FAMILY MEAT BILL
AN IMPORTANT ITEM
Great Care Should Be Used

pensive Meat Is Exceed

Green bone may he good as n fer
tilizer, or as chicken grit when ground.
but when weighed in the balance with
the household meat bill it is often
found wanting. Meat is one of the
more expensive items in the food bill
of the ordinary family, and for this
reason it is important that it be bought
and used to the best possible advan-
tage.
'lIousewives of MisSoula are too
prone to leave the selection of their

sight unseen" said a Missoula wom-
an yesterday Where meat has been
| purchased by telephone or orders to a
| butchers boy, personal shopping and
| careful selection may make saving
possible. Still another possibility for
| economizing is to purchase cheaper
cuts and to compensate for any tough
ness and less desirable flavor by pre-
pairing them more carefully for the
| table. Finally economy often may be
achieved by utilizing the meat more
completely, including the trimmings

remaining the same. a housewife is
losing little if any, nutriment n pur-
| chasing the cheaper. and often tougher,
| cuts of meat instead Of the choicer
cuts. She is sacrificing only texture
| or flavor or ease of preparation for the
sake of cheapness. For instance, a
degree Of tenderness may be impaired
to the cheaper stakes by the we'll
| known method of pounding the meat
The juices and flavors of such meats
may be more satisfactorily preserved
if flour is sprinkled over them and
worked into the fibrcs, Tough meat
may be ground and formed into balls
to be broiled like steak or baked in
loavcs. Scraps of fat may be tried out
in double boiler. while trimmings OF
lean meat. gristle or bone may be
boiled slowly and used as stock soup
Leftover portions of cooked meats
may be used, like small pieces of UNI
cooked meat, with vegetables and
other foods in the preparation o.
casserole dishes, in making stews
hashes and Croqucttcs. Cold slicct
meat may be served with hot gray,
made from soup stock, milk. meat ia,
and flour or other ingredients.

Every help that will tend to aid
the expectant mother and foster the
wsll-being of the tiny infant should
be promptly rendered.
The time before childbirth is ono
Of much discomfort. This is caused
in a large measure by the tightening
and straining of the abdominal It's
sues, as we'll as the network Of cords,
ligaments and muscles in that part
Of the body.
For many years thousands Of
women have successfully used the
preparation known as Mothers
Friend" It is safe and dependable
to be used by every prospective
mother. A famous physician formu-
lated the preparation. Mothers
Friend" is for external use, and is
composed of special oils and other in
gradients which have a penetrating
and softening effect. Relief from
much of the pain at the crisis is
found.
Any woman awaiting childbirth
should secure a bottle of "Mother's
Friend" from her druggist, when the
abdomen first begins u expand. No
time should be lost in beginning its
use. Apply it night and morning
without fail. Address Bradfield Regu-

Paris, January 19.-The arrival In
Europe this spring OF aH large Japan

the troops of England aud France is
forecast here as the probably answer
|of Japan to Germany.s lon distance
submarine campaign
Heretofore all suggestions of in-
viting Japan To supply WI army to
fight Germany on European soil nave
been rejected By France and England
because neither country has thought
her intervention necessary to victory
and because IL any case II would
have to be paid for bT them at the
sacrifice OF some or their Asiatic
possessions
It H. now predicted in well inform
ed Paris circles, however, that the
Mikado will voluntarily offer an
army to punish GermMny for the
sinking of Japanese merchant ships.
In Allied circles At is expected that
BY the spring Germany will be able
to- establish secret bases some

with South American states and even
to harry shipping in Chinese waters.

SMALL GIRL IN SEWER,
WHIRLING TOWARD RIVER.
Rescued by Boy Who Braves Swift
w Current and Darkness Far
Under Street.

Ellen Hassett, q years old, was
whirling thru the big sewer under
West Forty-seventh street, New York
and was within block Of the fHud-
son River when she was rescued by
the exceptionally brave work OF Frank
Knight, 17-year-Old office boy.
Ellen III the eldest w four children
of Mrs Margaret Hassett, a widow
The child was playing with compan-
ions ln front of her home when she
started across the street
Her playmates heard her scream
and saw tine little girl suddenly dis
appear into a sewer manhole, tbs
cover of which probably dropped in-
to- the sewer after being broken bs

Ito the opening and looked down, but
all was dark They could hear arusf

At that moment Frank knight, the
Eoffice boy, came into the circle and
without hesitating he started down
into the black hole on the iron rungf
Jet into the masonarys When he was
down eight feet ha cAKfAH tO Louis
Ahnett, a friend who remained ABOVE
To yet "a lamp Or lantern, as III could
not see anything.
Just then the lad lost his hold and
dropped down into the sewer, but hf
was able to keep on his feet despite
the current. Far away to the west
he heard the faint cries of the miss
ing girl and, giving no furtherheed tc
the darkness, he called to her:
I'm coming; hold on Tight"

feet under the street, knight slid
managing to keep upright In the hole
which iS five feet i'm diameter, getting
closer and closer 1T the time to the
child's cries. Finally he came up to
her and seized her dress Then came
struggle to get back to the manhoie
He was engaged in that task, holding
Ellen above the stream all the time
when John McGoyern, started down
the manhole, fearing that both thf
boy and the girl had been swept tc
the sewer.
McGovern kept calling down in tbs
darkness to the boy and when Knight
was half way back h heard and re-
piled:
We're all right; n got her"
When Frank knight had reached
the manhole be handed the child up
to- McGovern, who had descended part
way on the rungs, and McGovern
lifted her up To Miss Elizabeth Trea-
nor, who was leaning down into the
hole from the pavement. Her head
was severely cut where she had fallen
and she was very weak.
- Knight reached the street level
he did not seem to- think h. had done
anything unusual, but he said he was
frightened when ne fell into the
stream and believed he was alone in
the sewer
How far had H. gone through the
sewer To get the child Knight did not
know. He believed 1t was ait least
forty or fifty feet.
