r.
Washington, Oct. 10.-lCoptinuing its
policy of forging out complete code
for regulation of shipments OF Amer
lean products. not only. to neutral but
I'd be'igerent countries, tne State de-
partment announced decision relat-
ing to exports of cotton seed oil. The
decision marks distinct advance in
the exemption of semi-contraband
gOols from seizure when carried in
American bottoms.
This declaration, In effect, is that
American trade in cotton seed oil in
neutral bottoms is not subject to seiz-
rre or detention not only when des-
tined for neutral countries, but when
shipped to Germany, not intended for
military uses. The British government
has assented to so much of the propo-
siti0n as relates to shipments to Hol-
land of neutral goods, such as food
|stuffs which The Netherlands govern
ment has embargoed for expectation.
The. departments opinion goes be-
yond the mere matter of cotton seed
|oii and lays down the principle that
cotton Is non-contraband ard is not
subject to seizure even when shipped
to q belAgerent country, provided it is
on AeinsrieRn or other neutral ships.
Therefore there is no impeachment to
the shipmbent of American cotton to

CHAFNG DISH AND

Practical Method in Cookery Now

Hostesses.

A combination OF gas stove and chafinE

than a cooking appliance. a chafing dist

of service Is gained. while the actua

method does away with all uncertainty

is assured before it Is brought to the
table
The mode of procedure is quite simple

be cooked. When the cooking is COM
pleted, the two dishes are then set in
place in the frame OF the chaflng dish
and brought to the table. With the water
boiling hot under the blazer. II is often
best to do only a preliminary cooking
over the gas, as. in the case of egg.
oyster, and cheese dishes, the continued
cooking over the boiling water would be
too much. This detail can be easily al
lowed for after one or two experiments.
The cooking done, the hostess is free to
pour tea or coffee or see to other needs
OF her guests. This arrangement is es-
pecially desirable for Sunday night sup
pers where. there is often no maid in at
tendance.
Left-overs OF meat or fowl are de-
licious warmed in the chafing dish with
a carefully prepared sauce chosen to
blend with the material at hand. Slices
OF roast mutton makes an appetizing dish
served with a currant jelly sauce and
slices OF roast pork are good, served IN
the chatting dish, with fried apple Favored

North during January and February,
1864.
The war had indeed become a weary
business, and for a long time there had
been no cheering, no waving Of banners,
no music, and oratory in honor of the
soldiers or the Union. The people had
become accustomed to seeing small COM
panies of sullen recruits marched under
guard like prisoners from the drafting

Like Sun After storm.
The example of the veterans, who after
three years of hard service had re-en-
listed. burst upon the people of the North
like ray from a storm cloud.
A description of the return of the Mo-
Fart Regiment which arrived in New
York City on January serves to il
lustrate the warmth of feeling with which
on every hand the veterans were greeted
in their homecoming.
As the regiment marched up Broad
way to City Hall Park flags were waved
from hundreds of windows and the side
walks were densely packed with people
who so pressed upon the line of march,
eager to see the veterans that it was
impossible for the police to keep them
back.
At the head of the regiment were car
ried its battleflags and behind them
marched a drum and bugle corps. whose
inspiring music created profound i'm
preston on the crowd.
Marching to City Hall Park the regi-
ment held a dress parade. Its head
quarters were established in front of
City Hall, and an enlistment office was
at once opened to which recruits began
to come as freely as they had pressed
forward in the early days of the war.
AS the men of the regiment scattered
to go to their homes their emotions
were of the tenderest and they entered
upon perhaps the happiest period of their
lives. At the end of their thirty days
furlough the veterans went cheerfully
back to the front Many of them were
never to look again upon home or kin
bred.
