Where little strawberry forks are
served with springs most favored fruit,
these should be utilized to spear each
berry before conveying it to the mouth.
Strawberry forks are used when berries
are served without cream A small

or the regulation sugar bowl may he

Strawberries unhulled. Served this way
each berry Is taken by Its stem-end and
dipped into the little sugar dish before

Strawberries served with cream are
eaten with spoon. although IL the
cream Is whipped or frozen, fork may
be used. Strawberry shortcake is always
eaten with fork. This rule applies
also to strawberry tarts and straw

use a fork for all except semi -lquid
or sauce desserts.

found in California, Oregon and other
states, they are not as numerous as
being rapidly depleted, each year the

Instead he delivered the message
to General Garcia, in the Interior of
Cuba, where Garcia with his little
band of patriots was almost sur
rounded by Spanish forces. Rowan
knew that if the message were inter-
cepted by. the Spaniards he would be
shot or hanged as spy.

and the foe was overcome.
Lieutenant Rowan was cited by Gen.

"This was most perilous under

ism and cool daring that has rarely
been eXcelled in the annals of war

Rowan later was appointed lieuten-

TRACTIvE ROAD RESISTANCE
initial Results Secured Show That In- formation Will Be of Big Value
 to Engineer.

CPrepared by the United States Department
 Of Agriculture.)
 Initial results secured from an in- vestigatiOn of the tractive resistance of roads indicate that information will be secured of great value to the highway engineer and the user of mo tor transport. The investigations are being carried on under the auspices of the advisory board on highway re- search of the national research council with which the bureau of pub lie roads, United States Department of Agriculture, and the Quartermaster corps, United States army are coop erating.
 One phase of the investigation shows that there is a great difference in the power required of the engine when a truck is travelling over different types of surfacing, the amount being more than twice as great on some of the lower types when compared with that on higher types. It is also shown that the power required to overcome the road resistance is not proportional to the speed of the vehicle, and after a certain speed Is reached increases very rapidly.
 The investigation when complete will cover tests with various types of motor vehicles with the load, tire and spring equipment varied on different types of surfacing and at varying speeds. The data will include gasO- line consumption, internal engine re sistance, wind resistance, and road-sur- face resistance.
 When carefully analysed it will aid the highway engineer in determining

STRETCH OF MODEL HIGHWAY
Ideal Section of Lincoln Road Under Construction in Lake County,
 Indiana, Near Chicago.

A stretch of model road, to be known as the ideal section of the Lincoln highway, is under construction in Lake county, Indiana, to the southeast of Chicago.
 Besides a 40-fOot road bed ten inches thick, designed to carry heavy traffic, provisions are made for Identification of the roadside in boulevard fashion. A lighting system is to be installed. The entire cost will range approxi- mately $1O0,OO0 a mile.
 This strip of roadway is centrally located, as far as traffic on the Lincoln highway is concerned, and is intended to serve as a model for the gradual evolution of the entire route as traffic volume increases. The Lincoln High way association will provide the funds required over the usual costs per mile.

If You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have yOu ever stopped to reason why It s that 90 many products that are ex- tenEvely advertised, all at once drop out of G9hk and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative Value almost sells itself, as like Gn ndlez chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are In need of it.
 A prominent druggist says, STake for example Dr. K1mers Swamp Root, . preparatinn I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost eT9y case 1t shows excellent re sulta, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large . sale"
 According Co sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. KiEmers Swamp-Root is due to the fact, @ many people claim, that 1t fulfIls aL most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri- nary troubles and neutrahzes the uric acid which czuses rheumatism.
