SELLERS OF BLOOD
SEEK TO UNIONIZE
"Bleeders' Want to Raise
Scale of Rates.

Berlin.-Competition In the sale OF
human blood has become so keen In
Vienna that the price has dropped to
80 Austrian shillings liter.
This blood Is used in blood trans
fusions. These have become so COM
mon in medical practice In that city
that regular trade has developed and
quite number of people live solely
from the sale Of their blood.
Many of them have been bled II to
IA times; the record is 16 times.
The Eiselberg clinic is the distribu-
tion center of the "bleeders' from
there they are sent to the various hos
pitfalls as needed.
The "bleeding" trade is, of course,
the last refuge of the impoverished.
After about IA bleedings, however,
they find themselves without blood
and without money" and the constant
bleeding has made them incapable of
heavy manual labor for life.
The names of the patients whose
lives are often saved by the blood
transfusions are kept secret from the
"bleeders" in order to prevent later
money requests. Personal gratitude Is
therefore unable to help them.
Recently the "bleeders" tried to or.
ganize a union in order to raise the
price of their blood, but the effort
failed and the "hIeeder's" trade Is
therefore still run on the open shop
principle.

If you have q two-way dish closet
in the connecting wall between the
kitchen and dining room, preferably
where that partition joins the outside
wall of the house, it Is possible to
place the sink at right angles to this
pass closet and continuous with 1t,
along the outer WALL with window
directly above for light and ventila-
ton. This arrangement is especially
good when the dining room wall Is at
the left of the sink, but it can be re-
versed in homes 18th the opposite
floor plan.
Used dishes and silver are passed
through from the dining room directly
to the sink. After they have been
washed they are put into the closet
at once ready to be taken out on the
dining room side. Not an unneces-
sary step is then taken in serving or
clearing away meals. 1t is wise to
keep within the compact limits of
these centers any small tools used at
the sink, and also cooking utensils
that are filled with water before they
are put on the stove or dining table.

German Soldiers Put
Wild Bears to Rout

Detachments of the German army
stationed In Thuringia were recently
called into action against an unusual
enemy. They were sent into the neigh
borhood of Eichsfeld, In the Thurin-
gian forest, not to put down an insur-
rection but to eradicate hundreds Of
wild boars.
On the whole, the wild boar Is an
uncommon occurrence in German for
ests. Once he gets chance to gain
foothold, however, he multiplies rap
idly. Breeds Of "a are known.
Near Eichsfeld, where the Thurin-
gian forest is skirted by mountains
along its northwest boundary, the wild
boar became veritable plague. Eff
forts of the farmers to rid themselves
of 1t proved unavailing. They ap-
pealed to the district commander of the
richswehr, or federal army, who, to
the Joy of the troops, permitted them
to break the monotony Of their mill
tary life by going on hunt for wild
bears. The casualties were all on the
side Of the enemy.

Thumb sucking does look sweet in q

year-old and sometimes it hangs on
until fifteen or sixteen! The habit
may cause an Informed mouth or In
duce adenoids; and 1t always inter-
feres with digestion. Pinning the

tens or putting on cardboard cuffs,
which prevent bending the arms at the
the habit.
Another bad habit-irregularit in
bowel action-is responsible for weak
bowels and constipation in babies.
Give the tiny bowels an opportunity to
act at regular periods each day. IL
er's Castoria will soon regulate them.
Every mother should keep bottle of
1t handy to use in case of collie, chol-
era, diarrhea, gas on stomach and

when baby. is cross and feverish. Its
gentle influence over baby's system
enables him to get full nOurishment
from his food, helps him gain,
strengthens his bowels.
Castoria Is purely vegetable and
harmless-the recipe Is on the wrap

Many City Families Work

A survey of $4,000 families in Chi
cago shows the average number In a
family to be fewer than five. In two
fifths of Chicago families the wife, or
children, or both, are wage-earners.
An interesting fact is that the number
of children in divorced homes and the
number living in lodging houses and
hotels is very small. 1t takes parents
twenty-four years to rear four-child
family. During seven years of this
time one child Is cared for; during an
other seven years, two children; dur
ing six years, three children, and dur

different ways, according to the other
materials one has on hand, the time
available. and so on. One Of the best
dinners you can produce with a can
of salmon as basis centers around
a plate of croquettes. The method of
making them is given by the bureau

tbs. butter parsley
" cup dried sifted / tbs. lemon juice
bread crumbs n tsp. salt
tbs. -four
Prepare cream sauce of the but
ter, flour, and milk and let it cool.
Drain the salmon, remove the small
particles of bone, and break the fish
into small pieces. Mix the cream
sauce, fish, lemon juice, parsley,
bread crumbs, and salt. Form the mix
ture into croquettes. Dip into the
beaten egg which has been well mixed
with the water. Roll in very finely
sifted bread crumbs and place on
pan or board. Let stand for an hour
or longer for the egg coating to dry.
Heat in an iron kettle any desired
fat until hot enough to brown bread
crumb in 40 seconds. Then carefully
place the croquettes in wire basket,
lower them slowly into the fat, and
cook until a golden brown. AS the
croquettes are removed put them on a
paper to absorb the excess fat and
keep warm in the oven until all are
prepared. Serve with a garnish of
parsley.

How to Measure Fish!

Olympia, Wash.-How to find the
length of fish is now one of the worlds
puzzles, so after University of Wash
ington sages failed to agree over the
method Judge Chester A. Bachelor
was left to decide.
Prof. d. Victor Smith declared that
since the state game law does not
specify, the proper way Is to measure
them from tip Of head to tip Of tail.
Now comes Dean John Cobb of the
college of fisheries: "The proper
measurement Of fish Is from the
point of W in the tail to the end
of lower lip" Judge Bachelor in his
decision will decide If Roy Jensen was
justly accused Of selling fish under the
legal length.

a submarine trip around the world At
some places he was able to detect
with comparative ease one of the phe-

time, the difference in weight of the

globe. This was done with instru

function accurately on board an above

difference in weight Is believed to be

Pie.-Take any bits of leftover meat,

The cheaper cuts of meat, If proper
ly cooked, are more flavorful and nu-
tritious than chops, steaks or legs of
lamb. Doctor McCollum says there Is
no more reason for buying steaks,
chops and ham than there Is for in
vesting in summer furs. In both cases
we do it because it is the custom.
A small amount of meat, such as a
good cut from the shoulder, will, If
Drowned and cooked with vegetables,
make most satisfactory meal. 1t is
we'll known that. the coarser and
cheaper cuts of meat are more rich in
extractives than those of muscle not
so much used, such as chops, steaks
and tenderloins. Long slow cooking
will soften the tough fiber Of meat
and result in a good-favored dish.
First of all the housewife should
acquaint herself on food values, then

independence and buy such food as she
