follows: Strict vegetarians, 2.10,000,
000; practically vegetarians, but eat
ing a little fish or flesh, 450.000.000:
eating meat about once n week (on

To Calculate Interest.
A rule often recommended for cal
culating Interest for short periods Is
as follows: To find, the Interest of
nny given sum for any number of days,
multiply tho principal by the number
ot days and divide as follows: At 6
per cent, by 72; at 6 per cent, by 00;
at 7 per cent, by 52; at 8 per cent, by
45, nnd at 0 per cent, by 40. .1
Food Valut of Flth.
The high worth of fish as a food Is
strongly upheld by the Journal of the
American Medical Association, noting
that fish must be better cared for than
some other forms of animal food, but
concluding "It Is no Just criticism of
fish to say that they may be harmful
unless properly cared for."
Origin of Honeymoon. '.
To the aucU'iil8 honeymoon was a
luxurious beverage prepared with the
slrupy secretion of the bee. It was
the custom to drink of this diluted
honey for SO days, or a moon's age,
after a wedding feast. Hence. arose
the term honeymoon, which is of Tea-

FIREARMS ARE NOT FRAGILE
Shotgun Properly Cared For It Said to
, . . Bo Good for a Hundred
Thousand Shots. '
A question frequently asked Is, "How
long will my shotgun last?" or "How
many shots can I fire from my rlflo or
revolver before It wears out?"
It Is Impossible for anyone to say
just bow long a firearm will Inst, be
cause It Is lmpoaslblo to tell hefore
hand what kind of care It Is going to
get, and the care It receives makes ull
the difference between a few hundred
shots and a lifetime of faithful service.
Assuming that they are cleaned care
fully and consistently a good shotgun:
will show practically no fulling ofT In I
pattern fir penetration for' probably I
well over luo.uoo snots, a 22-cullbr 1
rifle and a revolver are both good for
30.000 or 40,000 shots. A high-power
rifle is good for about 8.000 to 5,000
shots; usually the higher the velocity
the shorter the life of the barrel.
Judging from these facts It would
appear that the higher the pressure
developed by the explosion the more
wear on the barrel, for the shotgun de
velops the least pressure and the high
power rifle the most, v ,
A rather Interesting sidelight on this I
auestion of barrel life Is a delerniltm. I

powder charge for about four minutes. I
AMOUNT OF FOOD NEEDED
Committee of Experts Hat Daolded
' Just What Must Be Supplied to
tho Average Man.
, As a basis for calculating the amount
of food which must be provided for
the human system the Interallied scien
tific food commission has found that
an average man of 154 pounds working
eight bours n day requires food having
an energy value of 8100 calories.
The commission consists of repre
sentatives of the United Stutes, France,
Italy, Belgium and Great Britain, and
Its purpose Is to consider the food prob
lem of the allies from a scientific point
of view, and In agreement with the In
terallied executives to make proposals
to the allied governments.
The commission agreed that, ln event
It should become Impossible to supply
8,300 calories of food, n reduction ot
10 per cent could be suffered for some
time without Injury to health. The
minimum ration of fat for the "aver
age mnn" was determined upon as two
and fivo-eighths ounces n day.
The commission recommended that a
uniform average milling extraction of
85 per cent for wheat be adopted
throughout the allied countries, but
this extrnotlon may vary from 80 per
cont iu summer to 00. per cent lu win

The "Nigger" In the ' ',;
Big Woodpile Works
l '''Ir.
. Thora is a big "nigger in the big,
woodpile," out at tho Palmer Xumbel'
Co.'s mill, who is working harder than
any 20-ox team over did, In the days
of old, when two or ton-ton logs were
"snaked out" of tho logging camps
up in the mountains, insteud of being
drawn out by donkey engines, and
loaded onto logging cars for shipping
down to the mills.
. ThiB ''.nigger,", by tho way, Is the
fellow who pops, his head up through
a holo in the floor every time a big
log is tossed onto the carriage, und
by deft movements, too swift for tho
eye. to sec, turns this huge l"g up,
or down, or over, Just as it suits the
sweet will of the head sawyer, oucytng
every motion he makes.
' Just watch him now see how he
lifts this two-ton log, tosses it in the
air, as you would a bnhy, sees that It
Is properly adjusted to the saw car
riage by big clamps, or jaws, while
the carriage moves buckwards and
forwards so Bwiftly that the two men
riding on it have to brace themselves,
or the shock would throw them off
Into space.
Eight hours a day this "nigger"
works, as one big log after another
is thrown into his arms, to toss up
and down, but he never gets tired, or
complains, or strikcB for higher wages.
All this 'nigger " wants, from one cloy
to unother, and one year after another,
h plenty of grease poured into his
elbows und joints, so that he can work
fast and swift, without getting "u hot
box" to stop his heroic endeavors to
put out about 100,000 feet of pine lum
ber every working day in tho year.
