Lyon In Little Folks food that will serve the same purpose Is of great importance To understand this better we must follow the couise of start digestion When starchy food as a morsel of boiled potato is taken Into the mouth it is at once acted on by a ferment contained In the saliva and this action Is continued by a ferment contained in the intestines It is broken up Into simpler chemical compounds and It finally reachts the blood and museles as dextrose a form of sugar which cun be burned to yield heat and muscular energy When an excess of carbohydrates (sugar or starch) is the dextrose In the digestive tract Is converted In the liver to glycogen and stored until required being then it is believed reconverted into dextrose More complex changes may take place which convert carbohydrates consumed in excess into fat which is also stored at a reserve material The main function of sugar as found in the blood whether resulting from the digestion of sugar or of starch Is believed to be the production of heat and energy The proof has been amply furnished by experiment By Ingenious devices the blood going to and from a muscle of a living animal may be analyzed and It is thus shown that more blood traverses an active or working muscle and more sugar disappears front it than Is the case with a muscle at rest The question naturally arises How does the sugar of our food differ from starch as a source of muscle power? The fact that we In this manufactured article practically the same substance as that which results from the digestion of starch as found in vegetable foods at once suggests its substitution for starch to the advantage of the system since it docs not burden the digestive tract and les force Is required for its digestion To decide this question much careful laboratory work has been carried on since 1MI1 when Mosso an Italian investigator first examined the influence of cane sugar in lessening fatigue This he did by the use of the ergogi aph an instrument devised by him for testing the work done by certain muscles of the hand He found as a result that sugar in the food in not too great quantities ami not too concentrated lessens or delays fatigue and increases working power Prof Vaughan Harley continued these experiments In Moseo's laboratory using much larger quantities of sugar with the result that the amount of muscle work was greatly increased by it He compared the work he could do in twenty-four hours fasting with what he could do when taking fitlil grains (17Vj ounces) of sugar dissolved in pure water and found that on the sugar day lie could do til to 7(i per cent more work or almost as much as on a full ordinary diet When nine ounces of sugar was added to the ordinary diet or to a meager diet the gain in muscle power was also considerable The effort although felt one-half hour after eating was at its hlght In two hours Very Interesting also was the effect of sugar In delaying the natural coming on of fatigue which has been found to occur between 7 and 7 If three cr four ounces of sugar were taken a short time heforelhishour the ordinary fatigue did not appear and work went on ns linin' At about the same time the Prussian War Office authorized a test of Profess universal Import in the dinner-pail woild namely means for heating the coffee or tea with which the noon-day meal Is usually washed down and the warming of the food if that is desirable As shown the dinner-pail proper suffer In the least This skin or hide of the animal Is Its chief article of value No wonder that the bullets often fall to penetrate this skin for It is from three-quarters to nn Inch thick nnd as tough as It is thick The skin when cured and tanned makes excellent leather for certain purposes The Boers make riding whips and sandals out of the skins they do not send to Europe The bones of the giraffe have also a commercial value The leg hones are solid instead of hollow and In Europe they are in great demand for manufacturing buttons and other hone artleles The tendonH of the giraffe are so strong that they will sustain an enormous dead weight which gives to them pecuniary value The extinction of the giraffe In South Africa Is to be deplored because the animal is peculiarly adapted to the wilderness of forest and veldt where It feeds on the giraffe acacia that nature seems to have raised specially for it A Disagreeable Playmate SCALLOPS Nothing that comes from the fish market will prove more acceptable to your family than scalp ps if you can get them fresh and sweet Like all fish foods they spoil rather quickly and it Is generally well to scald them before using Perhaps the most common and popular ways of serving scallops ate given below and all are simple recipes easy of trial SCALLOPS EN BROCHETTE Select large scallops and wash thoroughly In cold water then drain and pour over them boiling water letting them stand for a few minutes when they should be again drained and wiped any fashionable goods of stylish hue could be trimmed in tills general manner As Winter fashions become more settled it is apparent that velvets will be in rivival for trimmings With the Vel Hunting the Giraffe In the early days of South African history says a writer In the Scientific American the giraffe was the most abundant game in the Transvaal Ma-tjilielelnnd and Orange Free State but the creature hns been killed off like our American buffalo and the few remaining representatives of a noble race gradually driven ninth For years past the giraffe has been a profitable quarry for the Boer hunters and the animal was valued by them only because the liidis were articles of commercial use They were pot-hunted shot down in droves and destroyed in the greatest number possible in every direction The extinction of the animal in South Africa is now threatened and Its preservation by legislation comes when It is almost too late In this respect too the brief history of the creature will resemble the storv of our buffalo A good giraffe skin is worth from $10 to $20 in South Africa to-ilny and much more in Europe On their hunting trips ten and fifteen years ago it was a common matter for one hunter to kill forty and fifty of these graceful animals In one day The reason for this Is that the giraffe Is the most Innocent of animals and easily huhted They are absolutely defenseless and there Is hardly a case on record where a wounded giraffe turned upon the hunter It Is true they have great poweis of speed and they can dodge rapidly from tree to tree in the woods hut they offer such a fair mark that these tactics hardly ever save them Not until unusually frightened does the giraffe make its best speed and it is often too late for the hunter Is upon it There Is really no element of danger connected with this sport and that makes It less exciting and attractive to a true sportsman Under certain circumstances It is possible to he Injured with the powerful legs of the giraffe which are capable of kicking a blow that would kill a lion Tills latter beast for tills senson takes good rare to attack the giraffe at unexpected moments It takes a good horse to run down a giraffe nnd if the least advantage is pcnnitted the wild creature tne race Is lost Its peculiar gait Is very ungraceful and deceptive hut It covers (he ground with remarkable facility In the open veldt the lumteis always have the best of the race hut the gliaffe when surprised makes Instantly for the forest where tough vines und intermingling blanches make travel difficult for the hunter The hushes and thorns tear and lacerate the skin of the horses hut the tough skin of the gliaffe Is barely scratched The creature will tear a path through the toughest and thickest Jungle nnd never vet on a stylish dress goes a conslder-dry or dried on a

way of Intelligence of Ants The famous leaf-cutting ants of Nicaragua do much damage to plants and trees They move In vast masses they seem to look upon everything below an army with contempt Thus when they are killed they are usually slain in enormous numbers Once a mining Superintendent had lal 1 down a car-track for the carriage of all sorts of stuff These linos puzzled the ants greatly When wagons came along they crushed the insects that happened to lie crossing in crowds at the time In spite of this widespread destruction the ants persisted in crossing the rails hut at last they discovered the real state of things Then these wonderfully wise wee creatures made tunnels beneath the lines by means of which they passed over to the other side in safety To try their Intelligence the Superintendent stopped up the tunnels What did they do then? They never crossed over the rnthvny hut Invariably set to work to build fresh tunnels the scallops and bacon having a piece of the latter at the beginning and end of the skewes A half dozen scallops combining the two Striped velvets are In fashion and offer a good medium for obtaining a look of newness Then may be placed on each skewer Dtp the velvet Is stitched or tucked or both each skewer as prepared Into melted Just so it shall All butter roll in fresh bread crumbs and sot ts of lace may be used hut duchess broil over a hot fire for ten minutes 'and mechlin appear to be In especial fa-or If you prefer place in hot deep fat vor Persian colors are to the fore in and cook until brown draining on rough goods and in applied trimmings One new and attractive wny of dlsplayin them is in ornamental stitching Here Elder What!

to perform extraordinary muscular labor" According to our present knowledge the value of sugar ns a food for 11111s cular work may he briefly summurlzei as follows: When the organism is adapted to the digestion of sturch and there is sufficient time for its utilization sugn has no advantage over starch as a food for muscular work except as a pre ventive of fatigue In small quantities and In net too concentrated form sugar will take the place practically speaking weight for weight of starch ns a food for musrulnr work barring the differ ence In energy and in time required to digest them sugar having here the advantage Third It furnishes the needed carbohydrate material to organisms that have as yet iittie or no power to digest starch Thus milk sugar Is part ot the nntuial food of the Infant Foul In times of great exertion or exhausting labor the rapidity with which it Is assimilated gives It certain advantages over stareh This Intter quality which renders It mote rapidly available for muscle force may perhaps account for the fait that sugar Is so relished by people who are doing musrulHr work ami by those of very active habits as children Sugar like starch Is fattening that is when taken in excess It may lie transformed Into fat and stored as reserve material On this aceount physicians advise that sugar be spailngly usd by the corpulent Both molasses and sugar have 'been successfully used In fattening cuttle and pigs the fat being found to lie firm and of good quality With attic 700 grams a day were profitably eaten It Is said that in Santo Domingo at times When the Importation of gialn has been suspended for lark of ships raw sugar has been used to fatten horses and rattle for months together the person of medium size has almost unlimited rnnge in which to
