GOVERN MENT WARNS
AGAINST SACCHARIN
Use of Substance in Place OF
Sugar Is Condemned.
Many Housewives Do Not Understand
That Drug Is Serious Menace to
Healfh-Majority of States
Prohibit Its Use.

The use of saccharin in place of
sugar, which many housewives are
being tempted to resort to in these
days Of sugar shortage, may involve
menace to the health, and therefore
is to be condemned, according to spe-
cialists in the bureau of chemistry of
the United States department of ag-
riculture. In most cases housewives
have turned to this substance In their
emergency because they do not under
stand that saccharin is harmful
drug; to consider it harmless. health
full substitute for sugar is absolutely
false, say the governments chemists.
The department of agriculture has
received a number OF inquiries from
housewives concerning the properties
of saccharin, and In every case 1t has
answered by condemning the use of
the drug for cooking purposes. 1t
calls attention to the fact that the bu-
reau of chemistry is now aiding In the
prosecution of large st. Louis con-
Germ, which makes saccharin, for viola
ton of the Food and Drug act.

of sugar and create demand for sac

deavors to capitalize the public's lack
of knowledge OF the properties of this
substance. and the bureau of chemistry
feels called upon to reiterate the
warnings which 1t has given repeated

his testimony before a subcommittee
OF the senate's committee on agricul'
ture on this same subject, as showing

MISSOURI ELDER
DEF|ES H. c. OF |.
GOES ON THE THEORY THAT THE
LORD Will PROVIDE FOR

REV. EDWARDS SPEAKS MIND
Depends on No Salary Himself, But
Takes Only the Contributions
Of His Followers.

Mncon, Mo.-"When hear of
preacher striking or quitting bis job
on account of the high cost of living
and his inability to make both ends
meet, put II down that the preacher
has missed his calling and doesn't be-
dieve what he's been attempting to
preach. II he did he would know the
Lord will take care of him. The Lord
knows all about the high cost of living
and he doesn't intend that anything
that shall stop his work, The men who
know He will take care of them and
stay on the job are the ones He wants"
Thus does Elder G. +. Edwards,
pastor of the Primitive Baptist
churches at Mount Moriah, Sullivan
county; Little Zion, Macon county,
and Mount Tabor, in Knox county, an
swer statement from st. Louis that
"a great many Baptist churches in Mis-
'souri had been compelled to curtail
services because of shortage Of
preachers. The dispatch said this was
due TO the. larger salaries obtainable
In other professions"
"1'he Bible teaches that the Lord
will provide for those He has called
upon to do His work." Elder Edwards
went on.

Dish When

prepared by the United States Depart
meht of Agrculture)
There is no one thing that would
make easier the farm woman's work
than to have water power in the house.
The nature of her duties demands IN
early rising and late retiring; but
the countless steps In carrying water
and emptying water; carrying parings
and vegetables and unused fruits to
the pals for the pigs; carrying many
times day fresh water for the fowls;
carrying, heating, emptying tubs for
the bath, for The laundry. for the cook
ing, canning, and preserving, could be
lessened If her home had running wa
ter in it. Give her water and she can
work out the rest of her problems.
Her garden, her orchards, her fowls,
her dairy, her lawn, fill up hours which
city people do not need to use. She
will have more time for reading and
be less of drudge If she can but
have perfected system of water
works.
Several years ago the department
of agriculture sent out an inquiry to
thousands of farm women asking what
their homes most needed. One Of
the letters in reply contained the
quoted extract, and In 1t Is voiced
the thought found In hundreds of
other letters.
An adequate water supply Is need
ed even more by the farm woman
than by her city sister, but because
this convenience and necessity must
come In the country through individual
effort rather than municipal. few farm
homes have 1t. In survey made In
1918 in 90 northern states it was found
that but 33 per cent Of the farm homes
had running water in them. Lack of
knowledge as to what water system to
install rather than lack Of means in
many homes is the reason why the
women doing the work in it are still
pumping and carrying water.
Kinds of Systems.
The water system on the farm home
may be simple or elaborate, according
to the investment the owner Is able
to make, United States department of
agriculture rural engineers say. For
country-home water system, the wa.
ter may be raised by natural flow, hy-
