MONTENEGRO AND ITALY.

There have been conflicting reports
as to what Montenegro is going to do
now that tho Austrians have captured
Mount Lovcen which was relied upon
for the defense OF Cettinie From one
side it is declared that they intend
to arrange separate peace with Aus
tria already having declared truce,
while from the other comes denial
Of any such thing. Under the cir
curnstances fighting as they are
against such overwhelming odds and
without any relief being sent to them
1t would not be surprising IL they had
thrown up their hands except that
such is not characteristic of those
people. They are not accustomed to
defeat or given to showing the white
feather because of a severe reverse,
and for that reason the declaration
that is made that they will continue
to fight until the last man falls has
the real Montenegrin ring.
What Italy is going to do under the
circumstances holds the attention Of
all the belligefents as well as those
on the side lines. It has disclosed
dilatory tactics by not having pre-
vipusly sent such assistance to these
people that it would have prevented
the much opposed extension of Aus
trian control along the Adriatic. The
blow which has fallen upon the Mon
tenegrins while serious is likewise OF
grave importance to Italy and it finds
itself in the position of being required
to hustle at the eleventh hour to over
come a much more serious menace
than has previously existed. At the
same time it viii be required to use
greater efforts than were called for
bad their response been made some
months ago. Italy today has undoubt-
edly awakened to the danger Of pro-
crastination.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A Word to Interested.

Mr.. Editor: Perhaps Interested
might write more intelligently con-
corning heredity should he read few
books upon the subject, since they
nearly. all agree disease cannot be in
herfted
In Bavaria in 1871 there were off,
cial1y reported 30,742 cases of small
pox. DR.. H. Oidtn1ann in an address
to. the Reichstag said: "Our German
city records show thousands of cases
of attack or death from smallpox even
in newly vaccinated cases"
A president of the New York board
of health said: There are no valid
grounds for claiming vaccination
makes anyone immune from smallpox;
neither does having the disease, since
patients haze been known to have
the disease more than once and finally
to die of it."
Observer stands for medical free
dom. He believes everybody should
be vaccinated who wants to be, and
that American citizens should have
the privilege Of selecting their own
doctors from any school they see fit.
He has been several times vaccinat ed
and as a result of this has a disease
the doctors cannot cure.

rHE E.2 EXPLOSION.

In ali probability the fact that the
submarine E-2 was in drydock when
the explosion occurred which caused
four deaths and injuries to ten others,
instead Of being ON the high seas was
the only thing which prevented an
other mystery like that which for
months surrounded the F-4, for had
the same thing occurred while the
plunger was being tested underwater
IL Is probable that 1t would be lying
somewhere on the bottom of the ocean
today with little or nothing known
about its disappearance.
There is however enough mystery
surrounding the explosion under the
existing circumstances. Whether it
was the result of carelessness or some
previously undiscovered defect in the
mechanism will have to be determined
by an exhaustive inquiry, for what
ever it was 1t cannot be disclosed any
too soon, If reasonable protection is
going to be given to the lives of those
In the submarine service.
This underwater boat had been fit
ted with the new batteries designed by
Thomas A. Edison. which were call
culated to overcome the danger Of
chlorine gas which resulted when the
acid Of the old batteries and salt wa
ter happened to come together. In
such tests as had been made with this
particular vessel before it was placed
in drydock satisfactory results are
said TO have been obtained from the
new batteries, but if they simply over
come one danger only to create an
other the situation would appear to
be little changed except as to the de-
gree of the respective dangers. While
It is deplorable that there was a loss
Of life 1t is to be hoped that thereby
the real cause of the sad affair has
not been made an eternal secret
whether it was carelessness or de-
fective mechanism.

TO CLEAN FELT HATS.

Hat cleaners ask a good price for
cleaning hat, but / have discovered
a way by which you can make your
last years felt hat look as good as
new for one cent. Buy at the hard
ware store a sheet Of the very finest
sandpaper.
Tack q small piece on a little block
of wood; with this begin sandpaper-
ing the hat always being careful to
rub in the direction of the map. Con-
tinue this process, using new piece
Of sandpaper when necessary, until
the hat begins to take on a new and
clean appearance.
When 1t becomes thoroughly clean,
dampen 1t slightly and press with a
moderately hot iron.

RIBBONS.

Ribbons are plain, dotted, striped.
brocaded, picotea. lowered. futurist,
dresden, tinseleds metallic, tissue; In
short, everything that loom can pos
sibly produce.
They trim hats, frocks, suits, lin
gerie, neclzwear. line coats and make
evening wraps tUuffant by forming
stiff ruffles at the bottom.
They make whole dresses. blousee.
trains on evening gowns, brassieres,
girdle bodfces on dance frocks, bou-
doir caps, hat crowns, scarfs, sports
coats and anything else you wish.
Choose a ribbon first season before
consulting the silk counter, remember
ing the revised axiom that ribbon
is the shortest distance between style
and ingenuity.

FOR TAPESTRY.

Chairs upholstered with tapestry
can be cleaned easily with hot bran.
Make the bran hot in the oven and
cover the chair thickly with It. Rub
with a piece of flannel, using fresh
bran when the first lot is dirty. A
good brushing at the end will COM
plete the process, and It can be ap-
piled to brocade as well as tapestry
A simpler way In which to clean ma
hogany tables Is by rubbing them
with a rag dipped in vinegar and
when dry rubbing them over with a
cloth dampened in paraffin, which will
give an excellent polish.

TO SOFTEN PEcANs.

Almost all housewives know how
very hard it is to crack pecan nuts.
Pour boiling water oyer the nuts and
allow them to stand tightly covered
for five or six hours. The nut meats
may then be extracted easily without
a trace of the bitter lining OF the nut.
Use nut crackers and crack lightly all
around the nuts. The work is quick
ly done and is not at all like the old
tedious process of picking out the
meats from the dry nuts. The meats
nearly always come out whole.

THE FITTED CUFF.

It is always some Of the small de-
tails Of fashion that make orr mar

This year the flt of the cuff has
much to do with the smartness of the
costume. The long, tight cuffs are
meant to fit really snugly about the
wrist. So If you buy a ready made
frock with q long cuff that does not

and neatly. Then fit 1t with buttons,
hooks and eyes or snap fasteners so
that the sleeve may be easily taken
on and off.
