WINTER DIET.

Winter fare offers a wide range of choice in foods. There is the nour- ishing game, the savory goose and duck, and the delicate turkey-all within reach of people of moderate means. Pork, too, so rich and appe- tizing, is a prime dish and sucking pig is a viand fit for a king.
 Thick soups are very seasonable just now, and are much in favor with young and old alike. For those whose duties or pleasures keep them out of doors good deal of the time, a bowl of soup for luncheon is very sus- taining
 In addition to soups, cereals-such as oatmeal, hominy and cornstarch- make a valuable addition to break fast or supper fare, especially for people who have not much vitality. A bowl of hot porridge helps one to resist the cold. It is almost as prac- tlcal a defence against it as a suit of warm clothing.
 Vegetables are heat producing foods. Dried peas and beans are es- pecially valuable, which accounts for the fact that they are supplied to soldiers and sailors. Haricot beans can be made into a tasty dish either with butter or pork. Boston baked beans are deservedly popular, and prepared either in our great commer- cial kitchens or at home, they make a delicious addition to the bill of fare.-Marion Harris Mel, in The Peoples Home Journal for February.

MOTHER HATES FALSEHOODS.

''Now, Willy ,"said the mother, "you told me a falsehood. Do you know what happens to little boys who tell falsehoods ?"
 "No, ma'am," replied Willy, sheep ishly.

More PhiliDDines.

Washington, Feb. "A definite policy contemplating Philippine inde- pendence within four years was ap- proved today by the senate, Vice President Marshall casting the de- ciding vote in the amendment to the Philippine bill. The vote, which fol- lowed weeks of debate, was Al to 41. An effort to recommit the bill was defeated and final senate action on the measure was deferred until tomorrow.
 Administration senators, in sup porting the amendment, maintained that some such definite provision was necessary to square with the inde- pendent declaration in the Baltimore platform.
 President Wilson has made no public comment on the proposed amendment, but Senator Heating let it be known he was not opposed to it.
 By the terms of the amendment as perfected, provision is made for extension of time for granting inde- pendence if the president should deem it advisable.

GUARDSMEN WANT IN
 ON ARMY PLANS
Lower House Passed Heating
 Bill Relative to Shipment of Goods or Products of Child
 Labor in Interstate Commerce

Washington, Feb. 3.-Members of the national guard association con- tinued before the house military committee today their vigorous op- position to any army increase plan that would exclude the state troops as soldiers of the first line, when the naval committee heard expert testi- mony as to guns, torpedoes, mines and other ordnance material from Rear Admiral Strauss, chief of ord nance.
 Adjutatns General Sadler of New Jersey and Dickson of Illinois, and former Adiutant General Critchfeld testified that there virtually was no sentiment among the guardsmen in favor of the continental army plan. They contended that congress had full power to nationalize the militia so that defect could be cured.
 Admiral Strauss told the naval committee that the latest 14-inch guns of the navy having a range of 24,000 yards, as mounted, or four land miles were the equal of the 15-inch weapons of foreign navies, because of the greater muzzle velocity.
 He said that at target practice last year three 12-inch shells were driv- en through heavy armor plating at 12,0OO yards.
 Discussing submarine mines Ad- miral Strauss said the general board had recommended an increase of G. 900 over the number heretofore be- Ilieved necessary. Turning to new devices for the navy Admiral Strauss said a system for slavo fire of tor pedoes from destroyers was to be tried which would enable a destroyer to hurl a torpedo broadside at an enemy ship. The torpedo Is now be- ing manufactured for the Oklahoma could not be penetrated.
 Heating Bill Passed.
 Washington, Feb. 2-The Keat- ing bill prohibiting shipment in in terstate commerce of goods produced in mines, quarries and manufactories by children under 16 years of age, was passed by the house today 337 to 46. The bill now goes to the senae.
 It imposes heavy penalties for in- terstate shipments of any commodi- ty made in whole or in part by chil- dren under 16 years of age working in the mines or ouarries or by chil- dren under Il working in mills, can neries( workshops or manufacturing establishments where employed at night or more than eight hours of day. In the latter class of industries the minimum age is 16 instead of IA years.
 Opposition to the bill came largely from the south. Representative Webb of North Carolina, chairman of the house judiciary committee, urged that it was unconstitutional, and sought unsuccessfully to exempt the children of widows from it's op- eration.
 Former Speaker Cannon offered an amendment to exempt canneries because of competition with canner- ies across the Canadian line where there is no restriction on child la bor.
 The only material change made was the adoption of an amendment to exempt the boys and girls can- ming clubs.

to T. Roosevelt. For seven
years the strenuous colonel
was in the White House and
his party was in control or both
houses of congress.
In that period the colonel
had a splendid opportunity to
give US such a navy as we
needed and such an army as
we needed. Why didn't he dc
lit?
Does not the colonel make
himself ridiculous when he at
tacks the Wilson administra-
ton on the preparedness is
sue? Presidnt Wilson has been
in office but three years. He
has had but half the oppOrtu-
nifty that Roosevelt had to
build up our fighting forces.
But he is doing more than
Roosevelt did. Under the sane
tion of the president congress
is passing legislation that will
vastly increase the strength of
the regular army and the ma
tional guard. The naval pro-
81 am calls for more work than
has ever been done before in a
single year. 1t will restore us
to second rank among the
world powers, a position we
lost during the Roosevelt ad-
ministration.
If Roosevelt's own views on
preparedness are to be accept
ed as correct the colonel is in
the position of a man who fail
ed to meet his duty when he
was in office, yet is criticising
a man who is really making
good upon this subject.
Can such tactics as that win
anything?

MoDERNIZE THIS LAW

MT the coming school cleo
" ton no woman may vote
unless she has a property
qualification in her own name.
She may have children in
school, through marriage she
may have an equity in a very
large estate and she may be
mentally qualified in every
way for the ballot, yet she is
disfranchised. 1t is one of the
absurdities of the law. AS a
matter of good sense the law
should bestow upon the wife
of a taxpayer the same voting
privileges he enjoys. She is
his legal partner and has had
a part either in the making OF
his fortune or in conserving the
property. She is generally
better informed than her hus-
band as to school affairs. The
progressive women of Oregon
should take steps to see that
this feature of our school law
is brought up to date.

ANOTHER STRAW

~ OR those who believe that
the straw" ballot has in
~ it prophecies of the
things to come there should be
some little interest in the test
now being made by a Detroit
newspaper. A total of 1851
votes has been cast up to the
present, and President Wilson
is in the lead. The factory vote
gave him a very considerable
lead. The colonel is second.
Hughes is way behind.
All of which shows-if any
thing is shown by it-that
whoever the republican candi-
date may be, President Wilson
is going to beat him-Boston

CHILDREN IN COLOGNE

- ONE boys and girls were
80 recently arrested in Co.
logne for being on the
streets after nightfall. When
the case came before the Kor-
rektionsgericht (court of cor
rection) the parents advised
that the children were out with
permission from their homes.
The judge however refused
to accept that excuse; he said
that the children should have
been in their homes and each
parent was fined ten marks,
being also admonished to take
better care of their children.
In his lecture the Judge said :
Children are inclined nowadays no
more to be children, but assume the
prerogatives of grown folks as soon as
they can waddle, and before they are
competent to carry the responsibilities
of the adult Time was when life was
mystery to youth. Now a tot of IL
often can tell his elders what even
they have never learned This pre-
cocity is harmful, as the children are
not able to discriminate, and simply
have their curiosity whetted before
they are physically competent, which
fact will lead them into unnatura
sensationalism.
LAS for the shows, child must not
be forced to witness the intricacies oi
adult life before he IS mentally com
petent to judge the sIckly from the
healthy the weed from the whole
some plant; such things only excite
unhealthy imagery, without furtherins
mental growth
Is that judge right in his view
OF is he merely jealous of the
speedier methods of the new
generation? Had the young
sters done wrong or was it the
judge who was out of gear
with the world?
