The Washington herald., 1909-07-23

Replying TO the published statement
made yesterday that the women employed
in the Bureau Of Engraving and Printing
as printers assistants had made an APP
plication for an increase in wages which
had been turned down by him. Director
Ralph said that inasmuch as the matter
is entirely beyond his jurisdiction. he has
no power either to increase or decrease
the wages OF the printers assistants,
whose salary Is fixed by Congress.
His position in the matter. he said, was
simply passive one. and thus far no
friction has developed between himself
and the 1900 printers ana assistants en-
ployed in the bureau on the subject OF an
increase in wages.
He stated that although he was aware
the printers had organized a union known
as Branch No l2776. of the Federal Union
of Printers and Printers Assistants, with
the avowed purpose OF obtaining an in
crease in salary from $3.50 20 81 a day.
he did not know what steps had been
taken by them to get the desired raise.
as they had made no application direct
TO him. He thought 1t probable that they
would take the matter up with the Presi-
NNAlh anu tuutdfOE 10 get MIN 10 make q
recommendation 10 Congress. or else petit
ton Congress directly through the House
Committee on Appropriations
he stated further that as the salary OF
the assistants is fixed by act OF Congress
at the rate Of $3.50 a day, and that as
the bureau is operated on the same plan
as any other business enterprise, he
would not feel justified in recommending
the increase, as to do so would necessi-
tate raising the salary OF thte other $500
employees OF the bureau. which. he said
is out Of the question at present.
II is true, he said. that he had made a
number OF promotions recently. but that
they were for merit exclusively and con-
cerned all divisions OF the bureau alike,
no discrimination being made against any
class OF employees. Nor were the promo
tiOns confined TO superintendent OF di-
visions alone; on the contrary. they az
fected all grades alike. from the highest
10 THE lowest.
Director Ralph concluded with the
statement that the sum OF 100000. which
he recently turned back into the vaults
OF the Treasury could not have been
used by him, however desirous he might
have been Of doing so, 10 increase the
salary of the printers assistants. as the
amount was left over from the appropri-
alton for the fiscal year 1903.

Grants Leap.

1t is related OF Gen. Grant that one
real record that he made for himself
at the academy, the one time that he
excelled all his fellows, was at the
final mounted exercises of his gradual
ing class, when, riding a famous horse
named York, he was called upon to
clear the leaping-bar that the gruff
old riding master had placed higher
than mans head. He dashed out
from his place, smooth-faced,
slender young fellow on a powerful
chestnut sorrel, and galloped down
the opposite side Of the hall, turned,
and came directly at the bar, the great
horse increasing his pace as he
neared it, and then, as if he and his
rider were one, rising. and clearing it
with a magnificent bound. The leap
is still recorded at the academy as
Grants upon York When Grant
started out to do a thing he would do
it if it were in mans power. This was
the impression that he made upon
everybody, as ex-Secretary Welles
wrote in his interesting diary.

BABY HORRIBLY BURNED.
By Boiling Grease-skin All Came on

Used cuticura: No Scar Left.

my baby was sitting beside the

breakfast when the frying-pan full OF
boiling grease was upset and it went ali
over one side of her face and head.
Some one wiped the scald with a
towel, pulling the entire skin OF. We
took her to a doctor. He tended her

on. But it all festered and 1 thought

used about three boxes of Cuticura

Care in Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by it's purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-
nent1y as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest of
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying when
other brands are eaten. If you are
convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages; if not near the
store, buy the large size family pack
ages; if in a hot climate, the hermet-
tcallY sealed tins.

World Must Wait.

With but a word from Peary, tae
world must wait for details until he
can arrive at Chateau Bay, Labrador.
First word of Peary's success reach
ed New York at 1879 p. m. Sept. 9Th
in a dispatch to the Associated Press.
1t contained the bare announcement
of his finding the pole. Almost sim
ultaneously he had transmitted the
news to London, and at the same time
he advised the government OF New
foundland.
Both the old and the new world
were thus appraised of the great
achievement practically at the same
moment, and the excitement which
followed attests to the high pitch Of
interest aroused over this climax of
mans perseverance. Newspaper ex
tras were rushed from the press, and
those who read marveled at the twist
of the universe which had snatched
the ice mark from the north in sc
strange a manner. Peary resumed his
homeward voyage Immediately after
filing the curt news of his discovery

Pulled Bread.

Nothing is better to serve with sal
ad than pulled bread, and it is tasty
with cup of hot cocoa. When bread
is taken from the oven, CRATE off any
crust that seems hard or thick; then
pull apart into strips four or five
inches long and not more than an inch
thick at any point. Be careful to do
this without squeezing the soft crumbs
together. Lay around on pan and
set in a slow oven to dry out and
become a light brown. To be just
right the drying process should be
very slow and thorough. This bread
will keep some time in dry place
and should be reheated before serv-
ing

TO QUENCH THIRST
GOOD AND SATISFYING DRINKS
IN HOT WEATHER.
Constant GuIping Down of Iced Water
Is Mistake-Lemonade, without
Sugar, Probably the Best
of All.

How do you quench your summer
thirst? Probably unwisely Most of
US do.
Liquids are good for us if taken ju-
d1ciously; very bad for us if we fol-
low the usual American plan of gulp-
ing iced drinks, wholesale.
1t is folly to condemn iced water
1t is necessity in this country 1t
is not necessary to drink it as we do.
A glass of ice water slipped slowly not
only never hurts anyone, but more
quickly quenches the thirst than if
swallowed by the gobletful.
Above all do not gulp it when very
much overheated. A young girl did
THIS last summer and within few
hours was at deaths door with inflam-
nation of the stomach.
Thirst will be more quickly
quenched when very warm if one puts.
bits of cracked ice in the mouth and
lets them dissolve.
One young woman who is forbidden,
on account of diabetes, from drinking
much water, gets relief from her an
noying thirst by packing her throat
in cloths wrung cut of cold water.
She will sometimes renew the appli-
cation several times. She also moist
ems her lips with shaved ice over
which lemon has been sprinkled.
Though few believe it, thirst is
more quickly allayed in summer by
drinking hot water than cold. One
cup of the former will suffice where it
would be necessary to pour down sew
era1 glasses of iced drinks.
Most sweetened drinks create thirst.
Lemonade for this reason is not ad-
visable. Lemon and water, a half
lemon in tumblerful, is much better.
For the same reason plain ginger or
lemon soda is more satisfying than an
ice cream soda, if one is very thirsty.
Alcoholic drinks rarely quench the
thirst. For this reason and because
they are too overheating, they should
be taken sparingly in hot weather.
The boosted summer drink, mint jul
| lep, is only cooling for minute, in
tensely heating and thirst creating
| later.
Root beer that is not too sweet and
| is very cold is a better summer drink
than lemonade, as it allays thirst and
has a tonic effect Iced tea is prob
ably one of the most satisfying drinks
on hot day, when tormented by
that summer thirst"
