/ butter, dairy butter, ripened dairy but
| ter, whole milk butter, imitation cream
cry butter, renovated butter, and pack
| ing stock butter. A list OF the many
kinds of butter is illuminating to the
housewife. as 1t shows how definitely
and carefully butter is classified.
While it is interesting to realize these
classifications, 1t is not essential for the
homemaker to comprehend all processes,
any more than it is needful for her to
know every detail. for instance, In the
manufacture of a fine davenport, in
order to enjoy the luxury Of one. She
is expected to rely on the good faith
of the firm from which she buys an
article, and the guarantee that 1t is as
represented. 1t is bit important for
the woman to know what she wants
and to ask for 1t.
For example. unSalted and lightly
sailed butter contains a lower per-
centage of water. and of course Of salt,
as the names imply Also they contain
a higher percentage of fat. These facts
are determined by technical method
known as scoring" Butter of these
types is the highest grade OF table
butter The butter is rich in flavor,
free from milky moisture, Is creamy
and smooth.
Whole milk butter is estimated as
"the last word" for excellence, but SO
rare that It enters but little into CAL
culst Unsalted butter OF the type
known as sweet butter" in common
parlance has grown in favor. 1t be-
longs to the class of whole milk buffers.
It has to be freshly made or to have
been kept so perfectly that 1t is the
same as fresh when purchased. After
it comes into the homemaker's possess
sion 1t must be kept close to the ice.
Buy it in small quantity which will be
consumed quickly, and get new supply
when needed. Sweet cream butter is
very delicate in flavor and aroma, and
is usually as light colored as cream
itself.
Technicalities of grading denoting
special qualities of milk and cream
processes of making and marketing but
ter. enter into the various kinds claSsi-
fed. It may be added that flavor is
not always criterion of fine quality.
"Renovated'i butter is sometimes excel
lent in taste, but variable, not sure. rs
in high grades 1t has to have gov
eminent stamp indicating what it is.
Cooking butter is not, of course. nigh
grade, but it may not be really low
grade. Homemakers are not vitality
concerned with all grades of butter. but
with those best suited to table. sauces
and other cooking purposes.

BEAUTY CHATS

Hobbies.
1t has often been said that every
one should have q hobby. 1t makes
you an authority on some subject. and
1t supplies at least one fluent subject
of conversation, and establishes a
friendship with all others interested in,
or envious of, that special hobby.
But why not two hobbies, the second
one something well beyond your abili-
ties, something different from the old
and everyday hobby? That will estab-
fish another contact with quite different
people and more than double your
interest in life. / knew youn woms n

Good Indians Increasing.

There are $4,000 North American
Indians living in IS or more States,
most of them on reservations admin
istered by the United States Govern
ment They are Of many tribes and
speak many languages. A few are In-
dams by adoption the bulk Of them are
Of mixed blood; minor proportion are
Of pure American blood-the only real
Americans in the country.
These Indian wards of the Govern
naent are increasing In numbers year
by year, but the numerical increase
Is due to q mixture of alien blood.
Caucasian or Negro strains; the num-
Der of pure American Indians Is steadily
decreasing. This race degeneracy-for

tuberculosis constitutes more. than
one-fourth of all deaths among the
Indians in the United States; 1T con-
stitutes one-third of deaths among the
Indians in British Columbia. From the
testimony of older Indians 1t seems
probable that In their natural rowing

Of Canada, for the year ending March

tuberculosis Is I'VE times more COM
mon among Indians than among the
, general population. Several factors
contribute to its prevalence. In many
, tribes tuberculosis has been introduced
comparatively recently, and the re-
sistance possessed by the white race
has not been acquired. Living
. conditions are far from ideal. and igno-

Ignorance of hygiene or the laws

of the gifts civilized white people have

OUR CHILDREN
Family Failing.
BY ANGELO PATRT.


Jimmie was always late with his
school work II the teacher asked for
a book report on Friday, she got it next
Thursday. maybe. II report cards were
to be returned Monday morning, Jim
n1ie handed his in late Thursday. If
the class had to change rooms at a
given signal Jimmie was alway5
scrambling through his desk when thu
last member Of the class passed out of
the corridor.
Dear me; yes I know it." said his
mother His whole family is like that.
His fathers family, you know. were
never on time in their lives. My hus-
band was late for his own wedding.
How can Jimmie help ftp"
Lateness is not a hereditary failing.
1t is q matter of training II Jimmie
had been trained to be on time he
would have been so. but as he had
been trained to be late, he was late.
Heredity is a force we have to accept
But none Of us know just how much of
it is at work in the children under our
care and as long as we do not know
wouldn't it be better for the children
If we were to hope that this failing
could be trained out? Deny the power
of q poor trait or tendency instead of
Affirming 1t to your mind and the thing
loses force. Keep Affirming it, and It
gathers power.
/ have seen this happen many a
time A parent accepts as q settled
thing that q son or daughter can't
do certain work; or can do certain
work; or must be gifted in certain
lines and not in others; because the.
family traits were such and such.
Sometimes the thought is right, but
t.
are set within the child when they
might have been eradfcated under an
other point OF view. An open mind
toward child's traits and tendencies
and habits is always best. Faith In
their ultimate goodness and rightnesS
is always best. TO pin a bad habit
upon them for life is never helpful and
always bad teaching
l know you cannot make O. singer

sort Of thing is too obvious for notice
But there is no need OF gripping the
growth Of child by placing family
pattern on him and so forcing him to
conform to the worst standards of the
group. Now is there?
You can teach a child to be on time.
You can teach him to do his daily work

teach him the simple though funda-
mental habits Of cleanliness. of health.

work on time.
