DIET AND HEALTH
BY LULU HUNT PETERS, NJ. d.

for this reason it has a reputation for
being conStipating, but it is not consti-
pating in itself The only precaution to
take when eating cheese is to be sure
to take more of the coarse foods that
do contain residue.
Cheese is probably the first form in
which milk was preserved for future use
on any large scale, and it has been
known since the beginning of history.
Aristotle and other philosophers who
lived many centuries before Christ mem
tion 1t. 1t evidently was considered of
great value in Old Testament times, for
David was given 10 cheeses by his
father to take to his captain just before
he threw the little stone that did away
with Goliath. And cheese was included
in the rations of wheat, barley. beans,
lentils, honey and butter that were sent
to David and the people who were
hungry, weary and thirsty in the VIII
derness" before one of the battles. III
Sam, xvii.29.)
How many types Of cheese do you
think there are? Guess again. There
are more than $50 varieties Most of
the cheeses are made Of cows milk, but
goats. sleeps. buffalo's, llama's, Ze-
bras and reindeer's milk are used in
different countries. Genuine Roouefort
is made of sleeps milk, but there is a
satisfactory form now made from cows
milk.
In the ripening process of cheese
many different types of bacteria are
employed. the most important being
different members of the Tactic acid
group. But these germs are included in
the immense family of beneficial germs,
and they not only help ripen and give
flavor to the cheese but they help COM
bat the putrefying bacteria OF the in
testines.

| trumps," finding 1t hard to control his
voice.
Three in spades" said the woman.
She was also quite excited, for she held
nearly all the spades, from the king
down.
-Four in hearts," said Jacob, abiding
by his rule to the last.
The brother declared small slam,
but his sister, still excited. would not
give way. She knew 1t was hopeless,
but in her excitement she declared a
grand slam In spades.
Nicholas hesitated. Then, rather
triumphantly. concealing his doubt of
the possibility of realizing 1t, he said
slowly and distinctly: "A grand slam
In no trumps."
All we're dumfounded Nicholas to
play a grand slam in no trumps! 1t
was impossible. But Nicholas stretched
out his hand for the pack to draw his
one card--the card on which every
thing depended. 1t had to be the ace
of spades. He swayed and upset a
candle. For moment he sat straight
up, laying his cards on the table, and
then fell over slowly, upsetting small
stand on which stood cup of tea.
The doctor soon arrived and an
nounced that Nicholas had died from a
planned that heart failure was quite
painless. The body was put on divan
and covered with sheet.
Jacob was quite affected. Finally he
went over and look at Nicholas cards
as they lay on the table. He saw the
IL tricks Then he looked at the card
Nicholas would have drawn had he
lived a moment longer. 1t was the ace
of spades! Poor Nicholas had grand
slam in no trumps at last. He could
have won it In another moment, another
second or two. Now he would never
know. BY seconds only Nicholas had
failed in realizing his life's one ambi-
tion.
Tears forced themselves into Jacobs
eyes. He was appalled, at the thought
that the word Never had a relentless
and bitter meaning. Nicholas would
never know. Then the woman came
over to him and he saw a question In
her eyes. He was sure 1t was the same
as that on his lips.

warrantable. it is equally warrantable
for the ailing one to assume that his
particular 'cold" Is not communicable
for our medical and health authorities
still teach some such thing We know
now that most of these respiratory in
fections-for instance. measles or scar
let fever--are most communicable in the
few days before the rash or fever devel
ops. In view of this fact and the fact
that no one can tell with reasonable
certainty just what the nature of such
an illness is going to be. in the early
stage. propose that the term cold" as
indicating disease or indispoSition be dis
carded from the langue and the term
"cri" pronounced kree) be adopted to
signify any such common respiratory in
fection in the period of incubation or
invasion or until the nature of the ILL
ness becomes manifest. The term ''cri"
is coined from the initial letters of the
phrase common respiratory infection"
and 1t is a good. honest word for folk
who would do as they would be done by
in this matter of preventing the spread

We know quite definitely the way cri
passes from one person to another. It
is generally by spray or droplet infec-
ton The transference Of respiratory
infection by kissing or by the common
use of toilet articles or other things
freshly contaminated by the sick per-

fection is the usual way.
When any one talks, a more or less
invisible spray OF droplets of moisture
shoots out from his mouth to a distance
of 3 or feet, not more than feet.
With coughing or sneezing the range of
the spray extends as far as 10 or IL
feet from the sick persons mouth. With |
laughter or loud talking or shouting, |
the spray range is perhaps to 8 feet. |
In the droplets Of moisture the germs |

Eat Moore Cheese.

We would be in accord with a slogan
Eat More Cheese" because in the last
survey, made in 1920. it was shown that
the total cheese consumption, including
that imported, was only 3l2 to pounds
a person per year. and that is a very
low figure in comparison to the amount
OF meat consumed
Sherman advises as much, and pos
Eihly more, money spent for milk and
cheese than is spent for meat, fish and
eggs. Do you do that2
You are most all familiar with the
importance of milk. You know 1t has
the highest grade of biologically COM
plete protein for building and repairing
tissues. You know 1t Is very high in
calcium. which Is so necessary for
proper functioning and for the bones
and teeth, and you know it is high in
minerals Except irpn) and rich in vita
minis. especially when the COW is on
green fodder.
Now, cheese is a concentrated milk,

things. weight for weight. than milk.
As milk leaves a basic ash, so does
cheese.
Remember that a preponderance of
our foods must be of the base or aka
ltne-ash type. So We should have a
larger amount of milk and milk prod
ucts, fruits. vegetables and nuts, than
Of the breads, cereals. pastries, meats.

Cheese can take the place of meat in
the menu because of its biologically

Today in
Washington History
ny DONALD \. CRAIG.

May !, 1791.-President Washington,
who is touring the Southern States,
wrote to the Commissioners OF the New
Federal City today, urging that the
plans for the city be made upon a broad
scale. He expressed his disappointment
that 1.-The fair prospect which 1t pre-
Sented when ] left Georgetown" should
be darkened and declares that If he
had discovered at his recent conference
with the property holders "a disposition
to contract my views, should have
then pointed out the inconvenience
and the impolicy of the measure"
The President again refers In this
letter to what is being done In Phila-
delphia to provide buildings for the
Federal Government and to the UNDER
lying motive for this action, which Is
undoubtedly to induce Congress, II pos
sible. to rescind the residence law and
abandon the plan to found a perma-
nent seat for the Government on the
Potomac River. 1t is the hope of the
people OF Philadelphia the resident
intimates that the Federal Government
viii remain there.
For this reason the President urges
all persons on the site or In the vicinity
OF the new Federal City on the Potomac
and all who are connected with the new
enterprise ~ be prompt and harmonious
In their actions. so as to discourage the
advocates of Philadelphia or other
cities.
Thomas jefferson, Secretary OF state,
wrote to President Washington from
Philadelphia. March 81. saying that
the day before a bill had been intro
duced in the Pennsylvania Legislature to
appropriate money for building Fed
eral hall, a house for the President, etc.,
in that city
This (though / do not want any
sentiment of mine promulgated with
respect to it," writes President WASH
ington, marks unequivocally in my
mind the necessity OF exertion to carry
the residence law into effect agreeably
thereto"
The President recently received word
from Tobias Lear. his secretary. In
Philadelphia, telling OF the alarming
expectation" of the people OF that city
that the law for establishing the seat
OF Government on the Potomac River
will be carried into effect.

Cards for Use ON Mothers Day
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

Next Sunday will be Mothers day,
one of the few celebrations of the year
that are intimately connected with the
home, and therefore of interest to every
household. Sons and daughters of the
family, however scattered, turn in
thought, If not in any other way, to the
hcme. some by writing letters with
something special to signify its being a
Mothers day message. others by sending
flowers or other presents, and a great
many by the expedient post cards that
seem to express better than they them
selves can what lies in their hearts.
If the Mothers day card-and 1t Is of
those in particular that 1 speak today
has something personal and particu-
larly expressive of thought and effort
on the part of the sender, 1t deserves
to rank with gifts of greater costlineSs

realize the delight in possessing handi-
work, however crude, which comes as a

brating Mothers day are not open, the
