A popular misconception is shattered as Food.” The world has thought that fish, beyond everything else, was valuable for the norishment of the brain. since it contains much phospho- rus. This notion uncommonly large“ proportions of phos- phorus is now pronounced a delusion: The government experts have deter- mined that the percentage of phos- phorus in specimens of fish analyzed by them is not greater than is found in the flesh of other animals used for food. While fiSh is deficient in materi- als which yield heat and muscular power to the human body, when it is supplemented by bread, potatoes or other vegetables, it supplies a diet ~ which will meet all the demands of the body. As a food it is particularly de- sirable for persons of sedentary halbi-ts. It fills two distinct places in dietetic economy: (1) It furnishes a cheap source of nitrogenous nutrients, and (2) it supplies the demand for variety in the diet which increases with the advance of civilization. The value of fish taken from American waters every year is over $47,000,000. Most of this is consumed at home, though a vast Export trade in canned fish, lobsters and oysters is being opened up. Shad Is one of the few dishes that should be eaten during the spawning season. The way in which the fish'is killed nflects the market value. , Fish caught by the gills and allowed to die in the water, or those landed alive and allow- are inferior food. The fish should be killed immediately after it is caught; it will then remain firm and stand shipment well. That the average nu- trition of fish is lower than that of meat foods is shown by figures. For instance, a side of mutton is said to contain 37 per cent. of nutrients, while ' medium fat beef contains 33 per Cent. and turkey 34 per cent. There are few fresh fish that yield as high as 20 per cent. of nutrients. The general aver- age of fresh fish is 14 per cent. Cali- fornia salmon contains 34 per cent; shad roe, 28 per cent; Spanish mack- erel, 24 per cent. and Maine salmon, 25 per cent. Fish and lean beef are about equally digestible. The leaner kind of fish, such as cod, haddock, perch, pike and blueiish, are more eas- ily and completely digested than the fatter kinds, such as salmon. shad and mackerel. A TRESLESS REGION. Curses That Follow the Denudation of ‘ Forest Lands. Any one who has traveled through the comparatively treeless countries around the Mediterranean, such as Spain, Sicily, Greece, northern Africa and large portions of Italy, must fer- vently pray that our own country may be preserved from so dismal a' fate. It is not the loss of the forests only that is to be dreaded, but the loss of agricultural regions now fertile and populous, which may be desolated by hills and mountains, bringing With them vast quantities of sand and gravel to be spread over the lowlands. Traveling a few years ago through Tunisie, the writer came suddenly up- on a fine Roman bridge of stone over a wide, bare, dry river bed. It stood some thirty feet above the'bed of the river, and had once served the needs of a prosperous. populatidn. Marvel- ing at the height of the‘brldge'above the ground, I asked the French sta- tion master if the river ever rose to the the bridge. His answer testified to the flooding capacity of. the river and to the strength of the bridge. He said, “I have been here four years, and three times I have seen the river run- . ning over the parapets of that bridge.‘ That country was once one of the rich- est granaries of the Roman empire. It now yields scarcely support for a sparse and semi-barbarous population. l The whole round about is treeless. The care of the national forests is a provision for future generations, for the permanence over vast areas of our country of the great industries of agri- culture and mining upon which the prosperity of the country ultimately depends. A good foresr administra- tion‘should be organizedin the inter: ,ests of the whole country, no matter what it cost—Atlantic Monthly. No Profanity In J upon. Americans boast a little over what they have. There is one country in the world that has a good right to re- joice over what it has not. ' form of evil. Its authorities never have to put down profane swearing. -— There is, says the Evangelist, no oath in the Japanese language—no word" [ that is equivalent to an oath. Not only i is there no native word in which pro- ]‘fanity may take refuge, but there is : no imported word. 4 . I ' During the last ten years foreigners luve'added thousands of new words to the language, but not one profane word has been incorporated. In this respect Japan is believed to Stand alone among the nations. Experience of a. Popular Author-ens. Ruth McEnery tells the following amusing story about an experience in New Orleans: . ' ’ She was going to market and a color» ed ,woman carried her basket, follow- ing in the ' customary fashion.

The handkerchief itself generallyis of fine white linen, but it is embroidered in colors. A pretty de- than a silver dollar embroidered in two colors in one corner. Violets, for? get-me-nots, daisies and arbutus, in their natural colors, have first place in these designs. Other pretty hand- kerchiefs have single flowers scattered all over them, or arranged so as to form a broad border inside of the nar- row llem. Handkerchiefs of pale blue, pink, green or lilac linen, checked with a contrasting shade, are consid- ered quite smart with sporting cos- tumes. Conservative people prefer pure white linen, plain or set off with a bit of dainty embroidery or fine lace. A Costly Needlework Kit. In China the ladies of high class use ‘very dainty thimbles. Some are carved from enormous pearls, with bands of fine gold, on which are eu- graved all sorts of fantastic things, the etchings of which serve for catch- ing thencedle, as the holes of the out- side barbarian thilnbles do. The thin.- ble always has a mother of pearl case. With the thimble the Chinese lady has a delicate pair of scissors of the fill- pearl needle case. The articles are all enclosed in an exquisitely inlaid case of the purest mother of pearl. A New York lady, whose husband was ill the China trade, has one of these‘Clli- nese needlework kits. which she val- ues at $2,CI00.—Exchange. a “5;,” c’ ._ .——————-—-— Good for Colds.

Disinfectant. _ Few of us realize how important a part water plays as a disinfectant. It is reallylsuch because it is a powerful absorbent. To flush closets and drains, then, is not only to wash away me- chanical impurities, but to a large ex- tent to destroy chemical poisons. A word to the wise is suiliclent.
