JAPS PUT HEADS
THROUGH CLASS
PANES AT FIRST

That observation car would have
done credit to any railroad in the
world. A Japanese fellow-passenger
an official in the japanese Ministry
of Communications, was amused at
our expressions of delight.
"Of course this is all very recent"
he explained. give years ago we
had nothing like this. Forty-five
years ago there was not = single car
nor a single mile Of track IN the whole
Of Japan Why" he laughed, II can
remember the first jerky little trains
that were run on the first line to be
opened-the one between Toxic and
Yokohoma. Glass was a new thing
to the Japanese, and there We're a
great many windows broken and heads
bumped during those first few weeks.
Passengers persisted in trying to put
out their heads without first raising
the windows. Finally the glass
smashing became so expensive, and
there were so many complaints over
bruised and cut heads, that the COM
pany was forced to paint white bar
on every window to teach passengers
the nature of glass"
Which story we could appreciate,
for we had already noticed in the
corner Of railroad yard little old
car with white bars painted across the
windows. Some of these cars. our
companions told us, are still used as
third-class conveyances on newly
opened branch lines-for there arA
still parts of japan where the people
do not quite understand glass.

told of how sweethearts anad wives
have been warned by dreams and tel
epathy Of impending danger to loved
vivid stories on record is related by a

Almost as soon as she fell asleep
one night she dreamed that she saw
her fiance in the trenches preparing

with many others climb out of the
British trenches, cross No Mans Land
and enter the enemy's lines. Her

ment and then quite plainly she saw

carried him back to the British line
The young lady awoke feeling very
alarmed, and the next day wrote to
her fiance for news
A few days afterward she received

HOW TO SELECT
FOODS TO OBTAIN
The MOST VALUE

The health and appearance of the
Isomeness of their diet, according to
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
Farmers Bulletin sos, on how to Sc
lect foods II they are strong, well
developed for their ages. free from all
ments, and full of energy and ambi-
ton. one may safely say their food
agrees with them. But If they are
listless and ailing, or not as well de-
veloped either physically or mentally
as they should be, and if competent
physician finds that there Is no spe-
cial disease to account for these bad
symptoms, a mother may well ask
herself If the food is right, and If not.
how she can make it so. If a little
too much or too little of one nutri-
.ment is provided at a single meal or
on a single day., healthy body does
not suffer, because it has ways of
storing such surplus and of using
its stored material in an emergency.
The danger would come if the diet
taken week in and week out always
provided too much or too little of
some one nutriment.
Habit and custom help greatly, be-
cause they usually are based on what
the experience of generations has
proved is wise and healthful though,
Of course, there are bad habits and
outgrown customs in food as in every
thing else Good food habits, it must
be remembered, include more than
cleanliness and order in everything
that has to do with FOOD and meals,
and leisurely ways of eating. Equal
ly important are a liking for all kinds
of wholesome foods, even if they
have not always been used in ones
home or neighborhood, and eating
reasonable amounts, without being
either greedy or overdainty. Every
effort should be made to train chill
dren in such good food habits. II
older people have not learned them.
they. too, should try to do SO. for
such things are very important not
only to health but also to economy.
To refuse to eat some wholesome
dish simply because one is not accus-
toned to it may prevent the use of
some very desirable and economical
food To feel that there is any yir-
ture in providing more food than is
needed shows poor taste as we'll as
poor economy.

BACHELOR CUPID
CAUGHT STRANGELY

F. D. writes: 81 am a hard, stoical
bachelor of 48, a large mill owner Why
have not married is because I did
not fine out to- suit till now. Manlmas
and daughters fattered, widows an

Rejected SWANS
Have Become Very
Famous Statesmen

Young man, when a sweet damsel
has thrown you over for some no-ac-
count whippersnapper and life looks
dull and bleak, just bear these facts
in mind: NJ -
James A. Garfield was Tilted by a
girl whose family wanted her to mar
ry man with better prospects.
Abraham Lincoln was numerically
snubbed by a girl whom he courted
and who married a man whose very
name is now forgotten.
George Washington is credited with
no less than three fittings.
Napoleon III, Emperor of France
was rejected by about half the Prin-
cesses in Europe.
Mighty Miles Standish was refused
by Pricilla for meek John Alden.
Charles Dickens as a young man
adored Maria Beadnell. She amused
herself with the young novelist and at
last dropped him to marry man
named Winter Winter lost his
money and Maria wrote asking Die
kens to help them out; Dickens didn't
Byron was rejected by a girl to
whom he POLITICALLY offered his love
Bismarck was engaged to Miss
Russell, a yellow-haired English girl
whom he met at a German spa. But
she was Of noble blood, and her fam
lily looked down on the big, young
Prussian soldier and he lost his suit
John Ruskin loved a French girl
Mile de la Touche. He courted her
long and devotedly, but she would
have none of him.
So despair not, loving youth. The
jilt may be the beginning of riches
honor, glory; don't permit it to be the
beginning Of the end. If all you love
or ever hope to love, hand you the
frosty nit" it might be worse, for
High hopes faint on warm
hearthstone;
He travels the fastest who travels
alone.

WHAT THE AVERAGE
GIRL DOES NOT KNOW

Experience joined with common sense
To moutals is a providence"
In how many households do young
wives know how to combat the high
cost off living, yet keep the family
nurtured properly? In every large
city, town and village it is said that
girls leave the public schools around
the age Of fourteen and fifteen. The
great majority must earn their own
living. Immediately they go into
stores, shops or factories. In very
few years they marry and start
housekeeping with little or no knowl-
edge Of how to buy food in sma il
quantiay, how to care for it, or how to
prepare it.
Such young woman have no knowl-
edge of the value of certain foods
from the nutrinent standpoint. The
result is a great waste in every d1rec-
ton.
II a girl has not been brought up to
cook, for the sake of the man she is
to marry she should take course of
study in it before he is called upon to
pay the bills for her ruthless waste.
The recipes in some cook books are
often extravagant, intended for a
large number of persons. More can
be learned from an old-fashioned
housewife who has had to count her
pennies to exc out sufficient to set on
her table Her motherly heart warns
to the girl about to marry knowing
nothing of the cost Of housekeeping.
A young husband might eat sugar
kisses and drink poor coffee for break
fast declaring them delicious when his
brides hands prepared them. But a
severe case of indigestion would re-
suit. Every human being needs GER
tain nourishing foods that will build
up the system and keep UP strength.
A diet Of bakers rolls only will not
make up for the hearty satisfaction
| that used to tend the thick slices of
toasted whole wheat bread such as
mother used to make, soft poacfed
eggs done to a turn, good strong cof
fee tempered with rich hot milk half
and half and generous addition Of a
dash of good thick cream. This to-
gether with saucer Of breakfast food
similarly tpeatad is a breakfast fit for
a king
| A man may have costlier breakfasts
but he could not enjoy them more.
For his luncheons when he is out of
her sight a woman cannot be account
able. If he has sweet tooth and in
dulges in pie pickles and pastries dis
grunting the inner man, she is not to
blame. A good hot supper will coun-
terbalance his indiscretion.
The old-fashioned housewife tells a
bride she should have changes in food.
always with an eye to their nutritive
value. She should try to do her own
marketing. never forgetting that a
penny saved is penny earned" All
Of these things is what every girl
should know about

GRANDMOTHER'S
BOTANIC MEDICINE

In every pioneer home the botanic
recipes of our grandmothers for the
treatment of disease were wonder
fully dependable. Every fall she
gathered her various herbs: thorough
wort, camomile, sage, pennyrcyal,
NORWOOD, rue, etc. 1t Is interesting
to note that Lydia r. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. the most sue
cessful remedy for female ills we have,
was originally prepared for home use
from one of these botanic recipes. and
the demand for this famous medicine
has grown until over $4,000 pounds
of roots and herbs are used annually
in its preparation. It will we'll repay

WHERE THE WAFFLE

WHERE THE WAFFLE
BLOOM WAVES
There's land that is happy and fair,
Set gem-like halcyon seas;
Where the wattle-bloom perfumes
the breeze,
And the bell-bird builds her nest
When the oak and the elm are bare,
And wild winds vex the shudder-
ing trees;
There the climatis whitens the air,
And the the husbandman laughs as
he sees
The grass ripping green to his
knees,
And his vineyards in emerald drest--
Where the wattle-bloom bends in
the breeze,
And the bell-bird builds her nest.
What land is with this to compare?
Not the green hills of Hybia, with
bese,
Honey-sweet, are more radiant and
rare
In color and fragrance than these
Boon shores, where the storm
clouds cease,
And the wind and the waves are at
rest
Where the wattle-bloom waves in
the breeze, ~
And the bell-bird builds her nest.
