Waste In the Home,

The American Magazine prints
an interview with an authority on
the food question, and this man
says:
"Cut down waste. We are throw
ing into our garbage pals enough
fcodstuffs to keep countless people
from starvation. Do you know that
it would sake 100000 acres of wheat
land to make up the loss sustained
if only one slice of stale bread day
we're thrown away in every Ameri-
can household?
"The cities are the centers of ex-
travagance. You who live there
have got to lead the way; otherwise
it is no use to preach food thrift to
the millions of rural folk who are
comparatively thrifty as it is.

PICTURESQUE STOCKHOLM.
Sweden's Capital, Where All Its Kings
and Heroes Find q Tomb.

Although it is frequently styled
'thc Venice of the north" owing to
the fact that it is built upon num-
Der Of islands and peninsulas, Stock
holm, the picturesque capital of
Sweden, bears small resemblance to
the queen of the Adriatic, for,
whereas the Italian city is built upon
a number of delta, former fragments
of land only few feet above sea
level, the islets and promontories
on which Stockholm stands arc rug
ged granite rocks which must be
blasted away whenever a new build
ing is erected.
There are many magnificent pub
lie buildings in Stockholm, chief
among which are the royal palace,
with its 500 apartments; the splen-
did riksdagshus parliament house,.
which cost more than $2,500,000;
the royal library, where one copy of
every book published in Sweden
must be filed and which boasts of
one of the greatest collections of
pamphlets and manuscripts in Eu-
rope, and the Offices from which the
Nobel fund is distributed. The roy
al collection Of weapons is the finest
in the world.
The Oldest church in Stockholm
is the Storkyrka Great churcb),
which is supposed to have been
founded by Birger JarI in 1864, but
which was rebuilt about two cen
turtles ago. The most interesting
sacred structure, however, is the
Riddarholms-kyrka, with its open
work cast iron spire rising to q
height of nearly 800 feet. This is
Stockholm's Westminster abbey or
Pantheon, for in it are buried the
kings and heroes of the nation.
Here rest the great warrior Gus
tavus Adolphus and the able and
enlightened Gustavus III, who
abolished torture, granted liberty
