AostrIan elrIs to Learn to Cook.

Cookery had never been taught in
Austrian schools until last September,
when the minister of education added
1t to the curriculum of all girls
schools under his control, both ele.
mentary and advanced. He further
stipulated that any girl taking up
modern languages or other extra sub
jects shall be compelled to include
cookery in her school course. In or
der to carry out the innovation as
cheaply as possible, restaurants are
run in connection with the larger
schools In pspulous centers.

CHANGING EUROPE'S MAP.

Queen Wilhelmina of Holland
favors plan for the reclamation of
the Zuyder Zee, thus increasing the
area of Europe. The Zuyder Zee was
originally lake, and the scheme Is
to make it so again by constructing a
great dyke across the entrance to the
Zuyder Zee and then build three
other dykes around the coast of the
Zee, one running nearly dicertly
north ad south and one closing the
western part of the Zee, another
from near the southern end of the
first to a point well up on the eastern
shore. while a third one will stretch
northwest in the direction of the dixie
built across the entrance. This
scheme will not touch the centre of
the Zee. which will thus return to its
former condition of lake.

COST OF LIVING IN SCOTLAND.

A traveller recently returned from
Scotland says the people there live
well but considerably cheaper than
they do in this country. Mutton is
popular, largely taking the place of
beef. Butter does not enter strongly
in the ordinary bill of fare being re-
served for the latter part of the meal
and eaten with oat meal cakes as a
sort of dessert
Dat meal in many forms and all
very palatable helps to keep down the
high cost of living in Scotland and

water that 1t is our cost of living
high" rather than the high cost of
living which makes the money fly

WHO IS THE REAL. PowER2

Sam Ableman of Hammond says he
is going to run for Mayor on an In
dependent ticket.
That is Sans proud perogative.
We are told on highly esteemed
authority that Sam is going around
town with his pockets jingling with
gold pieces known In the olden days
as pieces of eight. He is said to have
made the remark that he can get
1900 votes in East Hammond and is
very cocky and self-confident.
We should like to know the source
of Sans wealth. We should like to
know who the gentleman is behind
the redoubtable and foxy Samuel
We would like to know his renewed
interest in the Hammond campaign.
We distinctly remember how money
was poured into the last democratic
municipal campaign at the last min
ute.

STREET PARADES.

There was big political parade
the other night in Gary ad even since
certain Gary paper have been calling
each other thieves and liars because
of their counts of the men in line.
Mayor Knots has his campaign open

no doubt last for another week or

Why quarrel about a political pa
rade anyway? What difference does
it make whether party has 1000 or
1900 men in line? Everyone with
a scintilla of brains knows that pa
rades are manufactured. 1t is only a
question of how great an effort is
made to get out marchers. What
percentage of a parade marches vol

solemn warning to goat raisers and
invalids for whom diet of goats
milk has been prescribed.
Proofs have conclusively establish
ed. the scientists say. that the trans
mission to man of a fever known
variously as Malta" mountain"
"slow typhoid" or by certain other
designations, is accomplished by the
milk of infected goats.
Careful observation in Texas and
New Mexico show that the disease has
always made its appearance among
people connected with goat raising.
Entire families have been taken sick
with 1t on goat ranches. The sick
ness appears usually after the kid
April, May and June.
Observations have also shown that
just over the border in Mexico goat
herders are not nearly so liable to the
disease. Conclusions have been drawn
that this is not due to any natural
immunity, but to the fact that the
Mexicans always boil the milk before
drinking 1t. while the Americans use
1t raw.
The general opinion has prevailed
that the United States is free from
Malta fever and that the disease has
only occurred through importations.
However. 1t now seems evident that
the Malta fever has existed in Texas
and New Mexico for at least twenty
five years. The fever takes its name
from Great Britain's island in the
Mediterranean, where the disease has
been exceedingly prevalent among
British soldiers and sailors.
Its occurrence in tropical and sub
tropical localities has been noted in
almost every country. A number of
cases have been reported among our
soldiers who had just returned from
the Philippine Islands.
