What He Feared.

During some building operations it
was necessary for the workmen to
walk across single plank some dis
lance from the ground.
When it came Pats turn the fore
man noticed that he went across on
all tours. So he went up to Pat and
asked contemptuoysly;
whats the trouble, man? Are you
afraid of walking on the plank?"

According to the mechanical principle
involved in their construction or oper-
alton, they may be divided into several
classes, as follows:
l. Water hoists, /. e., contrivances
which raise water by means of buckets
fastened to belts, wheels or levers.
The old-fashioned cistern pump" be-
longs to this class. Another form is

John Daniel Walters says no
feature of home architecture oiu
afford so much comfort and be
so conducfve to health as abund.
ant supply of pure quater'

tom contains sediment that has washed
from the roof, and cannot, or should
not, be used. This leaves about 800
cubic feet or ST. barrels, for actual use.
If we assume that the cistern is COM
pletely enptied three times year, it
gives daily consumption of just 3
cubic feet, or 221a gallons, FER family
of five members. Some families I'M
doubtedly use twice as much or sew
eral times as much soft water as the
quantity stated, and more would be
used in many homes if the supply was
more adequate and easier to obtain.
The water reports of large cities
show much greater consumption fig
ures, because enormous quantities OF
water are being used in factories and
packing houses and for street sprink-
ling and building purposes. The farm
er should not of course be misled by
these city statistics. When calculat-
ing the consumption of water in the
average farm home the following con-
sentative table is generally used:
To fill a bathtub requires from 8 to
20 gallons.
To flush a closet, each time. from 3
to gallons.
To fill lavatory, from to ~ gal
Ions.
For sprinkling lawn, per 100 square
feet, from to gallons.
For soaking lawn, per 100 square
feet, from 10 to 90 gallons.
The consumption of water by farm
animals depends upon the season, the
feed, the age. and the individual hab-

Cheapest Dish in the World.

Corn is a great food-a plain and
simple food. But corn-at least the
solid variety-is not taken straight.
Moreover the addition of water does
not mend matters The flavor of corn
alone is too faint and elusive for our
buttered and peppered taste-buds to
detect its rare aroma.
One ounce Of shredded Goldfish Is
sufficient to impaPt distinct flavor to
a quart of cornmeal mush. The add
ton of an ounce 1.-TWO tablespoonfuls)
of oil will increase the palatability
and add greatly to the nutritive value
of the recipe. This dish may be
cooked as mush and then eaten with
butter, or fried, or baked. 1t may be
served alone or with dressing.
Here is = table of the ingredients
with their nutritive value for enough
"cOrned Goldfish" to serve four healthy
appetites:
