vsniaelos has received has indicated the yundercurrent of public opinion and even though the king has been Huroessful in his opposition to his poifcaes 1t has not been sufficient to alter it. Rather has succeeding events brought added support to veniaeloa and the cause of the en- tente; powers and it has only been necessary for Bulgaria to start it's operations for the control of north eastern Greece in order to crystalize that feeling and to. cause it to spread and manifest itself in open revolt against Constantine and his pro- German tendency.
 If Greece hesitates until Bulgaria changes it's allegiance from the Teu- tons to the entente. it is bound to give its arch enemy an advantage which it will never be able to surmount. This is fully realized not only by the great Greek leader but by the people in general and for that reason the revo- lution which has been started and which has grown so rapidly has a significance which cannot be over looked.

VALUE OF FIGS,

Figs are becoming a national deli cacy. Little need be said of their medicinal value, save that as laxative they are particularly good for children and are advisable to use as part of the daily diet. Preserved skinless figs are delicious and may be bought in jars or cans. Many like them for breakfast with hot buttercd rolls or with the natural syrup drained off and cream substituted. Have you ever tried fig pudding?
 One-half pound figs, two pints milk, three heaping tablespoonfuls curn- starch, two heaping tab1espoonfuls sugar, three eggs, one-nalf teaspoonful lemon extract.
 Wash the figs, cut them in small pieces, then put them into a buttered casserole dish. Put the cornstarch into saucepan and rnoisten it with half a cupful of the milk. Bring the rest of the milk to the boiling point, pour it over tie cornstarch and stir till it boils for ten minutes. Add the sugar, lemon extract and the eggs, well beaten.
 Pour over the figs and bake in a moderate oven for a half hour. Serve with cream or milk

TARIFF CANNOT BE SIDE
 TRACKED.


 In the course of his acceptance of his nomination for the vice presi- dency on the republican ticket Charles w. Fairbanks points out that the tariff is one of the important issues of the campaign. That this is a fact will not only be generally recognized but it is emphasized by the course which has been followed by the pres ent administration.
 Much stress was placed upon the Underwood Simmons bill by the democratic leaders. This tariff for revenue only was promised to relieve the industrial situation, bring about unprecedented prosperity and at the same time provide the revenue which was needed to run the government with the country getting the benefit of the changes by a marked lowering of the cost of living. How well this has worked out is fully understood For the period that the tariff had a. chance to operate before the Euro pean war stepped in to give this country 8 protective tariff which has been as effective as any which could have been established by legislation, it was clearly disclosed what ef- feet it was having upon industry. The pronounced slump and the lack of confidence were in such evidence that stagnation was threatened and it be- came necessary for the democrats to reverse themselves and not only elim- mate some of the dangerous provis- ions but to endorse changes which would help out the Urea sury.
 That there is still hostility to ade- quate protection is plainly evident and the issue of the tariff cannot be abandoned while such prevails.

THE WILSON ACCEPTANCE.

President Wilson by his address before a large gathering of democrats at Shadow Lawn has accepted his re- nomination. This of course was Q mere forma1ity since it was fully un- derstood long before the democratic convention that he was again willing and anxious to be the party nomi- nee. He now offers as his reason for so doing=tf record which has been established by congress during the past three and a half years and he paints a glowing picture of the &C., complishmentsi from his point of view.
 He has claimed the credit of a lot of legislation which was non parti- san in character. He has held up for endorsement a lot of laws which have been developing for many years, the principles of which were urged by previous administrations but towards which democratic opposition was al- ways in evidence, and he points to a number of measures as being benef1- cial to the nation when they have al- ready been found to be otherwise.
 The president makes reference to the mistakes which have been made, but there is little evidence that he has profited by them when he de- clares that he would repeat the poll icy which he has adopted towards Mexico. and that of course concerns only a part of the blunders. vaccila- ton and webbing that has been done both in regard to foreign policies and congressional action. All of these are of course smoothed over or neg iected but they are of too recent date to be forgotten. The memory of the public has no difficulty in bringing them to mind.

FOR NERVOUS WOMEN.

One of the latest things for the ner- vous woman who Is trying to reduce her fractious nerves, is the bran bath just before retiring at night. This not only has a soothing effect but in- cidentally softens and whitens the skin. To make the bath buy ordinary bran at a feed store ana keep 1t in a tin box away from mice, Make a bag of cheesecloth from twelve to eighteen inches square and stuff it with bran until about as full as a. pine pillow. This bag is put in bathtub half filled til the water Is brown and bubbly It is not we'll to remain in the water longer than five or six minutes and, if possible, the bather should rest ten minutes and then be rnassaged If there is no one to do the massaging, one can rub the body thoroughly with a rough towel and knead it with the hands,

TORTOISE SHELL.

Now that tortoise shell has once more come into public favor it is well to know way in which to clean and polish it When tortoise shell loses it's luster from wear the polished sur face may be restored to it's original condition by carefully rubbing it with powdered rottenstone, and oil The rottenstone should be very carefully sifted through the finest muslin. When all scratches on the surface of the tortoise shell are thus removed, brilliant polish may be given it by applying gentle friction with a piece of soft leather to which some jeweler's S rouge has been applied.

THE COUNTY FAIR,

For the education, entertainment and broadening of the people of New London county there has been ar ranged for this week with unusual thought and consideration the annual county fair. It is a gathering of the people of southeastern Connecticut which calls for the support not only of Norwich and vicinity but of every one of the 21 towns in this subdivis- ion of the state. G
 The county fair has been lifted out of the rut in which it was running by the present officials of the New Lon don County Agricultural society. Eff forts have been directed towards making it the best that can be ob- tained and such ambitions have ac- complished much in the desired di- rection.- There has been steady inn provenent for the past several years and there is every reason to believe that it will be as much better this year as the support which has been given it will warrant.
 This means that the present ad- ministration of the county fair is steadily pushing towards the goal which will make it one of the best fairs in the state. But it does not rest alone with the fair management. There must be an equal display of interest upon the part of the county people. With the officials earnestly endeavoripg to make this big fall gathering the feature attraction of the season there is much which de- bends upon the cooperative action of the people and this applies to every line of business for it is not alone the farmer but every artisan who should do his part and lend his en- couragement. Now is the time for every one who stands for a bigger and better fair to make it evident.
