THIS GIRL is "BROKE" @@
~ AND IS WORRYING IN WASHINGTON BECAUSE
# #s>s H. SHE NEEDS A TICKET HOME

into Mabel's income, but she cheered
herself with the thought that next
month" she would be less extrava-
CANT.
Money Is Gone,
Mabel Is Worried.
Then next month" she had the
"flu!" Her landlady was good to her,
but Mabel had to have a doctor, and
medicines, and the doctor insisted
that she must buy warmer under
clothes.
So now that the armstice is signed,
although Mabel rejoiceI as much as
anybody to learn that the fighting
was over and victory was ours, she is
worried, really honestly worried,
about how she is to get back to Kan
sas if she is suddenly told that she
doesn't need to do any more filing.
Her doctor bill took just about the
last Of Mabel's savings.
If Mabel had an indulgent papa to
Telegraph her a ticket home, or a de-
voted knight in big motor car to
whisk her off to happiness by way Of
the altar, things would be different.
But Mabel says those things exist
only in story books
I tried to cheer her up. but what
could l do? In spite OF all l said,
Mabel is worried, really worried, about
that ticket to Kansas.

W OANS ~ W
Mabel Somervillye told me yester-
day that she was broke, and soon to
be out of job, since the war was over
and the departments were dismissing
many clerks.
Mabel came to Washington last
August from Kansas. She came
principally because she read the bulle-
tins in her home town postoffice, say
ing Uncle Sam needed help in winning
the war. Mabel was patriotic; she
yearned to help. =
Mabel's Expenses
Eat Up Income
Camel came. She passed the civil
service examination, and got good
rating. When she was put to work at
filing, merely putting away papers,
she thought there must be some mis-
take, for this work called for no
knowledge Of spelling, geography or
arithmetic, all Of which subjects fig
ured largely in her examination"
But she worked steadily, nevertheless,
thinking every day she would be
transferred to some more interesting
exacting task.
But Mabel is still filing. She has
come to believe that however long
she may remain in Washington, she
will still bo filing. She speculates a
good deal as to why the examination
in geography and arithmetic, because
she has to speculate about something,
to keep her mind occupied. If you've
ever done filing-Mabel's kind Of fill
ing-you will understand that it does
not hold your breathless interest.
Mabel receives $100 a month. At
first she thought that was a great
deal of money. But she found she had
to pay $40 for a room, on the third
floor, with another girl to share it
with her; and her board cost $50
more, for breakfast and dinner, that is
not counting lunch Lunches averag-
ed 40 cents a day, and laundry $3.50
q week This made her expenses
about $6S a month for mere living ne
cesslties, outside Of clothes. She had
to have q new winter coat, and some
shoes, which took $50 from her scan
ty surplus, although even then the
coat was not nearly as good one as
Mabel had been used to wearing in
Kansas. s.
She went to the theater once in
while, and out to dinner at a restau-
rant occasionally, and for couple OF
"rubber-neck' wagon rides, to see the
city. Mabel is young, you see, and
she had never been in a big city be-
fore, and besides, she had come to
the capital trimming with patriotism
and the desire to sec and reverence
every historical spot.
These extras made great inroads

EFFICIENT HOUSEKEEPING
BY Henrietta Grnuel.
WINTER CHOW-CHOW.

A different relish is needed in winter
than in summer. Now we want something
rich, hot and spicy; the plain sweet or
sour pickle still plcascs us, but it is not
sufficient.
II YOU have cucumber pickles in brine
or vinegar, or picked green tomatoes, or
some extra jars of tomatoes, you can
make fresh relish from them that Will
be change and make a plain dinner seem
especially nice.
For. chow-chow slice the large pickles
and cover with mustard dressing. Add
small silver skin onions that have been
scalded until tender, and a little grated
horscradish.
Mustard Dressing for Chow-Chow: To
each quart of sliced or chopped pickles or
green tomatoes, use one glass of made
mustard, one-half cup of white or brown
sugar and one cup of cold vinegar. Pour
this over the pickles and they will be
ready to use IN "a hours.
For winter picalilli chop picked green
tomatoes, add minced or diced onion,
a few red peppers free from seeds and
cut in stripsl, and celery and mustard
seed We always roll the mustard seed, rs
they flavor the mixture better when
broken and mix in more smoothly. Heat
this in vinegar taken from the pickles, or
in fresh spiced, sweetened vinegar, and
put in little bottles while it is hot. The
mixture will keep without sealing, but it
should be sealed to keepin the spicy flavor.
A hot, spicy vinegar to use on fresh
salads is always liked and can be
made from the vinegar from pickles; but
white vinegar makes better looking
dressing in the cruct. Crate a good-sizcd
root of fresh horseradish, add teaspoon
of cayenne pepper, two teaspoons of salt,
and one teaspoon OF sugar, if the vinegar
has not been sweetened. Heat the mix

SENSATIONAL CASE
 IN LIBEL CHARGES

LONDON. June 5.-At the reopen ing of the Noel Billing, on charge of Libel preferred by Miss Maud Allan and J. T. Grein, manager of the Independent theater today, Jus tice Darling ruled that it was mpOs- sible to allow any individual to come forward to refute statements made by the witnesses which really were rele- want to the issue before the court. Mrs. George Keppel, who was present, ac- cording to her counsel, to deny on oath that she had been in Holland since the outbreak of the war or had seen Dr. Richard Von Kuehlmann, the German foreign minister, and other German statesmen, therefore left the court
 An attorney, on behalf of the war cffice, asked permission to submit the military history and medical records of Captain Harild Sherwin Spencer, who gave startling testimony when eX- these records would show the true character of that witness" The judge disallowed this. as the doctors who signed the certificates are out of the country.
 Lord Alfred Douglas, who said he regretted having been associated with Oscar Wilde when the latter wrote "Salome," was the next witness. He said he considered the stage direction of Wilde's SalOme as objectionable and disgusting. He said the fact that such a play was produced and special prominence had been given to the name of the author was likely to ap- peal strongly to the people. Asked whether he regretted having met Wilde, Lord Alfred replied:
 "I do to my most intense honor Wilde had adiabolical influence on peo pie. He was the greatest force for evil that has appeared in Europe in the last three hundred years"
 An attempt by the attorney for the prosecution to read letters which had passed between Lord Alfred Douglas and Oscar Wilde and to ask some di- rect questions of Lord Alfred as to his association with Wilde, caused angry scenes in the court room. Justice Darling would not allow the letters to be read and ruled out the questions with the remark: We are not trying Lord Alfred Douglas"
 Lord Alfred at this turned on the judge with the. remark that he was not there to be brow beaten by the court and that he would answer any questions he liked.
