Dust In the sWeeper.

"Only last week l found Mary's ear
ring here" said the experienced house
wife to a younger oma as yet quite
inexperienced In housekeeping WAYS
who had wondered why the speaker
should look over the accumulated dust
that she had just shaken out of a
carpet sweeper; the Mary referred to
being the maid employed in this home.
Mary came to me-" the speaker con-
tinued, "and said she had lost one Of
her earrings and she had looked every
where for 1t, but just simply couldn't
find 1t; but / knew the likeliest place
to look for 1t, and there 1 did find 1t.
in the dust of the carpet sweeper,
where many a jewel has been found be-
fore this, and where, no doubt, many a
jewel has been lost. l always look
over the dust out of a carpet sweeper
before throwing 1t away" Upon hear
ing which the inexperienced young
woman registered a mental resolve
that when she went to housekeeping
she would do the same.

Courtesy Was Wasted.

There is such a thing as wasted
courtesy and one encounters It almost
every day in the crowded subway or
elevated trains, observes a New York
correspondent. Recently a man was
riding in a damned train and when It
stopped at the Forty-second street sta
ton there was an thrush Of passen-
gers. Among them was a richly
dressed woman, who led a boy Of
about ten by the hand. She stood be-
fore a misunderstanding man who oc-
cupied a seat. With a touch of his
hat he arose to give the woman his
seat, when the boy broke loose from
her and jumped into the vacant seat.
The woman made no attempt to take
the seat for herself and remained
standing. What was worse, she made
not the slightest acknowledgment OF
tho man's courtesy.

SEVRNTY.POUND LIMIT FOR
PARCEL POST NOW EFFECTIVE

The limit of weight of parcels to be
delivered within the first, second and
third zones has been increased from
so to 20 pounds. Hence, you a here
after send parcels not exceeding 20
pounds in weight to any postoffice
within the three zones mentioned.
This is an increase of 20 pounds in
weight and an extension of the weight
limit to the third zone. The limit size
of parcels is not changed.
Another broad change is the extern
sion of the weight limit to fifty pounds
for delivery within any of the zones.
That is, parcels weighing fifty pounds
can be sent to any postoffice, instead
of being limited to twenty pounds, as
heretofore. This increased weight
does not apply to parcels sent to the
expeditionary forces in Europe. For
those places seven pounds is still the
limit of weight.

CHEESE DIET Is WHOLESOME
One Pound Of the Food Supplies More
Than Twice as Much Energy as
Same Amount of Steak.

Too many people use cheese merely
as an appetizer, says the Scientific
American in commenting on a recent
bulletin of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. According TO this
bulletin and to the universal practice
in the great cheese-producing countries
of Europe, cheese is one of the most
valuable of foods and a most satisfac-
tory substitute for meat.
A pound of cheese supplies more
than twice as much energy as a pound
of fowl or round steak and almost
twice as much protein as the same
amount of fowl or ham.
Contrary to the opinion Of many,
cheddar or "store'' cheese Is not usu-
ally indigestible and constipating. Ex-
tensive digestion experiments conduct
ed by the department have demon
strated that more than 95 per cent of
the protein In cheese is digested and
that 80 per cent of its energy is avail
able. Even when eaten In large guam
titles and for long periods, no case OF
indigestion, constipation or other dis
turbance was observed In those who
ate it. One person who ate cheese as
the chief source of protein and energy
eating an average of 9.27 ounces daily
for more than two years, did a fail
amount of muscular work and kept In
good health.

OLD TOMBS OF PATRIARCHS
Cave Of Machpelah, Bought by Abrs-
ham for a Buryino Place, Has
stood Ravages of Time.

The tombs of the patriarchs in Jeru-
salem, the ave of Machpelah, which
Abraham bought for "a possession of
a burylng place." is still in existence.
For forty centuries ii withstood the
ravages of time and men, relates a
writer.
1t is situated in the town of Hebron,
IS miles south-southwest Of Jerusalem,
and sheltered from proclamation by a
Mahometan mosque that rises above 1t.
The tomb contains the whole patri-
archal family, with the exception of
Rachel. The cave is divided into an
upper and a lower compartment. Only
the upper compartment is accessible to
the priest in charge of the mosque,
but he only enters it in times of great
calamity, and for the sole purpose of
praying. AS to the lower compart-
ment, where repose the illustrious ia
theirs of the Jewish nation, they re-
manned completely closed until the
year 1862, when, for the first time,
King Edward VII, then the prince
of Wales, together with Doctor Stan
ley. the dean of Westminster Abbey,
and two other friends, were granted
admission.
The six tombs are arranged symmet-
rically in rows of twOs; a seventh, in
the wall, is believed to belong to Jo-
seph. Abraham's tomb, which has the
form of a coffin with a shelving ridge,
is about eight feet high, and Is set in
the cemented stone and marble. 1t is
covered with three gold embroidered
green carpets, which are the gifts of
the emperor of COnstantinople, Ma
homet ii, the conqueror of Egypt, Selim
II, and the Sultan Abdul Medjld.

President Wilson will sit in that con-
ference. If ii is held in Europe, as il
probably will be, Mr. Wilson can hard
ly be expected to break the precedent
which forbids a president TO leave the
country during his term of Office.
Even If it were held in this country, il
is regarded as impossible that the
President could spare the time re-
CURED
It is staid that the conference may
last for a year or longer, because OF
the immense amount Of business it will
have to transact. While it lasts. it
will demand the unremitting attention
OF its members. To attend it. then. the
President would be obliged virtually to
drop out OF the presidency for the time
required. Inasmuch as being presi-
dent is somewhat of job itself, Mr.
Wilson will doubtless stick TO his ex-
ecutive office and delegate the peace
work TO others.

THE FOOD PATRIOTS TEST

Do you want our soldiers kept in
good health?
Do you want to help feed the civil
ian population of the Allies, so that
they may stand strong in back of our
lines in France?
Do you want to save a million Amer
lean lives?
DO you want peace in 1919?
Yes.
Then you must test every action,
every day and every hour with this
sentence. Does this, that / am now
doing, contribut to winning the war?
If you use more than three teas
poonsful of sugar a day.
If you eat bread made of unmixed
wheat flour.
If you use too much fats in frying.
If you do not cut down in your use
OF meat
Then the answer is no.
But If all the sugar you use is one
teaspoonful in your morning coffee,
one in your tea at luncheon, and one
in coffee at night.
If you mix at least 20 per cent of
any authorized substitute -four with
wheat in baking, reduce your con-
sumption of bread, and waste not a
single crumb
If you save fats by being careful of
butter, and eliminating most fried
foods.
If you often eat fish, and eggs in
stead of meat, and cut down your nor
NAL consumption of meat as much as
possible, wasting nothing, then you
earn the answer, yes.
There are many things to think of
besides fighting on the field. We con-
fidently expect military victory, but
our armies cannot attain this unless
they are well fed. Every man, woman
and child in America must by sacrifice
and conscientious attention to food
regulations, secure the well-being of
all those who live and fight under the
Allied flags.

That the old Kaiser Twill wake up

made by Sergeant Elmer Kammerer.
q member of the seth division of the
American Expeditionary Forces in
France, in a letter TO his parents, Mr..

Sergeant Kammerer writes:

troops, and their services will never

Sergeant Kammerer expressed the

AMERICANIsM-NOT POLITICS

While the Congressional campaign
drew to an end in bitterness and re-
elimination, and the civilian voters
went to the polls to register their de-
cision, the men in France were fight
ing the Germans without a thought of
politics. All they were concerned with
was winning the war thoroughly and
completely. as
They have done their part. The
war is now won, or so nearly won that
nothing remains but to clinch the vic
tory. Ii remains for the people at
home to do their part, and make sure
and permanent the fruits of the VIC
tory.
It need hardly be said that a
triumph won in so bipartisan a way
should not be dealt with now or hence
forth in a partisan spirit. 1t may be
too much to expect the same unani-
nifty I'm Congress that we have in our
army: but the partisan differences
must be minimized. not emphasized.
Everybody knows what the war was
fought for. Everybody knows what we
have won. In the peace principles
formally set forth and written thus
far into armistice agreements and
into the constitutions of the new ma
tons that are arising out of the Euro
pean wreckage, Americanism has
triumphed
Not the Democratic party, not the
Republican party, but the American
people. is stamping its impress on this
war. II both parties are true to the
principles they professed during the
campaign. there will be no petty OBJ
structionism. no factional meddling.
The allied governments. acting in
concert, have started well with the
work of re-making the world in the
interests of peace. They know what
they are about. Thus far. they are
doing what the American people want
them to do. If people and Congress
back them unitedly. they will continue
to do so.
The work of reconstruction in
Europe, and little later on, at home,
is as important as was the work of the
war which made reconstruction pos
sible. II is no time to throw partisan
monkey into the govern
mental machinery. The people want,
and expect. Americanism-not poll
tics-at Washington.
