• INTRODUCTION — We have, tri the
story of JNiah, that comtination of
forces which the world and the church
I ave c.me to knav so well: he Man
with 'pure hea-t, : i.;h pure ose, and
gift of leadership, the Book inspired
of Gocl, a2.d faith';ul Workmen, both
artisans and ministers of the state
and of religion, to carry its precepts
into effect. To understand the situation
in which Josiah found himself ir,the
first twenty years of his reign one
should read the story of Manasseh's
reign in 2 Kings, chap. 21, aid of
Josiah's sons who succeeded him on
the throne, in 23: 31-24: 20. Or, bet-
ter still, one should turn to certain
.chapters of Jeremiah, whose ministry
as a prophet in Judah began at this
-time, and who sets forth with atarta
ling clearness its allies and its vices
(see chaps. 2, 5, and 7).
I. FIRST STEPS IN WELL -DOING, 2 Kings
22: 1-7; 2 Chron. 34: 1-13.
Both historian., and prophet speak
well of Josiah (2 Kings 22: 1-2; 23:
25; Jeremiah 22: 15-16). "lie did that
-which was right in the eyes of the•
Lord." ' His character is in striking
contrast to that of his father and
grandfather, chap. 21. As a child of
eight years he came to the throne at a
tine when there appears to have been
an uprising of "the people of the
aand," people of the better sort,
:against the corrupt court party which
was r.sponsible for the murder of his
father. For a time, and until he was
old enough to bear the burdens of
•,.tate, be must have been under the
care of tutors and guardians, and they.
did their duty well. His naturally
good 'disposition was cultivated and
strengthened. The historian of Chron-
icles represents him as beginning his
-work of reform "ir the eighth year of
his reign," 2 Chron. 34: 1-7.
In the eighteenth year his workmen
ware busy at the temple nutting it
into a state of repair. It had appar-
ently been much neglected. It is a
pleasure to read -of the good relations
which existed between the king, the
priests, and the workmen who "dealt
faithfully." The money for the nec-
essary material and for wages cane
from the offerings of the people, and
this money was put in the hands of
carpenters and masons of whom no
'reckoning was required because they
were known to he honest men.

salt and pepper. Simmer until the
vegetables are ready, then mix in a
basin one tablespoonful of flour, a
piece of margarine the size of a wal-
nut, a little chopped parsley, .and a
pinch of pepper. Slowly add sufficient
stock to bring the mixture to the con-
sistency of thick cream, stirring well
all the time. Pour off the water from
the vegetables, then pour the mixture
over them.

regarded it from his first reading of

years that followed he endeavored to
put its laws into force. The book
must have contained both recepts of.
th. law and penalties for their non-
observance. Josiah's first act upon
reading it'was -e of penitence. Its
lr.ws had not been kept. He and his
people, like their fathers, were. guilty
before God. He "humbled himself" as

Article 5—More About Calories and
Foods.
By Marie Ann Best
Last week we found out the average
person of about 150 pounds will reduce.
on 1220 Calories of food per day. • If
your normal weight is more than 150.
lbs., then you will need more Calories,
on 1200 Calories of food per day. If
duce. If you are small, 1000 may do.
One lady I know cannot reduce until
she goes down to 900 calories and her
normal weight is 150 lbs., but that is
unusual. Men seem to need More
food than women, perhaps because wo-
men are more angelic and therefore
do not need so many calories? Child-
ren need more than men or women ac-
cording to their weight since they are
building up their bodies, making bone,
etc. Old people do not need as much.
as any of us, for they are through
building and are not so energetic.
It shows that to a certain extent
each person must study Ms or her own
body performance and find out by
systematically getting weighed faith-
fully each weep just what has been
accomplished., It seems necessary al-
so to always get weighed on the same
scales, for it is surprising how you will
find no two scales weigh alike.
One of your red letter days now
will be weigh -day, you will not need
to be reminded of it for it is a real
pleasure to see the steady decrease
chronicled on the scales. After you

ASK DAD, HE KNOWS
Two modern little girls, on. their

one.
"No" said the other promptly. "It's

Shanghai, China, ---'the Chinese are
becoming coufirnned amolcerj. Their
favorite form of the "weed" is the
cigarette, Although trade in. — iiTauy
lines is almost completely paralyzed
as a result of civil war, banditry and
the drop in the money market, the to-,
hacco dealers are doing bigger busi-
ness that ever and are congratulating
themselves on what appears to be a
real change for the better, as far as
they are concerned.
During the mouth of Mareh the
largest foreign cigarete manufacturing
concern in China reported that sales
reached the highest figure in history.
Apparently the Chinese prefer to have
their "smokes" even if they must cut
down on necessities, Coolies who sup-
port a family on only a few cents a
day manage to buy cigarettes. For
their convenience cigarettes of the
1200c
very oheapast quality are made which
sell at prices ranging from live for a
cent to two and three cents a package
of twelve.
In Shanghai hundreds of small to-
bacco shops boast of large daily turn-
overs simply by selling cigarettes two
at"fd three at a time. The Coolie must
have his smoke along with his bowl of
rice. Considering that there are 50,-
000,000 of his class in China the daily
turnover would be enormous if each.
bought one cigarette a day. Cigarete
smoking has become national in China
during the past 20 years. Foreign to-
bacco concerns send their men into
the remotest parts of the country
where few white men have ever pene-
trated and find an increasing market
for their wares. And they seldom fall
victim to kidnappers or bandits, for
bandits are usually friendly with the
men who bring then tobacco.

There generally comes a time when
you confidently go to the scales and
have a little shock in store for you.
There must be something wrong. You
look at last week's record, and find
the scales are exactly the same to -day
as last week. No they are actually
a wee bit more. Oh, how disappoint-
ing.
Perhaps the average helpings of
high caloried food grew imperceptibly
a little larger. Yoit counted them the
same in your note -book, but your body
wasn't so lenient. It counted up cal-
ories as well as any old electric meter
and added a plus sign to every helping

ly cheat yourself. A good plan is to
count high if you are reducing -count
low if you wish to gain.

Megapodes Hatch
Fully Feathered
The mound builders, a family of
birds inhabiting Australia and cer-
tain South Sea islands, are unique in
that the young are hatched fully
feathered and able to fly and live in-
dependent life from the moment they
emerge from the eggs. These birds
are called Megapodes, because of their
large feet. Most species lay their
eggs in large mounds constructed of
loose soil, leaves, grass, twigs, etc.
Not infrequently the mounds are 10
or 12 feet in height and contain sev-
eral wagon -loads of material. After
the eggs are deposited they are Ieft
to hatch out by the heat of the de-
cayinw vegetable matter. The brush
turkeys are the most common of the
mound builders. One species of
Megapodes, found in the Philippines
and on other islands, lays its eggs in
the sand on the seashore and leaves
them to be hatched by the treat of
the •sun.—"The Humane Pleader."
Change Your Diet
With the Seasons
Advice about eating in hot weather
is given as below in the London Daily
Mail (Continental edition) by Sir W.
Arbuthnot Lane, English surgeon acid
President of the New Health Society.
He writes:
"If you want tb derive the maxi-
mum health benefit from the summer
weather you must pay particular at-
tention to our diet. With the altered
climatic conditions it is unreasonable
to expect our body machine to run
smoothly on the same quantity and
quality of fuel as is necessary during
winter. If you do not change your diet
with the season you will find yourself
listless, heavy, and inert—thoroughly.
unfit, in fact—during the hot spells.
"The basic principle of summer di-
eting is to eat an abundance of fresh
fruit and vegetables, fortunately plen-
tiful and moderate in cost at this time
of the year, and to substitute as far
as possible dairy produre for flesh
foods. Fruits and vegetables in the
form of salads are very palatable and
supply valuable mineral salts and the
indispensable vitamins which have
been relatively lacking in our winter.
.diet.
"For breakfast, coffee, wholemeal
bread with butter and honey, an egg
served attractively, and raw fruit
salad make up a well-balanced and
sustaining meal. For lunch, a large
glass of milk with wholemeal biscuits
and butter and a couple of apples or
oranges are usually adequate while a
cup of lepton tea will be found very
refreshing in the afternoon. Cheese,
eggs; or ground nut dishes with fish
occasionally, along with fruit and
vegetable, salads tastily prepared
should form the basis of dinner.
"Water should be taken abundantly
between meals, as during the hot
weather the skin is very active, losing
large quantities of water to keep the
body cool. Insufficient intake of fluid
is liable to lead to intestinal stasis.
In this connection it is well to remem-
ber that the cellulose or roughage
present in fruits and vegetables is
mildly stimulating to the intestinal1
'function and is therefore the best
laxative during spells of heat."

POLISHING TORTOISESHELL

The arrival of theR-100 at her home
base in England coincided with the
test cricket match, in which the public
seemed to be more interested. Here
the news of its safe return was simi-
larly blanketed by the Empire genies.
It would appear that the love of sport
is the most powerful passion that Eng-
lish-speaking peoples have in com-
mon.
A Jew and a Christian were having•
an argument about the ways of their
respective races.
"You people," said the Jew, "have
been taking things from us all your,

"Well, yes," said the other, "we,
took them from you all right, but soul
can't say we've kopt them"
