VITAMINES
NECESSARY TO
HUMAN LIFE
Our System Demands q
Balance Ration of These
MYSTERIOUS Elements

Vitamines are known to be real
things and indispensable parts OF
our daily food. yet no person has
ever set eyes on one.
Apparently, there has never
been given a better definition of
those mysterious elements than
given by a learned scientist, who
recently said:
/ "Vitamines are to food what our
souls are to u bodies. They are
there. They do things. But we can
not see them"
Ever since creation man ha-
been eating vitamines, but didn't
realize it until very recent years,
The study of vitamines has become
important because, through know
ledge of them, many horrible dis
eases 7 being cured.
Scientists agreed that the invis-
lille vitamines supply a certain
need of the body that is necessary
to life itself. But tnev disagree Oh
Just what that need is.
Many agreed that vitamineS sup
ply the body with certain necess-
airy chemical units which the body
is unable to manufacture. Others
regard them as stimulatorS, as
they seem to exert a stimulating
influence upon the various activi-
ties of the body. Still others have
other opinions, and in the end the
general public regards all their
theories as only intelligent guess
work.
There are three kinds of vita
mines, F~at-solublc A. Water-Sol-
uble B, ard Water-soluble c.
A is found mainly in milk, but
ter fat, e~rs, spinach, carrotc,
sweet potatoes. kidney fat, cod
liver oil, yellow corn and tomatoes.
B is mostly confined to yeast,
wheat germs, and milk.
C is contained mostly in citrouS
fruits, such as oranges, lines and
lemons, fresh cabbage. tomatoes,
onions. green apples. lettuce, and
green peas. This data, of course,
is limited. as no full tables have
been prepared up to the present
time.
Anyone whose regular diet cor
tains a good balance of A, B and
c vitamines is said to be pretty
sure of GOOD health. ONLY one or
two Of them is not sufficient.
Lack of one f. the three is
known to have produced scurvy.
beri-beri, rickets, pellagra, and
even blindness.
Any persons who have the adj
vantage of an all-winter SUNNY of
garden and orchard fruits and veg
atables containing the proper Wit
amineS, should remember that sci
ence has been able to offer vita
mines in condensed form 50 that
they may be easily eaten to sup
plement regular foods.

TUo simple home tests
Low Melting Point
Easy DigestibiIitYl

into half a glass Of lukewarm
water drop a small lump each of
Crisco and any other fat. With
a spoon gradually add hot water
until Crisco melts. You will find
that few other fats melt at this
point. Food authorities say that
an easily digested fat should melt
near body heat-oS 2i5 degrees.
Crisco, you will find, melts even
below this temperature. 1t melts
at 81 degrees. (This test does not
necessarily condemn the digesti-
bility Of the other fat, but it will
aid you to establish Crisco's fine
digestibility.)

Put into separate pans equal
amounts of Crisco and any other
fat. Heat slowly for eight minutes
or until they reach a temperature
where bread crumb browns in

DECENT school investigations in
N vest mothers cooking with
new Importance.
Thousands of boys and girls in many
different schools have recently been
examined under the direction Of nutri-

school children were found to be under

them were from prosperous families.

ence of talking to hundreds of mothers
in their own homes.
They commended Crisco generously
for it's delicious results in cake-mak-
ing, in pie-baking and in frying. A
remark often heard was: "Crisco brings
out the natural flavors of foods" But
we were disappointed to find that many
women had overlooked the great i'm
portance of digestibiiity.
Women, after all, arc the real Gus
todians of tho health of their husbands
and children. They feel this high re-
sponsibility and are glad (once they
appreciate the digestibility of Crisco
foods) to pay the few extra cents in
volved in an average weeks baking and
frying. Thoughtful mothers would no
more deliberately choose cheap indi-
gestible shortening than they would
deliberately choose inferior milk.
Your grocer, if he is modern gro
Ger, will sell you Crisco. He will give
you, too, further interesting facts about
Crisco's digestibility.

HELPING TO SOLVE QUESTION
PRESIDENT MARTIN TELLS COM
MITTEE COMPANY is READY
TO NEGOTIATE ANEW.
Martin Submits Estimates for Com
pletins Wilson Dam to Senate
Agricultural Committee.

Washington. - Thomas w. Martin,
president of the Alabama Power Co.,
testified before the senate agricultu-
raj committee, that the company
would "be glad and willing" to enter
into new negotiations with the gov.
ernment for the purpose of working
out a policy for the development Of
the Muscle Shoals, Ala, power pro-
jects.
Mr.. Martins statement was made
in answer to a question by Senator
Kendrick, democrat, Wyoming, as to
whether the company officials would
be willing to "sit down with the gov
ernment' plan value for the prop
ertiesS they were interested in and
then guarantee 100000 horsepower
as an income to the government
on the investment it had already
made.
I'VE naturally would be interested
in trying to solve this question" Mr..
Martin replied.
Senator Kendrick said he had not
lost faith in the government, adding
that he did not want it to lose pos
session Of the valuable properties at
Muscle Shoals. He explained that a
physical valuation Of the plants could
ro determined, the power company
agreeing to pay 80 or 80 per cent Of
their present value and to take over
their operation in way which would
permit the government to regain pos
session in an emergency.
Senator Norris of Nebraska, chair
man Of the committee. invited Mr..
Martin to give his opinion Of the bill
introduced in the senate proposing
the creation of a federal chemical
corporation" for Muscle Shoals de-
velcpment.
81 can only say" Mr.. Martin said,
that we would be very glad to CO.
operate with any plan the government
puts out" He expressed the belief
that the power company could coop
crate advantageously with the cor
poration in the distribution Of power
throughout the country surrounding
Muscle Shoals.
Estimates for completing the VIII
son dam, at Muscle Shoals. for ap-
proximately s1S,S54.OOO, were submit
ted to the senate agricultural commit
tee by Mr.. Martin. The estimates
we're prepared by engineers OF the
power company, who computed the
cost at s4.323.0O0 less than those
fixed by Col. w. ]. Barren, army en-
gineer in charge of the Muscle Shoals
district, when he appeared before the
committee.

Additional Tax Levy Necessary.

Washington.-Levy Of additional
taxes probably will be necessary to
meet the deficit Of more than $3.50 ,O0O,-
900 forecast for the fiscal year Of 1923
by Secretary Mellon, it was said at the
treasury.
High officials Of the treasury, dis
cussing the expected deficit, said that
no consideration had yet been given
to means Of meeting of the lack Of
funds but that it was apparent that
the deficit would probably have to be
raised by taxation, as the government
did not have anything to SELL"
Whether the deficit would run as
high as half billion dollars, as esti-
mated by some treasury officials,
could not be accurately determined at
this time, it was said, as the various
contingent items Of revenue and e1-
penditures taken into consideration in
figuring the finances for the coming
fiscal year made an accurate determi-
nation of the expected deficit impos-
sible. Officials asserted, however, a
considerable deficit was certain.

Committee Favors Loan to Liberia.

Washington.-By vote of 13 to g.,
the house ways and means committee
favorably reported the Fordney reso-
luton authorizing a loan Of $5,O00,0OO
to the republic of Liberia.
The credit was first authorized in
1918 after Liberia entered the war on
the side Of the Allies, but was never
put through. Secretary Hughes, ap-
pearing before the committee, urged
that the resolution be adopted by Con-
gress "as a matter OF national honor"
and denied that the legislation had
been advocated by American banking
interests, who, he said, held only a
fraction OF outstanding Liberian bonds.
