Eskimo* Hav« Solid Repast When Ona of These Big Creatures Hua Been Taken. How to avoid waste is to be one of the lessons of the economy cumpnlgn, and at the ministry of food plans are being elaborated. In one department the visitor may see samples of oils from fish-waste, iiotash from banana stalks. fats from slaughter-house ref use, dried house swill for pig and poul try food, 1 It meal und grit for poultry from unsound fish, metals from old tins and scraps, and disinfectant pow der from flue-dust. A provincial mayor has collected a box of tinfoil saved from a year's but tonholes, to be converted into tin. Liv erpool has plant for extracting poultry und pig foods, ns well as fertilizers, from waste. Sheffield nnd Nottingham specialize In getting Iron out of unconsidered trifles, nnd Nottingham hns also dur ing the present year recovered 400 tons of manure from refuse. Glnsgow Is systematically salvaging the by-products of waste. Other towns are introducing “digesters,” the type of machine in whlcn a dead horse cun be tipped, with the result that fats and oils are secured, In addition to dried and prepared anima) foods. I(»ls reckoned that the metals found In dustbins total one ton per 1.000 of the population per annum and that annually 250,000 tons of paper are wasted. Nearly everything thrown Into the dustbin hns a commercial or chemical value. Not a scrap of metal should be cast aside, but all should be sold in ordinary trade channels or handed to any collecting organization which may be operating in a district.—London Tit-Bits. Among the Smith Sound tribe of northernmost Greenland the favorite diet is walrus meat, says Fitzhugh Green In Popular Mechanics Magazine. When one of these animals ha* been harpooned and, after a struggle, sometimes lasting many hours, is tln- ally dispatched, his 2,090-pound car cass is towed to the ice edge and hauled out for butchery. Shoulders, flippers, and sections of the trunk are buried under n pile of stones to guard against the depreda tions of thieving foxes. Entrails are raked out nnd fed to the famished wolves which form North Greenland dog teams. Follows then the feast. For entree a segment of the outer flipper has been saved, a little stringy as a rule, but of a peculiar rancid flavor exceed ingly tasty to the native palnte. The creature’s stomach may con tain several gallons of clams. One rip of a knife nnd the yellow lumpy broth fonms out over the snow to the im mense delight of the hunters. Instant ly all turn to and swallow great mushy handfuls of the repulsive, half-digested ptfSS. By this time the pot Is on and some thick lumps of meat and fat from near the backbone are boiling with frag rant (to the Eskimo) odors. Much meat has already been devoured raw by those too hungry to wait. Men are almost full. Sleeping skins are spread. Tales begin in sleepy, droning tones. “Brother, a bit of mum- muk-to-suaq" (the most delicious pnrt) one suggests. At which a young man rises and goes out. Presently he re turns with the huge tusked head. Dan gling from it is a foot or so of thick, white windpipe. This is cut into short lengths, apportioned out, and enten with the greatest gusto. EX-KING DOES USEFUL WORK Manuel of Portugal Now Director of School for the Re-education of Maimed 8oldlere. Royalty has suffered much In the present war, even at the hands of Its friends. When the Interallied confer ence In the Interest of permanently disabled soldiers was concluded In Paris, a party of delegates Journeyed to England to Inspect the great schools established there for the re-education of men maimed In battle. One of these schools In particular excited the visi tors’ admiration because of Its mar velous equipment and seemingly per fect management. This was all the more remarkable because the director of the school was a very young man. So much Impressed were the visitors that before leaving they waited upon the youthful director and fairly show ered him with praise. "It Is both a great responsibility and a high honor to you, sir,” said their spokesman, a distinguished French sci entist, “to have been placed nt your age at the head of so Important a school." "I agree with you, Doctor -------- . but In times pnst I have hnd occasion to direct matters even more Important than these,” replied the young man, who was none other than the ex-King Manuel of Portugal. Congresa of Polish Techniclane. The Polish engineers nnd technicians now residing In Russia held a congress at Moscow recently, nt which 285 per sons were present. The program con sisted of general discussions concern ing the rehabilitation and development of industry in Poland after the war, also the organisation of technical edu cation. Special sections dealt with architecture, mechanics, chemistry. electricity, and economics. It was decided to found n Polish fls- soclation of engineers and technicians In Russia, with branches in the prin cipal industrial centers, and also to undertake the publication of a bi weekly sheet that should become the organ of the society. Among the reso lutions adopted was one relating to the future economic development of Po- land. New Hotel for Lima, Peru. The Congress of Peru by recent leg islation has provided for an up to date hotel In Lima, to be constructed under the supervision of the national govern ment of Peru nnd to cost not less than £200.000 (973,000). The site set aside for the hotel is government property located in the heart of the city and Is to be acquired by the company con structing the hotel. The need of a modern hotel In Lima hns been keenly felt by the travelers for some time, sayB Commerce Reports. During recent years the number of commercial travelers nnd tourists vis iting the west coast of South America has more thnn doubled, and mnny of these have found It inconvenient or even Impossible to remain longer than a few days In Lima because of the lack of adequate hotel accommodations.

PLENTY OF STORAGE PLACES Woman Who Haa Made Home Into a Veritable "House of a Thou sand Closets.” One little woman living not far from New York, says Harriet Sisson Gilles pie ln’the Mother's Magazine, has been able by the expenditure of t. moderate sum of money to transform an Imprac ticable closetless dwelling into one in which housekeeping is not only a pleasure, but where the problem of storing away clothing has been satis factorily solved. Among her friends It Is known ns "the house of a thousand closets," which is nearly if not literally true. Every little cubby hole below the shingles hns been utilized for closet space. There are banks of closets on both the second nnd nttlc floors, to suy nothing of n cedar closet with sun and air nnd electric light, for the recep tion of the owner’s choicest posses sions. Some of the closets nre cedar lined, others sheathed with matched bonrds of North Carolinn pint, well shellacked to keep out the moths and frequently sprayed with a liquid in which oil of cedar plays a part. A printed list of every article con tained in the drawers nnd cupboards is tacked in plain sight in order that the ’ frantic search for inanimate things that seem suddenly to have taken wings nnd flown away, may be entirely obviated. New York and Quebec. Quebec City is older tnun New York It was founded in 1608 by Samuel d< Champlain, whereas the earliest date that can be set for the founding ol New York is 1610. New York Bay and the Hudson river were discovered bj Verrazano in 1524, and the discovery was followed by occasional visits ot trading and exploring vessels until the arrival of Henry Hudson In 1609, one year after Champluln had built hie fort and chateau on the slope leading np to the heights of Quebec. Begin ning with 1610 Dutch merchants dis patched several vessels to engage in the fur trade with the Indians, and I d 1614 a ship commander Adrian Block, having lost his vessel, built thef*On- rust” or "Restless” on the shores ol the upper harbor of New York. About the same time a few huts were bulll on the south end of Manhattan island. In 1623 the country was erected into a province by the Dutch, and the seat of government was established on Man hattan island, on part of the Ate of the present city of New York. Dutch rule commenced, and continued until September 8, 1664, almost one hundred years before the British acquired New France or Canada. Japanese Steel Production. Through recent Investigations hy the mining bureau, says Commerce Re ports, it is learned that the total pro ducing capacity of Japanese steel mills was 888.000 tons, in round figures, last August, according to the Japan Adver A Good Day*« Work. “Besides stringing 53.892 beans yes tiser. During the first half of the past terday (to get on the good side of the year 289.000 tons of various shapes cook) I loaded 2.295 pounds of auto were produced in this country, exclu mobiles on to vans,” writes a young sive of the colonies. Of this amount soldier from Edmonton, who has only 200.000 tons were produced by the gov recently “got across.” “Those were ernment steel works. The Japan Steel the exact figures for my share.
