A slight cold was the reason he wasn't allowed to go sliding with his chains. lie failed to find anything among his playthings that appealed to him, so In struck a few notes on the piano, lint was promptly told hy sister Allele "lo slop that noise!" The little fellow wondered what made Adele so cross. She was usually n good pal with her young brother, hut today she had only cross words for htm. "What's this?" he queried aloud. "Sister must have forgot to mall her letters: I'll go mall 'em, then maybe she won't be so cross at me." He had caught sight of a pile of let ters, but failed to notice that each one hud been opened, and that (hey were all but one addressed to his sister, lie counted them; there were twenty-four In all. He quickly put on his coal, cap, rub bers and mittens and, Inking the let ters under his arm, proceeded down the street. Davie walked on a little further, lli"ii (piile suddenly he retraced bis steps. He had an idea. Why not play lie was (he postman, and leave the tollers at different houses? With him, to think was to act, so he didn't slop to consider the fact that lie might not leave them at their Intended designations, but quickly ascended the steps of I lie nearest house and dropped the letter at Ihe top of the pile Into the mail box. Then he rang the hell and hurried on. Hi- repented this at four or five houses, then decided to try different sireels. Kre long he came to the home of Wilbur I ow lies. Wilbur was a par ticular friend of Allele's. In fact, al though Ihe little brother didn't quite understand Ihe situation, he had been Adele's promised husband, bill only a few days previous they bed parted with hitter words. "Cues I'll leave two letters for Wil bur," was the lad's next inspiration, lie carefully selei le I two fat loiter from Ihe hunch anil dropped them In I In- Im. one at a I ini".

To Own One's Own Home Means Ac quirement of a Certain Standing in the Community. "II-'s a home owner and a taxpay er," Is the best recommendation any man can have In his own community. It gives him a standing forthwith, not ko much as a person of some financial Importance, bul as a dependable, sub stantial and self-respecting eilizen, wisely regardful of his own and his family's happiness and best interests, and at the same time on asset to the neighborhood In which he lives. So universal Is the home-loving instinct that it. might almost be said there is something wrong morally with the man or woman who does not care to own n home; nnd that Is why the malcon tents, the habitual Industrial illstfirb er.i nnd the socially restive that In flict themselves on all countries are of i the element that Is very largely with out home ties. I Unless all signs fall, this Is to he the great American home-bulldlng year. Stimulated by the government's urgent advice to "own a home for your children's sake," and by the injunction that during the war It was patriotic not to build, now we can best show our patriotism by building, there has been a tremendous revival in the sen timent for home ownership. The In dications are that the unhappy classes of renters nnd boarders will be great ly depleted before the end of 1!)1!t, and that, there will be many thousands of additional families entered upon the life of happiness nnd contentment to be found only In the home. The price of building materials to day Is not high, ns compared with prices of oilier commodities, nnd the community that does not add mate rially to its total of homes this year Is likely to be rated ns lacking In pa triotism as well as good business Judgment. 15,600 ILL FE8M STARVATION Captain Forman Makes an Official Re port on Conditions to the Ameri can Relief Administration No Bread for Weeks.

Before the bolshevisfs abandoned Iiiga they murdered most of the civic leaders, played machine guns on the persons in one prison and sacked the homes of the wealthy, ac cording to an official report received here by the American relief adminis tration. This report, made by Capt. Howell Forman, head of the administration's Baltic mission, and forwarded by Her bert Hoover, director general of the organization, asserted that Inhabitants of Kiga. heartened by the arrival of American supplies, had turned on their oppressors nnd now were hunting down bolshevists and executing many daily. The report warned that "a large rad ical element is left in the population, nnd failure of the authorities to pro vide food until the city can get on its feet again might lead them, with the j assistance of the bolshevists still In 1 hiding, to attempt another uprising." I Even with the arrival of American ! supplies food conditions were pictured j lis distressing. "Hoof rabbits"- -bolshevik for house cats are bringing 'almost prohibitive prices, as they are virtually the only form of meat avail able. ; 15,000 Persona III. Captain Forman reported that 187, 000 persons nearly 15,000 of whom are seriously ill from typhus, effects of starvation nnd other causes are receiving a meal a day from 50 Amer ican kitchens, while American bread Is being distributed from 90 depots.

Cambridge.., Mass. "Thirst is a "purely local phenomenon," according to Dr. V. B. Cannon of Harvard. And that's not all. Listen: "The pre-eminent factor is the rela tive drying of the mucosa of Hie mouth and pharynx. This may result from excessive use of the passage f i breathing, as in prolonged speaking cr singing, or may be caused by de ficient salivary secretion." Doctor Cannon says tne latter cone' tton represents true thirst, dependent on the fact that the salivary gland!: which keep the buccal and pharyngea' mucosa moist require water for then propel1 functioning.

How "the hungry hired help and neighbors do eat! How. they do enjoy and appreciate good cooking! 1? will never decrease your reputation as a cook, Madam. Hathcr it will surely increase it. It is nothing but pure cow's milk evaporated to the consistency cf cream. In creaming vegetables, in making bread, pastry and cakes wherever you use milk in cooking it gives a flavor that is very appetizing. Carnation can be whipped like cream, vhen. thoroughly chilled ot course, which proves it3 quality. Carnation is used by thousands of people just as it comes from the can for cream on fruit and cereals and in t:a and coffee. The sealed can preserves it, when kept in a cool dry place, sweet and purs until used. Buy Carnation by ths case. Lay in a stock of it now, and you will be free cf milk trouble at all times. 1 r Tte Carnation Cue Si lilt Stctiroea Ii "Tie Answer to the Milk Quettioa" On the Farm 1 ii is Your Grocer Has Carnation "The Story of Carnation," containing 114 recipes, tent uon receipt of your addrcM.
