SEQ" inquired Ruth's sister, as she
was trying to cut butter that had
been upon the ice for a long time.
Every cold butter is likely to do so
unless you know how to cut it proper

just as we'll learn how to cut it prop
erly right now. Let me show YOU"
And taking piece Of waxed paper
in which the butter had been wrapped,
she put it over the sharp edge of the
knife and cut into the butter. The
butter did not crumble, break in piec-
es or stick to the knife, but separat-
ed in nice, smooth layers, as good
butter should.

Orchard and Garden Notes

There is still time to plant phlox,
iris and peonies.
| So far as it is. possible it is we'll to
prepare fowerbeds for next years
use now.
Carrots and beets keep better if a
little dry sand is put over them. This
prevent drying out.
A cool cellar is the best place for
cabbages. Hang them up or wrap
them in paper and lay on shelves.
See that the sweet corn saved for
next years planting is stored in a
wellaired place where it will not
freeze.
The branches of currant bushes
should be drawn close together and
tied to prevent the snow from break
ing them down.
While many raspberries will come
through the winter without protec-
ton it is always safer to lay them
down and cover them with earth.
AS soon as the frost kills the foil
age of grape vines they may be prun-
ed back and laid on the ground ready
to be covered with earth. They
should be covered before the ground
freezes.
| Remove all trash and rubbish from
the garden. If convenient, it is we'll
to pillow or spade the land that will be
used for garden next year. This will
help to get rid Of many insects and
weeds. Leroy Cady, associate horti-
culturist, University Farm, St. Paul,
Minnesota.

4 WORD FOR MOTHERS

It lis grave mistake for mothers to neg
lect their aches and pains and suffer in
silence-this only leads to chronic sick
ness and often shortens life.
If your. work is tiring;if your nerves are
excitablc; if you feel languid, weary or
depressed, you should know that Scott's
Emulsion overcomes Just such conditions.
It possesses in concentrated form the
very elements to invigorate the blood,
strengthen the tissues, nourish the nerves
and build strength.
SCOTS is strengthening thousands of
mothers and will help you. No alcohol.

ANXIOUS DAYS
 COUNTESS CURz0N Husband Is Third Officer on
 the Queen Elizabeth
DESCENDANT OF HOWE
Ancestor Led Troops Against Ameri- cans in RevolutiOn--Has Been in Navy for Some Years-TOOk One
 Fling ill Politics; Got Licked

London, December 5.-(Special. .)-Like so
 many millions of other women. the world over England's acknowledged "o2ueen of Beauty is living life that is one long suspense, nowadays. She is Viscountess Curzon, and her young husband Lord Curzon (who is quite a different person from the famous ex-Niceroy of India), is third in command of the Queen Eliza beth," biggest of British's superdread- naughts, which is known affectionately throughout the navy as 'Lizzie.'' The lovely viscountess title of Queen of Beauty is more or less official. It
 was conferred on her when, a few years ago, Lady Randolph Churchill revived the Eglinton tournament in connection with her great "Shakespeare's England' show at Earl's court, and the viscountess was selected, out of all Britain's arstocratic fair ones, to watch the jousting by the armored knights on horseback from a
 raised dais, and afterwards to crown the victors with their laurels, in the olden style
 Right regally did the Queen of eBauty'' acquit herself of this duty. She is a daughter of the late Col Montagu Cur zon, a great uncle of her husband and married her handsome cousin in l907 in spite Cit is said) of the peadings of score of other rich and noble suitors. Today, though she is the mother of two children (to the elder of whom King Ed ward stood sponsor), she does not iooK much more than r, the age at which she was married. No woman in England was more admired than she by the foreign royalties who flocked to London at the time of the last coronation. Previous to the war, she took a leading part in the various picture balls that were so popu- lar. and since it began she has been &C., tive in many different forms of war work.
 To Americans, Viscount Curzon is espe- cally interesting, for his family name is Penn-his full name is Francis Richard Henry-and he is a direct descendant of that Lord Howe who commanded the British forces during the first part of the American revolution. notably at the battle of Bunker Hill, and who fell at Ticonderega. Oliver Wendell Holmes in his poem about that fight, referred scorn- fully to

which are the pride of the race. When Wolff scaled the famous heights of Abra- ham, he found a path heavily entrenched, which had to be climbed It was a real forlorn hope, and "A men were selected to undertake the job. Howe was placed in charge of this little party and led it so gallantly on that memorable dawn of September Is, 1759, that the fateful path was speedily in British hands.
 Bunker Hill formed another exciting chapter in his career. When leading the right attack on the side near the Mystic the terrible fire of the Americans moved down every officer and man in his vicin- ity, and for several seconds he was left in the middle of the carnage, the sole combatant still fighting. Later after de- feating the rebels at Long Island. Lord Howe captured and occupied New York. Like so many other dogged fighters in those, and other days, he met with but little gratitude from his country, for he had to come home and enter upon a long and invidious course of explanation of his conduct on many counts.

ing kimonos amuses the Japanese, be-
 cause these articles are Japanese under wear and produce much the same impress sion upon Nippon as would Japanese la dies appearing in Spokane with their cor sets outside. Japanese women never wear the gay kimono as an outer dress. They also confine the gaudy colors to girls ! under 15. The general hue and design of Japanese garments worn by western women contravene Japanese taste.
 Some Japanese danes, however, accord ing to s. Takagi, begin to feel the eff fects of loud foreign taste. Increasing preference has arisen among them fo1 louder tones in dress. No Japanese wom- an used to dare appear with the showy parasol that Japanese children and west ertn women affect, but now the feminine
 swells of the Mikado's empire use for
 eign parasols with gay embroideries and printed chintzes and calicoes.
 One cannot nowadays enter a Japanese
 shop without seeing evidence of western influence. Formerly business was carried
 on according to a credit system and far ing advertisements were regarded as signs of humbug, the merchant being content to sell if customers came and wished to purchase. Now the show window and the
 display of goods have arrived, everything is elaborate and ornate. and gay decora- tions and shouting advertisements abound.
 Another occidental invasion consists in increasing use of western inks and pens, hardly a Japaese merchant being minus
 fountain pen. The periodicals also show the outside influence The old magazines
 bad cover designs of some famous work of art. but the covers of the new ones carry advertising. The occidental cafe, beer nall and bar room make head stead fly in Japan. On the other hand, the
 reciprocal influence of east and west is shown in western women adopting the
 slit skirt with narrow bottom that .Iapa- nese femininity had worn for centuries. Kiping was at fault. Fast is east and west is west" that's right But never
 the twain shall meet''-thats not so.

latter county, being particularly fine.
 The late Countess Howe was a daughter
 of the seventh Duke of Marlborough, and
 a sister of the Dowager Lady Wimborne (whose son. now Lord Wimborne, raised the team that won back the interna-
 tional polo cup), and who once carried
 on a book-shop at which ecclesiastical works were sold.
 Viscount Curzon has now been in the
 navy for some years. He accompanied the present King and Queen to India in the Terrible" as a lieutenant for train ing purposes, and, previous to the war;
 was commander in the naval reserve When he married his beautiful cousin he
 was 23. Since then he has had one bout and lively one. in the political arena, when he undertook the hefty task of attempting to capture Battersea from John Burns, the famous labor leader. As might have been expected, he got bad beating. Whether he would get another today is questionable, for Burns anti war attitude has not increased his popu- larity nor has his persistent failure to
 uplift his voice in support of his coun- try's cause.
 FASCINATING STORY
 The story of the Howes Cor Penns) is a fascinating one. In the sea forces of Britain, particularly, members of the family have won the highest honors. and Lord Curzon can boast that he descends from a sailor who was the only British l naval officer who ever was offered a marquisate. It was the fifth Viscount Howe who played so prominent part in the American revolution. In the prior expedition to Quebec, under Wolff. Col onel Howe commanded the infantry bat talion. He subsequently became the cen
