Lesson VIII. Proteins.
Proteins are the foods we depend thin large proportions of gelatin.
upon for body building and repairing
waste tissue. Eighteen per cent, of
the human body is composed of pro-
tein. It is one of the most import-
ant of the kinds of foods because it
contains nitrogen, a body iiuilder.
The chief proteins are. meat,. eggs,
milk, grains, peas, beans and lentils.
The compounds of protein are divided
into three classes, viz., albumens,
gelatinoids, and extractives.
Albumen in its purest form is found
in the white of an egg, in the form
of a thick, white, viscuous liquid.
Albumen is present in the casein of
milk, and in meat. It is in the form
of gluten in wheat and cereals, and as
legumin in beans, peas and lentils. It
dissolves readily in cold water and
coagulates upon the application of
heat: The white of egg coagulates or
thickens at a temperature of 150 de-
gres. Cooking beyond 165 degrees
of heat will toughen the albumen,
making it difficult to digest. For this
reason all egg and egg mixtures should
be cooked in a slow, even heat.
Gelatinoids form :the second class
of protein, compounds, • Gelatin, is
found in the connective tissues, which
are their leading constituent. It is
also found in meat; tendons, cartilage
and bone; and in all body tissues.
They•are a very important element in
the body. The entire wall cone con -
Extractives form the third class of
proteins. This extract is the flavor-
ing which is found in foods, Great
care must be taken while cooking
foods that nothing impairs this flavor
or destroys its value as all important
element of nourishment. Extracts
are soluable in cold water.
Meats.
In preparing meats for food, two
methods are employed.
First, where it is the object to ex-
tract all the nutriment of the meat
into the liquid or broth, as in soups,
meat tea, and broths. The meat is
cut into small pieces,- added to cold
water, and brought slowly to boiling
point. Then it is allowed to simmer
at a temperature of 165 degrees
Fahrenheit. This method extracts
all the nutriment from the meat.
Second, searing or coagulating the
surface of the meat. The meat is
placed in boiling water or steam for
five or ten minutes and then processed
at a simmering temperature. Or
the surface of the meat is brought in
contract with ,intense heat for the
same purpose, coagulation, or searing
the entire surface. It is then pro-
cessed at a simmering temperature.
This method preserves all the nutri-
tious elements in the meat: The'sear-
ing has the effect • bf preventing the
loss of the Meat juices.

Boat Commander's Advised of
Shipping Movements.
Up came the periscope out of the
choppy, Coling sea, to take a look
around, Tho thing was painted white,
to resemble the top of a wave and to
conceal itself in the mist that hung
heavily over the ocean.
But the trained "spotters,' stationed
on the bridge and all over the docks
of the Solithland, were quick enough
to see the periscope when it -appeared.
"Submarine! Port quarter 1" called
the captain on the bridge.
"Fire 1" commanded the chief of the
gun crew,
In an instant the naval gun pointers
aboard the steamship, which was run-
ning at full speed through the war
zone, had found the target, The rest
of ti;e gun crew were at their posts
beside the piles of ammunition on the
deck, shells and powder charges, and
ready to fight to the last,
"Bang -g -g" roared the gun.
But the shot missed, bounding and
rebounding along on the water beyond
the 'target. Periscopes in the most
favorable circumstances are hard to
bit.
"Bang -bang !" went the gun again,
closer to the periscope, but still miss-
ing,
By this time the submarine's dare-
devil commander got the bearings and
let. go a torpedo at the steamship,
Quickly the vessel swung round, with
its nose toward the submarine, in or-
der to minilflize the size of the tar-
get. The torpedo missed twenty feet
astern.
Then there_ was another white
streak in the water—the wake of an-
other torpedo, which did not- nitss.
There was an explosion at the water
line on the port quarter, ripping a
great holo in the side. The great ves-
sel gave a shudder and then• lurched
forward.

The U -Boat Submerges.
In the hasty turning and the shock
of being hit the gunners. lost sight of
the periscope for a minute, and the
rain of shots fired went far from the
mark. Seeing that the second torpedo
had done its work, the submarine sub-
merged in order to get out of the way
of the gunfire.
With a great hole in her side, both
above and below the water line, the
Southland began to settle by the bow,
and in four minutes was down suf-
ficiently to pull the still whirling pro-
pellers out of the water, with a deafen-
ing noise.
All over the steamship the crew
were adjusting life -preservers; engi-
neers and stokers, some dressed'•only
in shoes and trousers, were pouring
out of the hold to a place of safety;
able seamen and stewards were lower-
ing the -lifeboats from the starboard
side. The gunners, when the sub-
marine submerged, leaving them
without a target, saw a chance to get
away with their lives. They dashed
to the side, crawled over and slid
down the ropes, burning their hands
frightfully, but landing safely in the
lifeboats, which already had, been
launched.
•Thegreat-ship was sinking rapidly.
There was another shudder and a
lurph, and then, as the lifeboats got
about two hudnred• yards away, the
vessel was swallowed up by the
water; first her decks, then her fun-
nels and then the tops of the tower-
ing masts. The crew, glad to be alive,
but wondering what would become of
them, watched silently.
But their muse did not last long.
Before the whirlpool caused by the
sinking vessel had become calm again
there appeared on the scene about a
thousand yards away a periscope—un-
doubtodly the same that had bobbed
up at the beginning of the action,

but of the neutrals as well, those
which are daring enough to continue
to trade with the enemies of Prus-
siauism. The commander of the sub-
marine in some mysterious way knew
that the steamship he had sunk, the
Southland, which was one of the best
known of the Red Star line, had been
laid up for repairs. Ire knew she would
clear soon—he even knew the date
originally sot, But he had not re-
ceived a "report" of her steaming.
Something apparently went wrong
with the Iiaiser's intelligence system
for the instant, -
Evidently the Prussians had some-
body In the port—somebody trusted
by the owners of the vessel—who
made every effort to conceal her
movements—who reported in some
underground way her intended clear-
ance. Such a person must be some-
body whose record is outwardly spot-
less, for the news about 111e move -
movements of ships is guarded like
diamonds and gold.
There is no way of learning definite-
ly, but it is a thousand to one bet that
the British Secret Service already is
at work on the case to locate the per-
son whe obtained the information and
the method by which it was conveyed
to the enemy.
"Tho Southland," replied the second
mate, "from Liverpool to New York,"
"Huh ?" asked the German, "The
Southland ? Are yoti sure ?
"Wes," said tate steamship officer,
"That's odd," replied the German,
"You weren't due t0 leave Liverpool
for another week."
"I know," replied the second mate;
"but they finished our repairs ahead
of time, and, as wo were to travel
light, they sent us out on an earlier
day than originally set,"

"Fla glad 16 see you," said Pat 'in
most cordial greeting,
"My factory is building high-epsed
meters on war order's," Jaekeorl re-
sumed, "east I am extremely suspici-
ous of treachery and the presence of
epics. Your het isrequired,'?
Their further conferece
led to an
agreement that Pat and come of her
lieutenants should obtain employment
in the Jackson factory,
At the meeting, of the Apaches the
next day, Pat delegated a few of her
men to apply for work at the Jack-
son factory.
"If you find any spies trying to
marry Ja.cicson's 'war brides' let Inc
know, said Pat, "and I will quickly
tell you what to do."
Thus it came about that several
nowhands were hired at Jackson's
factory. Pat disguised herself in
overalls and cap, ussuming an air of
listlessness that was designed to
throw off any suspicion that might be
directed toward her.
Ono day Pat noticed a pretty girl,
accompanied by a fine-looking young
chap, enter Jackson's private office.
Pad's.curiosity led her to an investiga-
tion she was not employed to make.
The Apache queen lingered in the
outer office until she could think up
some trival thing that would take her
within earshot .ef the conversation.
Jack Elliott, superintendent of the fac-
tory, coming suddenly upon the' girl
as she was listening, gave her the
surprise of her life.
"Look here, kid," said Elliott gruf-
fly, "I don't know what the old man
has you around here for, but I'm«sure
it's not to listen in on his private/on-
versations,"
"There's a whole lot you don't
know," said Pat.

,The Strange Discovery.
Pat's presence in the city was known
to every member of the American
Apaphes through information she had
flashed, by wireless, from the ship
that brought her across the Atlantic,
The "Queen of the Underworld," ruler
of the Parisian Apaches, was to hold
equal sway over the American band
she. had summoned to meet her.
The house she had taken as her
tefnporary residence had been espe-
cially constructed for the American
Apaches, and the first meeting of the
clan had been appointed by Pat's
wireless message. The day and hour
was 'the same as that she had set for

to the drawing room to learn, if he
could, from Pat, the method by which
she had smuggled the valuables ashore.
But now the room was empty, and
realizing that he was again baffled by
the clever girl, Kelly returned to his
hotel.

a dark passage. When the fireplace'
slid back into place, a smile of satis-
faction made even more beautiful the
face of the daring girl.
"He'll be back to see me in a mo-

surprise," said Pat to herself, as she
moved 'for a :few feet along the dark
passage. When her hand struck
Why the Term "Hun" is Frequently
Applied to the Germans.
The term "Boehe," as applied to the
German soldiers, isn't a complimen-
tary one, nor anything new, It is an
old term in France, and means "thick-
headed." It is about equivalent to
the American term "bone -head."
In fact, the word comes from the
Italian "boccie," and means a round
ball of exceptionally hard wood used
in playing ten pins. But just how it
came to be applied to the German sol-
diers we do not know.
As a general rule, nicknames given
to soldiers are not unkindly. The
French soldier is called "pailu," which
means hairy, because in the early
French wars the soldiers had no op-
portunity to shave, or have their hair
cut, and when they returned from the
army, they had a rough, hairy, un-
couth appearance. But there- was
nothing unkindly in calling them
"poen;"
The British are called "Tommies"
because of a flcitious popular British
soldier made immortal in verse and
given, the name "Tommy Atkins."
During the American Civil War the
Union troops were called "Yanks," as
anabbreviation of the word Yankee,"
and the Confederates were called
"Johnny Reels," from "rebel," But
never was there bitterness or sarcasm
in the terms,
But now wo have the German sol-
diers generally called "Boches," or
"Boneheads," and certainly not as a
term of endearment. The appellation
"Alun," which one sees in print fre-
quently, also is a term of reproach
and means that the German's pies
eat warfare and tactics savor of the
barbarity of thd-Jcluns, who' tinder

and destroying civilization. There

The frequent visits Drew made to
