Served Turn Only as
Symbol of Kindness
Mr. Smith, writes a contributor to
the Youth's Companion, had made
particularly good catcl of black
bass. Mrs. Smith picked out a nice
big one and sent one of the boys
with it over to their neighbors in
the adjoining cump. "We won't
bother to clean It for them," she
said, "because that big boy of theirs
can do It just as well as we can."
A few days later the grateful
neighbor, not to be outdone, re
turned the favor by bringing across
to the Smith's back door a nice
juicy raspberry pie freshly made
from the wild raspberries growing
In the woods behind the camps.
That day the storekeepe- across the
lake bad his weekly shipment of ice
cream from the city, and none of
the Smiths felt much like eating
pie. The next day they all went
on a trip down the stream, and the
third day when the pie was served
It had become so soft and soggy
that everyone refused to touch it.
Wrapping it up carefully in a news
paper, so that no one should see It,
Mrs. Smltb gave It to young Tom
and asked him to take it out in the
woods and bury It.
The next morning Mr. Smith went
out to dig worms for his day's fish
ing. As he turned up the moist
earth there, lying side by side, sym
bols of neighborly kindness, were
the black bass and the raspberry pie.
New Microscopes That
Have Marvelous Power
The great world of little things
revealed by the microscope Is about
to become greater still, for new In
struments have been Invented which
have enormously Increased the mag
nifying power which Is at man's
command. News of a new microscope
which will magnify an object over
600,000,000 times, or &,000 diam
eters, has lately come from two
sources at once. One such instru
ment has been Invented by Doctor
Siedentopf of the famous Zeiss
firm of Jena; another capable of
giving even greater magnification,
has been perfected by N. D. (,'hopra,
a British metallurgist, who has al
ready solved with It the problem of
avoiding oorrosion In train mils, a
discovery which will save enormous
sums of money In all countries.
A good microscope of moderate
power will magnify an object about
600 diameters, or 360,000 times in
square measure. Such a mnimlflca
tion as this Is difficult to imagine,
but some idea of the power of the
new instruments may be gathered
from the fact that a tennis ball, If
It could be viewed through tbem,
would appear about one and a half
miles in diameter. My Magazine.
London.
Inconvenient "Currency"
Economists tell learnedly why
money makes the commercial world
go round, but a Parisian opera
singer of a decade ago learned the
lesson in one classic experience.
She was determined to tour the
world thoroughly and she stopped
over in the Society Islands, where
her manager contracted to have her
sin? for one-third the receipts. Her
share of "the box office" was 3 pigs
22 turkeys, 41 chickens. 5,000 coco
nuts and an unrnmputerl quantity of
bananas and orHnges. She couldn t
convert her proceeds, the natives
had no money. She fed the fruit
to the animals and donated her
banryard to the community when
she sailed away.
First Coinage of Silver
8Ilver was first coined on the Isle
of Aeglna. Here the ancient Greeks
BtamDed a turtle on their first sll
ver coins over 700 years before the
Chrlstlnn era. The first silver coins
In the United States were Issued by
the Massachusetts colony, which
minted small sliver coins, familiarly
known as the pine-tree shillings.
The mint was closed by order of the
crown In 1684. The first coins made
by the United States government
were dated 1793.
Color Blindness Permanent
Color blindness Is not curable,
and sometimes exists In eyes that
are otherwise normal. It Is found
In 8 or 4 per cent of men and less
than 1 per cent of women. It Is
r,a.Hnlnrlv tinnnrtnnt thnt rMllwnv
and marine employees do not have
this defect, since the safety of the
traveling public depends In a large
measure upon the accuracy with
which red and green signals are observed.
Buttoni Denote Rank
A button Is worn on the headgear
of Chinese officials, both civil and
military, as a badge of rank. There
are nine ranks, the first and highest
being distinguished by a transpar
ent red (ruby) button; the second
by opaque red (coral) ; the third by
transparent blue (sapphire) ; the
fourth by transparent white (orys-
tal) ; the sixth by opaque white ;
the seventh by plain gold; the
eighth by worked gold, and the
ninth by plain gold with a certain
character engraved upon It.
Bold Forgeries
The name "Ireland Forgeries" Is
given to certain Shakespeare auto
graphs, private letters and plays,
which a youth named Ireland
claimed to have-, discovered, but
which he had In reality forged. One
of the j)lays, called "Vortigprn,"
was pi$duced at the Drury Lane
theatetf April 2, 1796, but proved to
be a vapid and senseless production.
Ireland soon after acknowledged
the forgery and published his "Con
fessions" In 1805. Kansas City

in hot rate
Keeping well in hot weather Is
largely a matter of using common
sense in aiding the body to carry on
its normal functions in a normal way.
The human body possesses wonderful
means of keeping the body tempera
ture constant, even under extremes
of heat and cold. But like any other
automatic mechanism, you cannot ex
pect it to act satisfactorily if you
overload it or overdrive it, when it
is already under a strain.
When the weather is hot, the sur
face blood vessels are expanded and
the sweat glands bathe the body with
perspiration.- By evaporation, the
skin ib cooled the rapidity and de
gree of cooling depending on the rate
that the air is moving. Drafts are
harmless in summer, unless the cool
ing of the body is too rapid. A fan is
as useful "to the human machine 88
it is to an automobile.
A daily bath keeps the pores open.
Light clbthing aids in rapid evapora
tion of the perspiration. Some exer
cise is essential, but over exertion in
the hot sun should be avoided. The
matter of diet is one of importance.
The Eskimo eats heartily of fats and
oils. .His tropic brother lives largely
on fruits and vegetables." There is a
reason. Fats, sugars,' and starches
are heat producing. Nature gave us
green vegetables and fruit in abund
ance during the summr season. Over
eating overloads the system. Eat
moderately of a varied diet. Ice
cream, sodas, and sundates may sat
isfy the palate and temporarily cool
the throat, but they are heat produc
ing, nevertheless.
Food spoils more quickly in hot
weather on account of the rapid
growth of the- organisms of decay. Be
careful when away from home that
the food served is not tainted; that
fruit is not over-ripe. Plenty of cold
water is essential; an extra amount
is needed in summer on account of
the activity of the sweat eland
Plenty of sleep or, at least, plenty of
rest in bed, even if it is too hot to
sleep, will aid in keeping one strong
and well during the heated period.
As long as you drink freely of wa
ter, keep the head and neck well pro
tected, wear clothing suitably light
and loose, the sun seldom has any in
jurious effect on healthy individuals
who are temperate in their food and
drink.

Today it is no more necessary for
you to make your jams and jellies
fay the old, long-boil method than it
is for you to light your house with
candles or spend the morning wash
ing lamp chimneys.
The reason for the old-fashioned
method of "boiling fruit down" was
that no fruit contains enough jelly
ing substance to jellify all of its
juice. Therefore a large amount of
juice had to be boiled away.
But now with Certo (the jellying
substance of fruit refined and bot
tled) you can use any fruit you like
even one which has never jelled
before boil it only one or two min
utes, and get a perfect tender "set."
This short boil with Certo saves
all of your fruit and juice ita
fresh flavor its bright color its
bulk. You get half again more jam
or jelly. It takes less time to make
it and it tastes better, looks better
and cannot fail to jell.
A recipe book comes with each
bottle of Certo. Your grocer car
ries Certo, or you can send 10c (for
postage) and get a trial half-size
bottle which will make from 6 to
10 glasses of jam or jelly, depend
ing upon the recipe used. Address
