wHATsTARTED THE WAR.

WHAT'STARTED THE WAR.
In the first place a Servian
socialist got drunk and killed an
Austrian nobleman and his es-
cort Cor maybe it was his con-
sorD. Anyway, it was some
sort.
Austria then got hot under
the collar over the incident and
said to Servia: 'See here, now,
we don't want any of that rough
stuff. | want to be a father to
you. Come into the wo cd shed. !"
Russia was peeping through
the fence when she heard the
conversation, and, seeing what
was going on, said to Austria:
Don't you dare touch h a t
child. He's my kid and, any
how, you'd make a h-of
lookln' daddy"
You've got another think
comm" answered Austria. 81
don't like the color of your eyes,
anyway, and your feet don't
track besides, and | can lic k
you with one hand tied. F"
Bully Boy" says Wilhelm
of Germany. IF you can't
lick him, | can, and by gosh I'll
do it. I can lick anybody: I
can lick everybody. Wen take
him on together"
So Germany. slips up on
France when she amt looking
and lands with both feet in the
middle of Belgium.
Get off'n my anatomy"
says Belgium, "or I'll bite your
leg off. y
OUCH" seys Germany, "but
I'll get off when ] get ready"
THAT'S not fair, " says France
Take that, you slob," handing
Germany a hot one OH the snoct.
II hate a scrap says Eng
land, "but I can smash the jaw
of the guy that slaps my friend.
you don't hate it worse than
I do" says Japan, and S h G
squares off for a hand in the
game.
"Well, l guess you started it,
anyhow, says Wilhelm to Nick.
Just then everybody begins to
yell: You started it yourselfl"
and each one stuck out h Isl
tongue at the other fellow and
they all clinched and the little
fellows began to dance around
watching for chance to get in
a punch and run. And there
YOU are. New York Sun.

TO A FINISH.


at an early date will find no en-
couragement in the news treaty
between Great Britain, France
and Russia. Binding themselves
not to conclude peace separately,
the duration of the conflict is
made TO hang not upon the nee
essities of the weakest but upon
the interests and will of the
strongest member of the allan
ce.
Unless all the conclusions of
Admiral Mahan are wrong, sea
power must ultimately exert a
prodigious influence upon the
results of this conflict. Armies
may exhaust themselves in vain
80 long as the great navies of
the belligerents remain afloat.
Taken together, the fleets of
Britain and France are three
times as formidable as that of
Germany.
War is a contest also between
forces other then those that are
i'll arms. The combined wealth
of Great Britain and France, ex-
elusive of dependencies, is three
times Crater that that of Ger
many. British and French COM
merce, twice that Of Germany,
is proceeding, while that of Ger
many is paralyzed. No matter
what the ordinary fortunes of
war ON land may be, the time
must come insuch a struggle as
this when ths issue will have to
be met at sea. Even a triumph

nation shut i'll from its neigh

British Empire had a population
of 435, 100000. At its best, the

United Kingdom, exclusive of
all dependencies, is $1,000, 900,
600.
The new treaty of London can
have no other meaning than that
all the resources of men and
money of the greatest empire
ever known have been enlisted
for the war and are to be thrown
into the balance. 1t will take
time to make them available,
but with a resolute spirit behind
them it is certain that eventu-
ally they will bear heavily upon
their adversaries. The pros
pect is solemn enough to impress
even those who are at peace, for
is foreshadows Il strain upon
civilization as was never before
known. 1t is to be a contest

WARS SHADOW FALLS
ON AUTUMN BRIDES

The wartime" bride may have to
sacrifice her billowy bridal veil on
the altar OF the wsr-god. and II the
war-clouds hang much longer over the
lace-centers OF Europe she will have
TO make her bridal trousseau without
the establishment OF calenciennes or
torchon lace.
Only the finest laces. net. tulle or
maline. are used TO crown the bride
on her wedding day. and all OF these
filmy materials are made abroad. Much
OF the fine lace used In the United
States is made In Belgium. and Bel
GUM has more serious matters than
lacemaking TO think about just now.
France and Germany, too. send q
great deal OF lace TO America. but
since lace-makers have turned sol
diers there will be little lace TO ex-
port from the kaiser's land.
Handmade laces-made almost en-
tirely by women-may not feel the ef-
fects OF the war. as the women will
be In many cases the sole support or
their families while the men are
away fighting. and they must work
harder than ever at their looms.
So II ships are found TO bring the
product TO this country, the exquisite
handmade lace may be more common
and cheaper than the product of the
machines.

HOUSEHOLD HELPS

A tough piece OF meat or an anti
quated fowl can be cooked as tender
as the choicest cut II put on the stove
In one OF these new enameled steam
ers. This cooking kettle has much
to recommend 1t, for 1t is SO con-
structed that absolutely no steam can
escape and the meat is stewed or
steamed In It's own juices. The trick
is In the formation of the ring at the
top OF the kettle into which the cover
hts. making an alright vessel. In
this way all the juice and all the
flavor of the meat is retained. IL
cooked slowly the cheaper cuts will
De very savory and tender when they
are ready to serve.
When making pie, the Juice from
the fruit very often soaks through the
under-crust, and spoils the appearance
OF 1t. This can be prevented by
brushing the under-crust over with
the white Of an egg.
