Liberty Cycles Wheels.

One of the outstanding features Of
the Liberty motorcycle, the standard
lied machine developed by the quar-
termaster corps for army service in
France, is the interchangeability of its
wheels, says the Popular Mechanics
Magazine in an illustrated article. A
spare wheel, to be carried on the side
car, will take the place of any one Of
the three wheels in case of an emer-
gency. Furthermore, such a change
can be made in less than a minute. On
either side are transverse tongues
which fit into grooves in the driving
sprocket and brake-drum mechanisms
carried on opposite prongs of the rear
fork. In mounting the wheel it is only
necessary to slide it into place and
lock it with a Knockout axle, which
consists simply Of a central bolt and
nut.

Protect the Birds.

Saving the song birds of France is
the object of a plan proposed by M.
Andre Godart, a Partisan. M. Godart
calls attention to the scarcity of
birds in France, due to insufficient
protection, and the consequent loss to
grape growers of the Gironde in 1910
of 100000 Of francs, as well as a
decrease in the oil production of south
ern France, so great that the olive
growers threatened to abandon the In
dustry. He suggests that goldfinches,
bull finches, linnets, yellowhammers,
thrushes, blackbirds and starlings, all
of which nest readily in gardens, be
reared in large and specially designed
aviaries and released when full grown
to repopulate the now deserted woods
and fields,

HEART EVER KINDLY
John GaIsWorthy Describes the
PoiIu at His Best.
Glad of Opportunity to Divide RatIons
and Make Friends With Four
footed Creature That Had Evil
IDENTIFY Known Suffering.

The sun, boring into his spine
through his thin shirt, made him reach
for his jacket. There was the little
dog still sitting on its base, 20 yards
away. 1t covered and dropped its
ears when he moved, and he thought:
Poor beast Some one has been do
ing the devils work on you, not badly" !"
There were some biscuit in the
pocket of his jacket, and he held one
out. The dog shivered aud its pink
tongue lolled painting with desire and
fear. Jean Liotard tossed the biscuit
gently about half way. The dog cow
cred back a step or two, crept forward
three, and again squatted. Then very
gradually 1t crept up to the biscuit,
bolted it, and regained its distance.
The soldier took out another. This
time he threw 1t five PAGES only in
front of him. Again the little beast
covered, skunk forward, seized the bis
cult, devoured it; but this time 1t only
recoiled a pace or two, and seemed,
with painting mouth and faint wagging
of the tail, to beg for more. Jean
Liotard held third biscuit as far in
front of him as he could, and waited.
The creature crept forward and
squatted just out of reach. There 1t
sat, with saliva dropping from its
mouth; seemingly it could not make up
its mind to that awful venture. The
soldier sat motionless his Outstretched
hand began to tire, but he did not
budge-he meant to conquer its fear.
At last it snatched the biscuit. Jean
Liotard instantly held out fourth.
That, too, was snatched, but at the
fifth he was able to touch the dog. 1t
covered almost into the ground at the
touch of his fingers, and then lay, still
trembling violently, while the soldier
continued to stroke its head and ears.
And suddenly his heart gave twitter;
the creature had licked his hand. He
took out his last biscuit, broke it up
and fed the dog slowly with the bits,
talking all the time; when the last
crumb was gone he continued to muir
muir and crumple it's ears softly. He
had become aware of something hap
pening within the dog-something In
the nature of conversation, as If 1t
were saying: Master, my new masterl
Il worship, love you'll" The crea-
ture came gradually closer, quite close;
then put up it's sharp, black nose and
began to lick his face.-From "Cafard,"

a bundle of asparagus, cut of the
heads and put them aside for a more
delicate dish. Cover the shoots, after
cutting In small pieces, with quart OF
water and cook until the asparagus Is
tender. Rub through a colander and
add this pulp with the liquor used in
cooking to a pint of milk. Cook to-
gether two tablespoonfuls of corn or
barley flour and two tablespoonfuls of
sweet fat; stir into the soup and bring
to boiling point. Servewith popcorn.

when cooking cabbage), four carrots
ground fine, all stewed gently for an
hour in a tight kettle; then add two
tablespoonfuls of butter.
TurnIp soup-Put a tablespoonful
of butter, one slice of onion and three
slices of carrot into saucepan and
stir over the heat until the onion is
yellow; then add four good-sized tar

There should be pint of pulp; after
20 minutes add a quart of milk. two
tablespoonfuls of butter blended with
the same amount of flour, using bar
ley or corn flour; half teaspoonful
of kitchen bouquet; salt and pepper to

Clear Tomato Soup.-Add pint OF
water to quart of tomatoes, a slice
of onion, half bay leaf, dash OF
celery salt and few celery tops.
teaspoonful of salt and a chopped
green pepper. Cook all together 10
minutes, then bind with two table
spoonfuls of cornstarch and butter

Rich Ore Discovery.

Montana is the latest state to re-
port wonderful discoveries of manga
nese ore. There is great excitement in
that state over an alleged marvellous
discovery at a mine where already
about 100000 tons of this precious
ore are in sight. In view of the many
exaggerated reports concerning manga
nese ore that have been circulated in
the United States since the war began,
the report may mean little more than
some of the others.

ed in milk may be used for most
appetizing loaf. Take a tablespoon
full of peanut butter for each cup Of
cooked rice, add seasoning and moist
en- with either tomato or soup stock.
Bake until hot, cover with buttered
crumbs, and when they are brown
serve in the dish In which it is baked.
Noodles and Ham.-Butter n bak-
ing dish or quart mold and sprinkle
thickly with fine bread crumbs, then
line with cooked cold noodles. Put
in a layer of chopped ham, highly sea-
soned, then layer of noodles until the
dish is full. Cover and bake one hour.
Turn out on a platter and serve with
spinach or sauerkraut.
Spiced Carrots.-Cook young car
rots until tender, sprinkle with flour,
powdered cloves, butter and lemon
juice, reheat and serve with minced
parsley as garnish.
Rice Gridde cakes.-Mix two cup
fuls of boiled rice with the same
amount of milk, and let 1t stand over
night. In the morning add two or
three cupfuls of corn flour sifted with
two or three teaspoonfulS or Daklng
powder, dash of sugar, and salt to
taste. Beat until well mixed, add two
beaten eggs and fry on hot griddle.
Beets With Spinach.-Pick over,
wash, and put to cook a half peck OF
spinach. Cook in unsalted water to
which a pinch of soda has been added;
do not cover. Near the end of the
cooking add a teaspoonful of sugar.
When tender, drain and chop. Add
butter, flour, three tablespoonfuls of
fat and one of -four with a half cup
full of cream. Reheat and pack in a
border mold and let stand in hot wa
ter to keep warm.
When ready to serve turn out on
platter with buttered beets in the CEN
ter. Garnish the platter with hard
cooked eggs cut in eighths. This dish
is not only a pleasing color combina-
ton but tastes equally well.

women who need not worry because OF
expense, and the great number who
must count every penny to make ends
meet.
The woman who must watch her
purse closely, that her family Is well
and economically fed, is she who must
study food values, attend every lecture
on foods where she may gain new
ideas or inspiration. We are con-
fused very often in our judgments of
food values by taking this or that food
and learning its nutritive value, but
forgetting that different foodshct upon
each other in the digestive process,
thus producing a more highly nutritive
food than either taken separately.
There will always be something lack
ing in substituting one food for an
other. Rice and potatoes cannot take
the place Of wheat, yet by adding a va
riety Of foods to our diet the health
Of the body as well as its growth may
be kept up with no wheat at all.
The housewife who must consider
cost, with food substitutes, Is the
housewife who needs to study, and
over so per cent of our American wom-
en- are in that class.
When a butter substitute is used
on the table see that the family has
plenty of egg yolk and green vege-
tables to supply the growth determin-
ant found in butter. 1t is better, where
possible, to serve butter to the grow
ing child and economize in some other
way.
We are apt to feel that eggs used
in foods can be saved, thus cutting
down expense; but every egg added to
corn bread, griddle cakes, cake or pud-
ding adds just that much more food
value to the dish.

PresIdents Who Were Soldiers.

More than half of our presidents
have served as soldiers. Washington
and Monroe were soldiers in the Rev
olutionary war; Jackson, William
Henry Harrison, Tyler, Taylor and
Buchanan in the war Of 1872; Lincoln
in the Black Hawk war; Taylor,
Pierce and Grant in the Mexican war !;
Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, Ben
jamin Harrison and Mckinley in the
Civil war; Roosevelt in the war with
Spain.

cupful of small onions, one red pep

tongue, thicken the sauce and pour

Stuffed Onions.-Parboil good-sized
onions and stuff the centers, chop
