The cavy was carried to Europe by Dutch traders during the Sixteenth century. Since then it has been kept in the Old world and in North America chiefly as a pet, and until recently lias been generally re garded as an animal of little prac tical utility. The name pig is readily suggested by its form, but the origin of "guinea" as applied to it is un known, but may be a corruption of "Guiana pig."

GREEN Editor of "HEALTH" I'nluQ.) HEALTH FIRST of the most valuable move ments of recent times lias been the "Safety First" campaign. It was un heard of 20 years ago. People were killed or injured on railroads, street cars and steamers. Workmen were killed, maimed, blinded or otherwise injured in factories and machiue shops. Everyone said that a certain number of accidents were bound to occur; that they couldn't be prevented. Then some skeptical gentlemen be gan to look into J.he matter. They found that there was almost no such thing as an unpreventable accident. Every time any one was hurt, some one was at fault, not knowingly or intentionally, but through carelessness, thoughtlessness, stupidity or ignorance. Then they got the big corporations and the large employers of labor interested They showed them that accidents were not only largely preventable hut also that they were very expensive, both to the men who were hurt and to the firms they worked for. In a word, they showed that accidents were pure fvaste. And waste Is just waste. It's time and money and energy and life thrown away. It never docs anybody any good and it does everybody harm So they started the National Safety Council and took as their war cry in their battle against unnecessary acci dents—"Safety First." Today you'li see that sign everywhere, on railroad trains, in factories and shops, even on the little stool the pullman porter sets out for you to step on. Industrial acci dents have been greatly reduced as a result, 'though the steadily increasing number of automobile accidents Is more than making up for tiiis reduc tion. If Safety First, why not Health First? A man is just as dead if he dies of typhoid fever as lie is If he is struck by a A child who dies of diphtheria Is just as dead as one run over by an automobile. And typhoid and diphtheria are more easily prevented than train or automobile ac cidents. Most disease Is due to carelessness, thoughtlessness or Ignoranca. We eai too much and then wonder why so many of us die from apoplexy. We run for street cars and trains and can't understand why our middle-aged friends died failure. We over work our then bewail the fact that so many of us die from Bright's disease. We expose ourselves to Infection and think it strange that we have influenza and pneumonia. Most disease is due to someone's Ignorance or carelessness. Learn howr> to live, be more careful and so live longer and happier lives. It's worth trying, anyhow. GETTING NEXT TO NATURE ABETTING next to nature Is the present-day fad. especially during the summer mvnths. This is all right but for those who are going out into the woods and fields, it is also desir able for those to "get next" to nature for their own protection. For there are dangers in the fields and woods, aB there are in the crowd ed city streets and the t'endtrfoct who picks some pretty little white berries may regret his enthusiasm a* mu"h as does the city girl who tries to pet the "lovely little black-and-white kitty" she meets in the woods. There are three common and poison ous plants which every one going on a vacation or even to picnics might to know. They are the poison ivy, the poison oak and the poison sumac. While it Is well to know how to treat Ivy poisoning,' It Is far belter to learn to recognize these poisonous plants and to stay away from them. Poison Ivy Is by far the most com mon. It la usually found In patches either close to the ground or growing about one foot high. It has broad, pointed, bright green leaves which al ways grow in clusters of three. It has greenish-white berries. Poison oak is a shrub with oval, pointed leaves In clusters of seven lo thirteen. Its berries are greenish white. Poison sumac grows on swamp) ground, so that, although It Is ttie most poisonous of the three. It Is not so dangerous, as it Is harder, to get to. Sumac is a bush from three to five feet high. Its bright greea leaves grow In clusters of from seven to thirteen. Its berries, like tbe poison oak tier ries are greenisl'-jghite. These characteristics of the three poisonous plants have been put lato rhyme, l-earn this and follow It ano you will be safe from |>olsona In the woods. / Berries red. do not dread.

DISHES TO TEMPT AND REFRE3H An apple soup is not »ery common, but Is well liked by those who have • tried it Green Apple Soup.—Chop ten apples without coring or paring and cook in two quarts of water until pulpy. Strain, return to the kettle and thicken with four ta blespoonfuls of arrowroot stirred to a paste with four tablespoonfuls of wa ter, and then added to one-half cup of the apple soup, the whole poured lntp the kettle and ' stirred until the soup boils. Add a dash of white pepper, and two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Just before serving add the Juice of half a lemon and garnish with green leaves cut in rounds like confetti, scattered over the soup. Fried Cucumber Rings.—Pare and slice cucumbers and cut out the center and seeds with a small vegetable cutter and put them In ice water for an hour; then dry and fry In deep fat like Saratoga potatoes. Southern Summer Squash. Cut squash in halves and let simmer in water ten minutes. Scrape out the center, leaving the shells thick enough to handle without breaking. Remove the seeds and press all the moisture from the pulp and add to It the fol lowing: To enough squash to serve six persons put one cupful of bread or cracker crumbs, one onion, one to mato, minced fine, a little chopped parsley and two cupfuls of cooked chopped ham; add two tablespoon fuls of butter, mix well, season with salt and pepper and add one beaten egg. Cook this mixture tm minutes, stirring constantly; arrange the shells in a baking pan, fill each, sprinkle with crumbs well mixed wltl. melted butter and bake until brown. Serve hot. Orange Sherbet. —Take one egg, one pint of cream, one quart of milk, the Juice and rind of three oranges, the Juice and rind of one lemon, and two and one-half cupfuls of sugar. Beat the egg, add the milk and cook until the egg is cooked, add the cream and the fruit Juices which have been added to the sugar and combine both mix tures. Freeze as usual. Household Help*. Oiled or paraffin papers which wrap foods or line boxes should be saved, _as they are use -1 B I ful for wrapping I sandwiched and u \Z other foods whe« /t] packing the pic / nlc 0T t ' le lu n c * Kggs should be & WIIB'I kept j„ m coo | dry place as the sheila, being porous, will absorb odors. When boxes or small baskets, of fruit coifie from the market, pour them out on a large dish. They keep much better and any that are decayed will b« seen and at once thrown away. Any leftover corn on the cob added to a potato salad Improves It greatly as to flavor and food value. A busy housewife may, when pre paring custard for the family, reserve enough for salad dressing before add ing the sugar and flavoring. Add mus tard, salt, pepper and vinegar to part of the cooked custard, with sugar and flavoring for the dessert, one cooking making two dishes. One of {he old-fashioned wire tea pot stands makes the best kind of a trivet to place in a kettle when boil ing puddings In a clrth, as It la sufficiently high to keefc the pudding from touching the boiiom of the ket tle. Add a little salad dressing to cot tage cheese; serve on lettuce. Spiced beef Is a disb especially en joyed in hot weather. Add a half cupful of shredded blanched almonds to the potato salad. It will make it more nourishing and tasty. In cooking such succulent vegetables as peas, spinach or greens of sny kind, salt should not be added until the cooking Is over. A good rule to remember Is all "top the ground vegetables." should not be salted un til rooked. TlcJloU *)Vl^Mrt A, Costard Is Good Standby Milk, eggs, and sugar are practical ly always on hsnd In the well-stocked pantry. These materlsls, with differ ent flavorings, may be depended upon •s the basis of Innumerable whole some, easily-made cuatard dessert a. which have tbe additional merit of contributing Important elements -to the day's food. Tbe United States Department of Agalrultore points out that much-needed lime Is supplied by milk. Iron Is found In egg-yolks, and both foods are good sources of vita mins. Costards nay be served alone or aa sauces for fruits, cakes, or puddings. They may b« thickened with eggs •■lf, or part of the thickening may be snpplled by bread crumbs, cake, rlcc, tapioca, awaat potato, pumpkin, tour. cornstarch ar gelatlm.

FOR HOPE-CHEST LINGERIE; THE SEMI-FORMAL TAILLEUR SO PAH as lingerie is concerned It a|>l>ears dial all fabrics that are not light, silky ami colorful are as fsr behind the limes and as dead as King Tut's wife. Daintiness is so dear to the hearts of women that even gosaamer materials, whose chief eason for existence Is sheer beauty, tlnd themselves in demand for under garments But It Is not likely that they will .•ver displace the beautifnl and more practical silks and silky cottons, that are durable as well as delicate.
