THE CASE OF AUSTRIA

Nearly five years ago, when 1t be-
Jeanne to be realized that the Central
Powers of Europe were about to
precipitate a world war, and that
Austria would be forced to play a
conspicuous part, attention was di-
rected more closely than ever to the
history of the dual monarchy.
It was alleged that while Austria
Hungary had for many years en-
gagged but little in actual
warfare, the Hapsburgs almost in
variably benefited among others. 1t
was so after the Balkan States
fought Turkey, and, acting upon
former principles, the late Emperor
Francis Joseph appropriated Bosnia
and Herzegovina, which act Of bri-
gandage brought on the great Eu-
ropean struggle.
Austria-Hungary was polyglott
empire. Many different languages
are spoken by peoples forced to live
under Austrian rule. The hope was
often expressed that the time would
CONS when the vassals would be
given an opportunity to work out
their own determination The en-
pire had long stood as house OF
cards, and the structure tunbled
after the armistice had been signed.
Attention is directed to the fact
that Austria Hungary will be the
next of the Teuton allies to go into
the prisoners box for sentence. The
peace problem in her case is simple.
The Dual Monarchy pays the penal
ty of it's crimes by extinction. Not
only is the Hapsburg dynasty abol-
ished, but the historic empire to
which it furnished band of union
is torn to bits.
The settlement with the Dual
Monarchy will be essentially polit-
ical and military settlement. A once
great empire is dismcmbered. Italy
takes the lions share of the spells.
This is retribution more sweep
ing and melodramatic than that
which the Allies have imposed on
Germany. It may hurt less, for its
pangs are sooner over. 1t is po-
litical rather than personal. Its
political character is emphasized by
the lack of any provision for bring
ing the Emperor Karl to trial. He
inherited the war, and prosecuted it
reluctantly, But even if the aged
Franz Josef had survived the Allies
would probably not have held him
to personal accountability. He was
a figurehead, whose confidence was
abused by the INSCRIPTIONS states.
men who surrounded and controlled
him. He didn't relish his predica-
ment. He is credited with saying in
his last days: There is no longer
anything heightened about war"

A PLEA FOR PIEPLANT.

: Almost eve1y garden has bed of
pieplant. These roots may be set
out early in the fail or in the spring.
Most families use pieplant for a
lit..',c While in the spring and then
1T is 1T to stand untouched the rest
of the year. This should not be when
there are so many good uses for it.
First quantity of it should be
canned for winter pies and sauce
when the stalks are young and tender
although this may he done just as
successfully in July.
Wash thoroughly and cut in cubes
or the length of tn ecan. Use steri-
liked jars and when full cover with
boiling water. Seal.
1t may also be canned using tho
cold water method. This consists in
filling sterilized cans with the fresl
fruit, cut in cubes, then pouring in
fresh cold water until every particulc
of air is excluded. The cans may
then be sealed with the assurance that
when opened the contents will be of
good flavor and we'll kept. For the
filling process some housewives set
the cans under the faucet allowing the
water to run in until it's own weight
expels all air bubbles, while others
prefer to submerge the can in pail
of water for short time. Which ever
method is used the main point is tC
have every crevice filled with water.
With no room for the tiniest air bub-
BILE, the fruit will keep perfectly.
After you have canned all you think
you will use, try mixing it with other
fruits which are scarce and expensive.
such as pineapple, strawberries an
cherries. One fourth to one-third a.
much pieplant combined with other
fruit can scarcely be detected and
makes tn, hieher priced fruits pr

together make good pies in winter.
There are various forms of jams
and marmalades made Of pieplant

played to-day over the failure SO far

Biz Robert s. Horne. Minister of La
Dor. met with the British War Cabinet

ton. He arranged to confer late to-day
with a deputation of mine workers. but
leaders on both sides agreed that It was
difficult to determine what should be
the next step toward settlement. The
newspapers in their editorials to-day
commented upon the danger to industry.
THE best thing for US to do" said
Herbert Smith, head of the Yorkshire
Miners Federation, is TO sit tight and
say nothing, then we will not be mis-
represented or misunderstood"
The proposed bakers strike is threat
ened to enforce the demands of the men
for a minimum wage of $40 a week, a
forty-four hour week and the abolition
of night work.
The master bakers refused to con-
slider these demands. they said, unless
the Government should allow a suffi-
