitted. Not one mar In q
hundred knows why he forgot to ego
out to see a man" after he had bought
a box of candy for his companion and
eaten a little of it himself for polite
ness sake.-Medical World.
