WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.--Smash.
ing Is the slogan among the frugal
housewives OF the National Capital
when they get together for the pur-
pose Of discussing the retail prices
of foOdstuffs Of all kinds, especially
eggs and butter, and SO insistent
have they been In the expression OF
their views on this subject that they
have literally compelled the retail
dealers to 'come down to the extent
of reducing the prices of eggs from
10 to % cents a dozen. That's the
prevailing rate here today, and the
dealers assert that 1t will continue
during the greater part OF the win
ter. OF course, it's cold storage eggs
that are referred to, for the fresh
country article Is arrely seen, and
when seen is usually rated as high as
rare things fetch in any market.
The crusades Of the Philadelphia
and New York housewives have had
a remarkably noticeable effect in cut
ting down the prices OF cold storage
hen fruit in those cities, where they
are sold for "a cents a dozen; but,
their militant sisters in Washington
are not a little proud of the fact that
in Washington's celebrated Central
market, huge signs are everywhere
displayed informing the people that
they a get an unlimited supply OF
selected" cold storage eggs for 22
cents a dozen. The dealers don't ad-
nit that their action was precipitat-
ed by the women; but, no matter
whether they do or not. the homes
OF the poor and rich alike are all the

BOYS TO ACT AS DETECTIVES.
Forty at Sioux City Will Undertake
g. to Catch "Jack the PEPPER"

SIOUX CITY. la. Dec. N.-Forty
members of the boys branch of the
Sioux City Humane society, who have
been doing detective" work, have
set out to catch "Jack, the PEPPER"
whose nightly disturbances have set
the women of the thickly populated
''hill" district Wild with apprehension.
The boys will 'deploy themselves, one
to a block, all over the territory or
dinarily covered by the marauder,
with the hope Of keeping him in sight
in case they discover him, until the
police can arrive and nab him.
The pepper has visited dozens OF
houses and even climbed stairways,
porches and fire escapes. Growing
more bold Of late, he has chased wo-
mel who appear on the streets alone
at night. k

because it does not protect the dairy
man. 1t will drive the dairy business
off the face Of the earth, and will
also drive out the mother 0 fthe beef
steer. II the place of existing cond!-
tons, we will have no butter, no beef,
and cleo will rise to a price beyond
that which we pay for butter now"
Professor +. c.. Atkinson, of the
animal husbandry section at the West
Virginia State university, capped the
climax by his statement: There IS
one point OF ir~reconcilable difference
between butter makers and oleO max
ers, and that is covered by the prop
Osition that the man who eats butter
wants to, know it, and the man who
eats cleo wants to know j., Butter
can't be produced for less than 80
cents a pound, and oleo a be pro-
duced for IL cents a pound. The ac-
tual result of the bill will be thai
butter will 60 out and oleo will oG the
only thing we can %get--and the price
of that will be enormous" i,
Informal instructions have just
been sent from the Vatican to Cath
Ollie archbishops, bishops and priests
in the United States to plan their fu-
ture visits to Rome and to the Pope
in groups and in parties. The ola
way was for ~preiates to 60 at such
times as was convenient, so long as
the date was within the prescribed
period. The result was that the Pom
tin received in succession Catholic
prelates from all parts OF the world.
But the new way, which applies
not only to the United States, but to
all other countries, is to have from
time to time, conferences with the
pope concerning conditions and needs
in different countries; and this plan
is much better for the Vatican au'
thorities, easier for the aged pope,
and likely to result in much greater
consideration for each Of the coun-
tries discussed. Recently, a number
of American prelates have been in
Rome, under the old way or plan, but
early in 1913, it is said, a large num-
her of American archbishops, per
haps about one.half Of the whole
number, with companies OF bishops,
will visit Rome for conferences on
American affairs.
This change is due in part to the
new plans Of administration in the
Consistorial Congregation, at the,
head Of which is Cardinal De Lai,
mentioned as possible successor to
the present pope. Formerly, Catho'
lie affairs in America were managed
by the Congregation of the Propagan-
da. Now, however, all reports from
Washington, and from American
archbishops and bishops go in regu-
lar form, like reports from European
countries, to the Consistorial Cohgre'
cation, or to the cardinal secretary
Of state. 1t is in this congregation
that the pope has recently assigned
the new bureau that looks after ltal-
iaas going to America to settle where
there are Catholic churches, and to
see that priests in America, VINO

SCOTCH TERRIERS.
Their Origin and the Conditions That
Made Them a Necessity.

Their Origin and the Conditions That
Made Them a Necessity.
In ancient times each district in tho
highlands had its 'todhunter," whose
duty it was to see carefully to it that
the then iourishing firm Of fox, otter
and company did not do too prosper
GUS business in lamb and poultry.
Sometimes these todhunters were Of
1.-The laird's men," sometimes they were
supported by the whole community of
small farmers and grazers, but always
they were local dignitaries. There was
honor and considerable profit In their
office, and in time it came to be more
or less hereditary. Their duty was
simple. They waged a war of extermi-
nation against the vermin. which, how
ever, was a very different matter from
the good old English sport Of fox hunt
ing.
In the rough country horse and
hound would have been worse than
useless. and Reynard made his den in
such rocky ground that he could not be
dug out. The sole solution was a dog
small enough to follow the fox or otter
or badger or wild cat into his lair,
strong enough to bring him out dead or
alive and game enough to do both. A
dog developed from this necessity, and
that dog was the ancestor Of the pres
ent day Scottish terrier. - William
Haynes in Outing.
