HONEY IN JELLIES.

In the making of jellies use one cup
of honey and one cup of sugar to ev-
cry pint of fruit.
1t is necessary to boil the jelly very
carefully, as the honey will have a
disagreeable taste If scorched.
Jellies made in this way are rich and
delicious and have excellent keeping
qualities.

serve" of the Provincial bank, the sum of 3,000,000 yen and gave as security all of the Chinese holdings in the Pen-hsi-hu Colliery and Mining Com pany. These 3,000,000 yen were re- quired to be deposited with the Muk- den branch of the Bank of Chosen, 9 Japanese concern, and it was agreed that for every S1,000,0O0 additional silver notes isued by the Provincial Bank, 100000 yen more should be deposited. In the event that the Chin- ese provincial authorities are unable to repay the loan at maturity, the Japanese gain control of valuable col lieries in South Manchuria.
 The advantage to the Japanese business interests lies in the fact that every local banknote held by them has it's face value guaranteed by the 3,OOO,OOO yen deposited for that pur- pose, whereas other nationals have no such guarantee.
 Specie redemption ceased on May 13. For several years Japan has in- sisted upon redemption of specie by Chinese banks in Manchuria at the $40,000 a month. In consequence the Chinese banks were in financial strats and had to look to Japan for relief. The immediate result of the suspen- sion was a depression of the local notes and an imitation of the Peiyang dollar to $1.75 in terms of minor coins, which is the highest point ever reached.
 Japanese under the agreement with China are able to indemnity them selves for any loss occurring from acceptance of small coin money or paper notes and are thus able to un- dersell their competitors. For $1.20 in small coins notes they can obtain a silver Mexican dollars which costs others $1.75. The Chinese authorities fix $1.20 as an arbitrary rate. The Japanese calculate that anything above the presents los to them, and they are at liberty to compensate themselves accordingly out of the B. 000,000 yen fund.
 A protest by American government officials against this discrimination brought an offer by the Governor Gen eral to make an exception in favor of specified persons and firms, granting the same privilege enjoyed by the Japanese; but the offer wasa refused since it was not available to all Am ericans doing business in Manchuria.

PORTS
 TO BE ENLARGED
 FOR WAR TRAFFIC
Will Be Utilized to Relieve Congestion at Eastern
 Coast Cities.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Port and harbor facilities along the Atlantic, the Gulf and the Pacific must be extended two or three fold to pro- vide for the maximum service of the American merchant marine, now in the making when once it is released for war traffic. Immediate expansion is necessary at many ports so that coal for New England war industries can be moved by water.
 These facts have been established in the preliminary stdy of pert con- ditions made by the recently created port and harbors facilities commis- sion of the shipping board, headed by Edward F. Carry. Present facilities are shown to be inadequate, and in time new ports may be created.
 New York harbor particularly is overtaxed, and some southern ports, especially Galveston, New Orleans, Jacksonville, and Charleston need ex- pansion. All southern ports, it is ex- pected, will be enlarged because signs of congestion are already in sight This condition results from heavy traffic having been diverted by the railroad from the overland routes north to southern ports either for shipment north or to the West Indies and South America.
 The commission besides it's plans for port expansion, will consider the diversion of imports and exports from northern to southern ports, particul- arly shipments to and from the mid dle west, which now add to the trou- bles of congested railways along the north Atlantic seaboard and in Penn sylvania and Ohio. Relief is planned by transit through southern ports to railways and waterways.

MYSTERIOUS WAR
 CRITIC JOFFRE AIDE

Paris, Aug. 11.-(Correspondence of
 The Associated Press.)-After a
 long period of anonymity made neces-
 sary because of his active connection
 with the army, Lieutenant Colonel
 Fabry, chief of staff to Marshall
 Joffre and his companion on the Mar shals visit to America, has come out under his own name in the new Paris
 daily, "Oui.' He will hereafter write
 the trenchant military criticisms un-
 der his own name rather than as
 "Bouchavesnes," whose identity has always puzzled the readers of "Oui" quite as much as the articles have pleased them.
 Lieutenant Colonel Fabry retires from the regular army in consequence
 of his many serious injuries while fiphting. He has become one of the principal editors of "Oui" with the direct, though it is said reluctant, per-
 mission of Marshal Joffre, who deep
 ly regrets having to part with his l faithful chief of staff.

 Discharged from the hospital, he amazed even his friends by expressing desire to continue on active service
 of some kind. Marshal Joffre called
 him in as chief of staff and the col- onel has been constantly with the
 "grand old man," "Papa" Joffre, ev-
 CT since. As "Bouchavesnes" he has achieved l a reputation as a military critic and
 has done much to build up the circu- lation of "Oui."
