milk is such a rich source well according to nu trition- services she gets it from- the large quantities of grass hay and grain that she eats each day dont get alarmed though nu trition services isnt going to recom mend that quantities of hay and grass be added to the human diet we will still have to worry along getting most of our calcium via the cow the human digestive apparatus differs from the cows and is not equipped to handle such large quan tities of vegetable foods humans however do derive some of their daily supply of calcium from vegetables the leafy green ones and potatoes and some

hitting the hot but not flaming coals the grease turned to an explosive gas in the pipes and chimney a small tongue of flame burst through ignit ing the gas the resultant miniature explosion was almost as destructive as a block buster it took down every length of stove pipe in the de partment scattering soot- and ashes far and wide the force was such that it knocked the first few courses of brick from the chimney on the roof of the building we know that mrs itothwell has the sympathy of every good housekeeper who chances to read this also in ilnefir a bit of sympathy is mr soth mathers
