CONTROL YOUR OWN KITCHEN
Ringing Message Addressed to the
Women of American by One of
Their Best-Known Writers.

Margaret Deland, the well-known
writer, says in the Woman's Home
Companion:
"This is a brave world just now,
and it shames us TO admit, even to
ourselves, how we hate to face some
domestic guns; we hate to ask about
leftover dropped eggs; and still more
good sense of mothers and grand
mothers, and do our own ordering |!
There is, however, one thing that
would help. us poor housekeepers
immensely, namely, a community ef-
fort If groups Of wOmen-the wom-
ems clubs, the women of a parish, the
women of street-would get together,
and pledge each other their moral sup
port, the domestic situation would be
immensely helped; we would cease to
be bullied by our kitchens. Once let
Mary realize that not only Mrs. A. is
mean and Mrs. r. 'snoops around in
the REFRIGERATOR and Mrs. G. gives
We a calldown about yer potato par
ingS,' but that the whole alphabet Of
housekeepers will not permit waste.
Mary, too, and all her kind, will tiD'
ally fall into line!
"You know the fable Of the old man
and his sons and the sticks? The
single stick was easily broken. The
single housekeeper is easily cowed.
The fagot is unbreakable! If we wom-
en-, all together, insist upon a moral,
social, economical course, our kitchens
will Join U.S."

Protect the Birds.

Saving the song birds of France Is
the object of a plan proposed by M.

grape growers of the GirOnde in 1910
of 100000 of francs, as well as a
decrease in the oil production of south

growers threatened to abandon the in-
dustry. He suggests that gold1nches.

HEART EVER KINDLY
John GaIsWorthy Describes the
PoiIu at His Best.
Glad of Opportunity to Divide Rations
and Make Friends With Four
footed Creature That Had Evil
IDENTIFY Known Suffering.

The sun, boring into his spine
through his thin shirt, made him reach
for his jacket. There was the little
dog still sitting on its base, 20 yards
away. 1t covered and dropped its
ears when he moved, and he thought:
"Poor beast! Some one has been do
ing the devils work on you, not badly !"
There were some biscuit in the
pocket of his jacket, and he held ONE
ont. The dog shivered and its pink
tongue lolled painting with desire and
fear. Jean Liotard tossed the biscuit
gently about half way. The dog cow
cred back a step or two, crept forward
three, and again squatted. Then very
gradually it crept up to the biscuit,
bolted it, and regained its distance.
The soldier took out another. This
time he threw 1t five PAGES only In
front of him. Again the little beast
covered, skunk forward, seized the bis
cult, devoured it; but this time it only
recoiled pace or two, and seemed,
with painting mouth and faint wagging
of the tail, to beg for more. Jean
Liotard held third biscuit as far In
front of him as he could, and waited.
The creature crept forward and
squatted just out Of reach. There 1t
sat, with saliva dropping from its
mouth seemingly it could not make up
It's mind to that awful venture. The
soldier sat motionless; his outstretched
hand. began to tire. but ne did not
budge-he meant to conquer its fear.
At last it snatched the biscuit. Jean
Liotard instantly held out fourth.
That, too, was snatched, but at the
fifth he was able to touch the dog. 1t
covered almost into the ground at the
touch of his fingers, and then lay. still
trembling violently, while the soldier
continued to stroke its head and ears.
And suddenly his heart gave twitter;
the creature had licked his hand. He
took out his last biscuit, broke 1t up
and fed the dog slowly with the bits.

Few Senators Present to
Hear the Opening Prayer

Some time ago, when the archbishop
of York, primate of England, was in
Washington he prayed at the opening
of a session of the senate. Most of
the senators were present. They all
listened devoutly and attentively and
when the archbishop wound up with
the Lords prayer they joined in with
him. There is nothing very eXtraor-
binary or striking about this incident
until 1t is considered in connection
with the attendance of the senator's
on ordinary occasions when prayer is
offered in the senate chamber. Often
there are only a handful of senators
and few youthful pages present. On
one occasion only one senator and q
few pages were on hand when the
opening invocation was delivered

Bread From Cotton Seed;

The cotton plant, upon which the

by makers of high grade soap, now
appears upon the table in the form Of
palatable salad dressing and also as

Gently the seed has been made to yield
a flour from which bread pleasing to
the taste and as nourishing as lean
beefsteak is baked. A bakery in a
Southern city is selling 400 loaves of
it a week.
The annual value of cotton seed
products is placed at S250,0OO,0OO, 2ne-
half the output being used for food.
Farmers are now receiving $40 to $50
a ton for the seed, as compared to
Sc or 81 a quarter Of century ago.
The yearly crop is about 5,OOO,OU
tons, a great asset to the consumer
at this time of extreme high prices

Children Understood Nature.

A few years ago, Switzerland fol-

that nature study should be a regular
study in the school program, and that
teachers should be trained according
ly. 1t was soon discovered that the
pupils knew more than the trained
teachers, for the teachers information
was too often based on books alone.
while the children knew nature from
actual contact with her in all her
hoods.

pounds when taken prisoner, saying it
was all he had. "When his captor
asked, 'On your honor? Spindler re-
piled, No, no more.'" A search re-

in his clothing. The attorney general
asked him: do you think in the cir
