The ocean record held in Germany has
been beaten by the Lusitania. The tur
bine engines have come UP to the eX-
peCtatiOn Of their constructor. On the
first passage fogs and rebellious stok-
ers, combined with the natural stiffness
of new machinery, prevented the dis
play Of the Lusitania's full powers. On
the second westward passage the en-
gines ran smoothly and all parts of the
machinery, being now somewhat ac-
quatnted, worked well together Only
four days after the coast Of Ireland
disappeared the Nantucket lighthouse
was sighted and the whole run from
Daunt's Rock to Sandy Hook was well
under five days. The practicability of
the turbine, the oldest form Of steam
engine, has been established. The ex-
perts who scoffed at the idea Of using
anything but reciprocating engines for
boats larger than torpedo destroyers
and channel steamers must acknowl-
edge themselves in the wrong. Unless
Germany wishes to remain in the back
ground it will be necessary to build still
larger boats with more turbines. The
relation of speed in the new style OF
steamers to the consumption Of coal
has not been calculated and German
companies may conclude that the game
is not worth the candle, but unless
some unexpected development takes
place in the construction of marine gas
engines or in the wireless transmission
of power the boat which beats the rec
ord OF the Lustania will have to have
turbine engines. America has nc
transatlantic steamers to compare for
moment with the giants of the British
and German merchant navy. However,
the success Of the turbine opens up new
possibilities in the development of the
coasting trade and the passenger bust
ness on the great lakes. One of the fast
turbine steamers used on the English
channel would make the passage from
Chicago to Milwaukee as quickly as an
express train and would cut in two the
time between other lake ports. The
Asiatic possessions of the United States
could be brought several days nearer
if turbine engines were in use on the
transpacitic liners. The only question
is. Is time money? The owners of the
Lustania are to be congratulated on
the success Of their new venture When
the achievements Of Portugal, the an
cient LUsitania in the early days of
exploration are recalled it seems fitting
thai this steamer, destined to work as
much of a revolution in navigation as
the vessels of Vasco da CANA and
Prince Henry should bear the name of
that country.

An English physician has lately an.
nounced that people do not eat enough.
This is doubtless true of most women
for when the man of the house is away
they congratulate themselves on not
having to get regular meals, and be-
come nervous and irritable through
lack of proper food. American hus,
bands and American physicians have
long known this.

On Oct. 1 two important regulations
relating to foreign postage went into
effect. In place of the old rate for let
terS sent abroad, five cents for each
half ounce and five cents for each addt-
tiOnal half ounce or fraction thereof.
the new rate Is five cents for a whole
ounce and three cents for each additions
al ounce or fraction. The other regula,
ton puts into use the international
reply coupon. Hitherto an American
writing to England or France and wish
ing to enclose reply postage had to go
to special dealer and get foreign
stamps to enclose, our stamps being of
course worthless on letter mailed in
another country. Now all the post
offices under the Postal Union issue a
coupon which is redeemable at slight
discount in any country. A New York
err writing to a correspondent in Berlin
and wishing to prepay the reply en-
closes a coupon which costs him six
cents, and which can be exchanged mt
any German post office for German
stamps amounting TO five cents. The
discount goes to the treasury of the In

To Can Tomatoes for Frying.

Use glass jars. Wash jar with
clean cloth and soap powder (powie,
rather than soap, because more anti
septic(. Always rinse jars just o.
fore filling with warm water. Use nice
firm tomatoes, wash in cold water and
with a sharp knife trim out the stem
and any imperfections, and cut through
once. This makes two flat pieces with
skin on. Put a quart Of water ii a
granite or porcelain kettle. Lay pieces
in, skin side down, and let boil three
minutes. With care, the pieces can be
placed in jar whole, and when wanted
to use can be lifted out, rolled in flour
and fried In a hot skillet, in which
is a spoonful Of lard and one Of but
ter. Let brown, turn and brown Other
