RHIIRARR.

What a splendid tonic rhubarb is. IL
costs practically nothing to plant and
grow it, and each year up 1T comes, ready
for stewing or canning.
The spring and early summer have been
thought the time for the best growing of
rhubarb: but ifyou cut it back persistently,
let no tall stalks blossom or bear seed, and
keep it thinncd out, you can have tender,
fine stalks from now until frost.
The craving for the fresh green acid
quality of ''pie-plant" is natural one
that should be satisfied. Eat plenty OF 1T
raw, cooked, in pies, jelly, with dried
fruit and in tarts. 1t is a fine blood purifier
and spring tonic, and much better tasting
than quinIne or sulphur.
Rhubarb Tapioca is a dessert all the
family will relish. Soak q cup of tapioca
over night, or according to directions on
the carton. Cut eight stalks OF rhubarb IN
cubes. Butter pudding dish, put the
rhubarb in, then n cup of sugar, pInch
of soda, one teaspoon of butter and the
tapioca. Add boiling water to cover, and
more sugar if you like it very sweet; Bake
one hour This is one of the few rhubarb
dishes as good cold rs hot. Serve with
sauce.
Old-fashioned stewcd rhubarb is dish
that holds its own, firmly under all con-
ditions 1t does take "A generous amount
of sugar, but if YOU always remember
when cooking this dish to add pinch OF
soda TO neutraIizc the acids, less Will he
needed. Make an ordinary sugar syrup
and add little orange peeling to flavor
it. while it boils. Put in one cup OF rhu-
barb and tiny pinch of soda; boil this
until il is clear. add more rhubarb and
cook it until there is too little syrup TO
continue. This makes it very rich and
sweet and is the ideal way for the youngest
and most tender plants. Later. YOU can
blanch the rhubarb in clear, boiling water
for one minute and turn this water off
ad more, sweeten and finish quickly. If
rhuFarb PIE is desired. make it in the
English style, like a tart-that is, with
one cruSt,-then it will not be soggy.
For this, use a rather deep pie pan, line
il with paste and sprinkle 1t with -four.
Dice the pic plant and fill the pan with it
and siftings of sugar. Season further with
a grating of nutmeg or a sprinkling of Gin
namon. nder no circumstances use both
these spices together Decorate with
lattice of pastry strips across the top. and
bake until rhubarb is tender and pastry
done.
Another VA, is TO make small tart shells
and fill them with rhubarb cooked in a
heavy syrup. and finish with a meringIe
drowned beautifully in the oven.
Rv all means. let US have a better ac-
quaintance with rhuharh and not use it
as a makeshift until strawberries come in
Use it from spring until autumn, III va
rlous ways, and can plenty for later use.
Remember. rhubarb must never be
cooked in tin, but in porcelain, aluminium
or a baking dish.

ALIEN ENEMIES FLEL
Men Who Didn't March in Harlan Parade
Arouse Ire Of Workers.

Three unnat,ualized alien enemies, en-
ployed at the Harlan plant, who have been
in this country many years, and who did
not march in the parade on Saturday,
escaped some unpleasantncsses planned
for them yesterday afternoon by other
shipbuilders.
The men were expert machIpists and
have been at the Harlan plant Tor some
time Saturday they failed to appear for
the parade, and this fact did not become
known then or trouble might have been
speedily prccipitated. But the facts
leaked out yesterday when heads were
rounted by the workmen rs to who
had lodged the parade. And then a
scheme was hatched
1t was proposed 10 wait until | O'Clock
in the afternoon when the workrnen would
have nm opportunity to march the three
deinuuents through the yard bearing an
American flag Some other punishment
was meditated by the men to follow.
In some manner the thr &c suspects got
wind OF what wns in store for them. The
management pcremptorily discharged one
of the men and the other two disappeared
before they could have n similar fate
meted out tn them.
The workmen were chaprincd that Their
prey bad gotten away, and IT ls safe pre-
diction that Harlan's. with its men

HOW rRISKIE LOST HIS TAIL.

If Friskie had been a good squirrel he
never would have lost part of ms hne
bushy tail. But he was not a good fellow
quite the opposite; he stole everything
he ate.
OF course. if he saw lot of nuts on
the ground he would help himself, but
he never Thought of saving any for the
winter. He had always been lucky,
and he thought he always would be.
He sometimes did not find just what
saited him. and then he was very destruc-
tive. and Jack Rabbits house was found
unset and all his furniture turned upside
down more than once. Just because
Frlskie did not like lettuce pie as well as
he did nut cake.
Of course. it was the squirrel family
that Friskie bothered most of all and while
they watched and set traps for him,
never could they catch the sly Friskie-
he WAS too clever.
Mr.. Bear had some honey put away in
his pantry on the top shelf for his supper,
To cat with hot biscuit. One day while he
was away hunting, Friskie climbed into
lhc window and climbed on the top shelf
and stole all the honey, but he did not

rantry, so he took the honey and ate part
of it: the rest he smeared all over the
window-sill so that the flies were so thick

was full of smoke.

But before tomorrow arrived Mr.. Owl
had cured Friskie of his badness or he had
frightened him away. at any rate, SO the
woods folk were not bothered by him
any more.
il happened that very night that
Friskie was running about to all the
homes where he expected 10 find the
folks away, and he happend to he passing
the tall tree where Mr.. Owl lived OF
course, Friskie did not know MIR Owl
lived there or he never would have chosen

TO sleep III the first comfortable place he
could find so he ran UP the tree and saw

10 get curled comfortably when blng
something had him tight ana an angry

hold on him and out went Frlskie quicker
than ever he moved before in his life,
Iut he left great part OF his bushy tail
IN the claws OF Mr.. Owl.
When he saw how terribly he looked
lriskle ran away from that part of the
dountry, for he did not wish anyone to see
him who had known him when he had 3
handsome bushy tail.
The next day Mr.. Owl took the part

Almost caught him, said Mr. Bear
why didut you catch him when you had

Mr.. Owl thought as he looked at Mr.
Bears paws that he might hold anything
he happened to get hold Of but ne did
not reply; he flew back to watch for
Iriskie. And 1t was well for him that he
had left the woods. for old Mir Owl sat
every night looking for the squirrel whose
tail matched the part he had taken from
Friskie, but, of course, he never found
him.

LEARN TO WATCH THE GAME

Many times | think that people
play their game too hard or too
seriously. They lose perspective.
You rarely hear Of the brilliant
students IN college attaining great
distinction Ii is said that Beecher.
the great pulpit orator, was abso-
lutely dull as a student. And
Grant, who led the American Union
forces to victory, was student NJ
no distinction at West Point.
The fact is, that the man who
later comes TO be a power in the
world, early forms the habit 0f
taking soundiDgs along the way
He is an observer. He is a watcher,
as we'll as player.
Have you never watched 2 game.
only To see the false moves on the
part oi players you counted upon
seeing move correctly? ?
Perspective is SO much ia the
affair OF life.
Learn to wait is very well. But
learn to WATCH while you wait
is better.
And learn 10 profit BY the mis-
takes Of Others. And learn to profit
from your own mistakes But
take very little time in thinking
them over. Mistakes are destruc-
tive. They are many times guide
posts, however not to be run into
oftencr than once. Not that, if
you can help it.
Play the game with all your heart,
while you play. But take a little
time off. occasionally, to see how
the other fellow plays.
