BY J. p. GLASS.

It Is related that young Greek out
of curiosity visited the kitchen of Mark
Antony. Seeing eight wild boars roast
ing at the same time, he expressed
great surprise.
What great number Of guests
these must serve" he said.
Nay" replied an offfcer, laughing.
There will not be above dozen in
all. But supper must be served in per-
lection, and perfection In food every
moment ceases and spoilS."
He went on:
1T often happens that Antony will
order his supper and q moment after
forbid it to be served, having entered
into some conversation that diverts
him. Hence, not one but many suppers
are provided, because 1t Is hard to know
at what time he will think At to have 1t
set on the table,"
Antony seems to have taken consid-
cradle pride in the meals he served his
guests until he ran into competition
with the lavish Cleopatra.
On the occasion of their first meet
ing she had no sooner disembarked from
the vessel that brought her than he
sent a courier with his compliments
and an invitation to sup with him.
THAT Is very delightful" she told the
deputy, "but should like much better
to play host to Antony. Beg him come
hither rather than that I should go to
him."
The Roman wasn't disposed to dis
pute the matter. He accepted Cleo
patra's offer.
She had caused number Of hand
some tents to be set up on the banks of
the Nile and in brief period had fur
nished them with Oriental magnifi-
cence. But what amazed Antony was
the brilliant and artistic illuminations
that were provided. They made mid
night-he stayed late-seem like mid
day.
The repast was wonderful. Return
ing to his own habitation, Antony de-
termined that he must make an equally
impressive showing In entertaining Gle
opatra. He invited her for the next
day. But though he did everything he
could contrive he felt that he had
failed. He confessed 1t to his guest.
OF course, this spurred Cleopatra to
new endeavors. From then on she made
greater and greater feasts for Antony
The service was beyond anything An
tony had dreamed of. He admired par
ticularly the vast number of her gold
cups, wrought by skilled workmen and
set with priceless jewels.
All" said Cleopatra. 'They are but
trifles. Accept them as a gift, please"
Her next banquet outdid all the
others Antony and the guests he had
brought with him, according to custom,
all distinguished oficers. lapsed into
rhapsodies.

How to Hold Galleries.

ologist. found that his normal weight

thority, though three inches above aver

authority, also three inches above aver
age height, maintained his weight on
2,450 calorieS a day.
Physicians and Psychologists generally
agree that a sedentary adult requires
from 1000 to $500 calories a day.

% per cent Of the energy in the fuel
consumed.
Fuel for the body comes in the form
Of fat or oil, protein or heterogeneous
material and carbohydrate or starch
and sugar Mineral matter does not
yield any energy. though essential for
the functioning of the organs. Fiber,
celIulose, carrier, packing, wrappers,
binders, skins, bones, connective tissue,
trellls work, do not yield energy but are
desirable as admixture with the fuel
A gram OF protein, such as white OF
egg, lean meat, gluten Of wheat. cot
tage cheese, yields four calories. There
being approximately 20 grams i'm
an ounce, you see an ounce of pure pro-
TEN would yield 112 calrries. A gram
OF pure starch or sugar yields exactly
the same amount of heat or energy as a
gram of protein. But a gram Of pure
lat or oil, such as suet, butter, olive oil,
yields ga calories.
The proportions of the three food
materials which seem best adapted for
man are as follows:
From protein, IS grams q ounces,
$50 calories.
From oil or fat, rs grams (2h), 300
calories.
From carbohydrates, 375 grams Us
ounces. 1,5OO Galleries.
OF course. these are only approxi-
mate proportions. Note that carbohy-
crate is the main source of energy, heat,
warmth, functional energy, nervous or
brain power, or muscular work.
Carbohydrate. meaning any kind OF
edible starch or sugar, is not only the
most important food for man but the
most economical and the most quickly
utilized. Protein and fat serve rather
Tor repair material and for storage;
starch or sugar serves for immediate
energy demand and is so utilized in the
body.

Thick EYelashes.


The best way can think of to make
eyelashes seem longer and thicker than
they are is to rub them with a thick,
black cold cream. Any sort of cream
will make them seem a little longer
and thicker and more prominent gem

Remove the face powder that always
Is spread over them, and use the cream
because oil darkens hair, sometimes
just while 1t is on, sometimes for
long time.
But cold cream made as l make
mine. by collecting a little SCOT on a
sheet of glass, using a candle smoking
against the glass, and mixing this with

Is the easiest, most harmless and most
effective way. There are lots of mas

market. know, and the good ones are
harmless. But any thick, waxy stuff,
hard to put on and take of, makes the
eyes look theatrical.
And rem ember that no makeup
should be used on the lower lashes, ex-
cept this black cold cream. Mascara
makes the lower lashes look like black
wires, which Is very ugly. It does not

to the trouble. Try bathing them night

A healing eye wash is made by dis
solving teaspoonful of boracic acid
powder in a pint Of water that has
passed the boiling point and Is then
allowed TO partially cool before the
powder is added. Stir until powder is
dissolved and keep the wash covered
