Russia, In Kngland or in America, the topic of conversation Is usually the I same ; the high, cost of food. The American housewife should not j waste any pity on herself, for she Is faring better than the housewives of 1 o-her lands. Food Is cheaper In pro portion to wages In America than In i any other warring country. I i'rlres do, however, make the most rigid economc Imperative In most fami lies here. 1 Now, there are ways and ways of ' being economical in setting one's table I But the most foolish way Is to buy hap hazard, cutting out milk for the chll- 1 dren one week and the next economizing , by having only one vegetable at dinner. Many housewives, too, spend an en- 1 tirelv undue nronortlon on meat, which Is tf-.e most expensive article of food. It Is never so easy to do without meal 1 as now tn tne summer monins, wnen fruits and vegetables are plentiful. It Is much better economy to set aside a certain part of the family budget for food every week and divide this portion In seme such way as the follow ing: (a) Spend from one-quarter to one third of the total food money for bread, cereals and rice. (b) Buy at least from one-third to I on.-h.lf quart of milk a day for each adult member of the family and three quarters of a epiart for each child. (c) Spend, as much for fruit and vecetables together as for milk. (d) Spend not more for meat and eggs together than for vegetable", and fruit. The amount spent for meat may be decreased as the amount t-pent for I milk and vegetables Increases.

It was filled with necessary duties from the tlmo she left for business In the morning to the time when she crept wearily Into bed at night. "I don't want to do the things that mother does so willingly," she confessed to Myra. "Knitting for tho soldiers has no thrill for me, and yet I want to do something. Must we all do the same kind of service?" "Of course not." Myra returned quickly. "There are ad kinds of service, and the kind you enjoy doing most Is tho kind you will do best.

Why don't you help peo ple who are sacrificing most?" "What do you mean?" "Well, think of the people who are suffering hard, the people with loved ones at the front, the shut-ins who need cheering up.

MARNE HERO SURPRISES FAMIL YBY Lieutenant Wilson .Stephenson heralded, With Wounded Men, and Tells Vivid Tale of Yankee Heroism tlBL'TRNANT WILSON STEPHEN. I J RON, 1149 Cayuga street, ,etern of the Marne, who since last May had been In France and since the Fourth of July had been almost constantly tn ac tion at the front, calmly walked in Upon his family, without notice yesterday, and announced that he was going to be here awhile, Instructing In the camps. Lieutenant Stephenson went over In May In Company I, 109th Infantry. He has returned with about HO men, him self one of the few among them who are still whole. "There were ten poor fellows who were blind -wounds, sudden explosions," he explained. "They were perfectly cheerful except one, who was pretty badly marked up In the face. He was afraid his girl wouldn't be able to stand It. "I don't know how I got out of It per fectly whole. Sometimes I've been talking to a fellow not two yards away. and had a shell explode, nnd he'd he gone. 1 began to get pretty religious. "Our regiment got Into It on the Fourth. We heard that the riutchtes were going to give It to us somewhere hctween the Fourth of July and the Itlh just by way of celebrating a bit, Thank God we didn't fight In trenches, but In the woods and wheat fields. "On the Fourth wp Americans, one division, were stationed at ft point on the Marne. The Germans let us have It, hut our orders were not lo move; there' was nothing to do but stick there. It was tho first Urne most of those men of ours had seen the real thing. Utterly Kearregs "And here Is one point to know about the Americans. They nre absolutely without fear of the Germans. They want to get at them with their bare hands, though the Dutchles want to keep at a distance, of course. "When the order comes to the Yankees to go over the top they pitch away their packs and go over with their guns In one hand and a trench knife In the other. They seem to he convinced that the German doesn't live who can harm them. "There, when you get In the fighting, you get perfectly calm. You don't think of death nnd you don't think of the dead. This first time I raw a man blown up I nearly gave up the ghost. But In a few I days they lay all over, and you hardly gave It a thought wnen a man oropp.ja beside you. "It Isn't bruttshness. but a sort of merciful callousness. The bullets come steadily from the machine guns; there are-ever so many different sounds, which you learn to distinguish almost before you hear them. The gas bombs Just give ft sort of soft puff, the shells whis tle and then comes a deafening explo sion, the machine-gun pellets are drop ping all the time. Fight Four DlvUlonn "On the 14th the Americans had lo withstand one of the most terrible bar rages of the war. And the.v'vo earned the right with their blood to say that they broke the German drive then. Four of the crack German divisions could not break through that one American divi sion. "Most of the warfare was skirmishing round, getting Iri'o position at night and firing away like the dickens during the day. The Germans were In the woods and we were in the open. Once we no ticed a funny thing. We saw some men come out of the woods carrying stretchers on which lay bodies. They were dressed In French and American uniforms and took their time. It turned out that 'hey were uermans and the bodies on the stretchers were simply machine guns with a little novel camou flage. Before that they tried a similar trick with ihe uniforms.
