Summer Foods.
Meat and meat -like foods are heat
intensifiers. The adult requires very
little meat to maintain health. Many
learners in perfect health have never
used it at all. Denmark, by a wise
study of the nation's food resources
and by instruction based on a knowl-
edge of scientific facts, maintained
the nation's health during the food
stringency of the Great War, without
destroying her great dairy herds, the
may possible source of meat during
that period.
Combinations of. .foods, into which
meats and fats enter largely, should
not be used during warm weather,
bee::arc digestion in such weather
should not he delayed, and mixtures
of the difreeent types of food are
dige:-.ted less quickly than when the
materials are served sing'Iy.
A'1 cereals must be thoroughly
cooked. Thir is important at all times
but duras; the summer months it is
r .,iive.

Me:: vegetables enter into the early
spring and summer dietary, Wild
greens, sack as dandelions, cowslips,,
deck or pigweed, and the cultivated
apinacha Swiss chard, beet tops, let -
titre and asparae'ns, during the sum-
mer months, are the friends of man,
as Weed are all the summer vege-
tebles. radishes, onions, tomatoes, and
the fruits, remarkable for their cool-
ing arid properties.
The products of the garden should
appear en the table for breakfast, din-
ner and supper. Children should be
required to use them freely. Adults
who do net use them cern their pun-
ishn:ent.
The greens, I have mentioned may
be cooked 'n the simplest way. Pick
therm over carefully and discard all
yell -t:• or withcr'ed leaves. Wash in
eevcral tvaicre in mimeo sand or grit.
Thee : tabid give up their jukes

not be cc.ekcd in a large quantity of
water,•Put fete the kettle just enough
beilirat water to prevent burning; add
the greens, cover and let simmer for
half an hour, then lift the cover and
let the liquor boil down. When the
gracna are tender drain them, and
use the liquor as a basis for any kind
of sauce to be served as an accompani-
ment. If the vegetable is to be served
simply with butter, salt and pepper,
ase the liquor in soup. It is too valu-
able to throw away as it usually con -
tans the, dissolved minerals which
make vegetables such cooling foods.
There aro at least six Ways in which
greens may be served:
1. With salt, pepper and butter.
2, Garnish with hard boiled eggs;
put the yolks through the vegetable
ricer- and cut the whites into rings.
Save as in I,
3. Serve with a white sauce, made
with one-half cupful milk, one table-
spoonful butter, one tablespoonful
flour.
4. Serve with i'inegar or lemon
juice, salt and pepper.
G. Serve With any well -liked salad
dressing".
6. Serve on toast garnished with
strips el pimento.
Clean the Babyle Teeth.
Good sight is perhaps the most ing-
portant thing in life, yet more than
one-fifth of the men rejected for army'
sorviee wore rejected because of de-
fective sight and one-half as many
more were rejected because of poor
teeth, Mothers are urged to give
more attention to the care of the eyes
and teeth of their children.
The child's teeth should be cleaned
as soon as it has any. Wrap a bit of
eternized muslin around the finger,
dip in boraeic acid solution, and swab
the mouth and teeth each morning,
As the child grows older, teach him
to brush his own teeth at least Wee

Dumb Patience.
Ally number of girls can play this
game. Place in a circle as many
chairs, less two, as there are players;
then set another chair in the centre
of the circle. Turn the hacks of the
chars toward the centre and leave
sufficient space between every tu'o
chairs to allow a person to pass,
Choose one gift to direct the game and
one to represent dumb Patience. The
director stands, the others sit; Pa-
tience occupies the chair in the centre
of the circle. She may not speak, but
she may laugh, cry or make other
sounds. The director's business is to
watch Patience and to tell the other
players, who of course have their
backs turned, just what she is doing;
they, on their part, must imitate Pa-
tience in everything. For example, if
Patience laughs, the director calls,
"Patience laughs," and aII the others
must laugh; if she goes through the
motion of brushing her hair, the di-
rector says, "Patience brushes her
hair," and they must all do it. The
director is the only player who may
speak.
When Patience gets tired she leaves
her chair, passes out of the circle and
runs round the others, who jump up.
and follow her. When she sits down,
all sit down, except the one who fails
to get a seat; she must •be Patience
for the next round of the game.
Clock Coolcics.
The older sister of a little girl
invalid who had to take disagreeable
medicine every day thought of the
following scheme: Every day she made
some round cookies and spread on
each cooky a pink or a white frosting.
Then, with a clean camel's-hair brush
dipped in chocolate icing, she painted
on the frosting a clock dial that show-
ed the sugar hands at the hour at
which her sister was to take her medi-
cine. If the little girl refused to take
it, she forfeited the cooky that pro-
claimed the portentous hour,

CHAPTER X.
A Mortifying Question.
Marjorie was taken to her room,
where a physician attended her. Henry
li eifinloelc was examined and testified
substantially as follows:
"I had dinner lust evening with
Judge Blackburn, and afterward we
went to his study where we sat talk-
ing for perhaps an hour. In the course
of our conversation we disagreed on
a certain matter, and I'nr afraid that
each of us became more heated than
was necessary. In any event, we
parted in anger. I returned a little
Dater and apologized for my display
of temper. After that I went home.
I knew nothing of his death until a
detective came to my house about ten
o'clock last night and placed me under
arrest."
"You say you had a dis grement,"
the coroner remarked, "Willcement
you tell
us, please, what you disagreed about'?"
"It was really nothing of moment,"
said the lawyer in his calm, precise
way. "It was, in fact, a quite trivial
matter, and my only reason for men-
tioning it is to explain why I returned
to Judge Blackburn's study."
"How long, did you remain with him
the second time?"
"A few minutes only. I went away
again almost immediately."
"Did you see any person as you
went out?"
"Yes;I saw Miss Blackburn and
Mr. Quinn."
"Where were they?"
"In Miss Blackburn's sitting room."
"Did either of them see you?" asked
the coroner.
"I think not. Both had their backs
toward me."
"You didn't speak to them, or other-
wise draw their attention?"
"No; I merely glanced into the
room as I passed, and walked on."
"Did you notice anything there—
or anywhere else before leaving the
house that might arouse suspicion?"
"Yes. On the desk in the sitting -
room, I saw a pearl -handled revolver."
"Is this the revolver you saw?"—
and the coroner passed the weapon to
hint.
"It appears to be the same one."
"While you were here last night, did
Judge Blackburn say anything in
your presence that would indicate he
was expecting sudden death?"
"He showed are an anonymous let-
ter, threatening his life."
"Is this the letter he showed you?"
asked the coroner, handing him the
sheet of note -paper.
Mcrinlock read the message, exam -
hied the paper carefully on both sides
and returned it, "Yes, that's the one."
At this juncture Quinn scribbled
something on the back of an envelope.
Unnoticed he slipped it -to a fellow
reporter, who, after reading it, quietly
laid it on the table before the coroner.
The coroner's eye fell upon the note,
as he was asking a question of no
great importance. He asked two or
three more and then, unexpectedly,
said:
"Mr. Mcrinlock, have you ever pro-
posed marriage to Miss Blackburn?"
The pointblank interrogation had a
startling effect upon the attorney. His
cool self-assurance, which had char-
acterized him up till now, vanished
instantly. Pante seized him.
"W—why," he stammered, his face
reddening"why since you ask are
—yes. But I quite fail to see how your
question has any relation—"
"When did you propose marriage to
her?"
"S think—if I remember correctly—
yes, it was the day before yesterday.
But what bearing has this—"
The coroner again cut him short:
"What answer did she give you?"
Why, my dear man!" sputtered the
lawyer, beside himself with angry con-
fusion. "You surely don't expect—"
"Answer the question, please."
"And if I don't?"
"You refuse to answer it?"
"I do—emphatically!"
"Very well." The coroner turned to
his assistant: "Recall Miss Blackburn
to the witness chair."
CHAPTER XL
"I Hilted Judge Blackburn!"
Marjorie's physician sent word
that the girl was unable to leave her
roam at this moment. Zuttermeister
was questioned instead.
"Did you see Mr. Henry McKinloek
go to Judge Blackburn's study last
night at a little past nine o'clock?"
the coroner asked.
"Yes, sir."
"Aid you see him depart?"
"No, sir." •
"Tell us all you know concerning
the death of Judge Blackburn."
"I opened the door for Mr. Merin -
lock when he called here the second
time last evening, and announced his
arrival to my employer. I then came
downstairs and told Mr. 14Iddinloek
the judge would see him. After that, I
went outdoors—"
"•One moment! Why did you go out-
dorii?"
"I often stroll outside of an even-
ing," he said calmly, "just to get a
breath of fresh air before turning in
for the night,"
"While you were outdoors last
night," pursued the coroner, "did. you
speak to anybody?"
"Yes, sir. I generally walk back
to the garage for a good night that
with the chauffeur, Frederick Rieke,
and. I was with him last night when
I hoard Inc two revolver shots. I
rushed back to the house and ran
upp. stairs to the judge's study. I hound
Mr, Quinn there. Judge Blackburn
was dead."
"What ivas Mr, 'Quinn doing?"
"Ile was standing near the desk,
and I saw him put the revolver—the
same one that you've exhibited here,
air—in his overcoat pocket. Ile then
hurriedly searched the judge's desk
until he found the slice of blue note-
paper, which he also pocketed."
"Was Mr. Quinn in Judge Mack -
burn's study when you announced the
arrival of Mr. McKinlock?"
"Yes, sir,"
"Did you overhear anything they
said to each ether?"
"1 overheard enough to warrant the
belief that they were not on friendly
terms. I gathered that they had dis-
agreed about Miss Blackburn, also
about the heritage which she was to
receive from her uncle," With this
damning bit of testimony, the serv-
ant's examination ended.
Frederick Hicks, the chauffeur, was
called, He corroborated Zuttermeis-
ter's statement that they frequently
met in the chauffeur's room above the
garage, and that Zuttermeister had
been there on the previous evening
when the 'shots were fired.
The two policemen, Flynn and Belly,
were examined next, and deelared they
had searched the house from top to
bottom, soon after the murder and
had found nothing.
The called:"M
policemen hrDovfgaps Quinnl!"
coroner
Throughout the .inquest, Quinn in-
termittently had been "sizing up" the
coroner's jury—chiefly composed of
men gathered hastily together in the
neighborhood—and he perceived in
them, or believed he did a determina-
tion to have Marjorie held for (inurder.
This, and the testimony of Zutter-
meister, persuaded him to do a des-
perate thing.
As he crossed the room and took
the chair, facing the coroner across
the table, he was fully resolved there
was but one way left to save the girl
he had hoped to marry—and he un-
hesitatingly took this way, heedless of
its peril.
"Mr. Quinn," said the coroner, "can
you supply any clue to the identity of
the person who killed .Tudge Black-
burn in this house last night?"
"I can do even better than that,"
said Quinn, looking the coroner etead'-
ily in the eye. "I am the person who
killed Judge Blackburn!"

French scientists have demonstrated
that horses gain in weight if fed a
kind of seaweed that grows on the
coast of Brittany, instead of grain and
other food.

Maple Sugar.
The lua.ple tree In early springtime
becomes a syrup jug. It le mighty
good syrup, too, when one can get the
real stuff.
The puzzle used to be ltow and why
this happens. Now the secret,is under-
stood.
Beneath the Mark of the inapie's
trunk and branches is a cellular struc-
ture, 1r1 which starch is stored. The
starch Is food, and when spring comes
it is wanted to make new growth.
But the tree cannot digest starch,
and tbereforo the latter is converted
bat -enemies (inorganic .ferments) iuto
sugar. The sugar, dissolved in the
tree sap, is carried JD the form of.a
thin syrup to all parts of the tree, disc
tributing nourishment,
The syrup flows upward and out-
ward toward tate twigs and budding
leaves, and the warmth of the sun
causes ft to expand. There 1s gas, too,
in the cellular structure of the sap
wood, and it expands under the same
genial Influence.
The result is a pressure downward,
and so, when a hole is bored Iso the
tree trunk the syrup trickles out. A
goodsized sugar maple tree will yield
fifty quarts, or enough to make three
pounds of sugar wben boiled down.

Wild Rice for Wild Fowl.
Oar wild. fowl under modern con-
ditions
onditions either tend to disappear or
forsake their former haunts in favor
of more unsettled regions. Dile rea-
