cook till clear. Add juice two lemons
and one and one-half cups sugar. Beat
for some time with egg whip. Add

DISCOVERIES
To Prevent clothes props from slip.
ping when heavy things are put on
the clothesline, as they are apt to do,
knock big nail in the bottom of
the props. These you can dig into
the ground and they are sure to hold.
Just now being housekeeping time,
there will be lots Of heavy things TO
put on the line.
Use Common court or sticking plas-
ter for your salt and pepper shakers
and do away with corks. You'll find
this much more convenient.
The .Drudgery of ironing may be
greatly mitigated by the use of a pad
made at home and which takes the
place Of an ironing board. Use a
piece of hairfelt folded bed quilt
would do) 30x40 inches, and make a
canvas cover to fit it snugly. This
pad can be used on the kitchen table
or sink board and all of the ironing
can be done on it. On this large
surface pieces can be ironed much
more quickly and it does away with
handling an ironing board. 1t can be
rolled up and takes very little room
when not in use.

another fellow he gets angry. 1t is
right for him to be SO jealous?
ANNA.
The man Is far too old for you. A
girl of eighteen should have youthful
companions. You are making a great
mistake in spending every evening
with him, because you need a greater
variety OF friendships. Besides this
you should have more sleep and time
alone.
Jealousy should not be considered
from the standpoint OF right and
wrong. 1t is an emotion which can
be controlled by reason and judg-
ment. The man lacks control Of his
feelings or he would not show his
jealousy Unless he is engaged to
you, he has no right to object to your
other friendships.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am young
man past twenty-one years old. There
is a girl in the country near us. We
were friends for about a year and
then moved away for twenty months.
! On my return our friendship was re-
newed for about two months. We
had no fuss or words, but we haven't
spoken since and have only seen each
other once since. / have said and
done nothing to lose her friendship
| and wish to regain it.

BETTER LIVING QUARTERS
FOR THE FARM WORK ER

The cost of production. and hence
the margin Of profit which the far
mer is able to enjoy, is materially af-
fected by the steadincss and efficiency
of the farm help. TO be "closc" in
making provisions for the comfort and
convenience Of the farm hands is
shortsightcd and costly. Orc of the
problems which manufacturers are
solving is how to reduce the turnover
in their labor forces. A similar prob
lem confrontS the farmer. Frequent

changes in help are costly and there
fore undesirable. Many farmer
could we'll afford to make sufficient in
vestment to provide attractive living
quarters for married helper and his
family. Such a hand, once secured and
CONF fortabiy settled, will be apt to stay
with his employer for period Of
years. The hiring of single men, as
is common in many parts of the coun-
try, while involving little or no out
lay compared with that involved in ac-
commodating married helper and
his family, may prove TO be less pro-
fitable in the long run. An article
taken fro mthe Department of Agri-
culture Yearbook for 1918, entitled
"Housing for the Worker on the
Farm" contains several plans and
other suggestions worth considera-
tion by the farmer interested in this
question.

BIG APPETITE FOR
SAFE INVESTMENTS
Between Twenty and Twenty
Five Million Bond Buyers
Take Billions IN Short Pc
RODS,

Pessimists who shake their heads
and join the chorus of II dunno" boys
at the prospect Of floating fifth Lib
erty Loan in April are administered a
Knockout by figures which have re-
Gently been compiled by officials of
the Treasury Department at Wash
fngton.
The figures give an idea Of just
how big an appetite for safe investment
this country has attained in its war
year. Some of the more striking of
the figures referred to follow:
A bond market which had less than
100000 customers two years ago had
at the close of 1918 between 10000.
900 and 100000 buyers. The army
of buyers absorbed 81 ,156, 565, $50
worth OF bonds in Liberty Bonds alone
In 1918.
In the two years Of the war-count-
ing the first and second Liberty
Loans which were noated in 1917
these bond buyers digested total OF
16,s74329,850 in Liberty bonds.
This healthy condition of the bond
market is explained, perhaps, by the
fact that the entire Indebtedness OF
the United States today amounts to
slightly less than per cent of the
estimated national wealth. The ma
tional debt amounts to only about
$170 per capita.
Some of the national debts are:
Great Britain, 44.3 per cent cent. Of
national wealth or 1850 per capita;
France, Alps per cent of national
wealth or $4,000 per capita; Austria
1886 per cent of national wealth OF
$242.90 per capita land Germany, 3S.1
per cent of national wealth or $505. 81
per capita.
These figures on Germany are Ell
elusive of the ninth war loan, accu
rate returns OF which never were had
and in the cases Of both Austria and
Germany no account is taken OF any
indemnities which those nations vii
have to pay.

WEST VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE

The Special Session of the West
Virginia Legislature at Charleston
seems to be well under way. Re-
vamped and clad in more modest
and tempered garb, the resolution
opposing League of Nations re-
bounded in the Senate from the Jul
dietary Committee of which Senator
Sanders is chairman and was passed
by a vote of II to 7. Two Republic
cans voted against the passage OF the
resolution, Senators Harmer and
Bloch. A similar resolution passed
the House of Delegates last week. !.
After amending the tax section OF
the Virginia Debt Bill, so that pay
ment will not necessarily be by the
direct tax, the House adjourned Sat
urday with an amendment pending,
proposing to submit the question OF
settlement to the people at the next
general election. The Senate passed
bill providing for the payment OF
the debt last week.
By vote of So to 81 the House OF
Delegates Friday passed the. measure
which will place a tax on the trans
portation of oil and gas within the
state which is expected to raise rev
enue of more than 100000. The
measure was introduced for the purr--
pose of providing funds which will
| help to pay off the Virginia debt OF
more than 100000 and interest.
Delegate Everett F. Moore, OF Mar
sail County, introduced bill IN the
House providing for tax of S25 to
| he ip,nosad on every unmarried male
inhabitant of the State who has at
tanned the age of 25 and is under 60
wears. The act is not to apply to
Unmarried men who may be support
ing dependent relative or relatives.
The tax would be listed by the Asses
sor and placed upon the tax books to
be collected as are other taxes.
The big fight of the session seems
to be over the police bill which is
still hanging in the balance.

rHE LEAGUE or NATIONS.

AS an independent journal, with
a raid up subscription-we condemn
the narrow-minded and selfish action
OF the Republican majority of our
State Legislatures, on its vote against
til League of Nations. But as
party newspaper-and we must be
partisan or change our name and
Lose few of our paid up subscribers
we rejoice over the vote, as we be-
heve it means the return of the DEM
ratio party to power, with its wise
la vs., good government and progress
sive ideals. We believe it means a
solid party representation to the next
Congress from West Virginia.
That even George NJ. Bowers will
have to walk the plank and that the
apple crop and vote of Berkeley
County or the fish from the Opequon
Creek will not save him.
We make this statement notwith-
standing the fact that we rather like
Mr.. Bowers and Notwithstanding the
fact that our esteemed contempt
raries, the wise and willy editor of
the Advocate and the well groomed
and gifted editor of the Register,
thought it good politics and good
patriotism not to put anyone in oppo-
sition to Mr.. Bowers.
The Spirit however stood pat, as
the Spirit always does.
Great forces will contribute to
this end, namely: men of scientific
attachments, who believe in the
growth and development of all things
students and believers in the evolu-
tionary theory of Democratic govern
ments; men who believe in the
brotherhood of man, and the coming
of the Kingdom; pioneers in womens
work and missions, the women who
vote and the women, who do not vote
In fact everybody except those who
are trying to hold up Senator Elkins
hands and keep him in the promised
land.
What one sided fight we will have
nJefferson county-with our con
temporaries in line-with the ole
guard on duty, and with the Shenan.
doah Junction board on the job.
We are eager for the fight, an6
the Spirit as usual will lead.
