Points

For canning peaches allow to every
eight quarts two pounds sugar and
three quarts water. Make a strip,
stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
Meanwhile peel the peaches, pack In
sterilized glass jars, making sure be-
fore you begin that your rubbers are
new and the tops OF the cans perfect.
Settle the fruit as you pack by shaking
the jar. FIJI the hot Jars with boil
ing strip. 1t will require about q pint
to each quart Jar. Adjust the glass
top half way Owe the Gar, but do not
put on the rubber. Set the Jars In
the oven in shallow pans half filled
with boiling water. Close the oven
door land the oven should be only
moderately warm) and cook the fruit
fifteen minutes.
Take from the oven. Having adjusted
the rubbers, fill each jar In turn with
the boiling strip, which should have
been kept hot on the back Of the stove.
Fill so full that the scalding liquid
runs over, then put on the top, wipe
and seal. Set the cans on a board or
thickly folded paper out of a draft
until cooled, when you can probably
tighten the top still more. This strip
does not make the fruit sweet. If you
prefer to have 1t sweeter increase the
proportions Of sugar. Peaches put up
this way in cans look better than when
cooked in a kettle, then dipped into the
can. When the peaches are large they
must be cut in halves, but leave In the
pits for flavor.

Boiled Fish.

If you always fry fish try boiling
it for a change. Cut three pounds
Of fish into thin slices and sprinkle
with salt. One quart Of water, one
fourth whole pepper, one tablespoonful
chopped onion, one tablespoonful chop
ped celery and one tablespoonful chop
ped carrot will be required. Clean fish
and let 1t stand in salt for an hour.
Put the vegetables in the water and
boil until the water is well favored,
then add the fish and let it simmer
until the fish leaves the bones. Place
on a platter and serve with slices Of
lemon and parsley. A white sauce
may be used If desired. Flavor the
sauce strongly with lemon.

But I do not mean that kind Of simplicity I mean the kind Id, that hat
seem to say "You wish to do m g a kindness. L thank you. L Will try
to honor you by accepting it as graciously rs you gave it, and some day i
shall hope to have my turn at being donor"
The blessedness and happiness of giving is lot a nora fiction. 1t is
a live fact. To balk it by a ungenerous reception is selhshness, there
fore.
/ ICE knew a girl-who for many years received al unusually good
salary Is a stenographer and had been layishly generous with her earn
ings, doing good in every direction, and enjoying to the full the bless
edness of giving. Reverses amt to her. Her health gave way and she
had tt give up her position and go back to her home In the country.
Some of her friends and Office mates, thinking it was a good OPP
portunHy to do by her as she had done by others, got together and made
up a purse which they planned to give to her on her departure s3
And she who had been indugng for years in the joy of giving re
fused 10 help others % do the same happiness. ~ @EA@#+@ ~
She Indignantly refused the purse, saying that when she needed
charity she would ask for it.
For, like many others, though pastmHtress in the art of gracious
giving, she did nt know the A, BIC Of the art of receiving.
Just al it is far easier to look down upon anyone with dignity than
to look up and still be dgnifed, so it is far easier to give with gracious
ness than to receive. a= 8sa4s+
But as he who has the true dignity may maintain 1t, n matter how
often the accident of height forces him to look up, SO he who has the
of position and possession forces him to give rather than to receive.

SAVE THE ROADS,

We note with considerable inter-
est that a new auto bus line has been
established between Ja%mesburg and
South River, running by the way of
Helmetta, Spotswood, Old Bridge
and thence over the long hill to con-
meet with the trolley to New Bruins
wick. This may be a success and 1t
may not. We doubt If there is suf-
ficient demand for travel over the
route here mentioned to warrant
such a line. 1t cannot help but be
convenient to those who do desire
to travel between the points men
toned, however.
But that is not the point we wish
to make. Our concern is for the
county roads. Anyone who has
travelled the highways of Middlesex
very much know that about the only
decent road we have today Is the n
from Old Bridge to J~amesburg. This
is a beautiful stretch and We doubt
if it can be surpassed anywhere in
the state. If this splendid road is
-+e-he turned over to the tender mer-
cfes Of the auto buses we fear for
It's (-condition at the end of the sea-
son.
We have no desire to in any way
interfere with the business of the
motor transportation company that
is backing this new line, but we do
think it a pity for the taxpayers to
spend large sums of money on the
roads only to have them torn up by
these great, cumbersome motors.
One has only to go over the road
between this city and Roosevelt,
through Sewaren, where these buses
have been running for several weeks,
to see the result. Already the peo-
pie of Sewaren are complaining. 1t
is no wonder. This road at the be-
ginning of the year was in COMPARE
lively good condition. Today it has
two great ruts and the stones are
loosened and torn up. The roads
will be sadly in need of repair be-
fore fall. In fact, If it is to be
saved. It should receive attention at
op~e. 1t seems a shame, when one
realizes the fine condition of the Old
Bridge-Jamesburg road, to think
that that, too, is likely to be put in
the same condition within a short
time.
We realize that the motor buses
are a great convenience. This is
especially true to a place like Roose-
fCit WASlS thS PCoRiO nave iittiC
chance to get away during the day.
The motor buses are being put in
operation everywhere and, in some
instances, they are more popular
than the trolley. They certainly
form another problem for the
authorities that have our highways
In charge.
There is no question about the
wear occasioned by the buses.
Whether or not the transportation
companies are to be allowed to con-
tinue using the highway in this
n without compensation re-
mains to be solved. 1t is evident
that If the roads were not in such
good condition the buses could not
be operated. Then, as a good fare
is charged for riding, the companies
ought to be willing to pay their share
toward keeping the roads up. 1t
goes without saying hat this share
would be a large one.

RAILROAD
OFFICIALS
ON CARPET
SOUTHERN PACIFIC AND COOS
BAY TRANSPORTATION COM
PANY TO EXPLAIN CAUSE OF
DELAY TO DELIVERY OF
MENT.

Because of their objectionable de-
lay in the transportation of the
hosuehold goods of G.. c. Gresor
from Marshfield to this city, delay
that has extended from July till
the present time, the officials of the
Coos Bay transportation company
and the Southern Pacific Railway
company, both owned by the Harri-
man system, have been summoned
70 appear before the railroad COM
mission this afternoon to give an ex-
planation of their conduct with re-
lation to the matter.
When Cresor shipped his goods
from Marshfield it was with the un-
derstanding that he was paying the
freight through to this city. After
waiting for some time for their ar
rival, he wrote the company con-
cerning them and it advised him
that the delay was due to the team
sters strike in Portland. Subse-
quently he received a letter from
the Homan Transfer company, Of
that city, advising him that there
were additional freight charges, and
storage on the. goods which amount
ed to almost as much as the original
freight bill, and that upon them be-
ing paid the goods would be shipped
He sent money covering the amount
and though 10 days have elapsed, he
has received no word from the conf
pany, nor any goods. Feeling that
he was no longer able to cope single
handed with the companies, he took
his case before the commission,
which upon being advised of the
facts, Immediately summoned the
officials to appear before it and
make an explanation.

That l played it as lately as yester-
day.

running and free,
And the hills were high-rolling like
waves on the. sea
Now up and now down, rolling off
to the sky,
And there with the heart of ME, sing
ing was l.
The spirit of June was abroad in the
breeze,
And the shadows wove tapestries
under the trees
Bright tapestries fashioned in beryl
and jade
All me! and the music the mocking-
bird made.
The wild-rose was blooming and Won
drously fair,
And the droning of bees was intoned
in the air.
Heigho! how the heart of a body
can sing

ferent thing.

The Philippines resemble all Latin

Spain and Italy, in the pomp of their
festivals. A fiC sta means properly a
holiday, and cn that day Filipino
will almost beggar himself to afford
suitable entertainment for the horde
of relatives and friends who flock in
On him from all quarters.
At large town south of Manila,
where the writer is situated, the
fiesta was celebrated the 31st of
last May. The celebration began two
days beforehand with the advent of
four uniformed brass bands with
four wonderful drum majors, who
marched their men up and down
through the streets, continuously
pouring forth strains of more or less
sweet and blatant music. The en-
deavor of each band was to drown
out the noise of the other bands, for
the successful band was to receive a
large prize from the music commit
tee at the close of the fiesta Though
the day was warm even for May, the
hottest month of the year in the
Islands, large crowds followed their
favoRte bands around, few of the
well-to-do in native carriages, and
two parties of young men about
town distinguished themselves by
hiring the two automobiles which
the town can boast Of
That evening and for the follow
ing week the richer families of the
town gave dinners and bales, as the
dances are called, to the more dis
tinguished people present for the
fiesta, while the humber visitors
went to the public dance hall at 10
cents a head.
One remarkable featurs about the
crowd which attended the various
exercises was the good order and
lack OF noise This was especially
notable on the evening OF the fiesta

AVIATION MEET
TO BE HELD IN
BELMONT PARK
TINTED PRESS LEASED w1RE.l


New York, Aug. 5.-Plans for the
national aviation meeting to be held
in New York in October are today
completely changed. Instead of the
meeting being held in Garden City
park, the flights will be seen in Bel
mont park, and there will probably
be a general change in the program.
The subscription committee in
charge of raising $25O,0OO for the
meet announced that Belmont park
would be more suitable in every way.
The withdrawal of Gage e, Tarbell
general manager of the meet, from
his position is also announced.
According to one of the experts
interested in the coming meeting the
change will make it impossible to
hold the international contest on the
program, the race for the second
prize. The size and shape of Bel
mont park, it is said, will make it
impossible for the aviators to con-
form with the international rules for
this fight.

REHEARING
MEYERS CASE
TO Be ASKED
DISTRICT ATTORNEY M'NARY
WILL OFFER SUPREME COURT
SOME AUTHORITIES ON POINT
OF REVERSAL IN HOPES OF
SECURING CHANGE OF OPIN-
ION.

District Attorney McNary this
morning announced that he conten-
plated filing with the supreme court
a petition for a rehearing in the case
of the State of oregon against George
Meyers who was convicted and sem
fenced to life Imprisonment for the
murder of Thomas Eckhart, and
which judgment was reversed last
Wednesday by the supreme court.
Under the rules of the supreme
court the state is allowed 20 days in
which to prepare and file it's petition,
and the district aLUorney indicated
this morning that he would ask for
no extension of timeb as this would
be sufficient. The supreme court re-
versed the judgment of the lower
court on the ground that the testi-
mony given by Sol Anderson at the
trial was inadmissable, and so high
ly prejudicial to the defendant that
It was considered reversible error.
The district attorney hopes to be
able to present authorities on this
question which will cause the court
to change it's opinion.

Where Dickens Saw Toole Act.

An interesting story attaches TO
the Alexander Institute, Carter
street, Walworth, recently advertised
for sale, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
1t was in this shall, formerly the Wal
worth Literary and Scientific Insti-
tute, that j. L. Toole scored some If
his earliest successes as an amateur
actor, and it was there that he was
"discovered| by Charles Dickens in
the spring of 1852. Some of Toole's
friends, impressed by the young
mans talent, besought Charles Dick
ems to see him act and advise him
as to his future career.
Toole himself, writing half a CEN
tury later, thus recalled this mo-
mentous event in his career. In
company with Mark Lemon and John
Foster, Dickens paid a kindly visit
to the Walworth Literary Institution
for the purpose of seeing him act
and reclte in the monologue Trying
a Magistrate" Dickens was strong
in his expressed opinion that his vo-
cation was the stage, and the stage
only.
