Representative of Eleonora Received by
Third Assistant.

New York, April 3o.-AIthough a
cable message from Sofia said that
Queen Eleanora OF Bulgaria would can
eel her proposed visit to this country in
the event of war with Mexico, William
Caspar, the queens personal representa-
tive, is confident that her majesty will
arrive here toward the end of next
month.
While Mr. Caspar announced that he
did not believe Queen Eleanora will
change her plans, the talk in diplomatic
circles in this city for the last week has
been that the queen of Bulgaria has not
been satisfied with the reception Mr..
Caspar received in Washington when he
went to give formal notification of the
visit of the queen to this country.
Her majesty, it is understood, felt tha'
Mr.. Caspar should have been received by

Banana Recipes.

Bananas are unit for food before the
skin begins to turn black in places or
if there is any reluctance in the skin to
separate from the pulp. If not thor
oughly ripened they are liable to cause
dyspepsia. Those that the housewife
generally throws away are the ones that
are the most wholesome for food, and
those that the family usually eat are
the most unfit for food.
Banana Pic Take one cup of sifted
banana pulp, one-half cup of sugar one
cracker powdered fine, one-half cup OF
milk and the grated rind and juice OF
one half lemon, or two tablespoonfuls of
molasses. Mix the ingredients together
and bake until firm in a pie pan lined
with pastry, the same as for squash
pie The cracker may be omitted unless
a rather firm pie is preferred.
Banana Pudding dozen lady fin
gers, six bananas, two cups of whipped
cream, one fourth of cup OF powdered
sugar and one-half teaspoonful of vanilla.
Cover the bottom of the dish with lay
er OF lady fingers, put layer of sliced
bananas over this and then layer OF
the cream, which has been whipped with
the sugar and vanilla. Repeat until the
ingredients are all used. Serve cold.
Banana Fritters-One egg one and
half cups of milk, one tablespoonful OF
sugar, one cup of flour and two tea
spoonfuls of baking powder. Beat the
egg, sift the -four and baking powder to-
gether and mix the ingredients. Slice
the banana and mix with the batter.
Drop the mixture from spoon, being
careful that each spoonful contains sew
eral pieces of the banana, into frying
pan with enough hot grease to give the
fritter a nice brown. Serve with a sugar

MANY RATES
SUSPENDED
Sweeping Action Taken by
the Commerce Com
mission
THIS PENDING
INVESTIGATION
Belief That by This Method
Rebates Are Con-
stituted

Washington, April 30.-Several thous-
railroads cancelling allowances hereto
fore made to 20 named industrial rail-
ways in various parts of the country,
were suspended yesterday by the inter
state commerce commission until July
30. An inquiry now is in progress with
a view to determining whether the al
lowances made by the trunk lines as
divisions of their rates, do not consti-
tute, in a legal sense. rebate on ship
ments handled by the industrial roads.
The commission found, in its investiga-
ton of allowances, made to the indus
trial railways controlled or owned by
steel and iron companies, that the pay
ments constituted substantial rebate
to the shippers and tariffs cancelling
those allowances have been permitted
to stand.
That freight rates on lake and rail
shipments were not based upon what
might be a reasonable return for the
service of the carriers, but upon de-
termination of the rail lines which mo-
nopolize the package freight business on
the Great lakes to maintain an estab-
lished differential between lake and rail,
and allrail rates, was asserted by Rush
c. Butler of Chicago yesterday before
the commission in the advance rate case
Mr.. Butler pointed out that there had
been az radual but constant increase in
the lake and rail rates through a pc
Rod OF years, until now they We're too
high to enable shippers to use the nat
ural water routes of the Great lakes
to real advantage. The advances from
time TO time had been made, in his opin-
ion, with the evident determination of
the eastern trunk lines which monopolize
the lake traffic to force shippers to use
the all-rail routes.

which will make possible the turning of

eral. This plan to extend borrowing ia
cilities to the person of small means was
first worked out in America by Arthur

been adopted by the industrial finance
corporation, which is putting it into OPP
Grafton all over the country. 1t is de-
signed for the man showing a legitimate
borrowing need. and with reputation
Tor honesty among the associates and
employers.
THE banks lend in proportion to a

of fifty weeks this collateral certificate
becomes full paid and the owner can
cash it, paying the money over to the

SULPHUR FOR ECZEMA
APPLIED LIKE COLD CREAM 1T STOPS ITCHING
AND DRIES SKIN ERUPTIONS RIGHT UP

With the first application of bold
sulphur cream, the angry itching at

its remarkable healing powers begin.
Sulphur, says renowned dermatolo-
gist, just common boldsulphnr, made
the skin when irritated and broken out
with eczema or any form of eruption.
The moment it is applied all itching
ceases and after two or three applica-
tions the eczema disappears, leaving
the skin clear and smooth.

For many years this soothing, heal
ing sulphur has occupied secure posi-

fections by reason of its parasite-de-
