They are thus, like milk, one of the few com- plete foods, and should be a standard item in the housewife's dietary pla; Since the nutrition of eggs is highly concentrated, it {is desirable and economical to use them in combina- tion with foods rich in starch, as bread and potatoes, in order to give the stomach bulk to work upon. Eggs are seventy-three and five- tenths per cent water, one per cent mineral matter, ten and six-tenths per cent fat, tenths per cent protein in its purest form, very digestible and nutritions. This altumen coag- ulates or hardens at a high tempera- ture and thus makes trouble for the digestive juices. It is very impor- tant, especially for young children and sick reopleMto cook the egg so that the albumen is not thus tough- ened. Even for normal people the ite of egg cooked hard can be digested onmly if it is very carefully chewed. Egg yolks are rich both In protein and fat and are of special mineral value. A pound of egg is as good nutri- ment a8 a pound of beef. Eggs should be used as substitutes for meat rather than served with it at the same meal. Thus egg puddings suffles and omelets should be used at meals where no meut is served. (Copyright, 1021.) ITTLE STORIES BfibéhfiE Blacky the Crow Makes a Call. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. Judge no one by bis atyle of dmss; Your iguorance you thus confess. —DBiacky the Crow. “Caw. caw, caw, caw!” There was no need of looking to see who that was. Peter Rabblt knew without looking. Mrs. Quack knew ‘without looking. Just the same, both looked up. Just alighting in the top of a |tall tree was Blacky the Crow. “Caw, jcaw, caw, caw!” he repeated, looking 1down at Peter and Mrs. Quack and | Mr. Quack and the six young Quacks. '”l hope I am not Interrupting any secret gossip.” “Not at all,” Peter hastened to say. “Mrs. Quack was just telling me of the troubles and dangers {n bringing up a young family In the Far North. How did you know the Quacks had jarrived?” i Blacky chuckled hoarsely. “I didn't, lmhl he. “I simply thought there {might be something going on 1 didn't ! know about over here, so I came over {here to find out. Mr. Quack, you and { Mra. Quack are looking very fine. And those handsome. young Quacks, you 1 don't mean to teil me that they are “I HOPE I'M NOT INTERRUPTING ANY SECRET GOSSIP.” your children!” Mrs. Quack nodded proudly. “They are.” said she. “You don’t say 8o Blacky, as if he were very much su prised, when all the time he wasn't surprised at all. “They are a credit !to their parents. Yes, indeed, they are .a credit to their parents. Never have i1 seen finer young Ducks in all ny ilife. How glad the hunters with ter- | rible guns will be to see them!” | Mrs. Quack shivered at that and |Blacky saw it. He chuckled softly. You know he dearly loves to make others uncomfortable. *“I saw three hunters over on the edge of the Big filver early this very morning,” sald & ? Mrs. Quack looked more anxious {than ever. Blacky's sharp eyes noted this. “That is why I came over here/’ he added, kindly. “I wanted to give you warning.” “But you didn'®know the Quacks were here!” spoke up Peter. | “True enough, Peter. True enough, sreplied Blacky, his eyes twinklin, ; “But 1 thought they might be. I had heard a rumor that those who go south are traveling earlier than usual this fall, so I knew I might find Mr. and Mrs. Quack over here any time now. Is It true, Mrs. Quack, that we are ml;g to have a long, hard, cold win- ter?” “That ‘{s whaet they say up in the Far North,” replied Mrs. Quack. “And it is true that Jack Frost has started down earlier usual. That is how it -happens we ~are here now. But .about those hunters over by the Big ‘River; do you suppose they will come over here?’ There was an anxious note in Mrs. Quack’s voice.” “No,* replied Blacky promptly. “Farmer Brown's boy won't let them. I know. I've been watching him and he has been watching those hunters. As long as you stay here you will be safe. ‘What a great world this woul be if all thos¢ two-legged creaturei Farmer Brown’s boy.” cried Peter. Then he added. “I wish they were. “You don’t wish it half as much as I do,” declared Mrs. Quack. “Yet 1 can remember when he used to hunt with a terrible gun and was as bad as the worst of them,” said Blacky. “What changed him?’ asked Mrs. Quack, looking interested. “Just getting really acquainted with some of the little people of the Green Forest and the Green Mead- ows,” replied Blacky. “He found them dy to meet him more than half way in friendship, and that some of them really are his it friends. “And now he Is thefr best friend,” Blacky nodded. "Right, Peter,” sald' he. “That js why the Quacks are safe here and will be as long as they stay here.” (Copyright, 1821, by T. W. Burgess.) Baked Cheese Omelet.

It was a game after. John's own whimsical heart, the old-time mischief was dancing in his eyes. “If you have no pride of your own,” Cecily raged, “think what your father will say when he comes home—think! Do you suppose for an instant that Rich’ Slocum is going_to stand for & braim storm like this?* . The hammock stopped swaying. John caught Merriam to him with a mighty hug. “Great Scott! Your nonsense put my news comp'etely out of my use for a head! - 1'm going to grow a full beard and some sldeburns next week, the ‘tache brought down a twenty-five- dollar raise from the firm.” Silence on -the porch! Merriam’s throat contracted sharply. She saw herself a week before in Rich’ Slo- cum's roadster and seemed to hear his drawling: “If I did see he got a raise would you be a little nicer to me?” “I'm not cold,” she chattered, "I just s-shivered.” “At least you can afford to give up this awful food shop, now——" Cecily’s voice cut in on her revery. ‘The fun was over. 1 “Cec’, dear,” Merry's tones sounded half strangled. “This shop 1s on'y | We're going back to our own house tomorrow | morning.
