have spent more than 40 billions
Of dollars. This is a sum almost
twice at much as the entire ex-
penditnres OF our national govern
ment from the first administration
.of George Washington through the
first administration ,of Woodrow
Wilson. 1t is far greater than all

all our municipalities. With that
much money our Revolutionary

Bronzes and gilt ornaments can b
cleaned only by brushing carefully
with fine quality, small paint brushes.
When too dull and shabby they must
be done over by professional. When
the cheaper quality Of gilt frames get
shabby. take enough -four Of sulphur
to give golden tinge to pint and 4
half Of water and add four bruised
onions. Boil 20 minutes, then strain
and cool. Wipe the dust from the
frame, and with small, soft brush
paint 1t over with the liquid, then set
aside to dry. When dry it will look al
most like new. The more expensive
big frames must be regilded by q pro-
fessional when very shabby, though
they may be touched up once or more
times with this liquid. which will help
their appearance.

There is one very good reason why
we cannot all be vegetarians, even II

not enough vegetables in the world to

place there is not enough land on
which to grow vegetables. Meat is con-
