MAKE THINGS summary.
In the City One Can Make Changes
from Winter to Summer Furnish
ings with Welcome Results.

Light. pretty hangings and materials
as well to make such hangings of, have
progressed at wonderful rate, yet so
insensitly has the progress been made
that most of US are only conscious of
1t now that 80 many houses put on
summer dress as q matter of course.
tits big relief, even If you're only
going to stay in town for a couple of
months, to get rid of heavy hangings
and have a change, so far as possible,
In your surroundings. It's better for
your winter things, too, for dust and
summer weather play havoc with ev-
erything; and winter styles, unlike
those of summer, are rarely made with
any intention Of putting in the tub.
II you're going away, on the other
hand, to your cottage, there are q
thousand things to do to make 1t
bright and gay, yet none that need be
expensive.
More and more people are taking ad-
vantage of summer as an opportunity
to change things q little, making sum-
mer slips to button winter sofa pillows
in-saving the wear and tear on the
winter slips, and yet not having to
take up precious space in the store
room with two sets of, pillows.
Every sort of thing is to be had in
summer guise-table covers of linen or
cotton; the daintiest Powered screens.
made to match the design of the wall
paper exactly and given an odd little
new treatment that frames the flowers
In green; bedspreads and shams that
match the rest of the room, until girl
who can do anything at all with ham
mer and needle can turn her room into
q summer bower, like those of the la
dies in old romances, with a delightful
ly practical difference.
In lots of summer cottages each
room is given it's distinct character
one made into rose room, another
violet, another morning glory, and so
on, each treated in different way. the
change in treatment keeping the repe-
tition of flowers from seeming monoto-
nous.
There's deal of art and lot of
good taste to be employed in choice
and arrangements. White curtains for
the windows of red room are rather
too brash-too sharp contrast. Use
instead the soft ecru shades. or, even
if the merest tint seems still too white,
Arabian color-a deep coffee color-is
always good, like the lace itself from
which the color takes its name, for
curtains.
This year cluny is used more than
ever before in the net curtains, white
or Arabian color, whichever best suits
the room you want them for-prefer-
ably white, If both go with paper and
coloring equally we'll.
II you use double draperies. use
white next the window, and be careful
to keep from too heavy a coloring for
the overhangings.-Loui Courier

A WAY TO BAKE BISCUITS.
Try Batter in Muffin Rings on Grid
die When It Is Impossible to
Get Quick Oven.

Outlines when the busy housewife
desires hot biscuit for her Sunday tea
or for luncheon she discovers that the
oven is not hot enough to bake them
In such emergencies try baking them
in muffin rings on griddle This is
really an excellent plan. and has been
well tested. In fact, hot bread baked
in this way makes pleasant change
occasionally from ordinary biscuit.
One is sure of results. too, which is not
always the case when the oven is used.
The biscuit batter should for this
purpose be little thinner than the or
binary batter. If made as follows, the
biscuit will be light and fluffy: Sift
two teaspoonfuls of baking powder
with two cups of -four. Rub in piece
of butter-about a tablespoonful--and
carefully mix the whole with two scant
cups of milk Grease your griddle with
beef fat, not butter, as that burns so
easily, and not lard. as that gives a
bad taste to the biscuit Grease the
muffin rings also, and place them on
the griddle. Fill them half full with
the mixture. Cover the griddle with a
pan or deep tin cover, and let them
cook slowly-rising before they brown.
If the fire beneath them is too hot they
will burn. AS in everything else. COM

Lion Coffee is package coffee that
reaches the homes of the people just as
it left the factory where it is roasted
and packed.
The beans are picked and carefully Sc
lected at the plantation, then shipped di.
rect to our factories to be prepared for
home use.
The most scrupulous care is taken with
every process, and the utmost cleanliness en-.
forced in every operation. Men and ma
chinery employed in making Lion Coffee
ready for the market are chosen on ac'
count of their excellence and fitness for
the work.
Some of the results of this scrupulous
treatment of Lion Coffee are a delicious
flavor, perfect purity, and a uniform
strength and quality.
All loose Tor bulk) coffee is open to
doubt--to put it mildly. The buyer does
not know, the seller does not know. where
the bean came from, or how it was
roasted, or where and when; how many
hands handled it, what kind of hands
they were, what contamination 1t re-
ceived from dust, insects, dirt, etc.
Lion Coffee is pure, fresh and clean
( that much is certain. Loose coffee
there isn't anything at all certain about
it except that wise housewives will not
buy it!
All grocers know the above to be true.
There may be very few left who will
try to persuade you another way.
If they do, just ask them how they ac-
count for the increasing popularity of Lion
Coffee in millions of homes for the past
quarter Of century!

[ GOOD START.

So, that the reform elements have been

Parsons to the presidency Of the County COM

to work in harmony with him, the TASK re-
naips +o make the whole organization re-
sponsive to the new spirit and representative
of the best public opinion of the community
Mr. Parsons has no easy task before him. He
recognizes this and has laid his plans accord
iugIr. His straightforward refusal to let hlm-
self be handicapped by associates who woulo
not be in sympathy with the policy wh1cn ne
was put forward TO carry out was an hltiai
sten of independence and leadership which mas
greatly strengthened his grasp on the sltuaIioh

Mr.. Parsons is planning to secure e1lclent
and honest representation of the organization
at Albany. and it is to be hoped that he will
90 on and make the organization Itself, In mat
ters pertaining to legislation and public policy,
renresentatire of the progressive thought OF
the ReDublican masses. He should encourage
citizens with ideas of public service TO go 10

THE NEW SUBWAYS.

A question Of immense Importance is raised
by the concentration under one ownership OF
the existing transportation facilities in the Dor
oughs of Manhattan and The Bronx This re-
lates 20 the control of the new lines which are
likely TO be constructed in the next few years
and which are urgently demanded. Just as
soon as the courts determine whether the grant
ing OF franchises must be done by the Board Of
Estimate or the aldermen, the Rapid Transit
Commission VIII be ia position to invite bids
Before taking that step it may be deemed ex-
pedient 10 revise the plans which were adopted
several months ago. These were dictated
primarily by public requirements of course, but
suggestions from men who were likely to re-
spend TO the Commissions invitation were,
properly enough, allowed to exert some inf1u-
ence. A fresh chance to give advice and express
preferences might now be wisely given Still,
unnecessary delay should be avoided. Much
time has already been lost, and consequently
there is even greater cause than ever before for
diligence and energy when the way is again
epen for active proceedings.
Both by reason OF bis experience with the one
subway now IN operation and also on account
OF the practically unlimited capital at his dis
posaI, Mr.. Belmont is qualified TO bid on the
new underground roads. II would be q mis-
take, though TO assume that he will be the
only man TO do so. He has disposed Of one
competitor a formidable rival, too-but he can
not be certain that nc other will appear. From
The point Of view of the city's own interest, 1t
is 10 be hoped that Mr.. Belmont viii not only
enter the field but viii repeat his former offer
10 construct the new subways with his own
money. Such an arrangement would undoubt-
edly be extremely advantageous to the munei-
patty. But whether he gives this assurance or
not, it should not be taken for granted that 40
ene else can win the confidence of the Rapid
Transit Commission. The enormous popularity
of the subway, which was formally opened
fourteen months ago, can hardly fail to tempt
other capitalists TO embark In new ventures of
the ssme kind. Should such development oe-
eur, Mr. Belmont would not be abie 20 dictate
terms 10 the city, and 1t is greatly 20 be hoped
that he viii not be in position to do co.

SERENTH ATENTE.

The decision to transform upper 7th-aVe., from
Central Park to the Harlem River. Into park
way is commendable. Such road is needed
there TO connect Central Park with the parks
and parkways of The Bronx and as an avenue
of access to Central Park from the p0puous re-
gions in the northeastern part OF Manhattan
Years ago, when it was little more than
country road. that part Of 7th-ave was favor
ite drive and was much used as a speedway;
and despite the neglect which it has suffered in
late wears 1t is still numerously frequented by
pleasure drivers. 1t will be boon TO the pub
lie to have 1T improved to the extent Of its fine
possibilities and while it can never have the
superb proportions of Riverside Drive or OF the
great parkways of Brooklyn, 1t can be male
a thing of beauty, and its situation. in relation
to Central Park and to the great residence re-
gions of Harlem VIII make it Of peculiar value
This Improvement will, however, renew and
intensity regret that an unfortunate policy has
practically severed the avenue at it's northern
end from the drives of The Bronx. The Central
Bridge theurh not precisely continuous with
7th-aFe, is practically so, and was intended to
form the connecting link between that avenue
and Jerome-ave. Sedgwlekave. and other
transporting thoroughfares. But now the bridge

tracks and wires as TO make it most unsatis-

yet which runs only an inadequate number of
cars across it and fails to supply that demand
for transportation which led to the surrender of
the bridge 1t would seem extravagant for the

of that one; yet this new parkway will never

would be an attractive feature Of the city, and
would serve the double purposes OF greatly

SHnRr HELGHT PACKAGES.

IF grocer uses scales that weigh short, he is
in danger of being hailed TO court and hned Tor
a misdemeanor. Yet if he stocks his store with
short packages with "ten pound" boxes OF
raisins for instance, Of which two pounds are
wood. glass and paper or quart bottles or
olive oil whose real measure is little more tnan
a pint, and If he does brisk business IN sell
ing thess goods at good profits, he wins the
praise which the world pays the prosperous.
But why does custom establish such distinc-
tons? Are they not palpably fallacious? Does
not the untrue package swiudle the public as
much as the untrue pair Of scalesE Should not
the customer when he asks for a pound of pro-
visions get a pound no matter whether 1t is
weighed before his eyes or taken down from
the shelf in the wrappings in which 1t was
packed at the factory? And if the retailer does
shift the blame to the wholesaler and the
wholesaler to the manufacturer, is the lIduu
any less a fraud?
To such extremes have dealers gone in push
ing the short package business that the more
observing Of them see danger ahead The state
of North Dakota, as told elsewhere in The IT'D
une this morning, has already taken up arms
against this form of swindling, and is prepar-
ing TO enact statutes to stop it. Other states
will probably soon follow this lead led
eral law providing that all package goods made
articles of interstate commerce should be marked
with the real weight Of their contents might be
useful and proper. Bottles should indicate their
actual capacity; and, as in Germany and
France. they should be marked by lines in the
glass so that customer at glance can tell
lust how much fluid one Of them contains.
A full package law, we believe, would have
the support not only Of the public, but also OF
the great majority of packers and dealers. Busi-
ness is crippled, not strengthened, by deceit and
trickery The average American wants a
square deal. both in business and in politics.
