Where Canes Arc Popular.

There is probably no country In the
world where the use of walking sticks
Is so general ns In the United King
dom. Practically every man carries a
cane, not only In the towns and cities,
but also in the country; and, In addi-
tion, there is large demand for walk
ing sticks for women, these being used
extensively in the country and at sea-
side resorts, but not to n great extent
In the cities.
The winter months are always rainy
and even during the summer the wealth
er is often very unsettled, so that the
use of umbrellas is also unusually
great. These conditions have made
the manufacture of umbrellas and
walking sticks an important industry
In the British isles.

Year of Christ's Birth.

History tells us that for 800 years
the Christians had no calendar of their
own, but reckoned the years according
to the customs Of the nations TO which
they belonged. The Roman Christians
used the "Annn Urbis Conditiae" or
year of the founding Of Rome, to count
from; others counted from the reign
of Docletian, calling 1t ''the Era of the
Martyrs" and still others used the
calendar of the Copts Of Egypt. In the
sixth century, Denis the Little, n Greek
monk living in Rome. made calendar
counting from the Incarnation, the
date of which he fixed at 1913 A. U. C.
SO we commonly say that Rome was
founded In 753 b. C. At the beginning
of the eighth century. the venerable
Bede pointed out that this was an his
torical blunder. But no general no
tice was taken of his criticism, and the
error has continued to this day. His
toric facts have enabled modern schol-
ars to determine, without much pos
slbility Of doubt, the exact year of the
birth of Jesus and to place it Mt what
we call : b. c.

HOME CHEESE IS
MOST DELICIOUS
Follow Directions Given and See
if 1t Isn't ReIished.
GOOD SUBSTITUTE FOR MEAT
Pound for Pound Cottage Cheese Con-
tains 25 Per Cent More Protein
Than Medium-Fat Side of
Beef--Easy to Make.

Given a choice between a nice, juicy
piece of beef and a dish of cottage
cheese, and the chances are you would
take beef. We are such a meat-loving
people. But pound for pound, cottage
cheese contains 25 per cent more pro-
tein-the bodybuilding substance for
which we eat meat largely-than
medium-fat side of beef. And the
cheese costs about half as much. 1t
has less energy value than beef, but
1t is nevertheless capable of taking
meats place In the diet.
This Cheese Easy to Make.
Because cottage cheese is n most
palatable and nutritious product ana
because 1t can be made easily on n
small scale with little equipment in
any kitchen and because 1t Is an eco
nomical and convenient means of util-
izing skim milk-a good food much
neglected-in the human diet, FOOD
and dairy specialists of the United
States department of agriculture are
urging its wider use to save meat.
Haphazard methods used in making
this cheese, together with the lack OF
simple and easily available directions,
probably are responsible. the special
lists say, for the comparatively smau
quantities made and used at present.
Uncertainty of results and defects In
the finished products also have been
causes for discouragement in making.
BY following the directions given here
1t is believed a better and more uni
form product may be obtained.
