The election is to decide whether th present mayor, Hiram c. Gill, shall be made to give up his office Charges Of corruption in the police department and unre- strained vice evils were made the grounds of the recall petition.

Dnling, who is the candidate of the Welfare league, representing the re- form element. The campaign haS been one of intense bitterness.

Household Hints.

Very little water should be used in washing oilclo,h. as some of. it win seep through to the cloth beneath and rot it. Use a flannel cloth well wrung out and wipe the floor until clean salsoda will aid greatly. Wipe the white spots caused by spilling any hos liquid on the oilcloth with a few drops of spirits of camphOc.
 To sweep stair carpet hold a dust pan under each step and brush with a whiSk broom.
 Freshly spilled ink on carpets may be removed by taking up as much as possible with spoon, then pouring on cold water repeatedly. taking it up with a spoon Lay cloth around the spot so it will not spread Then apply weak solution of oxalic acid. spong- ing thls up quickly, and if the color is altered apply ammonia water
 Black lnce may be sponged with green tea and wound around a bottle to dry. Be careful not to place it near fire. as 1t will make the lace look rusty.
 To remove wine stains sprinkle the spot when the wine is spilled with salt and you will find that the stain will wash out quickly; otherwise spread the spots over a bowl and pour on boiling water with force.

RECORD OF WORK AGAINST THE
 PLAGUE

Simultaneously with the announce ment of its next annual meeting in Denver June 20 and 2l. the National association for the study and pre- Vention of tuberculosis presents sta tistics in a bulletin issued today, which shows the results of the cru sade against consumption in the United States for the past ten years.
 The seventh annual meeting of the National association in Denver will be held just before the annual meet ing Of tb American Medical assOcia- ion in Los Angeles. The tubercu- lOsis workers convention will be d. yided into three sections under the direction of Dr. William II. Weleh or Baltimore, president Dr. William Charles White of Pittsburg will be chairman of the advisory council of the association, which will meet at the same time. The three sections are. the sociological, with AleNan- der M Wilson of Philadelphia as chairman. the clinical. with Dr. Charles l.. Greene of St. Paul as chairman; and the pathological, with Dr. William Ophuels of San Fran cisco as chairman. The report of the executive secretary, Dr. Livingston Farrand. will be incorporated in a statement of the results of the cru sade against tuberculosis in. the United States for the last ten years, which will be transmitted to the in ternational congress on tuberculosis in Rome, next September.
 Dr. Farraud's report will show that ten years ago there was only one organization in the United States for the education of the public about tu- berculosis. the Pennsylvania society for the prevention of tuberculosis. By September. 1911. the national as- sociation says there will be over 800 such bodies Ten years ago there were but five special dispensaries or clinics for the examination and in struction of needy tuberculosis pa rients. three of these being in New York City, one in Boston and one in Providence. By September. 1911, the United States report will be able to list nearly 400 such institutions. fin 1000 there were less than 100 hos pitals, wards, and pavilions where tu. bsrcalosis patients could be treated with not more than 6500 beds. all told. The national association hopes to report by September at least 45q hospitals and sanitoria with an az gregate capacity of at least 30.00C beds.
 Commenting on these possibilities Dr. Farrand says that the education al campaign is directly responsible not only for the great growth in in stitutional provision but that it will also result in the next ten years iI striking fali in the death rate from tuberculosis He adds, What we need most at the moment i: more hospitals, more dispensaries and more visiting nurses. We ara workoiug for these definite ends, ana the next ten years will show results even more marked than those of th' decade just passed.

DINNER WITHOUT MEAT.
Aseendir9 Butchers Bill Has Some.
 thin9 to Do With 1t.

Ascending Butchers Bill Has Some
 thing to Do With 1t.
 A dinner without meat. especially in the winter time. is less of surprise to meat eaters than 1t used to be Only avowed vegetarian families whose names were written boldly in the Vegetarian society's records would once nave submitted to such a bill of fare. Possibly the family doctor who in season and out has preached Hess neat for some years is as responsible as any one person for the change in diet. Possibly the ascending butchers bills have had something to do with it. Whatever the cause, less meat is eaten now than ever before in the memory of persons who are living or of their immediate ancestors. But e vegetarian diet in a house where a variety of appetizing food is demand ed does not decrease the cost of liy- ing. To have variety without meat a well set table means vegetables out of season and quantities of nuts and fruits thar come high.
 At dinner served by a young housewife of advanced ideas the other evening the bill of fare included bean stew with dumplings, mock turkey, mashed potatoes, squash. lettuce salad with toasted cheese crackers. orange sherbet and coffee. For the stew the common white dry beans used for baking had been soaked the previous night and the next morning parboiled in water with little soda and then rinsed thoroughly, covered with water and stewed tender with a large onion and carrot. both chopped coarsely. q cupful of stalk celery cut fine and a red pepper cut in pieces. When the beans were soft they were seasoned with salt and black pepper and the dumphngs were dropped in- For the dumplings sift two eupfuls of -four with a couple of tablespoonfuls of baking powder and mix with half a cupful of milk. Drop the batter by spoonfuls into the hot stew. cover closely and boil for twelve minutes without raising the cover. Turn the stew into the middle of a deep platter and arrange the dumplings around the edge.
