Beware the Cold
Storage Egg! In his
work on food and dietetics
Doctor Robert Hutchison
says, "the absence of carbo
hydrates prevents eggs
from being in any sense a
complete food." This refers
to the fresh egg—the egg
with a clean bill of health.
What would the Doctor
say of the modern cold
storage egg? At present
prices two eggs cost ten
cents—and the egg is not
a complete food! Some
thing must be eaten with it
to supply the needed carbo
hydrates. Two Shredded
Wheat Biscuits, with cream
or milk, make a complete,
perfect meal at a cost of
four or five cents. Made at
Niagara Falls, N. Y.
CALLS THIS MOST
FRIVOLOUS AGE
Dr. Spangler Declares People
No Longer Are Serious
Minded
"The most frivolous age of modern
times" is what the Rev. Dr. James T.
Spangler, head ot the chair of philo
sophy of Lebanon Valley College and
former pastor of the First United
Brethren Church, this city termed the
present period of world history in an
address 011 religious education last
night at the Derry Street United
Brethren Church.
Dr. Spangler declared that serious
mindedness is practically obsolete and
that it is seldom if ever found among
the younger people of the present
day.
"Frivolity on every hand is what
we meet," declared Dr. Spangler. "The
theater, the moving pictures, even the
church in many instances is given over
to frivolity. AI..X in the schools and
universities a serious-minded attitude
in the student body is indeed hard to
find. The young people are swept
away in the spirit of the age. While
1 was a pastor in this city 1 looked in
vain of an evening for drama or mo
tion picture entertainments of an ele
vating character. I watched the bill
hoards continuously for some evidence
of productions which were other than
frivolous. And I found not more than
a dozen such in a whole year's time."
Dr. Spangler laid the present day
frivolity to the failure of parents to
teach their children the Bible's teach
ings and pointed out that the family
altar is a thing of the past in the
great majority of professedly Chris
tian homes.
TWO BADLY BURNED

GIVES TIPS TO CIVIC
CULB ON PRICES
[Continued From First Page]
by Chief Sweeney, of tlie State Bu
reau ot' Standards, and It is probable
that the action of the local Civic Club
will be followed by other similar or
ganizations throughout the city.
Throughout his tallc Mr. Reel im
pressed upon the members of the Civic
Club the importance of obtaining
proper weight for the loaf of bread,
bushel of potatoes, quart of beans, etc.,
which are usually sold otherwise than
by weight.
In discussing the bread situation
Mr. Reel said:
"Some time ago when flour was sell
ing for a lower figure than it Is being
sold to-day the 5-ccnt loaf of bread
weighed 1G to 17 ounces, while to-day
the .average weight of the 5-cent loaf
is 11 ounces or less. In fact, I have
recently found them to weigh as low
as ounces. In recent weighings I
found bread to vary two ounces to the
loaf for fresh bread delivered on the
same day in the same store, and when
I told two owners of the largest bak
eries in this city about it they told me
it was due to the carelessness of their
help in scaling the weight of dough.
This struck me as a remarkable state
ment.
"After this convention had been
held and Mr. Sweeney had told the
public through the newspapers that
there was no occasion for any Increase
in the price of bread, representatives
of the largest bakeries called at my
office to defend the position they had
taken about the increase and said that
flour had advanced in •price to such
an extent, also other Ingredients used
In the making of bread, that they
wquld likely be compelled to advance
their prices.
"I asked them why they were so
anxious to let the public know of the
Increase lit the price of flour, and MO
forth, but were no|. anxious for the
public to know that they had reduced
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
the weight of a Rpcent loaf of bread
from as high as 17 ounces to, as X said
before, as low as 9'j ounces. 1 also
asked them why tliey did not let the
public know about the reduction of
the weight and was informed by one
of the owners that the consumer was
getting as much, if not more, than he
was entitled to at the present time,"
declared the staler.
"My advice to you is to weigh your
bread, find out who is baking the
heaviest loaf, and then buy that make
of bread. Tills Will, in my mind, do
more toward establishing a. standard
weight for a loaf of bread than any
other method I can think of because
of the. act that each' baking concern
will do Its utmost to hold Its trade and
will bo more careful to see that its
bread is holding out in the weight and
not have so much variation.
"Another thing that should be con
sidered by the housekeepers is the
buying of dry commodities by the
pound Instead of, by measure, the laws
of Pennsylvania having fixed the
standard of weights per bushel on
most all dry commodities, and it is
your duty to see that the proper weight
is delivered and not accept the deal
er's statement that he gave you full
measure. This also applies to com
modities when purchased- in the sub
divisions of the bushel, such as a
quarter-peck, half-peck, and so on.
To liauucli a Campaign
"My remarks this afternoon will, I
hope, be the means of the fnembers of
your organization starting a campaign
in this city that will result In the mer
chants adopting the system of selling
all dry commodities by the pound,
thereby doing something that- cannot
help but prove beneficial t6 that class
who can least afford to be imposed
upon by the dealer who can see'noth
lng good in keeping up to the times in
anything except to take advantage of
the helplessness of those who are un
able to protect themselves. Progres
sive merchants all agree that this is,
the proper method and your organ
ization can If you will do a lot to help
the unanimous adoption of selling by
weight Instead of by measure."

Cavalrymen Must
"Acclimate" Themselves
Points Out Dr. Raunick
Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, city health
officer, to-<fay issued a warning to the
cavalrymen returning from the bor
der that they "acclimate" themselves
JANUARY 15, 1917.
to Northern conditions before taking
any chances out of doors.
"It is just as necessary for men to
become acclimated when coming from i
a .Southern to li Northern climate as
for l.qrses.
"However, most people .forget this
and fail to lake even the ordinary!
precaution. Only yesterday I saw men i
exercising horses brought through the
city by the Fourth Infantry, who did j
not even wear overcoats The horses I
were heavily blanketed and scarcely a
bit of their anatomy was exposed to [
the air except the eyes and legs. The !
men exercising the animals took far
better care of them than they did of!
themselves.
"Instead of running around in the
weather the troopers who are mem
bers of Company C or any other com
pany in the Pennsylvania Cavalry
Division had better stay indoors for
