In his work on food and dietetics Doctor Robert Hutchison says, "the absence of car- bohydrates prevents eggs from being in any sense a complete food." This refers to the fresh egg—the egg with a clean bill of health. What would Doctor Hut- chison say of the modern cold storage egg? At pre- sent prices two eggs cost ten cents—and the egg is not a complete food! Some- thing must be eaten with it to supply the needed carbo- hydrates. Two Shredded Wheat Biscuits, with cream or milk, make a complete, per- fect meal at a cost of four or five cents. Made in Canada. —_.s. ARGYLLS IN ACTION. How a Critical Situation Was Saved By Scotch Soldiers. An officer of the Royal Flying Corps, a native of Aberdeenshire, who served with various Highland units during recent Western front fighting, paid a striking tribute to a historic Highland regiment. Inter- ' viaeol. in London, he said:— "In a battle fought under modern conditions the airmen up aloft gener- ally sees more of the actual fight • than anybody elee. Ijiave seennnuch • aale• Semissesaan • ave seen a so soiree of the finest t of lieroism that have been pThri- cd by our troops. I do not care much. for making distinctions between this regiment or that regiment, but I think the finest bit of work I have seen out tbere was the charge of the Argylls. The position was critical. The battalion had advanced through a vertiable valley of death. It had suffered heavy casualties, but in spite of all the fighting spirit of these . glorious Highland lads was untamed. "Many of the wounded refused to , •fall out, and kept in the ranks as long as it was 'humanly possible to do so. Something appeared to have gonee wrong on the right of tree battalior Anyhow the attacking line had a Oa in it. The German were quick to see , their advantage. Into the gap they threw a battalion of their best and freshest troops. Seizing a section of trench lightly held this new bat- talion used it as a jumping off place from which to ,pleliver what was meant to be a crushing blow at the right flank of the Argylls. It was neces- sary that the Argolis should repel this attack, and at the same time continue their advance towards their own ob- jective; otherwise there would be an- -*other gap on the right of the troops attacking to the left of the Argylls. "There was no time to be lost. Two companies of the Argylls were mus- tered to meet the new attack. They didn't wait for it. Led by an officer who- was the idol of his men this de- ... • aatachment left its trenches and ad- yanced across the open to meet the • oncoming foe. The enemy were tak- en abackat this method of meeting an attack; but before they had time to recover the Argylls were on them with the baOonet. The German line held 'fast for only the fraction of a minute. The. charge of the Highlanders was ir- resistible, The German attack was shattered with bayonet and bomb, and in aa few minutes the battalion of picked' troops was little more than a pailic-strielcen mob. Then the Argylls eeturried to their position, and pro- eaeried with their main attack." Blouses and Skirt5 Basque blouses, though they are be- ing favored more and more day by day, have not succeeded ire ousting the blouse that is worn inside the skirt. The model with a, frill of anti lace in front or of the soft material of the blouse still holds its own. Some very attractive new blouses are of tan or sand -colored Georgette decorated with shadow embroidery in fine wool. Motifs worked in old blue, old rose and tan enhance the artistic beauty of these waists. Bright yellow and deep rose are among the newest colors that have been seen in separate blouses.. Some have collars of the same material, while others are trimmed with a es e collar. No matter what rumors may be ch.- culated to the contrary from time to time, the separate waist an & skirt are always with us. Separate skirts are Done Again. "Hi! hi! Walk up, ladies and gents. No waiting. Come and see the latest. A real live horse that's got its tail where its head ought to be. Only five cents to see it! Children half-price!" thus shouted the old showman. The crowd paid the money and pass- ed in. There stood an ordinary horse, backed against a food -trough. "It's tail is in its right place," said the people. "No, it ain't," said the showman, as he edged towards the door. "It's got its tail in its food -trough, and that's where its head ought to be!" Very Late. A young woman came in quite hur- riedly after the musicale had begun. "Have I missed much?" she asked. "What are they playing now?" "The Ninth Symphony." "Oh, goodness! Am I really as late as that?"

In the proclamation issued by the German Government the other day, half appealing and half commanding the German women of every rank to enter the public serviee as actual workers, there was one curious and significant phrase, says the New York Times. As translated, it char- acterized • as "idiotic class distinc- tions" those lines whieh, mare rigid- ly in Germany than in any other European country, except perhaps in Anstria, have divided t he population into little less than separate species. If these distinctions have come to seem "idiotic" to the rulers of Ger- many, then it would be impossible to exaggerate the influence toward democracy which the war has exert- ed, for certainly, before the war, the djvidieg line between class and class were held to be natural, immov- able and commendable --in short, CONTAINS NO ALUM 44410.411111611.0.4.• 5HruL acus CTIONJflfllW 77: :CR t efrgiy7c.
