EVERY ROOM A HOUSE.

Probably nowhere is there SO strange
''house" as that lived in by Joaquin
Miller, the Poet of the Sierras." In
fact, in this case ''house" is collective
noun, for the bard sleeps under one roof,
eats and cooks under another, and enter
tains visitors under still another. Yet
the poet insists that it is all one house,
with merely pleasant walk in the sun
shine between the rooms. The poets
home is at Dimond, California, in the
Oakland. He is much visited by lovers

On the subject of chiIdren's appetites he
says in part
every one of the cravings which we
not infrequently see in the average child,
for sugar. or green apples, or butter, or
cake; yes, even for dirt and shoe-leather,
are simply due to his having been starv-

compelled him to live, whether he liked
it or not.

Boston, Jan. %. Work on the steam

Boston, has been temporarily delayed be-
cause of strike among the boilermak-

drydock at East Boston for several weeks
undergoing repairs. Nearly 100 plates

LIGHTING THE PANAMA CANAL.

AS the completion Of the canal draws
near, interest in the vast construction
work merges into great variety of de-
tails which will be necessary to its opera
ton. For the first time, says the Febru
airy Popular Mechanics Magazine, in an
Illustrated article, two great oceans will
be connected by an unbroken avenue of
brilliant lights, through which the worlds
commerce will pass, for this canal will
be in service every hour during every
day in the year. Like stately sentinels
standing at attention, a double line of
buoys, beacons and lighthouses will en-
able the pilots to safely follow the zig
gag course from Atlantic to Pacific.

HOW A WOMAN WITH 500 CAPITAL EARN
ED A GOOD LIVING.


The Woman's Home Companion is
publishing series of articles shown.
how a woman with a 500 capital can
build up little business that will vie i'd
an income sufficient to support her. In
the February number appears an ac-
count of Mrs. Russell who was left a
widow with a daughter of twenty. When
her husband died all that she had was a
debt of $3.50 and good collection of fur
nlture. She borrowed 500 on her house
furniture and with this capital she and
her daughter started small lunch room
which is open from ten in the morning
until eight in the evening. She calls it
The 'Just-a-Bite" Shop. Following is
an extract from the article:-
''The first day they opened they served
twenty-five people, between eleven and
two o'clock; six during the afternoon,
and nine for supper: total of thirty
seven. The menu for the first day was
Noodle soup, 10c; corn chic der, 1Oc;
chicken pies, Zoe; oyster patties. zoe;
pork and beans, 1Oc; pimento and brown
bread sandwiches, &c; strawberry junket,
loo, apple pie, home made, SC; custard
pie, homemade, SC; coffee, tea, milk or
cocoa, SC; home crullers. Sc.
'In counting up, they found they had
made a net profit on the first day of
80 besides what food they had left
over and their own meals for both of
them. The sales of the first day
amounted in cash to a total of $40. 23.
1.-THE second day they served chicken
soup (made from the stock of the day
before from the chicken pies), Dreaded
pork chops and sweet-potato roll, chick
en- salad, mince pies, cup custard, and
bean-salad sandwiches. Their income
that day was $l4.3O, and their outlay
was 1888. Their net profit on the sec
ond day was 1912. They found that
they averaged about ten cents profit a
person, and therefore if they served
enough, they could make very decent
income"

DOES YOUR APPETITE FLAG AT THIS
SEASON?

Fannie Merritt Farmer, cookery edi-
tor of the Woman's Home Companion,
published in the February number of
that periodical eleven recipes for appe-
tizing dishes which she feels quite sure
the vast majority of her readers do not
know how to make. She says that st
this time of year the appetite begins to
flag and that the housewife is often
puzzled to serve meals that will please
the family. Following is one Of the
recipes:-
Cincinnati Coffee-Bread - Put one
third cupful of sugar, one third cupful of
butter, and one-half teaspoonful of salt
in bowl without lip, and pour over
one cupful of scalded milk When mix

broken in small pieces and dissolved in
one-fourth cupful of lukewarm water,

UNNATURAL WAR.

A president of the United States
once said in introducing Charles
Wagner the author of 1.-The Simple
Life to a Washington audience:
The brutal arrogance of a rich
man who looks down upon a poor
man because he is poor, and the
brutal envy and hatred felt by a poor
man toward rich man merely be-
cause he is rich, are at bottom twin
manifestations of the same vice.
Wars between the classes are mere
ly the results of ignorance. The rich
man who considers himself above
those who have no money, but are
his superiors in every other respect,

cubes are concentrated meat essence
and of high nutritive value has been
shattered by the department of agri-
culture, which says that while they are
valuable stimulants they have little or
no real food value and are relatively
expensive in comparison with home
made broths and soups.
1.-THE ordinary commercial bouillon

from one-half to three-fourths table
salt. AS they range in price from 10
to 20 cents an ounce, purchasers of
these cubes are buying salt at high
price. The cubes do contain a small
amount of protein (muscle building

ing properties, and the makers of most
of the cubes make no advertised claim
that they are concentrated beef broth

However, many housewives believe
they are and that they possess high
nutritive values. especially for invalids.
This is not the case. The fact that the
cubes sell for from l to cents each,
and each cube makes cup of broth,
misleads the housewife into the belief
that she is obtaining meat extract

who have done exactly what he
would have done in like circum-
stances-both of these are dissatisfi-
ed with the rest of the world merely
because they are living unnatural
lives, and are ignorant of the things
that bring real happiness.
The brutality that marks both ends
of society is the worlds greatest
fault. Away with it, The rich and
the poor, the capitalist and the
laborer, must help each other Let
us not kill the goose that lays the
golden egg by lighting the man who
gives us employment or the man
whom we employ. Let us remember
the famous saying of President Nc
Kinley, that the man who would set
labor and capital at war against each
Iother is the enemy of both. Let us

SMUGGLING MUST STOP.

Judge Hunt of the U. s. District
court of New York has decided that
the imposition of fines is not going
to stop women of wealth from snug
Cling. He, therefore, has decided
upon more vigorous measures. In flu
ture the smuggler, regardless of sex.
will get no mercy if arranged before
Judge Hunt. The woman will be
sent to prison as quickly as the man.
In such a way Judge Hunt sees the
only way to put stop to a practice
which is becoming much to common.

THE RALLY OF A SHADOW.

The thanks of millions of down
trodden men will be paid TO William
H., even if the saying attributed to
Inn, "A real man wears mustache, "
was invented for him by some foe of
smooth-facedness. 1t is not given TO
all to be as beautiful. for example, as
the Hon. Josephus Daniels or
eighteenth century swells in engray-
ings and miniatures. Constrained
by fashion, how many clock stop
ping phiz that needs the discreet
decoration of a mustache appears
harsh, Volseian, buffet to aesthetics.
a pain to others and presumably to
its owner.
We speak in no reactionary sense,
but the new freedom from facial
shadows is abused. Without regard
TO real or ideal men, this American
and English smoothness is monoton-
Gus. Even some Latins of lands
where the coffeur is king have stip-
ped their lineaments.
Ii is not to be expected that the
old times will return when a mus
tache was the hope of ingenious
youth and loves young dream; the
cause may be lost in spite OF this
brave German rally.
1t is darkly said by anthropolog-
lists that as Triumphant Gynocracy
goes it's relentless way the plumes
that used to fiutter from the new
sandpapered mug of Mere Man
must wave and waggle over loyelier
lips, already opened wide to pro-
