SMALL COMFORT FOR WILSON
TONS Policies Repudlated by
the Voters.

The smashing fact OF the election
lies in its demonstration that the ma
tional Republican party is a revived
and forceful quantity. II has carried
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, re-
claimed Connecticut, and exhibited in
creased strength through the country.
The great Democratic majority in the
House of Representatives is cut to a
small margin. This result is the more
emphatic because it comes upon the
heels of strenuous efforts by the adj
ministration at Washington in the
states which have changed from the
Democratic to the Republican col
umn. In New York, for example, the
administration put forth tremendous
efforts in behalf of Glynn and Gerard,
candidates respectively for the COVER
norship and the senatorship. Half
the members of the cabinet went on
the stump in New York. and the Pres
ident himself by letters and personal
interviews took an active hand in the
campaign. In the face of the returns
from New York and elsewhere il now
becomes apparent that the Wilson adj
ministration is not the highly APP
proved and popular force that It has
been asserted to be. Democratic poll
cies have not won the country: by in
ference they will not command its sup
port In 1916.

WITH GINGER FLAVOR
MANY APPETIzlNe DESSERTS AT
COMMAND.
condiment Is Also Recommended for
Its HeaIth-GIvIng Properties
Should Have More Definite
Place In the Larder.

Preserved or canned ginger gives a
most interesting flavor to many des-
serts and really deserves a more def
mite place in the larder. sFor it can be
kept always on hand and therein pos
sesses a great advantage over many
other fruit aavors
Dates freed from their pits and
stuffed with slivers of preserved gin
ger, then rolled in granulated sugar,
are delicious sweetmeat.
Ginger Bavarian cream is a dessert
with an almost elusive flavor. To
make It chop half a cupful of pre-
served ginger into small bits and mix
it with half cupful Of strip. Then
add half a package Of gelatin. which
has been soaked and dissolved in a
cupfal of water. Whip a pint of cream
stiff and add 1t to the other ingredi-
ents. If necessary add chilli. Serve
with whipued cream, garnished with
bits Of preserved ginger.
Chopped preserved ginger can be
added to rice pudding before 1t is
baked to give 1t an unusual flavor.
For a baked custard ginger sauce
is delicious. Make 1t by simmering
cupful of strip to which a quarter
Of cupful of chopped preserved gin
ger has been added. Serve hot.
Ginger custard sauce is made by
simmering the milk from which the
custard is to be made with some
chopped ginger in it for is minutes.
Then strain and proceed with the
custard sauce in the usual way.
For ginger water ice boil a quart OF
water and pound and quarter of
graduated sugar together for five
minutes with the rind from four lem
ons and one orange Cool and add the
Juice OF the lemons and orange, strain
and freeze. Pound four ounces of pre-
served ginger to a paste and cut two
ounces into shreds and add to the ice
when it is hard. Pack for couple of
hours.
Ginger ice cream is made In this
way: Pound six ounces Of preserved
ginger to a paste and add slowly two
tablespoonfuls of lemon juice. Mix a
pint of cream with half a pound OF
graduated sugar and add slowly to
the ginger mixture. Press through q
fine wire sieve and freeze.

LIow to cIean White Eeathers.

White feathers Of any description
can be cleaned at home to look like
new at small cost. Take gasoline
and plaster of paris and mix the two
together to the consistency of whipped
cream. Dip the feathers in this mix
ture, squeezing and pressing them;
then hang in the open air to dry thor
oughly, and until the gasoline evapo-
rates. BE careful not to handle until
thoroughly dry; then shake well, and
the result will be a beautifully clean
and fluffy feather. White wings may
also be successfully treated IN this
manner. The gasoline must never be
used in room where there is light
or fire.

Wilson in 1916.

One result of the election is TO in
sure beyond certainty that President
Wilson will be the Democratic NOM
inee to succeed himself in 1916.
Champ Clark said, not long after
the election of 1912, that if Wilson
succeeded, nobody else could possibly
be nominated; if he failed. nobody
else would be willing to be nominated.
The record, as made up at the polls,
clearly points to the denominations
of the president, on the ground that
the nomination will not be in sufficient
demand to justify fight against the
administrations forces for it.

Back of the victory of the Repub-

Progressive party, that maladroit and
malicious combination of deception
and fraud. against the Republican
party and&he intelligence Of its fol-
lowing, has been shorn OF all its
pretense and stands out as repudiated
