SIMPLY PERFECT IN THEORY
Kitchen Management Left Nothing te
Be Desired, Except the Prosaic
Fact of Cooking.
An experienced housewife, who has
never taken any other course in do
mestle than that afforded by
wrestling many years with the prob.
lem of three meals a day, felt much
interested when her college-bred daugh-
ter told her that she was going to
the week-end with a friend who
was the last word in the highbrow
world of the coking specialist.

Real “Fire King”
Back somewhere around 1830 was
an man called M, Chabert, better known
as “the king,” and these are some
of the things he did to prove himself
inhuman and a marvel in London. To
begin with, he swallowed 40 grains of
phosphorus, which is quite enough to
kill two good-sized men, and after that
he sipped oil at 830 degrees, and lived
long enough to rub a red-hot fire shovel
over his tongue, face and halr, and
then lived some mare.
Some few years mter, on a challenge
of £200. lie repeated the feat, won the
wager and threw In a few more like
stunts for good measure, He swallow-
ed 4 piece of burning toreh, for in-
stance, and then, costumed In coarse
woolen, entered an oven at 880 de

State Inspected Seed Potatoes.
The Bureau of Plant Industry, Penn
sylvania Department of ‘Agriculture, at
Harrisburg, is daily receiving inquiries
from all parts of the state for
Seed Potatoss.”
For every one who has made such in-
quiry there are doubtless . numberless
others who would welcome the same in-
formation. In a recently issued list the
Bureau has given the names and ad-
dress of many farmers who have excell~
ent stocks of seed potatoes, which were
carefully inspected by potato experts in
1920 and are therefore known to be of
high quality, The Bureau will gladly
furnish this list to any one interested,
As a further valuable protection to the
distant buyer the Bureau undertakes to
seal and tag these potatoes so that they
can be fully relied on wherever they go.
All inquiries for such seed hereafter re-
ceived by the Bureau will be sent. to all
the growers, who have this ‘State In.
spected Seed” for sale,
