Serving Spring Vegetables.

| One of the first fresh vegetables to APP
pear in the market is asparagus. Select
that which is not fully grown, separate
and wash it, cutting small piece from
each root end. Rinse the asparagus
well in cold water, tie in small bundles
and cook in an asparagus boiler--it can
be easily cooked this way without the
tops becoming mashed, as the boilers
have perforated sheets with handles, so
that it can be lifted out and drained;
place it in so that the tips will extend
above the water for about two inches;
the stalks win then be cooked by the
boiling water and the more tender tips
by the steam Cool and serve on crisp
lettuce leaves, with chopped celery, nuts
and olives, covered with a rial mayor
naise dressing.

ROOSEVELT RAPS
WILSON SHARPLY
Says He Has Done Nothing but Send One
Note After Another, When Nations
Honor Has Been at Stake.

! New York, Jan. 3l.-Tneodore Roose
welt discussed Promise and Performance
! in international Relations before tn,
Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences
in Brooklyn last night. The former pres.
ident's address in part was as follows;
in private life, no human being thinks
it to the credit of any man that he
makes a promise unless the promise is
kept But when we deal with nations,
instead Of individuals, large number of
reasonably well-disposed people loudly
take the view that the promise is itself
meritorious and that the keeping of it is
something wholly irrelevant A treaty
is merely a promise. If it is evident
when made, that it cannot be or ought
not to be kept, then those making the
treaty are sclf evidently either wicked
or foolish. If it can be kept but never
theless is not kept, those who fail to
keep it are guilty of dishonorable con-
duct. The politicians in power who do
such deeds are merely the agents of the
people, and if these public servants act
dishonorably, the dshonor is reflected
upon the people themselves Well-mean-
ing persons would be wise il thew kept
the analogy between public and private
promises steadily in view. The analogy
applies to pacificist speeches; il applies
to treaties; it applies TO what are diplo-
matically called notes.
Readers of David Copperfeld win re-
member that Mr.. Micawber's speciality
was to issue notes. He never honored
these notes when they became due. His
mind was so constituted that he felt that
when note became due he met il ade-
luately by writing another. His cred
TORS, however, did not take so char
table view of the performance. They
lid not have single-track minds. To
hose acquainted with the United States
diplomatic history during the last year

suing the analogy further"

Wilson'S Cleveland Address
a Solemn Warning to
the Nation
MAY HAVE TO CHOOSE
PEACE OR WAR
Time May Come Can't Keep
Country Out of War
and Maintain Honor

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 81. - President
Wilson, speaking, as he said, "solemnly,
warned the nation Saturday night in an
address here, that the time may com,
when he cannot both keep the United
States out of war and maintain its honor
He declared that the country must be
prepared to defend itself, and prepared
at once.
america is not afraid of anybody
he said. Il know | reflect your feeling
and the feeling of all our citizens when
say the only thing ! am afraid of is
not being ready to perform my duty. |
am afraid of the danger of shame; am
afraid of the danger of inadequaey; | am
afraid of the danger of not being able to
express Che correct character of the coun-
| try with tremendous might and effective
ness whenever we are called upon to act
in the field of the worlds affairs"
The president spoke with more gravity
and force than he has shown during any
of his previous addresses on prepared
ness. He was applauded frequently, and
when he spoke of defending the nations
honor the cheering was tremendous.
'Iet me tell ~cu very solemnly you
cannot postpone this thing he declared.
81 do not know what a single day may
bring forth. / do not wish to leave YOU
with the impression that | am thinking
of some particular danger. | merely wish
to tell you that we are daily treading
amidst intricate dangers. The dangers
that we are treading amongst are not of
our own making and not under our con-
troll. think no man in the United States
knows what a single week, single day,
a single hour may bring forth"
Again and again, the president spoke
of the nations honor. He declared the
real man believes his honor is dearer than
his life, and nations honor is dearer
than its peace and comfort. He said it |
had been difficult to keep the United |
States out of the war, and he felt he had
proved he was man of peace when
possible.
Regret that the question had come up
IN campaign year was expressed by
Mr. Wilson. "itt us forget" he said,
that this is year of national election"
The preparedness issue, he added. should
rave nothing to do with politics.
For the first time during his present
our, the president spoke of the navy
md of the coast defense. The latter, he
aid are good in quality, but not in
quantity.
Some people say that the navy ranks
econd, he declared. but the experts agree
t ranks fourth. He added it should be
increased. Among the possible sources of
anger mentioned by the president were {
he difficulties growisseslt Of the protec- i
ion of Americans abroad and the obliga- ,
ion of the United States to maintain {
