The new wheat rules are apt to have
the effect of making US sit back in our
chairs and take things easy-uniess
we think. Conservation is no less de-
sirable or necessary today than it was
a year ago. Because our bread is only
20 per cent substitute instead ct rs,
we must not think that we can have
all the wheat we want. Whenever we
en- get along with less bread, when
ever we can substitute aother things,
we should do it. For Instance, there is
OUT old american stand-by-cern-
bread. According to the United
States food administration, we should
consume our normal amount of corn
bred to save ' heat.

Two observation-disclosures

To the Spectator thanks are due for
two enterprisng mistranslations, one
belonging to the genus schoolboy howl
or, and the other resulting from an
attempt at French on the part of a
mess sergeant.
The menu one day announced 'inl-
beetle rOti" as the piece de resistance,
the riddle being solved by the appear
ance of roast goose. 1t is just possible
that the sergeant nOurished some re-
sentiment against that particular
goose, but it was generally thought
that the imbecile roti had resulted

One &C The queer things about the
nutmeg is the romantic way in which
nature thwarted the Dutch attempt to
establish a complete monopoly Of the
spice. They own the Banda islands,
where most of the nutmeg trees grow,
and ut one time they wanted to pre-
vent everyone else from raising the
spice. SO to keep up prices and to
induce other planters on other islands
to cut down their plantations the
Dutch at one time burned three piles
of nutmegs, each of them said to have
been as big as an average church.
They induced other planters to join
with them and it soon seemed as
though they were killing all competi-
ton.
Then nature took q hand in the
game. A large pigeon of the islands,
which was extremely fond of mace,
carried the seeds to all the surround
ing lands, even to the mainland of
Asia. Nutmeg trees began to grow
wild in numerous places and all danger
of monopoly was removed-Boston

Old English Furniture.

That fine old furniture is yet found
in britain in many unexpected places
is said to be largely due to the stir
ring up Of the country that was given
by the great exhibition at London OF

had q wonderful Fascination for them.
On returning home they got rid Of
much of their Old furniture and
bought new. Much of the Old furni-
ture found its way to secondhand
shops, and was sold to poor folk, who
could not afford to buy new. This ac-
counts for the finding today of much
good old furniture in small houses in
provincial towns and among country
