Wholesome and AppetiSing Dishes Fop
Youthful Digestion.

IOuthful Digestion.
Catering for tho children 8 eating
is one of the most trying as it is
one of the most important parts of
the modern mothers household du-
ties. The word modern is used ad-
visedly, for it Is only recently that
mothers have realized that what
their children eat is powerful phys
ioal and moral agent in their devol-
opment. Health, temper and, to a
certain extent, ability, all wait upon
digestion and digestion upon whole
some living. The growing genera
tion itself understands this. "Send

How to givo her children the
food they need and yet satisfy the
childish craving for various un.
wholesome edibles is tho problem
that oonfronts tho painstaking chat
elaine every morning when she goes
to the kitchen for talk about tho
days meals with the priestess of
that domain. A few simple facts
will help her. One is that cooked
over meat is most indigestible. 1t
may be heated through in hot gra-
Wy or minced fine and rolled in a
ball of mashed potato, buttor youth
full stomachs it should not be twice
brought to the cooking point. Meat
pies are most wholesome when made
of fresh meat and with biscuit
rather than pastry crust.
A vegetable pie is dish children
usually like. To make it, deep dish
should be filled with sliced pota-
toes, onions, chopped carrots and
turnips, a fow bits of butter put on
top, seasoning of salt and very
little white pepper, and the dish
nearly filled with gravy or stock.
Cook the vegetables until nearly
tender before putting OH biscuit
crust. Tomatoes sliced and alternnt-
ed with carrots, onions and maoaro-
nj, or mushrooms and potatoes,
with very little onion, or potato
pie with onions and apples to flavor
it-are all variations of this dish. A
pound of juicy, fresh steak, minced
fine and alternating with sliced po-
tatoes, the whole covered with
thin crust, or layer of grated bread
crumbs, put on only long enough to
brown before being taken from the
oven, is another nourishing and
very appetizing pie. Green salads

Musical instrument Strings.

The fact appears that, even at this
late day, tho Neapolitan provinces
maintain thoir superiority in the
production of strings for musical in
strumcnts, and, rs formerly and
from time immemorial, the greatest
care and dexterity are required on
the part of the workmen. 1t is said
that the treble strings arc particular
ly difficult to make and are peculiar
to Naples, as the Neapolitap sheep,
from their small size and loanness,
afford the best raw material. The
small intestines are used for this
purpose and are first very carefully
scrapcd, then stepped in alkaline lycs
and clarified with q little alum for
four or five days, until well bleached
and swollen. They are next drawn
through an open brass thimble and
pressed against it with tho nail in
order to smooth and equalize tho sur
face, after which they are washed,
spun or twisted and sulphured dur
ing two hours, being finally polished
by friction and dried. Sometimes
they are sulphured twice or thrice
before being dried and are polished
between horsobair cords. These
strings are noted for their strength,
transparency, brilliancy and clear
ness of tone. and, besides Naples,
the industry is carried ON in various
other italian localities - namely,
Gcbbio, Foligno, Bologna, Venice,
Verona and Bassano.

An American Dog Story From England.

A carter in Wilmington, Dol, had
q staid and dignified big dog that
accompanied him on his trips. At
one place an impudent little whilfet
used to como out and bark at the
big dog, who, however, did not
,ign to notice this insolepco. But
the whiffet once went too far and
snapped at tho big dog, with the re-
suit that tho mastiff caught the lit
tlo fellow by tho back of the neck
and took him and hold his head just
In front of the cart wheel. AS soon
as tho wheel caught tho little dogs
head of course it crushed it, as the
cart was heavily loaded with bricks.
Thereupon the mastiff walked back
with dignity to his accustomed plaoo
beside tho shaft horse nor deigned
to cast look behind. London

Still Using Flintlocks.

wick the other day which said that
1intlock guns were still in use UP in

since it had been started by his grand
ather, away back in 1886. Probably he
would lose trade if he did not have
hem in stock. 1t is not improbable that
indians in the north woods of Canada
still use f1intlock guns, but to use them

IS curious.

MAUI, Oct. 10.-An episode of the

is a stronghold of native royalists. Just
previous to Sept. 9th a meeting Of the

appointed and instructed to make

to take no action in regard to filling
out the blanks. But the whole affair
was a fisco-''a game of bluff for on

"crawfished" completely and acted like

A NEW PROPOSITION.
Steamers From Yokohama to San
Diego via Honolulu.

Steamers From Yokohama to San
Diego via Honolulu.
SAN DIEGO, Sept. ga. H. Butler,
representatives of President Soichiro
Asano of the japanese Steamship Com
pany, is expected to arrive from New
York early next week with a new pro-
position from Asano to the Chambers
of Commerce of this city and Los An
geles for running steamers from Yoko-
hama TO San Diego via Honolulu.
The feature of the former PROPOSE
ton which blocked negotiations was
Asano's desire to make San Francisco
a port of call. 1t is, understood from
intimations in the letter from Butler to
President Morse of the Chamber of
Commerce that this demand will be
leaving the steamer line purely a South
ern California affair. Butler has been
in correspondence with H. Ottawa and
Sho Nemoto, who went to the City OF
Mexico for the purpose of securing
steamship concession and subsidy from
Mexico. They said the whole mat
ter hinged on the success of negotia-
tions on the part of T. kusakado, re-
preventative of the Japanese Coloni-
cation Association, for a concession of
land in the State of Chiapas for plant
ing Japanese colony.
Since it is known that these negoti-
ations resulted favorably, it is regarded
here as settled that the Japanese have
secured steamship concession. This
means that the steamships will ply
from Yokohama to San Diego and
thence south to San Benito, State of
Chiapas..
Perhaps the most significant utter
ance coming from the japanese is con-
tanned in a letter from their represen-
tative to a friend here. He says: 4
regard it as practically settled that the
steamers will come to San Diego from
the fact Asano admits that no other
Pacific port seems open to him on
terms he can meet. He is bound to
come across the Pacific with his steam
ers. He will also run line from Kobe
to Vladivostock for transporting oil.

quire an outlet can find it only in the

Don't DO 1t.

The Judiciary Committee of the City
Council wants to reduce the license on
beer depots from one hundred and
fifty dollars to fifty dollars. Now
this is wrong. The license of one
hundred and fifty dollars per year on
beer depots is not too much. We
have brewery in this city that can
supply all the beer that the home
market demands and it is to the inter-
est of every citizen in the city to de-
mand that that brewery receive the
undivided patronage of the dealers in
the city.
We do not have to patronize the
English beer syndicates. and We do
not think it would be right to reduce
the license on the English syndicate

er from Brazil to the United States
n communication with the Washing
on Post with reference to Mr.. De

| Association, writes as follows:
Mr.. Depew's fears that Venezuela
Or Brazil would be willing to sell Il
portion OF their territory seems t.
AIRY him to the conclusion that "a
JrotectOrate of the United States OF
america over its Latin neighbors
would become Indispensable. In re-
gard to this point Mr.. Depew is as well
lformed as in regard to the disposi
ion of property in the South Ameri-
an countries at the 'whim OF the die
ators of the hour. From his ignor-
tnce of the actual condition of the
-atin-American nations he exterts the
argument that the only device TO keep
,uch nations in good behavior toward
ne European Powers is to keep them
outside of the pretectOrate Of the re-
,Jublic of the north.
IF Mr.. Chauncey NJ. Depew were as
Eell acquainted with the Latin-Ameri-
;an countries as he is with the finan-
clal relations between this country and
europe he would know that at present

Latin-American nation
would cOuntenance the idea of pro-
even if offered them by their

The principal argument of Mr.. De-
pew's theory is merely an absurdity.
When the United States proclaimed,
in 1923, the Monroe doctrine, its popu-
lation amounted to 10,000,00 and at
that time this country had already

Division No. of the Supreme
Court of Missouri took fall out OF
the Lancaster barber law Tuesday
morning. They shaved it clean et

unconstitutionality was plainly visible

will be held in loving memory by the
gentlemen who like to rub a smooth
face during Sabbath service and by
Others who fancy an icebag as we'll as

ventures.

blows on Senator Lancaster's little
