Clttle Miss Naturally Connected Cruel
ty of the Savior's Slayers With
German Character.
Mary was a very eerious-mlnded
young miss of ten and was keenly In
terested In the religious education of
her younger slstor, Dorothy, aged six.
Indeed, she felt that the little sister's
education In Biblical stories had been
sadly neglected. One day she con
flded to her mother that Dorothy was
very Ignorant on the subject of the
ruclflxlon and the resurrection and
should bo enlightened before tho next
Easter time came around.
The mother suggested to Mury that
he be the one to (ell the little sister
tho stories, and to make them Just as
vivid and real as she could.
This Mary did, and at the close of
tho recital tho only comment made by
Dorothy was this:
"Say, were those men" Germans?"

SPRINGTIME FOODS.
II Is necessary to havo a system of
houseclennlng when the eniiy spring
greens appear, for
tho sluggish body
often overfed
needs' the rejuve
nating of fresh
mineral filled foods
to prepare us for
the work of the
summer. Bilious
ness nnd vnrlous
kindred Ills may be completely routed
by a careful diet of vegetables and n
free uso of fruits.
Jaturo provides us In tho spring
just the foods we need, without re
sorting to the time-honored sulphur
nnd molasses treatment, through which
mnny of us hnvc suffered.
Tho dandelion contains tnraxlcum
the tonic which Is In so many spring
medicines. This nets directly on tho
liver, stimulating It to healthy action
Tho Inck of exercise in winter Is one
of the worst features of our living, for
cxerclso Is life to the body. Tho liver
from lnnctlvlty and plenty of food bo-
conies clogged and does not do Its
work, hence biliousness and various
other annoying Ills. Tho liver Is one
of the most Important orgnns In tho
body and must be kept free to work Its
process of elimination. When clogged
the whole mnchlnery of. tho body Is
out of order.
How much plensnnter It Is to ent a
dish of crisp, fresh greens than to take
unpleasant-tasting medicine. Tho use
of good olive oil on salads makes them
more valuable, as the oil is a food, It
Is healing to inflamed tissues, it lubri
cates the tissues and stimulates tho ac
tion of tho liver.
Cowslips are another early vegetable
which may be found In almost any
neighborhood, tho exercise used In go
ing for, nnd bringing them home Is not
tho least of their value. Spinach,
Swiss chard, pepper grass and lettuce
should bo found In every garden.
Fresh fruit, dried fruit nnd green
vegetables are the best of spring medi
cines. Those who do not llko ollvo oil may
hnvo been turned against it by being
served with a rnncld oil or one of in
ferior quality. Oil should bo sweet,
nutty nnd of n most uppetlzlng odor
and taste.
Early radishes may bo raised long
before tho garden crop Is ready by put
ting a few seeds into n hotbed, or a
large flower urn, cover with glass for
n while, and with plenty of water the
radishes will soon be ready for tho
tnble. If you are fortunate enough to
live nenr n running brook whore witter
cress prows, you have one of the best
curly spring greens ns well us ouo of
the best blood tonics.
There Is nn Idea abroad among moral
peoplo tlmt they should, make their
neighbors good. One person I have to
make good: myself.
MORE GOOD THINGS FOR SICK.
Vegetables which aro tender and
delicate such ns nsparngus tips, ten
der green onions, cnull
flower nnd various other
combinations which wU
occur to those who must
prepnve dainty foods or
food' for the sick.
Aspnrngus or green
onions cooked until ten
der then served on tonst
with butter or a white
sauce Is good. A grat
ing of nutmeg Is n stlmu-
luting seasoning to add to any dish,
unless the patient objects to the
flavor.
Glazed Sweetbreads. Parboil the
heart sweetbread, drain and remove
nil connecting tissue, then placo In a
ramekin. Dissolve n teaspoonful of
beef extract In two tenspooufuls of
boiling water, season with salt and
paprika nnd pour over the sweetbread.
Cook in u hot oven basting often.
When glazed over .transfer to a hot
dish, surround with seasoned hot pens
nnd servo nt once.
Cilbbngo, when It is allowed Is very
nlco shredded very line, crisped In
cold water and served after drying
well, with French dressing. This snlnd
Is especially good to follow tho sweet
bread.

be nny objection to the bird itself,
why tell them nil the details. The
sparrow Is n grain eating bird and
there should bo absolutely no more
objection to them than to the squab
or pigeon.
A simple snlad such ns head lettuce
with French dressing may often bo
served, chopped celer, shredded let
tuce, cottage cheese, ns well as water
cress are all good at times.
Flaked Eggs. Break two eggs Into
a bowl and bent just long enough to

WARTIME SUGGESTIONS.
Hominy with crenm and sugnr makes
a most substantial dish, nnd one which
may bo either served as
a breakfast dish or as u
dessert.
Hominy may bo easily
prepared nt home, using
hnrdwoort ushes for tho
lye, boiling tho corrt In
lye wnter until tho hulls
nre softened so that they
mny bo rubbdd off. A
large uisn mny bo pre
pared nt one timo, keep
ing it In a cool place, or it mny be
canned for use In sulnmer If desired.
Potted Hominy and Meat. Chicken
Is especially good In combination with
corn nnd tho following wll bo found to
bo a most satisfying dish : If tho fresh
hominy Is used It steeds no soaking or
cooking, but for the dried lioinlny take
two cupfuls, sonk It over night and
cook In n double boiler or flreless cook
er for four hours, or until tender. Melt
two tnblespoonfuls of fat, udd two ta-
blespoonfuls of flour, and when well
mixed ndd two cupfuls of milk; cook
until thick. Add four diced potatoes,
two cupfuls of diced carrots, a tea
spoonful of salt and a cupful of any
cooked or dried meat. Mix all together
und bake for one hour.
Rice, Peas and Tomatoes. Souk
two cupfuls of dried peas In two
quarts of water. Cook until tender In
water In which they soaked. Add one
and one-half cupfuls of cooked rice,
six sliced onions, a tablespoonful of
salt, a quarter of teaspoonful of pep
per, two cupfuls of stewed tomatoes
and cook 20 minutes. ,
Dried fruits well soaked und cooked
until tender will need but little or no
sugnr to make them palatable.
Fish en Casserole. Ilemovo skin
and bono from pickerel, or tho carp
ninkes good eating served In this way.
Placo In a casserole, cover with any
good vegetable water and a table
spoonful of vinegar. Add threo slices
of onion, n nay icur, three peppor
corns, three slices of lemon, a tea
spoonful each of sugur and salt.
Cover and bako until the flsh is ten
der. Remove tho flsh and thicken the
broth, then servo in tho dish in which
It was baked.

FEEDING YOUNG DAIRY STOCK
Where Milk Is Not Available It Is Eco
nomical to Supply Protein by
Uso of Legumes. (
(Prepared by the United States Depart
mcnt of Agriculture)
It Is a common practice nmong
dairymen to feed skim milk until tho
cnlf Is approximately six months or
age. Usunlly tho time of weaning de
pends upon the availability and cost
of tho milk.
When milk is fed In nbundnnco it
furnishes the greater part of tho pro
tein necessnry for tho growth of tho
animal. If no milk Is fed It becomes
necessary for the protein to bo pro
vided from some other source. Praj-
nbly this enn bo doilo most econom
ically by tho uso of some legume, such
ns alfalfa, clover, soy beans, or cow-
pea hny. When hay of this sort Is
not avallnblo it is necessary to provide
the bulk of tho protein through n grain
mixture. In cither case, plenty of
roughage should be supplied to the
growing heifer nt nil times. During
summer, when good pnsturc Is nvnll-
able, the heifer needs no supplement-
nry feed, nlthough n little hay nnd
grain nre sometimes ndvlsnblo Into in
tho season to Insure steady growth.'
Part of tho roughage should bo sil
age, if it is available. A heifer of
six months to one year of ngo will
consume from G to 15 pounds of sll-
nge n day. The grain mixture used
may be mndo up of (1) 3 parts of
cracked corn, nnd 1 pnrt whewt bran;
(2) or 3 parts cracked corn, 1 pnrt
wheat bran, nnd 1 part ground onts;
(3) or 3 parts cracked corn, 1 part
wheat bran, 1 part ground onts, and
1 part linseed meal; (4) or 4 parts
cracked corn, 1 pnrt wheat bran, 1
part ground oats, nnd 1 part blood
meal. Either 1, 2, or 4, together with
all tho alfalfa, clover, or cowpea lfny
that tho heifer will eat, makes a good
ration. In case no leguminous hay
such as that Just mentioned con be ob
tained, No. 3 Is advised, because it
contains more protein. Another ex-
Calves Should Be Encouraged to Eat
Good Roughage at an Early Age.
cellent grain mixture, to bo used when
such hny Is lacking, Is composed of
2 pnrts of cornmenl, 2 pnrtH, of lin
seed meal, and 1 part of bran.
The, quantity of grain to bo fed dc-
pends-vory largely upon tho Individual
animal's growth and condition, ns well
as upon tho price of the grain. Some
feeders doslro n rapid growth of tho
young nnlmnls, and for this reason
feed heavily with grnln, while others
nre satisfied with n slow growth and
try to carry their young stock largely
on roughage. Either extreme Is un
wise and a medium course between the
two Is advisable. A safe rule to fol
low is to feed one pound of grnln for
tho first hundredweight of tho heifer
and one-half pound for each addition
al hundredweight.
After the heifer rcilchus (ftie ycur
of age, tho following rations aro sug
gested : Cornmenl, fed according to tho
rule Just mentioned, together with nil
the alfalfa, clover, or cowpea hay that
tho nnlmnl will consume. If no leg
uminous hny Is available, grain com
posed, of 2 parts corhmeul, 1 of brun,
und 1 of linseed mcnl, gluten meal,
or cottonseed meal, nnd 10 to 20
pounds of silage, together with all the
dry roughage that the animal can con-
Bumc, will ho found to be adequate,
Under ordinary circumstances n gain
of nt least n pound a day from tho
time of weaning to the time of first
culvlng is a good averago for a dairy
heifer.
