AT THE FIRST MEAL
SOME GOOD BREAKFAST TABLE
SUGGESTIONS.
Coffee Tastes Better II Made at the
Moment Required = Hot Water
Dishes to Keep the Food in
Condition.

Here are some suggestions for the
breakfast table that may be of use:
Coffee will be much better If 1t Is
made right on the table. There is
Viennese coffee pot which comes in
copper or nickel. This is furnished
with it's own alcohol lamp, which boils
the water as it percolates through the
coffee.
The coffee can be made any desired
strength. If the machine is started
with boiling water coffee can be made
in from ten to 10 minutes.
Tea should also be made on the
table, you can then be sure that the
water is freshly boiled and that tho
tea does not stand after being made.
There are some china teapots tnat
have a sievelike pocket in the top to
hold the tea leaves. The boiling water
is poured through them as many times
as is necessary. The tea when made
remains the same strength, as the
leaves do not steep in II.
Food should be served in hot water
dishes. These come in all sizes and
at all prices.
The handsome Sheffield pieces have
a covered dish on a stand, hot water
dish underneath it and an alcohol
lamp that fits into the stand to keep
the water hot
These, of course, will last a life
time and are expensive, but there are
plenty of others that will answer as
well and that are quite reasonable
Food will keep hot in these covered
dishes for surprising length of time
and does not dry up, as 1t does when
put in the oven or over the stove II
you want to have a comfortable hot
breakfast have several of these dishes
in use.
China eggcups come with hollow
bases, in which hot water is poured
A soft-boled egg, when not, is appe'
tizing. but it never Is by the time y
is prepared in the ordinary eggcup,
If you like your dry toast crisp it
should always be served In toass
rack Putting it on a plate and Gov
ering it up makes a steam that spoils
1t.
The Juice of an orange squeezed into
small glass cup makes a very good
fruit course. Many hurried man Will
drink his orange juice to his pleasure
and profit who would not stop to have
an orange that he had to prepare him
self.
After all, it pays to give the FAMILY
good start In the morning and
good hot breakfast is a great help.

HOME MADE DRESS BEST,
More Economical and Better Fit Can
Be Obtained.

The idea entertained by our grand.
mothers that no ready made dress
could compete with one made at home
is an idea that Is steadily gaining
ground at the present II certainly
is the more economical to make girls
clothes, as in no other way they OBJ
tain durability, style, and, most OF all
proper fit. A dress which has been
bought ready made surely can be made
to serve the purpose and to really
look NICE, but one which IL made at
home is exactly right, as It Is made to
fit one certain figure.
In making a dress great thought and
study should be given to the choosing
OF the pattern. DO not choose pat.
tern which IL so elaborate that only
the tlinnest goods could be made af-
ter IL when the material you wish 10
make up is heavy and bulky, The pres
ent and sensible fashion for making
the one piece dresses for all girls
under 1G simplifies the problem.
Smart simplicity also reigns at pres
ent, which is joyful news to the moth
ers OF large families. The Japanese
and kimono effects are extremely cyi
dent in children's garments, both
dresses and coats. and they certainly
add touch of smartness aside from
the fact that they are as easy TO make
and fit.

To Sew on Hooks and Eves.

To sew on hooks and eyes to the
band of a skirt place the eye on the
right side of the band with the loop
at the end of the band. Hold firmly
and sew over and over through the
little rings on the eye. The little rings
may be buttonholed to the material
covering the metal If one desires. On
the under side of the band at the end
opposite to the eye and quarter Of
an inch from the edge place the hook
Sew through the rings in the same
manner as the eye is sewed, and
under the hook part put few stitches
to hold 1t down.

Canoes Are Liked,

Notable among the new jewelry are
the cameo effects. Those lovely white
or tinted carved heads on pinkish
backgrounds set in oval frames of
gold are highly esteemed for fastening
the lace collar or veil. Their quaint
ness perfectly fits the revival and
fashions of other days betrayed in
newest dressing.
Large single canoes form oval
brooches or lace pins. Others of
small size are set in rows of four or
five to form bar bins. Pretty indeed
are the stickpins with small cameo
heads and the studs consisting of a
pair of canoes.

President Roosevelt's earnest
desire that four battle ships be
provided for at this session will
not receive the approval of the
House Committee on Naval AT
fairs. While it has taken no
vote on this proposition, there is
authority for predicting that the
committee will recommend the
construction of but two of these
battleships. The warning of
Chairman Tawney, of the Com
mittee on Appropriations, re-
garding the certainty of a heavy
deficit and the prospect of de-
creased revenues during the next
fiscal year is having a tendency
to compel the party leaders to
hold down the appropriations. 1t
seems assured, however, that
the proposition to cut the pro-
posed battleships from four to
two will be strenuously opposed
by the Democratic members.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

The main topic of interest in
Washington this week is the sus-
pension of the Public Printer,
Charles A. Stillings, by the Pres
ident, which amounts practically
to a removal as the facts already
disclosed will preclude the possi-
bility of his reinstatement. That
powerful concern, the Audit Sys-
tenn, is still on the salary roll,
but its days are numbered and
under a clause of it's contract it
may be terminated upon one
weeks notice, and that notice
has already been given. While
the government probe is to go to
the very bottom of things, no
sweeping changes are contem-
plated by the Acting Public Prin-
ter Brian who is proceeding with
deliberation and care to acquaint
himself with the actual conditions
now existing. He desires to have
the business of the great estab-
lishment conducted in an orderly
manner while the investigation
is in progress.
Senator Lodge assured the
President, this week, that he and
his colleague Senator Crane did
not stand for Public Printer Still
lings and that while they ac-
quiesced in his appointment, they
now believe it was not a good one
and they both favor the investi-
cation of the Government Print
ing Office that is in progress.
The Central Labor Union,
through it's executive committee,
went before President Roosevelt
following the removal of Mr..
Stillings, and made additional
charges against him. The charg-
es were filed with the President
and by him turned over to Mr..
Rossiter for hearing. These are
that the Public Printer was gull
ty Of violation of the eight-hour
law and two or three other sta
tutes governing the office of the
Public Printer.
Congress was honored this
week by the President and Mrs.
Roosevelt, who held the third
state reception of the official sea-
son complimentary to that body,
and seldom has there been a
more brilliant Congressional re-
ception. A large contingent OF
the diplomatic corps and a ellen,
tele of New York guests also
added to the reception. AS the
function was complimentary tt

The Political Outlook.
BY LEO.

nomination. Probably four re-
publicans out of every five are
for him rather than for his COM
petitor, Senator Foraker.
The Senator will probably cease
from troubling when he becomes
thoroughly convinced that furth-
er opposition to the will of the
majority will be futile, and in
furious to himself. Senator For
aker is a shrewd man, and a cum
ming politician, and for that very
reason we look for him to do what
he said he would IF the State
wants Secretary Taft shall sus-
tain him myself" Let him do
that and he will regain some of
his old time prestige and popu-
larity. Any how, there is no
future for Senator Foraker save
in the republican party, and none
there, if he will persist in his
antagonism to the will of the
party. Let it be granted that
the Senator has many enthusias-
tic friends in Ohio, still they are
toe few to sustain his ambition at
this time. The republican masses
in Ohio are bent on pushing Sec
retary Taft to the front at this
time. Foraker, if up to his usual
sagacity, will, sooner or later put
himself in harmony with the
party in Ohio. Therein is his only
hope for reelection to the Senate.
It is hard for even a brilliant
senator to Kick against the
pricks." Taft, as it looks now,
is bound to be the republican
nominee. There is no other can
didate in sight with a prospect
so fiattering. "Favorite sons"
there are, as always: but none Of
them have anything like a ma
tional backing. Mr.. Hughes of
New York, is the second choice
of many: but first choice of New
York only. Why not combine the
two making the ticket, Taft of
Ohio and Hughes of New York?
On the democratic side OF the
house w. ]. Bryan has no rival.
He is the whole thing. If he de-
sires the nomination of the Den
yer convention he can have it
without begging for it. His pop
ularity is greater than that OF
any other democratic leader in
the country, They accuse him OF
being a poor sort of democrat-a
populist in fact-well, it may be
so, still he can catch more demo-
cratic votes than any other man
in the democratic party.
Will he withdraw from the
race? We think not. There is
no good reason for so doing. If
the democrats can elect any one
they can elect Bryan. And,
therefore, there is no real need
of his stepping aside that the
party might try some one else.
Four years ago they tried some
one else and Jared badly. Is
there need of another disastrous
experiment?
Oh, no, let Bryan run again.
It will do no harm to the country
and none to himself. Harm to
him? It does him much good
