cipitatc the civil war that has broken
forth in the Turkish harem over the

II Is altogether the inodc-and not the

raising such hue and cry about. Tho
Bosnian women from time immemorlal
have gone heavily veiled in thick opaque
coverings, writes an American Red Cross
woman worker in the Balkans. But last
fall enterprising Turkish merchants IN
Constantinople shipped into Bosnia the
thinnest. prettiest, most transparent face
wells these little Mohammedan wives had
ever seen. The new mode reveals much
of the bea t. of feature which formerly
was reserved only for the jealous eye OF
the husband.
The women are wild to wear these wells
bu their husban-s swear they shall
never don them. Meanwhile, the re-
bellion goes on in the harem, and the
Bosnian men are wondering how American
husbands have stood it so long.

DINNER IN A DISH.

For the day that you want to simplify
the dinner getting and above all the dinner
clearing there il nothing so convenient
as dinner in single dish That Is the
main dish for dinner that contains the
equivalent of meat, potato and other
vegetable-protein, starch and green
which is what every we'll planned main
course at simple dinner ought to contain.
Here is n recipe for such a dish that is
used in a boys dormitory where always
an effort is made TO make dishes appetizing
and wholesome, and of course as nourish-
ing as possible. To make 1t you will need
n pound of some sort of inexpensive meat.
In the dormitory in question where 1T was
made in larger quantities soup meat was
used You will also need two sweet
green peppers and macaroni to amount TO
four cups when cooked. Now cut up the
meat and let simmer until tender and when
done thiclSen the juice with q little -four
beaten up in cold water TO make q gravy.
Cook the macaIoni until tender and par
boil the green pepper. Now put the
ices of meat through the meat grinder
and grind the green pepper You Will
need fairly large baking dish which should
be slightly creased on the bottom. Now
lay in layer of the macaroni then some
of the green pepper and meat, now SONG
HihcAfpuf anu bptiU iiit llitht biih f't'PNi'
Season the gravy well with salt and pepper
and pour over the dish when YOU have
added layers enough to fill the dish. Top
off with layer of the macaroni, over
which il YOU choose YOU may sprinkle
some buttered bread crumbs but this IS
not necessary. Bake in moderate oven
until slightly Drowned
Nou may II you wish use up lett over
meat in tins way and If there IL no gravy
10 add YOU might use well seasoned thin
white sauce instead
Sometimes as n matter of convenience
YOU might put this mixture in good sized
individual dishes serving one to each
person at dinner.
Really there is no limit to the one dish
dinners that YOU may devise. The chief
thing 60 consider of course Is what YOU
have in hand and what you can get con
veniently With left over chicken YOU
might combine long cooked hominy and
green peas IN baked dish that would
be delicious. Ono woman makes a de-
icious dish she calls baked Irish stew.
She uses left over beef which she puts
in Il baking dish with white potatoes
cut into quarters that have previously
been boiled with carrots and onions which
she likewise adds 20 the dish. She adds
a thickened meat gravy and adds good
laver OF buttered bread crumbs. Such a
dish served with g generous portion Of
fruit salad and bread and butter would
| be enough for any ones dinner and could
certainly minimize dishes and service

named the Stonewall Jackson, was the

was sold at the close of the Civil war
to the Japanese and renamed the Ad-

POWER OF WATER
Surprising What 1t viii Do Under
Certain Conditions.
Jet From Nozzle Eats Away Large
Piece of Land in Day and Toys
With Boulders as II They
Were Pebbles.

When a man goes in swimming at
the seashore and slaps the water forci-
bly, with his hand, or takes a back dive
from a pier and lands squarely on his
back, he realizes that the unstable
liquid offers not a little resistance. Yet
it would surprise almost anybody to
see what water will do under certain
conditions.
A stream from a ireman's hose will
knock q man down.. The jet from a
nozzle used in placer mining in the
West eats away a large piece of land
in a day, toys with great boulders as
if they were pebbles and would shoot q
man over the country as though he
were a prOjectile from q cannon.
There is a story of an eastern
blacksmith who went West and made
q bet that he could knock a hole
through the jet of one of these nozzles
with a sledgehammer.. He lifted his
arms, swung the sledge and came down
upon the ten-inch stream with a force
that would have dented'Aan anvil. But
the jet, never penetrated, whisked the
massive hammer out of the black
smiths hands and tossed it several
hundred feet away into the debris of
.gold-bearing gravel beneath a crumb-
ling cliff. After this the blacksmith
left out iron when he spoke Of hard
substances.
There is also a power plant near
Durango, Col, where a United States
ca%valryman one day thought he had an
easy job in cutting a two-inch stream
with his sword. He made a valiant
attack. The result was that his sword
was shiyered in two and his wrist
broken.
A little thinner jet Of water descend
ing 1900 feet to a mandatory at
Grenoble, France. and travelling at the
moderate speed of 100 yards a second,
fractures the best blades Of Toledo.
= OF course some persons will not he
lfeve such stories without having seen
the thing, and n may think it a proof
of the scientific imagination to say that
an inch-thick sheet of water, provided
1t had sufficient velocity, would ward
off bombshells as we'll as steel plate.
Nevertheless, many persons, while
travelling, have seen a brakeman put a,
small hydraulic jack under one end
or a Pullman car and lift twenty tons
OF so by'a few leisurely strokes of the
pump handle, and the experience of
riding every day in a hydraulic eleva-
tor tends to remove doubts of the
magic power possessed by water
hitched to a machine.
