France Is Handicapped.

France is necessarily handicapped in
its efforts at economic rehabilitation,
not only by the devastation of some of
its chief industrial centers, but by the
fact that the French, by virtue of their
skill, taste and high civilization, have
specially eXcelfed in the production of
articles of such superior quality that
they rank as Injuries. For these there
will again be demand but for the pres
ent the crying need of the world is for
cheaper and more abundant necessaries

FoCH ENJOYING HOLIDAY.

dressed in loose tweeds and wearing a

The marshal is great lover of hunt

that an exception be made in favor of
Foch, one Of them adding naively that
"as he has rendered slight service to his
country, in Kidding it of the Germans,
he might be allowed to deprive its woods
of few cartridges"
When it became known that Foch was
going to Morlaix, the mayor and city
at once made elaborate plahs
for the reception. They assembled at
the house of the mayor and commenced

certain to involve the United States in
regular war with Mexico.
When Pershing wRs chosen TO com
mand the American forces in France, he
took with him many Of the Drowned and
hardened veterans of his Mexican cam

of the famous first division of the Amer.

Tragedy in Pershing's Family
A terrible tragedy had come into Per.
shings life during his Mexican border
service through the loss of his wife and
three of their little children, who were
burned to death in their home at the
Preside, ip San Francisco, during his
absence. His life became hard and stern:
not towards his soldiers, however, but in
the regimen he imposed upon himself
and in the objects he had marked for
attainment He threw himself into his
work with passion that commanded
success, evidently seeking relief from his
private grief in public service. 1t was
said of him in France that he was never
tired; he could be called upon any hour
out of the "a for consultation or direc-
ton without complaint on his part, in
contrast with some of his famous col.
leagues in the entente armies.
Pershihg believed in teamwork; he
knew that whatever success the Germans
had attained was through their unified
command of the armies of the central
powers. So he was not only willing but
anxious to see the same principle adopt.

league.
1t is possible to substitute sour milk
for sweet milk in practically any
recipe In doing this the acid of the sour
milk should be neutralized by adding a
sufficient quantity Of soda. This amount
Of soda added depends, of course, upon
the acidity of the milk. Ordinarily the
amount needed is about one-quarter of
a level teaspoon of soda to one cupful
of sour milk In addition to this soda,
enough baking powder is needed to
make the mixture light.
This combination of baking powder
with soda means that less soda is used
and a more palatable product results.
How much baking powder is needed
when sour milk is used One fourth of
teaspoonful of soda used with one cup
full sour milk is equal to about one
