Fruit Between Meals

Is It harmful to eat moderately Of ripe fruit
between meals Ii. Is. II.
It is most certainly unwse to annoy the
stomach with continual eating of fruit or of
any other substances but if anything is to
be taken betweea meals, ripe fruit is of
an substances the most permissible. because
it requires virtually no gastric work. A
ripe apple, for example, contains nothing
which requires gastric digestion. The
amount of protein is so small as to be viz
tually negligible. The carbohydrates are
already converted into sugar ready for inn
mediate absorption There is no fat present.
Well-ripened fruit has been not only cooked
in the sun, but dgested as well. These
remarks do not apply to such fruits as
dried dates, figs or bananas, hut only to
fresh, juicy fruits An orange or an apple
taken at bedtime or before breakfast in
the morning is sometimes beneficial in cases
of chronic constipation,
Teething Babies and Stomach Troubles
Why do teething babies usually have stomach
troubles? MRS, I. f.
Teething is "A normal process and it is
not necessary for the stomach and bowels
TO be out of order Such troubles are
usually the result Of giving the child i'm
proper food or food not properly prepared
or some other error in the care of the child.
Neurasthenia
Does prolapse of the stomach and bowels pro-
duce neurasthenia? NJ. T. MARSHALL.
Weakness of the trunk muscles results In
a saggng OF the abdominal wall and pro-
lapse of the organs. This may possibly
cause gastric or pelvic neurasthenia, but
such cases must be very rare. Neurasthenia
IS usually due to intestinal toXemia re-
sulting from constipation and the absorp-
ton Of poisons from the intestine

WHAT YOu CAN DO TO
HELP YOUR COUNTRY

Orr prsblsm is to feed our Allies
this winter by sending them as much
food ~ we can Of tho most concen-
tratsd nutritive value in the least
shipping space. These foods are
wheat, beef, pork, dairy products, and
sugar.
0ur selutisa is to eat less Of these
and more of other foods Of which we
have an abundance, and to waste less
Of all foods.
0rsads cad Csrssls.-Have at least
ono wheatless meal a day. Use corn,
oats. rye, barley, or mixed cereal rolls,
mullins, and breads in place of white
bread certainly for one meal and, if
possible, for two. Eat less cake and
pastry. q
As to white bread, if you buy from
. baker, order it day in advance;
than he will not bake beyond his
needs. Cut the loaf on the table and
only as required. Use stale bread for
toast and cooking.
msat.-Use more poultry, rabbits,
and especially fish and sea food, in
place Of beef, mutton and pork. Do
not use either beef, mutton, or por

GENERAL SUGGESTIONS

Buy less; cook no more than neces-
-sary; serve smaller portions.
Use local and seasonable supplies.
Patronize your local producers and
lessen the need of transportation.
Preach and practice the gospel II
the clean plate"
We do not ask the American people
to starve themselves. Eat plenty
but wisely, and without waste.
Do not limit the plain food Of
growing children.
Do not cat between meals. e
Watch out for waste in the COM
munity.
You can devise other methods OF
saving to the ends we wish to accom-
-plish. Under various circumstances
and with varying conditions you car
vary the methods Of economizing.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1917-11-01

more than once daily, and then serve
smaller portions. Use all leftover
meat cold or IN made dishes.A Use
soups more freely. Use beans, they
have nearly the same food value N
meat.
Milk.-Use all of the milk, waste
no part of It,. The children must
have whole milk; therefore, use less
cream. There is great waste ot
food by not using all skim and sour
milk. Sour milk can be used in cook
ing and to make cottage cheese. Use
buttermilk and cheese freely.
Fats (ssttsr. lard, ste.).-Dairy
butter has food values vital to chill
dren. Therefore, use it on the table
as usual, especially for children
Use as little As possible In cooking
Reduce the use Of fried foods to re.
duce the consumption Of lard and
other fats. Use vegetable oils, az
olive and cottonseed oil. Save daily
one-third of an ounce Of animal fat
Waste no soap; it contains fat and
the glycerine necessary for explo-
sives. You can make scrubbing SOAP
at home, and, in some localities, you
can sell your saved fats to the soap
maker, who will thus secure our
needed glycerine.
Suaar.-Use less candy and sweet
drinks. Use less sugar In tea and
coffee. Use honey. maple sirup, and
dark sirups for hot cakes and waffies
without butter or sugar. Do not
frost or ice cakes. Do not stint the
use of sugar in putting up fruits and
jams. They may be used in place OF
.butter.

ASK FOR RECRUITS FOR
 THE REGULAR ARMY

Little Rock, June 10-Arkansas has not come up to it's quota in the re- cruiting for the regular army, and the State Council of Defense will as- sist the regular ary authorities in bringing the needs of the government to the attention of the people.
 w. S. Clifford, director of the Ma tional Council, in a telegram to Du- rand Whipple, assistant director of the State Council, says:
 Attention is called to the recruit ing situation of the regular army of the United States. Only 230,000 men have been recruited out of full quota of 300,0O0. There has been very serious falling off in the number of recruits, which, since registration day, has fallen from 2,000 per day to l 400 throughout the entire country. Particular attention is called to the fact that men between the ages of Is and 21 and 31 and 40 inclusive are eligible for enlistment in the regular army as we'll as all men who regis tered for military service. Men en- gagged in professions or trades neces- sary to the prosecution of the war should not be enlisted. It is exceed ingly important that the regular army should be recruited to its full strength with the least possible de- lay"
 The day for the selective draft has not yet been determined upon by the War Department, but is is expected the plans for it's application will soon be worked out and announced. Am pie opportunity is being given in the meantime for all eligibles to enlist in some branch of the service. When the draft is made, it will be equitable and just, each county unit being re- quired to furnish its proportionate quota, and ample and just opportun- ity will be given to prove exemptions. It is believed that there will be no more trouble with the draft than there was with the registration, as the men who are drafted are in all respects as honorable and as brave as the others. They will constitute the National army, and as such are ex- pected to give a good account of themselves at the front.

IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID
 POLL TAX, DO TT NOW
Every Woman in State Should Have Hand in Ratifying Constitution,
 Says Mrs. Fuller.

June 0 is the last day upon which we can pay poll tax. Every voter is obliged to show poll tax receipt of this years payment in order to vote in next years primaries; that is, it will not suffice to pay poll tax next year if you wishs to vote next year; but even more important than quail flying to vote in next years primaries is the effect of poll tax paying on the constitutional convention and on the willing of the delegates to the convention to enfranchise the women for the purpose of ratifying the con- stitution, as we'll as writing into it equal suffrage. Many of these men doubt the possibility of getting an "up-to-date" constitution ratified at the polls. If we can say to them, every woman in the state has shown her appreciation of the ballot by the payment of her poll tax, and there fore can be relied upon to vote in the matter of ratifying the constitution; the delegates will write into it the

PATRIOTIC ORGANIZATIONS
 TENDER THEIR SERVICES

Little Rock, June 1S-The National Council of Defense is in receipt of many patriotic tenders of service from state organizations of all char acters. The council requests that the State Councils be informed of these matters, to avoid duplication and con- fusion, so that there may be more prompt and efficient service. The State Council, which has been thor oughly organized, with Gen. Lloyd England as chairman, is keeping in close touch with these tenders of ser vice, and is acting as a clearing house for the coordination of all patriotic organizations in the state.
