MAKING MEATLESs
DAYS PERMANENT.


In the meatless menu there Is fer.
tile field for developing new and nour-

writing in the Hotel Gazette. who be-
lieves that the present shortage of;
meat and fats will not end with the
coming of peace, but may grow more
acute and continue for five or six
years, thus making 1t worth while to-
develop menus Of grain. vegetables
and fish on more or less permanent,
basis. Meat can be replaced by cerealsi
and other protein foods. or may be-
served In very small portions as fla

these excellent wheatless biscuits.
First, the cornmeal-one-half cup
is put in shallow pan placed in the
oven and stirred frequently until it
is delicate brown. The other ingre-
dents are a teaspoon of salt, cup
of peanut butter and one and half
cups of water. Mix the peanut but
ter water and salt and heat. While
this mixture is hot stir in the meal
which should also be hot. Beat thor
oughiy. The dough should be of such
consistency that it can be dropped
from spoon. Bake in small cakes
in an INCREASED pan, This makes 16
biscuits, each of which contains one
sixth of an ounce of protein.

WHEN MAN is REALLY TIRED
Recreation Is Not What the Worn Sys-
tenn Demands, but Rather to
Rest and Sleep.

In an article about tired business
men in the American Magazine writ
er says:
"When man says he is tired, he
means that he Is the victim of fatigue
and that the requirements of the days
work have exhausted his mental and
physical resources. Is this true? If
it were, the victim of this terrific day
would go home and fall into bed to re-
cuperate from what he has suffered.
But he does not. He does one of two
things; either he spends the evening
ut home romping, with the kids. or
reading, or amusing himself with some
fad or game; or he goes out and puts
in anywhere from four to eight hours
seeing show, going to u roof garden,
taking an automobile ride, dancing q
good many miles or playing cards.
"It turns out that he Is not rs tired
rs he thought he was. In fact, to all
intents and purposes, he is not tired
Mt all. If he were. he could not show
up laughing and with the CLEAN OF
hearty enjoyment in his eye ut the end
Of a dance or an automobile ride. or
whatever 1t is that he has selected us a
means of killing time before he
chooses to go to bed. The man who
is really fatigued has no desire to
dance, does not want to be bounced
around in an automobile, does not
care to sit through u play, feels an
aversion to game of cards. If he is
really fatigued there is only one thing
he does want, and that is rest-rest
und Sleep"

LAND OF HOLY MEMORIES
Psychological Effect Of Palestine 10
VividIy Portrayed BY Woman
Traveller. Who Felt II.

Palestine gave me II psychological ex-
perience that l shall never forget, Hes
ter D. Jenkins writes in "Asia." I had
not been very DESTROYS to travel there
because knew that most of the sacred
places, such as Adams Tomb, Dayid's
Tower, the Upper Chamber, even CAL
vary itself, We're merely places tagged
by fifteenth century pilgrims with no
regard to truth. I knew that Chris
tians had quarreled scandnlously over
the city, and that many superstitions
had usurped the name of religion and
expected dirt and disillusion. But
gradually l came to recognize in the
land the setting for the wonderful life
of Jesus and. the background for the
Hebrew scriptures. AS we steamed
past Sidon and Tyre. one beautiful
summer Sunday, felt distinct at
mosphere quite different from that Of
Syria. 1t became intensified in Jerusa-
lem, where 1 was never unconscious
of it. And when I entered the Church
of the Sepulcher, although knew that
Christ did not lie there, I was struck
by 1t as by wind. This emotional at
mosphere hung over the whole country.
from Jaffa to Nazareth, and only when
our train left the Sea Of Galilee did 1t
suddenly drop away.
l explained 1t to myself as the at
mosphere Of tears and prayers and as
prations that had gushed forth in
this siand of holy memories. 1t seemed
to me, especially rs l stood before the
spurious tomb of Christ, that l was
bathed in the emotion of past pilgrims.
1t is this that makes little. poor, insig-
nificant Palestine the greatest country
in the world. Men have SO deeply
loved her. No city in the world has
known such abandonment Of sorrow
and of ecstasy and OF prayer as has
Jerusalem.

SEEK ONLY TO PLEASE EYE
Japanese Dinner Entertainments Far
From Satisfying the Requirements
Of the Inner Man.

In the matter of eating 1t is agreed
that the japanese cuisine Is not of
the richest in nutritlve culture. 1t Is
not inexpensive; Japanese dinners are
elaborate in preparation, artistic In
presentation, but for satisfying the In
ner man are far inferior to European
or even Chinese cooking. The chief
characteristic of n purely japanese din
ner is to please the eye, not the palate
or stomach. 1t Is national joke that
one must eat meal before going to
or after returning from n Japanese
dinner.
Oh, how much labor and expense are
lavished on gochiso Entertainment
to make it nice to look at That is all
sheer waste and luxury and is to be
condemned. Providence has kindly
put in the power of every japanese to
live in the most economical manner, so
the Japanese dinner is blasphemous
abuse of provldential- beneficence. It
is an ana chronistic relic of feudalism,
reminiscent of the morbid tastes Of the
idle, luxurious overlords A monstrous
fact is that these customs are not gO-
ing out Of fashion.-EXchange.

Easy to Exterminate Skunk.

Some authorities hold that skunkss
are the most abundant of all wild ami
mails. This Is hard to believe after
one has long watched the squirrels ard
the rabbits, but it may be true. II
must be remembered that the daylight
sliunks are the exceptions, and that
most of the tribe only show themselves
by starlight. For all we know, every
field may be chock full of skunks at
midnight If 1t be true that they are
our most plentiful species it must be
apparent that the harm they do Is not
tremendous. 1t would be comparasi
lively easy to extermlnate them as so
many of our small woodland species
have been exterminated. Besides,
skunk pelts are valuable. With the
double incentive of revenge and profit
skunk hunters should be able to make
mephitis extinct in n few years.

Put Fear In Congregation.

A psychological problem worth In
vestigation is the effects Of uni
formed British policeman attending
church in an unofficial capacity. Re-
Gently the presence of u constable in
q South London church produced many
an attack of. nerves. His attitude was
wholly devout. He sat in the rear Of
the church, where he could only be
seen by few, but in less than five min
utes the news that he wns there and
had been passed from pew TO pew.
and every one began to fdget. What
did he want? Whom was he after?
Somehow 1t never occurred TO any one
that he was seeker after spiritual
light They imagined that he had
come to arrest somebody, and they
were curious to see who II could be.
Even after the service was over and
the policeman had gone home without
taking a prisoner 1t was interesting to
watch the people. They separated
into little groups, and each little
group eyed some other little group
suspiciously and whispered mysteri-
ously.

Corsicans Hard Fighters.

In the matter of utter disregard for
death, of complete forgetSulness Of
self, French officers agree that the Cor
slcans are superior to all other SOL
diers of France. Impetuous and vim
dictive, they hate the enemy with a
passionate ferocity that blinds them
to any thought Of danger. Besides
this, they are intensely proud of the
fact that they come from the island
that produced Napoleon, and cherish
above all else the recollection of the
military valor of the greatest of Corsl-
cans. To them cowardice is the un-
forgivable sin, and to falter in the
face of danger Is to win the eternal
contempt of comrades.
The Corsicans have n long warlike
history, and years ago fought side by
side with the British. For brief Pc
rlod in the eighteenth century Corsica
was under the protection Of Great
Britain, and the people acknowledged
George III rs their king.

MAKE UNIQUE gifts
TO THE RED CROSS
Striking Examples of Personal
Sacrifices Seen in Some Re-
cent Contributions.

Striking examples of personal sac
ridces to aid the Red Cross are COM
ing to light constantly, the two latest
ones being among the most interest
Ing. and involving the giving up Of
treasured heiflooms.
Mrs. Ella J. Harvey, Mlnooka, Ill.,,
has given an antique lamp which was
found In tomb in Ur of the Chaldees,
the Mesopotaminn city from which
Abraham journeyed to the promised
land. The lamp was brought to this
country and given to Mrs. Harvey's
mother by niece who had been a
missionary to Turkey.
The lamp is Of pottery and about
three and one half inches long, resem-
bling the lamps told about in the story
of the foolish virgins. 1t evidently Is
several thousand years old. Mrs. Har-
vey sent 1t to Central Division head
quarters to be sold and the proceeds
used by the Red Cross.
The second gift is Mormon coin,
issued ina 1S49 and said to be one Of
only two now in existence or circula-
ton. Mr.. w. P. Davis, of Southerland.
H., sent 1t with similar request that
1t be sold and the proceeds go into the
Red Cross treasury. At one time n
coin collector offered $500 for this
Mormon coin, which is ten dollar
piece. 1t was minted in Salt Lake City
and was obtained in 1850 by Capt.
John A. Head, who carried 1t for 30
years and then gave it to Mr.. Davis.
The lamp and the coin will be sent
where they will find the highest bid
der. and the fine spirit of the donors
will be duly acknowledged.
