RESIDENTS OF CORFU
WOULD BE INHOSPITABLE
If Former German Emperor Should Make
an Effort to Spend the Remainder
of His Days on That Island.

Corfu, Jan. 20 Correspondence of the
Associated Press. If William Hohen-
zollern, the former German emperor,
should try to spend the remnant Of his
career on the Island of Corfu, as some
recent reports indicated, he would not be
received by the natives with any great
show of hospitality or cordiality The
villa here which he last occupied in the
summer of 1914 and which he owned, is
now used as a military hospital and
floats the French flag. Even the espe-
cially built dock on which he was accus-
toned to land il now used for military
purposes.
The Greek and Serbian population,
many of whom are refugees, realize well
the misery and suffering that Hohenzol-
lern caused the world and are in no mood
to receive him even as temporary visitor.
"Achillion palace" his villa, stands
high up on the rocky coast of Corfu amid
a wealth of cypress trees, and oyerlooks
the picturesque Ionian sea. The snow
capped mountains of Albania are only a
short distance away. The villa has been
occupied lately by number of disabled
allied soldiers, including an American
sailor from Brooklyn. When the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent visited it the
other day the funeral of United States
naval officer, Ensign Young of Detroit,
Mich, who died of pneumonia contracted
while on duty, was being held just out
side the villa gates and the simple cas-
ket, draped with the Stars and Stripes,
was being lowered in its resting place on
the smlit side of the sloping mountain,

BOLSHEVISTS
HALT ADVANCE
Are Now at the Polish From
tier-Germans Delay the
Evacuation of Poland
GREAT RANSOMS ARE
BEING DEMANDED
Many Women in Russia Are
Committing Suicide to
Escape Outrage

Warsaw, Saturday, Jan. Is Thy the
Associated Press). - Bolshevist troops
have Stacked their advance at the Polish
frontier. The Germans are delaying their
evacuation of Grodno for several days,
although General Falkenhayn has retired
to Suwalki and General Hoffman has
gone to Koenigsberg
Polish leaders allege that Germans are
selling arms to the bolshevists under the
pretense of aiding the Society for pro.
visioning Ukraine" In Lithuania and
Ukraine, the bolshevists are issuing proc
lamations that they have come to re-
store order. Dispatches state, however,
that bolsheyist soldiers have been seen
carrying banners inscribed with the
words Long Live the Red Terror" and
Death to Non Workers"
Men have been arrested at Wilma and
other places and have been released later,
it Is said, on payments of sums ranging
from fifty to fifty thousand rubles, the
size of the ransom being in proportion
to the terror of the victim and his pow
err to pay The bolshevists are especially
bitter against the Poles, it being report
ed that the declaration of a holy war
against Poland by the Moscow govern
ment makes it fright and duty of every
bolshevist to kill the Poles as enemies
of mankind" Fewer houses are burned
than formerly, but it is charged that
where houses are spared their inmates
are slain.
Miss Shebeko sister of a member of
the imperial council, succeeded in escap-
ing from Mohiley and has reached War
saw. She says that she and two aged
aunts were driven from their home,
which was turned over to peasants. They
were allowed one small room from which
the lock of the door had been removed.
A few bits of furniture were given them,
she says, with the admonition: You
must understand that this belongs to the
nation" They considered themselves for
tunate, as many of their neighbors were
massaered, she declared. Two brothers
living in Serdowski were tortured to
death and their wives and little chill
dren were mutilated, according to her
story.
The officer of the Polish legation who
went to visit SerdoWskl is alleged 10
have been murdered because he wore
epaulets, which are forbidden by the boil
shevists Miss Shebeko says that this
murder aroused the indignation of GER
tain Jewish members of the local SO.
Wet. She says the sentence was finally
approved when it was learned that the
officer knew how to read and write. One
Of the speakers at the hearing was re-
ported to have declared: "There will be
perfect equity in the world only when
nobody knows how to read and write"
Miss Shebeko says that many we'll
bred women in Russia have committed
suicide through fear of outrage. Many
of those escaping from the country are
disguised in old clothes and hide the
marks of refinement on their hands and
faces with dirt.

century are obsolete. Women who have

economies are reconstructing the cul-
mary art and simplifying It. They are
making use of what was formerly vast
ed, especially in the way Of fats; they
are learning the value of substitutes, and
that good results can be attained with
less lavishness. These are some of the
economic benefits resultant from war
needs.-Detroit Free Press.

STRANDED % DAYS.
Crew of Gloucester Fishing Schooner Is
Brought Home.

Gloucester, Mass, Jan. lS.-Captsin
Stewart Stone and eight members Of the
crew of the fishing schooner Arizona, who
were rescued at Fortesu bay, Labrador,
by the United States naval patrol boat
Tallapoosa after the schooner had been
crushed in the ice, reached their home
here to-day. For % days they were
stranded in the little coast settlement of
barely 20 inhabitants, who were them
selves short of provisions. Snow lay
waist deep all about the settlement and
on the warmest day during their stay
the mercury registered eight degrees be-
low zero.
The Tallapoosa not only left guam
tity Of supplies at the settlement but
also opened up channel through the ice
and enabled the regular supply boat to
reach there, thus removing any danger
of starvation for the natives.

Making a Little Heat Go a Long Way.
Economists warn US that even when
the war is over it will be long time be-
fore prices touch the level again which
we were used to before 1914. Common
sense also tells us the same thing. How
can there be such tremendous destruction
without the whole world having to pay
for it? Think of the demand on coal
alone to make the steel and the NUM-
tions and the ships, to say nothing Of the
transportation problems. So even If
there is no coal shortage such as there
was last winter, it is up to every one Of
us not TO waste an ounce OF these pree-
ious black diamonds. Ii we take thought
we can do our cooking with less fire than
we ordinarily use. Much depends upon
the utensils in which the cooking is done
What we need is high heat efficiency;
that is, a substance which heats quickly
and readily. Then we need a power to
retain that heat so that the contents 81
the vessel can continue to cook after di-
rect heat is withdrawn, In enameled
ware we have these two essential quail
ifcations, The foundation of the ware
is steel. That gives it its heat efficiency;
the porcelain. like surface holds that heat
and conserves all the heat given out by
the coal so that none is wasted. A little
observation will soon teach housewife
how much more cooking she can do with
little fire by choosing her kitchen
equipment scientifically than she would
believe.

Plenty of Milk Each Day.

Two general maxims should be learned
by the people of the United States
Every adult should have at least a third
of quart of milk each day." and mo
family of five should buy any meat until
it has bought three quarts of milk
One reason for urging the use of much
milk, is that it is our best source of Ger
tain mineral salts, notably lime, which
the body needs. 1t is so easy to use milk
in cooking that one scarcely needs these
reminders of different ways from the
United States food administration.

me Peconstructed Cook Book.

The average housekeeper, familiar with
culinary processes before the war, finds
her education very much at fault under
the present deprivations and the restric-
tions she is expected to observe, and does
observe to the extent of her ability. She
does not complain or grumbe, but ad'
mits that she is "perplexed.' A profess
sional cook was discovered in tears by
the mistress. She was neither i'll nor
dissatisfied with her place; her trouble
was that nothing she made tasted like
it ort to-
The cook book of the sos is as old
fashioned in its recipes as the tribula
tions of Alonzo and Melissa in fiction
The present generation-when it bears
them in mind at all-has regarded its
foremothers as models of all the eco
nomcaI virtues. Did they not make
their own soap, their own carpets, and
run" their own candles? Didn't they
dry apples, have pie for breakfast, and
pride themselves on never being without
cake in the house?
The recipes they religiously followed
in their cooking make the housekeeper

shortening and making one egg do the

Washington, D. c., Jan 20.--Italy,

months of the war, was the worst suffer,

Representatives of the Italian govern

of this quantity would have to be i'm
