AMERICAN NEUTRALITY

The maintenance of neutrality has been made more difficult by recent inventions among which wireless tele- graphy figures as a new feature.
 When it comes to this important service we do not think of Uncle Sam.s s watch dogs of the sea under the guise of the revenue cutter service.
 Today 43 armed cutters, tugs and launches, manned by LIPS officers and enlisted men, are securing the seas One may be going to sea to blow up a derelict that has become dangerous to navigation: another searching ship for smuggling goods or examin- ing her sailing papers, while a third may be on the way to suppress nu- tiny or piracy, or to enforce neutrality laws of American ports.
 Our neutrality permits no enlist ments or organization of belligerents on American soil, except reservists who have not become American cit izens, but it does not allow connpui- sion, or punishment of them, so long as they are within our borders. No nghting vessel can be fitted out for any of the belligerents-no spying craft be allowed in American waters. and this three mile zone is measured l0. the fluctuations of the coast
 Belligerent warships may use our harbors, however. without violation of neutrality so long as they remain only "A hours, unless they are forced to remain longer by stress of weather or by taking on supplies. They may take on only such supplies as will sustain the crew and the ship to the nearest home port. Munitions of war may be manufactured and sold here but if an attempt is made to deliver them to belligerent outside of Amer ican jurisdiction he who makes the attempt does so at his own peril and fofeits the right to claim protection by this government.
 The wireless stations have all been placed under the supervision of the navy and the dispatches must all be censored by government supervisors
 The government has been investi- gating a. couple of German controlled stations, one at Tuckerton, N. J., the other at Sayvi1le, L. I. Both these sta- tions have been in communication with the German cruisers off our coast and code messages have been sent them. presumably telling of the where abotits of English and French steam CTS and warships.
 This Is a clear violation of neutral ity and was immediately stopped
 It shows Germany omitted nothing in it's calculations when planning thIs surprise for the nations,

 On Sept Gen. Boulanger demanded of Prime Minister of France Triad a trial by court martial This was re- fused. whereat a public demonstration by the Boulanger party on Nov. 12 resulted in the government arresting 150 participants.
 Boulanger continued to live abroad during the remainder of his life. In April, 1890. the Boulangists were to- tally defeated in the municipal elec- tions and on May IS the general pub lished letter deprecating any further agitation in favor of his views. He finally committed suicide at Brussels in Belgium. on Sept. 90, 1891. on the grave of his amorita, Mime. de Bon nemains who had died in the preced- ing July.

FAMOUS TRIALS
Trial of Gen. souIans.-.

The people of France have never had public man whom they have more thoroughly idolized than they did Gen- Boulanger. From the period he was made war minister he was the most popular man in the country. He came to be accepted as their man of destiny and he retained this popu- larity for score of years in spite of the jealousy he inspired among those who considered themselves entitled to equal consideration. He was able to retain this popularity in spite of the fact, as was afterwards shown, that he was concerned in various intrigues for his own betterment with no proper consideration as to the welfare of the nation that paid him such marked honors
 Boulanger became the head of the French army in 1886. He was appoint ed to the office of minister of war when the radicals won under M. Glenn enceau. His patron, however, was compelled, in a short time, to abandon him for the reason that he was be- coming so inconveniently prominent and there were no regrets by the head of the French government when he re- signed in May. 1887 The mob clam ored for their brave general" but M. Bouvier. in forming his new cab met. declined to take him into his of fctal family and he was given com mand Of an army corps.
 But a Boulanger movement" had al- ready been started. The Bonapartists had attached themselves to him and even the comte de Paris encouraged his followers to support him. His name was the theme of the popular song of the moment and the French military bands everywhere were play ing the "Boulanger marches" that had been composed in his honor. The men ton of his name at the theatre or any public assemblages always called out an enthusiastic demonstration, for the general and his black horse had become the idol of the Parisian pop ulace
 All this honor seems to have turned his head. for he began showing insub- ordination, which eventually led to his being deprived of his command in 1888 for twice coming to Paris without leave, and finally on the recommenda-

The secret of having it free from Jumps is to have the liquid hot enough to cook the batter at once. and to keep stir ring it until it is well cooked. Never try to stir raw flour into hot liquor nor to make smooth grayies in luke warm stock

CANADA To SEND MEN AND FOOD

The fact that Canada proposes to organize 100000 men for service in defense of the British flag and to send 10,000,0e0 bushels of Canadian grain for the Britons as gift shows the loyalty of the people to the mother country.
 A promoter in this scheme says: Tt would be futile to furnish Can adian battleships. It has no crew trained to man even one battleship. Fifty crews could be raised in week to run the blockade across the Allan tic. Ten million bushels of Canadian grain for Britain would be a truly Canadian gift to the mother country; aid from the prairies and from the maritime provinces, 8 way acceptable to Ontario and Quebec. It would solve one of the most pressing of Britain's problems: food supply. As well as being perhaps the most effective aid Canada can give. and the most truly national, it has the advantage of be- ing unsullied and free from political partisan maneuvering. It could be supported by conservatives and ib- erals and nationalists without any question of political capital. It is a measure of real aid: ten million bush els of Canadian grain for Britain on Canadian ships manned by Cana dians"

pusTLEss BUSTER.


 Cheesecloth makes the best dus- ters It costs but six cents yard Sufficient quantity for two or three clusters should be purchased, cut in desired lengths and h4nmed. This was the old d-style duster which sim ply scattered the dust; then came the wonderful and magic dusters, which seemed to suck up the dust. There Is simple and inexpensiFe g method of preparing the new ones for home use. Purchase a small quantity of crude oil, saturate them in the oil. but before doing this the cheese cloth should be wrung out of hot water, then dipped into the oil. Aa- other way of preparing very go1d ones is to saturate the cheesecloth in kerosene oil, hang them up in the sunlight to dry These are bon practical and quite as efficient as those on the market which sell fror1 25 to 45 cents each.

THE MINE AND THE FORTRESS
 SECONDARY.

In these drys the great battieship with it's long distance guns is not obliged to come in sight of the coast ] to do incalculable damage to the cities, and in open sea fighting the subma- Tine boat is the worst foe of the ar mored fighting ship.
 The Ottawa Citizen discoursing upon the present naval possibilities. says:
 Since the perfection of the subma- rine boat, the submerged mine and the fortress have taken secondary place in coast defense. No fortress could withstand the attack of a bat- tie fleet; and with the long range guns of the modern battIeship, coast line may be bombarded by ships safe from any mine field so far distant as to be factor an attacking German fleet Aas to fear is the British submarine boat fiotilla. Admiral Sir Percy Scott has declared that the development of the submarine has made the continued existence of the battleship next to impossible
 Any German fleet would approach Britain in peril of meeting perhaps the worlds most powerful submarine navy But it is terribly obvious that the gall lant British fleet, seeking to engage the Germans and likely approaching the narrow entrance to the Baltic. is also exposed to a devastating German submarine attack-against which there is no defense. The hour is more for quiet contemplation than for boastful singing and hysterical cheering; for thought of the brave men willingly going to perform what they have been taught to consider their duty, and for prayer that the world may be deliv- cred speedily from it's travail.
