Look back at your childhood days.

How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children IT'S different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of

THE ELECTRIC SHOP
A FEW HINTS.

OF the many Notwithstanding de-
vices, three are especially popular
among housewives-the electric iron,
the toaster and the coffee perco1ator.
By far the most popular of these
three is the electric fiat iron.
The electric fiat iron has come to
be a necessity in the home. OF all
the electric devices, it is. undoubtedly
the most convenient Connected to an
ordinary socket, becoming hot within
a few minutes after the current is
turned, clean and cool, necessitating
no change Of irons, 1t is one of the
greatest aids to wash day.
The electric toaster will make toast
on the >dining-room table With the
turn of a switch, the coils of wire
become red hot in an instant. The
slices of bread are then placed on each
side of these red-hot wires and in a
''jiffy" the toast is ready to serve,
piping hot. The coasters are very in
expensive, both as to price and the
cost of operation.
Similar to the toaster, the coffee
percolator may be used on the din
ing-room table. Within thirty-fiVe
seconds after the current is turned on
the percolation process commences
The coffee is always hot and ready to
serve.
The popular opinion is that many
of these electrical devices will not
give satisfaction-that they will soon
burn out. This is mistaken idea.
To show their confidence in electrical
heating devices many of the manufac-
turers are guaranteeing their pro-
ducts, and are willing to replace. any
of the articles which do not give
complete satisfaction.
We will gladly show you any Of
these devices and many others con
nected up ready for use. Our show
room will make an interesting place
for you to visit.

JAPAN PRESENTS
SEVEN DEMANDS
TO CHINA AGAIN
Program Offered Last Spring
is Again Taken Up, Lon
don Reports.

London, Jan. ,26-The Japanese
government has delivered to the Chi
nese minister in Toxic for transmits
sion to his government, a note en-
bodying seven demands which were
last Spring, the Manchester Guardian
learns for Far Eastern sources.
g. The Guardian expresses the hope
that this news will be ''authoritave1y
contradicted'' as the demands when
previously presented were full of dan
ger to China's Independence and their
general effect would have been to
place China under tutelage of Japan
'tIt is the aim and hope Of British
policy the newspaper continues, ''to
see China strong and independent de-
ve1oping peacefully without interior
ence from foreign power.
.'It is a. duty we owe both TO our
selves and to China says the Guard
ian, finally, tfto help her in that di-
rection and we have enormous ma
terial interests. too, which reinforce US
in the only policy"
On January Is, 1915, Japan presented
to- China a list of II demands arranged
in five groups Group five, known as
the general group was the one
which aroused most vigorous protest
from the Chinese government and 1t is
possible that it is the five articles Of
this group that are alluded to by the
Manchester Guardian 1t contained
originally seven articles, the first re-
farding the employment by China OF
Japanese as advisors; the second, the
construction of Japanese hospitals,
churches and schools in China; third,
the employment of Japanese in the
police departments in the large CEN
ters; fourth, China to purchase a GER
tain proportion of munitions from
Japan; fifth, Japan's right to construct
certain railroads in China; sixth, con-
cessions to Japan in the province of
FAuken, and seventh, the right of
japanese subjects to propagate Budd-
hism in China
The United States government adj
dressed a note to Japan with regard
to the demands made upon China,
in particular with respect to
three points-the selection Of foreign
advisers by China, the purchase of
war munitions and the question OF
foreign loans
The japanese government replied to
the note on March q On May % two
treaties between Japan and China, to-
gether with thirteen notes, were
signed in the Chinese foreign Office
covering, 1t was announced, the prac-
teal con illusions reached on the Jap
anese demands, of which, however
Eve articles were left for Interior ar
1t was understood at the
time that the articles for considera-
ton were those of group 5,sfrom which
article had been eliminated and ar
would undertake no military or=naval
preparations nor authorize foreigners
to undertake such Preparations on the
Fukien coast ia the future.
