Only one teaspoon of sugar should
be served with each meal, to supply
all requirements of tea, coffee, break
fast foods or any other forms of food.
Sugar at eating houses should only
be served in envelopes containing one
teaspoonful. Before serving sugar
each guest should be asked by the
waiter whether or not he desires SUI
gar with his meal. This Federal
Food Administrator rule must be
adhered to, and any violation Of
same will mean revocation of license
and withdrawal of all sugar supplies
during the period of the war. Sugar
being one of the foods most neces-
sary to the Allied armies it should be
the patriotic duty of every American
citizen to cheerfully conform to the
foregoing requirement. Any ex-
pressed objection to this rule should
be accepted as positive evidence of
pro- ermanism,-Walter lines.

Must Borrow For Canning

In order to meet the demands for
sugar for canning it will be neces-
sary for us to borrow from next win
ter's supply of sugar. 1t is thought
better to borrow from next winters
sugar rather than let fruit spoil. Ev-
cry person who uses sugar for can
ming should use it sparingly, and
where possible should can without
sugar. By all means food should be
preserved. There will be a shortage
of that kind Of food otherwise and
prices are bound to go up.

fosTERED BY FRENCH KING
Famous Sevres Ware Had Its Begin
ming When II Favorably Attracted
Attention Of Louis.

Early in the eighteenth century the
manufacture of a rather a~rtificiaIlook-
ing porcelain was begun at Ronn,
France. At Chantilly, about the year
IT'S, a porcelain was made which imi-
tated the Imari ware of Japan. Some
10 years later another factory was es-
tablished at Vincennes, and o comes
the beginning of the famous Sevres.
1t was in the year 1853, so historians
interested in this subject tell u.s., that
the king, Louis XIV, who for the past
FIVE years had been making donation
for the carrying on of the work, al
lowed the adjective "royal" to be add
ed to the name of the work, and grant.
ed the use of two interlaced LIS as
a trademark. In order to keep a
record of the porcelain made in diff
ferent years, a scheme of lettering
was arranged which, to the initiated,
would tell the tale. For example, an
A in the space between the two LIS
signiied that the piece of porcelain
thus marked was made in that year In
which the king began to take an active
interest In the work, 1853. Three
years later the factory was removed
from vincennes to Sevres, and 1t y
there that one may visit 1t today, over
In one corner of the beautiful park
Of st. Cloud. not far from the Seine.
And. in 1859, the king took 1t over
as a state industry, Ito be managed
~henceforth as such.
Now, it happened that the making
Of porcelain appealed to Madame de
Pompadour. and she did everything In
her power to bring the Sevres prod
net up to the highest possible artistic
standard, to popularize the ware at
court and throughout the country. and
ever throughout the whole of Europe.
Among the beautiful colors which we're
employed in this ware, m of the love-
Hest was named for her. the "rose

Secret Of Book of Revelation.

The number 666 used in the Bible

source Of speculation as to what per-

University of Cincinnati. the key to
the riddle lies In the fact that In the

And never say too much. or look

If you can love him, minus shave or

If you can cook-when Bookings

And go on being grateful just

If you al hear the earnest words

Twisted to make them sound in

Or see your dearest hopes and idols

And never say a single word;
If you can make one heap Of your IL

And risk them on One Man-to

And, finding all your fairest dreams
delusions,
Can still declare that he was worth
it all;
II you can force your heart and
nerves and sinew
To keep a smiling face until the
end,
And never show what thoughts are
seething in you,
And seem to feel the joy that you
pretend
If you a have your "say'-and
then keep quiet,
And never lose your gentle little

If you can hide his weakness or deny

And other men don't interest you
