HOUSEKEEPING.

Probably most of you have heard of the efficiency experts who go round to workshops and factories to learn how the methods used by the workers can be improved, so as to eliminate waste time and waste effort, and hence vast ed money.
 Well, one woman at least has follow ed out this idea in becoming a house keeping efficiency expert.
 She goes round from house to house and consults with the mistress as to what she can do to run her home to the best advantage on the money she is allowed and the time she has to give. She devotes special attention to the sort of food tor be served, pointing out the results to be obtained by various menus chosen according to their nutri- tive and palatable qualities. She looks out for waste in every direction, gives lessons in the most efficient cleaning methods, shows how the use of f1releSs cookers helps the meal problem, and suggests labor saving devices in the kitchen and laundry.
 In fact, she brings a trained mind to bear on the housekeepers manifold problems.
 You'd be surprised to see how in- telligent women waste their strength and time doine thines the wrong way .'' she said Si'They don't think things out.

CAN IT BE poNE2

More changes have occurred in Mex ico. Carranza has departed from Mexico City and set up his headquar- ters at Vera Cruz so that he will have an easy means of getting clear of the country if occasion requires, while at the capital two of the military fac- dans of the country have been brought together for the time being in the support Of single candidate.
 Affairs in the past give good ground for the belief that Villa and Zapata, representative of the north and south sections of the republic are in con- trol of the situation. They have de- clared their preference for Gutierrez for the presidency and have entered Mexico City in preparation for the setting up of the government over which he was selected by the peace conference to preside.
 a This step being accomplished it re- mains to be seen how long the minds of the military leaders of the country can be kept moving in the same chan neIs. It Is to be judged from past experiences that Gutierrez will he re- quired to act in accordance with the direction of these generals Even he must realize the importance of har- monizing the action which is taken, There is great need of placing the country's requirements first in order to straighten out the chaotic condi- tons of that republic. This means that Villa and Zapata must be kept think ing along the. same lines and in SUD- port of the same patriotic policy. Ii is no easy thing to do as Mexican troubles have disclosed yet it is the vital question there today. Even Mex leo has reason to wonder whether il can be done.

REllEE IS NErn-n

D-,rin~ tho month If October if is shown by figures given out by the in- ferstste conmeree commission that the operating revenue of ni7etv-tFree 'eading American railroads shows a decrease of $2n 00n nn0 comnnros v-'th the same month of last year. Tn the same month as the result of the in trodUctfon of economy, forced and otherwise. the roads were able to reduce their expenditures s13.000. 900 over October of last year. That shows, however that the operating revenue was decreased by seven million more than the roads were able to cut their expenses, and adds further cause for the granting of the relief asked by the roads of the east.
 This has all occurred since the ap- peal was made to the commission for a change fin rates and as the Spring. field Union says: "The present exas- Derating delay in the rate matter ought to teach forcibIy the lesson that 1t is of inestimable importance that the commission be in a position to move promptly and at the right time in bridging serious emergencies. It is scarcely believable that the commis- sion has voluntarily delayed decision, though prepared to dispose of the question intelligently. Such a theory is inconsistent with it's past zeal and effort to serve the public faithfully Tn any event the public has good cause to feel exasperated by the manner in which this case has 'drageed along Before any more commissions are cre- ated to regulate public affairs, let us see to it that those already established are in a position to do their work efficiently
 Unless something is heard from the commission soon the decision may drag along as did the former one, regardless of conditions.

Bursting Into Columns of Song.

A Close student of the European press during the present war notices enc temperamental difference between the French and all the other great na- tions engaged The English. German, and Russian papers (at all events. the Russian papers at the beginning of the war) have published a great deal of verse inspired by the war. The French papers have published little or none They have expressed all they need to express in lucid and In im- passioned prose, This difference is perhaps not a mere question of the mood of the moment At all times and as a matter of literary history the French are much less given to drop ping into poetry, as Mir.

TWO EXTREMES.

Numerous are the occasions where accidents in the highways occur through the failure of the drivers of other vehicles as well as autos to ob- serve the requirements of the law concerning lights and the failure of the authorities to see that they are en- forced. It is quite evident that if there was a proper regard for what is considered necessary in contribut- ing to the safety of highway travel there would be far less trouble and fewer accidents. What apparently is needed Is a disposition to meet the demands and that not being forthcom- ing there should be the proper exercise of authority to bring it about.
 There are, however, two extremes if the matter of lights on vehicles using highways, for while there is danger. from the unlighted bicycle, wagon or automobile there is also as I1t1ch trouble experienced from the too powerful lights which many autos car ry. Except for the driver of the cars to which they are attached, these searchlights have shown by the acci- dents which they have caused that their dazzling briIliancy is as much nf a menace to highway travel as the absence of a light. Such lights may light the way, but they blind the plhcoming drivers to such an extent that control is lost and there is no telling what may happen.
 1t is quite evident that every vehicle should carry a light, out it is equally Important that it should be of a sen sible character which will not over dc all that it was intended to accom- hLish and the drivers of autos should De the first to recognize the merits of the opposition to the blinding lights One extreme is as bad as the other.

 The progress of the Austrian cam paign of invasion is likely to deter mine very soon the attitude of the Balkan states. Austria needs to push into Servia but a short distance fur ther to establish a line of communica- tion with Turkey, if Bulgaria does not oppose the crossing of her territory, and upon this point hinges the continu- ance or discontinuance of neutrality by the Balkan states.

A FRiLLY APRON.

In days of yore. when grandmother or even great grandmother engaged in or directed the great amount of cook ing that was needed by her household, she approached the task enyeloped in a huge apron from shoulder to foot. And sometimes the length of the apron was augmented by vast width of gathers so that not even the tiniest speck of her frock could be touched by the cookery. But the apron of this de- sign has passed info oblivion, and now adays when milady cooks she uses a dreless cooker or a gas stove, minus ashes and dust. This for the substan- tial dishes ith which she spreads her board.

HE INVASION OF sERvIA,

With a display of control which has been unusual. the Balkan states have refrained from a general uprising in the present European war. They have been on their tfptoes and there has been evidence of uneasiness at dif- ferent times, with realization that only a little would be required to se- cure the entrance of Rumania, Bull garia and Greece, but at the present time they are not involved.
 Whether the capture of Belgrade end the. invasion of a large part of servia by the Austrians will change the situation remains to be seen.

. RATED TOO HIGH.

There are some in the progressive party who are bearing up we'll under adverse circumstances and who are disposed to smile when everything goes dead wrong but it can hardly be looked upon as being more than a dying struggle--a display of bravado and fight just before the end.
 Those who assembled at Chicago were inclined to take solace at the number of votes which were received for progressive candidates throughout the country at the November election. Though the total number showed a tremendous drop from that of two years previous and was nearly all gained from one section of the coun- try, it afforded opportunity for the interpretation that has been given it, and such is the basis upon which the rarty is being continued. The rating however, is too high.
 Sight seems to have been lost of he fact that a large part of the 1912 progressive vote was personal vote for the party leader. Whatever may have been his opinion relative to the defiections which occurred following that election. he continued in the f1eht to and through the contest last month. There was a tremendous melting away If the following and the worst sort If a drubbing was administered in his own state. It even placed a check upon all political utterances from that source. and of those who upheld the third party in November many leaders and candidates have since nutl'clv re- turned 10 the repuh'icar fold Such heinz the case with progressives of Shat decree it is not too much to be- ,ieve that there have beeh far greater 1ef7ectiors amorg the rank and file.

] THEN-and-NOW

Today about per cent. of the 900,000 individuals who die in the United States annually are incin- erated in the thirty or more crema- toriums located in more than half of the States. Ten years ago the ratio was about one-hah of one per cent. The movement toward uni- versal cremation Is gradually spreading throughout the world. matoFiume, Germany disposing of S,853 bodies by cremation in 1912 Conceded to be the place of resur- rection Of the ancient practice, Italy leads tho world in percentage of cremations, while during 1912 the city of St. Gall. Switzerland, re- ported that of the bodies of 353 i'm dividuals who died there, 2o1 were thus disposed of. England Is lean ing toward the practice. The au- thoritieS Of Westminster Abbey, the repository for Great Britain's be- roes, recently prohibited the burial of more bodies there. They must be creEated. Cremation is becom- ing a necessity, especially around the large eenters of population. de- clare advocates the practice.

Thirty eight years ago Sunday the first scientific cremation in the United States took place at Wash ington. Pa. The pioneer cremator was Dr. r. Julius Le Moyne. and the subject was the body of Baron de Palm. But the American prece- dent had been set eighty-three years before when under penalty of loosing legacy of 6O,000 pounds Laurens, South Carolina'S ReVolu- tionary patriot, consigned his fGth- er's body to a funeral pyre. The ghastly experience of seeing his infant child come to life just before burial in the earth is said to have been responsible for Laurens' de- mand to be cremated. The origin of cremation is lost in the days of unrecorded history. It was practiced sporadically by the re-Christian civilizations, except in those coun- tries whose religion, just as do some religions today, forbade it's practice. The Pharsees were Wor- shippers of fire. but prohibited cre- nation because of the opinion that the fire was thus polluted. The Greeks and the Romans practiced cremation, while the Egyptians con sidered it an act Of organism and disposed of their dead by earth burial The revival of the practice in Europe in the 17th century was greeted with horror by the medieval peasants. Kings prohibited 1t under penalty of torture. Sir Henry Thompson introduced cremation iIa- to Great Britain shortly after the American Civil War. Using a re- verberating furnace, he reduced a body weighing IA pounds to pounds of lime dust within fifty minutes Encouraged by Thomp- sons success, Dr. Le Moyne in- stalled an improved incinerator in small one-story brick structure on hill overlooking the town of Washington. Three years after his pioneer cremation, he died and was cremated in his own institution.

The best treatment for a sprain is hot water. It relieves the soreness and reduces the inflammation. Absolute rest is necessary. After bathing the injured part with hot water it should be bandaged and kept with witch hazel. If the sprain is very bad this treatment may ben used until the doctor arrives. Always keep a bottle of tincture of ammonia in the house to be used in case of bruises, cuts or wounds. Wet cloth with it and apply around the i'm jured spot. It will be found to be cooling and soothing.
