IF You Want to Get Thin
The April Farm and Fireside says

The April Farm and Fireside says
"You must make up your mind to
give up starchy foods, sugar, rich
sauces, gravies, and of course all al
coholic liquors. Eat plenty of green
vegetables-prepared without but
ter, oil, cream, or milk-and fresh
fruit.
"Start the day with a glass of lem
onade without sugar. For breakfast
eat one strip of bacon or a little ham
with dry toast or dry roll without
butter, and tea or coffee without
sugar or cream.
"For lunch eat little fruit-ap-
pie, orange, peach, or pear. If you
have been accustomed to a hearty
lunch, taper off gradually to the
fruit lunch by having cup of clear
broth without fat, and vegetable
cooked without fat. Bread must be
dry to stale.
"For dinner eat lightly of beef,
mutton, or fish (no pork but satisfy
your appetite with vegetables and
Slice of bran bread. If you must
drink coffee, drink it without cream
or sugar.

COTTAGE CHEESE-WORKER
is NAMED FOR GEORGIA
Department of Agriculture Sends
Women to Encourage Produc-
tion and the Use of
Meat Substitutes.

Washington, D. C.-The Bureau
of Animal Industry of the United
States Department of Agriculture
has named Miss Eva L. MCGEE, a
district home-demonstration agent of
Augusta, Ca, to encourage in Georgia
the production of cottage cheese on
farms and also to stimulate its use
in homes.
Miss McGee, one of AZ women a
gents named for as many States, is
to cooperate with Federal and State
agricultural and home-demonstration
agents. Miss Madge Reese, formerly
State home-demonstration agent in
Alabama, is the leader in the cottage
cheese work for the Southern States.
The work in Georgia will part of
the Department of Agriculture's ma
tlonal campaign, in cooperation with
the United States Food Administra-
ton, to encourage the use, as we'll
as the production, of cottage cheese
which experiments by the department
have shown is equal in food value to
meat. Cottage cheese can be made
from skim milk or buttermilk, now
largely wasted or fed to animals, and
its extended use is expected to save
large amount of meat which can
be used by the armies and allies of
America.

The Advance in the Spring

1t is a well known fact
that men of courage, men
with Drawn and nerve to
chuck the line" and go
"over-the-top" have rich
red blood coursing through
their veins. The nerves
are fed on the red blood
corpuscles, so when you
feel tired, worn out before
the day is half over, when
pimples show on neck or
face, it's the danger signal,
and it is time to repair the
blood cells.
In the spring is the best
time to take stock of ones
condition. If the blood is
thin and watery, face pale
or pimply, and one is gener-
ally weak, tired and listless,
a spring tonic should be
taken. One that will do the
spring house cleaning, an
old-fashioned herbalremedy
that was used by every
body nearly so years ago,
is still safe and sane be-
cause it contains no alcohol
