All DODGE Soup.

Soup is probably the most unpop-
ular dish in the luncheon menu of the
New York business girl today She
acknowledges that it may be nour-
ishing and all that, but it simply does
MT taste good to her. The only time,
so a down town business girl says,
that the girls she knows resort to
soup is when their finances are at a
very low ebb.
What would astonish you. though"
says this same girl, SIS the number of
mothers that think that their daugh-
tiers should eat soup every day, and
try to persuade them to do 1t. They
say soup is SO sustaining. Well, per-
haps it is. can't argue as to that.
But I know soup doesn't taste espe-
cially good. and doesn't make any
too good a foundation for an after
Moons work 1t would be different
If we could have soup, then a meat
dish, and then dessert; but very
few girls, tell you, can afford that.
$50 we all cut out soup Probably
it disgusts the dietician young wom-
en- just out Of college, but we all feel
we know what's best for us."-New

It while she cuts away the old putty.
Then the new pane Is set in and made
fast. Miss Aileen set out to accom-
plish this task.
Mid-afternoon came along while she
was still working. So did Phil Walker.
He was walking out from town for
exercise. He didn't know what house
his uncle lived In, and he decided that
the sensible thing to do was to make
inquiries. He rang the bell at the
Travis mansion, and as he rang he
wondered If that mighty cookbook
ing girl lived there.
No answer. He thought he heard
voices at the rear of the house. The
sensible thing to do was to go around
and find the owners. He found them.
Miss Aileen was standing on the
crest of the stepladder, sleeves rolled
up, old skirt on, and bareheaded and
her hair tousled and flying about.
That's the way glazier glazes.
The cook was hanging to the STEP
ladder like grim death and throwing
the stage setting was ready when the
young college man appeared. There
was a yell from the cook! There was
an exclamation from the mistress.
There was roar from the family
dog, who has been held back until this
moment to complete a dramatic stu
alton!
The cook let go. The stepladder
wabbled. Miss Aileen came down. Mr..
Walker stepped backward, and it
seemed to the dog as If the three
people were all mixed up for mo-
ment. Then he took after the one
who fed. nipped him and chased him
off the grounds and down the road,
where ex-Judge German. standing at
his gate, threw up his arms and
called out:
what villain has dared to set a
dog on my favorite nephew! Tell me
his name that l may give him seven
kinds of law!"
Phil thought he understood the case,
and when he got his breath he tried
TO explain. It was a case Of natural
cause and effort. Let any young man

So ex-Judge German wrote to his
nephew, Phil Walker, just before col
lege vacation. The Judge was a bach
elor sixty years old. who had bought
"a manor house on retiring from the
bench. He was alone except for his
servants. and Phil was his favorite
nephew.
Judge German had caught only a
brief glimpse of Aileen Travers as
she crossed the lawn of her mothers
grounds next door. Any lawyer could
have made a case Of false pretenses
out Of that letter, but Phil Walker
replied that he would be happy to
come. Miss Aileen Travers was Just
Two weeks ahead of him on vacation.
She had got home and settled down
for the summer before he was due.
When at home she was the man
about the house. She could handle
saw or hammer. and when the lawn
mower got out of killer she had q
way Of fixing 1t up instead of sending
1t on to town to be tinkered at. She

It's the easiest thing in the world
for smart and good-looking girl to

THIRD=MILLION
GOLD in STATE

The silver copper. and lead output Of
Washington seems to be slightly on
the increase. Some falling off has been
apparent in gold, but the amount has
not been large. Ferry. King, and Stew
ems counties are increasing their gold
output, but others are showing a de-
crease. The area of greatest possibil-
ties lies in the Republic district. where
a number of mines have recently been
reopened. The amount OF gold from
this district in 1909 will probably he
double the yield in 1908.
The director of the mint estimates
the gold production of Washington at
$4,000 in 1909, against s253,7OO in 'oS,
and the silver output at 1880 fine
ounces in 1909, against $500 fine
ounces in 1908.

all combs examine them carefully, the
edges must be even and straight and
not split at the ends, which tears the
hair dreadfully.

tant factor in keeping both the scalp
and hair in good condition
After using combs and brushes wipe
them on soft cloth, this helps to
keep them clean. Two or three brush

when one is soiled another is at hand
to take its place. A thorough wash
ing twice week in soapy water, with
drop or two of ammonia, will keep
them clean and sweet. Rinse in tepid
water and stand on end in the sun or

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 1.-(Spe-
cial. 1.-The state of Washington has
been producing recently not over $780,
900 in gold annually, $4,000 to 10000
fine ounces of silver. 100000 to 100000
pounds of copper, and 1900 900 pounds
of lead. There has been little variation
from these figures for several years,
though it is expected that the output
for 1909 will make a much better
showing, mainly owing to an increased
yield from the Republic district. There
are about 60 or 20 productive mines
in the state, most of them being deep
mines. Stevens county is the largest
producer of gold. silver, copper and
lead, more than half of the gold of the
state coming from that county alone.

DENVER, Jan. 31.-James A. Baker
of AttieborO, Mass, and two women
whose identity is not known, were
killed and Russell A. Talbot of New
York was fatally injured tonight
when a trolley car crashed into the
automobile in which five persons were
riding. Morris Mayer, owner of the
machine, who was at the wheel, was
stunned but suffered only minor in
juries.
The machine in which the party was
riding was speeding along South
Broadway at a furious rate, running
between the street car tracks. Cars
were approaching from both direc-
tons and in an effort to avoid the
north bound car, Mayer tried to cross
the track. The machine skidded on
the rail and Mayer instinctively set
the brake to keep from going over.
The southbound car crashed into the
machine from the rear, completely de-
molishing it. Talbot and Baker, with
one of the women, were in the back
seat
The woman's head and body was
crushed to pulp and Baker had num-
Der of bones broken. Both were dead
when picked up. Talbot suffered Sc

SILVER IN THE
i. s. LAST YEAR

souri,, New Mexico, Texas and Wash
ington.
The market for silver in 1909 offered
little encouragement as a largely IN
creased foreign output, especially from
the Cobalt district in Canada, was in
competition with the domestic produc-
ton The failure of India to buy as
largely as usual was only partly Of
set by better sales to China.
From estimates of the bureau of sta
tistics, the imports. nj 1909 were valued
at s30,332,OSS for silver in foreign ore,
12,431, $50 for silver in foreign bullion,
and $2,967,76S for silver in foreign coin.
During the same year exports of sill
yer were valued as follows: Domestic
ore, $640.647; foreign ore, $6S,27S; do
nestle bullion, $54,336, 9O4; foreign bull
lion, $1,223,426 United States coin,
$570,S31. The value of silver in excess
of total exports over that of imports
in 1909 was therefore $11,279,33S. The
imports of silver were chiefly in the
form of ore and BULLION and came
largely from Mexico and Canada, about
twice as much from Mexico as from
Canada. The exports consisted almost
wholly of ore and bullion, and went
chiefly 10 the United Kingdom, al
though important shipments were made
also to Hongkong direct and to
France.
