The Problem of Food.

The man or woman who, lives on weIl-cooked food has more ambition and more strength to do the worth while things In life than the one who eats irregularly and amid unpleasant surroundings, says Good Housekeep- ing. It isn't necessary that large amounts of money should be spent for food, but 1t Is essential that thought and care should be mixed with every menu. Some day those who now look upon the preparation of meals as irk- some may get the new vision-the big Idea that food and progress are linked together, and that without vision of the true place of good food in our daily lives from childhood to old age, the people perish!

PrsssryIna Spiders, Webs.

Amateur entOmologlsts will be inter- ested in a suggestion made by Doctor Lutz for the preservation of all kinds of spiders webs, says the Independent. The webs should be sprayed from an atomizer with artists ,shellac, and then, if they are of the ordinary geo. metric form. pressed carefully against q glass plate, the supporting strands being at the same time severed. After the shellac Is dried, the plates carry Ing the webs can be stored away in a cabinet. Even dome-shaped webs may be preserved in their original form by spraying them with shellac and then allowing them to dry before re- mOval from their supports. Many spiders webs are very beautiful, and all have interesting characteristics of the species to which they belong.

Ancient Industry.

Knapping of flint may be the oldest living industry. It certainly must be the one industry carried on now near ly In the manner the American Indian fashioned his spear and arrOwheads, as prehistoric man must have worked to produce his knives and axes. There have been some improvements in the methods of knapping, according to one authority, who writes: "The most diff flcult process Is the flaking, or driving off of flakes, at a single blow of a given width and thickness, with two ribs running down them. In this the Brandon knappers excel the prehis- tOrIc workman, but the process Is so delicate that few attain to great pro tlcIency." Even today the knappers' tools consist of three simple forms of hammer and chIsel.

Wherever there is fire of any con siderable size there is sure to be d. rect profit to the government on burned money. The San Francisco and Baltimore fires were directly profitable to the government. When the Titanic went to the bottom of the Atlantic un- known amounts of currency went down with it. There. was American paper money in the strong-boxes of the Lusitanla when the German sub marine sunk her and there was AIneri- can paper money in the pockets of most of the people on board. The same was true of many ships that went to the bottom during the World war. All of this that remains unre- covered is profit to the government.
