WASHING DISHES IS
UNLUCKYFOR GIRL
Pasadena, Cal., May 1.— Miss
BelleSams, of this city, was tin*
victim oJ a peculiar series of ac
cidents today, ail occurring with
in the space of a couple of sec
onds.
While) washing dishes. Miss
Sams dropped a soup tureen on
her fool, breaking one of Ihe
bone*.
She pul out an arm to save her
self from falling and struck Ihe
edge of the kitchen sink so vio
lently that I tie arm was broken.
Collapsing in a faint, the young
woman fell to the floor in such
manner that one of her legs was
twisted under her and broken.
Not Only As Good But Better.
To say of oleomargarine that,
as a food, it equals butler, being
composed of substances practi
cally Ihe same, though from a
different source, is lo mention I
only one of the reasons why the
restriction by a heavy tax of its
use in the one largely salablq
form is utterly without justifica
tion. As a matter of fact, not
only does oleomargarine supply
at half the cost a nutritive equiv
alent of the best butler, but, ow
ing to the method of its manu
facture from meat and vegetable
oils, it is better because safer
frofti the hygienic standpoint
than is the far greater .part of
real butler found in the markets.
A recent iuvifsl igal ion of
creameries by the Department of
| Agriculture has revealed that
| though almost everywhere, nowa
days, at least a little care is ex
orcised lo prevent the sale of mi—
healthful milk, no such super
vision is made, of butter as re
gards, its origin. Of over 5,000
I lot's of cream examined. 00 per
|cent wore found to be unclean,
decomposed or sour, and much of
it was entirely unfit for food.
Only -7 per cent of the cream
ctdes practiced pasteurization.
|and only 0 per cent of them met
all I tie requirements of reason
aide sanitation.
; Tlie New York Medical Journal,
in comment mg on these facts,
j says t hat butter made from cream
: impure, decomposed or infected
with pathogenic germs is a dan
gerous menace to health, and
While the infant population is
i not much affected, .tile possibili
ties of harm to adults is great.
| The dairymen defend the high
j taxing of oleomargarine by say
ing that th(‘ uncolored is just as
{good, does not compote unfairly
with their product, and I hose who
lbuy it pay a duty so small that its
j removal would not help llic eoii
j sinner at all. All that is true,
jin a way. Iml people simply will
I not liny either real or artificial
■butter unless it is yellow, and the
dairymen themselves make only a
little Initter that is not colored
with the same harmless dye that
Would make vast ipianlities of
oleomargarine a cheap and ac
ceptable substitute.
As for the “unfairness” of the
rivalry which would result from
taking off the lax, that i> a mere
matter of pocket opinion, and it is
not appreciable outside of dairy
ing circles.

WHIMSICAL WOMEN
TRIAL TO EVERYONE
i . _’_
'The whimsical woman is a trial
lo everyone—even those who love
her mo^st. To her husband she
at last represents a mindless hu
man being who must be humored.
To discuss, plans with her would
be worse than useless, for her
disordered point of view «*nni
municates iiself and muddles up
the clear thought of others.
As she gels on in years she
loses the respect and the trust of
her friends, for they know her af
fections and feelings to he as the
shifting sands.
One moment sways her this
way and the next brings rear
lion. She never thinks to wait
nnlil a mood pauses. She does
not mean to be untrue, disloyal,
or lightminded, but. she actually
becomes all these in time.
if you have even symptoms of
this vice make up your mind right,
here to correct it. Hat He with
your impulse even when it seems
to he all for good. Think it out

is one’ of those uncontrollable
ones.
Look hack a bit and see how
many times you took decisive ac
tion in matters that would have
adjusted themselves if you had
but waited patiently. And maybe
you would have kept a friend. Or
at least not made an enemy.
When you And one of those
tempestuous moods coming over,
just wait and take life quiet for

two the importance of certain af
fairs will simmer down.
