UF Mrs. Jones-Smith is sending out
invitations for her daughters
wedding and you fail to get a
card, though YOU went to school with
that daughter, do not run over to
Mrs. Blank-Dash's and tell her what
YOU think OF the ungrateful Jones'
Smith set. Perhaps after the bitter
words are spoken Mrs Jones-Smith
may call YOU up by phone and tell
you that the full quota Of envelopes
did not accompany the Invitations
and as you were one OF the old family
friends your invitation was held up
day And, what is more, you must
be sure to come over TO the dinner
given to Myra's wedding party,
OF course. Mrs. Jones-Smith should
either have seen that the full COM
plement of envelopes was delivered
or held up her invitations a day, but
you We're as hasty as Mrs. Jones'
Smith and less eXcusable. You will
now try TO take back what you said
to Mrs. Blank-Dash, but already she
has gone down TO market and repeat
er your sharp speech to her dearest
friend, Mrs. Nathan Brown-and
there you are, all in a stew for the
lack of. little self-control. &

CAKES
RY MRS. KINGsLEY.

A LII breakfast cakes should bo

"A plates. They are best If made
after the family Is at table, for the
least standing produces the leathery
quality which makes them so indi-
gestlble. A hot cake, lightly made
and deftly cooked, is as digestible as
any breakfast food to the average
stomach.
When cooked a thick iron griddle
must be used and a good way TO
grease this is to smear 1t with rag
lightly touched with fresh butter. II
grease OF any sort Is lavishly used the
cakes will be fried OF tough con
sistency, and without the delicate
taste required Maple slrup, strained
honey and brown sugar are proper
sweeteners for any cake, but these
must be put on only after the deli
cacy has been buttered. Never turn
the cake over until one side has

Sour milk griddle cakes-Take

teaspoon OF salt, two cups of sour

griddle and when puffed up and

one-half cups of fine stale bread
crumbs, one and one-half cups of
scalded sweet milk, two tablespoons
of butter, two eggs. one-half cup of

TOWEIING

and conventional mat ial. Crash
and huck toweling make a likely
foundation for openwork and em-
broidered pillow tops, The former Is
more durable and less flimsy than

out readily, It is suitable for all
kinds OF drawn work. IL Is also the
next best thing TO burlap or denim
for stenciling, and can besdyed many
pretty shades with home dye-stuffs,
such as sumac, indigo, and strong
coffee.
Crash toweling, double hem
stitched all around and embroidered
with No. 80 linen thread, makes a
neat,and trim dresser scarf, and loose
and coarse weaves being now 80 pop
ular II, would accord with the general
dictates of fashion. It launders
beautifully, and looks fresh much
longer than swiss, lawn, or linen, nor
does II wrinkle or slide out of place
as easily. In wearing quality it is
superior to everything except linen,
Mats for the. buffet or sideboard could
be made in the same way.
Huck or linen toweling has been
used for making wash belts. Strips
OF necessary width and length are
cut of parallel to the edge. They
maybe hemmed, laid double, or seal
lop edge embroidered. Have some
pretty design stamped on, and work
with cotton or linen thread. IL you
have q little artistic skill you might
try an original design with lead pen
Gil, and then have your belt laund-
erered before wearing. A sample
belt of this kind was folded double
with aiseam running along the cen
ter on the inside, and four leaved
clOvers embroidered in white at one
inch intervals on the outside. The
buckle was of white pearl, and the
eyelets buttonhole stitched. Turn
over collars and cuffs to match the
belt would be tasteful accessories
where linen shirt waists are much
worn.
Ecru, crash, and buck toweline
have also been ,used as fllllng for
screens, especially suited for the bed
room or dressing room. Diamond
shapes, about eight inches across
were cut out and set together with
cluny insertion. When the pieces
had attained the right dimensions Il
was stretched into the frame, and
fastened on all sides to prevent sag,
ging and tapping. on the inside each
diamond was fitted with a little
pocket.

FIL!BuSTER IN the
HOUSE OF COMMONS
Exciting Scenes Mark Nineteen.
Hour Session.

London, March 11.-After a stormy
session of nineteen hours, in which
fisticuffs were narrowly averted, the
house of commons, affected with the
American filibustering germ, ad
adjourned at 9:55 a. m.
The filibuster was precipitated by
the Conservatives in the discussion OF
the revenue bill in an effort to pre-
vent the consideration of the lords
veto bill at this session. The climax
to the disorder came when Captain
Craig, Conservative, offered to assist
the speaker in ejecting the Irish
members for their interruption of the
Conservative speeches.
Instantly the Irish showed fight anC
Craig was invited to begin his ejec
tion.

dent Diaz, grows daily more gratified
as the intent of the administration in
dispatching 10000 troops to the Mex
lean frontier disclCses itself. He said.
The ideas regarding this matter
which President Taft is reported to
have expressed will have a further re-
assuring effect. | consider it quite
untrue, as reported, that representa-
tions have been made by responsible
persons to President Taft or to other
high officials in Washington of a gem
eral uprising in Mexico in the near
future, or that President Diaz' health
is precarious.
My government will protect not
only the interests of our own people
but those of foreigners as we'll.
ut is generally known that the in
surrectos in Mexico have smuggled
arms and supplies across the Texas
border. Obviously the stationing of a
large force of United States troops in
that section will lessen and probably
stop the smuggling altogether. The
presence of troops there will also have
decidedly salutary effect on the in
surrectos in Northwestern Mexico.
More than this | cannot believe that
the United States government con-
templates in the mobilization of
troops"

WERE: IN EXCESS
OF one BILLION
Appropriations Of Last Con-
gresS Summarized.
TAWNEY FAYORS CHANGE

ex-chairman of Committee Recon-.
mends That All Appropriations Be
Placed in the Jurisdiction of One
Committee - Claims This Method
Would Have Meant Large Saving
During the Last Congress.
Washington, March 11.-Appropria-
tions at the last session of congress
aggregated S1025, ,4S9, ,662. according to
the statements issued by former Rep
resentative James A. Tawney of Min
nesota and Leonidas F. Livingston of
Georgia. who were respectively chair
man and ranking Democratic member
of the house appropriations committee
in the last congress.
Mr. Tawney says this is less than
$1,000 900 in excess of the total esti-
mates of President Taft, on which the
appropriations are based, pays high
tribute to the executive for good faith
in scrutinizing estimates, and COM
putes that the surplus of revenues
next year will be not less than &c.,
$4,000, which, with any part of the
treasury cash balances, may be ap-
piled to the sinking fund.
Against this Mr.. Livingston says the
last session record demonstrated that
when the Democratic party comes into
complete control of the government.
this billion-dollar mark for one ses
sion's appropriations, established four
years ago at the first session of the
SiXtieth congress, cannot be substan.
TALLY lowered if lowered at ALL"
Would Consolidate Jurisdiction.
Mr.. Tawney renews his recommends
ton for the consolidation of the ap-
under a single committee of sufficient
size to be representative of all sec
tions of the country and of all branch
es of the public service. Eight com.
mittees now consider and report ap-
preparation bills and Mr. Tawney says
no reform is more important.
The committee on appropriations
which reports more than half of the
total appropriations Of congress, re.
ported during the first regular session
of the last congress sf6,933,925 less
than the estimates, while the appro
priations of all the other appropri.
ating committees, according to Mr.
Tawney, were S27,931, ,402 in excess OF
the estimates.
Mr.. Tawney contends. If this consol
idating reform had been effected. IL
would have saved $62 100000 at that
session alone.
