How to Make and Preserve Cider.

There is an article in the November
Farm and Fireside in which a writer
says!
"1n addition to the jams, iellies, etc,
that are made up of oyerripe apples, a
superior grade of cider can be made and
put up and kept sweet for an indefinite
period. OF course, the unfermented apple
Juice is that in which no changes caused
by the yeast plant have taken place. On
all fruits the yeast plant is found very
generally distributed and belongs to the
same low order of plants as the yeast
used in bread making. 1t grows quickly
in fruit juices, changing the juice into
alcohol. In other words fermentation
begins. One of the most important fea-
lures then in making sweet cider is to
kill these organisms so as to prevent fer
mentation.
"This can be done in two ways: first,
by the use of chemicals; and. second by
the application of sufficient heat to de-
stroy the organisms. The tirst-named
method cannot be recommended. for then
the LIQUID is adulterated, is inferior in
quality and unfit for human consump-
ton. The latter named method is the
one to follow"

The Marina Outrage.

@Cold- blooded murder" is the term
with which survivors of the Americans
on board the Marina characterize the
double torpedoing OF that steamship
without warning They are right if the
uncontradicted story that they tell is
correct. Why the vessel should have
been attacked at all is a mystery. She
was British, but she was hot carrying
contraband 1t is true that she had TAX
EN- horses from Newport News to Avon
mouth, but on her way back she had no
cargo, nothing except ballast, yet when
one day out she was sent to the bottom
off the Irish coast by submarine. When
the first torpedo exploded the submarine
was not visible. Four boats with l04 or
the ships company were quickly
launched, and the remaining l9 men were
in the act of launching the lifeboat when
the submarine rose and killed them all
by breaking the ship in two with a sec
ond torpedo. Can anybody feel like pro-
testing against that descriptive term,
cold blooded murder'2
1t was presumably German subma-
rine commander that committed the
crime. We really cannot believe that, il
his guilt be proved, the German govern
ment will attempt to Justify his conduct
The promises made to our government
not to sink merchant ships without warn
ing are so explicit that to break them
would be to make the word of Germany
forever worthless in her relations with
the United States. And that she does
not desire. But the delay in dealing with
the affair is not conducive to the best OF
feeling. The Marina was sunk as long
ago as Oct %, yet the German foreign
office is still asking for further details
as to the place and circumstances. For
ty-five American horsemen who were on
board have returned to this country, and
have given their testimony as to the
sinking without warning and the killing
of the Q men Of whom seven were Amer
leans. If that testimony had been laid
before the German government, nothing
further should be necessary for convic-
ton, regret, apology and reparation.-

tuberculosis Days.

No doubt the day" business is being
overdone, but education IN the proven
ton and cure is good business for any
day and every days.
Dec. and Dec, 10 have been set apart
bv the National Association for the Pre-
yention of tuberculosis for the work OF
education against the great white
plague" which, in spite OF the great ad-
vance in treatment and education in pre-
vention and cure, yet kills 100000 peo-
pie every year in this country.
tuberculosis in its commonest form IS
consumption of the lungs through the
ravsges of vegetable parasite, planted
in the system by rod-shaped germ, mil
lions of which may appear in the sputum
of one consumptive.
1t is not inherited, but the predispos-
ing causes may be, and the environment
may continue through several genera
tions. tuberculosis is an infection, the
germ of which may be breathed in the
form OF dust or swallowing in connection
with food.
Persistent cough, with loss OF weight
and appetite pain in the chest, n-down,
tired feelings, afternoon temperature,
night sweats and the appearance OF blood
in the sputum, or mucus raised from
the lungs, are the danger signals OF tu-
berculosis.
See a doctor. Home cures are sue
cessful only when expertly directed, and
the early advice of physician may save
MANY lives. The sanatorium treatment
is best and safest in the early stages
of the disease, because there the pa
tient Is under constant discipline and SUI
peryision. :,
Patent medicines and cures are all
marked dangerous. Fresh air at all
times, proper food and plenty OF it, rest
and care are necessary. and home cures
fail because the patient wearles OF the
rigid regimen necessary to recovery
Prevention is the proper work OF the
citizen BY requiring the patient to de-
strov the infected sputum.
Advocating fresh air, outdoor life, sun
shine. rest, no overwork, wholesome food
and temperate habits.
Watching for signs of disease and pro-
curing treatment and preventing the IN
lection Of others.
Education in the nature and danger
of the disease.
Regular examination by doctor, year
ly, at least.
The insidious nature of the disease is
what has inspired the national move
ment for prevention and cure, move
ment that every citizen should eneour-
age and take part in.-Rutland Herald

An Imaginative American.

The death of Jack London removes pre-.
maturely real and significant figure
from American literature. London was
a true product of our national life; he
had imagination. a vigorous and direct
STYLE and a keen realization of the need
Of describing and expressing life as 1t is.
AS we are always demanding the charac-
teristic American thing, and as Jack
London lived and felt the life, we should
have been, and were, glad of so earnest,
though often so undiscriminating an ex-
ponent of it as he, He fell short Of
greatness in aethorship through his evil
dent inability or the unwillingness to
discriminate between the children of his
fancy. Along with some really powerful
stories and sketches, he wrote a great
deal of nonsense. Either all things that
he wrote were to him good, or else he
yielded weakly to the demand for salabie
stories. He was far too prolific for even
ness of merit, for integrity or express
sion.
Time will exercise the choice amongst
his works which he failed to exercise
himself. Ii would be strange if it did
not mark some of his ruder sketches OF
the forest and the mining trail, such as
"The Call of the Wild" and 'White
Fang" for fame 1t would also be
strange if the great merit of his autobio-
graphical and semiautobiographical
writings, such as Martin Eden and
John Barleycorn," were not also fully
recognized. In these and other pieces
OF the kind, Jack London has thrown a
strong light into the deepest corners of
the American psychology. His writings
as a Socialist propaganda, such as The
Iron Heel" were not successful either
as propaganda or a. literature, and his
fights in Iue azure of the cosmic inn
agination. Of the type Of Before Adam,
were shown to be a considerable extent
a stringing together Of borrowed fancies.
But in spite OF his defects, London has
LETT behind him an extraordinary and
a notable literary output-Boston Tran
script.

CANADIANS PLAYED TRICK.
Used By American Indians and Trappers
Against Germans.

With the British on the front in
France, Friday. Dec. /, via London, Dec.
5.--That success in modern warfare often
may depend upon the employment OF
some article or contriyance OF ancient
design and cunning has again been dem
onstrated by the Canadian troops IN their
most recent advances against the enemy.
The old American Indian and trapper
trick of carrying great weights upon the
back by means of a leather thong across
the forehead helped the Canadians to get
ahead when other means OF transport
was difficult and through supplies thus
brought up they completely captured the
famous Regina trench which hitherto
had resisted all efforts.
Not only did this particular contingent
of Canadians take Regina trench, but
they pressed forward under the fiery
shelter of curtain of shells, until they
established themselves in Desire trench,
which constituted an objective of SUI
preme desirability.
When the Canadians were given the
word to advance it was quickly seen that
the wintry mud would soon play havoc
with the usual methods OF bringing up
supplies and without uninterrupted sup
ply support no attack could succeed.
So, old troopers from western Canada
suggested scheme to the commanding
officer, who Immediately called for voun-
teers for the "tump line"
Hundreds of Canadians knew the trick
and within few moments three "tump'
companies were organized TO bring up
ammunition. Through mud, darkness
and hostile shellfre this Indian file of
men maintained an endless chain of sup
plies until the faithful army mule could
again get to work

CITY SUED FOR RIOT.
Claims for $l75,ooo Filed Against Seattle

Seattle WASH Dec 6.--Claims total
ling $4,000 were filed Monday against
the city of Seattle by residents of Ever
EFT as the result of the invasion of Ever
EFT by Industrial Workers of the World
on a steamboat Nov. 5, when two citizens
of Everett and five Industrial Workers
were killed in revolver battle at the
city wharf The claimants are the fam
lies of the dead members of the citizens
posse and citizens wounded in the gun
fire. The claims are based on the allega
ton that the Seattle authorities are to
blame for having permitted the Indus
trial Workers to leave here with the
avowed intention OF violating the city
ordinances of Everett which forbid street
speaking.

SHOES $40 A FAIR SOON.
Congressional Inquiry and Embargo Sug-
gested.

Lynn, Mass, Dec. 6.--Only the end of
the war or an embargo on leather can
keep the price OF shoes from soaring un-
til the figure reaches $40 a pair for shoes
now retailing at half that cost. This is
the prediction of shoe manufacturers and
retailers now in conference here.
They intend to demand COMPRESSION
al inquiry into the shortage of leather
and its high cost. In a week leather has
advanced Is cents foot. The hardship
has become so intense, they say, that
factories may have to be put on half
time if relief is not forthcoming.
A statement by the conference points
out that mems shoes that sold at So to SIS
and women's that were sold at So to so
pair now have been almost doubled in
price.

How Custom Changes Creed

Certain changes In the discipline OF the
Methodist Episcopal church are recommended
by committee, mainly because the penalty
prescribed for certain enumerated offenses has
become a dead letter Az the time the church
was organized the rules and regulations for
the guidance Of It's members we're formulated,
specified actions were locked upon as yenal II
not mortal sins and we're inhibited under pain
Of expulsion Slowly but surely the disposition
Of the membership OF the church has risen 10
a point where these stringent rules are no
longer applicable. This Ia not to be taken as
proof that the foundations OF the church are
being undermined. nor that the moral fiber OF
It's membership Is deterloratng II anything,
il shows better conception Of the whole
duty OF man. and that reyorentlal worship OF
God does not require absolute and rigid Austen
ton from all forms Of pleasure on earth.
Macauley describes the change in manners
that came TO the English people with the
Restoration as a reyulson against the enforced
ascerticism under the rule OF Cromwell. This
brought with II such extent OF license that
today we marvel that such state OF pubic
mind could have existed. Good sense ulti-
mately prevailed, and England was purged OF
the RIGHTEOUSNESS that disguised even It's de-
yotees, and public and private morals were es-
tabIished on a reasonable basis. The Purtans
persisted in clinglng TO their stern code, and
brought 1t intact TO this country where as has
wittily been said OF them. they sought liberty
to worship God in their own fashion and make
everybody else do the same" The point is that
custom changes creed. and time changes Gus
tom,
The great sectarian divisions Of the com
mon church are slowly working to eliminate
some OF the homeopathic OF their several
creeds. holding fast to the essentials, and with
out surrendering any part Of their high claims
and definite purpose. are bringing their dogma
more and more into line with rational deyel-
opment resulting from increased experience and
steadily advancing wisdom.

industry, social life, all were affected and in
some degree turned into their present course
by transaction at verdun eleven hundred and
two years ago. II was there the grandsons OF
Charlemagne met, in the year s14, after some
three years OF bootless battle, and divided the
empire built up by their grandfather That
portion which 10 known as Italy fell to Lothaire,
Charles took what 10 now France and Spain,
and Louis the Cermanic had for his portion the
German empire. II is interesting In this con-
nection. also to note that then Louis was en-
gagged In combat against Charles and Lothaire
for control OF the empire. and the outcome was
the division.
II was at Verdun that charlemagne's
dream Of restoring the Roman empire came
definitely to an end. Many and various reasons
are given by historians and political philoso-
piers for the event and the results that fol-
lowed Guizot mentions them all, but declines
