There is really no reason why
men or women with thin, watery
blood and consequent poor health
should remain in that unfortunate
condition. Thin, nervous, run
down, tired people never get much
happiness out of life.
Men and women withathe bloom
of health in their cheeks, a cheer
full, sunny disposition and an at
tractive personality are. the folks
who get the most of life's enjoy
ment, pleasures and success.
GUIDES Peto-Mangan furnishes
thin, watery blood with the nec-
essary nourishment to enrich it,
enabling it to supply energy, vi
tality, and strength to every part
of the body.
Physicians recommend Guides
Peto-Mangan to patients suffer-
ing from anemia because its bene-
ficial and lasting qualities are
we'll known, to the medi&al profess
sion. i

sell. There are people who have

sell. There are people who have
to buy meat. If the people who
have to buy the meat will buy the
hogs that are for sale, and kill
this meat and cure it by one of the
cures given below Cor any other
cure that is good) several thous-
and dollars will be saved here at
home. There is no sense or reason
for us sending our finished hogs
to the north and give them away,
when our neighbors are paying
three times the price for the meat
back.
Cure No. 1.
For each 100 pounds of meat
use: z pounds Of salt, 2 1-2
pounds of sugar, 2 ounces of salt
petre. Mix all ingredients thor
oughly, then rub one third of the
quantity of the mixture on the
meat and pack it away in box
or on a table. The third day break
bulk and rub half the remaining
mixture on the meat and repack.
Break bulk the seventh day and
rub the remainder of the MKT
ure on the meat and pack the
meat to cure, allow one day and
half cure for each pound Of
meat average Ga 2O-pound ham
would require 80 days to cure.
After the meat has cured, wash
each piece in luke warm water
and hang in the smoke house.
(See Bulletin No. 913 for direc-
tions for smoking.)
Cure No. 2.
For each 100 pounds Of meat
use: 8 pounds Of salt, 8 pounds
of warm syrup, 2 ounces Of salt
petre, 3 ounces Of black pepper. 2
ounces red pepper, all ingredi-
ents should be mixed thoroughly.
Rub each piece Of meat thorough
" with the mixture and pack the
meat in bulk on clean floor or
table or in q container. In ten
days break bulk and repack meat.
This is done to make the cure
more uniform and to prevent
souring. Allow the meat to cure
five or six weeks.
Let every good citizen do all
that he can to encourage this
move and thus reduce the high
cost Of living.

give presents and have a big fami-
~ dinner, is on New Years day.
The children of Norway, Sweden
and Denmark have the longest
Christmas celebration of all, for
they begin to celebrate at six
O'Clock on December "a, and keep
1t up until January 7. During this
time, no one can enter a home
! without eating and drinking there,
or bad luck will attend that house
all during the year. Christmas
eve is the special gala night. Ev-
cry family, from the richest to the
poorest, has a goose, and it's aeb-
leskiver, which doesn't sound one
bit good, but is really their name
for very good desert. They have
tree, too, great, big, beautiful
tree, with all colors of lights and
gay gifts, which stands in the mid
die Of the room. Everyone joins
hands and dances around this tree
and the evening is spent in laugh
ter and singing. Then the gifts
are given by Julenisse, which is
the name those children give to
Santa Claus.
The Christmas tree is kept hid
den from the Russian children for
quite a while. Then some doors
are opened and the children all
rush in, to find the wonderful tree,
there, all alight. When the candles
are burned down, the children get
to blow them out. Then with mer-
ry shouts, the tree is torn to pieces
and the trinkets and presents are
divided among the@ children. The
feast follows with all sorts of cold
meats and cakes which last is
crammed full of raisins and nuts.
Then on Christmas day, comes an
other feast, and this one is not
complete without a eat little roast
pig.
So We see that in almost all the
foreign communities of our big
cities, these different customs are
being observed to remember the
of the greatest Friend of
every one in the whole, wide world |

Christmas in Other Lands

When we sat down to the good
| old-fashioned dinner on Christmas
day-turkey, cranberry sauce,
pumpkin pie and all-did any of
US think how different the day
seemed to the adopted Americans
all over the country? Many chill
dren, born in other lands, and
whose parents have been citizens
OF the United States for just a few
years, celebrate their Christmas
day in way that is very much
like their parents used to cele-
brate it in the country to which
they formerly owed allegiance.
Some of their customs are very
beautiful.
The children of Poland never sit
down to dinner on Christmas eve
till the evening star is high in the
sky, which reminds them clearly
of the first Christmas night. From
underneath the dazzling white
table cloth, bits of straw will also
be visible in remembrance of that
first manger cradle, and at every
Polish table vacant chair will be
placed for the little child who was
born on that first Christmas night.
The Americans whose parents
came from Bohemia also make
elaborate preparations. They
build little Bethlehems-or real
representations of the Nativity
with great care carving, painting
and dressing up little figures to
look like Mary, Joseph and the
baby, that night in Bethlehem.
Sometimes they put them on tiny
stage. Then the children go
around singing Christmas carols
and receive apples and cake from
the houses where they sing. These
singers are usually headed by
three children dressed as the
three kings from the East who
mark every house where they sing
with three crosses.
Our brothers and sisters of Italy
gather on Christmas eve around
the Presepio, which is carving in
wood or stone of the Holy Family, |
and worship there In southern
Italy, there are shrines outside of |
the houses that have Presepios. A
bagpiper, dressed in all sorts of |
gay clothes, goes around from |
shrine to shrine playing old Christ
mas tunes, followed by a host of |

tality.
The boys games and Stunts"
were especially well attended and
were very interesting, as the sides
were so evenly matched in some of
them, that the outcome depended on
good and speedy playing.
The calendar exhibit in the Bows
department also aroused a good
deal of interest Three walls of
one room were almost hidden by
calendars. These calendars were
collected by the boys and most of
them represent Richmond firms.
Raymond French and Ralph An
derson received prizes for collect
ing the most and the best calen-
dars.

A Little Hero

| Inc DOyS VI the WeStVllle Scn0Ol
were working for a prize, that
would delight the heart Of any
American boy, large American
nag. The prize was to be given
to the boy that would prove the
best soldier in the next few months.
Ramon, a little Mexican boy
would do most anything to prove
his loyalty for that flag There
were just four more days until the
great day. The boys were grouped
together, discussing the much-talk-
| ed of subject.
I'm sure Charles will get it. He
has grandfather that is Grand
Army man and Charles has been
wearing his badge all week." said
one of the boys.
Ramon wished that he had a
grandfather that was a Grand Army
man. But his father and grand
father were both dead.
Just then strong blast of wind
broke the slender cord which held
the flag. 1t went whirling away
and caught in the topmost branch
OF large oak tree. The boys stood
breathless.
Without moments hesitation
Ramon was UP the tree like
flash. Balancing himself on a
small branch he grasped the flag.
Wrapping it in his coat he began to
descend the tree, then he stepped
on frail branch and went crash
ing through space landing on his
left arm. He was picked UP by
the teacher and they took him to
the village doctor, who found out
his arm was broken, and carefully
set it.
On Friday he was able to be back
to school, although he still carried
his arm in sling. The school was
assembled. Everybody sat breath.
less. The president arose.
Boys, it has been a difficult
question to decide, but we have at
last decided, that none can be a
better soldier than the one who al
ways keeps the old flag flying. Will
Ramon come and receive his
prize?"
Amid the applause that followed
Ramon came forth and got his flag.
No prouder boy ever left that school
than our little Mexican friend that
evening. And Old Glory never flew
more proudly than she did from
his humble cottage. Isabelle

Nesu Work for
Red Cross Juniors

War is over, but need for serv.
ice, such as the Red Cross gives
Is in no way lessened. The Red
Cross has great deal OF work to
do, and wants to keep the junior
patriots active. So from making
comfort pillows, knitting things for
soldiers and sailors, and making
bandages, Juniors will turn to the
making of clothes for the refugees.
Now these poor little children
overseas need all kinds of clothing
and no one kind is more important
than another. A stocking Is just as
badly needed as a dress-so the
work done by all the Juniors will
be equally desired.
The girls of the High school and
the Junior High school can make
the little sateen dresses; the young
er children can make other things.
Every child from the fifth grade up
could mend and patch stockings
especially if he knew that some
other little child just like him
would have to go barefoot in the
cold and snow (Which means freez-
ing, and perhaps death) if he did
not mend it; couldn't he
Then there will be knitting, too.

and girls prefer long knitted scarfs
to jacket or sweater, and some

More definite announcements in
regard to extending the Junior Red
Cross work will be made later.

director of the Bureau of Junior
Membership Of the Red Cross, said
recently:
