Electric Eye Burglar Alarm
Set Off by Rays of Light

A burglar alarm set off by rays of
light is possible as the result of
scheme introduced under the trade
name of the electric eye" by DR.. 0.
Hannach of Berlin. 1t is merely
sensitive selenium cell which will give
a signal, when it is illuminated.
1.-THE selenium cell acts in the usual
way as relay" says the Scientific
American Supplement. '"The cell is
small and can easily be hidden in the
decorations of safe or piece of furni-
ture and covered with glass. The ad-
vantage claimed over ordinary burglar
alarms is that the device will operate
as soon as light is introduced into
the dark room, while other alarms
have to be excited by the breaking OF
an electric circuit or by mechanical
vibrations. AS the electric eye works
with a suspended coil, however, acct
dental vibrations might make it more
sensitive than is desired.

Special Playing Cards Now
For Subjects of the Kaiser

German war enthusiasm has found
vent in the Punishment from Berlin
of the conventional playing cards and
the substitution of specially printed
packs, says writer, in which the ira
ditional kings, queens and knaves have
been superseded by portraits Of war
celebrities, such as, for instance, the
kaiser and the crown prince, linden
burg, Won Kluck and Tirpitz.
The idea is not exactly new, SINH
lar patriotic packs" having made
their appearance in 1901, during the
last Franco-German war. These are
now valued by collectors.
Many years later the kaiser had
number of so-called "royal packs"
printed, from his own designs, at the
German government playing-card fac
tory at Altenburg, near Berlin. One
of these, now in possession Of King
George, bears the portrait of his grand
mother, Queen Victoria, as queen Of
hearts. The kaiser figures as the king
of hearts, while to the pope is allotted
the kingship of spades. By a pretty
bit of irony the knaves are represented
by four leading European statesmen,
Lord Beaconsfield, Britain's then pre-
mier, being knave of clubs.

Spiced Beef,

Take five pounds or more, depending
upon the size Of the family, of beef
from the rump. Trim away the meat
and cut Sits several inches from the
edge in which to pack the stuffing,
made by using suet, crumbs and vari-
GUS herbs which are enjoyed, pepper,
salt and a grating of nutmeg or a
pinch Of mace. After stufing, rub the
meat all over with salt, pepper, cloves,
allspice, then wet with vinegar. Let
stand over night. In the morning put
into kettle with a cupful of water
and cook slowly (very) for several
hours, allowing a half hour for every
pound of meat, turn it often while
cooking so that the gravy will season
all parts of the meat. Serve hot or
sliced cold. Thicker the gravy and
serve with the meat.

During the past few months the
number of cars in use has grown rap
idly; there are more garages, and a
good volume of orders has been placed.
There are now licensed in the colony
125 mOtorcars and 11S motorcycles
compared with 105 cars and 81 motor
cycles in December, 1916. A canvass
of the dealers and garages indicates
that between % and 80 new cars have
been ordered. all from the United
States. Most of them are popular
priced machines, but there is an in
creasing demand for the higher-grade
ones. An order for IL placed by one
garage included five of high grade. In
spite of excessive freight rates, the
demand promises to continue for
some time, although the market may
easily be overstocked.

scarce or expensive, choose one or
more foods from the same group.
1. Vegetables and Fruit-Everyone
likes fruit, and it is good for you-so
are vegetables. Since they furnish
mineral matter, both help to build up
the bones and other parts of the body
and keep it in good working order.
They help to prevent constipation. All
kinds are good-use them, fresh, dried
or canned. Prunes, raisins, apples and
other dried fruits are good. You can
give them to the children instead of
candy.
2. Milk, Meat, Eggs, Cheese, Fish,
Peas, Beans and Nuts-They furnish
the protein" whose chief business is
to supply nitrogen in the right form
child new muscles, new bones and all
the other parts Of the body are being
made. In the grown person these
parts are constantly wearing out and
must be replaced. Foods supplying
protein and ash are needed for this
purpose. For example, in choosing
from group two, if you have beans or
peas, and some milk, you can use them
in place of meat.
In this group (No. p, milk Is the
most important. Of course, it is absO-

the growing child needs it, too. If the
child has it, he needs but little of any
of the other foods in this group.

The town clerk of Henley-on-Thames

always during that period supplied the

And yonder ivy fondling the broken castle

Your purse and your preference both
deserve consideration.
4. Sweets, Sugar and Sirups-Jel-
lies and preserves are fuel for the
body, too, but, in general, they are
more expensive than cereals. Use
them for flavor, but little will go a
long way. If the children eat too
much sweets, they won't have an ap-
petite for the foods they need most,
like bread, and milk. Instead of
candy, you can give them fruits, which
contain enough sugar to satisfy them,
but which are not likely to spoil their
appetites.
5. Fats-Butter or other good fats,
cottonseed oil, lard, drippings, ETC., are
another kind of fuel. People who do
hard work, especially outdoors, need
more fats than those who are not so
active. They are a relatively expen-
sive form of fuel, and besides the ami
NAL fats are scarce now and needed for
our armies and our allies, so use them
sparingly.
These five kinds Of fOod-fruits
and vegetables, meats or meat substi-

necessary for the proper nourishment
of the body. Remember that the cere-
