PIKE CATCHES
 MESSAGE FROM
 ANDY CARNEGIE
Receiver Says It Was For Senator-Latter Asks
 For Interpreter.

New York, Sept. 4.---"40S North 16o Street at O. M. F O142 x. 6 x 5S May 30 1919 A low price on now"
 Never, in his most ardent advocacy of simplified spelling, had Andrew Carnegie in the flesh written so cryp- tie a message. But this spirit tip, through the occult powers of Charles A. Pike, has been transmitted by Pike Ito United States Senator Overman.
 When he isn't occulting Pike is an artist at No. 19 East 14th street He IS 20 years old. His studio was closed last night and he could not be found Ito divulge the processes by which he had come into possession of the spirit messag ge.
 However he acquired the message, Pike transmitted this letter to Sem .ator Overman al the latter's home at Salisbury, \. C.:
 T have jus. received a message from Andrew Carnegie.
 'I think it is for you. He gave me the name 'Sena' or 'Avaman.' But I think it is Overman, spelt wrong. Here is the message"
 Pike then inscribed the succession .of figures and letters. The letter con tinued:
 If you understand this. kindly let me know at once. Other messages of minor importance received"
 Senator Overman is a practical man, but he is taking no chances on losing a good tip. He has written to Pike that he does not understand the late steelman's spirit message, but asks him to send the others along, any way. He said if there were further messages for him from Mir. Carnegie, he would like to see them
 The Senator had only a casual &C., quaintance with MT. Carnegie.

Home Drying Of Fruits and
Vegetables,

This department has had re-
quest for an article on drying OF
wax beans. Since the principles OF
drying beans are the same as dry
ing any food, the article will be a
general one. The material is TAX
en- from a late government publica-
ton on home drying.
Methods of Drying.
For home drying satisfactory re-
suits are obtained by any one OF
three principal methods. These are:
/. Sun drying.
2. Drying by artificial heat.
;. Drying by air-blast. with
an electric fan).
Sun Drying.
Sun drying has the double ad-
vantage of requiring no expense for
fuel and of freedom from danger Of
overheating. The simplest form is
to spread the slices or pieces on
sheets of plain paper or lengths OF
muslin and expose them to the sun.
Muslin is to be preferred if there
is danger of sticking. Trays of wire
screening may be used. Sun dry
ing requires bright, hot days and a
breeze. Once or twice a day the
product should be turned or stirred
and the dry pieces taken out. The
drying product should be covered
with cheesecloth tackled to a frame
for protection from dust and flying
insects. If trays are rested on sup
ports placed in pans of water the
products will be protected from
crawling insects. Care must be TAX
en- to provide protection from rain,
dew and moths. During rain and
Just before sunset the products
should be taken indoors.
Drying BY Artificial Heat.
Drying by artificial heat is done
in the oven or on top of cook
stove or range, in trays suspended
over the stove or in a specially
constructed drier built at home or
purchased.
The simplest form of oven dry
ing is to place small quantities of
foodstuffs on plates in a slow oven.
To keep the heat from being too
great, leave the oven door partially
open. For oven use simple tray
may be made of galvanized wire

Home-Makers' Guild of
N. Y. Reports Success of
Novel Experiment.

Reports from the Home Makers
Guild of New York City, sent to the
United States Department of La
Dor, announce the success of a
novel experiment in standardizing
domestic service.
Patrons of the guild outline the
household tasks to be accomplished.
They enumerate members of the
family, tell how many rooms the
house or apartment contains, and
describe the character of the meals
to be cooked. The household work
er assigned to the special home is
paid on a fixed scale per hour, but
she received her money from the
guild and so has no financial deal
ings with her employer.
The trend of this sort of service
is toward trained specialists who
will gradually raise social as we'll
as industrial ideals of domestic en-
ployment. Men as we'll as women
are supplied by the guild and in
that way all heavy work is done by
those best fitted for it.
The cost of attendants that are
more or less professional is neces-
| sarily high, and for that reason the
guilds clientele must be limited to
the we'll to do. AS the plan is suit
able for large cities only, there must
be less costly solutions for the ever
present servant problem. And in
this Connection is emphasized the
fact that the elimination of the
word Servant" is one step toward
the enlistment of better class Of
workers and the gradual improve
ment Of conditions surrounding do.
