SYSTEM IN WHEAT SAVING

Two much sameness in menus con
tanning wheat substitutes should be
avoided. 1t might annoy the family
and make the housewives patriotic eff.
tort harder. There must be a definite
plan Of conservation in order to avoid
the possibility Of say, oatmeal for the
breakfast cereal, oatmeal something
or other for lunch, and oatmeal bread
for dinner-not at all desirable diet
Elimination Of wheat from the
breakfast menu reduces the choice OF
cereals to three-oatmeal, rolled oats
and corn meal. These used alternatet
ly, with simple hot dish, bread and
butter or jam, constitute a substantial
breakfast.
Lunch always requires bread of
some kind, mullins, biscuit or cake,
but all of these should contain a wheat
substitute
Dinner-Sodp always in winter),
plenty of vegetables, /. e., potatoes
and at least two other vegetables;
salad, If there is no soup, or salad
that will replace one vegetable. Des-
sert-With such a dinner very little,
II any, bread Is used.
In brief, leave corn meal, oatmeal
and rolled oats for breakfast dishes.
Use breads with q goodly proportion
Of substitutes for lunch and for din
nsr; soups, plenty Of vegetables and
salads will make bread almost un.
necessary

An Old Mans Stomach.

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. II too
much is habitually taken, the stom-
ach will rebel. When man reaches
the advanced age of IS or 90, you
will find that he is light eater. Be
as careful as you will, however. you
will occasionally eat more than you
should and will feel the need of
Chamberlain's Tablets to correct the
disorder. These tablets do not con-
tain pepsin, but strengthen the stom-
ach and enable it to'perform its func-
lions naturally They also cause a
gentle movement OF the bowels.-Ady

THE CIRCUS GIRAFFE.

"Ill tell you secret, little one"
said Mother Giraffe
Now had Mother Giraffe been
speaking to anyone or anything except
another giraffe it would have sounded
like very big joke when she said lit

For there, by her side, was the little
one, and no one in the wide world, or
in the circus tent, or in the mountains
or valleys would ever have called the
young giraffe little one" Her name
was Netty, this little one, and she was
Mother Giraffe's youngest child. There

Giraffe, Il will tell you circus secret.

Daddy Giraffe bent his great, long
neck down over the top bar of his
cage and said, in giraffe language

until l have heard what you have to

WILD BLACK CHERRY.

'I'n going to tell you a story to-
night" commenced Daddy, about the
wild black cherry tree and family"
= "Well, of all the wicked sounding
trees" said Nancy, 1.-The wild black
cherry sounds about the worst. Fancy
He has wild in his name and black
as though he were creature who
wanted to frighten people"
HE sounds rather good to me-"
said Nick, who always loved cherries
better than any other fruit and
thought that the very sound of the
word cherries was rather luscious!
''Wel, he is a good old tree" said
Daddy, land 1 will surely have to tell
you about him for his name seems to
have made Nancy think of a wicked
tree and Nick of a tree giving wonder
full cherries to boys, eh?"
Nick laughed and Nancy said, DO
tell us about the tree. 1t sounds in
teresting at any rate
So Daddy began. I'm the spring the
wild black cherry tree is very beauti-
full with it's lovely blossoms-for cher
nv trees do blossom about as exquisite
ly as any of the spring trees. Then
when summer comes the blossoms turn
into fruit.
'aThe wild black cherry tree is very
handsome. Its foliage is something
like that of the willow, dropping and
'soking very dainty and lovely. Its
lark is rich and soft, but best of all
as Nick would agree-is the fruit
which is used for making all sorts of
delicious goodies, especially wild cher
~ juice!
"Then medicines and tonics have
been made from the fruit and bark
and roots Of the wild black cherry.

Huns Aim TO Meet Allied Blow
on Eastern Border.

Copenhagen, Nov. 4.--The Germans
are panic stricken at the possibility
of an allied invasion of Austria, ac-
cording to a Vienna despatch to the
Politiken, which says that Austro-
Hungarian troops are being withdrawn
from the western front, and that the
Germans are digging trenches and
otherwise terrifying the Bavarian from
tier.
Uate dispatches from the battle
area above Verdun report that 10000
Austrians have detrained on their way
home from the Meuse- Moselle front
alone The German retreat on the
American front is ascribed to the de-
lection of the Austrians.)
According to the Tageblatt, the
kaiser's appearance at military head
quarters is much regretted by political
circles. The Tageblatt declares that

290,773 DRAFTEES
CALLED TO Service
November Movement to Train
ing Camps Announced.

Washington, Nov. 4.-Draft calls for
the mobilization of 290,773 additional
men at army training camps before
November 81 were announced by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder.
Between November II and Il, it was
announced, 253,335 white men, physi-
cally qualified for general military
service, will entrain, making the larg-
est single call issued under the selec-
tive service act.
The remainder of the November to-
tai, so far as announced, will be made
I'D of negroes for entrainment Novem-
Der 10 to 81
With the assembling of the men pro-
vided in these calls at Camp, the to-
tai number of men indicted into mill
tary service under the draft will have
passed the 100000 mark, and the
number of men in the United States
army, in the field, or in training, will
total more than 100000.
Men who registered September II
under the act extending the draft age
limits will make up the largest proper
ton of the November mobilization, as
the eligible list remaining from pre-
vious registrations largely was ex-
hausted by the October calls.
Of the 253,335 white men to be call

PUBLIC EkT!hG3 Places
MUST SAVE MORE FOOD

Fourth meals, the table d'hote,
foreign languages on the "menu"-beS
pardon, the bill of fare-and the reach
able sugar bowls must be routed, &C
cording TO the October 21st orders or
the Food Administrator.
They are all enemies of thrift, and
increased savings of foodstuffs are nee
essary to carry out Americas pledge
to send her allies an extra 5,730,0Oo
tons this coming twelve months.
Short, simple bills are suggested Tor
the three daily meals, and the use OF
hors d. oeuvres, vegetable Salads
fruits. seafoods, and made over dishes
Is recommended.
Definite rules are laid down for "all
places where food La sold to be con-
sumed on the premises" They affect
nine million people every day.
No bread Is to be served till the first
course is on the table and then only
two ounces of Victory Bread or NUT
fms. Neither bread nor bacon may be
served as a garniture.
or meats, which include beef, NUT
ton, pork and poultry, patron must
satisfy himself with one kind at
sitting. Likewise must he content
himself with half-ounce Of butter and
the same amount of cheese. And OF
sugar a teaspoonful will on request be
produced from an invisible sugar
bowl
And there is strict injunction
against burning any waste food which
must be reduced for fats or fed to
animals.
A pamphlet which has been issued
to those primarily affected explains
that as the country's resources are no
greater than last year there must be
further reduction in consumption and
waste of foodstuffs and of meats and
fats; that is to say, pork, beef, poul-
try, dairy products and vegetable Oil
products. It announces that the new
rules will be rigidly enforced by the
State Administrator. As Mr.. Hoover
says:
1--WE know that the majority of men
In this class of business will welcome
this enforcement on the ground that
protects the patriot from the Stacker
and gives the honest man who wants
to save for the country protection from
the wrongful acts Of his unpatriotic
competitors"

So you see Nancy, the wild black cher
ry really does all it can to make folks
well and happy. Many medicines have
parts of the old wild black cherry in
them"
II like to hear about the regular
cherry juice BEST" said Nick.
Eyes, I guess 1 do too" said Nancy.
well, well, well, We'll change the
subject then. But still when we are
so well and strong we don't need to
mind talking about medicines. It's
only when we have to take them that
we mind talking about them too, or
when we are afraid we may have to
take them"
But as the children looked as if they
only partly agreed and as if they
thought medicine wasn't the most
pleasant of subjects in the world, Dad
dy told them of something else the
wild black cherry tree and its family
did to make itself useful.
CHERRY wood" said Daddy, sis con-
sidered by many people to be almost
as handsome as rosewood and mahog-
any, and the old wild black cherry tree
is the tree which is used to make beau
tiful cherry-wood furniture. So it
helps make some of the loveliest chairs
and sideboards and dining-room tables
and other pieces Of furniture"
pretty good of the same family Of
trees to help make dining-room tables
as well as cherry juice which folks can
drink who sit at dining-room tables"
"Yes," said Daddy, 1.-THE wild black
cherry is about one of the most useful
members of the whole tree family.
Its cousin, the wild cherry, is greatly
enjoyed by birds who simply love to
eet the little fruits.
Another cousin, the choke cherry,
Is q tree filed with very bitter fruit
but the birds like the choke cherry
trees almost as well as any other and
iock about any they may find. The
choke cherry tree is also very short
and small.
1.-THE fashionable and rich cousin
is the sweet cherry which is cultivated
in this country. And these are the
CHerr1eS WHICH we all ike TO eat pest
eve do" said Nick.
"And you didn't think" said Daddy,
"that had a surprise for you. After
telling you all about the different
kinds Of cherries have in little box
over on yonder table samples of the diff
ferent kinds of fruits and then in the
box further away I have some sweet
cherries so we may all have a party"
