AS THE PEOPLE VIEW 1T

Imore than they ought to be. That
being the case, let their salaries ID
at once reduced. 1t makes no diff
ference that probably hundreds Of
peanut politicians are also ovef-
paid; they serve the state and
should be rewarded by the state.
lie teacher merely serves society
and the future; such service being
nebulous, the remuneration should
be equally so.
Fun lermore, If the teacher is =
woman, she is either living With
her family and has no expense to
bear, or she is looking for ard TO
an early emancipation from tire
profession in the shape of a pros
fitable marriage. In either case she
deserves no consideration from
those who hold the purse. The
man teacher needs no more than
enough to support himself in
comfortable (but not too comforts
.able) bachelordom, for, as Bacon
says, "the best works have proceeds
ed from unmarried or childless
men," If any marrying is to be
done, let him marry his profession.
Too much money would distract
his mind from his work and lead
him to spend 1t in books, an autos
mobile, insurance, or other frivoli<
ties
Finally, If other states see fit to
underpay their teachers, should the
young state OF New Mexico pre-
sumo to point the way? Let 1t fol-
low the crowd and decide nothing
IN the rneritS of the case This ia
no time for idealism. The war is
over, and we must be getting back
to normally.

the MARKETS


New York. July 6.-The stock
market today made a sudden and
spirited advance after further early
unsettlement in which new low
records were established by various
| speculative issues.
Specific developments to ex-
plain the recovery were lacking but
the haste with which shorts cover
ed testified to the precarious posi-
tion Of that faction. Dealings were
active and broad. sales of 935, 700
shares being nearly three times
those of yesterday.
Mexican Petroleum, the spectac-
ular feature of the last two months,
again was the pivotal issue. That
stock rallied from its early low of
S7% to 101 u. making net gain
of ten points.
Pan-American Petroleum. At
lantic Gulf and General Asphalt
ended at gains of five and half
to eight points and some of the do
nestle issues of that group also
showed marked strength, but Euro
pean oils, reversing yesterdays
movement, were heavy,
Further price cutting by Repub-
lie and Lackawanna Steels was
without detriment to those indus
trials. in which advances ranged
from two to five and a half points,
equipments and motors also finish

The rise of rails was especially
impressive, embracing many OF the
high grade transcontinentais ana
grangers, notably Canadian Pacific.
Great Northern. Northern Pacific,
also Louisville & Nashville and
Atlantic Coast Line, at gains OF TWO
to nearly five points.
Call money rates were steady at
51k per cent on the exchange and
as low as AZ per cent In the open
market. Foreign exchanges de-
noted uncertain conditions abroad,
sterling rallying from early reac-
ton, while continental remittances
continued to ease and far eastern
rates showed increased strength.
With few exceptions Liberty and

PUTTING UP THE RASP-
BERRY AND CURRANT.

The woman who enjoys her
canning, welcomes currants and
raspberries as they ripen on her
bushes or appear in the market
place. For they are fruits which
seldom result in a preserving
failure. The inexperienced house
keeper will do we'll to begin her
canning experience with these
fruits.
Raspberries are so perishable
that they should be put up as
soon as picked or delivered from
the market. They are generally
combined with currant juice for
the reason that currants contain
much "Pectin"-that substance
which makes jelly "jelr' or stiff
en-.
Currants should never be pick
ed directly after a rain. They
make the best preserves when
they are put up before becoming
quit ripe. The cherry currants,"
on account of their large size and
delicious flavor, are better to use
in preserving than the smaller
varieties, and the price for them
is generally only few cents
more a quart.
Currant Jelly: Do not stem,
but remove all leaves and wilted
fruit. Place a layer of the cur
rants In the bottom of the pre-
serving kettle and mash them
well with the bottom of a cup,
then add few more and mash
again-continuing until you have
smashed all you have in this way.
Add no water. Simply set the
kettle over slow fire to draw
out the juice and when the cur
rants look white, strain the juice
through double cheesecloth. Mea-
sure this strained juice and for
each cupful of it set aside a cup
OF granulated sugar. Put the
measured juice back into the pre-
serving kettle and bring to boil
ing point; boil for five minutes,
then add the measured sugar and
continuing boiling until the. "jelly
stage" is reached Chat is, until
two drops will form at once on
a spoon, when a little of the juice

THE SUMMER COMPLEXION.

This Is the time of the year when
all beauty problems give way be-
fore the great one Of what to do
about freckies and sunburn. Un-
fortunately, It Is a very difficult
problem. Some compilations are
so sensitive that the hot sun acts
almost as a poison, while other
skins acquire a. healthy tan which
lasts far into the winter months.
There are all sorts Of prepared
lotions that are supposed to act
quickly upon sunburn, but these
are necessarily very strong, and l.
hesitate to recommend them. Many
compilations cannot stand a strong
lotion.
That is why I talk so much
about methods of prevention. But
il. in spite of your efforts, your
skin has acquired too many
freckles or g. strong coat of tan,
I would advise you to choose a
slower method of bleaching with
some lotion you know to be harm
less. Personally, think cucum-
Der milk Is unrivalled for keeping
the skin smooth and white. 1t Will
bleach freckles and sunburn to a
really great extent. and 1t has the
advantage of making the skin fine
grained as well as bleaching 1t. In
deed, 1t Is very good for the skin.
Here Is the formula:
Cucumber Milk.
Oil of sweet almonds 49, ounces
Fresh cucumber juice 40 ounces
Essence of cucumbers. ...S ounces
White CASTLE soap, pow
5ared .3-4 ounce
Tincture of benzoin. :. .2-3 drachm
The Juice of the cucumbers Is
obtained by slicing them thin,
cooking slowly in a little water and
straining. Make the essence by
putting an ounce and a half OF
the juice into the same quantity
of alcohol. Shake this with the
soap In a large jar. When dis

| When this stage Is reached, turn
| the jelly at once into hot, steril-
| lied glasses and let cool. Then
cover with melted paraffine,
Red Raspberry Jam with Cur
rant Juice: Wash and crush the
raspberries and to each quart of
the crushed fruit add IL cup of
currant Juice; let this mixture
stand for Is minutes, then mea-
sure it by cupfuls and turn 1t
into the preserving kettle; bring
to boiling point, let simmer for
20 minutes, then add three-quar-
ters of a cup of granulated SUI
gar for every cupful of the Juice
you measured before, and let con-
tinue to cook until a little of the
jam-syrup will form two drops
at once on a spoon, as above de-
scribed. Then fill into hot, ster-
illzed glasses, let cool. and cover
with parafflne.
Currant Conserve: Mix together
quarts of stemmed currants, 8
quarts of granulated sugar, l
pound of seeded raisins Qarge,
put through food chopper. the
rind and pulp OF 2 oranges, and
rind and pulp of lemon. Let
this mixture stand in the pre-
serving kettle for 2 hours, then
cook over a slow fire until as
thick as marmalade, stirring now
and then so that 1t will not burn
at the bottom. Turn into hot,
sterilized jelly glasses and cover
when cold with melted paraffine.
Raspberry Jelly: Mash a guam
tity of raspberrier in one galvan-
lied kettle, and quantity of
currants in another kettle, al
lowing these to cook slightly
until the juice runs freely (add-
ing no water to either). Then
strain the juices separately. Com
bine in the proportion of two
thirds of this strained raspberry
juice to one-third OF currant
juice. Then measure by cupfuls
and set aside an equal amount
of sugar. Heat the juices in a
preserving kettle, let them cook
for 20 minutes, then add the mea-
sured sugar and let boil until 1t
jells, after which turn into hot,

"Oh. now you may go to sleep

'I'll play with the doll you made

Uncle Wiggily stopped his pink

his eyes. He was far, far off In

jumped Big Black Bear.

was beautiful weather, just warm
| enough and not too warm, and
Uncle Wiggily, reaching a soft
moss covered log. sat down to
rest.

farther?" asked Baby Bunty, who
was such a lively little rabbit
girl that she hardly seemed to
want to be quiet minute at a

In fact, Uncle Wiggily was just
doing off in a little nap, when
he felt Baby Bunty tugging at his
coat-tails, and the little rabbit
"oh, Uncle wiggily! This isn't
any fun! II you are going to
sleep l want my DOLL"
"Eh? What's that? What's
that you had a fall?" cried the
rabbit uncle, suddenly opening his
eyes.

then you can go to sleep"

gily, for he was so comfortable
on the green, messy log that he
didn't want to get UP and go all
the way back over the fields and
through the woods. ooh, dear!
Wouldn't any other doll do you
just as well, Baby Bunty?" he
asked.
''Well, yes, I guess So" slow
ly answered the little tyke. "But
how can you get me doll here
In the woods?"
"I'll make you one." said
Uncle Wiggily.

offered the rabbit gentleman. He
thought If he went to sleep Baby
