There is no man in this state whose name has been taken off the sucker list by mail order houses that have a practice of sending out unordered merchandise. Not long ago this gentleman, a doctor by profession, received a box of neckties with a letter telling him to keep the ties and remit a dollar or return the package. Instead of following the instructions the doctor sat down and sent the house a few pills, enclosing them in a letter telling the receiver that they were recommended for “gall.” He also told them that the value of the pills was two dollars, and he would give them credit for same on the necktie bill and they would need only to remit , one dollar. He was requested to return the ties. The doctor then replied and told the writer that it was a half block to the nearest mail box and that he always charged $2.50 for leaving the office, so if the writer would send that amount he would mail the ties back to them. The correspondence was closed when the sender of the ties wrote and told the doctor that he had taken his name off their list.

Department, suggests the following as a good method of preparing and baking ham. whether it is to be served hot or cold: Select 9to 10 pound ham and scrub it thoroughly. If it is very salty, soak it overnight. Allow at least one quart of boiling Water to each pound of ham or enough to completely cover it. Place it in the hot/water and, for this sized ham, add one carrot sliced, two stalks of celery, one teaspoon of celery salt, three sprigs parsley, one onion sliced, two or three bay leaves, and onehalf cup strong vinegar. Cover, and then simmer for four or five hours, counting the time from the beginning of the simmering period. Twenty-five minutes to the pound will be approximately right. Test by using a skewer, or a fork with long tines. Turn the ham so it will cook evenly on both sides. Add more hot water as the liquor evaporates. The ham should be covered with water during the entire cooking period. After it is tender, let it stand over night in the liquor or if you wish to serve it hot, re move the skin at once, wait until the surface of the ham is cool, then cover with the following mixture: 3 cups brown sugar, 3 cups fine, soft bread crumbs, A teaspoon mustard, cider or vinegar moisten. Mix these ingredients, and spread over the top of the ham until entirely cover/ ed. Press long-stemmed .whole cloves into the coated fat, at intervals. These help to hold on the paste, and also to season the fat. Place the ham in a hot oven to form a crust quickly, then reduce the temperature and baste frequently with a mixture of ham liquor and cider or vinegar, until the ham is evenly browned.

MARRIAGES AND DIVORCES For every five marriages in Indiana last year there was one divorce. A tabulation of marriage and divorce statistics for 1926 by the Department of Commerce, made public today, showed these facts for Indiana: There were 40,409 marriages. The number of divorces was 7,685. There were 12.9 marriages for each 1 000 of population and 2.46 divorces. The ratio of both marriages and divorces to population was higher in Indiana than the average for the United States. Despite the ratio of one in five as between divorces and marriages, the 1926 statistics showed a more favorable situation for Hoosier matrimonial felicity than did those for 1925. In that year there were only 222 fewer divorces, but nearly 4,000 fewer marriages.

WORKING WOMEN The National Bureau of Economic Research has produced some interesting records regarding the eight millions of working women in this country. The largest group is composed of nearly one-fourth the whole numlxr, in domestic and personal service. The second largest group is in manufacturing and mechanical industries. The third group is clerks and agriculture ranks fourth.' Professional workers compose the fifth group. In Washington, D. C. nearly 50 per cent of its women are workers. New England also show’s 42 of every 100 women at work, against an average for the country at large of 21 of every 100. It is found that 1500 women work in coal mines and 78 in stone quarries. More than half the working women have passed the 25-year mark, and more than a million working women are between 45 and 65 years of age. Two hundred thousand are beyond 65 years. Agriculture claims the largest number of

girls under 16 years, but after that age they go to the factories or as clerks. Almost seveneighths of all working women are white and native born. The average weekly wage for women in ten states in 1920 ranged from SB.BO a week in Alabama to $16.85 in Rhode Island. Before the World War the average women's wage was $7.84. In 1926 this moved up to $17.35. The only occupation where women have been found to receive a higher wage than men for equal service was that of mail clerks. o FAMOUS CHEESES Roquefort cheese is made from the milk of sheep. Gorgonzola, another highly flavored cheese, is made from cow’s milk. o In Japan individual citrus trees are known which, according to records, are at least 300 years old and have changed little in that time. , —o Hex Grange Chicken Supper November 22. 29-11
