was commanded by Henry, himself
Bridger's purpose in joining the ex-
petition was to make enough money to
send his sister to school. On the way
up the Missouri river the boat was
run into snag below Fort Usage and
the entire cargo of trading goods
escaped death or injury, however, and
proceeded on their journey. The men
were unable, however, to reach Three
Forks. They Wintered at the mouth
Of the Yellowstone.
The next spring Bridger was one of
party detached from the main group
and which, under command of Etienne
Provost, assembled the Yellowstone to
the Powder river, and then went up
Powder river crossing through south
pass of the Rocky mountains to winter
in the Cache valley in western Wy
oming. 1t was while there that Bridger,
to settle bet, followed Bear river to
the Great Salt lake, and became the
first white man to see that body of
water. A Spanish priest had heard the
Indians talk Of it many years before,
but had himself only gotten within 60
southern Utah.
Discovered Salt Lake
Bridger, returning to camp, told his
of salt water, and expressed the belief
that it was an arm of the Pacific
ocean. The Provost party went on to
the lake and explored it in boats, and
finding no outlet, established the fact
that it was a lake. Provost established
there for Ashley and Henry fur trad
ing post which became headquarters
west. Bridger remained with Ashley
and Henry until 1926. In that year
Ashley and Henry sold to Smith, Jack
son & Sublette. 1t was while on one of
his many expeditions for that concern
that Bridger entered the Yellowstone
park region. After his return to civili-
cation, finding that no one would be-
wonders he had seen, he embarked
upon campaign of telling tales that
we're tales, and from that time was
dated his reputation as the VESTS
champion liar.
One of the stories he told was of ar
attempt to shoot an elk. He saw il
grazing in what he thought was shoot
ing distance, and fired at it. The an
imal continued to Craze, paying no at.
tention to his shot. He fired again aftel
advancing upon it, but with the sam'
result. He then dubbed his rifle ane
charged it, thinking to best it in per
sonal encounter and ran against glas
wall, which, he said, proved to be ;
mountain of solid and crystal clea
glass, upon the other side of which tn
elk continued to Craze. Not only, n
said, did the mountain prove to be o
glass, but was of telescope tense ma
terial and the elk, while appearing t.
be within rifle shot, was in reality q
miles away.
In 1882 Bridger and Tom Fitzpatrick
started on trapping expedition. The,
were followed by two trappers nance

Bridger and Fitzpatrick, unable to out
distance them. lured them into tn
country of hostile Blackfeet Indians
Vanderburg was killed by the Indian
and the remainder of the party flet

The party of Bridger and Fitzpatrick
was also attacked by the Indians, how

the various minerals ana Vitamins and the body's need for large quan- titles of liquid to cleanse the system after It's long winter program oi meats and sweets and starchy foods
 That liquid, many will remember was not to be taken solely in the form o fwater, mix or fruit juices prepared for drinking, but at least half was to be obtained through the "water vegetables" which con- tribute fiber or roughage as well as water, and so keep the liquids mov- Ing in the body. This is a most important point in the cleansing diet and one of the pleasantest features of 1t.
 Vegetables and fruits high in water content and well provided with cellulose are: Cabbage, celery, spinach, carrots, turnips, lettuce, string beans, broccoli, cucumbers, radishes, onions, oranges, grape- fruit, rhubarb, apples, pineapple. A goodly array and there are others.
 Those who follow out a strict program for cleansing do not, of course, include in menus any starchy food, no meat or fat. But I know that not everyone can be SO consistent. It is for those that I give the following suggestions which bring the celansing foods to tho table in quantities large enough to give them a fair chance to do good work.
 Try spring carrots baked in a casserole with apples, if you want a dish that is different, yet within shis group. Scrape the carrots and cut them in long, thin slices. Core apples and cut them In slices about quarter of an inch thick. Place Q layer of apples in the bottom of Q buttered baking dish, then 8 layer of carrots, sprinkling each with dash of salt and dots of butter. Add layers until the dish is filled, ending with the apples. Dot generously with butter, sprinkle with sugar, cover aac bake until almost tender. Remove the lid and bake until top Is slightly brown. Serve as vegetable. Large onions, parboiled ant baked with Q stuffing of other vegetables like cooked peas ol chopped celery and carrots and cab. bage, or chopped green pepper ane cabbage, are delicious for the spring luncheon or dinner. Then later vii come fresh asparagus - wonderful water vegetable. Do prepare 1t ir this way: Wash, cut stalks off ur to point where tender, cook in boil. ing salted water, drain well ane serve with sauce of drawn butter blended with lemon juice, salt, a lit. tie cayenne and pepper.

Your Table Manners? Mistakes Made Under
 Cover

Not all the bad table manners go on above beard. Some very grievous mistakes are made below the table, too. As, for example, that bad little habit of hooking the feet around chair leg and over each other way back underneath the chair.
 Of equal sin Is the cross-legged position which throws ones feet far out toward the neighbor's knees across the way. When tables are small, actual damage can be done in this way to the other persons cloth ing.
 Feet should be placed square on the floor, at rest, just in front of the chair. In this position they permit the knees to hold the napkin with out sliding, and give the best pos- ture at the table.
 Chairs should not be pushed too far under the table. nor should they be left standing too far away. Tn the first instance, the diner is thrown back at an ugly angle or crushed too close to the table edge. In the Sec- ond, a definite strain and stiff pos- ture result from balancing on the edge of the chair for the duration of the meal.

in the control of mothers.
 As a start in the right direction, I advocate BETTER BREAKFAST. It Is all wrong to expect either the body or mind to be at par if, after twelve hour fast, 1t is sent on It's way with what we call the conti- mental breakfast. Your body-the human furnace--needs fuel and plenty of 1t to start the days ac- tivities. Your children and your husband need it-you, also-if home duties are to be performed energet- ically and cheerfully.
 In addition a good breakfast IS an arch enemy of the common cold. With individual variations, plan 8 daily breakfast like the following, to be eaten slowly, amid family har" mony. The children should have their orange juice and cod liver oil before they are out of bed tAen for all of the following:

TAKE IT EASY

HERE'S a speciality of ours wo | \ can recommend for Lent that's decorative, delicious and no work at all to prepare. All you have to do is cover the bottom of shallow but tered casserole with a thin layer of Cooked Macaroni-the ready pre- pared kind that comes done up in n cheesy cream sauce in can. Top this succulent layer with a ring of cooked, delicate asparagus stalks arranged so the tips radiate from the center. Then repeat the pro- cess again and cover the top as- paragus circle with q sprinkling of buttered bread crumbs. You'll be needing about N cupful of fresh bread crumes in all. Be sure to toss them in melted butter, too. Pop the casserole in a moderate oven (375o
 F.) 30 minutes. Then think up something nice to do with all your leisure time. Meals, you see, arc just no trouble at all these days.
