to nearly one-half the
of this entile world.
V -1 riotmlation
-There is every icaxon why rice
fehould be a daily article of diet in
planning the menu. It is more nutri
tious than the potato and it digests
very readily. When pioperly cooked
and served it is an ideal starchy food.
Unpolished rice contains all the
nutriment of the grains, which is ap
proximately 0 per cent fat, 8 per
.. .
cent protein, 7!) per cent caibohy
drates. The polished vaiiety con
tains an average of 88 per cent nutii
ment. Polished rice has been lobbed
of its vital life-giving elements.
Rice is graded for size and condi
tion and is then prepaied for the
trade. It is known as fancy head
rice, choice, prime, good, medium,
common and screenings. Pat nn rice,
the small, slender, well-rounded
grain, is in great demand in tho Kast,
, with the Japan, Siam, Java, Ran
goon and Basscin varieties closely
following. In this country the Caro
lina, Japan and Honduras are popu
larly in demand.
The Carolina rice is a large, svveet
fiavorcd grain of good color and ap
pearance. Japanese rice is a thick
bodied, soft-grained vanety. Hon
duras variety is the slender, well
shaped grain.
The preparation of rice for the
markets involves, first, the threshing
and, second, the milling, which ic
moves the husks, and, third, the pol
ishing to produce the pearly white
gloss which so many folks think is
very desirable.
Polished rice has been robbed of
nearly all its fat and mineial con
tent, and thus its food value is low
ered and it is deprived of its flavor. I
The rice dishes as prepared in the I
Oriental countries are made from
fancy unpolished head rice and they
form some of the main dishes.
The Oliental first washes his lice
jn several waters, rubbing it vigot
ously between the hands. This thor-
nmrVi1v cleans it- Now. to follow this
method have a saucepan containing
boiling water and then add the rice
slowlv. so that the water continually
Wiila CnnVr until tpnder ami then
remove the lid from tho saucepan
.-.,..., il-- -i ...lit, ll.
ifanu cover inu ncu wim u v-ium iu
absorb the moisture. Set in a warm
place for five minutes.
This will give a saucepan contain
ing a mass of delicious, fluffy lice,
each grain distinct and separate.
., Now, if you carefully measure
00th your rice and then the water,
it will not be necessary for you to
drain off the excess water and thus
lose the valuable mineial and fat
content.
How to Cook Rice American Style
Place in a double boiler two nnd
one-half cups of boiling water and
then add one teaspoon' of salt. Now
add blowly one-half cup of well-
washed unpolished rice. Cover and
cook until the rice is tender and the
water absorbed. Remove the lid and
then cover the rice closely with a
clean napkin apd cook for five min
utes. This will fluff each grain of
tice.
It is now ready to serve, cither
.plain as a vegetable to replace the
t potato or prepared into many de
lectable dishes that our Oriental
neighbors relish so keenly.

The cultivation of rice in Louisi
ana is more than a hundred years
old. Louisiana now piocluces a crop
of this cereal larger than the entire
crops of the states of Georgia and
Carolina. The tourist who visits
Louisiana during the time of the rice
market enjoys a scene that is rarely
duplicated elsewhere in tho civilized
world, for here are gathered the buy
ers fiom all paits of tho country.

Uiiental, has tho true soerfct for

OVERLOOKING THE THINGS
IN CHILDREN'S HEARTS
The Story of a Little Boy Who Tried to Keep His Mother From
Seeing WJiat He Had in His Hand
TTI3 WAS sh nnd he wns Mealing In
the living room at o'clock Knstcr
Saturday night with something behind
his hack. There is no denying lie looked
suspicious ns he skirted around Hie
blown wicker lofker where his mother
happened to be sitting.
"Here, here!" she snld. "what have
jou been up lo? What have you got
behind your haik?
The little son, who was six, looked
embarrassed, woiried nnd proceeded 'to
Ho manfully.
"Haven't got nn.v thing," he said.
'Come here nnd let mother see."
No nnsvver and then and there, in
that awful moment nf silence, something
tragic, happened. Three 'niekcN nnd n
half dollar jingled lo the lloor.
"Why, Robert," mine fiom fiis
astonished mother, "you've been nt
mother's hag. You never did that be
fore. Why, Robert. I'm surprised.
C01110 right heic to mother.','
And just nt this moment another
tragedy happened a real tragedy. The
little fellow walked slowly over lo bis
mother. A lillle hand, hot nnd drtmp
wllli having held something very tight,
uiine from its hiding place. H held a
caidboard bo with the cover hnlf slip
ping olT, and there in nil its splendor
was a lnige chocolate egg. mnrkeil in
wliitn sugar timing with the word
"mother."'
rpill.3 emotions on the pnrt of the
- mother veie indescribable. When
she looked up from her Knster piesent
to the little hoy who hnd tried so hard
to surprise her, she saw the (.orners of
his mouth turn slowly down. Then the
child heaved that sob which indicates
hroken-heait in little liojs nnd girls,
nnd he cried as though his little lieait
hnd broken. Sobbed and sobbed, held
tight in his inothci's nrms, for at least
half an hour. In vain she rocked him and
coaxed nnd pleaded and told him how
sorry she was. Hut there was no
binding the wound.
Wlieif the sobs died down in short,
gaspy breaths he told how he had taken
the moifcy from his bank all there was
in it to buy the l'nster egg. And he
