food the lack- of'which, during Ihe
war, was found to work; a, greater
hardship upon a population than the
deprivation of any other variety of
food form. ' - '
This nutritivevsubstance " is fat.
The particular fat which "has-been
evolved by- the American food " ex
perts. into an indispensable article of
food is the oil derived from the germ
of corn. .' v . : ' , v
It has been found that this oil is
J unusually rich in lecithin, consider
ed by many .physiologists as one of
the most important tonics, restora
tives", and tissue-builders known to
science. v . .; -
Lecithin is a dominant element in
the fa that goes to make up brain
and nerve cells, and ha's a very de
cided effect in increasing nutrition.
Corn oil is digested and assimilated
more, rea'dily- than almost any other
variety of fat either animal or veg
etable. , ; - : .N-.
It is the low burning property of
animal fats that makes-frying with
these fats such ax nuisance ar.ound
meal-time in most kitchens. ' For the
degree of heat generated by " gas,'
gasolene, coal, -wood, or electricity
averages about two thousand de
grees. - . ' ' ' ' '
The higher burning point of corn
oil, on the contrary, lends itself ad
mirably to modern cooking methods,
as it makes it possible to cook the
food quickly, and at a higher tem
perature, without, at the same, time
burning and searing theyfood -No

Meat, fish, or odoriferous vegeta
bles, cooked in corn oil, are quickly

forces them to retain the flavors and

So complete is this sealing effect

The oil content in corn averages
about- five per cent of the grain. Sd

? Not An Acquired Taste. I
;Corn oil is - a clear, limpid, pale
yellow 'fluid, free from odor,' and
with an agreeable, sweet flavor., It
possesses qualities of palateabilky
that do not have to be acquired. (
It has been found that corn oil is
a great improvement over butter in
the making of cakes, cookies and
puddings; whilq it is superior to lard
as a shortener for biscuits, pie crust,
bread and crackers.
As a dressing in the fom" of a
mayonnaise or French ' dressing for
cold boiled vegetables, such as cab
bage, beets, turnips, potatoes, cauli
flower, and other vegetables, corn oil
is all that; the most critical epicure
could desire. ' f
- In fact, it is not going too fStr to
state that corn oil will, within the
next decade or two do more to re
make the well-known and justly
celebrated American stomach over in-,
to a healthy organ-, than any , one
discovery of modern times. "
A Disturbing Thought. "v
(Philadelphia Record.) . V
What disturbs one of our Repub
lican statesmen most about the so
called, cession of Shantung to Ger-
r many 21 years ago, when William
McKinley was President, is that the
"40,400,000 piteouly " pleading"
Chinese who Were handed over to
the brutal Japanese contain 8,000
000 prospective soldiers for the. use
of Japan Nin the coming war with the
United States. What was leased to
Germany: was the fishing village of
Tsingtau and 117 square miles of
territory, with about .3 0,0 00 Chinese
population. And itall happened unT
der a Republican Administration.'

. Beauty A Farm Test. .
The story comes from Wisconsin
that a farmer who found it, neces
sary to move failed by, $2,000 ' to
reach an agreement with a prospec
tive buyer. The latter came a sec
ond time to see if the farmer would
not reconsider his offer. Meanwhile
the barn had been struck by light
ning, and ; had been '. burned 1 ; down,
owner again rjef used the offer . and
was sadly deciding, to remain longer
and Considering .the advisability of
an investment in paiiit and repairs
'to induce, some one to buy at his
price for the farm. At this point, as
Ihe buyer leaving, between two
elms he caught. x sight of a distant
view of two hills that, had been hid
den by the barn. They ; talked;; a
while and the resul t was the1 sale of
the farm it : the original price ask
ed. The loss of an unsightly, ill-
.' placed,-but serviceable, building had
added $2,000 to the value of .the
farnit property. :. N
Beauty is ah undoubted asset. Yet
countrysides endowed .by nature with
kail that would make them attractive
are marred', by ugly works f of man.
r.There may be lopsided sheds, strag
gling fences, unkempt yards, of
'ftaiinting advertisements monumen
tal to the owner's loss of good taste
and lack, of business judgment. Let
the . moonlight soften the harsh out
lines, and behold the change ; What
if then seen may in some measure
be gained by a proper use of shrub-;
'bery and the exercise ' of simple neat
ness. The attractive farm ' is not be
yond the mean of. any one who owns
a few acres, wits dividends "are in
pleasure, in self respect, and, - as the
" Wisconsin farmer's experience show -ed,
in cash as well.--Exchange.
As a result of a strike which be-;
! gan Tuesday 10,000 employes of the
McCormick reaper works of the In
ternational Harvester Company - are
locked out by the closing of the plant
for' an indefinite period. The strik
ers had asked for a 44-hour week, ? 1
an hour and a closed shop. "'.
