SIMPLE AND EASIER TO DO
Tramp's Method Not Altogether Un-

Many Others

Hoboes came up for discussion in .
Washington club the other night. and
Senator Nathan F. Bryan of Florida
told this anecdote along the Weary

Some time ago hobo meekly tap
ped on the back door of a suburban
home and asked for something to eat.
The good housewife responded that
she would feed him on the back step
along with Fido, providing he was
willing to earn the meal by cleaning
out the gutter.
The tramp agreed. and when he had
eaten his way through several sand
wicbas to feeling of happiness, the
housewife came out with reliable
looking hoe.
You needn't have gone to that trou-

the farm implement. II never use a

ERs OF AMERICA.
A. Least One Dish May Well Be
served At Dinner--Many Msthods
Of Cooking Maearoni-Tomato
Sauce with Spaghetti.

American housekeepers anxious to
keep down the market bills have
learned the advantages Of serving at
each dinner one dish containing some
OF the Italian pastes. which are low In
price. nutritious and appetizing.
The American way OF cooking spa
ghetti is to combine II with American
cheese chopped. butter and little
milk beaten with eggs. The spaghetti
is first cooked until It Is soft; then
drained OF the water. and the cheese,
butter and eggs already mixed are
beaten lightly into the hot paste. The
mixture is then baked to a golden
brown in the oven. A porcelain lined
baking dish Is best, though some pre-
fer the old-fashioned yellow stone
ware.
Macaroni cooked and then simmered
in good meat broth until tender also
mixes well with grated Gruyere cheese
mixed In the baking dish in layers.
finishing off the top with a thick layer
OF the cheese and some grated bread
crumbs and butter.
Another dish is made by adding this
mixture to the already cooked maca-
roni: One onion, little parsley and
six anchovies chopped up together.
Fry this in the pan with butter for
about six minutes then add II TO the
paste with half a glass OF good white
wine and an equal amount OF fish
broth. Sprinkle with paprika and
grated Parmesan cheese.
Here IL a simple dish called taglia-
telle. Make a good paste with flour
and eggs. roll out thin and cut in
strips half an inch wide; parboil In
salted water. Cut a slice of ham In
squares; mince the same amount OF
carrots and celery and brown them In
pan with butter Add strained toma-
toes or tomato paste and a cupful OF
broth. Serve on a hot dish all to-
gether. the paste seasoned with grated
cheese.
The Italian method of serving spa
ghetti. which is most popular in this
country, is in combination with tomato
sauce. The Neapolitan sauce Is made
In many ways. A good and simple
recipe calls for a quarter of an onion.
half a stalk of celery, few leaves OF
bay and bunch OF parsley. Cut these
up fine together. Add a cup OF olive
oil. a pinch of salt and one of pepper.
and eight tomatoes cut up without the
skins. Boil this until the sauce is like
n cream; then strain and pour over
the spaghetti. Sprinkle grated cheese
| on top.
The Italian cook prepares the potato
with all the state of rarer vegetables,
| adding cinnamon, nutmeg, saffron and
: herbs of all kinds. In one recipe you
are told to wash half dozen potatoes;
| peel of strip of the skin; put them
! In saucepan and cover with water to
boil When they are mealy peel and
mash them. put them in a saucepan
add an ounce of butter and piece OF
I fresh bread soaked in milk. Add two
[ tablespoonfuls of milk. three eggs
beaten to froth, yolks and whites
separately; salt, pepper and a little
grated nutmeg. Mix well and put In
a baking dish. Pour melted butter
over; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese
and brown before serving.

ten or more years later the courts
may tell what that union exemption
provision in the antitrust law really
means, which leads one advocate Of
labor organization to express fears
after this fashion:
"Some labor unions will suffer
heavy expenses, some worhngmen
will go to Jail and many lawyers viii
profit because the lawmaking power
botched its job"
There's no doubt about this. It
took twenty years to discover that
the Sherman antitrust law was no
good, and IN reaching even this ulti-
matum the Supreme Court had to re-
verse itself and read into the law
intent against which Congress had
particularly declared itself.
Of course, this presumed exemp-
ton will mean expense and time IN
Jail for union men, and surely profit
for lawyers. But what could you ex-
pect from a law-making body don1i-
mated by lawyers and largely COM
posed of lawyers? Look at the hun
dreds of additional lawyers turned
out by every state every year. They've
got to eat. Pass laws about which
there can be no doubt and you re-
duce or obliterate the need of law
yers and courts. 1t is ridiculous to
expect such ''unprofessional con-
duct" on the part of lawyers who get
into Congress. You might as well
hand the lawmaking over to dentists
and expect of them laws requiring
every man to pull his own teeth, or
to shoe dealers and expect from them
laws requiring everybody to go bare
foot.
There was a way to make this pro-
vision for union exemption certain,
indubitable and incontrvertible, mere
ly by the use of few plain English
words in its framing. But, as in most
other cases involving human liberty

ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY-N. D. COCHRAN

Louisiana PoIitics.-ProgressiVes
are now shouting for joy because
some Louisiana politicians are leaving
the Democratic party and joining in
with the Bull Moose. But, they'll laugh
out of the other side of their mouths
before they get through with the deal.
Those who are leaving the Demo-
cratic party are high-tariff Demo-
Gratis, who believe in everything the
high-tariff Pennsylvania Republicans
believe in; and they are now sore be-
cause the remainder of the country
is being benefited at their expense by
tariff bill that deprives them of
special privilege.
They are about as progressive as
Boies Penrose, Murray Crane and
Bill Barnes.
They have been Democrats solely
on the race question; and if the re-
dictionaries of the south are going to
the Bull Moose, wen have two white
parties in the south, with progress
sives lined up with the Democrats
provided, of course, that Wilson can
keep the Democratic party progress
sive.
1t will be good thing if the solid
south is busted wide open, and two
parties develop-one conservative
and the other progressive; but it
won't make reactionaries progressive
by calling them Progressives.
The Democratic party might be in
for long run of power if the same
kind of Democrats in the north made
the same move and got over into
either the G. o. P. or the Bull Moose
party.
The Progressives made good start
in 1912, but with Perkins in the north
and high-tariff reactionaries in the
south, really progressive Progressives
will begin to have some doubt about
that splendid platforms sincerity.
