Sauce is used to create an appetite or

digestion you are certain to relish your

PANCAKES PAST AND PRESENT
Comparison Made That Is by No Means
FIattering to the Delicaey
Today.

The pancake of our fathers was a
noble circular structure, spreading it's
wrinkled suburbs to the edge of the
plate where the potter had wisely pro-
yided terraces. The radius must have
been all of three inches. Within the
area, duly buttered and sweetened, was
gustatory poetry, such glory and won
der and delight and smacking SAVIOR
that the hired man, facing the break
fast table, ceased altogether to grumble
over fate that got him out of bed be-
fore dawn. Appetites in the good old
days were magnificent institutions, the
finest products of open-air living and
service at the plow handles. But for
all these grand proportions, no one
could eat more than eight or ten pam
cakes at a sitting. The things were
filling. They took up room like good
farm horse in his stall. At quarter
past the zero hour everyone at the
table cried Enough" even the hired
man. The pancake Of our fathers was
no fluffy affair, after the manner Of
our modern desserts, that made man
ask what he'd eaten after he'd eaten
it. In contest between neighbors in
a Long Island village some time ago,
native consumed 70 pancakes, so
called. The incident adds to the sorry
evidence that this is a decadent age.
It is proof that the pancake Of the
day is some miserable travesty Of the
honest, whole-souled pancake of
blessed tradition.-Toledo Blade.

INSOMNIA CAN BE BANISHED
Trouble Is, With Too Many of Us,
That the Prescription" Is
Hard to Take.

There is a cure for insomnia, but It
Is likely to be something awful-a ten
mile walk in the country or saving
wood for four hours. One has to give
up all other activities, it seems, when
lone ''rassles it out" with insomnia.
Nobody has time for saving wood
for four hours except deposed Euro
pean monarchs-favored ones Of earth
whom even a revolution gives leisure.
Theodore Roosevelt, who enjoyed 80
amply all that the world had to give,
cut down trees for purposes Of bodily
invigoration; but then he had the trees
to cut down; so also, Gladstone.
Hard, physical labor these great
ones considered necessary for their
well-being; and it is thoroughly estab-
lished that 1t is the best lure Of sleep,
"balmy sleep, tired natures sweet re-
storer." The point in that quotation
is that one has to be tired; not tired
in the cares that infest the day, but
tired in the legs, arms and dorsal
muscles. One can chase away insom-
mia If one gives his undivided atten-
ton to it. That's the difieulty-St.
louis Globe-Democrat.

The unaaInIy EIamInae.

The famingo, so beautiful In color-
ing and graceful in flight, is not espe-
cially beautiful in build. In shape 1t
is midway between a goose and
stork, ranging, when full-grQwn be-
tween 8 and 61a feet in height. Its
bumped body is supported on legs
amazingly long and thin, while its
slender neck curves upwards Like a
big letter S, and ends in small head
with a great fiat, down-curying beak.
The lower part Of this beak forms a
deep, broad box, into which the upper
part fits like a cover. When the bird
is feeding on shellfish or water PLAINS
in the shadows and flats the neck Is
twisted like a corkscrew until the
head is upside down; then the top Of
the beak is pushed along through the
mud like a scoop shovel, gathering in
the food morsels During the nesting
period the female builds d curious
mound of mud like tiny volcano, in
the crater of which a single egg is
laid. On this the mother Is said to
sit with legs drawn up like gro
tesque statue on pedestal.

ONE SCOUTS GOOD TURN

When Mrs. Lillian W. White Of
Union Hill, n. j., noticed boy scout
performing his "daily good turn" she
decided to write it up and enter 1t in
a contest on "What Did You See
Today?" that is being conducted by
the New York Evening World. Mrs
White won an auto as result. Here
is her prize story as it appeared in
the World:
'Three boy scouts walked past q
store on Bergenline avenue, in front
of which a baby, left outside while its
mother did some shopping, was crying
Justify. One of the scouts found the
baby's rattle and shook it vigorously
with little effect. He tickled the baby's
cheek. The infant became interested
Then the kindly boy scout made some
queer and rather humorous faces. The
cries died out. The baby regarded hin
solemnly a moment, then a sunshine
of smiles spread over the infants face
and a tiny hand reached out to GRASP
the lads finger. The boy scout die
not seem the least embarrassed, mol
did he even turn around to see if any
one was looking at him. His "goot
turn" that day was to pacify that baby
And he did, and when the mother came

scout smiled, touched his hat and re

DOUBLE CROP YIELD IN OHIO
Small Applications of Ground Line-
stone and Manure of Great Bene-
fit to Rotation.

Small applications of ground lime
stone and shed manure nearly doubled
the yield of corn, wheat and clover in
rotation on the Ohio experiment sta
ton test farm at Carpenter in the
southeastern part of the state.
Finely ground limestone is applied
on the wheat ground after blowing at
the rate of 100 pounds per acre. IN
treated shed manure is plowed under
for corn at the rate of five tons to the
acre.
The average increase of corn for
the period Of 10 years is 60 per cent |;
for wheat, 90 per cent; and for clover
hay, 10S per cent.
Other experiments suggest that on
most acid soils larger initial applica-
ton of lime is desirable, and that the
time of. applying the lime does not
greatly affect yields.

SELECTING DUCK
FOR MARKET USE.
Pekin Is Heavier Than Average
Fowl and Is Favored by
Commercial RaiSerS.
GROWS WITH MUCH RAPIDITY
Rouen Is Also Large Bird, but Has No
Decided Advantage-Runner Is
Undoubtedly Best Layer,
Although Small.

Those who are thinking of raising
ducks for market can well afford to
take stock of the situation and deter
mine in advance the breed which will
meet market conditions to the best adj
vantage. There is no profit in rails
ing breed which is unsuited for the
purpose which you have in mind.
Pekin Is Best Duck.
The best duck beyond doubt for
market purposes is the Pekin. 1t is
heavier than the average and grows
with such rapidity that the 'green"
ducks can be marketed to best ad-
vantage when only ten weeks Of age.
The Pekin stands at the head Of the
list and is the undisputed leader in all
duck markets, just as the Leghorn
dominates the egg-farm field among
commercial poultry raisers.
Close to the Pekin is the Rouen,
which is also a large duck, but to date
it seems to have made no marked i'm
preston upon the market 1t has no
advantages to offer over the Pekin
and, therefore, has made little head
way against it.
Runner. Is Best Layer.
For egg production we must turn to
still another variety. The Runner
duck is undoubtedly the best layer of
all the duck tribe. 1t is not out of
the ordinary for these ducks to COM

OIdtinne Pharmacies.

Many ancient wood cuts show the
pharmacies of the day-usually NOR
tar and pestle occupy table in the
middle of the room and many shelves
on the walls are filed with bottles.
Before the introduction Of chemistry
into pharmacy, mortar was almost
all the equipment that was needed.
There were no complicated pills or
ointments to be made. In the place
of labels the bottles or containers
bore the coats OF arms of titled fam
lilies and the badges of cities.
In the Sixteenth century there was
a reformation In pharmacy. Labels
appeared on bottles, and every kind
of drug or preparation was carefully
preserved in fitting eontainer. In
England Paracelsus simplihed the art
of preserving by the discovery of
tinctures, extracts and metallic salts.

mence laying late in the fall and to
keep it up throughout the winter and
the following summer. In fact, rec
ords of 200 eggs per year among these
ducks are not at all uncommon.
The Runner, like the Leghorn
chicken, is small and trim in size and
shape and, therefore, not well suited
for a market fowl, but it is probably
the best suited for general farm con-
ditions where good laying is desirable.
in fact, the Runner has in the past
ten years made rapid Roadway on the
farms because of this very fact.
In selecting a breed of ducks, Sc
lect the one that will fit the condi-
ions you have in mind and then the
.hances Of success will be immeasur'
lbly increased.

SHELLS USED As CURRENCY
Probably the Earliest Form Of Money
of Which There Is Any Real
knowledge.

The earliest tribes did not need
money because no individual in the
tribe owned anything personally. All
property belonged to the tribe as
whole and none to any one person
Later on when the tribes met there
arose the custom of barter or trade,
the simplest form of which was the
exchange of articles possessed by one
tribe for those owned by another. For
instance, some of the Australian tribes
had a rough green stone which was
valuable for making hatchetA, Mem
bers of another tribe, seeing these
green stone hatchets naturally wanted
them. They had no money, as we
know 1t today, but they had red ochre
with which they painted their bodies
Thus 1t developed that the tribe own
ing the green stones wanted some rec
ochre and each article became kind
of money-each became valuable for
trading purposes.
1t was necessary, however. &c
await the developments of unit OF
value" before money became elastic
It required something valuable In the
eyes of these tribes. One OF the
earliest forms of this elastic money
was shells. The skins of animals were
long used by savage tribes as money,
but these could not be carried aDodt
like shells The skins, however, were
valuable in trading and fortunes were
reckoned by the number OF skins
owned. AS soon as animals became
domesticated the live animal Itself 70
placed the skin as money.
Mad to Be Masters Of Craft.
Carved and handmade chests, sfds
boards, tables, chairs and other an
tiques are rightly valued by people on
discriminating taste In the Fifteenth
century men were known to have
worked eight years or more carving
a single one of these Intricate pieces
fitting the drawers perfectly ana bal
ancing everything. Certainly any
piece of furniture on which those mas
ters of the cabinetmaker's art spens
so much time and thought are worthy
Of appreciation.
An apprentice to the art or cab
lnetmaking commonly worked from
three to eight years making his first
piece of furniture This work then
was passed upon by jurors, and II the
verdict was imperfect" 1t was burned
before the door of the maker and HI
was forbidden to make furniture for

SCOUTING IN SMALL TOWNS

Out of the 1860 troops of boy
scouts in the country, there are over
6,000 that are not under council. This
means that they are not in councils
sufficiently large to. have definite
organization of men behind them who
help supervise and promote the work
of two or more troops, the way they
do IN larger communities. Out Of this
last number there are over 1000
troops that are in places so small that
they do not even have d post office or
railroad station. What does this
mean?
1t means that, unlike what is usual
" supposed by many people, the scout
ing program Of great. outdoor activi-
ties, through which the heart of the
boy is reached in helping to develop
character and citizenship training, is
just as applicable to the rural boy as
it is to the urban chap.
Wherever one good, red-blooded man
of higf-moral character takes hold of
a group of ten or more boys and APP
plies the fascinating scouting program,
the work brings the desired result
What is this program?
A boy learns the scout oath and
law, how to tie few knots, the his
tory of the American flag and the form
of respect that is due to it, history OF
the scout badge and what it stands
for, and then he is sworn into this
great worldwide brotherhood of scout
ing as a tenderfoot. Then he starts
climbing the most fascinating ladder
of boyhood activities that have evei
been, presented, up the ladder to be
come a second class, then a first class
scout. He learns things about nature
the birds, the trees, the flowers, tbs
stars and the animals that he has
never known before. He learns how
to be more -resourceful and take care
of himself in the great outdoors, how
to cook and to tramp and cook in the
open. He learns how to signal scOu
messages through the air in many diff
ferent forms. He learns how to take
care of immediate expenses and how
to be of the most service in his com
munity. The one slogan which guide
his actions of everyday is to do al
least one good turn daily. He stands
by the scout motto of BE Prepared.
This means to be prepared for any
emergency Of life and to render serv.
ice to others.
At the present time there is taking
place in every part of the country
what is known as anniversary round
up. This means that there Is an at
tempt being made to recruit net in
crease of 100000 scouts by the thir-
teenth anniversary of this movement
in America, which takes place Febru
airy s. Many city troops are increas
ing and there is great field for In
crease in rural troops.
