This Suit Is Yours A reader of last week’s Household asks me to please put in every-day language the terms proteins, carbohy drates, fats and minerals, so that sne may apply them to her family’s hills of fare. Science has had the terms for her own long enough, and we will try to make it ours from now on. You know that I have hammered a long time on the idea of an efficient kitchen, one that saves steps. The ^up- to-date farmer never thinks of taking one or even two buckets and watering his stock. He has some way of con veying a volume of water to a trough in the lot. Yet his wife often has to “tote” water even a greater distance, bucket at a time, to cook three meals a day “as long as both shall live.” Efficiency means producing the best possible results, whether from a wife’s (or husband’s) work down to the hive ot bees in the orchard. A working knowledge of household chemistry will teach- anyone the use and abuse of foods for man or beast. Correct proportions keep the human machine just as our Maker intended it should be, a sane mind in a sound body. When we try to live on one sort of food alone our system gets as onesided or out of order as to feed stock on fodder and no corn. However, the trouble with many people is that they try to live on too much corn and too little fodder, for there is an equiv alent for fodder that we should eat. Protein, when put into plain English, means muscle making, and you will be more interested in what seems a verj r commonplace duty if you will no tice how j'ou use too little or too much fuel as j*ou eat your next meal. All meats, fish, eggs, milk, cheese, nuts, dried peas or dried beans are protein, or muscle makers. The carbohydrates and sweets, or heat-produeing foods, are potatoes, macaroni, rice, cereals, bread, cakes, pies, puddings, preserves. Bananas also come in this group. The fats, or reserve force, consist of butter, cream, olive oil, peanut oil or butter, cotton seed oils, very fat fish, bacon and its by-products, nuts. The minerals, or medicinal group, are all green vegetables, cucumbers, let tuce, tomatoes, celery, onions, egg plants, the various greens (or salads) and all fresh fruits except bananas. Those used for bulk include most of the foods in the mineral group, and also coarse cereals, like our hominy or grits, big hominy, cornbread, rye or graham bread, bran muffins and dried fruits stewed. The dissolvents are our drinks, ex cept alcohol, and also soups, broths, gelatines and water- ices. Of course ice cream goes with the fat, or reserve force, group. Think of what you ate for breakfast this morning, or your dinner yesterday and see if you live on a balanced ration. If you were packing your suplies for a long, hard tramp, see what you would put in there to supply strength, keep the body free from w r aste material and give you reserve force so that you would come home in better shape than you went. It’s interestin. I sat down to a table not long ago where there were two sweets, two starches and roast beef. Was that a balanced ration? If a man should be so situated that he could only take one food he would be forced to take a protein, for the muscle making group are really the only ones that in addition to their muscle building qualities supply any fat or mineral; their supply is small but they would add a ce»- tain amount of fat which would furnish warmth and action, and their minerals would help the blood and bQnes. Starchy and sweet foods combine with the oxy gen of the body apd are burned in the human furnace (or stomach) and pro duce energy and warmth. I have heard old soldiers say that when rations grew scarce in the Confederate army they sometimes had their choice between a slice of bacon or a spoonful of sugar. In this age sweet chocolate is given sol diers because it is a quick fuel. The mother who feeds her family on nothing but cereals, potatoes and bread, is not building for the future. There will be little reserve force. The carbohydrates only give fuel. Do not forget that these carbohydrates only give quick fuel. Fats are the ones for reserve force. But they need the balanced ration for meat and no bread ferments in the stomach. Many sick people succumb in an incredibly short time because they are anaemic or “run down.” In other words, they have not had a balanced ration. I heard a doctor say a certain man had no chance to live as soon as he heard that he had typhoid fever, because he habitually took his “dram” daily and it conteracted the nu tritive effects of his food. There wasn’t any reserve force—and one man died with pneumonia in three days because the al cohol In his system had spoiled a mag nificent physique. This reserve force *s the power to resist disease or allow hard labor. The acid and minerals act as medicine on the system, and with due respect for our friend, the doctor, come nearer to our Maker’s intentions. St. Duke was a physician and an acceptable disciple and our Savior cured the sick, so I would not do away with doctors nor hospitals, but In at least ninety out of a hundred cases of sickness the suffering springs from a violation of nature’s laws—fresh air, sun shine, exercise and proper food. The glutton is almost as disgusting as the drunkard. Now comes the bulky group, and they form an important part in that well- balanced ration. They give the body the comfortable, satisfied feeling. Cheese is a highly concentrated food, and one should eat very little of it; therefore macaroni, milk and cheese are mixed, with the latter article form ing a very small part of the dish. One could eat protein, fat and carbohj’drate enough for a day and not feel satis fied with the meal; this is where the bulky food is needed. At every meal there should be some of this bulky food. Then it scrapes or scours the digestive canal and carries out the waste, or the material the body does not need, and thus prevents auto-in toxication, or self-poisoning. And don’t imagine that digestion can be carried on without liquids. Tea, coffee and alcohol are not food. With these exceptions, or their near rela tions, there is not much danger of one drinking too much. And the food taken into the body must be dissolved before the tissues can give the blood its share. Too many people are too lazy, or what shall I call it? to give their fam ilies the food necessary. Too much trouble to prepare vegetables, dress a chicken or change the steady diet. Too ^ew fruit trees are on the average farm—almost none for the renters, for every renter is afraid to leave any thing for the' next one coming. Town people live off of canned things and light bread for the same reason. What is that reason? I hope a few* teachers’ or mothers’ clubs will take up this sub ject, give prizes for the best bill of fare, for the farmer's family, the child’s lunch or the merchant’s family, and send me the winning ones, and I shall be pleased to print them for the benefit of less progressive communi ties.

ASKER, President BANNER TAILORING' CO. Dept, is, CHICAGO HOW SHALL I! HOW CAN I! Dear Miss Thomas: The question comes, “What makes It worth while?” This question has been asked many, many times by many different classes of women. I do not doubt but that the woman of millions, with a good husband, has become dissatisfied with her lot just the same as an old maid school teacher. We sit down and ponder over our troubles until they seem 1 to' become unbearable. We forget there are thousands of others with worse trouble than ours. We forget every body but ourselves, and, oh, how lonesome and tired and forsaken we do feel! We come to feel that life is not worth while, but at last we awake from our moody thoughts and look about us. We see struggling humanity marching on and on. Some one striving for the right; some do not seem to care; others are just working and working to lay up riches and gain honor for themselves, and we ask the questions: “What shall I do with my life to make it worth while?” ‘Wliat can I do with my life to make It worth while?” After all, what is worth while in this life? Is it money? Is it good times? Is it our own happiness, or is. it the happiness of others? The married sister does not find happiness in striving for herself, but with pleasure she works from morning until night for her husband and children’s happiness. We go to church and see the countenance of a white- haired sister beaming with joy. Perhaps we wonder what sh e finds in life to make i worth while. Perhaps she has learned to take God at His word and is striving to do the Master’s wilt. Many have learned that by serving* their fellow-man they are doing their Master’s will, gaining love, joy and peace for their own souls, and when they come to the end of tlm way they will surely find their lives have been worth while. Now, what more can I do with my life than to— ‘‘Live for those who love me. For those who - know me true— For the heaven that bends above me. And the good that I can do. “Live for the wrong that needs resistance For the soul that needs assistance For the futrue in the distance; Live for the good that lean do.” It is— “’The little deeds of kindness, The little words of love. Makes tills world of ours Like the heaven above.” Not only for the old maid school teachers, but everybody as well. GENE OLSEN. A NEW JOB FOR EVELYN. Dear Miss Thomas: I am writing a few lines in answer to Evelyn Dare, whose letter ap peared In your department of the Semi-Weekly Journal, October 17. I would say in the first place she seems to have one of the main requisites to happiness, a good education, which enables one to enjoy even the inarticulate ex pressions of nature, and the world about one. In reference to people being happy about their work, some one has said if we do not get real enjoyment out of our work we will not get much out of life. One main reason why we do not get more pleasure out of our work is because we do not have a variety of work. American people have attained a great liking for variety. I notice Evelyn Dare frankly admits being an old maid country school teach er, desiring a means by which she can get distraction or contentment. It occurs to me that she can get satisfaction and pleasure by trying to help the most neglected class in our country, the farmer’s wife. The government is now seeding to help the farmer’s wife and is anxious to receive any information and suggestions that may help them. They have sent out inquiries to their crop reporters asking them to consult their wives in reference to improving their surroundings. Now, as I have no wife to consult in that matter, I would -appreciate any suggestions Evelyn Dare might make along constructive lines, and I would gladly Include them in my report. Evelyn Dare says in her melancholy moods the thought presents itself. “Was I wise uot to marry?” That is something she will never know, go she should forget it. No doubt many women do make up their minds to take the next chance, while in moods like this, which is the most dangerous peiiod of a life, for it beclouds the nfind, and keeps one from eeing the far ide of near thing. “Seek to be good but rfim not to be great; A woman’s noblest station is retreat. Her finest virtues fly from public sight. I Domestic worth shuns too strong a light. ’ “Oh woman, in our hours of ease, Uncertain, coy and hard to please, Heaven’s best gift; man’s joy and pride iu prosperity; Man’s support and comfort in affliction.” God bless her. JOHN H. ROOKS. Lacrosse, Ga. LOVE THE INCENTIVE Dear Miss Thomas: Many years ago I en tered the school room full of ambition to conquer the world (teachers’ world) and only recognized my pupils as stepping stones up the ladder of fame. I cared nothing for their hearts; their brains were my only interest. I need not say I was successful. I accomplish ed my purpose, namely, to cram my pupils full of knowledge and my services were in constant demand In schools where the pupils were indifferent to their stiftlles. I need not say I used all my powers, both mental and Bttt’ore the close of the last year of their pilgrimage,' under the leadership of Moses, the Israelites had conquered and taken possession of all of that ter ritory lying east of Jordan and stretch ing from the sputh as far north as Dan. This was such a fine pasture land that it was given to Reuben and Simeon and one-half of the tribe of Manasseh on condition that their war riors would cross the river with tlieir brethren and assist them in the con quest of Canaan. That part of his work having been completed, Moses realized that the next step was to cross the river and take possession of the Promised* Land. It had tieen the dream of years for him, and so great was his desire to complete the task which he had assumed, and so keenly he felt the responsibility of the j people who were following him, that he prayed to Jehovah to allow him to lead the people in; but God answered his prayer by refusing to grant his re quest. His sin had been forgotten a long time before this, but, as sin al ways means loss, he had to suffer the loss of the thing that he desired more than anj'thing else. I wish that I had the power to see the scene which took place during the next few days. I wish I had the power to describe it to you so that I might show you what vision I have of them. Let us see if we cannot enter into the spirit of those days and breathe its at mosphere. But before we do so, let us know something about the Book of Deuternomy, which describes these scenes. If there ever was a book that created a sensation, it was the Book of Deuteronomy. Years after this time King- Josiah determined to repair the temple, which had become quite dilapi dated, and in the process of the work a chest was fotind which contained this book. It was brought to the king and read in his hearing. It made a pro found impression upon him. He gath ered the people together and had it read in their hearing. There never was such a reformation as that which took place in the kingdom of Judah as the result of the reading of this book. As they appreciated the curses which would come upon their nation if they turned away from their God, and as they realized that, they were then; in the midst of the very things against which they had been warned, they trembled at the thought of the wrath of God, which was coming upon them, and the reformation resulted. The Book of Deuteronomy is the heart of the Old Testament. Every de vout Jewish boy recited a chapter of it dailj*. It had a marked influence on the life of Isaiah. Jeremiah quoted it frequently. Hosea and Amos show its effect upon their lives. Ezekiel has many references to it; and almost every quotation from the Old Testament which Jesus, the great prophet of Naz areth, made comes from this book. No wonder the high critics have tried in vain to destroy it. They might as well try to destroy the earth with a grain of gunpowder. It consists largely of the ' five speeches which Moses made after ho realized that God was not going to allow him to lead his people into Ca naan. I saj' mainly because there are parts connecting these speeches more or less descriptive, and there is also the Book of the Covenant, or a sum mary of all the laws, which Moses had given them during the forty years of their life together in the wilderness, which comes at the close of his second address. In the judgment of those physical, to accomplish my purpose. But some how I was uot satisfied with myself or sur roundings, and was constantly finding fault with everything. I began to think myself a failure until one day I accidentally overheard a conversation not intended for my ears, but which opened my eyes. This one sentence, “I don’t believe Miss H. ever loved a human being,- and that is why the children don’t love her. A child knows by instincts, it seems.” Awakened iu my soul that spark of divine, love which is pos sessed by every one of God’s creatures. From that day I knew what was making me dissatis fied. a loveless life. J resolved then to find something to love In every child, and I found it, but It was no. eapy. .matter to get the children to respond to this love. In time they found out that J really loved them. 1 had no trouble to -get • thfem : to obey - my slight est wish, and, oh, hovf. happy 1 was to see • hem coming to meet me if I was late, each eager to do some little-service or offer some token and begging, for a fairy tale. I was satisfied with myself and surroundings and everybody seemed so good and kind—a reflection of my own kindness. “T-ook for goodness—look for gladness, and you’ll find them all the while.” Many years have passed sinCe I learned that to be happy one must find, something to love, and none of us, I am sure, will have far to seek. No # duty, however irksome; no work, however monotonous, is a burden where love is the in centive. Life can never be monotonous to the teacher who loves her pupils; she will even love to correct exercises for their sweet sakes, and If she is a loving teacher some prince sharm- lng will want her all too soon, and she will be ready to assume all those cares and re sponsibilities of which iove is the only lncen- fiye, RURAL TEACHER. Pick Out the Dyspeptic You Can Tell Them Anywhere and Especially if You See One Eat A Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablet Will Di gest Any MeaL One of the saddest sights at a roy ally rich dinner is to see a man or a woman unable to eat because of dys pepsia. It is really a crime to continue this martyrdom when all one has to do is to eat a little Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab let. Just carry a tablet in your purse and after each meal eat it as you would a peppermint. It will digest the meal and surely convince you that food will not hurt “Too Bad.” you> One grain of the ingredients which compose a St dart’s Tablet will digest 3,000 grains of fish, soup, coffee, ice cream, meats, vegetables and pastries. The whole idea of this great natural digester is to aid nature to do her work without exhaustion and it certainly ac complishes this result. Stuart’s Dyspep sia Tablets aie our . best know • remedy for al‘ stomach and dys pepsia troubles. It is positively wor derful to see the way one of tlies- little tablets wil digest a meal. And no one can real ize it until one has used these tablets. * ~ used to toe Like Kim.” Every drug store sells Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab lets and sells them in huge quanti ties. No mattei where you are lo cated you may go to any druggist and buy a 50c box that will last ’you a long time. Ab solutely convince you dyspepsia can be prevented. Many thousands of people use these tablets occasionally just to keep their digestion always perfect. If you stay up late or overeat then take a tablet before bedtime; there will be no hor rible dreams‘or bad mouth taste. Go to your druggist now and buy a 50c box and go armed against any kind of stomach trouble.—(Advt,) “I Know I’ll Sick.” Be ! whose opinion should have more I weight, these five orations of Moses are | -without an equal in the literature of the world. The orations of Demos thenes and of Edmond Burke cannot bear comparison with these orations of Moses. Really, the whole book is the fare well address of Moses, but divided into five parts. Let us now see if we can not picture in our minds the scenes which were presented when these ad- j dresses were made. Encamped on the : Plain of Moab are the people of Israel, j each of the tribes in its proper place j with reference to the tabernaqle. The ■ land east of the river has been con- j quered. The grand old man has real- ■ ized»that his desire is to be denied him, so he gathers his people together and addresses them. He recites how God had led them out, and how He had dealt with them; how He was angry with him for their sakes; how they had con quered the Amorites and the Moabites and the Midianites; he tells them how he had desired to complete his task, but how God had answered him, deny ing his request; and he presented to them as his successor his faithful servant, Joshua. He recalls how God has dealt with them in the past, and urges them to be strong and have good courage, since God will go with them and fight for them on the west side of Jordan as He has alreadj r fought for them on the east side. In his next address he not only lays down the great principles of righteousness and unrighteousness, but in the most elo quent way deals with specific details as he shows the curses that will come upon them if they forsake their God. At the close of this address he deliv ers to them the Bbok of the Covenant. A little later the scene has changed somewhat. A small portion of the peo ple selected for that purpose, rehearse the blessings and curses that are to be pronounced by the people as a whole, after they have gotten into the Land of Canaan; but before the rehearsal is over Moses breaks out into one of those marvelous songs of his, showing him a genius at poetry as well as at law making. In his fourth address* he makes a marvelous advance from national to personal religion. He shows the respon sibility which rests upon every man, woman and child to do God’s will. He shows how near God is to them, that they may know His will, and in a won derful climax sets before them life and death, blessings and curses. I think I can almost hear his tone sometimes as the grand old man pleaded with the people then to choose life. There was great' expectancy about the -amp: every one realizes that something unusual is about to occur. At last the summons comes to the servant of God. God tells him to go up on Mount Nebo, and there He will allow him to see the Land of Promise, but that he may not enter, because of his sin at the Waters of Meribah in Kadesh. The old man is ready. He does not hesitate to obey the summons of his God. There is no shrink ing from the unknown. There is too much trust in his heart for that. He has been living the life of obedience. It is his habit to obey, a habit that he has formed many years ago, and with out question or hesitation he does as God’s bids. Look at him as with undimmed eye and firm step (for although he was 120 years old, his eye was not dimmed or his natural force abated)—look at him as he walks from the plain toward the mount. It is a distance of about six miles. The word has gone forth through the camp in that mysterious way that news of this kind travels. The tribes are lined up to bid the old man farewell. The leader who has loved them so well and who has been so faithful. As he passes each of the tribes, they are eager to catch his last word to them. They listen as he blesses each tribe as he passes, and they treasure up his words as their choicest legacy. They have pre served them for us, and we may read them in the thirty-third chapter of Deu teronomy. Finally he has passed by the last of the tribes, and reached the foot of the mount. As he turns and looks back upon them spread out before him, his soul exults in what he sees God is going to do for his people, and he breaks out into this song: There is none Vie unto God, O Jesh- \ run, W : rideth upon the heavens for thy And in His excellency on the Skies, The :t€i-:.ai God is thy dwelling place. And unuerneath are the everlasting arms. Happy art thou, O Israel, Who is like unto thee? A people saved by Jehovah, The shield of Thy help. And that is the sword of Thy Excel lency! And their enemies shall submit them selves unto thee, And thdu shalt tread upon their high places. These are his last words to his people. Words of blessing and a great promise. He turns and goes up the mount, and is lost to their sight. He goes alone. No one can go with him at this time. At last he has reached the top of Nebo. , What a wonderful panorama it is that he Stees! Toward the south, the Arabah. As his eyes turn toward the southwest he sees the peaks and the plains of the higher hill country, and beyond them the sea on the west. As he looks north- j ward he sees the country of Naphtali and Dan, and snow-capped Hermon in | the distance. He sees the Hills of Basham, the place where the head waters of the Jordan river are also, and stretched out at his feet in the plain of Moab the camp of Israel, and across the river the City of Jericho, and its palm trees in the fertile plain. What wonderful vision it was that Moses had. He could see the land, but he could not go into it. The Jewish commentators think that he also was given by God the power -o see into the future of his people, and 3*ce the kingdom of David and Solomon in their glory; to see them in their sin when they forsook God, and follow Baal; and a vision of that which is yet in the future, when the people of Israel shall be established in the land, which God gave to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and to his seed forever, when Jesus of Nazareth the Son of David shall sit upon the throne of hig father, David, and shall have dominion over the whole wide world. We may or may not believe in that conception. We do know’ that nearly 2,000 years later Moses was allowed to place his feet upon the land which he was not allowed to enter at this time, when he talked w r ith the Christ about His exodus, which He was about to accomplish from Jerusalem. As prom ised, He was the prophet like unto Moses, who should come and lead His people out from the greater bondage than that of Egypt, and into a better possession than that of Canaan. This was a glorious vision that he had. Then God’s finger touched him and he slept. “The angels of God upturned the sod, and laid the dead man there,” but not without conflict, for Jude, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, tells us. nearly 2,000 years later that the devil and Michael, the archangel, had an awful fight contending over the body of Moses. It would have been all that the devil wanted if he could have gotten possession of it, and make his sepulchre a sacred spot, his people would have made it a place of worship, and turned from worshipping God; but Michael prevailed, and no man lcnoweth of his sepulchre until this day. Can you not imagine the people as they waited for their leader to return? Can you appreciate anything' of their anxiety when he did not? Do you not suppose that searching parties were formed to see if it was not possible to find him, or his body? Can you not appreciate th<* gloom which fell over the camp when they realized that their mighty leader was dead? But finally they became convinced, and mourned for him thirty days. Joshua took hold, and they yielded to him the same loyal ty and obedience which had been given to Moses and^which he had enjoined upon them. It is fitting that the Book of Deuter onomy should close with an epitaph to Moses, and it is fitting that that epitaph should be written by God Himself, as the spirit of God moved upon some man to pen it. xt is rather remarkable that not until this time was he given the highest title, .which had been his to bear. He had been called law-giver, the deliverer, a man of God.. He had been general and poe't and priest. He had been a prophet. He had been a wonderful organizer, but now his highest honor has been conferred upon him with the epitaph of Moses, the servant of Je hovah. The epitaph also states that there was no prophet like him. and it gives the secret of his greatness. He spoke with God as a man would speak with his friend face to face. Miracles were, done by many men, but not until Jesus, the prophet like unto Moses came, were any miracles performed which would compare with those which Moses did. He was great as a law-giver; he was great as a teacher. He was great as a leader; he was great as a poet; but, above all, he was great as the servant of Jehovah, and all of his greatness came from his communion and fellow ship with God. In each of these points was Jesus greater. For whereas Moses attained to the high place of servant in Jehovah’s house, Jesus was the son, and was that much greater than Mofees, as the son ia the greater than the servant. If w« might single out one thing in the lifo of Jesus which explains his greatness* it was His constant fellowship and com munion with God, His Father. God will not call upon you to lead out any people from slavery, but if- you follow the lines which Moses and Jesua mapped out for us by constant fellow ship and communion with God, you aisd may be great. ipyp «1 :&KtZZZi.X£,. •Coming Every Week — 52 Times a Year — Not 12.
