HOUSEHOLD NOTES

If when cooking bacon one is care
full not to let the fat burn it may be
kept for frying, and for fish will ans
wer as we'll as the bacon itself.
For delicious cheese balls buy some
cottage cheese, work it smooth with
butter and season well with parme-
sian cheese. Season with salt and
paprika, make into small balls and
serve with salad course.
If buttermilk is used in place of
sweet or sour milk in making biscuit
the pastry will be delicious. Butter
milk makes lighter batter and few
er eggs are needed in batter made
with buttermilk for cakes.
To iron embroidery the iron should
be applied to the wrong side and a
thick ironing blanket should be used
In this way the embroidery will stand
out we'll instead of being fattened, land
looks its very best.
Orange or grapefruit salad is
quickly made,and will help out many
a hurry-up meal. Peel the fruit
slice thick and cut into squares. Lay
the pieces on lettuce and pour rich
French dressing over them.
Wiping over the top of a loaf OF
bread with a little butter before it is
baked, and again as soon as it comes
from the oven, will help to brown
he crust and at the same time keep
the crust from hardening.
When giving castor oil take small
tumbler and squeeze into it table
spoonful of orange juice; next pour in
the oil and add more juice. The juice
will inclose the oil and it can be
swallowed without tasting.
Instead of washing window blinds
place them on a table and give them
rubbing with a clean buster and
very fine bath-briclz. This will gen
orally clean blinds quite as well as
washing, and it is far less laborious.
A square of house flannel of the
stoutest and coarsest description
made into a bag and put over a
broom is the best means of sweeping
boards of linoleum. When slightly
dampened it takes up instead Of scat
tering the dust.
The best way to clean white furs
is to rub them we'll with a mixture
of equal parts of flour and salt that
has been heated for q while. but not
long enough to brown the flour. Let
the mixture remain in the fur for a
day or two, and then shake it out.

THE WORLDS GREAT CITIES.

With a population of 7,252,00 Lon
don maintains it's lead as the worlds
largest city. This is for 1911, the
count having been made a few weeks
ago and now announced. New York
in 1910 had a population of 4,766,OOO,
which is close to 100000 now. WITH
recent annexation of populous sub
urbs, which have added over 100000
to its total, Berlin has 100000 inhab-
itants, and is thus the third city. 1t
has jumped not only above Toxic and
Chicago, which were only a few thou
sands ahead of it in the census count,
but by taking in its suburbs it has
gone beyond Paris, which was more
than 100000 in advance of it few

Representatives by vote of 2O9
to 81, and was signed by President
Mckinley on July Z, 1898. The for
NAL annexation services took place
in Hawaii on August ~, 1900, with no
small amount of ceremony. The
United States flag was raised over
the government building at Honolulu
and Hawaii became a territory of the
United States with the same rights
and privileges as any other territory.
BY the annexation the Unite /,
States acquired an additional popu-
lation approXimating 100000 persons,
composed of almost every race under
the sun. This asset was greatly aug
mented in value by the natural re
sources Of the island no less than BY
the commercial Importance of its sit
uation. It lies in the pathway Of
every ship crossing the Pacific ocean
from the principal ports of both
North and South America to the ports
of Asia and the South Sea islands.
Great Naval Station.
The development of trade in the
Pacific ocean is increasing each
month. The completion of the Pan.
anna canal will give it another i'm
petus. Pearl harbor, seven miles
from Honolulu, will be made the
greatest American naval station. The
United States government, recognize
ing these things, is strengthening
the natural advantages of Hawaii by
additional Notifications. Diamond
Head, the largest extinct volcano in
the world, will soon bristle with guns
and present a defense to any attack
from foreign fleets that will be quite
as impregnable as Gibraltar. Forti-
flying a volcano is a unique feat Of
military engineering, but it is soon
to be completed.
They are now tunneling through
deep walls of lava, making needful
passageways, enlarging the natural
water reservoir and in every way pre-
pairing the fort so thoroughly for the
resistance of attack that its very i'm
pregnability may present the best ar
gument for the peace of nations. #
there comes a great struggle for the
mastery of the Pacific ocean, Hawaii
will become Americas greatest
stronghold.

months ago. Unless Paris annexes
its own immediate outposts, which,
in the aggregate, have 100000 or $780,
600 people, she will have to surrender
the leadership permanently to the
German capital.
1t must be understood that the term
London, when used in the population
figures, means much more than the
city of that name The city and coun-
ty Of London have fewer people than
has New York. Greater" London
comprises many suburbs which have
only a very tenuous connection with
the big city. If there were Great
err" New York in the sense of the
Greater London it would have over
100000 people This would cover
the entire metropolitan district, and
extend not only into Westchester
county but cross the Hudson into the
State Of New Jersey. State lines and
even county lines furnish obstacles
to the extension of municipal limits
such as are unknown to European
countries A simple act of the Prus-
sian Diet added 100000 people to Ber-
Inns total. The consent of neither
the old city nor the suburbs was
asked regarding the annexation. By
the mere process of accretion and an
occasional moving of boundaries out
ward London may at some time cont
prise half or third of England.
But while New York is only the
second city in the world in popula-
ton, it is the first in wealth and the
first in the volume and the variety
of it's activities. AS a port New York
passed London in 1908. The transac-
tons of it's banks exceed London's by
80 per cent, and the number of pas
sengers carried on it's street cars and
other public vehicles is 40 per cent
ahead of London's. Moreover, while
the gain in population of Greater Lon
don was only 10 per cent in the last
! utCdut, llldI vi NC" L Vi N was 90 POI
cent. Even within it's present bound
aries New York city will pass Lon
don before 1925; but there are prof.
ects on foot which will add much
more than 100000 to its population by
annexation. New York is the finan-
cial metropolis of a country which has
double the wealth, and many times
the natural resources and the room
for growth of Great Britain. The
world has ten cities of over 1000, 900
population, and three of these-New
York, Chicago and Philadelphia-are
in the United States. Russia has two
such cities, and England, France,
Germany, Austria and Japan have
one each. If the annexation project

BERNARD sHAWs
EXCESSIVE coNcEIT


Charles whitley had reviewed Pro
fessor Archibald Henderson's book on
Bernard Shaw for the Morning Post.
/ Mr.. Shaw has these remarks to make
THE book makes some statements
which are obviously impossible. 1t
contains several interesting and in
structive dissertations which are in
fiat contradiction to one another. 1t
is already attracting a stream of
American pilgrims to a house in Os-
,naburgh street in which l never lived
and which, as l guess, was photo
graphed by Alvin Langdon Coburn in
preference to the right house (for !
ger beer shop as if Osnaburgh street
once) because it reminded him of the
subject of one of Whistler's Chelsea
Autographs.
1T contains a portrait of me said
to have been taken in Dublin in a
year when, as the biography itself
shows, l was in London, where the
photograph was actually taken. These
things do not matter. The American
can worship as devoutly at the gin
ger beer shop as if Osnagurgh street
were really my first home in London
instead of my third, and as if the au-
thentic temple were not in another
part of the street"
"All pictures taken by Mr.. Coburn,"

does not know his early home from

my fellow countrymen who are vast

The paucity of the number of Shaw
ian devotees in the United States is
doubtless explained by the fact that
they are all burning candles at the
ginger beer shop. Among the class
iof Americans who swing incense and
burn candles many new gods have

Babel of Tongues.

Despite the fact that it is an Amer
lean territory, and that the English
language is the only one authorized,
Hawaii is still a babel of tongues.
Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Portu-
guese, Spanish and native Hawaiian
are all heard. Strange to say, jap
anese is the language most spoken.
Out of a population of 1890, fully
half are orientals, and only about
$4,000 are American born. Yet in
spirit and patriotism Hawaii is rs
distinctly American as New England.
The school children of Honolulu pro-
claim the glories of the Stars and
Stripes with a fervor worthy of any
American children. The schools are
thoroughly American, with teachers
either American born or thoroughly
| Americanized by education. More
than anything else the public schools
! of Hawaii train for American citizen
ship, for in them lies the greatest
hope of the complete Americanization
of the territory.
There is nothing quite so objection
able to the wideawake Hawaiian as
having his Americanism questioned
by native of some other part of the
! United States. When someone on the
mainland puts a scent postage stamp
on a letter he writes to a fellow
American in Hawaii there is sure %
be small tempest.
Loyal and Proud.
The Hawaiian American is the
"Americanist of Americans" and he
is quite as proud of his country as
the most loyal descendant of the Pill
grim fathers.
Hawaii is not an insular posses,
sion" as it is sometimes called, but
bona fide part of the nation Itself.
1t became a part of the United States
in. the same manner that Texas did,
Its statehood in the future is just as
certain, notwithstanding the cosmo-
politan mixture of it's population. II
is only a miniature melting pot
working after the manner of the lar.
ger nation, and in another generation
those who look with the eyes of faith
will see all this confused mixture nj
humanity come out good Americans
ALI ready to give their life blood for
Uncle Sans defense, if need be.
There are more than 100000 acres
of fertile and desirable lands in Ha
wall as yet untitled. Much of it is
not used at all, and the balance IS
only pasture. About half of it is
owned by private persons and the re
mainder belongs to the government
In addition to this there are about
100000 acres which could be made
available by proper irrigation and
drainage. Already this land is being
considered by homeseekers. Small
tracts of twenty acres, which may be
secured absolutely free will, if prop,
erly developed, yield a handsome in

One Needs Capital There.

for the moneyless settler. 1t requires
more capital to take up land in Ha-

waii than on the mainland, as the
methods of agriculture differ. The
settler in the semi-tropical climate
must have money to employ labor ami
to wait from two to four years for his
crops to yield. But with patience and
with proper judgment the rich harvest
is bound TO come.

able for many crops besides that OF
sugar, which is its chief product an /
commercial export Perhaps the most
lucrative product is the pineapple,
which in Hawaii has luscious flavor
unexcelled by that in any other part
of the world. Rice is a naying crop.
1t is said that by growing two crops
of rice year, one crop will pay the
expenses of both, thus leaving the
other a pure profit. Cotton growing
has been successfully demonstrated
and the same may be said of rubber.
Good Coffee Crops.
Experiments with tobacco show
that grades which compare favorably
with the best that Cuba and Brazil
can produce can be grown on Hawa-
iian soil. Coffee is a poor mans crop
in Hawaii. 1t grows in the high, cool
regions. It does not require eXpen-
sive machinery to grow or to prepare
for market. It rather improves with
age, and even a single bag can he
readily turned into cash as soon as
it reaches the market. Twelve acres
of land have been known to yield
twelve tons of coffee, although 1000
pounds an acre is a good crop. One
man can attend to twenty acres, eV-
cepting at picking time. Pickers are
paid SO cents the hundredweight of
the berries brought into the mill.
Last years coffee crop in Hawaii APP
proximated 100000 in value, and
most of it came to the mainland of
the United States.
