the use of wheat, pork, beef, dairy ptod

This Is not much to ask. We are not

told to make them oat something elte so
that these foodstuffs can be shipped

More About Linen Shades
To the Editor of Woman's Pane:
Dear Madam What preparation can he used
for cleanlnr white linen ahadea, or can they he
washed? Hope to aee your anawer In tha
Evsmso Lidoib. (Mra.) J 8
There Is no preparation recommended for
dry cleaning white linen shades. If they are
slightly soiled ruDtiing witn a new white
eraser or with a piece of art gum will take
out the spots and lightly sponging with a
damp cloth wrung out In white soapsuds
And ammonia will remove the dust.
'White linen shades can be successfully
washed, however. If they are hopelessly
dirty and only thorough soaking will cleanse
them, take the shades off the poles and
oak them overnight in white soapsuds. Be
fore soaking them take the measurement of
their width. Wash them out In the morn
ing and Iron while quite wet This gives
a stiffening and gloss which has rone of the
disadvantages of starching. In Ironing use
the measurement to insure making the
shades the same width they were before
being washed. Shades are aot to shrine,
but can be stretched to norinut width.
If you do not care to take the shades
Off the pole lay them out flat on the kitchen
table and thoroughly scrub with white soap
suds and ammonia. Follow the same direc
tions n Ironing.

PATSY KILDARE
THE OUTLAW
By JUDD MORTIMER LEWIS

GOT auntie, Mr. Hookrudder's cook, to
fix up a lunch this morning when I had
I
eaten breskfast nnd then T went In nnd
talked to the burglar while the nurse ate
and Levy got the auto ready. I asked the
burglar, VKor cat's sake, aren't you eer
going to get well? Does the doctor keep
the weight tied to your foot all the time?
Is your father dead, as well as your mother?
Didn't you ecr go to school? Did you love
your teacher and did the other lilds play
with you? Aren't you sorry you are a bur.
glar?
He Just grinned and said "Yes" to every
thing, so he mado mo tired. Then Levy
honked and I went down the banister nnd
Rowdy and I hopped Into the bark scat of
the auto and went away from there. When
we got to school wo sat on the walk till the
bell rang and none of the Mds would play
with us At recess one of the teachers said
that I was to be in her room after the
Christmas vacation because Miss Willie
Dangtar had told her that I was going to
pass. She Is a nice-looking teacher, and she
said she had heard about me from the prin
cipal nnd that she would be very glad to
have me In her room. I guess It does help
to have some one around who Is Irish.
The teacher patted Rowdy, which made
me like her all the more. So I said to her
'May I come to your room and speak to
you all alono?" She said: "Certainly.
Patsy. What Ir If Have tome of the chil
dren been Imposing on you?" I said: "No.
nobody Imposes on the Irish. You're a
friend of mine nnd f wnnt to do you a good
turn." She raid "You sweet thlrg. what Is
It?" I said: "It li that rtuff you pulled on
the kids In your room ono day Hbout the
world being round Nobody with any sense
heard you say It except me, but the prin
cipal -night hnxe heard you, so now you go
ahead and teach the ltlds that the world Is
flat. Just as If you had neer bald any
thing else, and I promise not to give you
away." The teacher laughed and said: "I
am going to tell you something that Is
ery h.trd for a little girl to understand."
"Not If she Is Irish," I said. "Go to it."
"Well," said the teacher, "the world is
reallj round" I said: "Geo! You are tho
second ciaiy girl I have known. Anybody
can see that the world Is flat." "Walt." she
said. Then she sot a big book and showed
me a pitcher of tho world and tho pitcher
proved that the world Is round. Just as tho
teacher said I was rertaln'y surprised,
but. of course, nfter she showed me the
pitcher l knew she was right, because they
could not take the pitcher of tho world nnd
make It round If It was not. When a thing
Is In a book It Is always so.
The pitcher of the world made me think
of my mother's pitcher, so after school I
went to our house to see If there was any
dust on It. because Jim had told me that
when dust began to gather on my mother's
pitcher It would be the flgn that my f.ither
was going to be married again. My moth
er's pitcher was not there! When I couldnt
find It I wanted to go out and crawl under
tho house, I felt so badly. My heart wai
all swelled up and such a lump came In my
throat that I almost choked. I could not
think who would Meal my mother's pitcher,
and I did not know which way to turn or
what to do. I ran back to the school, where
Ley was waiting to take me to Mr Hock
rudder's, and I told him to go as fast as
he could.
When we got there I ran to my father's
room and said "Somebody has stolen niv
mother's pitcher off the wall at our house
and you must come back to the rlty with me
and call out the petroleum wagon and -at. h
whoeer did It" My father said Why,
Patsy. I hae got It here In my room I
brought It here myself. I could not sleep ui
this house If It was not with me ' Then I
certainly did hug my mother's pitcher nnd
my faiher hugged me and the nurse sniffed
and said nothing when I told her about it,
and there was not a bit of dust on the
pitcher! So tonight I am a er happ lit
tle girl.

Not Asked to Go Hungry
IN URGING tho American peoplo
to "Serve by Saving" and "to
Fight by Helping the Fighter
Fight," the United States food ad
ministration asks no ono to go
hungry.
AMERICA'S PROBLEM is to feed
our allies this winter by sending
them as much food as we can of the
most concentrated nutritive value in
tho least shipping space. These
foods are wheat, beef, pork, dairy
products and sugar.
THE SOLUTION is for us to eat
less of these foods and not to make
ourselves go hungry. There are
other foodstuffs in America in
abundance.
OUR PART is to eat the other
foodstuffs.

The woman of distinction wants
distinction in her clothes, even
when she is in mourning, and yet
she wishes to avoid anything con
spicuous or striking. The mourn
ing wardrobe has to achieve dis
tinctiveness while being perfectly
conservative. Tho accompanying
illustration shows a mourning cos
tume that fills these requirements
exceptionally well. Tho lines are
simple but original. It is made of
black moon-glo crepe and the front
and back panels of the waist are
trimmed with dull black beads. The
cuffs, skirt panel and skirt itself
follow the prevailing mode of rely
ing on buttons for trimming. The
waist, under the panels ani the
sleeves are made of georgette

Went Away
for the sake of Bobby. After alt, she and
God had been good to him for they had
left him his son 1
He tried to smile down Into Bobby's face
as he talked and Bobbr vied to smile back.
Each was doing his best to make tha other
understand, and each, In his way, was try
ing to hide the turelnsr wrench a.t his heart.
.And both knew what the other was suffer
ing Bobby In his wistful, boyish fashion,
and daddy In his man's suffering, which
seldom knows tho relief of a woman's tears.
"I'll tell you. llttlo man. how It Is." be
gan John Walker abruptly. "You loved
mamma Just as daddy loved her, and as
God loved her, but In a different way from
either of us. You loved her as her little
boy. and she was the best and finest mamma
In the whole wide world to you. Daddy
knows, even If ho Isn't a little boy like
you. Lots and lots of people loved mamma,
but God nnd the angels loved her more, I
guess, than wo did. And somehow I think
they needed her more than we did up In
heaven or, at least, they thought they did.
So they decided to take mamma up to them.
There are very few mammas like ours, boy.
"She did an awful lot for you and me
while she wns with us. Somo day you'll
understand how much she did for daddy
when ou grow up to bo a big man. We
ought to bo mighty grateful for mamma,
even for the little time she was with us.
for It was an honor to be as much loved
by any ono as you and I were, boy. She
gave her life to us and, and I guess In
stead of crying now because sho has gone
up with tho angels that we ought to be glad
for her. For sho Is a whole lot happier
than either you or I could make her,
Bobby. And It Is becauso she is so happy
that she sends down her little messages to
us now to tell us about It nnd to let us
know she Is thinking of us as wo are think
ing of her. For sho loves u Just na much
as ever, probably a whole lot more, boy.
And she Is so anxious for us to know It
and for us not to grieve, that sho Is think
ing of us first now, Just as she always did
when sho was down here with us, That Is
why, when you aro playing, you think she Is
Btlll In the house, waiting for you, maybe
with a piece of bread and Jam, If you have
been good. Sho wants you to know that
that Is Just what sho would be doing If
she could, and her love Is so big that It
reaches clear down from tho skies to us, to
you and to me
"Daddy feels the same way lots and lots
of times when he Is working hard, and Is
very tired, nnd Is thinking how much he
would give if he could only go homo and
find mamma waiting for him with his slip
pers and pipe and her kiss there never
was another kiss like those Mamma could
give, boy And daddy knows. So, that
Is why you and daddy think that mamma
Is always at homo, waiting for us to come
back Just, Just as we are waiting for
her!"
Daddy's voice trailed to a stop, as he
and Bobby stared Into the fire again. It
was Bobby who broke the silence rather
fearfully. "Do do you think, daddy, that
you and I will ever see Mamma again?"
"Of course wo will!" Thli time John
Walker's voice was firm and reassuring.
"When you and I get to heavon, Bobby, do
you know who will bo tho first waiting for
us after w-e see God? It will be mamma
and sho will be holding our her arms to
daddy; Just as she used to do when he came
home from the office, all tired and worn,
with everything going wrong, and she will
have one eye for you, boy, and she will try
to put her arms around both of us at once,
and we will all be crying together, but It
will be a different kind of crying, boy, for
we will all know that never, never again,
boy, will mamma go away from us ! Wo
will have her for good then, boy, forever
and forever! Won't that be bully?"
"It sure will, daddy!" echoed Bobby.
"God Is good to us, nfter all. Isn't he,
daddy?"

tion. This Is a part of the general plan of yout1
body to keep Itself In a state of prepared
ness. Tho muscles are "at attention." so
as to be ready for Instant action.
This state of attention Ib maintained by
a rapid succession of Impulses raining down
upon every muscle of the body at a rata
of ten or twelve Impulses a second.
Tho contraction Is so rapid that It pro
duces a musical note. By putting the tips
of the fingers In the ears and holding the
muscles firm nnd tenso one can hear tho
beat of a low-pitched tone that Is a llttlo
below the lowest pipe of a pipe organ. It
Is sa low as to bo felt rather than heard.
The stato of attention which Is main
tained constantly by the muscles uses up
about 40 per cent of all the energy expended
by tho body. Two-flfths of the entlro food
taken Into the body on an ordinary diet la
used up In this muscle attention. In which
no work Is demo whatever simply the hold
ing of your muscles In a state of readiness
for quick action.
And, Incidentally, this attention Is use
ful to the body, becauso It Is a means by
which heat Is produced. Thus It really
Is not wasted, since by It tho body Is kept
warm.
This explains why a person shivers when
he Is cold and the degree of tension must
be Increased In order to produce an In
creased amount of heat.
This fact Is of great physiologic Im
portance in the body. When the body Is In
a stato of attention, as when listening, or
In suspense, expectancy, apprehension,
worry, or what Is xcommonly called
"nervousness" as when one' Is restless and
cannot sit still, or has the "fidgets" tho
tension Is very greatly Increased and nat
urally the expenditure of energy Is also In
creasedmay even b'e doubled.
One may observe this hv nuttlne tlin
tips of the fingers In the cars, noting the
vibration, and then making tho arms tight.
Note how much louder the muscle note is,
showing that the expenditure of energy has
been very greatly Increased with Increased
tension.
This explains why ono becomes tired when
waiting for a train or In a doctor's office.
Few experiences are more tiresome than
waiting.
It nlBo explains why worry and nervous
ness use up energy so rapidly. One who
lives constantly In a state of high tension
may easily expend an amount of energy
equivalent to the energy consumed In walk
Ing ten or fifteen miles, or even more, every
day.
Such a use of energy Is extremely waste
ful and harmful. Nervousness and worry
thus reduce the weight of the body and
produce a haggard, worn appearance.
The body Is In a state of constant rest
only when completely relaxed. This Is
one reason why sleep In the midst of noise
Is not as refreshing as sleep under quiet
conditions. A certain amount of tension
Is maintained even during sleep, nnd this
amount Is greatly increased by noises that
cause more or less reaction, 'even though
they may not waken the sleeper.
