Good Health Based on
Wholesome Food Habits

Good food hapits include more than
leisurely eating, cleanliness and order
in everything that has to do with
food and meals. Equally important
are a liking for all kinds of whole
some foods, even if they have not al
ways been used in the home of neigh
borhood and eating reasonable
amounts without being either greedy
or over-dainty. Every effort should
be made to train children in such
good food habits, urges the United
States department of agriculture. l.
older people have not learned them.
they, too, should try to do so, for
such things are important not only
to health, but also to economy. To
refuse to eat some wholesome dish
simply because it is new may prevent
the use of some very desirable and
economical food. To feel that there
is any virtue in providing more food
than is needed shows poor taste as
we'll as economy.
The health and appearance of the
family make a good test of the whole
someness of the diet. If the members
are strong, we'll developed for their
ages, free from ailments, and full of
energy and ambition, it may safely be
said their food agrees with them. But
if they are listless and ailing, or not
as we'll developed either physically
or mentally as they should be, and il
a competent physician finds that
there is no special disease to account
for these bad symptoms, a mother
may we'll ask herself if the food is
right and if not, how she can made
it so.
In such cases she might, for in
stance, apply for information on food
and diet to her state leader in agri-
culture and home economics and to
the home-economics department OF
her state agricultural college.

The probability Of the Sultan of
Turkeys having to leave CONSTANT
NOBLE to go into Asia Minor has
brought up an interesting question
as to whether or not the departing
ruler of the Turks would be allowed
to take with him the wonderful
"stones of healing" that have been
in the possession, of the sultans OF
Turkey for centuries.
These stones, which are supposed
to be found at rare intervals in the

in a gold casket which is always
locked and hidden away in a steel

Lady Blunt, who was accorded the
privilege by the late sultan of using
two of them for the relief of her
husband who was lying dangerously

found them exceedingly effective.

death, and three doctors who were in
attendance advised an immediate OPP

How American Farms Are
Coming Through With Rye

More acres and more bushels OF rye
were harvested in 1918 than in any
previous year in the history of the
United States.
From 1S49 to 1909 rye production in
the United States was practlcally
stationary. From 1909 to 1918 the
production was almost tripled, the
greatest increase coming in 1917 ana
1918.
Five years ago there was approx
mately, one acre of rye for each TWEEN
tyrone acres of whear in the United
States. In 1918 there was approx
mate1y one acre of rye for each ten
acres of wheat.
The 1918 rye crop was more than
10000, 900 bushels.
The world production of rye
amounts to about one and two-thirds
billion bushels, somewhat less than
half the annual wheat production.
The United States department OF
agriculture thinks it probable, now
that farmers are becoming familiar
with the crop and it's advantages, that
rye will have a permanently larger
place in American agriculture, and
that from an agricultural point of
view there should be a further con-,
siderable increase in production.
The farmer, according to depart
ment of agriculture bulletin on fire
prevention. should study his buildings
and their contents from the point or
view of the fire inspector of the city.

Cooks at Versailles Are in Despair

The cooks Of Versailles have let
loose a wall that has stirred all Paris
to laughter and made many persons
forget the May day riots. 1t seems
that when the German delegates ana

to do what the kaiser 'didn't do-d1ne

made of what further infraction OF

Receiver Kendrick, of Philadelphia.

questionable transaction and, as a
result, he had been indicted and mar
roWly escaped prison. He was out
of work Mr.. Kendrick assisted him
in getting job for the holidays as
watcher or detective in a depart

not take advantage of the crowded
condition of the establishment to
pilfer.
The young man held the job until
we'll along in January. Then he
was released He had made the &C.

Jones did many favors for the
troubled youth and when one day
the man under a cloud came to him
and said he had an opportunity If
he could get to Chicago Of getting
a good position. he lent SIS to him,
the troubled young man being short
that much of his fare.
It was several months later that
Jones get his SIS back win the an
nouncement that the man was do

Jones, and if fortune came to him
he would remember the man who
gave the SIS. t0-.-..
The other day Jones and Kendrick
received a telephone call from the
Bellevue Stratford. They went, and
and met the young man who had
been the store detective some years
ago. He. told remarkable story of
success. 1t was unbelievable almost.
He recalled the promise he had
made to Jones. who, by the way,
had p1odded along without making

And he did.
He placed IN trust $4,000 of stock

Austria is receiving so many threat

his immediate official abdication,
which he has thus far refused, that
the Swiss authorities at the Chateau

him.
Nobody is permitted to enter the
park of the chateau without permits

tradesmen are obliged to deposit their
goods at the lodge. No member of
the one-time reigning family Of Aus

Charles is in constant correspondence
with political friends in Vienna.
