Theory of the Author.

Attorney General Webb worked
upon the theory that there could be
no objection 20 writing into the Cali.
fornia statute the specific limitations
of the japanese treaty of 1911. I'm
der the terms Of this treaty, Japanese
subjects are permitted to own "houses
and lands for residential purposes, fac
tories, manufactures and shops ac-
cording to Mr.. Webb, Another, clause
permits japanese subjects to lease
land for residential and commercial
purposes.
These are the only stipulations
made, and it is the belief Of the attor-
ney general that the rights Of Japan.
ese subjects TO land ownership in the
United States stop at this point. I'm:
der his construction Of the treaty, no
land can be owned or leased by Jap
anese for agricultural purposes, except
that which is already owned, or for
any other purposes except those set

SO few people seem TO know how to
bake anything but sweet apple when
really, the sour apple of any variety
is considered the best baker here in
the apple belt
For the benefit OF the many who
never have learned, won't you let me
tell how to do it?
Baked Sour Apple-Apple belt style.
After wiping and trimming any sort
of sour apples. cut in halves without
pairing. Dig out the cores. Put one
fourth inch of boiling water in the bot
tom of pie tin. Lay apples in on
their backs and fill the slot with any
sort Of sugar emosr of us in the "1san- :
try" like the light brown sort best.

IT would thank you for advice in this
matter. ! had poor luck this season In
putting up preserves. l put up quite a
quantity of grape jelly 1t thickened
nicely, and when 1t was cool I sealed it.
After standing four or five weeks it be-
gan to work and flow over. What would
you advise me to do TO have the jelly?
DO you think 1t would be fit to use? II
IL good and thick. Your advice will be
appreciated HOUSEWIFE.
The preserves have possibly been kept
in too warm a room. Last year friend
who lives in an apartment had an ex-
perience similar to yours. She made
quantity of fruit jelly during the summer.
and stored it away in a closet in her small
apartment Back of this closet ran q
steampipe, a fact which she discovered
when her jelly began to work and
overflow. The heat had affected 1t all.
My advice to you would be to empty all
the Jars. turn out the preserves into
granite kettle add a little sugar to them,
boil up once, hard, and pour into cleansed
Jars Have the preserves scalding not

UPHOLD VALIDITY OF
THEATRE ORDINANCE

Chicago. February 4.-Tr upholding the
validity of the loft theatre ordinance,
Chief Justice Baldwin of the circuit court
rendered a decision which will affect
scores of theatres in this city, particu-
larly outside of the business district.
The ordinance was passed to insure
the safety of patrons after the Iroquis
theatre fire in which about GOO persons
lost their, lives. BY far the greater num-
ber of houses affected are moving pic
ture and at least one downtown play
house must close and make alterations
costing $4,000
The changes involve lowering this
theatre from second story to the ground
floor. Many theatres have been created
in violation of the ordinance by means
of injunctions and other legal expedi-
ents.
