According to Mrs. Asquith, slender
ness, patience and compassion are the
highest qualities Of man"-that is to
say at once the highest and the most
desirable from woman's point Of view.
To these a woman journalist has added
eternal f~aithfulness, consideration
and generosity" with the proviso that
"of course, n takes strength as a
sine qua non Of the highest manhood.
likewise wisdom" There is room for
other qualities, and probably they will
be suggested as the symposium ex-
tends. The final picture will be at
least a handsome tribute to the po-
tential values OF the masculine sex.
Evidently, there will be no mistaking
the m~agnifcence of that picture

COOKING WITH SUMS HEAT

A camping party has done all Of its
cooking with q sun cooker. which suo-
cessfully cooked meat bread. cereals
and vegetables and furnished the heat
to make jellies and preserves and to
do canning. This sun heat is not a
patented device and has not been put
on the market, but was invented by
the officials Of the Washington Smith
sonian Institution to prove that the
heat OF the sun could be used as a
practical fuel, says the New York Mall.
The cooker consists of curved alumni
mum mirrors which focus the suns
rays on pipes filled with mineral oil.
These pipes can be heated Tar above
the boiling point Of water and will
retain their heat for some time. The
oil flows through coils In bake ovens
and can be regulated to any desired
temperature. It IS something Like q
hot-water heater taking advantage OF
the fact that heavy oil can be safely
heated to a much higher temperature
than water. Scientists r already
looking ahead to the time when the
earth's supply Of coal will be ex-
hausted and heat must be obtained
from some other source. The tides Of
the ocean II utilized would furnish
many times the heat and power the
world now uses. 1t would be less
costly to utilize the water power Of
the rivers, which will be done within
the next generation or two. The neces-
sity for using the heat Of the sun may
never come, although tn these things
there Is no "never."

Recent statistics sent out by the
census authorities show that the farm
population OF the United States Is only
31,614,269, a little less than 80 per cent
OF the total. This includes farm opera
tors, and farm laborers and their famt
lies, who live In the country. and
shows an average OF about five per
sons to each farm, says Farm Life.
About half the people In the nation
are classified as rural-that is, they
live In the country or In towns hay
ing fewer than $4,000 inhabitants, but
only 81 per cent Of the "rurals" are
actually engaged In farming. Thus
80 per cent Of the rural population
and the entire city population must
be fed by the men engaged in agri-
culture. 1t gives the farmer a big
job. Only a few years ago each
farmer had to provision his w fam
lily and one other family-now he
must furnish food for nearly three
other families besides his own. His
occupation should not fail

Origin Of Navajo Blankets.

The origin Of the famous Navajo
blanket Is picturesque. At the time Of
the Spanish conquest. the Navajo tribe
OF Indians was too insignificant TO be
rapidly, and in raids upon the Pueblos
took many At the latter prisoners.
From these (the Pueblos had long
been weave Of native cotton) they
picked up the textile art: and then
stealing sheep from the Spaniards,
they inaugurated the weaving OF the
wooden blanket
Only the women Of the tribe were
weavers, and In the early days did 1t
largely as an artistic recreation, just
as the women of civilization DO en-
broidery or tatting.

~csunpanieA Reasons given by these
companies for failure to 90 business
