ENGLISH IT LES MORE COSTLY
 FUR HE|RESS
(By United press)

LONDON, Sept. 20. - There is strong movement under way in Eng land to make English titles harder to get. There is no disposition, let it be reassurinsly said, to put the bars up against American heiresses. So far as can be ascertained, the status quo ante is to be preserved in that re- spect, though the ante itself may be raised
 Americans may believe that the scandal of the English nobility is the manner in which a wealthy American girl may marry titled Englishman, and straightway become a duchess, more or less. But the real scandal is the manner in which many English men have obtained their own titles. For years there has been talk of the political trading involved, and now the bad feeling seems to have come to a head.
 Lord Selborne, with apparently un- impeachable right to his own title. having obtained the support of forty others similarly fortified, it is pre- sumed has put the matter up to the house of lords. He has proposed lit tie measure to require public an- nouneement of the reasons for all grants of honors and dignities. That is to say. when the prime ministers recommends to the king that Bill | Jones, Esq, be made Sir Bill Jones, K. c, B., he shall publish the fact and the wherefor. Since the king confers practically all such honors on the prime minister's suggestion, this. in the opinion of Lord Selborne and his heroic forty followers, should stop the evil
 But they have another bill This would require the prime minister to declare to the king. in each case, that no payment direct or indirect was made or promised in connection with the title grant. That is to say, that no contribution to the partys funds had been made by the eager recipient of the honor. The press is supporting Lord Selborne with enthusiasm. "The existence of the scandal is notorious" says the Times. The most valuable asset of the state, It's power to ennoble is cheapened and degraded and a tra- dition of honor becomes a means of corruption" says the Post.
 As said before, all this contains lit- tie to worry Ameriaan heiresses. If titles become scarcer they may cost little more in the marriage market, that is all. And they will not really be any scarcer in the circle at which the heiresses aim--the ancient and hard-up circle whose titles are of long standing,

A delicious dressing to use fer this

sauce made from three tablespoontuls
of flour rubbed smooth with the same
amount of butter and thinned with
some of the liquid in which the ham
has been boiled. After it has been well
cooked the sauce should be Of the con-

Ham Secrets.

From the point of view of economy
ham is still on the menu. For most
folk OF moderate income the flavor Of
beefsteak and lamb chops and viands
Of that sort are fast assuming the gulse
Of a pleasant memory. The flavor OF
ham is, at least for the present, very
pleasant reality. and when we'll cooked,
ham ought not to be excluded from the
bill Of fare on grounds of difficult di-
gestibility. Although ham does take a
little longer to digest than most meats,
that does not necessarily imply that it
is indigestible.
Perhaps there is no way Of prepar-
ing ham so as to combine both the
best flavor and the most wholesome
ness SO good as this: Soak the ham
over night In cold water and in the
morning set to boil in cold water
which should just cover the ham. Add
thinly sliced carrot and two chopped
onions. When the ham is about half
done. that Is when it has been boil
ing moderately for about one hour and
half. pour over 1t one quart Of cider.
Cook now until a fork will turn easily

Patriotism reigned supreme during a
large part of the Wednesday morning
session of the Maine Senate and after
numerous eloquent speeches in favor
and not voice raised in opposition,
the resolution providing for universal
military training in Maine. the report
of the committee on military affairs
Ought to pass" having been accepted,
was unanimously adopted and sent to
the House for concurrence.
Senator Holt of Cumberland on this
occasion made his maiden speech, fol-
lowing which he was warmly applaud
ed and congratulated. His eloquence
was added to and arguments empha-
sized by other intensely patriotic
speeches by Senators Gillin of Penob-
scot, Butler of Knox, Wood of Han
cock and Davies of Cumberland.
The scene in the Senate during this
part.of the proceedings was impressive
to a degree not heretofore displayed in
that body and at its close not the
slightest doubt could be entertained as
to the intense feeling and earnest pur-
pose behind all the utterances. The
greatest interest was shown by the
spectators, the number of which rap
idly increased as the word OF the
patriotic outburst passed through the
Capitol. One of them was heard to
remark, after the passage of the re-
solve by unanimous vote:
"Some different from the recent I'M
patriotic actions in the United States
Senate"
| And all who heard the remark
agreed with the speaker.
