THE WEEK NIGHT SUPPER.

For children and aged persons who
retire early, the heavy meal at noon
is much better, and light, easily d.
gested meal at night, which will not
interfere with a good nights rest.
There are still unwise people who
think the more they eat the more
strength they win have, forgetting
that we are only able to take UP the
necessary amount of nourishment, and
the rest is wasted, as 1t clogs the sys.
tenn and uses up the machinery.
Eggs which are soft cooked in any
desired form or combination make an
easily digested dish. Omelets are the
favorite method Of serving eggs. One
who is able to turn out good ome-
let is no mean artist.
Rice custard, cup custards and any
baked variety OF custard, il baked
carefully, are both wholesome and
easily digested dishes for both chill
dren and the aged.
Boston brown bread and butter, with
a glass OF milk or cocoa. is a good
meal.
Buttermilk and ginger bread, with
bit Of brown bread, is another COM
bination which is sufficiently nourish-
ing.
Neither coffee nor tea are beverages
that are harmless. and should never
be given to children. When they tire
OF milk, a cup of chocolate or cocoa
or Of cocoa nibs may be served occar
sionally without injury to the diges-
ton.
For those who are able to digest
simple potato salad, here is one worth
remembering: Put into dish Ia
biespoonful Of vinegar and four Ia
blespoonfuls Of Olive oil, a half tea
spoonful Of salt and quarter Of a
teaspoonful Of pepper. and stir well
until smooth and nicely mixed. Chop
four boiled potatoes while hot, and
turn into the dressing, and stir until
It is all absorbed. At serving time. II

Tariff Real Test.

/ This brings us 10 the browning achieVe-
ment OF the new freedom-the tariff act
Of 1913. 1t does not so as far as the
radicals wanted, but as far as the party
dared. In fairness it must be admitted,
however, TO furnish test OF the sound
ness OF Democratic economics.
The argument advanced in favor Of the
economic principle Of low schedules was
not any fine spun theory taken from the
textbooks OF political economists. but the
very specific and relevant assertion that
a low tariff would inevitably reduce the
cost Of living and would at the same time
give n new. a beneficial stimulus TO
American industries.
ut was idle for us 10 tell the people
that the tariff could not and did not
cause a rise in the cost OF living. which
was worldwide. The Democratic states
men did not hesitate: they made no
reservations. Elect them and they would
soon make short work of high tariff and
high prices both. Let them now make
good. There must be no hedging or side
stepping. The Democracy made a def
mite promise 1t has broken its pledge.
But, worse than their broken pledges
they have fulfilled our most dismal fears
and made US true prophet, at the ex-
pense of the country. At the risk of be-
ing branded calamity bowler, let me
submit for your consideration few sig
nihcant figures
During the first four months OF the
new tariff there were imported $47 10000
less Of raw material for manufacturing
purposes and 5000, 600. or per cent, more
of finished articles. showing conclusively
that the much advertised advantage
which our manufacturers were to derive
from free raw material had no basis in
fact when they were subjected at the
same time TO free competition in the fin
ished product.
I'm wool alone the increase in manu-
featured articles has been $4,000 and
IN wool cloths and dresses 100000, or
tho product of at least 1900 wage earn
ers. And yet we wonder at the number
of unemployed.
During the same period the imports
Of farm products have increased 3D,2)o,-
900. without as we have seen, reducing
the cost of living, but diminishing to
that extent the purchasing power OF the
American farmer.
What Of the glowing promises made
to the business men of the country by
President Wilson with reference TO
amendment Of the Sherman law-his cryp-
tic utterances on the doctrine Of the new
freedom? The only thing we have had
was a Presidential message OF faultless
rhetoric, which, when sought TO be put
into definite laws, called forth such
hostile and universal storm OF protest
that the four brothers we're never al
lowed 10 Join hands and romp with their
seven foolish sisters, but lie stillborn In
the lap of their bafiied Democratic mid
wife. Peace to their little souls.
IN the mean time. what has happened?
Capital is tlmid and hesitating conserva-
tism and retrenchment are widespread,
while initiative seems dead, earnings and
dividends are cut, new enterprises are
shelved. payrolls are locked and working
forces reduced.

Of the Supreme Court. Becker will be
tried before him, the trial beginning on
May 6.
Becker Wants to Testify.
II Becker has his way ne will take
the witness stand in his own behalf at
his trial Joseph A. Shay, who recently
withdrew as Becker's counsel said
yesterday that it was his intention TO
have Becker take the witness stand at
the second trial IL he had remained in
the case. He said that Becker and
Mrs. Becker were both anxious TO tes-
tify. Martin T. Manton and Bourke
Cochran, his partner, who succeed Mr.
Shay as counsel, declined to discuss
Yesterday any Of their plans for the
defence.
District Attorney Whitman would be
glad to have the opportunity TO cross
examine Becker. He said yesterday
that he would welcome the opportunity
TO have Becker explain how he came
in possession Of the large bank ac-
counts which were unearthed prior TO
the first trial, but which did not become
a part Of the court record because
Becker remained off the stand. 1t was
contended at that time that Becker
had about S75, 900 in various banks.
His counsel denied that Becker had
any such amount Of money at the time.
All his deposits would not amount to
$4,000 when properly accounted for
he said. The large amount on the Dis
trict Attorneys list was made up OF
moneys that had been withdrawn from
one bank and deposited IN another, so
that the Individual deposits had been
added twice, his counsel explained.
Mrs. Becker is said to be anxious to
corroborate her husbands testimony
in regard to the bank accounts. as she
feels that she can help him explain
them. Becker's friends say that he is
practically "broke" now, having spent
all his money in his defence at the first
trial.
Dresner asked Warden Hanley Of the
Tombs yesterday to transfer him to

Currency Law Revenge.

First. as to the currency law. How
much credit can We give the Democratic
party for constructive thought IN the
enactment Of this measure, always con-
ceding that il is entitled 10 a considerable
degree for putting II on the statute
books? Long before March 1, 1913, the
patient, comprehensive and scientific
labOrs OF the monetary commission, Gre
ated under a Republican administration
and acting under the leadership OF Re
publican Senator had furnished thirty
five volumes OF detailed statistical in
formation and an invaluable report Of
constructive suggestions
The work OF that commission has re-
NAMED unheralded and unrewarded; but
the fact remains that It furnished he
backbone and merit Of the present meas
ure. while the weakness OF the latter can
be traced directly TO traditional DemQ-
cratic banking and monetary notions-for
example, fondness for paper money in
the form OF direct government obligations

bursts of applause. Mr.. Mills first TOOK
up the currency law. whose backbone ana
MORT no pointed out had been furnished
by the Republican monetary commission
He then paid attention TO the income
tax, made possible, as he explained py
a constitutional amendment obtained ny

results of the tariff act Of 1913, which dld

Previous TO Mr.. Mills's address there
was considerable discussion over the ad-
visibility Of the county committee going
on record for or against the holding Of
a conference or unofficial convention in
Saratoga in August

by vote Of 25 TO ., voted down the propo-
sition of advocating such a gathering, 3.
B. Brown, Of the 9Th Assembly District,
introduced e resolution requesting the
state committee TO call such meeting.
This vote Of the executive committee,
many thought. showed that the New York
County Republicans had lined up with
District Attorney Whitman. one OF the
candidates for Governor, who is against
the holding Of an unofficial convention,
and was a slap at Mr.. Hedges.
Frederick c. Tanner. leader Of the 18th
Assembly District, introduced a counter
resolution, saying an unofficial state
convention this year would be against
the best interests OF the party and the
spirit Of the direct primary law
JOB f. Hedges, who is an avowed can
didate for the nomination for Governor,
spoke In favor Of Mr.. Browns resolution,
and on his suggestion Mr.. Tanner made
motion 10 shelve the motions for further
consideration two weeks from now This
was done.

the meeting, said in part:

He said. "A man there was his neighbours called him mad.
The more he gave away the more he had" Many religious
people have been somewhat skephcal as to the truth OF this
saving as to their benevolent gifts. The liquor men accept this
paradox literally and believe the more they give in taxes, reve-
nue. and license the more they have in actual wealth and they
are sure they gain in quoting the public conscience.
\ great revolution is now going on in the public sentiment
of our country. Many of the largest taxpayers, including
steel mills and other great corporations, will gladly accept ad-
diional taxes if need be, if the liquor traffic can be abolished.
The advocates of national Prohibition now include multtudes
of people who are able and willing to add to their taxes to
make up any deficiency caused by abo1shlng the saloon license
and liquor taxes. They believe, however, that instead of a de-
fciencv there will be a great gain and that everything lost by
abolshing state revenues from liquor will be more than made UP
in the prosperity of the people-Duncan {. Miner in Chicago
