public at once. The only departure he has made from his policy is in assembling a pamphlet of day-byday notes made at the outset of the war giving his personal impressions on various phases of the war. This is not in the line of disclosures or revelations, but rather of vigorous personal criticism of Germap off cial and military methods. he said. One of his references to German conditions is as follows:
 "The general feeling of the people since the outbreak of the war is that Gd'man diplomacy has failed everywhere. Many assert that it has been due to day to day policy of opportunism without farreaching plans. My opinion is that it could not have done better with the con- trolling and continual interference exercised by the kaiser. Only he who bowed to every wish of the kaiser could retain his L!2ce, and al wanted to stay. There age few peo- pie in Germany with convictions SC strong that they will give up Il is tracies and offices in order to up- hold their convictions.

GROCER PENALIZED FOR VIOLATION OF
 FOOD REGULATIONS

N. F. Zimmerman. groceryman of ketchikan, for violating regulations of the food administration in selling ten sacks of flour without first ap- plying for and obtaining a permit from the local administrator at that place, was made to close his place of business during the month of July. A large sign reading: "Closed for Violation of Federal Food Regu- lations" was placed upon his door by the administrator.
 This is the first case of a direct penalty being imposed upon a dealer in the territory for violation of the rules and regulations. It will not be the last, however, where viola tions are willfully made.

MADE NEW MAP OF EUROPE
How the Congress of Vienna Took
Fruits Of Napoleon's Victories
From Vanquished France,

The fall Of Napoleon entailed the re-
making Of the map Of Europe. The
congress opened on November /, 1914.
England, Austria, Russia and Prussia
from the very first insisted upon regu-
lating all problems among themselves
and excluded France from the DELHI
erations. King Louis XVIII, however,
prevented this ostracism and succeed
ed in being admitted, together with
the secondary states.
Finland and the duchy Of Varsow
were given to Russia. The duchy of Po-
sen, part of Saxony and that of Hano-
yer, the principality Of NeuchateI, Co
logne and Treves, were coded to Prus-
STA, Austria got back Istria, DaImatia,
Friuli Mantua, Venice, Lombardy, Ty-
rol and Croatia. The pope recovered
his states. The house of Bourbon re-
covered Naples and Madrid. England
obtained the principal French colonies.

FOODS THAT AFFECT VOICE
Spices and Condiments to Be AVoides
by Those Who Use Their Organs
of Speech Much.

Certain foods or spices exercise
positive influence upon the voice. The
voices of the alcohOlist and smoker
are well known proofs for this asser
ton. Saliva, owing to its soothing
effect, improves the voice. Vinegar
on the contrary, has quite a contrary
effect. The harshest voices have
among men, the cider drinkers, and
among women, the pear eaters. Thert
are, on the other hand, some spices
that affect the voice favorably. Thus
sweet oranges are favorable, and I'M
fermented lemon juice mixed with wa
ter Is excellent for the voice. What.
however, should be avoided In all
foods is pepper and, for the same rea-
son, also all excessively spiced sauces
and irritating pastries. Sugar often
causes inflammable irritation of the
palate and a tagging of the vocal
cords. Sugared dishes, creams, COM
potes, ETC., must as much as possible
be avoided by persons who have to
use often and much their organs Of
speech.

gether under the glow of the soft
lights of the hotel where they had
been taking tea. Geraldine had just
taken from her purse a check that she
passed across the table for jules in
spection. 1t was for an amount in
three figures that made jules eyes
open wide in wonder when she read
the signature.
"How could you accept that from
anyone who is not your husband or
brother or father, Geraldine?" she said,
reprovingly. This Mr.. Johnson is
only a friend of your husband
thought. l didn't know married girls
ever accepted presents like that" So
convinced was Julie of Geraldine's in
ability to do anything that was not up
that curiosity and surprise played a
more prominent part in her manner
than real reproval.
"Oh, well, Julie, it's this way" Ger
aldine said, with carelessness, tossing
the check back into her handbag. you
know, Bob used to have a much larger
income, and he gave me everything l
wanted. 1t wasn't my fault that he
lost his money, and he realizes that
perfectly. Sometime he'll have more
after he's been working at this new
deal for a few more years; but in the
meantime I'm young and Bob is sure
that l really care a lot for him. He
can't take me out and get me things
that he useG to, and he is not so mar
row as to object to having other men
IN perfectly nice way do the little
things that he can't afford"
But are you going to show him the
check?" queried Julie, still amazed

we've known Mr.. Judson for long
time-well, l had tea with him yester-
day, and you know how cold it was
He said I ought to have a heavier
coat, and l said didn't have one, SO
he slipped out his check book and
when no one was looking wrote this
out. He tucked it into my purse when
he handed me into the taxi, of
course"
"And you didn't send the check
back?"

for that. 1t isn't as if he had wife,

And Bob-though l haven't told him
about the coat-told me he didn't in
the least mind my having tea with Mr..
Judson. He said he didn't In the least
mind having him do nice things for
me. He knows as we'll as l do that
a girl can't poke at him all the time.
Husbands nowadays are so much
broader than they used to be. Your
Jack would be just the same if he lost
his money. Do you imagine that you'd
always walk just because he couldn't
pay your taxi fares? Another friend
of Bobs sends me matinee tickets oc-
casionally. Bob knows it, of course"
1T must be very interesting" admit
ted Julie, rising and putting on her
gloves. "As long as Bob really knows
that it's perfectly all right Do let me
know about the fur coat. Do You
really think I'd do that If Jack were
ipoor?"
Tucked warmly away in her limou-
sine, after having taken Geraldine to
her small apartment, Julie pondered
over her friends confession. She was
quite sure that Geraldine was right

she, too, would 60 to tea with other
men If Jack could no longer afford to
"give her good time" She wasn't so
sure about the fur coat. Perhaps she
could have enough coats on hand when
the crash came so that that wouldn't
be necessary. Then she thought of the
quiet dinner that she and Jack were to
spend together, and the quiet evening
afterward and the many, many quiet
evenings that would follow. 1t SEEM

Importance of Good Roads.

Roads rule the world-not kings nor
congresses, nor courts nor constables,
not ships nor soldiers. The road is
the only royal line in a democracy, the
only legislature that never changes,
the only court that never sleeps, the
only army that never quits, the first

Is made, the road simply pushes on its

hand, the tendency toward simple fin

any color scheme, and is particularly
appropriate for the simple style Of
architecture in vogue in many homes.
Since the rugs for the floors and the
hangings-such as window curtains,
draperies at the doors, etc.-form so
important part of the finish of every
home today, care must be taken in
their choice and arrangement. The
color principles which apply to walls
and woodwork are to be applied to-
floor coverings and hangings. In every
case they must be in close harmony
with the wall decorations. So

The Harvest Moon.

The circumstance which has made
the full moon noticeable and has given
rise to Its name, at or near the au-
tumnal equinox, September 20, Is the
fact that for several evenings the
moon rises at about the same hour and
is Of unusual brilliancy, thus favoring
the farmers work during the harvest.
At this time the moon Is moving over
that part of It's orbit where the angle
with the ecliptic is very slight, and the

tive positions that the moon Is full

more formal apartments of special In
terest to men, the stronger, richer col
ors-dark reds, green's, blues and
browns-have been used.
The amount of light and the size
of the room are important factors in
determining the color of the wall and
woodwork. The greater the light, the
darker the color that may be used
though very dark colors should always
be avoided. Warm colors, including
cream, buff, tan, golden brown, reddish
brown, ETC., are best for rooms where
the light Is from the north, while
rooms with a southerly exposure are
best In the cooler colors-grayish,
blush and greenish tones, cool tans,
neutral browns, etc.
Tinted Walls for Small Rooms.
Good taste, as well as reason, sug-
gests that for the smaller rooms so
common In our modern building, plain,
light-tinted walls are best. The large
figured wall papers are wrong for such
house. A room with low ceiling
should have the wall color to the cor
ner. Rooms with high ceilings may
have the drop ceiling"

over to the testimony of those who be-
lieved. the plant should be closed. DR..
Joseph B. Sears. sanitary inspector
for the Health Board, declared the
plant was becoming more and more a
nuisance owing to the fact that the
company, which is now in the hands of
q receiver, cannot replace its worn out
out machinery.
Part Of the fault at the plant, the
witness said, was due to delay in IN
loading barges which carry garbage
from Manhattan. 1t was pointed out
that while the regulations OF the Board
of Health require that no barge shall
be moored Mt the plant for more than
twenty-four hours, all barges required
several days to unload, one remaining
at the dock, before discharging its
cargo, for twenty-one days.

Wednesday next. when, it is expected. a
plan for abolishing the nuisance viii
be offered the grand jury.
