Coins Scarce in France,
Eoardiag Held Responsible


PARIS, Jan. so (by mail). = The
scarcity. Of copper coins in France is
row said to be due to an incompre-
hensible boarding of them particularly
in the country districts. That is the
conclusion reached by the Ministry of
Finance after an exhaustive inquiry
Silver coin is also boarded to a con-
siderable extent, but the consequences
are not so annoying because of the in
creased quantities of fractional paper
currency put into circulation.
A law was introduced in the Chamber
of Deputies providing for the demon
'tization of all silver coins bearing the
efligy Of Napoleon in order to bring
some OF the silver out Of hiding. 1t is
now proposed to include in the measure
the demonitization of all copper
money.

Denounces Principle
OF Red Cross Bill
Senator Brown Says Nicoll-
Never Measure Has "Theft"
Basis

ALBANY, Feb. 26 The Nicoll-
Meyer bill, authorizing corporations u
contribute to the Red Cross and other
war charities recognized by the govern
ment, was characterized by Senator
Elon r. Brown, majority leader of the
Senate. as "Bolsheviki in its conception
and should have a Bolshevikian finish"
Courtlandt Nicoll, who introduced the
bill IN TIE Senate. explained that it was
drafted by Henry p. Dawson, head Of
The Red Cross, and Judge Ingraham.
TO this Senator Brown replied:
"If ever say q piece Of legislation
typical Of a decadent citizenship, this
Is it. 1t has been stated that the bill
was drafted by Judge Ingraham and
Henry p Dawson. For both of these
gentlemen [ have the utmost respect,
and I admire greatly what Mr.. Dawson
is doing. l have also respect for the

l&ture cannot empower directors in any

but as to taste. no other soup can be
compared with it,
There must have been great rejoic-
ing in turtle land when the soul of old
John Carbell took its dight to the
happy hunting grounds. Making turtle
soup was Johns business. God only
knows how many innocent turtles he
had slaughtered. He had a colored chap
as assistant. Two days was the time
required to make the soup. The two
partners would make more fuss in kill
ing the trutle than a bunch of Italian
peasants would in killing pig. That
done, they would boil the different
parts of the turtle in separate pots.
A strong stock was made with a whole
neck Of beef. four calf's heads, one
dozen bcef's feet. all kinds of vege-
tables, such as carrots. lcek, parsley,
celery, green's, etc. When cooked, the
white and green meats Of the turtle
were taken off and ollowcd to cool, to
be cut in small square pieces. The
broths were then mixed together and
solved into shreds. The process took
the whoo day and night. Next day
the soup was strained into two very
large iron pots. A flannel bag full Of
all kinds OF grouDd spices, including
mace, thyme. sweet mariOram. sage,
nutmeg, black and red pepper, allspice.
cloves, etc, was dropped into one of
the pots and shifted to the other every
half hour or so. squeeze the bag,
George old John would say to his
colored helper each time that the bag
was transferred from one pot to the
other. After boiling all day, and
squeezing that bag many times, the cut
up meats Of the turtle were added to
the soup After half an hour more
Of cooking, a whole quart bottle of
sherry and brandy was poured into the
soup. which was then taken from the
fire and allowed to cool in tin cans.

With the advent OF the automobile,

Last month | took a stroll through
Central Park and was sadly impressed
by the loneliness of our magnificent
playground. The weather was very
cold, the drives covertd with snow, and
not a soul was to be seen walking or
conspicuous by his invisibility. What
a contrast with the Central Park of
a quarter of q century ago! What good
sleighing could be had; you could then
see continuous string of sleighs gld-
ing merrily over the drives, enlivening
the park with the sound of their bells
and the joyous voices OF the riders.
The two park restaurants, the Casino
and McGowan's Pass Tavern. were then
fairly crowded. At the tavern (Which
was torn down last year the long since
departed Gabe Case, its landlord, was
on deck ever, sleighing day, sitting in
the hall close to his celebrated par
rot, greeting almost every newcomer
by his first name. He seemed to know
everybody. The cafe especially was
we'll patronized on those days. Quite

Club members used to meet there.
stories, like that of the old mare with
the false tail. and the quail-eating con-
test, were rehashed for the twentieth
time or more. and drew as much APP
plause as if related for the first time.
With their appetitcs sharpened by
the keen, frosty air, and a few drinks,
the jolly fellows would also feel like
having something to eat. Most of them
were satisfied with the bountiful free
lunch which was frequently passed
around Others (shocked at some Of
the noisiest ones, who, after ingurgi-
tating six cups OF clam broth. half
q pound of cold corned beef, liberal
slice of sage cheese sandwiched be-
tweentwo large chowder crackers, had
always their minds occupied some
where else when came their turn to
treat), would order dinner, rightly
thinking that the landlord should also
make some money out of his restaI-
rant.
This was quite naturally the SOUP
selected being also one of the Tavern
specialties. Two heipings of that soup
were enough to satisfy ones hunger.
Such delicious soup can hardly be
found anywhere nowadays. Not be-
cause our cooks cannot make it. but be-
cause our present clear green turtle
soup, with its transparent amber color,
looks by far more attractive and. con-
sequently, is much more popular, es-
'.secially with the ladies'.
The old Hoboken Turtle Club soup
certainly did not look appetizing in
appearance to the uninitiated, being
turbid and of dark greenish color,

years as assessor to the finance depart

Park Street Church
 Raises Annual Income
 In Long Day Canvass

At Park street Congregational church, Sunday, a good congregation turned out in the morning. After Dr. Boards sermon on Multiplied Lives" an address on the needs and opportunities of the Church was made by Newton H. Hoyt, chairman of the finance and missions committees.
 A blackboard had been placed on she platform, showing in the form of two thermometers the minimum amounts which the Church expected for it's own support and for Christian missions. That for Church support was set at $6,500, and that for benev- olence at $3,00O. This was an ad- vance of about $1,O00 on the total as it now stands, which with the un- avoidable losses due to death and re- moval through the year, left about $S,5OO.
 MT. Hoyt was assisted by about 30 men and women who received sub- scription cards, and as fast as these were tabulated on the calculating ma- chine, the mercury rose in the thermometers. Cards came in free ly.- The exact amounts returned were. for church expenses, $6,324, and for benevolence, $3,064. The com mittee had abundant assurances from those who had not yet made returns that the slight difference between $6,324 and $6,5OO would be more than made up.

"When we find the name House or Senate as used in the Constitution, there is no room for question: as to their meaning. No jugglery can give to either name the meaning of quar- ter, third, majority, or any other fraction. It means the whole House or whole Senate, whatever the num- Der composing the body.
 Constitution Is Quoted
 ''In Article II. Section 2, Paragraph 2, the President is given the power to make treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur. In these instances alone do we find specific definitions and~limitations as to what number may or may not do. Applying the well known maxim 'expressio un- jus est exclusio alterius' (to express the one is to exclude the alternative) we are justified in claiming two-thirds of all the members of the Senate and House of Representatives are neces- sary when Congress undertakes to propose amendments to the Constitu- tion.
 But the strongest evidence Is to be found in Article 5, itself. The article stands alone, without subdivision into sections or paragraphs. It relates to a subject distinct and apart from any other article, section or paragraph of the Constitution. And when that ar- ticle declares that Congress, whenever two-thirds of both Houses shall deem 1t necessary, shall propose amend ments to this Constitution, it means what it says, and that a fraction of either House less than two-thirds of the members, of that House can moi

Falling Halr.-It is a fact that some of you have been out of pa tience with me for not sooner taking up the subject of the hair, but you will admit that there have been So many conditions demanding atten- ton that 1t is impossible to give all of them early attention. Then, too, so many of you are now supplied with the Home Health Club book, Vol. 8, in which I have devoted an entire chapter to the subjec3 that I have thought you could get along for the time being.
 One of the primary requisites for healthy hair is a good circulation and cleanliness. It is a difficult matter to have good circulation in the scalp and at the same time wear a stiff or hard hat as so many men do. Now, l know that the hair has been called a vegetable growth and I have never taken the trouble to explain why this impression prevails, but that is no reason or excuse for the condition of some of the scalps, I have found, where there seemed to be an attempt to make a heavy growth of the vege table matter through the accumula- ton of soil.
 The hair and scalp should be wash cd very thoroughly at least once each week. The best kind of soap fot such a wash Is made from pure vege- table oils and potash. It should con tain but little if any free alkaH; usually find 1t best for cleansing the In Vrha da In ct soft soap as it is sometimes called.
 In some cases the skin over the head seems to contract, becomes as we sometimes find the skin of 8 horse, "hide bound" If one at tempts to manipulate the scalp under such conditions, 1t appears to hays grown fast to the skull and does not move freely and easily under the fingers. This condition will cause falling hair, and should be remediet as soon as possible,
 A thorough massage with the tip: of the fingers at least once daily vii aid in loosening the tightly drawT scalp and free the roo;s of their hail so that 1t will again grow in vigor' ous and healthy manner. In somt cases of this kind the use of a gooC scalp lotion, olive oil or liquid vase line will be very helpful. Some pre- fer the liquid vaseline rather thar olive oil but I believe 1t is not st readily absorbed and Is much nor difficult to wash out
 Any oil or lotion should be ap piled at night and a stocking cap O skull cap should then be put on This not only causes the oil to re main in close contact with the scall but protects the bedding and pill lows
 The scalp should receive thorougl shampoo either the next morning o evening and in either event shoult be kept covered until thoroughly dry It is frequently necessary to repea the oil rub about twice a week for month or two, and if a scalp lotiol is used 1t can, of course, be repeate' frequently because 1t is not nearly S much work or trouble.
 Here is a formula for making scalp lotion or hair tonic. as 1t woul be called, if made and sold as an ad vertised remedy. A part of tht formula was published some time az
