cate that Germany had asked for the

however. this opinion is supported
only by circumstantial evidence.
The affect OF the announcement Of
Mr.. Whitlock's homecoming in diplo-
matte circles was heightened by the
knowledge that the recall Of diplo-
matte officials is frequently accom-
plished by the simple process Of sum
moning them home on leaves OF alb
sence and then neglecting to send
them back
Sec'y Of State Lansing insisted
Wednesday night, however, that no
significance is to be attached TO the
leave OF absence extended to Mr.
Whitlock. He authorized the follow
ing statement:
There is nothing political in the
fact that Mr.. Whitlock is coming
home on leave of absence. There is
no connection between this fact and
the case OF Miss Edith Cavell. The
department has known for two
months that Mr.. Whitlock was in i'll
health and that his physicians in Ger
many advised that he take rest. He
was therefore given the leave Of alb
sence and solely for the purpose stat
ed in the announcement from the de-
partment this evening"

Crust for One Pie.

inexperienced housekeepers often

three large tablespoonfuls OF sweet
lard; when we'll blended. moisten with
ice water, only sufficient to roll out.
Do not make pie crust soft or wet: II
you do IL will be hard and tough. and
not fiaky, as il should be. This must
be rolled thin, and is ample for an IN
der and upper crust.
PimentO Sandwich.
Use one can OF pimentoes chopped
coarse and eight eggs boiled twenty
minutes. Let the eggs get perfectly
cold, then chop quite fine and salt
plentifully. There should be as much

gether and moisten with salad dress
ing made with but little sugar. Cut
the bread thin, butter one side o. II.
and spread the mixture on the other
half. This amount will make about
thirty sandwiches.
If you do not use all OF the pimento.
take what remains from tie can, cover
and set in a cool place, when you can

poured chlorine gas into the Allies
trenches In France, according to DR..
W. r.. Mclaughlin. n physician and
scientist who served In the Spanish war
and now has n laboratory at 1925
Atlantic avenue. Brooklyn.
Thu doctor says he originated the
idea. lie also says he offered the
plan to Charles NJ Schwab Of the
Bethlehem Steel Company. but Mr.
Schwab did not take II up because there
was no manufacturing for him to do.
DR.. Mclaughlin is a graduate Of the
University of Texas. where his father
was a regent. and also OF the College
Of Physicians and Surgeons.
Whether or not the Germans learned
OF DR.. McLaughlin's idea and developed
II themselves Dr. Mclaughlin Ia un-

bassy declined to take the suggestion
the doctor dropped 1t.
