WORDS Of WISE MEN

Moderate enjoyment is real enjoyment Everybody's business issnobody's bust Rejoice to see others enjoying them selves.
 Truth is plain-spoken. talsehood What you enjoy is yours and that Is all.
 Wise men err. but fools persevers in error.
 Eternity is represented in @ moment of time-
 A clear statement is half the arsu- ment-
 If you would amend men, begin with yourself.
 Amusement is as necessary to man aa labor.
 If you have wronged another or your self, make ameszds
 What cometh from the heart goes to the heart
 Friends and enemies are both useful to a wise man.
 An enemy in front, an enemy in the rear-go ahead.

 plenty of Ieafy vegetables. We are also told that there are many cases of malnutrition even among people who think they live well, for they are neg iectful of the ordinary greens. and often overlook the importance of dairy pro- ducts. Acting upon the ideas suggested by those who are favoring a green diet, We offer the following recipes, which should measure up to their standards of what leaf and dairy diet should con- tain:
 Cabbage Cooked in Milk.
 Select a fiCm young cabbage. After removing the loose outer leaves cut the cabbage in two and cut out the hard heart. Pull the leaves apart and let stand in salted water for twenty min utes to remove any insects and to crisp the leaves. Drain and put in ean enamel saucepan with pint of milk and a cup full of boiling water. Cover for five min utes until the leaves steam down. Then uncover and boil for twenty minutes to half an hour, until the leaves are tender. DCain, add pepper, salt and a little sugar
