    Madam, Raisins
Cost Less Now
So Get Their Benefits and Their
Flavor in Scores of Attractive,
Money-Saving Foods
DUE to greatly increased crops, even
though production costs are still much
higher than in pre-war days, raisins now cost
almost as little as before the war.
Use this luscious, energizing, healthful food
lavishly, therefore, in scores of “plain foods”
like rice pudding, boiled rice, bread pudding,
Indian pudding, and in cake, cookies, pie, and
with the children’s cereals, to give them “lux
ury flavors” at “plain food” costs.

“What is the name of your child,

“Shakespeare, sail.”
“That's queer. Why did you name

Moveable Mark.
A player and Ids caddy started off
from the first tee. The man’s drive
had hooked badly into the rough. They
hunted for the ball for some time
and then the man turned to the boy
and said: “Caddy, did you mark my
ball?” “Yes,” he answered, “I marked
It.” “What by?” asked the man. “By
a bird,” said the boy, “but If flew
away.”—Judge.
To Remove Tarnish.
To remove tarnish from silver, put
one tablespoonful of borax powder in
each quart of water. Put in the silver
and bring to boiling point. Wipe with
a flannel cloth. It gives a wonderful
polish and saves time, labor and sil
ver.
She Had Her License Safe.
A tall, willowy young woman at Sev
enth avenue and Thirteenth street, ,
New York, was reciting her complaint
to an officer, charging a taxi driver I
who had jolted her car with failure I
to observe traffic regulations. The
driver protested that she lied.
“I’ll bring a complaint against her,"
said the driver. “She hasn't got a
license.”
“Yes, I have.”
“Well, where is it?” asked the driver.
“Do I have to show it to him?” she
asked the policeman.
“Show it to me,” tie said.*
Without flinching, she lifted her
skirts knee high, and produced the
much desired license from her stock
ing.
Ancient Greeks Took Gymnastics.
In every Greek city was established
a gymnasium where crowds of young
men exercised themselves naked. This
institution was originally intended for
those only who were in training for
the Olympic games, but afterward it
became part of the daily life. The
Greeks went to the gymnasium with
the same regularity as the Homans
went to the bath.—WInwood Iteade in
“The Martyrdom of Man.”

Universal Service.
Washington, Oct. 17.—A regular
army of 12,000 officers ancV 125,000
men. such as wa,s appropriated for by

Secretary Weeks so stated follow
ing a conference Monday with Presi

tary added:
"It is still maintained that a regu
lar force of 13.000 officers and 130,000
enlisted men, exclusive of the Philip
pine scouts, is necessary in order to
perform properly the missions of the
regular army Inculcated under the na
tional defense act of 1920. Such a
force is required if there is to be
the contemplated effective instruc
tion. provision for a trained nucleus,
and police of our foreign possessions.
Comparisons should not bo made
with pre-war strength or expendi
tures. The nation has greater res
ponsibilities. rapidity of mobilization
is a more important factor, and many
more weapons must be maintained."
The war department will ask for an
appropriation of $329,287,580 as
against $340,884,122 appropriated for
the current fiscal year. Of tills
amount $259,428,175 would tie spent
for maintenance of the actual mili
tary establishments, the remainder
being for departmental expenses, riv
