The
Food Value
of a Soda Cracker
Nebraska People Profit by tho
Great Earthquake and Firs at
San Francisco
P Two of the largest San Francisco
You have heard that some foods furnish fat
other foods make muscle and still others are
tissue building and heat forming
You know that most foods have one or more
of these elements but do you know that no
food contains them all in such properly balanced
proportions as a good soda cracker
The United States Government report shows
that soda crackers contain less water are richer
in the muscle and fat elements and have a much
higher per cent of the tissue building and heat
forming properties than any article of food made
from flour
That is why U need a BiSCUlt should
form an important part of every meal They
represent the superlative of the soda cracker all
their goodness and nourishment being brought
from the oven to you in a package that is proof
against air moisture and dust the price being
too small to mention

THAINED NURSES VISITING HOitES OF
PUPILS IN NEW YORK
prohensive and highly developed one
of any city in the world Not only are
physicians employed In the inspection
service but regularly graduated pro
fessional nurses are also so employed
A corps of nurses was appointed about
four years ago with a supervising nurse
in charge The medical inspectors
make systematic visits to the schools
in their respective districts and main
tain a careful oversight of the pupils
in their jurisdiction and the health con
ditions existing especially as regards
contagious diseases Each inspector
keeps a card index of each class room
so arranged that each child affected
with any contagious disease has its
name and disease entered upon the
card as soon as the disease is discov
ered A code number is used to indi
cate the malady Where the case calls
for It the child is sent home and ex
cluded from school until it is safe for
It to return Children needing treat
ment for some minor ailments are re
ferred to their family physician or to
some dispensary and allowed to remain
in school as long as they are under
treatment or until cured
In many districts where there Is a
large foreign population the Ignorance
or poverty of parents is such that the
ailing children would not receive prop
er treatment without assistance and
in these cases they are referred to the
nurse for proper instruction and care
The nurses visit the schools In their
charge each morning and have special
rooms In which they may treat chil
dren needing their attention with cer
tain specified simple remedies The
pupils are allowed to return to their
class rooms and ordered to report to
the nurse again at the proper time The
medical Inspector looks over each case
on his weekly visit so that the patient
is always under control He also gives
the nurse a list of those excluded from
school whom she visits at their homes
to Insure their having requisite care
Dr Thomas Darlington health com
missioner of New York In his last an
nual report declares that the work of
the corps of nurses has been exceed
ingly valuable to the community and
that as a result of It OS per cent of the
children who would have been exclud
ed from school are enabled to continue
In attendance and this without expos
ing any of their associates to Infection
NAVAL DISCIPLINE
PunlMhmentfi That Arc Meted Out to
BrltlMb Sallorn
For Infraction of regulations some
curious punishments are meted out In
ihe English navy It Is am everyday
says London Tit iiits to
see half a dorcn sailors lined up on
HE growth of the large cities i deck facing the paint work holding
of this country and the j their hammocks on their shoulders At
tlon of population In these first the hammock isnt heavy but aft
ters of human activity have er an hour or so It drags on ones
comnelled the municipal jrovernments t ders like lead Besides It Is not at all
entertaining to stare fixedly at a square
I foot of painted weodwork for an hour
i or more at a time
j Another punishment that Jack de
spises Is balling with a spoon He Is
I placed upon the deck with two large
wooden buckets one lllled with water
and the other empty With a spoon he
must dip all the water from one buck-
ct and transfer It to the other being
meanwhile the butt of his comrades
jests and jeers
Sometimes a delinquent Is made to
walk slowly backward and forward J
its corporate capacity along the deck nursing In his arms a
a guiding hand in such j six inch projectile weighing a little
It Is the same Idea that has over 10 pounds Once a sailor who
laughed at the stammering speech of
his commander was made to stand up-
schools but to instruction of the pupils on the forebridge in full view of tho
ships crew and laugh for an hour and
a half
Spitting upon the deck of a man-of-war
is strictly prohibited Cuspidors
are placed at Intervals along the deck
and those must be used Upon some rj 3nnmc
Include any such course as this but ships when a sailor is caught spitting
progress in educational ideas has
brought many changes
The main idea of regular Inspection
of the pupils in schools by representa
tives of the health departments is elim
ination of preventable diseases From
the nature of the case the public school
Is an excellent place for the spread of
contagious disease unless the school Is
under some such regulation Taris
was the flr3t Important municipal
ity to order the regular inspection of
schools and school children by physi
cians That was in 1S42 Boston was
the first city in this country to institute
a regular system of inspection of this
kind It took such action In 1894 and
Chicago followed in 1S95 New York
was a little slow in establishing such a
system but it now has the most com-
upon the deck a small tub is strapped
to his chest and he Is made to wear It
Any one who chooses may use this
walking receptacle The offender thus
punished rarely repeats his offense
A POTTERY TOWN
ChliiKteclion In Unlike Any
Other
place In China
For at least 900 years the town
Chlngtechen In China has been devot
ed to the making of pottery Every
thing in Chlngtechen belongs to the
porcelain and earthenware Industry
The houses are for the most part built
of fragments either of old kilns or of
the fire clay covers in which the porce
lain Is stacked during firing The riv
er bank Is for miles covered with a
deep stratum of broken chinaware and
chips of fire clay and the greater part
I of the town and several square miles
of the surrounding country are built
I over or composed of a similar deposit
Chingtechen is unlike anything else
I in China The forms the color the
I materials used In the buildings the at
mosphere are reminiscent of the poorer
parts of a civilized industrial center
There are 104 large pottery kilns in
the town The greater part are In use
only for a short season In the summer
During this busy season the population
of Chingtechen rises to about 400000
souls but of this total nearly half are
laborers drawn from a wide area of
country who come for the season live
in rows of barracklike sheds and do
not bring their families with them
Visitors to Chingtechen pass along
street after street where every shop Is
occupied by men women and children
all engaged In the designing molding
painting or distributing of pottery
The river bank is crowded for three
miles by junks either landing material
and fuel or shipping the finished prod
uct
Mannd and Maunder
Neither maund a basket nor maun
der to whine or grumble is obsolete
Both are still in common use In South
Notts and Leicestershire at any rate
The former is used only however of
a particular kind of basket used for
carrying butter to market The basket
is nearly square In shape and has two
lids opening from the middle part
where the handle is and It Is called
the butter mawn maund Maunder
is usually heard in such sentences as
What are you maundering at A
Northumbrian will say Hes a maun
dering old fool when the man of
whom he is speaking strings words to
gether in a senseless sort of way some
what akin to maudling London Notes

The Color ot the Ermine
It is a popular Idea that the ermine
sheds Its brown summer coat and that
on the approach of winter a covering
of snowy white fur takes Its place
This was a natural conclusion as a
possibility of a change In the color of
the fur had not occurred to scientists
Experiments however have been
made and the brown coated ermine
has been placed in a very low tempera
ture Almost Immediately a change
was visible in the color of the fur and
without shedding the creature became
snowy white
Smile
There are many kinds of smiles each
having a distinct character Some an
nounce goodness and sweetness oth
ers betray sarcasm bitterness and
pride some soften the countenance by
their languishing tenderness others
brighten by their spiritual vivacity-
