'Sanitized' Mattress Fresh, Clean, Hygienic
/When a mattress has been "sanitized" it becomes germ resistant and odor repellent—two most desirable qualities. The new mattress you buy may be clean and hygienic When' purchased, but you can readily understand^that the ordinary (unganitized) mattress will not necessarily remain truly sanitary for long when in use in the home.
There are germs in the , air. Geirms picked up in handling. Germs from sleepers' bodies; All these ca,n, get into the ticking of the- ordinary mattress and there .they thrive. The tfery warmth and rhcoisture of a sleeping body provides ideal conditions for bacteria to breed and offensive perspiration odors to develop.'' Although a care-
,fpi housekeeper changes her bed linens frequently, she can't launder
, her mattress, and no matter how thoroughly she brushes and airs it, she doesn't in that way get full protection and peace of mind.
Sanitized ticking definitely inhibits germ growth. Even the tough hard-to-kill staphylococcus aureus (the standard germ organism used in the U. S. government approved tests of antiseptic efficiency) does not breed and multiply in the sanitized ticking.
Sanitized ticking resists formation of offensive body odor. A normal person's perspiration is odorless as i t leaves the body. It is the decomposition of perspiration by bacteria that gives rise to unpleasant odors. By preventing the action of such bacteria, the sanitized mattress Stays fresh, clean-smelling and hygienic.

Vegetable Water Can Be A Vitamin Filled Broth
If you have been listening, as you . most certainly should, to the widespread advice on saving the water in which vegetables are cooked you may be looking for an idea on how to use this vitamin filled broth. .
Say you have.a cupful of essence from cooked carrots, spinach, string beans and potatoes, you may use it to good advantage in a Bisque of Salmon and Oysters.
First, combine .: this vegetable liquor and add enough water tQ make the quantity measure J" pints. Add 3 veal or chicken bouillon cubes and heat, stirring, until these are melted. Then- add 1 tall can of red salmon which you have freed of bone and flak-ed. Let these simmer for 35 or 40 minutes.
Meanwhile, in the top of the double boiler melt 2 tablespoons of butter and blend in" 2 level tablespoons of flour. Add i^lteaspoon of salt, a dash of nutmeg, % teaspooa of Worcestershire sauce, a trace of cayenne and 1 tablespoon of minced parsley and then stir in 1 cup of tpp milk or thin cream and cook this over boiling water, stirring from time to time, for about 15 minutes. Then stir the salmon mixture into it and mix well and after that pour it through a sieve pressing all the substance that will go through with little persuasion from the back of a spoon.
After it "is sieved, reheat it but oh no account let it actually boil again—just get it boiling hot. iAt the last minute add a large tablespoon of butter and 2 dozen oysters that have been heated in their own juice until the edges curl, then drained.
Eagle Club Head Tells of
Boys in fill-Uniforms.
LONDON.—Ten thousand Americans, most of them under 25, are fighting with Britain and her allies, Bobert Hutchinspn, chairman of the American Eagle club, said.
•The Eagle club is a sort of super-canteen for Americans on this side-of the Atlantic and for other forces. It is maintained by private contributions, plus profits_.frbm low prices charged the troops.. . Hutchinson and Mrs. Hutchinson,, known as the father and mother of the Eagle clubs say they knew' hundreds of the volunteers from the United States by name and thousands by .their faces.
"The largest number is with the Canadians," said Hutchinson. "But you find • American boys everywhere."
A number of those in England were caught in German invasions of European countries and finally made their way to London.
"We meet them in the 'Free French' and even in the 'Free Rumanian' forces," said Hutchinson.
"We particularly need a dormitory for these boys,"' Hutchinson said. "We close early and have to turn them out into the blackout."
Hutchinson said many persons had the idea the life of a soldier in this war was comparatively easy.
"I know better," he said. "I have seen them come in here after being bombed out, after operating antiaircraft guns and after working with bomb damage until they are tired, dog tired."
The Eagle club "is the one place in wartime London where an American can buy a hamburger for less than 10 cents and coffee that tastes American.
Cork Native of Spain Cork is the thick, soft, porous
outer bark of the cork oak, which is an evergreen tree of the oak family native 'to'lPortugal.-^Jpain, North Africa and most other countries bordering on. the Mediterranean. The cork of commerce is not the true bark of the cork oak through which the sap circulates, but a layer of spo'ngy, elastic, tough, and impervious cellular tissue that forms outside the true bark. If the true or inner bark of the cork oak is damaged, the tree will die; but the outer layer of cork, which is light because composed-of the walls of dead cells filled with air, may be removed.
Sugar Industry in South Was Born in Old Kettle
BATON ROUGE, LA.—An pld iron' kettle, blackened by the many fires over which it has hung in the past 200 years, rests on the campus of Louisiana State university as a memorial to the man who made Louisiana's sugar industry possible.
Indigo was the money crop when the French planter aristocracy owned plantations that stretched for miles along the bayous and lakes of southern Louisiana at the end of the Eighteenth century. Jean Etienne de Bore was no exception.
De Bore was born in the Illinois section of the Louisiana Purchase territory. At the age of four he wasf taken to France by his parents where he received his education and later married into large colonial holdings.
He returned to New Orleans with his wife about the time of the French revolution and established his plantation on what now is a part of Audubon park near the city limits.
There'he engaged in the planting of indigo. When a blight, however, wiped -out the indigo props, De Bore and the other planters were faced with bankruptcy.
Many planters already had 'tried to granulate sugar from cane juice, but their experiments failed time after time. De Bore, overriding the protests Of his wife, decided to have a fling at the sugar business.
Utilize Smoke Pipe's Heat A new device utilizes the heat
from the smoke pipe of a house heating plant to heat, water for the bathroom, kitchen and laundry. The' unit1 consists of a jacket of cast' iron or aluminum alloy which is clahiped around the smoke pipe. Cold water from a storage- tank travels to the' jacket where it is heated and then returns to the upper half of the tank. There is a continuous circulation of water between the storage tank and the heating unii around the smoke pipe. It is claimed that water which enters the unit at a temperature of 48 degrees is heated to a temperature of 130 when it leaves. The unit utilizes heat given off by -a smoke pipe which otherwise is wasted.

Origin o t Word Maverick For AJU Stray Yearlings
Every ranchman in Montana knows, that a maverick is a yearling calf without a brand, the property of the first handyman who affixes his brand to the animal, providing, always, that he is not caught a"t it. Time was when all one needed to make a start-'in the cattle business was a rope and a bran'ding iron.
How many are there who know how the word "maverick" originated. Capt. Dan W. Roberts,. one of the organizers of the famous Texas rangers, in his book, "Rangers
'and Sovereignity," explains the origin of the word as follows:
"In the early days of Texas, say from 1845 ' to 1860, the' cattlemen worked together" in perfect harmony and in each other's interest. Sam Maverick was probably the largest cattle owner in the state, at that time. So large was the area of" his cattle range that his men could hardly get over it in one season to mark and brand his calves. -Maverick was a wealthy and influential man and the small cattle owners looked after.his interests, together with their own.
"When the- cattlemen were working their ranges and'came upon a yearling that was not marked or branded, they generally conceded that it belonged to Sam Maverick. So common was the* expression 'maverick' that they applied it straight to the animal, and all un-branded yearlings were called aaavericks. The term became general i all over the state and spread into other states of the West, where there was any cattle raising."
.Origin of Sabotage The word "sabotage," much in the
news, i s from the French "sabot"— a wooden shoe. In its original interpretation, the meaning came from the practice of throwing a wooden shoe into the machinery in order to stop production.
Drinking Coffee Forbidden Drinking coffee was forbidden in
Sixteenth - century Constantinople. The ruling dictator believed that coffee stimulated thinking among the common people. The first' offense was punished by a beating; the second by death, t

Savants Perfect Way For X :Raying Metals
A new technique for* X-ray analysis of metals, alloys, welds, or small flfcetal parts, which may be of great value to the armament industry as well /as for peace time work, was discussed.' recently at the twenty-second annual convention of the Anerican-Society of Metals'.
Early developments of this meth-0 are now used'in airplane manu-Mkcturing. The improved technique *aras presented by Dr. G. L. Clark, University of Illinois chemistry professor, and Dr. W. M. Staffer, Iowa-
' SfeHie Teachers college' chemistry professor.
i t involves X-raying a thin specimen of the metal on plates having special, extremely fine grain photographic emulsions, and then enlarging this negative 100 to 200 times. The original photograph - is about the size of the end of a lead pencil.
The enlargement shows elements in the . metal, whether they are spread evenly or bunched, and any flaws or cracks which are in the •aetal. These flaws may be originally present or result from working the metal. Flaws in welds are instantly noticeable. Entire small metal parts may be X-rayed.
The X-r.ay gives the metallurgist a three-dimensional view, enabling him actually to look into. the specimen. Other methods of microscopic study show him. only the surface, and involve troublesome techniques of etching or polishing.

Pastor Developing Cloth Fresco A streamline version of an ancient
art is being developed by the Reverend Omer J. Chevrette of West Warren, Mass. He has been granted a - patent on his process of painting fresco on cloth, a work that seemingly has aroused the interest of the art world. Under Reverend Chevrette's process, a slcetch is first outlined, in pencil, the cloth is saturated with dyes, and when dry are covered with water color pigments. This process gives depth and richness of tone as well as a lasting picture. Under the ancient process, artists first 1 outlined a sketch on fresh plaster, then laid .in colors which would sink into the plaster and make a permanent picture. Reverend Chevrette is spending all his spare time on his new process.
Seal That Apes Judas War on marauding sea lions and
their concubines is being waged on the lower Columbia river, near Portland, Ore. Commercial fishermen, last year, lost" half of their late fall catch when the sea lions robbed, the fisher men's gilknets. A trained seal will act as a decoy to bring.the $ea lions within range of riflemen. The seal will go out among the herd of sea lions and attract them shoreward where armed fishermen will, crack on all the lions but the one used as a decoy. The sea lions work* along the stretch of a gill-net eating a fish here and there and often biting a chunk out of a fish, leaving tell-. tale mark's to the disgust of the fisherman.
