EASTERN PAPER
The St. Louis Republic, of Sun- I
day, January 27, prints a three I
oolunui article headed "Housekeep-1
era In Yukon Kept Busy As Trap
pers, Says Fur Dealers' Wives," and |
under the heading are two pictures j
each of Airs. F. Drury, of White-!
horse ,and Mrs. U.. Vodick, of Daw
sou, showing the ladies dressed iu |
furs which their husbands had trap
ped in the iiorthltuid.
.The writer of the article prints ,
an interview with Mrs. Vodick
which tells in detail the customs of
the north ,a.ud describes the weather
conditions for the whole year, tells
of what the northerners eat, of
Eskimo life, of dog teams, hunting,
a.-d of conditions in general.
St. Louis is one of the biggest fur
markets in the world ,aud the Re
public devotes several columns dail>*
to that subject. Speakuig of Mrs*
Drury and Mrs. Vodick the article
says:
"The great fur sales at St. Louis
brinjr all sorts of interesting people
to the Fur Exchange. ' And it is
pretty safe to say that two more
interesting women have seldom.—if
ever—sat in that big auction hall
than Mrs. Vodick and Mre. Drury.
Both, are wives of fur merchants
from the Yukon Territory; but Mrs.
Drury is a recent bride, while Mrs.
Vodick is a matron of many years'
standing.
"Mrs. Vodick came to the section
wearing a supero cloak of mink,
the rich, deep, dark kind, that fur
buyers gloat over when examining
the offerings at the warehouse. And
the coat oomes well down to the
shoe tops, too ,so that it is no smajl
garment. Oh, yes, Mrs. Vodick
wears her skirt hems just a sensible
length, so that the full length coat
must be taken to mean just exactly
what it sayB. That ladj; does not
believe in having her Bkirte a mere
frill extending from the waist line
to the knee line, there to be met
with a 12 or 14 Inch high pair of
suede boots." i • u j . L

A Comet Scare.
Joseph Jerome Lafrancals de La
lande, the popuiar French astronomer
of the eighteenth century, differed
from Newton's view that Providence
had so arranged matters as to make
collision of the earth with n comet Im
possible and wrote a paper to prove
that It was only very Improbable. This
paper, which was to have been read
with others Ik-fore the French academy
on a certain day in 1773, got crowded
out, but the Purlslan public, hearing of
It. made up its mind that Laiande bad
predicted the impending destruction of
the earth, and such panic ensued that
the police had to order the publication
of the paper to reassure the public
mind. But even then it was popularly
believed that the paper bnd been delib
erately toned down, and comet panics
ensued for a quarter of a century.
Cold Feet.
Persons afflicted with cold feet. In
stead of takiuE » 1101 Aatlron or brick

or "feet envelopes" of eiderdown flan

a yard and a half of eiderdown flannel,
a yard wide. Fold this together en

leaving eight or ten inches for the flap.

Their Quarrel.

Without an. agreement on the part
of the women of the country to con
serve avoid waste and sacrifice what
they and theirs do not need, there
will not be enough food for the na
tional army nor for the allies with
whom we have joined cause.
The sacrifice does not include
hardship or discomfort; it does in
clude merely a change in the menu
whereby the stay-at-homes agree
to eat more of the foods that can
not be shipped across seas in order
that our soldiers and their comr&dea
may have what Miey need of the
things that can be shipped across
seas—such as wheat flour, red meat,
sugar, fata.
A meatless day means no kind
i nor part of meat, not even liver, or
kidney.
| When you substitute fish or eggs
! or something else for meat, you are
I helping the government.

| meatless meals:
I Kippered fish may he steamed and
served with boiled potatoes and a
[scalloped vegetable.. Clams, well
i washed, may be steamed, fried scai
| loped or made into chowder. Canned
clams may be used. Jlix eggs with
. milk: or milk and cheese in cooking.
, Bake rice with plenty of grated
I cheese covered with milk. Grind
peanuts or any nuts> mixed Kith
bread crumbs and seasoning", and
brown, in oven. Dried lima beans
may to soaked, bolied and then batt
ed like Boston baked beans. Use
dried peas made into soup with
milk; or scallop, or mash and mix
with bread erumos and seasoning to
bake in loaf or small cakea.
Soy beans may be wished, boiled
until tender, mashed and used I'll*
any other kind of beans. Oysters
and crabs may be used in numberles
5Vays. Try using fish, an excellent
meat substitute, for several meal»
during the week. Do not usq tha
same fish always; try new kinds. If
you live on the coast where fresh
fish is to be bad at the markets,
do personal selecting. Buy only
fresh fish. If cooked fish is not
used at once, cool it quickly. Left
over fish may be made into fine
dishes.
