 AND PEACE IS GER TAIN

reached the Mexican ambassador on tuesday last and was given to the state department yesterday. The reply of the head of the de facto Mexican government ends the crisis Carranza no longer m- sists upon the immediate withdrawal ot the Anerl- can troops. He admits that the objection to thelr withdrawal on account of the insecurity to the bor- der IS reasonable, and agrees to accept mediation of all differences
 Carranza's reply to the American demands IS con- ciliatory in tone, giving assurances of deslre to reach friendly adjustment of the differences be- tween the two nations. While the document was delivered to the state department today, no formal comment was made by the officials, who do not, however. conceal the fact that the note IS most sat- stacoy.

TYPICAL PILGRIM FEAST
BY BIDDY BYE

The New England style of Thanks
giving dinner which housewives now
accept as a precedent for menu max
ing has only few features in COM
mon with the original feast of 1921.
None of the manuscripts left by
the Pilgrims gives the bill the bill of
fare for the first Thanksgiving fes-
tival, which last a week, but they list
the supplies the Pilgrims had.
1t is recorded that beside water
foule Their was great store of wild
turkies." There was also sea-food,
Venison, barley loaf and cakes of In
dian meal. AS for vegetables, they
are numbered in rhyme made by
his excellency, the governor:
'A1 sorts of roots and herbs in gar
dens grow
Parsnips, carrots, turnips, or what
you'll SOW,
Onions, melons, cucumbers, radishes,
Skirets, beets, cOleworts and fair
cabbages."
Although turkey is symboIicaI of
Thanksgiving hospitality, it should
divide honors with some dish of corn
meal. Here are two simple corn meal
recipes:
Corn Cakes With Water
Mix 4 cupfuls sifted cornmeaI with
/ teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon of
melted fat, and cold water enough to
make dough which can be shaped
with the hands. Mold into thin oval

cakes and bake on hot stones in an
open fire or on a creased griddle.
Spider Corn Cakes

Sift ~ cups cornmeal with 1 tea
spoon soda and l teaspoon salt, add
gradually 2 well-beaten eggs and 2
cups sour milk; use 2 tablespoons of
butter or other fat to grease an iron
frying pan; turn in the batter, heat
well on top of stove, then set in oven
for 20 minutes.

the mail won't be due for two days.
And nobody will know whether the
light is burning or not, except the
folks here, and it isn't their business.
You stay here, viii, beside our

you leave me. to Sit alone beside the
baby you need never come back.
Choose between your light and your
child"
- Something logged rose up in the
mans breast. ct isn't a case of
choosing, Julie" he answered. 1--WE
got my job to do and l am going to
do it."
She said not another word as he
went out, but afterward, he always
remembered her impIacable face as
she watched him close the door.
He pulled madly across the little
passage. His work would occupy
him perhaps two hours; he. believed.
that no change would have occurred
in the baby's condition by the time
he reached home. Of course Julie
was temporarily distraught
But when he reached the light
house he found that something had
gone wrong with the apparatus
which supplied the oil vapor through
the feed pipe. The tiny channel was
clogged, and the whole mechanism
had to be taken to pieces and
cleaned. It was heart-breahng
work; it would take him all night,
and there was need of haste at that,
before the reservoir at the top gave
out and let out the flame.

he could put out the light, refill and
hasten homeward.
But during the night a strange
change had taken place in the man.
jules menace had assumed pOFten-
toUs shape in his mind. And in imag-
ination he saw the child dead and
the body lying in it's little cradle in
their wrecked home.
She should not drive him away! He
would go back for Doris sake and
stay. He would fight down her
wrath all his life long, if necessary,
but he would stay.
He took his boat and pulled across
the channel. Would he arrive in time
to see the baby alive? What had hap
pened during that night Of suffering?
He grounded it on the beach and
began running wildly up the slope.
There stood his cottage, trim and
neat as if death were not a visitor
inside. He pushed open the door.
His wife sat beside the cradle, her
head against the edge. He thought
that she was dead, so still she
seemed. But at his step she raised
her head and opened her eyes.
The haggard eyes Of the man trav-,
eled from Julietta's worn face to the
still body inside the cradle. A hoarse
cry broke from his lips. He STUN
bled forward.
Doris lay, little ivory thing, in
side. He thought she was dead. But
was that a tinge of color in the
wan cheeks?
And then his suspense was ended.
For the lids opened, disclosing the
blue eyes within and the ghost of a
smile made it's appearance on the
wasted little face. And two weak
hands were appraised toward him.
"Papa" murmured the babe.
Will caught her in his arms and

The Wooden Coach

The horrible railway disaster at Amherst, O., on
the New York Central line in which n persons were
killed, is being investigated by federal, state and
officials.
Between them, the three sets of prObers ought tol
cover the ground And they ought to find an mme
date answer to the first question which every mani
in the wreck, if any, were built OIL
wood or largely Of wood!
Photos of the wreck published in The Times show
heaps of kndling wood at the spot where the most
bodies of the dead and dying were taken out, and It'll
occurs to critical persons that allstee would
show up in pictures as twisted and bent masses
rather than as sticks and splnters.
The one thing man thinks about when he goes to
take train is whether the car he is about to enter
is of steel or wood. That is why the public is now
so curious about the death cars in the Amherst
wreck, and why the publ cought not to be diverted
from getting an immediate and satisfactory answer
to this tremendously important question.
Whatever starts it, there cannot be too much agi-
tation about this vital matter For far as the travel
ing public is concerned, it will remain the one big
gest question about railway management until the
last wooden passenger car has disappeared from the
railway lines Of this country

"Scoring a Beat''

Tacoma evening paper last night emitted an ed
itoral to the effect that it had 'scOred beat
in printing article regarding ROosevelt's political
attitude. The gist Of the news was that the g. O.
T. must Take Roosevelt or Fight Him.
We don't exactly know what the esteemed EDITORS
idea Of scoring beat may be, but evidently it
differs from ours
If he will consult page one of The Times for Jan.
Is he will find there, prominently displayed arti-
Gle from Gibson Gardner at Washington, d. c.,
headed. "Olive Branch Scatter Gun: II. r. Give
En- Choice. which contains every particle of infOr-
nation which this other paper now claims is "a
beat
One of Gardeners paragraphs in that Times article
reads as follows:
"To all ntents and purposes the colonel has APP
peared before the republican managers with an olive
branch in one hand and a sawedoff shotgun in the
other! BETWEEN NOW AND JUNE THE
GENTLEMEN OF THE G. o. p. MUST CHOOSE
WHICH THEY WILL TAKE!'
Following it's words Of elatiOn it's terrific
cheat the funny evening paper referring to
added some words of panied surprise because The
Times and the other Tacoma dailies had not followed
in on the latest Roosevelt story exctedly it's
editor had anticipated.
Probably the fact that the story had been printed
in Tacoma 90 days ago will account for this Strange
phenomenon.

Let the TRUTH PreVailg +
SeWer a Menace

The invention of the sewer is menace to the world
1t takes the waste matter from houses and with it
poisons our streams.
Why are the cities along our great lakes, our
smaller lakes, our river and streams always threaten
ed by epidemics of typhoid and other diseases,
tually suffering from them!
SEWERS EMPTYING INTO THE WATER
COURSES. That is almost the sole answer
This poison which destroys the human race when
uiced into the streams, is meat for the land 1t is
liquid fertility. 1t is taken from the land, and it be-
longs to the land
The restoring to the farms of the fertility
shipped to the cities is of greatest nation
al problems.
The United States department of agriculture has
sent out bulll in which it is stated that in cities
of 100000 the reduction of garbage by methods which
will leave a residue useful for fertilizer has been
proved to be profitable. In smaller communities it
might well be self-sustaining ton Of raw garbage
at the present prices of grease, potash, phosphaes
and amona is worth about So: it ought to be worth
more since the prices of the fertilizer elements are
higher than for many years. and these figures old
Garbage is that portion of the refuse of cities which
does not pass out i'll the accumulate in other
forms
1t alone represents a LOSS IN CASH TO THIS
NATION of from S4.7S0,000 to $7,000,000 annually.
Like sewage if not used proftaby it breeds pests and
pestilenccs and usually disposed of it poisons
ters and renders premises unsightly well as UNI
healthful. Garbage is the favorite breeding ground
of the typhoid fly.
ONLY SIX CITIES IN THE UNITED STATES
OPERATE THEIR OWN REDUCTION PLANTS.
Suppose it doesn't pay the city to do the
human, enlightened, and clean thing? Is that
any reason for their not doing it?
Every city, town and village should be forced
by enlightened public sentiment to convert all
these things into economically useful things.
They should be forbidden to pollute the streams
And enlightened public sentiment should be
backed up by law.

Farewell, my gentle night-shrt, who have meant
so much to me, your cozy arms and roomy neck
never more may see for you re going to the laundry
and my soul is filled with pain when think of how
you'll change before look on you again.
Farewell, my gay pajamas, sweet insprers of my
dreams, you are going to the slaughter with we'll
fashioned double seams but when you wander back
to me you'll faded be, and DID, and your shrinkage
will be eloquent of nights made long by cold.
My fair young shirt, for which paid two dollars
at the store, I'll never your buttons nor your
colors any more So tenderly I'll stuff you now in

lent for hash, scalloped Dishes croquettes, loaf
and salads. Leftover beef, lamb or mutton make
excellent sews, with the addition of any leftover
vegetables. Any leftover meat vegetables and
gravy may be used to make meat pie. A leftover

bean soup. Any kind of cold meat may be chopped
and used in an omeet, or, combined with rice and to-
matoes, used for scalOped dish
