MRS. Ht1rY GREEN'S RECIPE
Says Good Conscience, Appetite
and Good VIII 10 Others viii
Promote long life

Mrs. llettv Green recently
gave an interview, the occasion
being her II birthday. She had
been asked how to live 10 be 100
years old.
i have never gone up into
the cob web, " said Mrs. Green
as she seated herself in a chair
beside the desk Of her son, Col.
+. II. X. Green, in their office,
III Broadway. you can rely
on me for the truth and com
mon sense. ] can tell you how
10 live TO be Il years old. -
But you are reported as be-
ing IS years old this morning she
was told. "
That was very nice Of the
newspaper boys. They did it to
make me feel good. Neverthe-
less, ! am II years Old, for | was
born IN 1894 ! am not ashamed
Of il really, am proud of it. To
live 20 any good old age, |
would prescribe for the young
people the possession of, first, a
good conscience second, a good
appetite for the best food plainly
cooked, and, third, good will
toward others. Ii they will fol-
low these rules they will live as
long as they want TO-.
Mrs. Green chuckled as she
united the strings of her bonnet
and said.
You ask me how | feel this
morning. Well, have the spunk
OF twenty men and feel five
years younger than on nv last
birthday. Much OF my present
good health | ascribe 10 the
presence OF my son, who is a
great help 10 me. -

AS TO THE LAW
Provision is made against
any apparent violation Of the
Sherman law, in that each State
committee appointed by the
Governor or Commissioner Of
Agriculture of each State has
the power TO name the date OF
sale if cotton reaches - cents
or l3 cents, which, according TO
testimony gathered, gives only
a close legitimate proilt on the
cost Of production.
"Of course everything depends
upon the acceptance of the pan
by the individual armer in con-
nection with his pledge TO reduce
acreage the coming year The
individual farmer alone can make
success possible.
The undertaking is tathered
by a number of bankers, Of
whom CoL X. NJ. Thompson is
head, he. being widely-known
bull of the firm of s. II. +. PeIl
a. Co.,. bankers and cotton men,
and all necessary machinery for
caring for the cotton has been
provided. The committeeman
here have been assured by a
number of the strongest banks
in New York OF a thorough back
ing Of these already strong in
terests.
The gentlemen here, as well
as President Barnett Of the
National Farmers Union. con
slider the plan acceptable 10 the
growers. and they are tonightre-
turning 10 their respect.

pie. and 81 1t be agreeable 70

ley Of Texas. who is here, has
been advising as TO the legal
aspects of the proposition. -
COMMENT BY WATSON
President Watson, comment
ing on the plan tonight said:
we have carefully considered
the whole thing ln all of its
phases. ] can't say what the
growers are going % DO The
financial end is strong II holds
out prospects OF fine results and
stops any effort at the corner
of the market IL seems 10
assure an honest price Tor cotton
and 10 saiepuard the commodity.
which is the very keystone of
American finance. Some one be-
sides the farmer may make
some money out OF II, but as
that IS done. the farmer Is being
assured several dollars baie
more than he would get under
the present lniquitous marketing
method. We are therefore will
Ing 20 submit and recommend
the proposition 10 our people.
and if they wish 20 accept il,
then help them 10 make II as ef-
fective as We can.
There Is no doubt that the
holding and reducing Of acreage
we have been push
ing so successfully has checked
the downward tendency OF prices
under the present hammering up
10 this time. So far. we nave
fought the battle unaded. now

Electrical Alarm
For Bathing Beach

The beach city Of Venice. CAL, has
completed and placed in service an
alarm system for life-saving, fire
and police service. Operating from
posts along the beach, fifteen alarm
boxes connect with the Ocean Front
bathhouse for summoning the life-
saving crew.
The annunciator at this station
has numbered buttons which be-
come lighted when the correspond
ing alarm box Is operated; in addi-
ton bell rings until the button is
pressed in response. For police
service the telephone and red light6
are provided, while the usual
equipment is employed for the fire
department
To insure protection against
moisture and other damage, the
wires are carried in cable, a total
OF about seventy-six miles of con.
ductor being necessary for the in.
stallation. All metal fixtures ex.
posed to the salt air are galvanized
to prevent corrosion. The system
cost approximately $4,000, and
based upon the cost of repairs fol
the former service, 1t is expected tt
pay for itself within a short period

Wreck Showed Heroism
of Wireless Operator.

The wreck of the steamship
Lexington, says an editorial
writer, developed an Oliver OPP
tic hero in real life in the boy
of sixteen who climbed the rig
ging of the doomed vessel to
flash the wireless call for help.
The storm having dismantled
the ships wireless equipment,
the daring lad clambered up the
mast, adjusted his instruments,
and from his perilous perch
summoned, the revenue cutter
Yamacraw to the rescue of the
sixty passengers and crew.
Apart from its romantic side,
this feat is interesting as show
ing the great extension in the
use at sea of wireless telegra-
ply and as affording new proof
of the character of the operat-
ors. Sciences new toy Of yes
terday has now become indis-
pensable to navigation. BY its
means spirits can literally be
called from the deep to the res
cue of shipwrecked passengers
and 1t has virtually removed the
worst risk of sea travel.

The office car of H. e. Chubbuck.
vice president executive Of the
Illinois Traction System, recently
completed a trip Of remarkable
length, over interurban railroads
of Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio. The run amounted to 1,624.3
miles, and the car was the first to
travel in the four States as named.

IN up-to-date grocer in New York
has recently added to his list OF
electrically driven appliances a 11s-
horsepower motor for driving a
churn. His patrons purchase cream
at the store and for a small charge
have it made into butter on the
spot. The method is not only an
excellent advertisement for the gro
Ger, but also instructive for the
children and others in the neigh
borhood.

Electric Lamp Makes
An Old Art Beautiful

The, designing Of glass shades
and globes to enhance the effect of
artificial lighting is an old art, and
Tiffany glass with its wonderful
blendings of color and tints has
long been. a source of Joy to lovers
of color and light. But, since the
development of the Mazda electric
lamp has made possible a soft,
white light which gives real life to
delicate colors and tints, this field
has broadened and many artists and
glass decorators are engaged in
designing beautiful glassware.
A visitor OF the electrical fixture
houses would reveal what has been
achieved in this line, for here the
display is equal to bit Of fairy
land, and II one had not previously
considered pure light and artistic
fixtures indispensable in home fur
nishing, 1t would at once become
the dominant thought.
The designers of these electrical
fixtures have provided for every
room, every style OF furniture,
every color scheme. The old es-
tablished Tiffany, with its designs
and deep colors blown in the glass
and the newer, very beautiful and
very delicately tinted, iridescent
ware known as Iris, makes a vari-
ETY. from which every one can
choose. -
Many of the art lamps, especially
for the library and living rooms,
are made in what Is called metallic
lusters: that is, different shades of
dull green, brown, blue, etc. A
lamp Of this kind, which seems a
very part Of the library, has a shade
of dull green and white very finely
veined. 1t is, Of course, made in
different shapes, and in sizes vary
ing from twenty to forty inches
high with widths according.
Then there are the flower and
fruit designs. which are especially
adapted to the parlor or dining
room.
AnSio oiO hoNClNy
for the piano, cozy corner, center
table, and for the innumerable
places where pretty lamp is just
what is needed. For single lamps
there is a small lily-shaped shade
made in golden amber, which is for
use when a dark color is desired OF
in harmony with the furnishings
For lighter colors, there Is a very
popular bell-shaped shade made oi
pearl, lined with gold. This com.
bination Of color is very effective
and is used extensively in variuos
designs.
The new. Iris glass has opened
new possibilities for decorative
lighting. It's iridescent beauty, Its
varied style and changing tints
make these fixtures valuable acqui
sitions in any home. The etchings
and frostings display wonderful
workmanship, and their rich deco
rative effect is very much in ad
vance Of their cost.

The largest coke oven in the
world is being built at Gary, Ind,
for the Indiana Steel Company.
Electricity furnishes all the power
for powdering the coke, blowing the
fire, handling the coal and. drawing
the charged ovens.

Electric Hair Dryer.
Blows Hot or Cold.

There is an electric hair dryer
designed for practical work.
which will blow either hot or
cold merely by the turn of q
switch on the device. A small
coil in the back part of the fan
serves as the heating or cooling
station. ,.,.
The operating current is also
controlled by this same switch.
SO that 1t is not necessary to
turn 1t off and on at the socket.
An ordinary growth of hair can
be dried in few minutes by
means of this device, and the
warm blast removes the danger
of cold in the head that some
times follows in the wake of
quick drying by the cold blast
method. -

Her New House Is to
"Run by Electricity

The new house being erected for
Mrs. Charles X. Towt, Of Lindsay,
Cal, is to be arranged for lighting,
cooking, heating and cooling by
electricity. Besides luminous radi-
ators in the fireplaces Of several of
the apartments, all rooms will be
equipped with outlets for heating
appliances.
In the kitchen both an electric
range and a fireless cooker will be
provided. The lighting control Of
this twelve-room house will be not
ably convenient, the lamps Of each
room being controlled from three
way and four-way switches at the
side of any Of the entrances to the
room. Similar cross-connectiOns
are provided for the stairways and
the porch lighting can be turned on
or off from concealed switches oper-
ated before starting up the steps. In
the basement space is arranged for
a motor-driven refrigerating ma
chine for cooling the air in the
twelve-room dwelling.

Electric Cooking Real
Economy in Household.

The wonderful convenience
and absolute cleanliness of
electricity when applied to any
kind of work has been an impe-
tus for the development OF all
kinds of practical appliances
. which not only make convent
ence and cleanliness possible in
all kinds of work, but which
also are designed with a view to
the greatest conservation of en-
ergy possible, so that economy
is one of their recognized fea-
8. lures.
Mazda electric lamps have
been made which give three
times the amount of light for
the same current that the old
. style lamps consumed; sewing
machine motors are made to do
a large amount of work with a
small current consumption; and
electric cooking appliances have
been made which make electric
cooking really practical.
An electric toaster makes
toast a dainty; roast prepared
in an electric range has all the

Huge Bottle Sign on
Baltimore BuiIdinq

A bottle sign surmounts the new
Emerson Tower Building in Balti-
more which weighs fifteen tons.
and 1t is made to revolve BY a
3-horsepower motor, so delicately
is it adjusted. The bottle cannot
be seen at night, but the huge
illuminated letters spelling "Bromo-
Seltzer" may be seen in two coun-
ties and far down the bay. The let
tering is on the bottle in such a
manner as to make the word read
able as the bottle revolves. There
are 314 lamps used in lighting the
letters, each letter being ten feet
high and Ave feet wide. The bottle
Is 289 feet above the sidewalk and
it requires thirty-five seconds for II
to make a single revolution.

The Danish government has un-

Of eels from a portion of the Baltic
Sea into the outer ocean, by means
Of barrier of electric light. Fifty
electric lamps are to be placed
along a submerged cable between

lieved this wall of light will keep
them from passing.

A cheaper grade of coffee can
be SO prepared in an electric
percolator as to be really quite
superior to the more expensive
coffees made ready in the usual
way. Mrs. w. e. Sweezy, in
telling on her own experience
with electric cooking in a paper
read before the Kansas State
electrical convention, September
Fl, declares that she finds 30
cent percolator coffee all that
can be desired and has given up
the use of the Accent grade,
thus saving the difference be-
tween $15.60 and $11.70, or $3.50
year in her coffee bills.
