GARDNER AND THE TRAMP

They were telling story about
Representative Gardner and his fef-
vent preparedness campaign.
1t seems that a begging tramp ap-
preached group Of congressman, and
one Of them pointed out Mr.. Gardner
and said:

that gentleman there Is very charit-
able, and II you tackle him you'll be
apt to make haul"
Tanks, boss" said the tramp,
huskily, and he hurried to Mr.. Gard
ner, while the others looked on with
interest.
The tramp and the statesmen
were seen to talk earnestly together
for some time. Then their hands met,
piece Of money plainly passed be-
tween them, and the tramp stepped
jauntily away.

tables are used they should be fresh
and crisp and usually the salad is bet
ter If mixed just before serving, not
to destroy the crispness as that Is
the chief charm of n salad.
TIL kind Of salad dressing to use de-
pends upon the combination and upon
the taste OF the persons to be served.
The simple French dressing is one that
Is most commonly liked and one which
Is so easily prepared that it appeals
to the busy housewife. One part Of
strong vinegar to three parts oil is
usually sufficiently acid. then with the
addition Of salt and red pepper to
taste, when well beaten and allowed
to chill 1t is ready to serve.
A touch Of garlic or onion is liked
for flavor In many vegetable salads.
This may be obtained by rubbing cut
Glove of garlic over the inside Of the
salad bowl or rubbing piece of bread
which Is placed In the bottom Of the
bowl to season the whole dish. This
Is called q chapon. This bread may
be In one piece or In small cubes and
served with the salad II liked.
When parsley Is to be used gather
well washed bunch In the hand and
with sharp knife shred 1t very fine
gather the leaves closely with the
fingers. then chop the parsley with the
knife until very fine. Put the finely
chopped herb In cloth and hold un-
der stream OF water, wiring dry and
use this green powder to dust over
the salad.
Radishes may be cut to look like
tulips. With a sharp knife score the
red skin at the root end into five or
six sections extending up the radlsh
nearly to the stem, then loosen the
skin and place In cold water when
they will become crisp and the points
will stand out like the petals of a
flower.
Small pickles or gherkins may be
cut In very thin slices lengthwise with
out detaching at one end. then spread
out the slices as fan Is spread. Use
as a garnish.
Cucumbers are delicious served
sliced with sour cream dressing
This is especially well liked by the
Germans.
Endiye served In bowl, rubbed
with garlic, sprinkle with chopped
chives and serve with string beans,
with French dressing.

Making Artificial Skating Rink

From the Electrical World
 In the Washington Heights district of New York city there has recently been opened an indoor ice skating rink, the refrigeration for which is furnished by electrically driven apparatus. What care must be exercised in making such an ar tificial rink is shown in the following description of the above plant, contained in the Electrical World.
 Covering the concrete foundation which supports the rink is layer of 2-inch cork slabs laid with the long dimension across the rink. The seams running length wise of the rink are staggered Over this insulation was laid another layer of cork boards with their long dimension lengthwise of the hall. No attempt was made to stagger the seams of the upper layer. Oiled canvas one-e:ghth inch thick, sewed and cemented together in one piece, was placed over the entire area and turnd up on all sides to form the ice tank. The brine pipes which are 1.25 inch in diameter, are placed about 8 inches apart on short wooden strips to allowed the water which has to be frozen to completely surround them. The ice is 6 inches to inches thick, making the entire tank when full weigh about 102 tons. About AS hours is required for the initial freezing.

 France of late years has been occu pied in saving and spending; new so cial laws have continually increased pub lie expenditures and added to the famil. mans taxes until just before the war tn budget amounted to 125 francs (s25) head for every inhabitant.

 "The possibility of remedying the sit uation by legislation has already beer proven" said Dr. Pinard. who urges tn adoption of the law proposed by Monseu Rerazet, deputy of the indre.

 ''The bringing up of children in publi institutions is a failure," Professor. Pin ard declares. France will repeople fl self only through the family.

Electricity on the Deutschland

From the Electro News oerVlct.
 There was little mention made in the public press of the part that electricity played in making possible the plucky journey of the mercantile submarine Deutschland, from her home port in Ger many to Baltimore, distance of 3S0O miles, in 16 days. Yet without her storage batteries and propelling motors enabling her to navigate beneath the surface, and full equipment of electric winches lights and wireless, naval engineers agree that the voyage would have been regarded as foolhardy, if not impossible.
 During her voyage. most Of which was made on the surface, the Deutschland was propelled by two crude oil engines. In addition to propelling the craft on the surface these engines were connected to electric generators to keep the storage batteries in the bottom of the boat fully charged. Even while running on the sur face the electric current was of -iinpor- tance in lighting the interior forcing fresh air in the living quarters, and op- erating the wireless. Electric winches were also used for raising and lowering the anchor and loading cargo and sup plies.
 When danger threatened and strange ships were sighted the Deutschland was

An. Ambitious Burmese Girl

Lucy M. Peabody in World Outlook.
 The loveliest picture we saw in our short week in busy, bustling Burma met us one day when we were leaving the Vinton compound in Rangoon. where we had enjoyed afternoon tea with a group of missionaries, some of whom have been in Burma 50 years. At the gate we met tall. beautiful young woman who startled us by her re- markable queenliness and grace. We caught the name, Nah So and list ened to her welcome in really beau tiful English
 "Who is this wonderful person?' we said to the presidents lady, who es- corted us.
 Just one of our Christian girls. but wonderful person. indeed.' was the answer "She came to our girls school, graduated. and with four others asked to be admitted to the college.
 We could not consider it, the col lege being for men only. Persistence won, however, and the girls came with the promise of discreet behavior and supervision by some of the fac ulty ladies who sympathiZed.
 No harm came to the girls nor to the proud young Burman students, eX cept that their pride suffered somewhat as this young woman gracefully won the honors of the class with her de- gree.
 'She then crossed the bay to Ben gal and took a medical course in Cal cutta university. winning the fellow ship awarded by the university for course in Dublin university.

 "The British government was eager to secure her for the important po- sition at the head of the Lady Duffer- in hospital in Rangoon. Her honors had not spoiled her." added the presf- dents lady.

 So much for the past. What can be said of this weeks stock market follow ing last Tuesdays election? During the excitement of the campaign MT Hughes said in his speeches that Eve are under the unhealthy stimulus of the European var" that ''our present prosperity is built on sand;" that when the war is over our manufacturers will have to compete with production ''more skilful more intelligent, better organized in every one of the foreign nations now at war than it has ever been" That was all right as campaign stuff but MT. Hughes either knew more or pretended to know more than the most experienced finan- cers and economists in Wall street. Be fore the fever of the election was felt there was not prominent financier in Wall street who did not admit frankly that as far as we were concerned indus trially and financially it was a matter of no concern whether MT. Hughes or MT. Wilson won.
 Every banker in Wall street knows perfectly well that the unprecedented prosperity now being enjoyed by this country is based on the fact that, during the nine months ended with September of 1916 the sales of merchandise by states to other countries exceeded the amounts purchased as follows: France, $546 759, O00 Italy, $153, ,922, 900; Russia. $2S1, ,134, ,000 the United Kingdom, $1,136S2S, 900.

The Fallacy of Universal Peace

ne fdIlHCy Ol OIlNcISdl cdCc
 By Sydney Brooks in Harper's Magazine. To those who believe in and dream of and work for coming time of univer
 sal peace I would say, Nationality, there is the enemy" From what I have seen of their labors I do not imagine that many of them have vet looked at it in that light. They seem to think that some purely mechanical device can insure peace without disturbance to
 the human background and motive of all wars. They have never realized the fundamental antimony between peace and patriotism. They have never, in consequence, taken the true measure of their enterprise or mastered that first principle of strategy which counsels a concentration of forces at the decisive point The essential problem before them is to supersede the appeal of na- tionality, which is by it's very nature a
 partial and a bellicose appeal, by set ting before the world and drilling into it's consciousness some higher and more embracing ideal. There is. indeed, d concevably shorter road to their goal, but it is one they are debarred from recommending. If. as have said, some one power were to dominate the mod ern world as Rome dominated the an- cient, it might for perhaps a century or two impose by sheer force an abso- lute cessation of strife But pacifsts in general, I apprehend, are not pre- pared to welcome or to further any such solution. There remains for them,
 then, the slow, endless, heart-break- ing effort to substitute for this instinct
 or tradition of patriotism the bond of a wider union; to set up against the claim of nationality the superior claim of humanity; to enlarge and broaden the vision of men till they see in from tiers and boundaries nothing but ham pering restrictions that obscure the view of the vaster brotherhood beyond | When men cease to think of them selves as belonging to this country or to that, but simply and naturally as citizens of the world. and when they rise into the clearer atmosphere that | is unvitiated by prejudices of race or speech or national bias. then the i'm 1 purse to wars will have spent itself.

submerged, and it was then that the elec- trical machinery was depended upon en- tirely to propel here beneath the water out of the danger zone. On such occa- sions the oil engines were shut down and supply of current from the storage batteries used to operate two electric mo- tors attached to propollers. In this way, according to Captain Koenig, the subma- rine could travel a distance of 100 miles without rising to the surface to recharge the storage cells On the voyage to Amer ica the submarine was submerged a to- tai distance of 90 miles, most of which was necessary in passing through the closely patrolled North sea.
