In some parts of this country, the heat of the day often continues far into the night. Sleep under such circum stances Is likely to be extremely difficult. Here is a simple hut valuable suggestion for wooing slumber under such circumstances: Wet a sheet with cold water, wring it out as dry as you can, and spread it over your bed. Now’ lie upon the sheet without clothing. If you occasionally change your l>osition, you will find that the cooling influence will really be extraordinary and that sleep will be easily induce 1. The moisture of the sheet, apart from the coolness produced by evaporation is of distinct advantage to the skin, and is inclined to “settle” the. nerves when one is tired out and nervous from the fatigue of an extremely hot day. —Bernarr Macfadden in August Physical Cuiiure.

PLANT FOOD, SAVE FOOD, CAN FOOD. American kitchens waste enough food each year to feed the whole British army in France and several divisions of the French army. It is estimated that the annual food waste in the United States amounts to $700,000,000. This is believed to be a conservative estimate. Therefore, all we need to do to make certain supplying all food required and of winning the war is to cut out that waste. It is entirely possible and feasible to do this. It is only a question of every man. woman, and child in the United States becoming individually thrifty in the use of food. Millions of young American men are preparing to sacrifice their lives, if need be, in the cause of victory. How much more willingly should all who are left at home practice the small sacrifice of using the little extra care necessary to make certain that no food is wasted! The military leaders of our nation and of our allies agree that the outcome of the war ts a matter of food. Thus every little food saving, trivial and unimportant as it may seem, adds to the aggregate of the food supply which can make victory certain. Without thrift at home all the outpouring of blood on foreign battlefields Tnay be in vain. Famine may be the great conqueror and the war may end in a surrender forced by starvation. While hotels and restaurants are heavy offenders in the matter of wasting of food, yet the chief contribution to the $700,000,000 food loss is made in the kitchens of private homes. Good food is improperly handled and stored. It is carelessly cooked. It is wastefully prepared. It is overgenerously provided. These are the chief causes of home food waste. Extravagant cooks must learn how to use left-overs. Leftover cereals can be combined with meats, fruits, or vegetables to make appetizing

side dishes. Even a spoonful of cereal is worth saving as a thickener for soup or gravy. Don't throw away stale bread, skim milk, sour milk, scraps of meat or fish, trimmed fats or suet, even the water used for cooking rice and many vegetables should be kept. Stale bread can be used in many ways, skim milk contains all the nourishing qualities of milk except fat. sou>«niilk can be used in baking: meat and fish scraps add flavor and nourishment to made-over dishes; fat can be tried out and used as a substitute for butter and lard in cooking; while cooking water will help to flavor soups and sauces. :—o CULVER HORSE TROOP.

An appeal for Victrola records was made some time ago ami the company now has the overwhelming sum of three records, to use on their new machine. The Victrola was delivered to the boys today and without records it will be useless, if you have any to give to the boys you can leave them at the Holthouse Drug Co. Some old records that you are tired of will be gladly welcomed by the boys'; Several of the boys were out yesterday getting contributions to a fund, with which to buy balls, bats, gloves and other baseball paraphernalia.

Fred Elzey and Dallas Brown risked the terrors of the dark and stayed all night last night in one of the tents at Camp Niblick. Each night two boys will sleep at the camp to watch the belongings of the officers and men. Some iron pipe and other material combined with the ingenuity of Privates Haag and Johnson, served to construct a drinking fountain for the "Sammies'' this morning at Camp Niblick. The sanitary fountain will save the boys many steps for a cooling drink after a drill or hike.

Owing to the shower that came up this morning the usual hike was foregone, and a longer drill was given on Tenth street. The first school for soldiers was held this morning on the lawn of the West Ward school after the drill. Lieutenant Peterson read the men the military law. An impromptu wrestling match was staged on the court house lawn this afternoon. which attracted a great deal of attention. Remember the Company A benefit dance at the Masonic hall tonight at 8:30.

The closing of the treasury. White House, State, War and Navy and all other public buildings to visitors has shorn the sightseeing kings of about half their star program. Their garishly varnished truck with open coach bodies atop them, which lumber up and down the streets of Washington by the dozen, no longer stop while their passengers are shown the internal wonders and mysteries of America’s legislative and executive halls. There’s too good a chance' that German spies might be among the gawkers. KEEPING YOUR STOMACH HEALTHY. If people will eat good wholesome food, simply and thoroughly prepared. will eat because they require food and not because it tastes good, will eat at regular times and take plenty of exercise —they will cease to be ' conscious that they have a digestive tract, and digestive troubles will decrease ninety per cent. Foods and drinks should never be taken freezing cold or scalding hot, in fact, extremes of all kinds are the result of the customs and conveniences of the times we live in, and not of natural selection. However embarrassing it may be, the fact remains that our digestive canals still hold pretty closely to the customs of their prehistoric cave dwelling ancestors, and refuse to be rushed (into these twentieth century environments without a protest: consequently wc hear more and more of digestive disorders and so-called liver troubles. The complaints that are constantly being laid at the doors of our unsuspecting anil unoffending ,i livers, are enough to make any organ, but a most generous apd forgiving one. really**get put of order and show what 11 cpuld dp.
