older members of the family will prob
ably like mullins or griddle cakes with
q cupful of coffee. Most delicious,
fluffy corn flour cakes can be made
by using one beaten egg, half-tea-
spoonful of salt q cupful Of sour milk |;
the richer the better, and half-tea-
spoonful of soda; stir in enough corn
flour to make it of the consistency
liked for cakes. The thinner they will
cook and turn well the more delicate
is the texture of the cake. Serve
these with maple strip or corn sirup
and the family will ask for them again
and again.
Fried cornmeal mush is another
good and substantial breakfast dish
(which will stay by" until another
meal. Bits of meat, chopped dried
fruit like dates and figs or nuts, are
all good to add to it and increase the
food value of the dish.
Vegetables, because of their bulk,
are most necessary and should form
a large part of the food of the entire
family after it is out of the milk stage.
Vegetables are rich in mineral salts
and vegetable acids as well as the
wonderful and little known, growth
determinants. IAN onion a day keeps

are an ounce overweight would cut
out one meal a day or eat very lightly
at luncheon and not gormandize at
dinner, they would feel better, be hap
pier and able to accomplish more
work and at the same time be doing
something to help win the war by con-
serving food. Children should not be
stinted, as they need food for growth
but the average man or woman might
easily cut down the food from one
quarter to half and gain in physical
as we'll as mental power by so doing.

July Merchandising
Activities at Peak
Record Purchases Shown by
Report of Credit Clear
ing House

Splendid conditions, with purchases
at new high record, indebtedness low
and payments running high, are re-
flected in the monthly comparison of
merchandising activities compiled bv
the research department of the Credit
Clearing House. Taking the country
as whole, July purchases were 3 per
cent larger than in June and / per
cent better than in July, 1918. In
debtedness showed a drop of l per cent
for the month and also that much de.
crease compared with July year ago,
while payment activities were l per
cent lower than in June, but equal to
those of July, 1918. Compared with
July. 1916, purchases last month wer.
l per cent better, Indebtedness 5 per
cent less and payments per cent
greater. The comparison is based up
on more than 100000 actual transac-
tions, involving more than $4,000 900.
Sales last month were heavy in spite
of the high price of merchandise,
though, according to the report, there
has developed in the last ten DAYS a
slight hesitancy on the part of buyers
to lay in speciality stocks in any great
quantities, indicating that they prefer
to recorder if the demand calls for it.

Orders for export have been strong ana
one dealer reported yesterday placing
a shipment for more than 10000 tons
of acid phosphate.
Large sales of nitrate of soda were
reported because the price has declined
while the prices Of other fertilizers
have advanced. Dealers state shat thi.
is due to the fact that the price pei
unit of ammonia is lower than that OF
all other fertilizer materials.

HOTEL WORKERS ON STRIKE
SITUATION IN LONDON BECOMING
MORE SERIOUS.
British Cabinet Meets, but is Said to
Be Opposed to Any inter-
vention.

London, Feb. 4.-The British cabi-
net held session to discuss the labor
situation. 1t is said, however, that
the government is still against any
Intervention.
The seriousness Of the strike situa-
ton in London was further increased
when the hotel workers at a meeting
decided to go on strike. About 5000
men and women are involved.
The parliamentary committee of the
Trades Union congress decided to
summon a special meeting to consider
tne whole question of industrial un-
rest.
The corporation of the city of Bel
fast asked the lord mayor to inter
vene in the strike.
The central part Of London present
ed an unusual spectacle. City work
ers were walking in crowds over the
bridges and along the thoroughfares
which connect central London with
the suburbs. There was great con-
gestion at all terminals Of tram car
and omnibus lines.
The discomfort of having to walk
was increased by the slippery condi-
ton of roads and sidewalks which, in
the outlying districts, were covered
with snow.

Commissioner Heck at Constantinople
reported to the State department the

Paris, Feb. 4.-President Wilson has
the League of Nations program be-
fore the end Of the week.
Refreshed by a day of complete rest,
the president, following an address on
the subject of the league before the
chamber of deputies, was to confer
with the special committee which is
working on details of the leagues out
line
President Wilson met with the peace
bureau. The Balkan situation was dis
cussed with particular reference to
Greece's political and territorial
claims. Premier Elentherios Venizelos
of Greece, was the principal speaker.
Reports to Congress Planned.
The president had under considera-
ton plans for reporting progress of
the peace conference regularly to con-
gress in the future. Reports from the
United States indicate there is need of
explaining the details of various prob
lens being worked out, as misunder-
standing is obvious. The tone of con-
gressional debates is liable to result in
misrepresentation by the other dele
gates here.
When President Wilson arrives in
the United States three weeks hence
he is expected to sail Feb. 14-he ex-
poets sufficient progress. to have been
made for a comprehensive report to
congress.
Colonel E. M. House is recovering
rapidly and is expected to take full
part in the peace work this week.
Pichon Explains Russ Situation.
The special committees to which de-
tails of the peace settlement are re-
ferred are doing their work efficiently
and rapidly, according to French For
eign Minister Stephen Pichon.
Pichon said the position of the Allied
troops on the Archangel front is not
desperate. He declared that while the
bolsheviki are strengthening their
army in that region, they are being de.
feated in other parts of the country,
and that this condition must soon have
an effect on the northern front.
'"The greatest hold of the bolsheviki
on the people is that the people are led
to believe if they are beaten their land
will be taken from them" said PichOn
eff we could show the people that their
land would remain in their hands,
three-fourths of Russia would be
against the bolsheviki."
