School Superintendent Learned That

The superintendent of schools In a
small Indiana town recently persuaded
the school board to revoke Its ruling
to employ only single women as teach

at which he called he tried to joke
the young teachers. Now you'll all

Have any of you been getting any
proposals since the ruling was
passed."
Accidentally his eyes happened to
meet those Of the young teacher in

addressed to her and blushingly an

Three methods can be employed: y,
/. Softening the water BY the ad-
dftion Of a pinch Of soda to increase
it's solvent action. That is often done
in the cooking Of cabbage.
2. Changing the water frequently
as In boiling onions.
8. Exposing a large surface TO the
solvent action of the water, as III
slicing turnips.
BY employing any of these methods
the undesirable flavor Is reduced ana

The third class--the starchy vege-
tables-require thorough cooking In
order to be easily digested. POTATOES
should be soft and mealy all through
and rice should be cooked until tne
half-cooked grain langthwise has dis

are insipid in flavor and, therefore.
need either a high temperature. 10

sess or combination with some more
sayory food, such as tomato, meat,
gravy, cheese or onion juice.
Cooking vegetables with a small
piece of meat gives an agreeable
variation In flavor and the dish makes
a good substitute for the usual meat.
Tomatoes may be stuffed with little
minced meat. green string beans or
cabbage cooked with salt pork OF
onions baked with slices OF bacon.
Do not cook leftover meats ana
vegetables a second time; use them IN
salads. An adept may add much 70

To Get Best From Vegetables Cooked
in Usual Way.
Many vegetables that are poor in
nutritive value, that contain little
protein and when burned; ~ the body
yield no great amount of.sheat, are
nevertheless essential to tAs~hoiesome
diet because of their flavor and the
organic salts and acids that their
juices contain. For skillful cookery
vegetables may be divided into three
classes - sweet-juiced. strong-juiced
and starchy. Sweetjuiced vegetables
are all those which have q flavor
that you enjoy and wish to develop
and enhance by methods. Of cooking.
1t is fundamental rule that the
higher the temperature applied in
cooking any article of food the more
pronounced will be the favor Of the
food The average temperature en-
ployed in baking is about $50 degrees
Fahrenheit. but that of boiling water
Is only 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Hence If you enjoy the favor. let US
say. of beets, tomatoes or onions try
baking them. Tomatoes can be baked
in fififteen minutes. Beets and onions
require about as long as potatoes OF
the same size.
Spinach. another sweet-juiced vege-
table, should be cooked in as much
water only as clings to the leaves
after washing it. The spinach should
be allowed to absorb this water and
none should be drained of. The best
way to cook cauliflower. carrots,
green corn, squash and asparagus Is
to steam them This avoids wasting
any juices. A little sugar added just
before taking the vegetables from
the fire is more effective than
larger amount put in earlier in the
process. Cucumbers divided into quar-
ters lengthwise. steamed and served
In a cream sauce, are delicacy TIN
flavor of which is hard to improve
upon. Peas and many other sweet
juiced vegetables can be cooked In

Warding Oh Old Age.

Many. many things bring on old age
too many, Of course, to consider in so
short a space as this. Mental and
physical slugEishness, overindulgence.
not enough fresh air. Indigestion. These
are few of the things that bring old
age before it's time-if old age may be
said to have "time' when it should
come.
One successful exponent of youth
prolonged into the eighth decade says
that muscular activity is the whole Sc
cret Of preventing old age-and of all
have read on this subject, this seems
to ME the most logical remark. and
much simpler than transferring monkey
glands!
Old age is a breaking down Of It's
sues, elimination ceases to be as effec-
tive or as great, the system literally
clogs with matter that chokes 1t up.
Muscular activity will break up these
deposits, will stimulate the body's sys-
tenn of elimination OF waste.
Be active! II you have your own
housework to do. be glad Of the exer-
else it gives you. And learn to do 1t
so you make an exercise out of it, not
a burden.
II you can't eat rich. fancy dishes. be
glad Of that. too-for plain foods II we'll

are as nourishing. Too much nourish-
ment means that something Is going to
clog up the system; II means extra work
in digesting and eliminating foods.
If you haven't everything you want.
be particularly glad of that-for then
you will be trying daily to attain some
objcct-and that is one Of the many
secrets of keeping young.

JURORS AND TRIAL LAWYERS
Men Who Render the Verdict Said to
Have a Distinct Influence
Over the Counsel.

Juries differ widely. Charles kus-
sell used to say, for instance, that
there was qll the difference IN the
world between English and Irish
iuries, remarks the Manchester (Eng)
Guardian. Irish juries enjoyed the
fun and the drama Of trial; they
entered into it all and appreciated the
cut and thrust; whereas English
juries were concerned more with won
derint how soon they would he re-
leased.
But there is a characteristic COM
mon to all juries. They have quite us
much influence, though in a different
way, over counsel as counsel! have
over them. One Of the greatest OF
advocates, Scarlet, Lord Abinger, de-
clared that his success was due chiefly
to the rule he made Of selecting one
particular juryman, not necessarily the
foreman, and addressing the argument
as if to him personally. He would
then work away till he felt that he
had convinced this man and could re-
~ Oh him when the verdict was being
considered.
