Perhaps the most interesting fea-
ture Of the entire design is the sun
parlor leading from the kitchen and
front parlor. This room, with its
seven windows, will no doubt be the
most used room In the house in alb
kinds Of weather. BY replacing the
sash with screens during the summer
months room is provided which will
furnish all the advantages Of being out
Of doors, without the annoyance of in
sects. Since there is an entrance to
the kitchen, this room provides q very
pleasant breakfast porch, a feature
which will be appreciated by all who
have had the opportunity to take their
morning meal in the open air.
The second floor contains three large
bedrooms, sewing room and bath
room. The hall makes all of these
rooms independent Of one another, and
the cased opening off OF 1t into the
sewing room specializes this little room
as the most attractive on this floor. A
feature of special convenience is the
large CLOSET space allowed to each of
the bedrooms. ~.
Considered in its entirety this house
design is one which offers a great
many features not ordinarily found in
corporated in ono house, and to the
family needing house of this size, es-
pecially If they have located in one of
our smaller cities, 1t suggests the pos
sibility Of home Of rare attraction.
An item of considerable Importance
in the selection of house is the pos
sibility of Its fitting into the general
scheme Of the surrounding landscape.
1t is possible materially to spoil the
appearance of IN otherwise beautiful
home by an improper selection Of its
surroundings. The house described
here should be placed, preferably, On
a rather wide lot with moderate ter
race in front. It will look well If set
Off against background Of trees and
shrubs carefully placed at the rear
and sides Of the premises. The front
porch will be set off to advantage by a
bed of flowers set along the front and
side. Thus surrounded by trees, shrubs,
flowers and well-kept grass this home
should be very attractive.

"Catch the fly" is the slogan Of st.
Louis. The pesky things that carry
millions of germs at the end Of their
fine fuzzylike toes, or whatever you
call 'em, are banned by the st. Louis
authorities, and a price has been
placed on the heads of the flies just
as a price is placed on the heads of
stray dogs.
While practically every city, town
and hamlet boasts Of its dog pound,
st. Louis has taken the initiative and
established fly pound. The fly traps
that are located in various parts OF
the city proved the center of attrac-
ton to the Democratic delegates who
were in the Mound City to attend the
national Democratic convention. and
1t is dollars to doughnuts, that when
they get back home they are going to
follow the example set by St. Louis
and set fly traps In their own home
towns. The trap is huge imitation
Of the ordinary fly traps one often
sees In butcher shops. At the bottom
there is conical opening, and Under
this opening one places piece of suet
or a piece Of meat. The flies swarm
by the thousands around the bait and
fly up through the opening in the
cone, into the trap from which there
Is no escape. The st. Louis traps are
three.story affairs with plenty Of
light and air for the flies that like the
free apartments into which they are
invited. ~ ~

1t must be remembered that Mexico
lbs had almost uninterrupted war of
dae kind or another for period long
er than the American Civil war.
While conscientious American army
officers have been puzzling over maps
and working out problems in military
strategy and tactics, the Mexican gen.
erals have been actually leading large
forces In the field and giving and re-
ceiving blows in the same territory
where they now clash with Uncle
Sans Napoleons. This is IN enor-
nous advantage.
In addition, the Mexican military
academy at Chapultepec, near Mexico
City, which Is similar to our West
Point, has a high rating among insti-
tutions Of this character. In the Next
can war of 1846-47 the Chapultepec
cadets put up desperate resistance
to the American invaders on the
grounds Of their school. They were
only overcome after nearly all had
been killed or wounded.
So, while the Mexican forces are
badly equipped and lack ammunition
and food supplies. they will in many
cases be as we'll led as the Americans.

the latter broke with Carranza. He
contributed largely to many Of Villas
victories. Some critics say most Of
Villas glory should 60 to Angeles
that he was the man behind the scenes
and supplied the brains, while villa
inspired the enthusiasm.
He was Villas minister of war when
villa had an organized government
and was proposed several times as
provisional president Of Mexico. In
this position he could have counted on
the confidence and support of the
United States. But villa feared An
Eeles' strength and kept him In sub
ordinate position.
Then Angeles Quarreled with villa
over the bloodthirsty and unprincipled
methods of the northern bandit gener-
al and left him. He did not 60 over
to the constitutionalists, however, but
sought refuge in the United States.
On March % last he expressed the
opinion at Ell Paso that there would be

troops remained for that period on
Mexican soil.

Making Calcium Bread.

The Importance of calcium In the
human dietary is discussed in a recent
article by o. Loew, who urges the de-
STABILITY of supplying this element,
when needed, as an Ingredient in
bread. The author states that only
those adults who use milk and vege-
tables in abundance secure sufficient
amount Of calcium, while those who
eat much meat and get their carbohy-
drates In the form of bread, potatoes
and beer do not.
( The amount Of calcium in the diet
appears to be related to certain path
illogical conditions, such as arterio-
sclerosis. II IL proposed to use in
bread making calcium Chord and a
commercial preparation called ''calci-
FARM" made from rye flour and cal.
cium Chord. The author thinks It
more practical to add calcium to nne
dour than to attempt to persuade the
public to adopt wholegra bread. NJ

LUSTANIA CASE
ABOUT SETTLED
Belief Germany Has Nat U. S.
Demands.
STILL SEEK PERSIA FACTS
Washington StiII Lacks Evidence to
Prove Persia Was Attacked by
submarine-Expect Settlement Of
F~ye Case In Near Future.

Washington, Jan. 10-In high adj
ministration circles the belief is en-
pressed that a complete settlement of
the Lusitania case would be reported
Immediately This settlement Is ex-
pected to embrace an acceptance of I
disavowal of the disaster and a pay
ment of a money indemnity to the
United States for losses sustained by
the sinking of the boat.
Although still at odds on the form
of disavowal, state department Off
Gals indicate that this will be set
tied satisfactorily within few days.
The state department is still lack
ing evidence necessary to prove that
the British liner Persia was attacked
by submarine and is now awaiting
the outcome of the inquiries which
the German and Austrian govern.
ments are taking of their submarine
commanders in the Mediterranean.
Unless these Investigations show that
a German or Austrian submarine Is
responsible, the American govern
ment, it is admitted in administration
circles, will be compelled to give up
any further attempt in this case. On
the other hand, 1t is predicted, II
either Germany or Austria accept re-
sponsibility for the attack the United
States will promptly demand salts
faction. This demand will go beyond
a disavowal, punishment of the COM
mander and reparation. The note
will take the form of a demand for
a new and broader expression from
all the central powers, including Tur-
key, and Bulgaria as to their willing
ness to respect international law.
Only the merest technicalities, Off.
Gals believe, stand in the way Of the
final adjustment of the William p
Frye case. Germany's latest note on
this dispute is regarded at the state
department as thoroughly satisfac-
tory.
With the submarine controversy
we'll on the way to an amicable adj.
justment, as American officials see it,
the state department may now pro-
coed to take up aggressively The con-
tentions, which the United States
holds against Great Britain in regard
to unwarranted interference with
American trade.
Great Britain already has before
her the American note of Oct. 81,
1915, protesting against the British
orders in council and the protest just
sent against interference with Amer
lean mails to and from Germany.
That the United States means to
follow its protests to the allies vigor-
ously was indicated in the concluding
paragraph of the note of Oct. 81,
which follows
This championing the integrity Of
neutral rights, which have received
the sanction of the civilized worl'i
against the lawless conduct of bellig-
erents, arising out of the bitterness
of the great conflict which is now
wasting the countries of Europe, the
United States unhesitatingly assumes
and to the accomplishment of that
will devote it's energies

DARDANELLEs
Only One Soldier Wounded In
Evacuation.
GERMANS RE-TAKE TRENCHES
Bulgarians and Teutons Reported to
Be Fastening Plans For an Attack

/
! London, Jan. 10.-The campaign at
the Dardanelles has been abandoned
| The positions at the tip of the CALI
| poll peninsula, which we're retained
when the British troops left Seddui
Bahr and Amaze Cove on Dec. 10,
have now been evacuated. Not a
British or French soldier now re-
mains on the peninsula where more
than 100000 men were killed or
wounded since April last in futile at
tempts to force the Turkish lines.
The evacuation of the last allied
position was effected, according to
the official announcement, with the
loss of one British soldier wounded
the French suffering no casualties.
This appears to have been an even
more successful exploit than the with
drawal of the Seddul Bahr and Anzac
Cove troops, where the losses in
CURED were insignificant" On the
early occasion the statement said the
operations were carried out without
the Turks being aware of the move
ment, although the allied troops had
been in the closest contact with the
enemy.
In contrast with the statement of
only one man wounded, a statement
issued by the Turkish war office and
received here, tells of heavy artillery
fighting all along the line across the
peninsula. The Turkish statement
says the Turkish batteries on the
Asiatc coast shelled the landing
places at Seddul-Bahr and Teke-
Burnu and also shelled allied troops
in the Kere Vezzere valley leading to
the strait from the Krithia heights.
1t would seem probable that the
troops shelled in this valley may have
been on their way from the positions
south of the heights to the shore for
purpose of embarking.
The Turkish statement makes no
mention of the withdrawal of the al
lies from the peninsula. The date of
the withdrawal is not given in the Of
fetal announcement issued here.
Quiet reigned on other war fronts
with the exception of the area around
Hartmanns Wellerkopf, where, ac-
cording to Berlin reports, the Ger
mans have completed their recon-
quest of the trenches which fell into
the hands of the French on Dec. 81.
The Germans announce that 1853
chasseurs and fifteen machine guns
were captured.
Greek correspondents continue to
assert that the Bulgarians and Ger
mans are Fastening plans for an at
tack on Salonica. But the Austrians
are fighting hard against the Russians
and Montenegrians and the Bulgars
are largely occupied in resolute at
tempt to reach the Adriatic, from
which they are only forty miles dis
tant, at Ell Bassan, Albania.
