tea, sugar, milk, vinegar, pickles, salt, pepper, cinnamon, lard and lard sub stitutes, butter and Oleomargarine, sirup and flavOring extracts. Even with this elaborate selection, and not withstanding the mounting cost of food, the government finds it possible to give the boys in khaki all they can cat for the modest sum of fl and a fraction cents a day. The soldiers get many articles of food, however, that are not included in the standard" list. Supply sergeants are instructed to vary the diet by purchasing eggs, chickens, green vegetables and fresh fruits. This plan is followed in France as wen as in the United States. Under favorable circumstances poultry and fresh vegetables and fruit are served in the frOnt-line trenches.

Proper Way to Keep Honey.

In selling honey as substitute for sugar the retail grocer and his cus- toners may encounter some difficulty through lack of knowledge of storing and handling this product, according to American Food Journal. House wives usually put their honey in the cellar for safekeeping, probably the worst possible place, as honey absOrbS moisture from the atmosphere and will become thin and in time sour. Comb honey kept in a damp place will be hurt in appearance as well as in quality. A practicable rule is to keep honey in any place where salt remains dry. If honey has granulated or can died, put the can containing it in a large vessel holding water no hotter than the hand can be borne in. If the water is too hot, there is danger of spelling the color and ruining the flavor of the honey. The can of honey should be supported on block of wood in the vessel of water, so that the heat from the stove will not be too intense. ;,

In a Tioer's Lair.

In the lair of tiger there are cer- tain terraces, or places under over hanging trees, which are covered with bones, and are evidently spots to which the animal brings it's prey to be de- vOured. On such a terrace one will find the remains of a deer, wild hog, dog, pig, pOrcupine, pangOlin and Oth- CT animals both domestic and wild. A fresh kill shows that with its rasplike tongue the tiger licks off all the hair of its prey before devOuring 1t and the hair will be found in circle around what remains of the kill. The Chinese often raid lair in order to gather up the quills of the pOrcupine and the bony scales Ot the pangOlin which are esteemed for medicinal purposes.-Ex- change.
