Among the neIghbors Anton dis

dire things would happen If he failed

At 10 o'clock sharp Anton walked
into the office Of Commissioner Lewis
Mason in the federal building. He
appeared nervous.
Anton walked over to Mason's desk

CRIMINALS
A VERAGE SO a YEAR
Convict Complies Statistics
Showing FutiIity Of Steal
ing for a Living.

TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. 1.-THE
thieves of Kansas have decided that a
life Of crime in the S%untlower state
will never pay much. By actual sta
tistics they have learned that it IS
practically impossible for a burglar,
cmbcmlcr. a robbcr highway or
bankJ, Il sneak thief, or a pickpockct
on land or sea to make decent living
out OF the Kansas common wealth. SIX
dollars a year is shown to be the
height Of soft pickings in this terri
bic climate.
John Durand. a prisoner in the Kan
sas pcnitentiary, has estimated the
entire matter in black and white and
has seven years left to experiment
with the sliding scale. After talking
with all Of the five hundred prisoners
capped for careless conduct with other
peoples money, Durand retired to a
small room equipped with bars to pre-
vent interruption and developed the
fact that the big six before mentioned
is what the hard working criminal

dinarily awaits him. Counting good

crage income is then IS a year.

bill, but he based his ruling on his
yie.y that the District Of Columbia was
not a municipality and merely the
agent of Congress to govern the seat
Of government.
Senator Sheppard, OF Texas, offered
as a fecler a very carefully drawn
proposal to forbid primarily a local
brewery TO use a picture Of the United
States flag for advertising purposes.
The vice president ruled that the
amendment was not in order. Senator
Sheppard appealed from the decision.
The senate sustained the vice presi-
dent by a vote Of 50 to Z.
Those who voted against the ruling
were Senators Cummins, Curtis. Jones,
Kenyon and Sheppard.
The vice president made It clear he
would rule against an amendment for
prohibition and the Senate having sus-
tanned him. Senator Sheppard and
Senator Jones, who intended to offer
prohibition amendments, have decided
not to make a fight for them. They
may, however, try to get a roll call
vote and place senators on record.

Effort 10 Install Prohibition in
District Of Columbia
Falls Down..

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE effort
to get through the Senate an amend
ment to the District of Columbia APP
preparation bill prohibiting the sale
Of intoxicating liquors in the district
failed. The Senate also refused to
abolish the present relationship be-
tween the United States and the fed
eral district.
Encouragement was found by the
advocates of prohibition in a decision
by Vice President Marshall last week
on an amendment offered by Senator
Work of California. that the District
Of Columbia he abolished as a local
government and turned over bodily to
the United States. The vice president
held that this proposed amendment
was not general legislation and could

Presents Menus That Can Be
Prepared in Less Than
FOrty-Five Minutes.
BY MRS. ANNA B. SCOTT.
Culinary Expert OF the philadelphia

.NNA !"
On these hot days no woman should
spend any more time in the kitchen
than is absolutely necessary, and no
man should expect his wife to waste
her time and energy preparing heavy
meals that will in the end do him
more harm than good. During the eN-
cessively warm summer weeks the
system does not require a great deal
Of food.
For several years ! have each sum
mer written on this subject, on which
! feel so deeply. Whether it is the
house mother or the maid, the woman
in the kitchen feels the heat more
than the man who is in the office. And
the man, on his part, should take
more care in what he eats when the
Thermometer hOvers around the nine
ties.
| want to present to the attention
OF my readers today some menus for
meals which can be prepared quickly
and at small cost. I want to show you
how appctizing dinners ample enough
for this hot weather a be prepared
for four people, two adults and two
children. at an average cost Of fifty
cents. More than that, any young
woman with a fair experience in
household duties can do it in less than
three-quarters Of an hour.
Dinner No. 2 I prepared for my
household yesterday. A spring bas-
ket contained all the Materials s.
cent eggplant, quarter-peck of pota-
toes, six cents; quart of string beans,
five cents; four tomatoes, five cents;
small carrier peaches, ten cents; to-
tai, thirty-one cents.
How 1t is Prepared.
Let me tell you how to begin to
nreparc the dinner. First ] find the
coolest place l can, then string and
cut the beans and put in cold water.
Wash, pare and dice the potatoes; put
IN cold water. Skin and quarter the
tomatoes and put them in r%efrigera-
tor. Last, peel, slice and season tho
eggplant. Now everything is ready.
Have the teakettle on TO get boiling
water. Put stringbeans in saucepan.
the potatoes in another saucepan and
cover with boiling water; boil the po-
tatoes. twenty minutes; drain, add
milk, butter. seasoning and cook SLOW
ly ten minutes.
AS soon as the potatoes are returned
TO stove, drain and season the string
beans; return and simmer until ready
TO serve. AS soon as beans are re-
turned to stove, put on large frying
nan with n little bacon drippings; dip
The egg plant in a little flour and fry
quickly on both sides until brown.
| Cover with lid or large pie tin and re-
duce the heat. Let stand until pota-
toes and beans are dished.
10 The tomatoes and butter are
brought hut peaches are left in ice
until ready to dish. With bread and
butter, iced grape juice, which is very
nourishing, | have a very good nutrI-
tlous h~nt-weather meal for less than
