Alcohol Long in Use

Alcohol has been known from time
immemorial, but it was not until 1898
that its composition was determined!
The word "alcohol" is of Arabic origin
and literally translated means powder
for painting the eyebrows" 1t was pre-
pared by the distillation of fermented
materials during the Middle ages.
Anhydrous alcohol was first prepared
by Lavoisier, a French chemist, in
1876, and its composition was first
determined by Soissume in 1908.

COOKING EGGS

Eggs cooked below the boiling point
of water are more easily and quickly
digested than are boiled eggs. Com
pared with other foods, eggs are cas-
lily and quickly digested.
Eggs are tissue building food, be-
ing rich in protein and mineral mat
ter. They are among the first foods
to be fed TO little children, because
they are so rich in iron. and because the
proteins, fats and mineral substances
are especially well suited to building
body tissues.

18-YEAR SEARCH.
FOR YEGG ENDS

CHICAGO, May 16 G.N.sJ.
The 18-year search throughout
the United States and Canada
for Joseph Harris. wanted for a
100000 bank robbery in New
Westminster, B. c., was at an
end today.
Harris, now "a, stopped a police
sergeant yesterday to ask him
for the price of a meal. The
policeman took him to the bu-
reau of identification, where
finger-prints revealed his identity.
According to police, Harris was
one of the most notorious safe
breakers in his day, whose opera
tionS netted him a fortune.
At the detective bureau today
he told how Lieut.. Bernard Burns
attempt to capture him in a
saloon many years ago was frus-
trated when Harris girl, Pretty
Kitty" Kelly, swung, a piano stool
against Burns head, allowing her
sweetheart to escape.
Lieut.. Burns, now dead, told
the story that he was set upon
by Harris and another man and
overpowered before he could draw
his gun. Burns feared the 1idicule
which would follow were it known
that a girl had felled him, Har-
riS said.
