THE YACHT RACE.

1t is not unlikely that the action of the New York Yacht club upon the challenge of the Royal Ulster Yacht club for race for America's cup next summer will be disappointment both 10 the club and 10 Sir Thomas Lipton who Is of course back of the challeuge and who provides the challenging yacht. But he can no doubt fully un- derstand the positioB which has been taken in this countrg and which may have been anticipates in advance.
 The challenge at this time when peace has not been arranged and when the work of bringing about the read instment which must follow is going 10 occupy the attention of the whole country came as somewhat of a sur prise. for while it is evident that things will be gotten hack to normal Just as rapidly as possible there had hardly been time enough allowed for thoughts to again turn to an inter- national yacht race. It can be real

EDITORIAL NOTES.

From all reports it looks as if MT spellacy has gotten tired of sticking to his job.
 Have you made # point this sea- son to see that all yepr packages were mailed early2
 Henceforth # is to be expected that "up in the air' is going to be the ex- cuse for any delay in the delivery Of mail.
 Or course the exkaiseF knows that going into Holland was not the first time that he went where he was not wanted.
 The aerial mail service might be able to get some good points if the heads should have 2 conference with Santa Claus
 Any moving picture that was made of Frederick William being chased by women will probably be entitled Fhe Grown Sprint.
 There can be ne qusstipn but what it will be helmet rather than a help meet that the American soldier will bring home from Germany.
 Regardless of what language is SpokeH af tnS Rsd&e eSPEeFCncS IL $ safe to say that the fellow who starts to talk in German will not get far
 If the former kaiser has been hear ing all that the world has been say ing about him there can be no wonder that he is suffering from ear trouble
 The man on the esrner ssys: There is no question, but what there will b. many who will insist qBen going over the top In the final Christmas rush
 MT. Rurlsssn's talk about gettina the wire lines without costing the government a penny is like references which we have heard about becom- ing taxless city in 1925.

VeeuE OF THE SASH.

However it is introduced, the sash is distinctive feature of the autumn frock. Even the tailored serge. fash toned severely, wifh high cellar and long tight sleeves, boasts d sash these dags-at least one chic model does, the sash being of the material and terminating in wide bow at the nqr- nal waist1ine in the back. Another use for the material sash is on the velvet frock, one example being an cid rose velvet gown worn by young girl in one of the new plays. It is q delightfully."- simple gown, one piece, medium width skirt and wide girdle and broad boy of the velvet. A mar row band oS kolinsky outlines the rennd neck and edges the modified kimeRe sleeves.
 The sash, one the order of the sweat CT accessory, of medium width and finished with bands and tassels of silk is still in vogue, and it is narticularly adapted to the trim little gown ot tricolette or the equally supple wqel scrim.

PROTECTING THE PUBLIC.

To anyone who has had any exReri- ence in being 9eeced by the ticket scalpers and other agencies outside Q the box offices of big city theaters, there will be no surprise that the beard of aldermen in New York city has come to the conclusion that there was need for placing a check Upon the evil and has followed up it's be lief by passing g new ordipance which is intended to regulate thls business.
 Accqrdipg to the provisions of the ordinance license of S29o a year is required of all brokers in theater tickets, which of course refers to all places where theatnr tickets may he obtained outside Of the theater boz offices. It is also stipulated that no ticket can be sold at more than 30 cents ahove the regular price, of the ticket. this being permitted as 2 raccmGense for whatever accomnoda-
 ton is involved therein, and it is fur
 hcc ordered that there shall be no soliciting of pers9ns on the streets by any pefson or agency with tickets to sell.
 This marks a radical change in re- gard to this matter of ticket selling. It will not provide Ry more theatri- cal tickets but it wiN mako it irnpos- sible for the public to be gouged out of their cash by those who make it q practice of holding much sought tick cts at fancy prices. Hepceforth the box offices should do a bigger busi- ness with the theater patrons them selves. But this will of course all de- rend upon how well the ordinance is enforced. If it is simply started of well and then forgotten conditions are not only likely to but certainly will get back just where they were before any ordinance was passed. The pro- lection has long been needed and it should be fully enforced.

FRIeHTFULNEss AT HOME.

If anyone thought that the south Eoul have much more consideration tor the NegrU - tfie result of the part ehioh he has played in ;he war just tnded. not much encouragement is be- ing received from the reports which Are coming from southern states in the last few weeks. It may be that these are cases on which judgment should not be based but certainly they do not show any inclination to give the colored people the rights to which they are entitled.
 The latest instance of lynching does not involve any Of the Negro treons but Mississippi adds 10 it's already long list Of injustices the murder O. two men and two women who though hey may have been suspected of kill Ing a white man, were not given the semblancc of n trial. a chance to show heir innocence er to receive su h Fnnishment as is prescribed hy the laws of the commonwealth.

 In both instances the acts cannot be regarded in any other light than mur- der and all because the persons whose lives were taken were not white thpFgi that in no way made them ether than human beings.

 Save the water in which potatoes have been boiled. It is excellent for spong.ng soiled silk and ribbons. v
 When making a fruit tart, mix 2 lit tie cornstarch with the sugar before adding it. This will make the juice thick and prevent it boiling over.
 To remove stains from the kitchen table, rub with vinegar, then scrub in the usual way.
 If when boiling milk it should burn pour it into clean pan and stand the pan in basin of cold water till quite cold. The burned taste will entirely disappear.
 When you are peeling onions see that your head is on a level with the vegetables and your eyes will never water This remedy is 9 sure and well
 When you have been peeling onions put both the knife and your hands be- meath the cold water tap and let the water run over them freely for a few seconds. If you touch them with warm water first the smell will finger. but cold water takes it right away. Cleaning knives on a knife board or in 9 machine helps to wear them out. Fhe best way is to dip a cork in knife powder and rube the knife blade with it, firmly and evenly. If the knives are very stained. rub them first in just the same way with piece of raw po- tato.

USING PRESERVED EGGS.

Fresh, clean eggs. properly pyeserved, can be used satisfactorily for all pur- poses in cooking and for the table. When an egg preserved in water glass is to be boiled, a small hole should be made in the shell with a pin at the -arge end before placing it in the water. This is done to allow the air in the egg to escape when heated and prevent cracking.
