Long, slow, continuous cooking is necessary to thoroughly soften and render the cellulose easy to digest. The starch, which is present in the, grain, is enclosed in a cell-like struc- ture, therefore long cooking is'neces- sery to soften this cellulose, so that the digestive juices may act upon the cooked starch. ‘Following is a table of proportions to be used in prepar- .ing breakfast cereals: Protéin is‘ ‘riéc'e's'sairy'fdf'Bfiiidifig ail' bodily tissues, therefore it is a neces- sary food constituent. ,It is also the most expensive in the food groups.

Place a cov- er on top of, or, failing this, cover yvith two layers of cottoh batting and then with a newspaper and finally with oilcloth. Do not remove the husk or the silk from the corn. This can be uSed late in winter and will keep. The secret is to have each ear of corn entirely surrounded by salt, taking care that the ears do not touch each other. should be made into gruels for small childrén and. invalids, thenjstrained through a fine seive.

In the simpler forms of life the heart is a mass of pulsating cells, which, as the creature grows to 2ma- turity, lengthen out into a tube. In many insects and flies the heart takes a pencil form, running from the fore- head to the tip of the body. In ani- mal and bird life the heart becomes more nearly round and proportionate- ly stronger. An insect, owing to its peculiar structure, does not have to be crossed in love to die of a broken heart. A thumb on the back will do it. Garden spiders feed on large flies, small moths, etc. ” Stimulate crysanthemums liquid manure . . Saints, resented wise. The halo was originally a pagan sjrmbol of power. Thus it is not so very surprising to find Satan repres~ ented, in medieval paintings, with a halo. In that period it was customary to depict Iivirig rpersonages of great au- thority with square halos. Obviopsly, there would be no con~ ventional‘ impropriety in‘ painting- a portrait of Wilhelm the Wicked in a square halo. His Plutonic prototype would naturally wear a round one. The nerve system is the governing system of the whole body, controlling the heart; lungs, digestion and brain; so it is not surprising that nervous disturbances should cause acute dis- tress. The firstistages of nervous de- bility _are noted by irritability and restlessness, in which the victims seem to be oppressed by their nerves. The matter requires immediate atten- tion, for nothing but suitable treat- ment will prevent a complete breakâ€" down. The victim, however, need not despair, for even severe nervous dis- orders may be cured by impr‘oving the condition of the blood. It is because Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills actually make new, rich blood that this medicine has cured extreme nervous disorders after all other treatment had failed. The nerves thrive on the new blood made by these pills; the appetite improves, digestion is better, sleeplessness no longer troubles the former nerve shat: {cred victim, and life generally takes on a cheerful aspect.

A foreign garden ‘journal has recently pointed out that lDr. Dahl, the Swedish horticulturist ‘for whom the dahlia was named, in- ‘troduced it in the beginning as a 'vegetable, hoping that it would prove a useful and profitable edible. It was unknown in England, however, until Lady Holland, the imperious hOStess lof Holland House and its famous circle, imported it by mistake. She had ordered a small consignment of Jerusalem. artichokes after tasting, during her travels, a certain “Jeru- salem soup,” which so pleased her palate that she wished to be able to serve it to her guests. She was might- ily disappointed when only one of the roots survived, and that proved to be no artichoke but an entirely strange plant. It was ignominiously discarded from the vegetable garden; but as its buds showed a promising glint of col- or, it was not thrown away but was transferred to a modest corner of the flower garden. There its glowing ver- milion blossoms soon dominated the scene, and gardeners from miles around hastened to inspect the won- drous novelty. A London florist of- fered Lady Holland a huge price for lit, which she refused; having had to do without her soup, she had no mind to part with her flower. bad" cbh'd'ifibnw'iifiing‘h"Tia Dr. Smith, an ocullst of wide experi- ence. says: "I have treated in private practice a. number of serious opthalmic diseases with Bon-Opto and am able to report ultimatemrecovery in both acute and chronic cases.
