BUT IF THE HALT HAVE LOST ITS SAVOR?
Thinking of salt, one remembers that it has always been one of
man’s prime necessities, The Master knew this and so He used the old,
old saying, "Ya are the salt of the earth"'—words so often heard as to
have passed us by without our comprehension. Yet what could better
describe the type of people who are the redeeming grace of every genera
tion? Good and simple folk found in every age and clime,^silently add
ing their savor to life. Bringing u'„ ‘-L_ *’
recognition of themselves but they cleanse,
generation as it passes by. Their influence is often
it is removed, but the power of their leavening raises the whole sad mass
of social inertia. What would life he without them?
SUPPRESSED DESIRES
The writer of this poem will be
well-known to many of you. It is
taken from an unpublished collec
tion of verses, many of which show
fine craftsmanship and delicate
feeling.
The morning air is fresh and sweet,
The morning flowers are gay,
I’d like to write a song about
Ths dawning of the day.
But Daddy wants his breakfast,
There’s cereal to be made,
And omelet
And toast
The sun is
In brazen
I’d like to write a poem
Of eager youth and love.
But there’s stockings to be mended
And Jimmy had a fall,
And tore his breeches horribly
Last night when playing
The banners of the evening
Are flung across the sky.
I’d like to paint a picture
But I hear the baby cry,
And Bobby missed his spelling
To-day at school I’m told,
And May’s antics in Arithmetic
Just make one’s blood run cold.
I’ll never paint a picture,
I’ll never write a song,
I’m so very, very busy
Making Home the whole day long.

In trying to conserve sugar, we
’ find out that a pinch of salt is often
a great help in bringing out fla
vor. There is almost no food that
.cannot be improved by the addi
tion of a little of this cheap and
common seasoning. A pinch of
salt in the water will keep crack
ed eggs from boiling out; when
baking potatoes, try boiling first
in salted water for ten minutes—it
saves time. Or rub it over the skins
of the prepared potatoes before put
ting in the oven, and you will be
delighted with the flavor. A little
salt in the oven under a pan will
prevent scorching delicate mixtures.
Try a speck of salt with coffee be
fore adding the water . . . and put
a dash in the pan with grease to i
prevent it splashing when frying
meat. Hot mixtures will cool much
more quickly when set in a pan
of salty water. Salt in the starch
will keep it from sticking to the
iron. Salt and vinegar makes an
excellent cleaner for brass. We
all know the preservative^ value of
salt and also its use as an antiseptic
and one could go On indefinitely
without exhausting its possibilities.
Let us be glad that here it is not
the scarce and priceless article that
it is in many lands.* * *

Almost all parents should be glad
to know that basic training is to
be restored to the school curricu

cadets, you may remember, was
discontinued some years ago, ns a
concession to those who contended
that it fostered war-mindedness. It
■was a case of crying peace when
there was no peace, and many boys

At this season mothers of
ing children are never
making sandwiches. It
times puzzling to find the proper
filling that will balance the starch
in, the bread. Whole wheat bread
should always be used, liberally
buttered, and sandwiches should be
accompanied by raw vegetables,
radishes, green leaf foods such as
lettuce and ' pepper grass or strips
of sweet pepper. Carrots, turnip,
cabbage and cauliflower cut up at
tractively, are all favorites with
children; in fact, many youngsters
’ will take their vegetables in this
way, who balk at the ordinary
cooked dish.
Peanut butter comes first as a
nutritious sandwich-filler. The pea
nut butter is cheap, popular and
does not readily spoil. It is rich in
carbohydrates, contains more pro
tein than beef, is one of the best
sources of vitamin "B”, and one
ounce contains 125 international
units of thiamin. Meat comes next j
in order of nutrition and then
cheese.

you to use sugar not in excess of
one and one-quarter pounds of
sugar for each pound of fruit.
On the ba'sis that “fruit” means

Painful, Pus Filled Boils
the Cause of Much Misery
If you suffer from boils you know how Bick and
miserable they made you feel.
Boils are an outward indication of impurities in
the system, and just when you think you are rid of
one another crops up to take its place and prolong
your misery. All the lancing and poulticing you can do may not stop more
coming.
To help overcome boils you should purify the blood, so why not give
that old, reliable blood medicine, Burdock Blood Bitters, a chance to show
what it will do in helping you get rid of them? Thousands have used it for
this purpose for the past 60 years. Why not you? .
