Sd. and Ensign Nudge, commanding
the 4th Division, both were publicly
commended last Thursday night by
Commander Dempf for the fine showing
they made in attendance.
Although the U. 8 s. Sylvia, training
ship assigned to the local naval mill

out in the two steam launches and
the motor boats for instruction in
handling these small craft. They were
taken up in the Georgetown channel.
where they engaged in signaling, max
ing landings with small boats, compass
reading and other forms of seaman
ship.
The Sylvia. under the command of
Commander Dempf. is scheduled to
leave her dock at 8 o'clock for a cruise
down the river for instruction pur-
poses. 1t probably will return to the
dock at the foot of Water and Q
streets southwest at o'clock.
In charge of Coxswain w H Boteler
the new steam launch, assigned to the
Sd Division, will make practice cruise
also.
The 4th Division OF the battalion,
answering the challenge of the Sd

not compete with that organization
However. the 4th Division offers to
race the lighting Sd" at some date
when in the opinion of the command
ing officer of the 4th Division the crew
"is in readiness
In the reply to the challenge, said
Lieut.. Sigourney, there is no attempt
to set a date. further than to intimate
that the race will be rowed when the

visions are somewhat deficient along
these lines it is to be realized that
this is not a sailors drill The only
time it would be used is in landing
forces, such as were put ashore at
Vera Cruz. and in parades. However
it is probable that Commander Dempf
will give the next three or four drill
nights up to perfecting the men, among
whom there are great many recruits

Dr. Reardsley Has Been
 Public Speaker 40 Years

pr. Benjamin F.. Beardsley. Of Hartford. who speaks in town on next Sunday, has a record Of over 40 years upon the public platform. This is a long record for one in the professions and proves that such a one must have something worth while to offer to the people.
 Dr. Beardsley is giving much Of his time this winter to going over the state and speaking to gatherings of mothers on Our Boys and the Dam gers That Confront Them.'' This ssd-. dress deals with the things of life that naturally come to pass and that could be made so much easier if the mother but thoroughly knew her pos stbaiities in the way Of helping her son.
 The affair is to be held in the ladies' patrlor Of the Young Mems Christian association, at 3:30 sunday aftern on. and it is hoped that many of the mothers will accept the invitation and be present.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

If possible, all market packages should be opened out on the back porch or in the laundry, as there are sometimes reaches that lind their way 1 into the kitchen by means of the gro- cers' packages.
 The housekeeper who must do her own dishwashing on cold, windy days should remember that q cut lemon kept convenient and rubbed on the hands after each dishHashing will save her from rough hands
 Many housewives have benoaned the fact that their tarts and pies do not have the delicious brown desired. Always keep in your cupboard small pies over with milk just before putt ting them in the oven.
 If you desire to purchase a box of oranges and fear that they will not keep, follow these instructions: Re
 move each orange and wipe 1t with a dry cloth, then wrap with a piece of waxed paper. Place the oranges loosely in a box or barrel, and they will be preserved for several months.
 To make a small portion of nayon- naise dressing go g long way. add it by the spoonful to the beaten white of all the dressing has been used. Eight teaspoonsfu1 and the wflfre of one egg will make enough dressing for chicken salad to serve six persons.

Ih the markets there is aI- ways the choice between the fresh and the near-fresh produce, and there Is always waste if the ne@f-xresf1 comes into your pantry.
 It is economy foF the house keeper to buy celery by the bunch rather than by the stalk. The outside pieces make a delicious dish steWed, while the perfect inside pieces can be served raw. Do not throw away the celery roots: if the outside is pared off, the inside will stew perfectly. Also it can be eaten raw like inside celery.
 If the table cloth is quite. clean, ex- cepting one or two spots, slip folded towel between the tab1ecloth and the padding and on the towel place an empty bowl, having the stain directly over the bowl Pour boiling water through the stain until 1t fades away Place another towel over the wet piece and iron until dry.

son at the same stations but less than the cost of fattenfng chickens in No vember and December. Hens cost TT cents per pound in 1911 and 10.3 cents in 1912, into the feeder, so that their flesh can be bought cheaper than produced at this time of the year. Cheaper gains were secured m ,fattening hens in 1911 on the ratfons used in fattening chickens than on a ration of corn chop with 16 per cent.s of shorts mixed with buttermf1l-s
 Chickens cost 17.6 cents per pound into the feeder. in July, 1s11, while the gains cost cents per bound at this time; in November, 1911, they cost g cents per pound into the feeder, and gains cost 10.5 cents per pound. This influences the profit in fatten- ing and the best length of time to fatten, making it advisable to feed longer in the first part Of the season.
 The cost of picking, grading. and packing (inciuding freezingl was about cents per head, making the
 ed poultry in July. 20.5 cents, which gradually decreased through the sea- son to 1Ss1 cents in November, 1911.
 The best results were secured with the following three ratl0nss No I i,
 parts of corn meal. parts of low grade wheat four, and part of shorts: No. 2, 3 parts of corn meal and 2 parts of low grade wheat flour and No. 3. parts of corn meal, 3
 parts Of 1owgfade wheat flour. part of shorts, and 5 per cent. of ta1low.
 The same feeding value is secured in
 a ration of parts of corn meal and 2 parts of oat flour but at an increas- 1 ed cost, ,sof 37 cents per 100 pounds of gain. Four parts of corn meal, of low-Erade wheat four, and 1N Of shorts gave very good results during the latter part Of the feeding sea son, or in cool weather, that is, the
 proportion of corn meal and low grade. wheat flour may be increased | in cool weather
 The bulletin goes into considerable detail regarding the average price of grain and buttermiIk used in feed ing experiments and also gives in de- tail an account of the equipment
 management and methods of feeding
 IlIustrations are given showing the general arrangement feed mixers and an exterior view of a model we'll equipped plant showing complete ven tilatfon which can be easily controIl- ed; and the exterior of small fat tenfng station with feed-roon In the rear. Other illustrations show indi- vfdua1 birds which are good and poor types of feeders. A very good feeder has a short, thick head; a poorer type has a crowlike shape head. The bulletin also treats of gradinE pou1- try, shrfnkage in dressing, initial cost of chickens as affecting profit in fat tening, relation of grain fed to xna- nure produced. etc.

BEAUTY CHATS
THE CARE or YOUR NECK.
2 BFBIanche Beacorl.

The bid adage Beauty is asz beau ty doess should be transposed into Beauty is IF beauty does"
 There is no royal road to beauty, any more than to learning; beauty up-keep is a matter of eternal vigil
 A beautiful face usually goes with a shapely throat rising like a graceful column to support the head.
 When the face is given it's daily treatment the neck should follow nat urally in turn. yet the average woman usually ignores her throat except 70 bathe it. She rarely ever messages it. seldom. thinks of going through any beautffying exercise, and is onlF< moved, to care for it when discolora- tions from a tight collar remind her that she had best bleach it with di- Iuted peroxide or soothe it with coll d cream. This is about the extent Of the care she lavishes upon this part of her anatomy which is so indicative of her health and age
 Some months ago gave my list of contour building exercises. but for fear you may not now have them I will reA peat them These exercises directly adEect the muscles and if practiced night ana morning they will prove very benedcia1; remember to take them slowly, never hurry with them or the effect is lost
 Slowly extend the head as far back as possible, holding it there for a sec- oud or two. then bringing the head forward with the chin as far down on. the chest as possible. Take this ex- ercise at least a. half dozen times. Ex- tend the head to the left, then to the right. going so far each way as is possible holding the shoulders erect; this is an important detail Now relax the muscles of the neck, as it were. and let it's own weight take it around in complete circle. Close the-eyes while doing this so it will not have the tendency to make you dizzy.
 If your neck is too thin you will find massage an effectual means of pumping it. Sometimes the progress is slows yet in q great measure depen- dent upon the frequency of correct 1nassaging- Start at the base of the throat and work upward and around in circles This will increase the cir eulation and stimulate the underlying tissues.

THE LACE VEIL A e
 SPRING NECEssTTY.


 The lace veil must not be overlook ed for Spring It is a natural accom- panirnent Of the lace trimmed hat, and the trend in lace Influences the fash ion in vef1s. It therefore goes with out saying the newest in veils is the ChantfIls, since Chantt1ly lace is and 1as been the favorite for hat trimming t6n some time
 The Chantil1y veil is most becon, ing in the new range of co1ors, Among The smartest of which is dead Ieaf'' brown, a color which iss by the way. very strong this season in all dress and hat accessories Taupe, while no longer a novelty is still excellent for yelling and is selling well for early Spring trade One of the newest mesh es is illustrated herewith. It will be observed that while the net is fgur- eds it has none Of the absurd designs which dishgure rather than beautify the wearer, but has a well designed border and small unobtrusive design at Intervals over its entire surface.
 SSE1ow lace yeils will continue strong. particularly in colors to har- monize with the costume, and of course the well dressed woman who is wearing slace or lace-trim hat. Etu be sure to see that her veil will harmonize not only in color. but in texture with the lace on her hat.
 The present style of hat is greatly improved by the addition of a smart veil, and the new colored veils are so much more becoming than black ones that ft is obvious that veiIs will play en irnportant part in the fashions of GprfnR.-<Thh 1Ilustrated zrflliner. New Naxl-
