olalRF JOSEPH

February 18th there was very clever and interesting write up on Chief Joseph, of the Mex Perce h. diana of Idaho and Montana. at times. of Washington.
 Josspt was regarded by General Nelson A. Miles, by General Crook. by General o. o. Howard and by other eminent officers of the '70's as the shrewdest, most capable and efficient Indian commander of all time. Of military tactics he was ignor ant. Strategy in warfare he knew but little about. Drill formation. mass movements. retreats. advance mcnts and general field work were outsids his knowledge. but he took Q handful of warriors. burdened his camp with nearly 400 helpless women and chcildren and fought four different attachments of the U. s. cavalry over 1000 miles of noun tain and prairie country and finally surrendered to General Miles whom within 50 miles of the Canadian border where he was headed for. At the time of surrender 1t is said shat hs had but 22 fighting men left. He had gone through Il engage ments with the U.' s. troops in his mastsrly retreat and gave up when it was humanly impossible to so farther. Right there he was named the Napoleon of American Indian Warriors." From the time of the discovery of America to the day of the very last conflict with the first Americana. no Indian fighter has approached him in ability on the aeld of war.
 We have forgotten just the date. but is was in the early 'So's that we met and talked with Joseph and some 20 of his followers on the banks of . clear running mountain stream close to the line separating Washington and Idaho. There were perhaps half dozen lodges in an acre or 80 of clearing fanked by snsllish trees. It was an ideal To- cation and very pretty at the time of our visit. The foliage of the brush and the soft wood trees were turning scarlet as the first frosts of the fall came down. Of to one aide of the lodges there was an out Eide nre burning and around this grouped Joseph and his close friends. An army ofncer-a lieu tenant or sergeant-made the ia- troduetions. There were no signs tn dress or reSahs to set Joseph of beyond 6 rather loose nsek-piece of yellow cougar claws. All of the h. dtans were in red blankets and brown moecosins. All of the men were tall. gaunt and hard visaged from past battles and hard confiict. 1t wss about the time that the gov ernment moved the Neg Perce In- dtans to Oklahoma. l. T., reserva- tjoa.

meat Is a leftover dish. the creamed
celery should consist of the outside
stalks from the celery used the day
before and the tomato jelly is to be
made from canned tomatoes.
A good plan to adopt is to do buying
Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. Tues
day because 1t is usually time when
there are fresh fruits and vegetables
to be had and supplies should be re-
plenished for the week. Friday be-
cause If you want fish this should be
bought as fresh as possible. Nest
housewives like to do their Saturday
ordering in person. Still, If Saturday
is to be a busy day; you may make all
arrangements with a trusty salesman
when you call on Friday. Ask to have
your order put up the first thing Satur-
day morning-an arrangement which is
mutually desirable since the clerk likes
TO get as many orders as possible out
of the way before the Saturday rush
and because you get the advantage of
fruits and vegetables while they are
still fresh and plentiful. Housewives
who are considerable enough to do this.
1 am sure. reap their reward.
Roast chicken Is suggested for din
ner on Sunday. but don't leave this
until the rush hours on Saturday, be-
cause by that time your butcher may
have no suitable roast chickens left
Small meat stores carry only limited
supply of such expensive meats and II
you make your want known at least by
Friday your butcher will doubtless re-
member 1t in making his orders.

Country Girl Should Look to
Woods and Fields for Living

Girls and women who live in the
country and want to do something to
earn money without having to leave
home usually feel that they are very
much handicapped because of their
more or less isolated position. In
some sorts of work, of course. they
are. You cannot start class for
children of pre-kindergarten age un-
less you live where there are plenty
CT children living nearby whose
mothers may be induced to put them in
your care for certain hours of the day.
and you cannot succeed with refresh
ment booth or tearoom unless lots of
automobiles pass your house every day.
One favorite theory in regard to find
ing home work is this: Don't try any,
thing where you will have to compete
with others more favorably located or
equipped than you are. Consider your
handicaps. and if possible turn what
seems to be handicap into real help.
Make profitable virtue of necessity. in
ether words.
Here you are in the country. with
fields and woods around you-flelds and
woods that seem to stand in the way Of
your making money. 1t may be that in
those very fields and woods you will
find the source of your income So, to
begin with. put on good stout shoes and
q pair of substantial stockings that
won't run ladders if you rub against
brush and briars: put pair Of old scis-
scrs in your pocket and carry a basket
and go out in the fHids end woods on
little exploration trip.
In one section of the country there
are endless low-grcwing haybsrry BUSH
es. If YOU gather these when the bay
berries have turned lovely frosty blue
color and then keep them Until the
leaves have fallen off you will find that
they make charming bouquets to use for
vases indoors Make a few of these
bouquets and when you can manage
make trip to the nearest city or large
town and visit some florist shops or gift
shops and see whether they would like
tc buy them from you
If your woods have holly and ever
green, you should have no trouble in
selling that around the holidays. Or,
perhaps, you have friend in some large
city far from where the things that grow
in your nearby woods are to be found
Send box with samples of the things
you could furnish and ask this friend
to try to find market for you. There
IS always demand for the bright
crange-berried stalks of the bittersweet
at Thanksgiving time, and in large East

what we call japanese balloon plant
with its large orange and yellow seed
pods.
If you live near lake or saash0re where
there are pretty pebbles and shells, you
may find in them source of profit. The

BY THE FOOD EXPERT.

If you live In small quarters, with
practically no storeroom facilities, then
there Is only one way to do your buy
ing-and that is to do 1t In hand-to-
mouth fashion. There is no advantage
in buying six packages Of oatmeal at
time unless you can get them cheaper
that way And if your shelf room is
strictly limited. you had better use tn"
grocery shop as your storeroom, buying
only one package of anything at time.
Small living quarters fortunately are
located in fairly central position, so
that a daily trip to the stores does not
take much time.
But II you have house or any sort
of storage facilities whatever. then you
ought to take advantage of the fact
that many dry groceries may be bought
cheaper in large quantities than In
small ones. A bag or barrel OF sugar.
a barrel of -four tif you do much bak-
ing). a case of canned tomatoes. a box
of soap-a few cents saved in each
case means dollars in the course OF
season and these dollars are well worth
saving
These things may be stored anywhere
that is perfectly dry and free from the
intrusion of mice and other unwelcome
household pests. A few high shelves
in the kitchen pantry or a section Of
the attic makes a good place for such
a storeroom.
Storing potatoes, csbbo gcs, apples and
such things. of course. requires place
that is cold AS we'll as fairly dry and
unless you are sure that YOU have the
right sort of storeroom for this pur-
pose don't attempt large quantity buy
ing of these foods.
One woman I know had cold store
room built in her cellar. After the
carpenter had sent in his bill and the
woman had done a little figuring she
realized that it would take 10 years
before the amount she could save by
large quantity buying of potatoes, etc,
could make up for the cost of the cold
closet

Laying in Food Supplies for Week
Done by Shopping Three Times

bill of fare for the entire week at a
time is that when this Is done time
may be saved in the buying of pro-
visions. You may find that two or
three trips to the stores will do for the
week. l find that there has been within
the past few years reaction against
personal shopping of the sort that was
so general during and after the war.
In some growing towns where it was
once possible to park Car somewhere
near the provision stores 1t is now
usually impossible. and many women
who once drove their cars out every
morning for the purpose of shopping
have come to the realization that the
price of gasoline and oil offsets the
advantage of the S. stem.
In considering the meals planned for
this week. let's see how the buying
may best be arranged. The materials
for Mondays breakfast and lunch, If
possible, should be in the house to start
with. because Monday morning Is
usually too busy time to spare time
to go to the stores. If you do your
ordering by telephone, however, go over
the list bright and early and get your
order in soon after the store is open
And while looking over your list to
see what is needed Tor Monday. glance
down at the meals planned for Tuesday
and Wednesday as well. You may have
