Montana Indian Offers a Plan for the Manufacture of Gigantic
 Crater Spectacle.

Washington, D. c. March 29.-Na- ture was so neglectful that she failed to provide Glacier National Park with a volcano, so Willy Wimpus, a progressive Blackfoot Indian half breed, who had his primitive ideas stimulated at Carlysle, wants to manu- facture one He argues with the Bureau of National Parks that his plan will divert a lot of European tourist travel and be big boon to his native state, Montana.
 Mir. Wimpus would remedy natures oversight by making volcano that would rival Vesuvius or any of the other Old World Smokers
 The plan to make this artificial volcano involves the piping of natural gas from the Shelby oil field, 60 miles to Chief Mountain in Glacer National Park, the sinking of a shaft in this touching it off"
 Then--presto, change--a gigantic -sputtering spectacle that would furnish Montanas greatest continuous show.

~ HEESE is undoubtedly n OF
the most valuable of foods
and, as It is rich in protein. It
may well take the place of meat In
its raw state cheese is not easily nor
quickly digested, but It contains an
important medium in increasing the
digestbility Of other foods.
This Is explained as follows: One
Of the chief properties of cheese de-
composes readily. and on reaching
the stomach 1t causes change, thus
squirting on the process Of digestion
For this reason raw cheese is best
served at the close of a meal.
Cheese contains to the pound far
more nutriment than meat, and phos-
phate Of lime, which is very valuable
ns a bone-builder and as a nerve
restorative, forms an important con-
stItuent of cheese. In foreign coun-
tries cheese is used to Q far greater
extent than in America, and sturdy
out-of-door workers and persons ac-
customed to strenuous exercise in
the fresh air use 1t as one Of their
staple articles OF diet.
In combination with eggs, milk
and breadcrumbs or cereal products
It will furnish an infite variety OF
appetizing. substantial dishes at very
small expense. Any Of these are
suitable as the main course for the
home luncheon Or supper.
Tho provident housewife will nnd
that a jar of grated American cheese
standing ready on the pantry shelf
is indeed a friend in need" and II
may be added to many dishes, in
creasing the food value and improv-
ing their flavor. It is excellent
with many soups and should be
sprinkled or stirred in while the SOUP
is very hot, so that its solubility may
be assured. When used in au gratir
dishes It is generally best to mix
with grated dried breadcrumbs. as in
this way it will form a crisp, brown
crust. instead of resolving itself into
a leathery, stringy covering.
Cream Cheese and Pepper Salad.
Mash q cream cheese to a paste

chopped Maraschino cherries, three

THB time was when ones under
things we're merely incident
ais; when n selected lin
gerie with an y to utility and
never thought of considering them IN

All of which is most delightfully."-
changed. The fashionable woman
of today spends quite as much care
on the details OF her exquisite
lingerie as she does upon her gowns.
For she has learned that the latter

Our grandmother, of course, would

But you will be surprised to find
how long they will wear. and how
splendidly they will launder. Crepe
de chine lingerie has made a place
for itself which nothing will ever
Danish. And, while there is a decld-
ed trend back to the all-whito under
garments, many Of the newest and
smartest models are OF the most cx-
otto colorings.
There are some fascinating new
pastel tints which rejoice in such
pleasing ame as clover, blue jay,
star and honeysuckIe pink. But
there is as well a EOodly assortment
of street shades and such service
able colors as gray. beige and French
blue. Gray is a bit unusual in
lingerie, but If you have seen it in
some Of the lovely new things you
know how charming It may be. 1t
IS especially desirable in'cogtume

opcd in satin back crepe.
