Seated at the next table was a quartet of officers, home on furlough. Presently a waiter step- ped up to us and said that the officers objected to our speaking the English tongue. Knowing that we were well within our rights, we refused to dis- continue the conversation. The four officers then rose, stood stiffly at at- tention, and demanded that we be ejected from the restaurant. It was a very unpleasant and humiliating ex- perience; but, as we look back, we cannot fail to see the humor of it, with the men standing so ridiculously straight in the center of the place. The American, as host, approached the group and endeavored to explain but he was swept aside with haughty gestures. Upon returning to the ta- ble, the proprietor informed him that he would be unable to serve the rest of the meal, and we were compelled to leave the restaurant.—Atlantic Monthly.

Mark Twain’s summary of his own many-sidedness is revealed in one of his letters to William Dean Howells, just issued, in “Mark Twain’s Let- He was a miner, he says, a prospector, a Mississippi pilot and a traveling printer. “And,” he adds, “I was a lecturer on the public platform a number of seasons, and so I know a great many secrets about audiences— | secrets not to be got out of books * * * * And I am a publisher * * * and I have been an author for twenty years and an ass for fifty-five.

A newspaper friend of ours, whose duties keep him up o’ nights, entered a down-town restaurant at a late hour Tuesday evening. He glanced at the clock, then at the calendar, then at the menu, from which he ordered a frugal repast. Then he waited ner- vously. At the end of ten minutes he succeeded in catching the waiter’s eye. “Look here, how long am I going to have to wait for that grub I order- ed?” he inquired. “Qh, I guess it wen’t be long, now,” yawned the waiter. “In a hurry?” “In a hurry? Say, I ordered a meal without meat because it is a meatless day. And if I have to wait five min- utes longer it will be a wheatless day, and I won’t get a darned thing.”— Cleveland Plain Dealer.

It therefore becomes important to know what combinations can be made and the relative food value of such combinations with our standard food- stuffs. One of Philadelphia’s able chemists has given me a bread com- bination, which he has worked up with his wife’s co-operation. They use corn flour, which has here- tofore been almost unknown in our domestic bakeries, and it would seem to open the way for a very large sav- ing of our wheat flour. It must be distinctly understood first that there is a great difference between corn flour and corn meal. The corn flour in composition is practically the same as the corn meal, but it contains a lit- tle more protein and starch, and a little less moisture and fat, the short- age of fat being due to the fact that the germ is extracted before grind- ing. It must be further understood that you cannot replace all of the * | wheat flour with corn flour, as the corn contains no gluten, which is the constituent in wheat flour that makes it possible to obtain a raised dough. However, bread and rolls made with twenty per cent. of corn flour have little or no corn taste, and this is the per centage, which has been found after long experiments, to produce the best bread. The same proportion can be used also for griddle cakes, pastry and cakes. To make bread as it is made in the average household, where a sponge is set and no accurate measure of the flour is made, the better plan is to mix a quantity of the two flours, keep it on hand, and use the mixture instead of wheat flour. For a twenty per cent. mixture, take one quart of corn flour and four quarts of wheat flour, mix thoroughly, preferably by putting through a flour sifter three or four times. Of course, larger quan- titles may be mixed at one time, keeping the proper proportion. In pastry even larger proportions of the corn flour may be used. In making bread, pastry, etc., use this mixture in exactly the same proportions and treat it exactly as you would ordinary flour. In nutritive value the difference be- tween the mixed flour bread and the all-wheat flour bread is very slight. Their food value is practically the same, and if white corn flour is used, the bread has the same appearance as the all-wheat bread. This bread has a decided advantage for every day consumption over most of the war breads made of whole wheat, oat flakes, bran, etc., by being free of the roughage, and consequent- ly it is not irritating when used meal after meal and day after day and would not be apt to tire of eating it every day. Corn flour can be obtained from grocers, or they can get it for you as it is regularly on the market and is being made by a number of milling companies and in cost should be cheaper than wheat flour. It should be ground as fine, or nearly as fine, as the wheat flour which you are in the habit of using. This bread makes a twenty per cent. saving of the wheat with no practical loss in food value and with- out any of the objectionable features of the coarser meals. Prevents Water Freezing. Mixture Pipes A mixture which is declared to have proven successful in preventing water pipes from freezing is described by Thomas W. Benson as follows: “To a solution of thin boiled starch add sawdust until the mixture forms a thick paste. A fine sieve may be used to clear this sawdust from lumps. “Heavy cord is first wrapped around the pipe, spacing the turns about one- half inch. A one-fourth inch layer of the mixture is smeared on and allow- ed to dry; then a second layer is put on and smoothed up. The string acts as an anchor to make the coating ad- here to the pipe closely. Whitewash or paint may be used to give a finish for inside pipes, but for outside work cover the coating with hot tar. If it is desired to have a very neat cover- ing wrap the sawdust coating with cloth or canvas, applying it in narrow strips like a bandage.—New York American. . Why She Cackled.

I tried it all one winter in this city myself, and I know. I bought and read (mostly) half a dozen papers daily and after giving away what I could, slept warm as toast with three or four leaves spread, between the sheets (quilts, etc., not necessary, nor the sheet either except to keep the pa- pers in place, and a little basting with long stitches does that all right for months). I brought this to the atten- tion of several mothers with families who were short of both blankets and coal, and they pronounced it a god- send which kept them warm and cost them nothing. The waste of newspa- pers is a crime. Properly utilized after being read they would be worth more than the entire wool crop of the country. A vast industry could be based upon this suggestion. The coal shortage would be robbed of half its terrors if the vast destruction of the childhood growth of our forests, in the form of pulp, were subsequently util- ized in articles as really valuable as those in which it is now consumed. Little capital would be needed, be- cause the principal element is now substantially a waste product. It has already satisfied the supreme want of society by serving as the vehicle of intelligent communication by the press. It would become a valuable by-product and no longer be a waste. I have several times called atention to this matter through our newspa- pers, but it seems that there is still a want of “blankets.” There is no need of it. Every woman ought to try it. Organized charity would be surprised to see the good it could do without much money. Let the Associated Charities try it. Mr. Garfield could tell folks about it and help out until the coal famine is over—perhaps, too, many a soldier in camp or at the front could keep warmer if he had old news- papers in plenty where he now wants coal, and even “blankets.” Paper will be used as an original supply for clothing, etc., more and more, but I now refer to the saving of an article which has already paid for itself and answered its primary purpose. Let all the people who sleep cold try it tonight. A Sufficiency. A caboose, Dorothy, is a utility car attached to the rear of a freight train. By tk: way, Dorothy, your question recalls a little story. One warm sum- mer day Mrs. Murphy was sweeping her piazza when Mrs. Carr, the engi- neer’s wife, came along carrying her latest baby, the tenth. “Arrah, now, Mrs. Carr,” cried Mrs. Murphy, “and there ye are up and around again with another little Carr.” “Yes, Norah,” said the engineer’s wife, “another little Carr it is, and as far as I am concerned I pray the Lord it’s the caboose.” — Subscribe for the “Watchman.” Medical. Reaping Benefit : FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF BELLEFONTE PEOPLE. We are fortunate indeed to be able to profit by the experience of our neighbors. The public utterances of Bellefonte residents on the following subject will interest and benefit many of our readers. Read this statement. No better proof of merit can be had. Mrs. Katie Capani, 224 S. Alleghe- ny St., Bellefonte, says: For about a year I suffered almost constantly from pains in my back. I had sore- ness across my loins and the doctor told me my kidneys were not acting properly. The trouble affected my sight and I could hardly read. Doan’s Kidney Pills were brought to my at- tention and as I had heard that they had done a lot of good for others I got a box. The first few doses reliev- ed me of the awful pain in my back and I continued until I was entirely relieved. I have taken several boxes of Doan’s since and they have kept my kidneys in good working order.” Price 60 cents at all dealers.

She was flushed, she was radiant, she was one of the NEW women. A mild-mannered but really bold husband who had escorted his wife to the meeting ventured the sug estion that the proposed law should read “all persons” instead of “all males,” but the women, already quick at pro- tecting their interests, howled him down. According to the proposed law all men in the State of New York must register, and then the Governor may assign them to work, either for the State or for private employees requir- ing help. The bill will be introduced in the Legislature by the Assembly- man from Queens. The Jealous Husband. Wife—I'm going to meet my Wa- terloo tonight, dearie. Jealous Husband—Oh, you are, are you?

As comprised in Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla and Peptiron, taken in conjunc- tion, these valuable remedies possess unequalled value for the quick relief of a long train of ailments common in the Spring season. You know well the great tonic properties of iron. They are much increased and improved in this combination—Hood’s Sarsaparil- la before meals and Peptiron after. In these days of rushing and push- ing, beyond the endurance of even the most robust, nearly every man and woman needs this blood-purify- ing, cleansing, up-building in the Spring. If it is not supplied, the de- pletion of the blood and the broken- down nerves may soon give way to permanent ill-health. If a cathartic is needed, as where there is a biliousness or constipation, Hood’s Pills should be taken. They are purely vegetable, do not irritate. 64-7 or German. Office in Crider’s Exchange.
