Ever Meet A Pumpkin?
YOU may still occasionally meet
a whole pumpkin in really
rural districts, according to Dr.
Williafn A. Taylor, Chief of the
U. S. Bureau of Plant Industry,
but they are rapidly disappearing
from the fresh vegetable markets,
only to make their reappearance
on grocers’ shelves in cans.
There are several good reasons
for this. The size of a whole
pumpkin makes its use impracti
cal for any one who has not a
large family or is not going to
enter a pie eating contest. Few
housewives plan nowadays to
make six pies at once. And then
canned pumpkin is delicious and
saves a whole lot of labor and
time in the kitchen. Everyone
knows how to make an ordinary
pie with canned pumpkin, but
here is an elaborate one which
fairly
Makes Your Mouth Water
Pumpkin Pie with Honey Pecan
Garnish: Add one-half teaspoon
salt, three-fourths teaspoon ginger
and one-half teaspoon cinnamon
to two-thirds cup sugar. Add to
one and one-eighth cups canned
pumpkin. Add two slightly beat
en eggs and one cup milk. Pour
into pie tin lined with pastry and
bake, having oven hot at first
(450° for 15 minutes), then lower
(325° for 30 minutes), or until set.
Serve with unsweetened whipped
cream dropped by spoonfuls over
the top. Pour honey in little
drops over the cream, and sprinkle
the whole with pecan meats.*
Take Internal Baths For
Good Health
Athens, Ga. “Saturday nite“
baths have been the bugaboo for
children for a long time. While
sometimes baths were required three
times a week, or in some eases daily.
Then to add to their task already
seemingly burdensome to the child,
they were constantly reminded to
wash their necks, ears, teeth and
feet. Of course, practically every
one is familiar with the parental ad
vice on “outside” cleanliness, but
how many of us give our bodies
daily internal baths. Prof. Virginia
Harris Harrold, of the home econo
mics division of the Georgia State
College of Agriculture, says, “We
think nothing about using five or
ten gallons of water for the outside
cleaning of our bodies, but often re
fuse to use even a half a gallon on
the inside.”
“Fifty-eight per cent of the hu
man body is water. We usually
think of bones as being relatively
dry, but they owe one-third of their
weight to water. Serious things
happen to the body when the water
supply is cut, or the per cent in the
body is lowered for some reason.
This happens in severe cases of diar
rhea, vomiting, or fever. An infant
in such a condition cannot utilize
food, due to the reduced amount of
digestive juices ami the conditions
of the tissues of the intestines.”
“Experiments have been run on a
very low water intake, and these
young men soon developed head
aches, nervousness, loss of appetite,
and digestive disturbances, which
were promptly relieved by increased
water intake. Our natural reaction,
thirst, usually prevents the symptoms
of severe lack of water, but we
must depend on habit for generously
supplying the body’s needs.”
“Water has been proven the best
stimulator of digestive juices, and
is therefore better than hot soup,
boullion, grapefruit or other highly
seasoned cocktails for the first course
of meal. The drinking of one or
two glasses of water before meals
is therefore an excellent habit. This
is especially true in the morning,
when our digestive, organs are slug
gish after the relaxation during
sleep.”
“Contrary to popular belief, wat
er is valuable at meals, if not used
to wash down great “hunks” of food.
This mistaken idea came from the
belief of early physiologists who
thought water would dilute the di
gestive juices, and therefore hinder
digestion. We now know, that just
the opposite of this is true, because
the more water the more juice is
secreted.
“Any foreign substance in the
body or blood is normally taken up
by the kidneys, and excreted in the
form of urine. The kidneys act as
a kind of filter for the blood, and
if they do not have sufficient water
to dissolve these products, or have
a concentrated secretion, this be
comes injurious both to the urinary
tract and the body as a whole.”
“Water not only flushes the kid
ney, but the intestines, thus combat
ing constipation. I heard recently
of a severe case of constipation that
finally produced convulsions. The
physician has given no medicine, but
a quart of hot water every morning,
with a little salt, and the juice of
one lemon. This, with vegetables
and fruits in the diet, has corrected
the abnormal condition.
“Prof. Harrold says, “With from
six to eight glasses of water a day,
the body can normally carry on these
functions, as well as regulate body
temperature, supply the blood and
tissue needs, and contribute a big
requirement for health. If your
body is getting less than this, it is
working under a strain, and some
part of it will probably have to suf
fer for it in later years.”
THOUSANDS SEE BARREL
RIDER SAVED AT NIAGARA
Buffalo, N. Y.—William “Red”
Hill, veteran riverman, went for a
ride down the Niagara Falls rapids
in a barrel Monday.
Hill, aided by his son, was towed
out into the river into the quiet
water underneath the falls, clapped
the lid on his barrel and took off.
The barrel rolled along in fine
shape as 50,000 people who lined
the banks cheered. He negotiated
the dangerous whirlpool successful
ly, and then the strange conveyance
struck in the whirlpool rapids for a
couple of hours.
Hill succeeded in loosening the
cover to the barrel and stuck his
head out to shout at spectators to
bring him a rowboat. His son, Wil
liam Hill, Jr., dared the rapids in a
rowboat and rescued his father. The
daring riverman sustained severe
bruises from the buffeting he re
ceived in the barrel, but the extent
of his injuries was not disclosed.
HORNED RATTLER.
RARE SPECIE OF
SNAKE, CAPTURED
A horned rattlesnake, a rare spe
cies of snake, was brought to The
News office Saturday by E. E.
Standridge, of route 1, Clermont.
Tho rattler has one horn nearly an
inch in length, sticking from the
middle of its flat head. A close ex
amination of the horn could not bo
made as the snake was alive, but it
is believed that the horn is of bone.
The snake measures four feet
long and has six rattles with which
it plays a merry tune when disturb
ed. It was captured by Mr. Stan
dridge last October and hibernated
by him through the winter. It was
discovered by his boys, Talmer and
Ben, on Long Mountain, just across
the county line from Hall, in White
county. At the time it was found it
was going in the ground for the
winter and was dug out by Mr.
Standridge.
It was plnced in a wooden box,
provided with a small pipe to admit
air, and was buried, hibernating the
snake thru the winter. He recently
dug the snake and box out none the
worse.
An odd thing is that the snake has
not eaten since captured but drinks
nearly a gill of water a day, states
Mr. Standridge.
There are plenty of rattlesnakes
on Long mountain, states Mr. Stand
ridge, but this is the first horned
snake we have ever seen.—Gaines

THEM WAS THE GOOD OLD
DAYS
The literature of the New Year
abounds with interesting view3 and
comments of the “O tempora, O,
Mores” variety, which find their way
out through the mails in letters, cir
culars, brochures, etc., type-written,
multigraphed or printed. Now and
then the author strikes a whimsical
note in his philosophy and evolves
a real gem, as witness the following
sent out to its clients by the Brom
well Wire Goods Company, of Cin
cinnati.
About forty years ago eggs were
8 cents a dozen, butter 10 cents a
pound, and milk 5 cents a quart.
The butcher gave away liver and
treated the kids with bologna, while
the “hired girl” received two dollars
a week and did the washing.
Women concealed their ankles and
did not powder or paint (in public),
■ moke, vote or play poker. Men wore
whiskers and boots, chewed tobacco
and cussed. Beer was 5 cents for a
schooner, and free lunch was plenti
ful.
The hat check graft was unknown,
and we worked ten hours a day and
liked it. A kerosene hanging lamp,
a stereoscope and a parlor picture
album were luxuries. No one was
ever operated on for appendicitis, or
had his face “lifted.” We thought
that “mike-robes” lived only in
Ireland, and parasites (if any) came
from Paris. Folks lived to a ripe
age, and the undertaker was not re
ferred to as a “mortician.” Our
salesmen called on the “trade in
cutaway coats and silk hats.”
Today everybody rides in motors,
or flies; shoots craps, goes bridge
crazy; listens to the chain programs
over the radio; goes to the ‘talkies ;
smokes cigarettes; drinks every
thing and anything; blames the stock
market for the high cost of living
and hard times; while no one goes
to bed the same day he gets up. We
think we are having a whale of a
time.
These are the days of bottlegging,
high taxes, crime, speed and neuras
thenia. —Exchange.
$1,617.66 IN CASH FOUND BY
DEAD BRICKLAYER
Athens, Ga.—The body of Milligan
King, Madison county bricklayer,
was found later yesterday in the
woods near Madison Springs by
children who were playing. Scatter
ed about the body was $1,617.66 in
cash.
Funeral services for King, who of
ficials said had apparently been
dead about two weeks, were held to
day at Jones chapel in Madison
county. But no relatives could be
located to whom to turn over the
money which authorities believed
represented King’s life savings. The
money was placed on deposit with
the coroner pending developments.
