MIDNIGHT SPREADS.
For years it has been dinned into our ears that we should not eat before going to sleep, and we have forgone many a pleasant bite for fear of sacrificing our good health. And now along comes a noted physician and tells us that many morning headaches were merely the result of hunger. This does not mean that we can immediately proceed to gorge ourselves with all sorts of sweets and not have to pay the penalty the next morning. Sweets should be eschewed during the midnight repast, and one should substitute some wholesome sandwiches—cheese sandwiches are wholesome and nourishing and can be eaten with impunity even during the wee small hours.
TO FRESHEN LEMONS.
If lemons are old and dry, place them in a pan of hot water and keep the water at an even temperature for a few hours. As a result the lemons will become fresh and juicy again.
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE
The subscription price of The Half-Century is 75 cents per year, or 50 cents for six months. Some time ago we made an offer as a special inducement to send the publication for one year for fifty cents—to all who would send us their subscription before the date of publication. The responses were very flattering, which shows in what confidence the management is held. As this offer did not reach many of our friends in time to take advantage of the same, we have decided to extend the offer until August 10, 1916. The offer will positively be withdrawn on that date. As a matter of fact, the probabilities are that the subscription price will have to be advanced to One Dollar per year, on account of the steady advance in the cost of paper, printing inks, labor, etc.
Therefore, we suggest that you take the benefit of this extremely low offer, by filling in the attached coupon and mailing same with your remittance to us promptly.
