A survey of food costs recentlycompleted by the Bureau ot Home Econointcs of’the t'. S. Brparrtßeni of .Agriculture shows that Ja family of four adults can purchase a week s supply-of food: as outlined in "The Family’s Food at Low Cost.’’ for an average flgyre off 5.34. This is a little more than a dollar more than the figur* obtained for -the same family group in January in the same cities. But it does 'not indicate a. rise in costs for in th**' 1 current study the larger amount of food, as listed in the allowance per w\eek in the bureau's food guide, was used in t-he calculation. The load guide lists: a range in., the. amount... Os food of. from 2 to 5 pounds a week to | allow for the different methods. of cooking and uses of food to which •different would naturally put them. The January figure was arrived at by -.using the minimum suantity, and the-present . one was derived from considering The maximum one.'Tbe- combinations and. proportions nf tnod, in -the list for which the average price was obtained, will give good nutrition, returns for a limited outlay 'Of-money, the bureau says. Families that'’may need to njake drastic reductions in their fOfftfDudget, could safely live by this .food guide, the bureau declraes, but there must be great discretion if any reduction is made in the ■ suggested amounts of milk, vegetables and lean.

meat. . The food needs for one week tor,a family of four adults, and also several other family groups, appear in considerable detail in the bureau’s publication, The Family’s FOod at Low Cost. The allowance-of breadfor adults is from 20 to 25 pounds a week; flour, 4 lbs.,; cereal,, 4-7 lbs.; whole milk, fresh or canned. 4-14 lbs.; potatoes, 15 to 20 lbs.; legumes,' 1-3 lbs,; tomatoes, fresh, or .'canned, or oranges, 6 lbs.;, other vegetables, fresh, or canned, including some of green or yellow color, and inexpensive, fruit,'fresh, canned or dried, 20-25 lbs.;, rajs, 4 lhs,;• sugar, including some unrefined cane molasses, 5 lbs. and lean meat, lively fish, cheese, eggs. 5-10 1b5.... The prices were’ gathered, as they were in January, at, 'inexpensive or average s-tores, rath®! than the more expensive sources. New York City topped the list with $9.03 and Los Angeles-was the lowest with a cost of $7.81.

Following" are other xitips* and the figures for • filling the market basket outlined: St. Louis, $7.98; KansasTyiF. $8.08; ... Detroit, $8.15; Dallas. $8.21; Pittsburgh, $8.22; New •■Orleans, $8.2’3; ‘ Washington, D. C„ $8.36; 'Charlotte, N. C., $8.46; At-. lanta.. $8.94; Philadelphia, $8.99. 1 The '.same articles were Chosen, in each'food group in every city and since- vegetables and fruits are relatively cheaper,throughout the South, cities there showed a lower figure than in the North; with' the .exception of. Charlotte and Atlanta. Inexpensive meat cost? are largely responsible lor Chicago and St. Louis’ placing near ; tije .bottom of the list. Low* coA' meals for hot days are a little bit more difficult to plan for and achieve'than cooked ones the bureau says. ' Delectable cold concoctions usually cost more than plain and simply prepared cooked meals. The low cost tood guide has only a small weekly allowance of meat which- is often the basis lor the " cold meal. Cooking meat with potatoes or cereal extends its fiavor-so much more .than if it is eaten by itself. But today’s menu Uses cold sliced picnic shoulder, as the mainstay of the dinner, which is not entirely given over to cold food.-

If the shoulder is prepared the day before. -rahhage cdiild he rooked with it lor ihe latter part of the cooking period and- served a* -on# of tha-hoil vegetables for (that day. l J icnle| shouldi rs, like many cuts of beef and pork, are cheaper right now than theyvhave been in yedrs, and ihey hate Jhe advantage in being the least expensive meat tor cutting cold. I'Olato salad makes an excellent accojnpanlent for the shoulder. It is an old favorite and" has the addition-1 :al recommendation that it doesn’t cost much'to make. A hot green vegetable is quite appropriate for the cold meal. Wilted lettuce was chosen since the new loose leaf lettuce .can usually be found now in the markets at very attractive prices. A Family of Three Including two adults and one child should buy every week: Bread, 10 ■ 15 lbs. Flour, 1 - 2 lbs. ' 'C“real. 3- 4 lbs. .

TheWroT*' Lady By RICHARD ROE

(CopVrlsht) V, ./ THE smooth road stretched out like black ribbon. There was scarcely any traffic—little by little the pointer crept around on the speedometer— Margaret felt as If she were flying. Suddenly two blinding lights came toward her and she turned out a little —a crash that sounded like the end of the world —the Instinctive jamming on of brakes —a reeling ride in the field—and then the smart coupe turned over with a crash of glass. ■“Are you hurt?” asked a whitefaced j-oung, man. “I don’t think so,” she said shakily; "whht hit ,me?”, “You hit me,” he. replied grimly, “or at least my roadster, and if 1 hadn’t Jumped you would have killed -Be —As' it 4s I,bet you’ve done five hundred dollars worth of damages on the car.” . “Oh, really? Well, look at mine!” she retorted hotly. “You didn't have any lights or 1 wouldn’t have run into you.” ”1 did tinve a light and you were going entirely too fast. A ear of that make never should Ike, driven as you 'wyere' driving—it isn’t buift for it.” • That was too much. * To smash her car and then defame it —her lovely new pale gray coupe that had beeD driven but once. Margaret's voice rose. "You lut'd no lights, and* ! am going to have you arrested Where’s a policeman ?”

An obliging boy who loved a rumpus went off to find one and Margaret put in the interval investigating the wounds of the .coupe. Finally a wrecker came'up and hoisted the battered car out of the mud and departed with it forlornly trailing behind. The bored justice of the peace holding traffic court brisked up when he saw Margaret, pretty, well-dressed and impressive. “What’s the charge?” he asked solicitously. “Parked without lights,” said the policeman wearily. The justice looked shocked. “What "have you to say?” he demanded sternly of the young man. “I had lights,” he replied indignantly, ‘'until she banged into roe and put ’em out.” The justice,-* young an 4 personable man, looked at Margaret, prettier than ever in a rage. “It is not true,” she said. She .. said more—considerably more —but presently she became aware that the justice seemed to be looking rather than listening. He roused himself from pleasant thought and turned to the young man. “Fined ten” dollars for being parked without lights,” he said. The young man paid under bitter protest but the victory was all Margaret’s. John Anderson left court with vengeance in his heart. Tomorrow he would start suit against that hateful girl and punish her insurance company if he could not punish her. •

From the address she had given In court he knew that he passed her house on his way to business and his wrath blazed" up afresh as he went by next morning. After he had passed he recalled that there had been a car outside the house, and with a little Jar It came to him that it was the tar miliar car ot a doctor. . At night when he went home the same car was there, and somehow his anger seemed to be evaporating. When he got home he telephoned hjs lawyer to do nothing about'the suit until he heard from him. ' The nhwt morning the doctor was coming out of the house and John Anderson hurried up to catch him. The doctor was In a hurry and when he saw the young man’s inquiring expression he replied to It. “Pretty had today. A shock is a serious matter with a heart like Miss Willis’.” And he plunged Into car, . leaving a young man whose own heart suddenly felt as If it had something wrong with It. . £•' “A shock,” he reflected, “a bad heart —my gosh', the girl may die, and I’ll feel like a murderer!" He sent flowers on his way home and the next day got his secretary to telephone an inquiry. The report was dubious and he rushed off to order flowers again? That was surely a bad week for John Anderson.

Margaret Willis had a trying week, 100, and at the end of It when the doctor said everything was safe and the patient well on the road to recovery, she decided to take a walk, "Auntie, dear, I won’t be gone long, but .promise .me that you won’t fall down stairs again while with a gentle kiss she ran downstairs and out into the street which seemed beautiful after her confinement In her aunt’s .bedroom. The trees had leafed out, tulips ■were In bloom. It was a gay, fresh May morning. A young man game toward Margaret with his eyes bulging out of his head. His face was one great great smile as he grasped her reluctant hand. “Why, you’re well again,” he snld, “and you look as strong nh ever—l never was so happy In my life —If you had died I would have smashed the d—d car with an ax—the lights were really very dim because the battery was low.” -1 Comprehension dawned on Margaret and she pulled'away her hand. 'There weren’t nny lights at all or I shouldn't lime bumped Into you,” she 'said. Well, they were both persons who mnde up,their minds qul<*kly, so six months later they were ti.btlng over where they would go to spend their honeymoon.

BEST DOC IN WORLD

HI

Dr. Jacob Furtli of the Henry Phipps institute at the ’Pennsylvania is declared to be the best all-around doctor in the world. He was awarded that title, and the gold medal that goes with it, by fellow doctors at the eightysecond annual ’convention of the American Medical association in Philadelphia.

DO NOT SEEK SHELTER UNDER OAK-DURING STORM Kent, 0., July 2—To seek shelter under an oak tree during a* thunder storm is almost as tjangeroiis as to search for gasoline with a lighted match. Os all trees, the oak is most susceptible to lightning. So says a bulletin' issued by the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, which has been studying' the phenomena of in relation • jo trees. If you must get under a tree, says the. Davey Institute, find a beech, for it is rarely ever the victim of lightning. The ratio of the oak to the beech in being struck by ■an electrical bolt isviO to 1, according to observations made over a period of years. The roo'ta of a tree tap the electrical field of the ground. When storm cloud is overhead the positive electricity in it is attracted by the negative electricity in the - earth, . and lightning follows. —. Trees, such as the oak, which have a large root area naturally have larger electrical fields than others. Oaks have “tap” roots, which go far into the ground and bring UP large quantities of water to the tree, which serves as another attraction for electrical bolts. The best advice of the Davey Institute is to avoid trees altogether when lightning is at work, as it would be somewhat difKcult for the layman to make a scientific selection in time of emergency. Better.to keep in the open spaces, if no house is near, and get thoroughly wet than to offer yourself as a target for lightning. new hotel to be OPENED AT DUNES PARK

Indianapolis, July 2. —The .second week in July will see the opening of a unique hotel of fifty-two rooms in Dunes State Park which, witfi the small Inn that has been in operation -since the conservation department took oyer this park, will provide lodging accommodations for 150 more people. , The new resort -hostelry is unique in design and construction. It is composed of steel and’ stucco and is tfireproor. There will be two floors and a- center corridor which insures splendid ventilation to all roonft. Eqch room is 9 1-2 by 12 feet,* has running water and equipped at the present with individual ggs radiators," for the copl evenings make heat often necessary. ‘ Provision is made for the later instalation of a central heating plant. Cost of the building, according to Richard Lieber, conservation department director, is $60,000. The hotel is to the west of the pavilion and faces the lake. It is reached over a concrete highway ASS feet wide recently completed by the state highway —commission. Last year ther... conservation commission enlarged the concrete parkwa'X’ at the beach which now accommodates nearly 1,000 automobiles. The hotel will bet, under direction of Joseph Strack, formerly assistant ntanager of the Claypool Hotel, this city., who also has the concession tor the pavilion. „

WESTERN UNION TO SELL EXPRESS MONEY ORDERS H. E. McCandless, local manager of the Western Union Telegraph company announces that American Express money orders are now on sale at all branch offices of the company. This is done to meet the demand for money orders to be sent other than by telegraph. Last December the company began this service In a number of cities In the east and proved so satisfactory that now it is being adopted by the entire system. This will In no ways affect the regular telegraphic money and gift order service which had been carried on by the-Western Union.
