WAY ONE MAY UTILIZE
THE OLD EMPTY TINS

" HERE is a use for everything. and
even empty tins have many uses
= apart from the generally accepted
ones of recepta cles for buttons nails and
odds and ends
An empty coffee tin is excellent 10 re-
place a sponge bag when travelling. \
pound tin will hold nail brush. flannel
and sponge. and you will find it cheap
and waterproof. If you add a coat of
enamel. the sponge tin becomes quite
decorative. but remember to leave a plain
piece of tin at the top. as otherwise the
coat of paint will make the lid fiji too
tightly.
Sirup tins make capital little flower
pots when artisticaIly enameled: and fill
up dark corners admirably. Flat sided
mustard tins are invaluable for decora-
ton. They must be painted dark oak in
side and out. care having been taken to
ascertain If they are watertight. Being
fiat. they can be nailed into otherwise i'm
possible corners and are hardly discernble
from the actual woodwork. Flowers and
moss last wonderfully in these tins.
Another idea for an empty tin is TO use
it for a bottle tidy. Some medicines, par
ticuarly those containing oil. are apt.
when set down. TO leave an unsightly
mark. Keeping the bottle in tin OBJ
viates this. and. after taking dose the
medicine itself remains hidden until the
next time.
Tins can also be adapted for corner wall
decorations in rooms by joining three
enameled ones together and utilizing them
for the display of tall grasses, ferns and
long-stemmed flowers.
Select the tins and bore holes in them
near the tops. through which run and
twist wire to keep them firmly together.

PERFORMING MILK
IMPORTANT PROCESS

~ EPTONIzING milk is a process that
r every young mother should under
/ stand. because not infrequently
after an illness where baby's digestion
has been seriously affected prepared food
Is ordered.
To peptonize milk strong heat, pancre-
attic acid extract and bicarbonate OF soda
are necessary.
For a pint of milk fifteen grains Of bi-
carbonate of soda and five OF pancreatic
extract are required They are mixed in
half a cupful of milk. and this is added
to the pint, stirring and blending.
This work is best done in a covered
preserve jar. which is then placed I'm a
kettle Of water at lis degrees Fahrenheit.
The kettle should be tightly covered to
keep the temperature the same. and II
should stand at 115 for two hours. Should
it be modified, all the ingredients, except
ing the bicarbonate of soda, should be
added
Standing in heat for two hours COM
pleteiy peptonizes milk That which Is
only partly done need not stay in the
kettle of water longer than fifteen or
tH enty minutes. To prevent its going
through the whole process later 1t is safer
to scald it at the end Of fifteen minutes.
thus stopping all action of the acid and
soda.
That which has been wholly tire ated has
a bitter taste. but ii is not disagreeable
to little baby. and an older one is sim
ply obliged to become accustomed to It.
Partly peptonized milk has really no
flavor.
When baby Is to be put back to his reg
ular food unpeptonized. the change must
be gradual This is done by lessening the
amount of powder and soda. and shorten
ing the time the fluid remains in hot
water.
To put baby on this food without ply
sician's orders is a great mistake. for 1t
is capable eventually Of paralyzing his d.
sestive organs through inaction.

Beehive Hats Are Effective Models

THE hat With a beehive crown is new.
and as the brim Is a sensible width
the hat will be more generally becom-
ing than some OF the new styles.
Only those who are quite sure of the
hecomngness of such a style should at
tempt 1t. for on the wrong person this
kind of hat looks like a model worn ten
years ago.
The trimming that is used is very much

Governor Sparks message was read.
In the senate an appropriation bill
for the session was passed. The only
important acton taken was the pas

that may be introduced relative to
state rangers, constabulary or mill
tary, to a special joint committee.
The governor will from day to day
send any special message that be-
comes necessary.
There was no attempt to introduce
any measures in the assembly, and
from the acton Of yesterday it seems
that the senate will take the lead in
the matter of attempting to regulate
affairs between the miners and the
unions.

sage Of a state ranger law similar to

SAYS CORTELYOU
VIOLATED LAW
SENATOR CULBERsON DEMANDS
INFORMATION ON BOND
ISSUE.

Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Cul-
berson yesterday again brought up
the question of the recent bond issue
resolution calling on the secretary OF
the treasury to inform the senate as
TO the amount of circulating notes is
sued by each national bank to which
was awarded the new Panama bonds,
which notes were issued in conse-
quence Of such awards.
Mr.. Culberson said that act OF con-
gress provides distinctly and une-
uuivocally'' that the bonds may be
disposed Of at not less than their par
value under such regulations as the
secretary of the treasury may pre-
scribe giving to all citizens of the
United States an equal opportunity
to subscribe therefor"
Not only that" he added, the cir
cuIar of the secretary contains this
statement:
II considering the bids bidders
offering the highest prices viii re-
ceive the first allotments.'
Il desire" said Mr. Culberson, TO
submit to the senate one CT two facts
which indicate that the secretary OF
the treasury has violated the law in
issuing the bonds he has awarded.
Mr. Aldrich objected to the resolu-
ton, asserting that another one, pre-
viously adopted. covered the points
raised It went over.
Debate in the House.
No sooner had the house resumed
consideration of the bill TO codify the
penal laws than amendments began To
be ,offered. Mr. Wilson of Pennsyl-
vania moved TO .strike out the whole
of section 40 which prohibits any one
from inducing an artifcer or work
man employed at any arsenal or army
post 10 leave that service to enter pri-
vate employment
Mr.. Hull of Iowa, chairman Of the
committee on military affairs, declared
that in time of peace the government
was preparing for war. The amend
ment he said, sought to destroy the
ability Of the government to care for
its defense. The amendment was lost
by vote Of rs to 104.

of the union carmen who have been
on strike since last May have APP
piled to the United Railroads for work
within the last two weeks, in other
words, the car strike that has for so
long been in progress in this city,
while not officially declared off, is for
all pract.c cal purposes over. Neither
the Garments union nor the San Fran
cisco labor council has taken any &C
ton in reference to calling off the
strike, and in the absence of official
action the strike is considered still in
progress. But the executive COM
mittee of the union has granted per-
mission to and advised the striking
members to resume work with the
United Railroads whenever it can be
procured.
The result is that the street railway
companies have more applicants for
positions than at any time since the

Very few ever acquire the art OF
putting things so graphically, concise
ly, briefly, and transparency that any
one can comprehend them easily and
be interested in them.
A recent report of western govern.
or to the Secretary of the Interior
contained two hundred and twenty
five words, which would be equal in
volume to two large novels. It's great
length defeated the very object for
which ii was intended. No one would
read it through. The governor even
took the trouble to print primary
school lesson by including in the re-
port description of the geographical
situation of his state. The essential
idea Of this wordy document could be
put into a pamphlet without any loss,
and with the enormous advantage Of
making the report simple, clear, con.
else, readable, available, and much
more effective than in its present
form.
The president twice returned to
congress, for condensation, the Bris-

Seventy-eight thousand words were
