Dyspepsia and finicky Washington. appetites are probably in store for Greenland Eskimos. Late news dispatches from Copenhagen state that a cook book of 4b0 recipes hns been compiled to Inject novelty Into the simple Eskimo diet. The volume will be translated Into the natie Greenland dialect. 'Tgloo cookery presents few problems, according to a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "The Eskimo wife has never known the strivings of her white sister to excel as a fancy cook. Her husband hns never regaled her with tales of the pies his mother used to bake, for he has never tasted pastry or candy of any sort In his life. Meat Is his almost unvarying food. The meat of the polar bear, seal, walrus, caribou, white whale, narwhal, and musk oxen, are all palatable to him. Simple Equipment. The average Eskimo bride starting housekeeping in a new igloo needs only four things in the way of furnishings: a meat knife, lamp, cooking pot, and sewing kit. The blubber burning lamp, which also serves as a stove, Is usually n"ar the entrance to the hun Suspended from the ceiling above it hangs a large soapstone cooking pot Clay Target Champ Ned Lilly, a sex euteen-- j ear-ollad from Stanton, Mich., won the national clay target championship at the thirty-fourt- h annual grand American trap hooting tournament held at Vandalia, Ohio. Ned, the first junior to capture this title, broke 199 out of 200 targets. He also successfully defended his Junior title, won last year. d from which comes the aroma of boiling seal meat. At the sound of the sleds reluming from the day's huntthe INkinto wife, ing expedition, crouching over the stove, stirs the pot of simmering seal meat for her husbands supper. Dropping In for an evening meal with an Eskimo family, one would see old and young squatting on their heels, and each ready with a knife. Each member of the group takes a piece of Juicy, cooked seal or walrus meat In his left hand, shoves it into his mouth, and seizes a strip between his teeth. With a deft stroke of the knife, he cuts off a mouthful. Just at the lips. Oftentimes liver and blubber are held in each hand, and eaten alternately. The meat is washed down with draughts of ice cold water. No Fruits or Vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are unknown Items In the diet of the Eskimo. When the meat supply is exhausted, the Greenland Eskimos gather rockvveed and kelp, and dig the hark of willow bush out of the frozen soil. This Is cooked into a jelly in the soapstone pot. This food, however, is not pleasing to the Eskimo palate, and Is eaten only to stave off starvation when more The desirable food Is unobtainable. nearest approach to ordinary vegetable matter consumed by the Eskimo Is the moss found in the stomachs of the caribou. This material becomes the Eskimos greens. Fish eaten either boiled or raw, offer variety to the menu. Clams are also included in the seafood dishes of the Greenland Eskimo. He obtains them via the stomach of some freshly-kille- d walrus who has just feasted Stuffed head of upon the mollusks. walrus is undoubtedly the subject of at least one of the new recipes, designed for the Greenlanders. They are lend of the unadorned head, and could possibly cultivate a taste for an elaborate preparation of it. In the Greenland spring, the dove-kie- , or little auk, appears. This means another dietary change for the natives. Through the summer hundreds of these birds are netted and stored for food during the long winter months. The eggs of the eider duck, the brant goose, and the gull are the object of an intense search near the end of June each year. The family egg supply for the coming winter is stored In stone caches where the eggs become chilled first, and then frozen. They remain in this condition until eaten in the winter. Not all of the eggs collected are stored, however, for the Eskimo wife prepares an egg sausage, sometimes using as many as 300 eggs to one sausage. The eggs are broken and poured Into a washed seal intestine, and in this state are eaten from time to time throughout the winter.

The poems which we can recite from memory are those which reflect the common experiences of our daily life. The greatest satisfaction which can come to one is one's ability to get out of elemental things new beauty, power and strength. Hpien Keller Is quoted as having said, If I had but three days to see. T would stand at a busy corner and merely look at people, trying by sight of them to understand something of their daily lives. I see smiles and I am happy. Edward MacDowell, In his "Ode to an Old Tine, writes : O giant of an ancient race, He stands a stubborn sentinel O'er swaying, gentle forest trees That whisper at his feet." Science gives first place to the consideration of common things. The smallest particle of matter contains the ultimate truth as evidenced in recent research in the field of atoms, molecules and electrons.

There is perhaps no more ber.utiful story of untiring devotion and persistent effort than that of Ludy Jane Franklin who, after the failure of many attempts, fitted out a ship, which, though it brought back to her the definite proof of the loss of her husband's expedition, his achievement of his ob- ject Pocahontas and Victoria. The picturesque stories of the little Indian princess Pocahontas always will hold a loved place in the hearts of American childhood. Counties in Iowa and West Virginia, villages in Bond county, Illinois, and Cape Girardeau county, Mississippi, and the Rocky mountains in Alberta, Canada, are named for her. Queen Victorias name is wrapped around the British empire from the capital of British Columbia, over tlte heart of Africa at Victoria and Victoria Falls, and be yond into the Queensland and Victoria In far uway Australia. America, too, in Its early days of colonization paid its tribute to the queens of tlte mother country and to the gracious Indies who braved the dangers of untried hnre with their lords. Elizabeth, a cape In Maine, and Elizabeth City in Virginia, as well as the state Itself, other together with some twenty-fivplaces In the United States, bear the uante of the clever, witty, versatile coquette, who took the dissension-tor- n England r.nd whipped it into a dace as a world power. Elizabeth Carteret, the charming wife of one of the aristocratic proprietors of New Jersey, shares with Queen Elizabeth some of the honors of the name, Elizabethtown in North Car olina, and Elizabeth City, in New Jersey, are named for her. There wasnt any Martha of Marthas Vineyard. The first name is supposed to be a corruption of Martin, a friend of the discoverer of the Island. The word Vineyard was added later on account of the wild grapes found on the island. the name which Lief Erickson gave the North American continent, was suggested In a similar manner. Maryland and Virginia are fairly bespattered with the names of the queens and princesses of England, s themselves bethe very ing taken from that of Queen Henrietta Maria, the wife of Charles L and the disputably fortunate estate of Elizabeth. Then, too, there are Annapolis, named for the wife of James I of England; and Anne Arundel and Caroline counties, in Maryland, called after the wives of two of the Calverts; Fluvanna county and the North Anna river in Virginia named for Queen Anne; aud Amelia and Carolina Charlotte, counties and Charlottesville, the home of the University of Virginia, all called for the wives and daughters of tho English kings. For Constantine's Mother. St. Helena, the rugged little island in the Pacific which has such a soothing effect upon the restless tendencies of autocrats, bears the name of the mother of Constantine the Great, who, according to legend, discovered the cross upon which Christ died, during a visit she made to the Holy Land. She was known in the early days of Christianity for her Helena, religious zeal and piety. Mont., though opinions differ as to the origin of the name, is said to have been so called because of the resemblance of its location to that of St Helena.
