ton? And this is all due to an
energetic student of an economical
turn of mind, who positively would
not wickedly waste some 25 cents
worth OF dyestuff and chemicals;
and, instead of dumping them into
the sink, as I told her to, saved
them in the dyepot tia the next
lesson!
If, however, the shade is too
light, as will probably be the case
with all but delicate shades, unless
an extra large amount of dye is
used, the sprinkling into the boil
ing liquor of one or two table
spoonsful of salt, while vigorous

ly turning the goods, will throw
most, if not all, of the dye into the
goods and, as well, make the color
little faster to washing. When
this salt is added the goods should
be boiled for fifteen or twenty
minutes more before taking out, to
avoid any unevenness.
Irregular Dyeing for Patterns
One of the rules of the game in
handicraft of all sorts is that it is
foolish to waste time and thought
and energy in producing by hand
something that can be done just as
we'll, and infinitely cheaper, by ma
chlnery. And so, in dyeing, why
go to the trouble and bother and ex-
pense of getting the cloth and the
dyes and the dyepot and working
and fussing over the hot stoves,
simply to produce something you
can buy by the yard at any depart
ment store?
Original effects, however, can be
produced with a little care, in two or
three different ways.
For instance, after dyeing your
goods, say pair of light muslin
curtains, nice and even, why not
make up another dye bath of diff
ferent color and, keeping the goods
very wet, dip one end slowly into the
hot dye liquor, thus changing, and
probably deepening, the color. The
success of this depends on blending
the colors smoothly and evenly. If
the cloth is the least dry there will
be sharp line, sort of water
mark, between the old and the new.
In that case a much diluted bath of
the second color, with a little soap
IN it, can be used to try to blend the
two shades together.
Tied Work
Another method which gives not
only shades but patterns and from
which wonderfully pretty effects can
be obtained with but little labor, is

Tomatoes With Kidney

Serve one tomato as an individual
portion, having it of good size; and
Tor three tomatoes, allow one veal
kidney. Saute the kidney that has
been cut in slices in hot bacon fat
and cut in fine dice. Cut a piece
from the top of each tomato, scoop
out the interior and chop finely. Add
to the kidney two tablespoonfuls of
crushed dried bread crumbs, salt and

found, instead of the luscious, juicy
fruit they expected, one of a pump
kinlike taste and consistency.
Marketing and Storage
Now there is no royal road in se-
lecting good cantaloupe, casaba
or honeydew melon, but there are a
few helpful suggestions that are
really practical. Always select a
melon heavy for its size, and if the
stem-end is pliable enough to be
gently pushed in with the thumb
you will probably find it ripened to
just the right degree of perfection.
A rough-coated melon is also to be
preferred, and if it has a spicy
fragrance even through the rind you
will be pretty safe in buying it
Melons are not an inexpensive
fruit, even when in season, but as
the rind, like that of watermelon,
may be made into delicious, spiced
sweet pickle, it really gives two
dishes for the original price. With
sugar selling as low as cents a
pound when bought in 50-pound
lots, tie preserve closet should be
lavishly filled this year.
When selecting a watermelon it
depends upon the market man
whether he will "plug" it for you or
not. This, of course, makes a GER
tainty of the goodness of the melon
but if this is not possible select one
with a rich, dark rind, fully ripened
and without blisters on the skin.
Melons of whatever variety should
be chilled for at least twenty-four
hours on the ice and, when the home
ice-chest is Of small capacity, the
grocer will generally keep it for you
in cold storage until you want it.
If on cutting a melon it does not
come quite up to your expectations,
do not be discouraged, but serve in
any of the attractive cocktails,
salads, compotes, etc. A little
doctoring up will accomplish Won
ders, and sugar, spices, orange,
lemon and grape juice, allowed to
stand on the melon for several hours

for each service and Le sure that it is
thoroughly chilled. Cut in thin
slices and remove the rind. When
ready to make the salad, arrange the
slices on crisp lettuce leaves in a
circle with the edges overlapping
each other and pour over the follow
ing dressing: Two tablespoonful Of
salad oil, one teaspoonful of lemon
juice, a tiny pinch of grated nutmeg,
half teaspoonful of powdered
sugar, one tablespoonful of grape
juice and a few grains of salt and
paprika. Garnish with a stuffed

Watermelon Rind Pickle
This recipe is equally good for
muskmelons. Cut in slices, remove
the green rind and the soft edible
pulp (this may be used ina other
ways). Cut the slices into fancy
shapes, as uniform in size as pos
sible. To each quart of cold water
add one-quarter of a cupful of salt,
pour this over the prepared melon
and let stand overnight. Drain.

annual pre-holiday slaughter.

STOCK INVESTMENTS

One reason why people lose mon
cy in stock SpeculatiOns, is that
outsiders do not know the inside
facts about investments. People
will be told by some newspaper or
broker that certain stock is low
and is going to rise. They buy on
that tip and usually find out later
that there was good reason for
the stock being low. It's business
prospects were not good, and the
insiders were selling out
The only time the outsider stands
any chance to win. is when he buys
sonnd and substantial stocks at n
time when the whole market is de.
pressed II the thought and atten.
tion which many people put into
stock speculation, were devoted to
studying ont way to make money
in their home surroundings, they
would come out a whole lot better.
Too many unseen forces maniulate
the stock market in ways you can
not foresee.

Special Despatch TO TIE NEW York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. g., June 1.
Where Government begins and
where II ends is q question which IL
properly answered would help roll up
savings Of hundreds of millions of dol
lars in the swollen Federal expendi-
lures which at present are kept at an
abnormal figure by the thousands of
political bloodsuckers attached to the
public payroll. The wa furnished an
excuse for starting innumerable bu-
reaus and commissions under the Gov
eminent, and now almos. three years
after the amistice fully half billion
and possibly as much as billion dol
lars year still flows out of the pub
lie treasury to keep up these war ac-
tivities.
One Of the greatest abuses of pub
lie funds is in the bewildering maze
Of Government activities purporting
to aid soldiers who fought in the
war. Because it is possible on sem
timental grounds to put through APP
propriations for such activities, hum
dreds Of thousands Of dollars are
thrown away in the duplication of SER
vices by boards and bureaus, with the
net result that the soldiers actually
do not get anything like the benefit
they would receive If the expenditures
were cut in half and the money eff
GENTLY administered under some CEN
trail authority.
But there are numerous other activt-
ties having nothing to do with war work,
and these bureaus and boards are scat
tered throughout the Government de-
partnents. Their personnel runs into
the thousands. but the cost of their OPP
erations far exceeds the sums paid in
salaries. They are appropriated for not
Oily directly but indirectly. and It is
therefore impossible to trace their ex-
penses except In a limited number of
cases How they account for many
millions of dollars can be seen from the
size Of the sundry civil appropriation
bill and the legislative appropriation bill
