Don't Overdo Scientific Management in
the Home.

In the July Woman's Home Compan-
ion Mary Hastings Bradley takes ex-
ception to the idea held by some that
food should be prepared in well-regu-
lated factories in order to save time and
trouble in homes She says that fur
niture- making and clothes making be-
long to the factory, but that the
preparation OF food will always be-
long to the home. She goes on:
.'The highest type of food efficiency
will be that which provides the highest
type of food with as little trouble as
possible, not that which provides not-so-
good food with the very least trouble.
And you cannot have the highest type
of food, by which ! mean of course, the
most nourishing, the most wholesome,
the most appetizing, without great
deal of home preparation.
"This, ! know, is just what the new
efficiency writer's contradict so unblush-
inglv. The article from which ] am
quoting, because il proclaims just those
theories of foodproduction which are
being Landed as modern and efficient,
offers in proof of its methods a very ex-
cellent-sounding meal: soup from can,
asparagus from another can, potato
chips from box, chicken roasted in the
rotisserie over the way, meringue glace
from the confectioner's, and salad.
''Now / have no objection to that din
ner. NY objection, and | feel behind me
the undying support of thousands OF
dinner eating American men, is with a
| lifetime of such dinners, an amending
replica of them, thin, potato-chipped
vista of relocated food and bakery
meringue | object to having that held
np before me in the sacred name of eff
Efficiency. One such meal is relaxation
and has its place in the scheme of
things, but the daily preparation of
them would be an outrage.
"'Think of Southern fried chicken and
/ hot rolls light as feathers, think of duck
stuffed with just that amount of onion
that the head of the house finds delight
full, think OF home-boiled asparagus and
baked tomatoes and broiled steak. think
of flaky pie crust fresh from the oven,
think of a thousand and one things
which make for your own pet taste and
appetite a,good dinner, and you will not
find these things in factories and rotisse-
ries. / have lived over the way from
the most skillful rotisseries in the world
and / am immensely appreciative OF
their excellenoes. but | would not absn-
don my home kitchen in their favor"

The Homer Fits
Company
To the Girl Who Wants to Sing.

In the June Woman's Home Com
panion contributor, who has had long
experience as singing pupil and opera
singer in Europe, writes an article en-
titled. ITO the Girl Who Wants to Sing,
in which he shows why so many girls
fail. who is to blame, what kind of tai
ent is needed. and where to study to
win success. Following is an extract.
"On this subject can speak very feel
ingly. for my own career just escaped
utter failure when | faced the realiza-
ton which no singer. no matter how tai
ented, can escape; ! mean the realiza-
ton that the master can do only ten per
cent. of the work. The pupil must do
ninety per cent. There are no good mas
tiers. there are only good pupils.
"My opening studies were made at
the Royal College of Music in London.
There / had two lessons week, and
never learned my music by heart. From
that institution ! went to Bouhle IN
Paris. For three weeks / worked with
him on the role of Mephisto in the first
act of Gounod's Faust" and at the end
of that time | had not memorized it. One
day Bouhie said to me: You are the
stupldest pupil ever had In my studio!
You may GO
"There was a situation! My hopes
and ambitions snuffed out by my own
thoughtless earelessnessl In that
moment realized that ! had left to him
the whole responsibility, instead of TAX
ing it with vital seriousness upon my
self. / must be the one to drudge, and
he could do no more than make sug-
gestions.
"When at last found words ! asked
for new trial. Only on one condition,
was this answer If in three days you
bring me the first act thoroughly memo
rized, and at each successive lesson after
ward You have learned another act you
may stay. Otherwise my decision
stands / did it. My career commenced
with that; l had acquired the habit of
study"

Moose Negotiate For Home Site 0n
 Main St. Corner

Bridgeport lodge, Loyal Order of Moose, is planning to have home and a building of it's own and for some time negotiations have been under way for the purchase of the property on the SC dthwest corner of Milan and Franklin streets. This property is owned by Hobart Brins- mad of St Louis. The latter is now at sea having sailed for Egypt on Monday. Before he sailed MT Brins- made left a deed of the property and the other papers necessary to it's transfer in the hands of his agent, Js3nil J. Ryburn- The latter admit ted today that negotiations for the sale ot the property had be en going on but said no definite agreement had been arrived at with the members of the Moose lodge.
 The price asked for the property is $2e, 900 Before sailing for Egypt, MT Brinsnade told a relative that an other Bridgeport society hads been making inquiries about the property if the Moose lodge did not buy it he thought the other society would. The property has about 100 feet front on Main street and 160 on Franklin street.
 The plan of members of the Moose lodge is to have a building fitted for stores or business purposes on the street floor a rathskellar for members of the order in the cellar, offices and club room on the second floor, and on a third story, d handsomely appointed lodge room. The local lodge of Moose is said to have the largest member ship of any fraterna1 order In the city
 One prominent member of the Moose lodge said today that the deal re- garding the Brinsmade property had been called off because the price was larger than the lodge wanted to pay, but he said the trustees were Ii ego tiating for another site just off Main street in the center of the city.

CLUE NOTEs.


 Dear Doctor:-Have been reading your Health Column for some time and find the articles so enlightening and helpful that I ask you to write one on Catarrh, it's cause, effect on system, it's cure, etc, anything you know will be helpful. I have had it in nose and throat and head for sew eraI years. but never so very bad un- til lately In the past year have taken up voice culture,and the catarrh interferes much with this. Is there any simple home remedies that are effectuai, etc? I have hesitated talk ing treatments or using catarrh rem edies, because of having read an arti- cIe once which stated that some of these catarrn remedies were injurious and that they contain ingre dients which some times cause the loss of the sense of smell. Is there truth in these statements?
 It is a we'll known fact among those who closely follow natures rules that all who keep their digestive and elirai- mating organs in good shape, and this means not only the stomach, the liver, the bowels and the kidneys, but also the skin and the lungs. are not easily effected by disease. Catarrh will not arise except after a cold and a cold would not come if there was no suit able soil. that is, impurities in the system. Keep out all waste matters by the right kind of diet, proper exer- cises, and hygienic measures in gen eral and there would not be catarrh. Constipation will induce colds and following catarrn more than anything else.
 In order to overcome catarrh it is nee essary to reduce and finally entire Iy remove the inflammation of the mucous lining in the nose and the throat. This can best be done by the practice of deep breathing exercises and how such exercises should be practiced have more than once ex- plained in my lectures. It is also fully described in the Home Health Club Book Vol. 3. Some of the catarrh treatments advertised are dangerous to take, because, even though they may temporarily influence the catarrh for the better, they may create other disturbances just as bad if not worse. I would under no circumstances rec ommend anything for internal or local use, which is dangerous to health. nothing containing strong or poison oIs insFedients- Properly selected tissue foods are safe and I believe would do you much good.

 untouched resources of Alaska, show ing the northern territory to be an empire actually ill the process u- building, a country where nature ha not yet even finished her work, and where man has scarcely begun to explore and utilize the great natur- al wealth.

AN INsDIOUs DANGER.

If the passage of the Alaska rail
 road bill now before congress is de-
 feated it will be owing almost en- | tirely to two causes, one the dense 1 ignorance of a majority of the mem l bers of that body who reside east of the Missouri river, and nine-tenths
 of whom could not on the spur of | tn moment tell upon inquiry as to whether the City Of Dawson is To-
 caJed in the Yukon or Alaska ter ritory: the other, by far the more insidious and dangerous, disguises bitter opposition behind a pretense Of extreme frtendhuess, and comes in the shape of a demand that gov erumeut control in Alaska should so far beyond the scope of the in- tent of the bill as originally draft ed, and whose advocates are using every effort to have amendments in troduced into 1t, the far reaching eff fleets of which, if they succeed, would only add to the opposition that has already developed, and be almost certain to defeat the amended bill in it's final passage.
 Many members of congress are doubtless opposed to the measure through honest conviction that gov erumeut ownership of any of the public utilities is undesirable, while the opposition of others can be di- rectly traced to an affilliation with the great moneyed interests of the country.
 Open opposition can be overcome
 in part by the showing that the sit uation in Alaska is peculiar and un- ique, having no relation to that in other parts of the country; that the action Of the government itself has driven capital out of investments in transportation lines which were once under way, and that it is but fair to the people or Alaska for the government itself to furnish them with the transportation facilities which they would have had had it not been for governmental action.
 The attempts to add any social istic conditions to the proposed law, if successful, will simply result in the defeat of the bill by the action of those who pose as warm friends of Alaska, eager to safeguard it's in terests.
