MAKING MEATLESS
DAYS Permanent.

In the meatless menu there is fer
tile field for developing new and nour-
ishing dishes, according to e. H. Niles,
writing in the Hotel Gazette, who be-
lieves that the present shortage of
meat and fats will not end with the
coming Of peace, but may grow more
acute and continue for five or six
years, thus making it worth while to
develop menus of grain, vegetables
and fish on a more or less permanent
basis. Meat can be replaced by cereals
and other protein foods, or may be
served In very small portions as a fla
vOring for other food. In making up
meatleSs menus this author finds our
American Creole and southern cuisine
a broad field for investigation.

COLUMBUS, MISS.

Columbus, Miss. September 7,-(Spe- cial 1.-Two Mississippi congressman are to be nominated in the second dem ocratic primary next Tuesday one in the First district, where Hon. E. S. Candler of Corinth the incumbent, and contestants. an done in the Sixth dis trict, where the opposing candidates are Gov Theodore G. Bilbo and Judge Paul Johnson, and although Columbus is in the First district politicians here are evincing as much interest in the contest in the Sixth district as they are in the local race.
 Bilbo has lost caste in Lowndes coun- ty, as he has in other sections of the state, and many local citizens who SUD- ported him when he ran for governor three years ago are now anxious to see him defeated. Bilbo is recognized as a member of the Vardeman clan, having first come into prominence in the famous legislative caucus of 1910, when he claimed that he was offered bribe to vote against the White Chief, and the following year made a successful race for lieutenant governor as the avowed champion of the present junior senator. Mississippians have already declared by their votes that they are through with Vardaman, and it is pre- dicted that in Tuesdays contest Bilbo will also be relegated to private life. It seems, to be generally conceded that Congressman Candler will be the
 victor in the race in this district, as

 It is true that as a matter of profes-
 sional discretion, I made it a rule never
 to relate to anyone anything that I had heard from the Kaiser, because I real ized that # it ever got back to him that
 was repeating what he had told me
 our friendship would not last very long Undoubtedly my policy in that respect was responsible for the wide range Of subjects which the Kaiser from time 10

 an enemy 70 America! I could not help feeling that what I knew of this mon arch who Lad arrayed himself against the whole world ought, without ques : tion, to he conveyed to those who were guiding the destinies of my country in
 the great conflict which will decide whether aCtoeracy or democracy shall control tie world,
 I felt that I knew the Kaiser better perhaps tran any other iiving American Certainly had come in contact with him
 more often and more intimately than alsy other American since the war had started and | doubted whether he had ever uu burdehed himself as freely to any for eigner as he had to me
 One memorable interview l had had with him influenced me perhaps more than any other single factor to hasten the settlement of my European affairs and return nolEe.
 It was in the fall of 1916. The Kaiser had come to sne for professional atten tion, and after my work was completed he renamed to discuss some of the as- poets of the war. Perhaps the fact that
 had just returned from visit Ito
 America make him more than usually
 eager for a chat with me, We had discussed various phases of the war, when the Kaiser changed the subject abruptly with the question: SDavis. what's the matter with your coHntry?
 Tn what respect. your maJesty?" I asked
 Why is it that your country is so un- fair to Germany? Why do you persist in supplying munitions and money 10 the allies? Why doesn't your President treat the European warning nations the same as he treated Mexico by putin 2
 an embargo on munitions and letting us fight this thing out ourselves? You do not shlp munitions to us, why do you ship them to the other side?H QUESTION FOR QUESTION eAt N'NSAi eSA ulS NilH the Kaiser that l did not hesitate to answer his question with another

 He nad worked himself up to de-
 gree of indignation which I had seen him display only on two or three pre-. vious occasions, and I must confess l was reluctan. to start a fresh outburst by answering his arguments. His eyes. usually soft and kindly, flashed fire as he advanced towards me and slowly and incisively declared: Davis. America ' must x be punished for - her = actions!'

Since the United States severed diplomatic relations with Germany he has consistently sup ported the administration war policy, and this has increased his popularity among his constituents, who admire President Wilson and who believe that his course should be indorsed by en- thusiastic cooperation on the part of

Another influential patient of mine whom I sought out at this time was ex-Ambassador Won Sturm. Although he was now retired from official life, he had formerly been a powerful figure in German state circles and still kept more or less in touch with the new court chamberlain and others in high office His nephew was under secretary of foreign affairs

 That doctor, will depend entirely upon how America treats our subjects he replied. somewhat more coldly than I mad expected of him. If America in- terms Germans, of course, we shall un- doubtedly treat Americans the same way. and you could hardly expect any special consideration, although, if you VIII write a letter to the court cham berlain, who is a personal friend of mine, l shall see that he gets it.'
 But. excellenz," replied, there is a treaty between Germany and America, I understand, which gives the subjects or citizens of one country who happen to be sojourning in the other when war is declared nine months within which to close up their affairs and leave. Would not that protect me?'
 MUST AWAIT DEVELOPMENTS
 "Of course Noctor," he answered, NGermany will respect the treaty if America does, and then there will be no trouble It seems to me you must await developments, and in the meantime you have no cause for worry
 Suppose some of your subjects in America should act up and start blow ing up bridges or munition factories and should be lynched, which they prob ably would be-" I suggested, what would Germany's course be then?''
 What Germany would do then, doc tor," he replied, slowly and thoughtful ly, as though such contingency had never occurred to him before really, doctor, I don't know what we would do.'
 This somewhat unsatisfactory interview with Won Strum might have worried me more, perhaps, had it not been for a visit I received only a day or two later from Prince Won Pless. one of the Kais- CTS closest friends and advisers, who called on me professionally. For year and half the Kaiser had had his great army headquarters at the princes palace at Pless, in southeastern Germany and I knew that he enjoyed his monarch s confidence.
 When I asked him regarding the pos sible internment of Americans, he as- sured me that, come what might l and my family had not the slightest reason for alarm.
