She Lubricates Herself.

When a bright-eyed, handsome woman,
who has nearly reached the half CEN
fury meridian, but who looks about
thirty-five, was asked how she managed
to keep so young, she promptly replied:

In the twenty-fourth round OF the

Johnny Murphy, who was part icipa ting
in joint debate with Billy Plimmer
for bantam championship honors,
stopped sparring to scratch his head.
Was he thinking of home and mother.

his mental process was concerned with

having been jabbed and punched hard
and heavy for siXty-three minutes, would
have been thinking about that time OF

WILL JAPAN sTOPi

China cries Enough" and wants to
quit fighting. But Japan will not have
it so. and seems to be bent on directing
her forces on Pekin.
Thus far Japan has shown her SUI
periority over China as a fighter. She
can now probably make about her own
terms for peace. and thus gain n sub
stantial benefit from the war. But It
must be remembered there are a great
many people in China. and 1t may be
found that even Chinese are dangerous
foes when their country is trodden by
an enemy and their homes are invaded,
No one likes to see nation overrun
by a foreign army. The sympathy of
the world was largely with France
when the Germans were on her soil
and laying siege to her capital. The
idea of the violation OF home sanctity
and the thought OF the sufferings OF
women and children in the track OF the
invaders will always turn the scale of
humanity on the side OF the country
invaded.
Better be contented with yodr good
| fortune, Mr.. Mikado. make peace and
keep your gallant warriors at home.

For sponge cake and pound cake have
heat that will in five minutes turn a
piece of white paper yellow.
For all other kinds of cut cake use an
oven that will in five minutes turn a
piece of white paper dark yellow.
For bread and pastry have an oven that
will in five minutes turn piece of white
paper dark brown.
When the oven Is too hot at first a
crust forms on the bread or cake, which
prevents Its rising. 1t Is better when
baking bread and cake to have the oven
little slow at first and increase the
heat gradually.
When baking puff paste the heat should
be greatest first and decrease later.
This is to keep the paste in shape.
When the oven is too hot the tenn
perature may be reduced by putting in
1t a pan of cold water.
When baking In an oven that is too
hot at the top fill with cold water a drip

Should the oven be too hot on the bot

Hints for Housewives.

1t is a thing worth knowing in these
"grilling days" that meat should never
be placed directly on the ice, as its
juices will be absorbed. Put it on a
dish and set in a cool place.
All traces of mud can easily be re-
moved from black clothes by rubbing
the spots with a raw potato cut in
half.
Soda Is an excellent material for clean
ing tlnware. Apply damp with cloth
then rub dry.
1t is said that nothing Is better thar
coal ashes for use in securing stee
knives and forks and tinware. They
should be sifted twice, the second tim,
through fine wire sieve.
For a burn, take sweet oil and lime
water, equal parts; mix and keep tn,
burn well covered with 1t.
Lettuce is said to be a sleep producer
as Is also celery.

GETTING LIGHT.

1t begins to look as II the Republic
cans recognize the change that has
taken place in the political outlook
within the past few days and are taking
alarm at the signs seen all around
There Is less disposition now to play an
opera-boufe game with poor Quigg. or
bluff game with a reputable and in
all hut politics desirable candidate
like Mr.. Bliss.
The Tribune has heretofore backed
up Boss Plat in the demand for "A
straight" Republican ticket. Its first
weakening was when II manifested n
willingness to give up all but Mayor.
Its backdown seems to be complete
now, when II practically kicks poor
Quigg out strips of his peacock
feathers and declares the candidate
must be not so much a politician as n
successful and experienced business
man, identified with the moral and
material development of New York"

VIII Not stand Ii Any Longer.

To the Editor:
As business man, a lifelong citizen OF New
York, a property owner and liberal patron OF
the street cars especially the Third Avenue and
broadway lines. ! want to record my opinion that
it is an outrage that a wealthy corporation like
the Third Avenue Railroad Company should be
permitted TO practise the imposltlo It
does upon the public, and that 1t
can do this day in and day out without any
Interference from the city authorities.
For the sake Of saving a few Of the almighty
dollars that II squeeas out Of the public IL Will
work its old cables until they completely rot
ten and worn out instead of purchasing new
that. II seems to me. the city should have
mower 10 regulate II 1t gives valuable fran
cklseS to these corporations 1t ought certainly TO
have the power TO compel them 10 run their
roads with proper equipment, and in decent
manner. with due regard to the convenience an A
comfort Of the public.
These officials may think that they can practise
eNtortlon on the poor working people OF the city
without fear or restraint but there are a few
patrons OF the Third avenue road who are not
going to stand It any longer II they want to
re, themselves in hot water let them keep
ri ht on with their present tactics. The day
