Cookies of Many Kinds.

Cookies delight children's palates,
and some of us never grow up when IT
comes to enjoying these delicious little
cakes. However, there are all sorts OF
cookies, from the simplest kind that
Young tots can eat with impunity TO
rich little cakes that are just the
things to serve with afternoon teas,
says the Boston Traveller.
The shape of cookies has a great APP
peal. All of us remember the JOY we
took in the gingerbread men that our
mothers used to bake for our special
delectation when we were children. No
other molasses cookies tasted so good
as those caricatures of men. The very
odditv of form and feature added to
our delight. Now that we are older we
still like the small cakes to delight
the eve as well as the palate. Grin
killed. edges, unique shapes, such as
hearts, halfmoons, triangles, etc, espe-
ciallv in miniature sizes, tempt US
more than regulation cookies, fiat,
round and substantial looking. This Is
well TO remember when we substitute
cookies for other tea cakes. If we make
the batter not quite so stiff and drop
them when served These drop cookies
rolling it out and shaping with a cookie
cutter, we give different aspect to
them when served. These dropcokes
arc cross between regular cookie
and cup cake.
Now that sugar is 50 high. cookies
that require none are greatly in de-
mand They ill the need OF the pro-
verbal sweet tooth that everybody has,
Young and old 1t has been found that
this craving for sweets is one of the
innate qualities Of human nature. 1t Is
not a cultivated taste. Our systems
require the element that sugar pro
vides. Therefore, when our children
rlamor for sweet things let us have a
supply of satisfying cookies for them.
And when we, too, crave something
sweet. why not crafty our wishes with
cookies since they may be easily made
and keep well.
Here are some good cookie recipes:

WIRELESS FOR GERMAN PRESS.
Press Associations of Country Prepare
to Use 1t More Generally.

Berlin, Feb l0.-All the press organ
izations OF Germany, the representa-
tives of all publishers organizations,
the official Wolf bureau, the Dutch
news agency Trans ocean" and the
German wireless propaganda service,
gathered~in Berlin recantly for dis
cussion 'of the wireless possibilities in
Germany for transmitting news.
DR.. Brelow, who conducted the con
ference, said there have been distrib-
uted daily a report Of the assembly at
Weimar. and news summaries by the
Wolf bureau and Dutch agency. The
news messages have been received by
the government wireless stations at va
rions points in the country and turned
over to the papers The conferees con
cluded that the wireless Is not yet able
to supply the full needs of the press
nor anywhere near il, for the wireless
stations are overloaded with personal
messages. However, they deci led that
the wireless is capable of hand 1g brief
flashes on important stories which are
paralleled by telephone or telegraphed
bv the news agencies so that the news
i available for larger circle Of peo-
Pile
The conference was convinced, how
ever. that the spreading qt such mes
sages can be done in large numbers
only when the wireless telephone has
been Installed. as only in this way the
hiring of special wireless operators can
be avoided They decided that for
the present the sending OF news will
have to continue by telegraph for it
was too expensive to tit up each tele
graph office with wireless equipment.
In few weeks the group viii meet
again to discuss any further technical
experiments with wireless telephony

DR. w. B. Caldwell of Mon
ticello, Illinois, was and is a
- family doctor. The whole
human body, not any small part
oft, was his practice. More than
half his calls" were on women,
children and babies. They are
the ones most often sick. But
their illnesses were usually of a
minor nature-colds, fevers, head
aches, biliousness-and all OF
them required first a thorough
evacuation. They were constipated.
DR.. Caldwell in the course Of 40
years practice, for he was grad
uated from Rush Medical College
back in 1875, had found a good
deal of success in such cases with
a prescription of his own contain
ing simple laxative herbs with
pepsin. In 1892 he decided to
use this formula in the manufac-
ture of medicine to be known as
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and
in that year the preparation was
first placed on the market. The
picture of DR.. Caldwell that APP
pears on the package was taken in
that year.
The preparation Immediately
had as great a success in the drug
stores as it previously had in the
doctors private practice. Today
the third generation is using it.

WEST STREET MAY

County Commissioners Act
When Reports Of Roads Com
missions Plan To Build High
ways Through Incorporated
Towns Become Known
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED
AT MEETING TODAY

Ii is not unlikely that the direct
bed of B., est street will be paved by
the State Roads Commission, instead
of at the expense~of the city of An
napolis, in view of the action taken
by the Board of County Commission
ers in session here today.
The Board having heard through
unofficial channels of the plans of the
State Roads Commission to build
State roads through certain incorpor-
ated towns, adopted resolution
along this line. The resolution touch
ing upon the matter is as follows:
Whereas, That we the Board of
County Commissioners of Anne Arun-
del county having been informed
through the press and other channels
that the State Roads Commission of
Maryland propose to build state
roads through certain incorporated
towns, including Frederick, Easton,
Berlin and others; therefore be it
lhCoOANNAs We tic Scih
Of County Commissioners of Anne
Arundel county do hereby respectfully
lay claim for the paving of that por-
ton of the Baltimore to Solomon's
Island road through the City of An
napolis, known as King George street,
College avenue and West street. Es-
pecially that part of West street
which is in a very bad condition.
That copy of this resolution be fur
nished to the State Roads Commits
sion"
West street, as is generally known,
has been badly in need of improve
ment for the last few years, and that
no provisions have been made for this
is probably due to the fact that the
city treasury has been practically de-
pleted, and that funds that have been
available have been stretched as far
as possible in the street Improvement
plans. This thoroughfare. together
with College Avenue and King George
street, being parts of the State roads
system from Baltimore to Solomon's
Island and other sections of Southern
Maryland, the view is expressed that
the paving of West street should be
provided for.
