ELECTRIC RANGES
LATEST AND BEST
COOKING SERVICE
By Care in Using Stove,
Economy as Well as
Speed Obtained.

Women who own electric ranges
doubtless are delighted thus TO have
the latest and best cooking equip.
ment. but some, nevertheless, are
missing much of the real joy of cleo
tric cookery through not knowing
quite how to ger the most out Of their
ranges. These simple rules. culled
from the experiences of women who
know, will aid tremendously in max
ing electric cookery the lasting salts
faction that it is and should be.
Switch off the heat when not in
use. No housewife desires to waste
current Of course. but some unwit-
tingly do it. Probably this is the out
come of a habit handed down from
past generations experienced in cook
ing with coal and having to keep the
fire "in," so that it would be available
quickly when needed for the prepare
tons of meals. Why waste current
when the electric range is ready at
the turn Of switch--no wasting or
prelimiaries.
Use the oven for cooking whenever
possible. It's practically Theoretically
scaled, and once IL has been thorough
ly heated holds its heat a very long
time. Having heated the oven for bak-
ing use. use it thereafter in preparing
other foods. Current at SLOW" or
medium" will usually suffice to main
tain the oven at the temperature nee
essary for the operation.
When using the cooking top be sure
the vessels fit snugly against the heat
ing elements. Also, the utensils should
be Of ample diameter to retard the
heat from escaping to the side and
rising. before it has done full justice
to the food to be cooked.
Strip the range Of everything that
can be removed by hand and clean il
thoroughly once week. If the oven
lining is porcelain. wash it just as
you would n dish. using soap and hot
water II food has boiled over and
stained the surface, use a good cleans |
ing powder. /

materials for this big home building

"Baity can build for less" and still

Baity points with pride to the fact
that the first houses he put up in San

sold several times at a profit TO the
owner each time. attesting to the value

With the purchase OF twelve blocks
Of lots in The Highlands. the beautiful
B. G. Irish addition adjoining High

-- - - --.---- THE CALIFORNIA MISSIONS

Scattered up and down the coast of California-each one days journey on horseback apart from the next-are a chain of twenty-one great Spanish missions, which stand as a monument sverlasting to the credit of the Fran eiscan Fathers.
 Connected by a historic trail known e m Camino Real" (The Kings Highway, approximately TOO miles in lsngth-sxtending from San Diego northward to Sonoma. these romantic and picturesque buildings-Moorish in arehitecture-might well be classed as "The American counterpart of the things that people go to the old eoun- tries of Europe to see"
 These famous missions are a relic Of . romantic and yet fearless en- dsavor. carried on by the Franciscan missionariss, at the command of the hing of Spain to establish through a series of religious outposts c knowl- edge of Christianity in her farther. most possession. The movement took definite form when the Mission San Diego was founded in the year 176o but the chain was not completed until A years later when the Mission San Francisco de Solano at Sonoma was established.
 How many additional missions might have been added to this chain and how much farther up the coast 1t would have been extended. nobody knows. because before the advent of 1924 the system was disrupted and further construction stopped by the government of Mexico. However. this labor of love then had to its credit the civilizing and the Christianizing of a race of savage Indians.
 Some of these missions now lie In ruins or have passed entirely Into oblivion. Others. In a splendid state of preservation, are still used for reg ular service. The San Jose. fifty miles south of San Francisco. although not to be compared in size or cost to some others. has been accorded marked attention. It once owned more than 5000 head of live stock. The San Antonio de Padua, east Of San Luis Obispo. was compensated for its lack of riches by tinge of romance such as few, If indeed any of the others. possessed. San Gabriel. four miles from Pasadena, much visited, has been described as "a picture to re- member for lifetime" San Buena ventura, north of Los Angeles. a "glor- ious relic recalled from the past to bless with its memories the present and the future" had perhaps the most beautiful altar of all, while San Luis Ray de Francia. near Oceanside, with walls four and five feet thick. its cor ridor containing 250 arches. was per haps the greatest. richest and grand est of them all.

ss----@ Dlackbirds Eat Trout;
 Cotps Are Fed on F1al

Those who study Nature find that sSe-long traits and habits ars being in some cases modified and in others entirely changed.
 The writer knows of . case whers 6 bird had its habtts changed by al- tered conditions.
 A trout fishery was established on an estate in Scotland. During certain seasons a large number of the fry or young trout are crowded together in shallow ponds, as their inclination is to keep together just where the water enters.
 One day . blackbtrd. drinking at one of these ponds, got hold of . young trout, probably accidentally. but found 1t was excellent feeding. A baackbird does not by habit get It's food from the water, but this particu- lar one. having tapped @ new source of food supply. returned to It agafa and again.
 The following season this bird had by some means been able to impart its newly found knowledge to all the other blackbirds on the estate, and instead of one bird stsaffag the young fish. all the birds got into the way of doing sol The owner had either to shoot the blackbirds or give up try ing to rear trout.
 That an entire change of food A not detrimental may be proved by the fact that many of the COWS kept in Norway are fed on fish, yet who will say that a cows teeth were made for dealing with a diet of this sortf Philadelphia Inquirer.

Ghost Gives Shampoo
 to Women Customers

The curious story of a ghost that occupied itself in shampooing GUS toners In a Kensington hairdressers shop Is told by Mary L. Lewes in "The Queer Side of Things" recently pub lished here, says a London correspond ent of the New York World.
 A woman who entered the shop in a busy hour was told she must wait until an assistant was free, the story goes. Very soon a tall girl with red hair and a velvet bow on her head came to the customer and set to work to shampoo her. The business over and the lady ready to put on her hat again. she turned around to ask the assistant for her bill. but to her sur prise the girl had gone. Just then another attendant came h and said {: "Now, madam. am ready"
 But I have just been shampooed.' answered the customer, as indeed her haar showed, without doubt, that 1t had just been e1pertiy washed Whereupon the assistant had to give tn, and at Last, being pressed for e1- piana ton, owned that the same thing had happened to other customers
 There was no ordinary explanation, beyond the fact that a girl with red hair who used until lately to be en- ployed there had committed suicide, and that 1t was possibly her uneasy spirit that still returned to the scans of her former occupation

 Formerly known both as Oyster and Gibbst island. It was acquired by the national government from the State of New York in 1908 and became our leading immigration station tn 1901.

 The majority of these nsweoms1s go straight-away to the big cities- three-fourths of them, 1t is said. to the territory east of the Mississippi river and north of the Ohio river.
 Ellis Island is intensely interesting. Amusing and pathetic incidents occur daily. All immigrants approach 1t in fear and trembling lest tAsy provo unfit to enter. To nearly all of them our language and customs are un- known, hence they do not understand what 1t is all about 'ns said that more tsars have been shed here than any other place tn the world.

 Uncle Sans entrance laws arc rigid mot that he wishes to keep out de sirables, but because of the impera- tive necessity of preventing undesif- ablee from entering.

1t is a good thing for Luis Angel

established himself as South Amer
ica's fighting champion before Harold

voker-"Why Worry" Otherwise he
would have a dangerous rival in Co

of South America" who is certain to
make big hit in "Why Worry"
ColOsso is a small fellow-if you
look at him from an aeroplane. BE
is only feet Oh inches tall; weighs
AGO pounds, and wears size twenty
pounds.
Colosso was not fighting man un-
til Lloyd introduced him into pictures.
Then he became furious. OF course
no offense is pointed at the motion
picture. But the way he losses around
human flesh in this new lloyd pic
ture will convince the world that Luis
Angel is as before mentioned, FORUM
ate that he never collided with Colos-
so.
Colosso is not his real name, how
ever. He is really John Aasen, ma
tive of Norway, whom Lloyd discov-
cred in the wilds of North Dakota.
when he was casting about the world
looking for a giant.
Aasen has not always been so big.
They say that when he was four
years old, he was only six feet tall.
He is now "a, and according to ex-
perts has two more years to grow.
despite the popular theory that man
stops climbing in height when he is
