THE BEST SELLER
Is Old Black Joe Cough Syrup

Wherever introduced, Old Black Joe
Cough Syrup soon becomes the best
selling remedy for coughs, colds,
bronchitis and irritated threats. The
reason is plain-it is absolutely safe
for children as we'll as for grown folks
and it does the work quickly and
surely. There is not single drop OF
opiates, chloroform or narcotic drugs
in it. II loosens the phlegm. opens
the air passages. Soothes irritation
and kills the cold germs. A big pot
rIo COSTS only CSC at an" store in city

that should war cnsue the damage done
to America would not be smaller than
that inflicted b. America upon Ger

ECONOMICAL RECIPES.

Dear Cornerites: The worlds war has brought all nations to the verge of famine. and even this great nation of wealth and plenty is not sure of having enough to eat in the near flu ture.
 The housewife is being counselled to practice prudence and economy as never before and to make the most of stale bread and 1eft-overs.
 In the matter of bread it should be remembered rolls or biscuits which have a greater surface in proportion to their size, dry out more rapidly than loaves of bread. It IS good planning, therefore, not to provide more than will be used at a meal or at least a day after baking. For similar reasons bread stays fresh longer in the loaf than after it is sliced. No more than will be needed should be cut for any one meal, and one loaf should be used up before the next is cut into. When the bread needs freshenfng it is a good plan to cut the required slices and put them into the oven for a few minutes just before serving.
 From stale bread crumbs you may thicken soups and graviee, or make pancakes, Indian buildings or ginger bread. Dry staie bread should never be thrown away

WAYS TO SERVE SPINACH.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: One of the most wholesome spring dishes is made up of spinach and cold sliced bacon. Spinach may be served as follows: Boil in sa1ted water just sufficien to cover for 15 minutes. Turn out, drain well and chop fine. Place in sauce pan One-half ounce butter, one half tablespoon four, two tablespoons of cream or milk and a salt spoon of su- gar. When this comes to a boil mix the spinach gradually and boil ten minutes. Serve on toasted bread. The German way is to omit the sugar.
 Spinach with Eggs: Wash four quarts of spinach, drain, cook in boil ing water 20 minutes, removing the scum. When done take up and drain well. Chop fine and treat as in re- cipe above, leaving out sugar and milk, and stew five minutes. Place in serving dish and cover with two or three hard boiled eggs sliced.
