Antique in Metropolitan Museum of
Art identified as Portrait Of
Father of History.

Or. Robinson. director of the Metro
polltan Museum of Art, in New York,
has Identified an antique marble bust,
which has been in the museums store
room for 20 or 30 years, us being a
portrait Of Herodotus, "the father OF
history" The marble, which has lain
in dust all these years, will now as
sumo an important place of honor In
the institution.
There are but five known portraits
Of HerodotuS. The New York portrait
bust was originally found nj Benha,
in Lower Egypt, and passed into the
possession of Emil Brugsch Bey, from
whom il was acquired and presented
to the Metropolitan Museum of Arts.
The recognition was based on the re-
semblance of the known portraits ana
the finding of the learned mans name
inscribed upon it. As work of art IL
was not very highly regarded, but as
the sixth known portrait of Herodotus
il assumes new dignity. 1t is also said
to be one of the best portraits extant.

HOW THE SQUIRREL HELPS
Uncle Sam Needs Seeds of Douglas
Fir and Knows Where to
Find Them.

Tree seed can't be bought in large
quantities In The market. To restock
the huge forests which are demolished
every year, Uncle Sam needs the seeds
of the Douglas fir western yellow
pine, Engelmann spruce, lodge pole
pine, not by the pound. but literally
by the ton.
The government needs men, from
two TO six weeks every fall, to gather
seed. When the call goes out, lumber
jacks. college men, hoboes and former
convicts drift into the camps and work
side by side, gathering huge stores of
the precious seeds. Through expert
ence they have found that their rich
est sources are the cunningly hidden
squirrel boards. The squirrel is canny /;
he always picks the very best of cones
for his winter store.-The Nations

RETAINING FLAVOR IN MEAT
Sometimes Partially Accomplished by
Soaring Exterior, Preventing
Escape of Juices.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
1t Is extremely difficult to retain the
havor-giving qualities in a piece of
meat so tough as to require prolonged
cooking. 1t is sometimes partially &C.
complished by first soaring the ex.
terror of the meat and thus preventing
the escape Of the juices. Another way
is to let them escape into the gravy
which is served with the meat itself,
illustrated in the following recipe for
round steak on biscuits:
Cut round steai- into pieces abou'
one-half inch square, cover with water
and cook at a temperature just below
the boiling point until it is tender, OF
boil for five minutes, and while still
hot put into fireless cooker and leave
it for five hours. Thicker the gravy
with flour mixed with water, allowing
two level tablespoonfuls to cup of
water. Pour the meat and gravy over
split baking-powder biscuits, so baked
that they have large amount of
crust.

These sharp crystals tear and scratch
tnG delicate urinary channels causing
excruciating pain and set up irrita-
lions which may cause premature de-
generation and often do turn into
deadly Bright's Disease.
One of the first warnings of slug
Eish kidney action is pain or stiffness
