Certainly it has not been my fault
II such is not the case.
Long before the Republican state

delegates from this State to support
Justice Hughes In the Chicago conven-

of Republicans In New York earnestly

II believe that the same situation cx-

programme will attempt during the
coming week to trim their sail. TO aver,
the disaster.
The slow progress made on the acri-
cultural appropriation bill. which was
under consideration for ten days and is
not yet passed. has led the majority
leaders to suspect that the Republicans
are contemplating a filihuster To de-
feat po~sibly the ship purchase bill and
one or two other measures which IN.
President has tagged as imperative, in
Guiding the Philippines bill.
For this reason Administration leaders
have decided to bring in these measures
AT once and have the fight over in the
hope that when they are out OF the WAY
the Republicans will have no further
object to attain by impeding progress.
If these tactics do not succeed gag
rules will he brought in to cut snort

President Is willing to abandon sorne

other alternative.

To those who complain about the
high cost Of living should consider
the fact that in 1921 the value of a
days work was $1.25 and what the
laboring man had to pay for some Of
the necessities Of life were, viz:
Coffee &c per h., flour So. per cwt.,
sugar 15c per h., kerosene 81. per
gal, beef 10c per lb., box of matches
Ice, spool silk thread Csc, flannel
62ac per yard To those who are
paying the high cost of the goods
they consume might be related this
fact: A certain consumer paid $3.50
for a barrel of apples and in the bar
rel found a note placed there by the
grower stating that he received $1.00
for the apples and wanted the pur-

EASY 10 MASTER
UNDERSTANDING OF HoMELN
~soUARE" REALLY Is SIMPLE.
Most Useful Tool Requires Little Study
Explanation Of its Value and
Properties Makes the Prin-
eiple Plain.

Perhaps there is no other tool among
the many used by the mechanic so use
full as the steel square, or carpenters
square. Although there are number
Of marks and figures on the steel
square there Is nothing complicated
or that requires any knowledge above
the ordinary to be able to use 1t in
many cases, and after few hours
careful study every mark should be
clearly understood.
The long arm of the square Is called
the body and the short arm Is called
the tongue. The junction between the
body and the tongue on the outside Is
called the heel. The body Of stand
ard steel square Is two inches wide
and "a inches long, the tongue is from
IA to Is inches long and one and one
half inches wide.
In this article the face of the square
will be that side toward the observer
when the body of the square Is held
in the left hand and the tongue in
the right. This Is true except with
the Nicholas square, which will be TAX
en- up later. The most important marks
on the steel square are its gradual
tiohs, which are divided into inches
and fractions of an inch. 1t is just
as necessary that the graduations be
perfect as for the body to be ut right
angles with the tongue. The inch may
be divided into eighths, sixteenths or
twelfths.
The first scale we will try to de-
scribe will be the octagon scale. This
scale is on the face of the tongue of
the square and Is shown by dots along
the middle, the marks being numbered
in tens, the first number being two
inches from the heel. The octagon
scale Is used as follows: Let 1t be re-
quired to make an octagonal or eight
sided post from q stick of timber II
inches by II inches. First divide the
end Of the stick into four equal parts
by lines parallel to the faces, now set
off from each side Of the center line on
each face as many spaces from the
octagon scale as the timber Is inches
square, In this case 1t would be II.
These points represent the angles Of
the octagon.
The brace scale, which is on the mid
die of the back of the tongue Of the
square, consists of two equal numbers
placed one over the other which repre-
sents the two legs of right angle tri-
angle the number at the right repre-
sents the hypotenuse Of this triangle.
Some squares have the two legs I'M
equal but the scale Is used the same
way. The use will be seen from the
following: Let 1t be required to put
brace between a post and beam
80 inches on the post and 80 inches on
the beam, by looking at the scale we
find the brace must be cut 55.18 inches
| long.

Adjusting Burdens Of Women.

An English overseer of recruiting
expresses the opinion that If flour bags
were only n little less cumbersome
many men would be obtained for the
British army who have now to be ex-
empted because they cannot be spared
from grocers' shops. While he adj
mits that successful attempts have
oeen made to Introduce woman assist
ants In grocers shops, they cannot be
expected to shoulder q sack of flour,
much less bag Of potatoes. 1t APP
pears that strong protests are being
made to the recruiting authorities by
the grocers against the compulsory en-
listment of their male assistants Of
military age. They plead that the
men are necessary, as the sacks Of
flour cannot be lifted by women.
Departure from established stand
ards are reputedly less frequent in the
United Kingdom than in the United
States, but 1t ought to be possible in
the present crisis, when every able
bodied man is needed in the British
army, to adjust burdens In grocers'
shops to the capacity of female backs
without seriously fracturing the un-
written constitution.

Professional Women In Russia.

From the middle of the last century
the women of Russia have asserted
their eagerness for professional train
ing. Teaching, surgery, medicine, and
government service have attracted the
greatest number. When the medical
schools were closed to them, they went
to Switzerland and other foreign c0un-
tries. A Russian girl took a Doctors
degree at Zurich In 1867. In the early
seventies the admission of women to
medical courses became settled prac-
tice in Russia. In 1875, woman sur
geons In numbers distinguished them
selves ut the front In the Serbian
Turkish war; the same distinguished
service has been given by them In the
Russo-Japanese war and In the pres
ent conflict. Today woman physicians
are as prominent as men, and In some
cities there are many more female
than male dentists. More than 62
per cent of the teachers in the zemstvO
schools are women, and the census OF
1897 showed that there were four wom-
en- to every five men In the state and
public services.-Richard Washburn

ROYAL REVENGE.

QUEEN CHRISTINA Of Sweden only
" daughter of the great and good Gus
tavus Adolphus, kept all the gossips
of Europe in a ferment for many
years. After holding down the throne
of her fathers for four years, she vol
unfairly abdicated in favor Of her
cousin, in order that she might travel
and enjoy herself. At that period she
was young and beautiful and the most
learned and accomplished woman of
her time, and 1t is not strange that the
"Welcome to Our City" sign was hung
out whenever she deigned to visit q
burg.
Toward the close of the year 1857
she honored France with her presence,
and the palace of Fontainebleau was
turned over to her with the cOmpli-
ments of the season. She was attend
ed by royal retinue of servants. and
also by her grand equerry, Marquis
Monaldeschi.
This gentleman, as his name sug-
gests, was an Italian, and for a con-
siderable time had been the queens
favorite. They were recognized as
lovers and, since the queen had abdi-
Gated, 1t seemed more than possible
that they would be married and go to
housekeeping. The marquis was ex-
traordinarily handsome and gifted in
nll the graces and polite mannerisms

JUST BOX or CARDBOARD
Hundreds Of italian Families Use In
vention Costing Them Only
q Few Cents.

Every American housekeeper who
owns a freless cooker knows that II
allows her to go to matinee and find
the dinner all ready on her return. But
It Is to the honor and glory of Mrs.
Giuseppina Bianchi Geisser of Turin,
Italy, that she has discovered endless
cooking possibilities in the cardboard
box that took home her last Easter hat,
says New York World correspondent.
This Is how to do 1t: e
Take your strongest cardboard hat
box, and make sure 1t is neither broken
nor cracked. See that the cover shuts
tight. These two conditions are absO-
lutely essential. Fill your box with
either cottonwood, sawdust or hay,
well packed In and perfectly dry. Make
In the middle of this mass a hollow big
enough to hold your casserole, covering
1t up with the cottonwood sawdust or
hay-cotton-wool Is really the best.
Put whatever you want to cook into
your casserole. Boil 1t on the fire for
from ten to thirty minutes, according
to the nature of your food, then put 1t
In your hat box, where 1t will cook as
In the most expensive fireless cooker.
Then go to your matinee. Mrs. Geisser
says that you can leave 1t four hours
without hurting the meat or stew. All
the flavor is retained, for, being hermet-
ically sealed, the juices are preserved.
Boil the vegetables ten to fifteen min
| uts over the gas cooker or fire before
putting into the hat box and keep them
| there for two hours. Potatoes should
be ten minutes on fire and one hour in
hatbox, she thinks, and dried chestnuts
| twenty minutes on fire and two and q
half hours in, hat box. Mrs. Geisser
calculates that even with the hardest
| foodstuffs her system saves you from
80 to so per cent Of firing. Food keeps
| hot for ten hours in the box. The idea
| has so taken with Turin housewives
that hundreds Of families are now u.s.
ing 1t. A local cookery school gives
free lessons in the quickest way to turn
hat boxes into fireless cookers. One
woman discovered that the best way
to close up the lid is to sew automatic
| buttons all around 1t. All fireless cook
ers on the market cost lot of money.
This one can be made by any practical
woman for few cents.

| thing 1t Is only one of many. All
of the garden products that can be
used in tiny space are utilized, and
around the edges. to work in a little
| art along with utility, there are flow
ers.
The Rockefeller cabbage patch Is
located in the yard of the world-fa-
nous Rockefeller institute at Sixty
sixth street and the East river, New
York city. 1t is In this remarkable
| institution that the wise men of sci
ence try germs on monkeys and dogs
so that they can learn how to save
the lives Of babies and grownups. Many
of the greatest discoveries of science
have been made in the big building.
But when the master of the millions
came along he saw something beside
the germs and the mysterious re-
searches Of science in the vicinity. 1t
| occurred to him that the germs had
nothing to do with the yard about the
place, and that no amount of bacilli
could interfere with putting the open
| ground to some use.
SO he ordered that the women and
children In the congested, poor neigh
borhood be given chance to raise
vegetables on the unused yard. The or
der brought about transformation.
Now on any day one may see the
woman with the hoe at work on the
garden that fringes the skirts Of
great learning. She is not bowed by
the weight of centuriSc like Edward
Markham's famous "Nfun With the
Hoe" She is happy in the chance
to make a better table for her little
ones at the expense Of man whose
millions do not prevent him from see
ing little things clearly.
I wonder If my readers are using
their available space for garden pur-
poses with as much wisdom as the
very poor Of New York are doing in
the cabbage patch of the Oil King?

Effect Of Darkness on Gold Fish.

A scientist kept gold fish in roomy
tank and with plenty of food, but in
absolute darkness. He kept 1t up for
three years, and then observed the
notifications that had occurred In the
fish. The color first became black, but
after the second year 1t became golden
again, and the reason for this Is inter-
esting. In the first instance the dark
pigment cells spread out and covered
the subjacent layer Of crystals which
gives the gold fish its golden sheen. In
the second instance the phagocytes de-
voured the dark pigment cells, and thus
re-exposed the golden layer. The
changes In the eye were even more in
teresting. The structure Of the eye
was completely altered. The fish be-
came totally blind. The experiment
suggests that an individual fish impris-
oned in a perfectly dark cave would
become blind. But II does not throw
any direct light on the origin of blind
race of fishes in caves.-New York

CABBAGES AND A KING
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEN


When the Walrus, in the time-hon-
ored verse, called attention to the fact
that the time had come to speak Of
cabbages and kings, the beast did not
have any idea that the time would
come when there would be any actual
relationship between the two. Now
kings have come to know the value Of
the cabbage while the value of the
king has taken somewhat of slump
in the opposite direction.
This story deals with an Oil King
and cabbage crop. Midas, with his
fund of gold; Croesus, long mentioned
as a marvel of money, and the other
owners of large kingly chests were
hut ordinary pikers compared to John
ID. Rockefeller. He has in one vault
in the basement of the produce ex-
change In New York more hidden
wealth than all of the old kings put
together.
Yet he has a lively interest in rails
Ing cabbages.
His interest in this direction is valu-
aDle TO all OF the persons In the coun-
try who have garden plots because it
Is a lesson In the economy Of space,
and tip from the richest man in the
world as to the value of using every
spare spot for raising something from
the soil.
What he sees in New York is equally
possible on the most remote hillside in
America, and II. is for this reason
that I am showing you a picture of
the OIL Kings cabbage patch and tell
ing you how the man with the greatest
store Of wealth wisely refuses to let
a chance to raise even a tiny crop be
wasted. ~
When I say cabbages, do not mean
that the patch is confined to this one
