Mushrooms' Value. Just what is the food value of mushrooms has long been a question; some enthusiasts calll the mushroom the poor man’s beef, and a French physician found that he could live several days without losing weight on two thirds of a pound of mushrooms a day. . But & recent analysis made in Sweden shows that fresh mushrooms contain 91 per cent. of water and only 488 per. cent. of nutriment, wkere beef has 21 per cent. Prof. Marner of Upsala, who made the analysis, says that a pound of beef is worth eight of mushrooms. ‘On the other hand the latter contalps a small amount of saccharine matter that is in the nature of a stimulant. : It is not likely, however, that this will lower the price of this table delicacy, and lovers of the fungus will seek it with as much energy as if it bad double the food value of beef. ‘ The Worst of It. ! © “My footman left me without any warning.” t “Mine left me without any spoons.”

| Country Babies. Edward T. Devine says in the Sur: vey that the country-bred child has a ‘decided advantage over the city-bred infant. . /‘ " “The infant mortality in the registration citles of the United States in 1900 was riearly fifty per cent. higher than in the rural part of the registration states. But going to England again, we find an interesting bit of evidence in behalf of the city. Comparing London and certain rural countries it appears that while the baby born in London is more likely to die before it reaches its first - birthday than the baby born in the country, it has just as good a chance fo complete the first month of life, and actually a better chance to live through the first weéek. In other words, the disadvantage of the city does not begin to operate until after the tirst month, while in the first week there is a distinct advantage, on account of the prompter and better medical care available for all grades of income.” Many a man is so anxious o do his best that he will do his best friend
