DISCUSSION OF
 MERCHANT MARINE

New York, February "A five days convention for discussion of the subject )f a larger and more efficient American merchant marine was begun today in the Metropolitan Temple, with Rev. Dr. John Wesley HILL pastor, as presiding off cer.
 The idea of the convention is original with Dr. Hill who believes the church las a function to perform in advancing the material welfare of the country as we'll as the spiritual welfare. The prin- eipal speaker at tonights session was Congressman William E. Humphrey of Washington.
 Congressman Humphrey called atten- ton to the liberal policy pursued by Jap an in substituting her merchant marine md pointed out as a natural consequence the practical control of the commerce of he Pacific by that nation.
 T do not believe" said he that we are going to have war with Japan but my one who thinks that Japan has not he courage to make war or the finan- ial capacity to carry it out has not cad properly the history of this great lation."
 g simple matter in the event of war for Japan to land 100000 troops in the Phil ppines and 100000 in Hawaii before the United States could be able to start out Ter transports. Where Japan has $50

satisfactory, particularly if eyelet work and satin leaves are included.
 In making eyelets do not omit the under work, by this Is meant that each eyelet should be run with the thread used In embroidering 1t before piercing the goods with the stiletto.
 Leaves and stems should be padded carefully and smoothly, point many em- broiderers fall to makes~
 This smoothness is greatly remarked Tn French embroidery. For this padding the chain stitch is best and the needle should always be turned toward you, point well worth remembering.
 The chain stitch Is particularly good in filling, too, for buttonholing. and unless the scallop is unusually small, when the running stitch will suffice.
 The thread to be used in embroidery IS always a puzzling matter, but art de- partments in the various shops are now equipped with such clever authorities on this subject that one will make no mis- take in following their advice.

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION

The following prescription while very simple and harmless, will be found to work wonders in curing lame back and all kinds of rheumatism, purifying the blood and kidneys and restoring the sys- tenn to normal health and vigor. It is in expensiye considering it's effectiveness, and can be mixed at home. The ingredients are well known and can be supplied by any well-stocked drug store:
 'One ounce compound syrup of Sar- sanarilla; one ounce Toris compound. These to be added to half pint of whisky and used in tablespoonful doses before each meal and at bed time. The bottle must be shaken well each time"
 Good results from this treatment are a apparent after the first few doses, all though it would be mistake to dis continue it's use until the health is fully recovered.

Simple Cure For Muddy Com
 pleXion

That to the lack of cleanliness is due many cases of thick, muddy looking skin, is undoubtedly true as much as one may object to the unkindness of the state ment
 Of course this assertion must be taken without hurt feelings, as it applies only to the unitiated-those who do not know or realize the quantity of dirt that is accumulated on the face through the day, and what is more distinctly to the point-the proper method of getting rid of it.
 Water alone will not, cleanse. Some agent that will go down into the pores like soap or cold cream Is what is neces- sary after @ day in the dusty, dirty streets and thoroughfares. And 1t is pre- cisely because of the dust and grime allowed to remain in the skin night after night that causes the ugly black-heads and unsightly pimples, which everybody so much dislikes.
 One of the most cleansing of the many good preparations is liquid green soap, which Is the chemcially pure soap used in surgery, but it is so strong that an application of it once week is all that can be endured. Occasionally twice a week 1t may be applied, but only occasion ally.
 A soft brush used in applying it is bet ter than a cloth for, all belief to the contrary, the skin is anything but smooth.
 A brush will go into the pores and get the dirt out, whereas a cloth only glazes over the surface.
 A brush with stiff bristles should never be used, as that would be decidedly in furious to the complexion, and camel s hair brushes are considered the most de- sirable.
 The generous use of cold cream is ad- vised on the nights when the liquid soap is not used, and this should be massaged into the pores of the skin with the tips of the fingers, thus rubbing the grease thoroughly into the skin.

ROLL JELLY CAKE.

ROLL JELLY CAKE.
 Roll jelly cake is again gaining in favor, but some still hesitate about making it. thinking the process is difficult. The secret is in baking it quickly and handling the cake deftly after 1t comes from the oven. It should be turned from the large pan in whcih 1t is baked in thin sheet on to a good-slzed napkin, spread quickly with jelly, jam, eustard or chocolate, and then rolled up instantly. To keep the cake In shape, tie either end of the nap kin in which it is rolled with a piece of cord.
 An excellent recipe is this; Rub well one cupful of powdered sugar and three eggs. Add three tablespoonfuls of hot water. Next stir in a cupfpl and half of flour, in which 8 teaspoonful of flour has been sifted. Add last the grated rind of a lemon.

The Best Of Friends

There are no friends like old friends To help us with the load That all must bear who journey Ger life's uneven road; And when uneonquered sorrows The weary hours invest, The kindly words of old friends Are always found the best. There are no friends like old friends To calm our frequent fears, When shadows fall and deepen Through life's declining years, And when our faltering footsteps Approach the great divide, We'll long to meet the old friends Who wait on the other side.

Embroidery On Lingerie

Hand-embroidered lingerie is becoming more and more fashionable and fascinat- ing as the years go by. While the cost of these dainty articles is no small item, they may be fashioned at home by the woman who is clever with her needle and possessed of an average amount of patti ence.
 The work above all must be painstak- ing. To being beautiful this is the key note of embroidery. So perfectly is the character of an individual wrought into her work that many people study char acter, through this, rather than the read ing of ones palm. There are few rules to be followed in any or all kinds of em- brodery.
 First of all, the pattern must be care- fully selected and distinctly stamped.
 Simple patterns are invariably more

Preservation Of Milk

A German patent specification describes a process for preserving milk by remov- ing all dissolved oxygen by means of the addition of a small quantity of ferrous carbonate The process is based on the fact that freshly precipitated ferrous car bonate in the presence of oxygen imme- diately assimiliates oxygen and evolves an equivalent quantity of carbon dioxide. One part of ferrous carbonate as suffi- cient for 5o,00O parts of milk, and the properties of the milk are not altered in any way by the addition, which should be made before the milk is boiled.
