DOWNING suLzER.

Anything to beat Sulzer seems to have been the effort of the New York progressives in picking out g. ticket for approval by the primaries, but while the state committee went through the process of doing just what 1t has been so severely criti- cfsfng the old parties for doing in the past. for the purpose of directing the vote of the rank and file, 1t has not succeeded in entirely crushing the en- thusiasm of the irrepressibie Sulzer and his followers.
 That there is a. well divided senti- ment among the packers of the third party movement that Sulzer should be given the nomination is indicated by the steps which were considered necessary in order to squelch the pos sihiIitv of his choice. It IS not sur prfsing that the third party should oppose for the head of their ticket the man who has been deposed from the office which he is again seeking: Sulzer has established record for which no party can be expected to stand sponsor, but from the demand which there is for him to lead the tick ct there is disclosed the radicalism which exists in the party.
 Each move throughout the cam paign, especially the influence Sulzer has been able to exert has borne out Senator Roots statement that the party is fast undergoing decay, and while Sulzer may not be able to gath CT In a nomination he ought to be able to attract a sufficient following to bolt and start new party of his own. just to make things interesting and further aid the cause of Tamnany.

pEsrRucTIoN oF LoUvAIN.

Whether much study has been given the many questions involved in the war in Europe or not, it will be gen orally conceded that Belgium had suf- fered tremendously and too severely long before the destruction of the city of Louvain That that unfortihed town should be sacked and burned was en- tirely uncalled for. It was violence of too great severity even though as claimed some of the townspeople had fired upon German troops, though such an excuse is offset by the citizens of Eouvain, who attribute it to the. COW ering up of blunder when some Of the German soldiers fired upon their own men by mistake.
 Iouyain has been made to suffer through the loss of the city just as Belgium has been made to bear the brunt of the entire programme which Germany prepared against another na- ton. With such reprisal and the war less than a month old, 1t is but nat ural to wonder what vengeance may yet be practiced~ against Belgium for daring to respect and honor it's piece of white paper"
 With such conduct 1t Is but nat urai that Brussels should be fearful of like treatment. Whether this act indicates what Germany may exact | from Belgium in the future remains I to be seen, but if her programme is l to retain 1t as a province of the em. pire such course as has been adopt ed is not calculated to make a happy land coutented class of subjects.

NEEDLEWoRk NOTES.

New American patchwork designs show large pink tulips on a neutral ground.
 To be strictly fashionable silk or lisle gloves should be embroidered on the back of the hand and at the gauntlet end.
 Loosely woven ramie linens are much used just now as a background for designs carried out in soft cottons. Outlinings, French knots, some solid work and a few eyelets are thrown into relief by rows of evenly spaced alarming.
 The open. air girl is not content merely to have coIored crepe de chine handkerchief tucked into the breast pocket of her knitted or heecy golf coat, but she must have a. bow at her throat to match 1t exactly in color These sets are made in the prettiest shades of blue. mauve and canary.
 Or 1inary plaid dish toweling makes durable and cool looking covers for piazza pillows. Take, for instance, a fair sized check in red and white and embroider all the white checks with red lazy-daisies in silk or the red squares with white silk. A ruffle of the toweling bordered with red tape completes a good looking cover.
 Stencil designs are eninently fitted for summer draperies and cushion covers Suitable hot weather pattens are sought by the worker who has an eye for the fitness of things. Sea shells with trailing seaweed scrolls and unconventional fish with ornamen- tai tails are among the clever ideas successfully worked out by one young artist.

RECIPES.

Fried Green Tomatoes-Beat an egg until light and foamy Add one tea spoon and half of olive oil. a little salt and pepper. Beat again. Have ready some good firm green tomatoes cut in slices one-quarter of an inch thick. Dip them separately, first in egg mixture, then in bread crumbs, then in egg and last in crumbs.

AUTO FATALITIES AND LICENSES

The granting of authority for the suspension or removal of licenses was expected to result in a marked de- crease of the infractions of the auto regulations relative to speeding, the careless operating of cars and the ob- servance of traffic rules. For the careful driver it has, and in a large number of cases unnecessarily so, for there always Is a large number who religiously observe the laws, but tfle announcement by the state secretary the past week that the licenses of four drivers have been suspended for fatal ities in which they have been con- cerned this month, indicates that all that had been expected of the legis- 1ation has not been accomplished. And these do not include the triple fatality at South Windsor.
 While it Is perfectly apparent that there are such cases which are pure iy accidental and in which the party killed or injured was negligent, yet the long list of fatalities due to the auto points out the crying need of reaching those reckless drivers who are constant menace to all users of the highways as well as a great dan ger to themselves and those who ac- company them. Where such reckless ness continues to increase, either the disrespect for the law and It's admin istration is increasing, or else the pen alties are insufficient.
 It is wrong that the auto should contribute so greatly to the list of unnecessary deaths throughput the state, but it rests, with the authorities to create among the careless drivers, and those who will be guided thereby, v the proper amount of individual re- sponsibility.

FRANCES PRorEsr.

That France should enter a protest against the proposition which this country has been considering, of pur- chasing the idle German vessels which have been obliged to tie up in Amer ican ports to prevent capture, is not surprising. While the step was con- cefved without any intention of vio- lating our position of neutrality and purely for the purpose of restoring our demoralized trade te foreign fields, yet as France points out. those vessels have been rendered useless through Stte war measures which the allies have taken. To remove them from that position and place them under the American flag, which unless they carried contrabands of war would give them protection, would as- sist in getting the German shipping interests out of a bad predicament and provide millions for the carrying on of the war.
 The country has taken a stand for neutrality which 1t must maintain. Its purpose is not to contribute an ad- vantage to either side and the position taken by France in this ship deal is one which cannot be slid over without proper consideration. It can be read fly understood that cash Is much pref erab1e to idle ships, which have been forced into idleness, and. regardless of who the owners might be. as long as they are concerned in the war wherein we have declared our neutral ity. the government will undoubtedly realize the necessity of proceeding with the caution which that declafa- ton imposes. We cannot afford to get mixed up in this European catas- trophe.

many another community might take up with beneficial results.
 There Is no department which cov- CTS a. city so thoroughly and has the influence as that of the police. They are In a position to observe where ina- provementss should be made for the betterment of all sections in the way of sanitation and for the disposal ot unsightly litter and rubbish. and such service should be taken advantage of. Many are the cases where an arrest is not warranted. but where some in- fluence is needed to check repeti- ton and such is obtainable either through the direct warning which the police can give or if the exercise of such authority needs to be better guarded, it can be made by the prop CT authority from the reports Of the police.
 With reports of such a character be- ing made daily for every section of city great impetus to the movement for keeping a city attractive and clean could be gained.

AN IMPRoMPTU VASE.

One of innumerab1e inventions as the outcome of necessity in the words of the old adage is an impromptu flower pot or vase covering made from plotting paper. Sometimes one may chance only to have a cup, even a bottle, baking powder can or a tin pail when blossom or a bunch of wild flowers is at hand, as when travelling, in a bungalow, a. summer boarding place or even at an office desk.
 A piece of leaf green. plotting paper cut tall enough to support the stems, pinned. glued or fastened in cylinder with letter clips, and stood over any honely receptacle which will hold water becomes a pleasing flower holder, in effect.
 Hence few sheets of green plotting paper may not come aniss. if packed in the bottom of a trunk when starting for a summer outing.

DRAW CURTAINS.

Draw curtains should be at least once and a half the width of the win dow. The curtains should always be fastened at the lower outside corner to prevent their blowing into the room when the window is open. If one does not care to have the curtains drawn together they can be made of single strips of material with French headings and gathered into a space a little broader than the casing. or they may simply be run on a rod through a. beading.

TEST FOR SILK.

Why did your last years silk split and crack? Because it was weighed. You might have tested it easily before purchasing and saved both money and worry. A bit of the silk and match are all you need for a sure test. Light the match and apply 1t to the fabric. If 1t holds its shape the silk is adulterated with some of the various minerals so used. If it meIts down in burning and runs together in a puffy, mass the silk is pure. This is one of the tests given in the corre- spondence course in fabrics offered by the University of Wisconsin.

It is worth while to let a pint of milk sour from one day to another for the breakfast griddle cakes, because cakes made from sour milk and soda are so much superior in hghtness and texture to those made of sweet milk and baking powder. A recipe that can always be relied upon requires a pint of sour milk in which a, teaspoonful of soda has been dissolved, two cup- fuls of flour sifted with half a tea spoonful of salt and one of sugar, two eggs and two cupfuls of flour. Beat the eggs separately, mixing the milk, four and yolks and beating to a smooth batter, and, last, add the stiffly beaten whites. This batter makes excellent cakes without eggs.
