SEA MOSS AND IT'S USES

g ga moss or carrageen is not well
~ enough known to any but our New
England friends, who have used and
enjoyed it for years. The whltish sea
weed which has the pleasant tang of
salt water may be gathered freely on
the coast or may be purchased at
stores in various places. A pound
goes long way as substitute for
gelatin, sage and rennet.
or course in its preparation 1t should
be carefully washed In several waters,
until every individual piece is clean.
Tie the moss in piece of cheese
cloth or put into small bag, drop 1t
into the milk and cook for half hour,
or until the sea moss Is well softened.
Remove the moss. add such flayoring
as desired with sugar to sweeten. A
good flavor is orange, almond or cara
mel, while honey Is also good; a
plain unfavored blanc mango served
with maple sIrup is especially deli
cious. A bit of salt, few chopped
almonds with almond extract makes a
dainty dessert.

ROMANCE or WORDS
"LiEUTENANTs

MAYHEM, in old English rec
W ords, we find that the arch,
bishop Of Canterbury is referred
to as "the lieutenant of the pope
and of the king Of England a
vision of the church militant i'm
mediately presents itself; but
this use of the word 'ieftten-
ant" at once the father and the
son of our present-day '1leuten-
anti, is an indication of the
earlier significance Of the word.
Formed from the French
lieu, place, and tenant, hold
ing, lieutenant" means literally
one who holds place, or, figura-
lively. one who exercises author
ity in the absence of his superb
or. With its French spelling
and its French pronunciation,
the word was at first transport
ed bodily across the channel and
introduced into England about
1870. But the English In general,
and the English lower classes in
particular, could not get their
tongues around the liquid sound
Of the first syllable. SO they
made 1t over into "leftn, which
is the reason that "leftenant" is
the accepted pronunciation Of
the word in many branches of
the British army TO this day.
On this side of the water, how
ever, the pronunciation has only
been slightly Americanized, the
lieu" being altered to loo" and
the word itself being spelled as
1t was when originally imported
into England.

EXPANSION OF ElFFEL TOWER
Device Has Shown That the Edifice fs
Susceptible to the Slightest
Change In Temperature.

Some time ago the subdirector
OF the international bureau OF
weights and measures in Paris made
a contrivance that registers the YER
teal expansion and contraction of
the Eitfel tower. To stake at the
foot of the tower the official fas-
tened wire made of iron and
nickel, and incapable of expansion
or shrinkage. He attached the other
end OF the wire to the lever of a
register on the second platform,
about three hundred and eighty
feet above the ground.
The charts from the register
show that the great tower is ex-
tremely susceptible to the slightest
change in temperature. Although
the greatest variation in the height
OF the tower amounts to only a little
over two and one-half inches, the
records Of the register show that a
passing cloud, sudden burst Of
sunshine, OF heavy shower, exert a
marked effect upon the height Of
the structure.
The members of the geographical
service of the army also have
studied the horizontal movements of
the 7,0Oo-ton tower. They find that
even in ninety-mils gale the os-
citations of the summit amount to
scarcely four inches.-Illustrated

Sense sSiiT sIzT
AT CROSS ROADS

ROSS roads are dangerous places
~ In the Great war allied ana Ger
man soldiers alike Stunned all points
where roads crossed. When motol
truck or an ambulance or an ampu
lance wagon neared such point tn'
driver put on full speed and rushed
mast in the direction he had decided tC
follow.
There was no fesltating and waVer
ing backing and filling. This was be
cause 1t was just about as dangerous
TO stand at a cross roads in the comDal
zone as it Is to stand on railroad
track. If you stood long enough al
the cross roads a shell would hit you
If YOU stood long enough on railroad
tracks a train would hit you.
The cross roads of life are just as
dangerous as were the cross roads IN
Flanders and France.
When you come to parting of the
WAYS. make up your mind quickly
which is the right way to go, and go.
Sooner or later you will come to a
situation where you can save yourseif
lot of trouble by departing from your
usual rule of truthfulness and telling
lie.
That is a cross roads.
IF you linger at it, wondering which
way to turn, vacillating between the
two courses, the chances are greater
that you will take the wrong road-the
road of the lie.
Your first impulse will be to take the
course Of truth. You will know it is
the right road. Don't stand at the
cross roads. Go full speed down the
route you know is the right one. Next
time you come to cross roads with
the same signs displayed, it will be
easier to keep right on going.
And if you select the road of truth
you will come to fewer puzzling corners
than you will on the road to lies. 1t
will be much easier to stay on the
right road than to get back to 1t.
Sometimes IL is impossible to get back.
The same thing will be true Of every
road parting which you encounter. To
linger there will be dangerous. To
wabble back and forth between the
two routes will mean that you are
liable to be engulfed in a disastrous
chain Of circumstances before you have
made your move. 1t is just like the
soldier who stands at the cross roads
until shell searches him out and its
explosion destroys him.
The armies shelled all cross roads |
It frequent intervals because they |
znew that somebody was likely to be
here, either because of congested
raffic or because of indecision as to
which way to go.
Chief among your enemies are your
,wn weaknesses and habits. They will
attack you while you are
it the parting Of the ways.
Do not loiter there.

THE CHINA LADY

TN THE toy shop a beautiful china
a lady stood on the shelf. Ia one
arm she carried a bouquet of many
colored flowers and with the hand OF
her other arm she daintily held her
prettily trimmed skirts ready to make
a curtsey.
China lady did not look so very
proud, but she was, for never once
did she deign to glance below her at
the toys on the floor
Her pretty blue eyes were looking
straight ahead and all the floor toys
felt she would never look down to
notice them.
None of them cared very much
about this naughty lady's dlsdainful
air but little French Doll, her pretty
dark eyes flashed as she said to Teddy
Bear and small Rocking Horse. "She
need not feel herself so much above

Teddy Bear did not know just how
to reply, for he was not from across
the water and he knew Rocking
Horse was not imported either
Rocking Horse began to nod his
head and rock fast, shaking his wsvy
name as If he heartily approved of all
that French Doll had said.

after thinking a second, to be frank
about himself, so he said, Il was not

CARPENTER TOOLS
ON THE FARM

Ay farmer, can save many dollar
and great deal Of valuable time by
Keeping at hand a few or the most
common carpenter tools. A saw and
hammer, brace and bits, a plane or
two and few chisels, screw driver,
file, pliers, etc. will save their cost
of purchase in a short time and their
use will form a pleasant deviation
from the every day routine.
An item of equal importance with
the owning Of these tools, is to have
definite place for their keeping.
The best way by far, is to have a
bench with drawer or two, or even
al SHELF where the tools may be
kept and the work done to best ad-
vantage. Such a bench can be made
quite simply: supports made Of 2x4
with a 3x14 plank for top
and shelf or drawer underneath,
will do very well; if fitted with a
simple bench screw it will give Ell
cellent service.
In buying tools care should be
,aken to get good quality. A cheap |
,ool is often worse than useless; to |
ouy such, is money thrown away. The |

low cost Of production. Yet you will
go into hundreds Of dairy barns where
there are no windows where the feed
is crowded through narrow spaces
into cluttered managers, where the
floors are rough and uneven so
that hours of work will not make
them clean because cleanliness is i'm
possible under such conditions.
Very often stock have to be driv-

and this work alone adds to the cost
of the cost of the product in
that such irregulaity always results
