The Value of the Potato ; As a Human Food Material iii 1 . There Is no food which exactly takes tho place of the potato when ouo Is accustomed to It. says a 'statement Is sued by the United Staled department of agriculture, urging an Increased con sumption of this vegetable now that the mnrkets of the country aro well supplied. It lias come to Ire such a part of our dinner that we miss It when It is not served. Uesldes, any leftover potato can bo used in many very palatable wuys for breakfast or supper, and this Is a conrcnieiico from the housekeeper's standpoint, since It helps h.r to make acceptable meals. Not only is it useful from the ease Willi which It can be prepared and the number of palatable ways in which II can be served, but It Is very iuipuitnnt for the food material It supplies. It Is one of the most wholesome sources of starch and Is also fairly rich In the mineral matter which the body needs Of (he mineral salts one must not over look the Importnnco of the mild al kaline salts it contains, because these are greatly needed by the body to coun terbalance the acid sails which meats and eggs produce when assimilated. In this we have a ju.sllHrntiou of the use of potatoes In the diet In liberal uuantilles und of our common custom of serving lliem wllb meats. When tho price permits potatoes should by all means be made a part of tho diet. . i 6. RELIGION. . S (lod enters by a prlvtito door Into every Individual.

But the value of a smoko isn't only in what it C03t3; it's partly in who smokes it, and what it me ans to him. Most men who smoke will give up a quarter without thinking much about it; you want a smoke; you "drop in" and get it. A quarter's nothing to you then. . But over in France, where they can't "drop in" at the next corner, the soldiers are hungry for that quarter's worth of Am erican smokes, that you take and enjoy so lightly.
