SUGGESTIONS FOR

: GESE i0lSo FO6
 THE HOUSEWIFE
 To make good pastry the ingredi- ents must be ice cold.
 Banana ice cream is delicious and nourishing.
 Brown sauce should have a slight onion flavor.
 Before stuffing green peppers par boil them. Lay tough meat in venigar water a few minutes. If you wrap cheese in a cloth rnois- tened with cold vinegar the cheese will neither mold or dry. 4 variety of herb vinegars is a han dy thing to have on hand in the kitch- en. Buttermilk- makes better biscuit, i cornbread and mullins thans sweet l milk. Unravel what remains of the child 1 ren's old stockings, wind on a spool and use for. darning other stockings. Put layers of sponge cake together with jam and top the whole with whip ped cream. | The grated rind of a lemon or an | orange aQ06Q to IDe cake, ifOt OHty l gives it an agreeable flavor, but pre- vents it from becoming stale too | quickly. 1 4 corncob cut in half is an effectual scraper for aluminium utensils. The corncob cleans the vessel without scratching it. l When washing cut glass add ter 1 pentine to the water in the propor- 1 tion of one tablespoon to two quarts | of water. This will insure a brilliant 1 polish.
 When you oven gets too hot don't open the door. Place a pan of cold water inside. This will cool it and the warm steam will prevent the contents from burning. If a funnel is place over a tumbler and the eggs cracked into it, one at a | time. the white runs down into the glass and the yolk can be tilted out on the top.

UNwARRANrED STRIKES.

The country has gone through the deplorable experience of a number of
 outlaw strikes which not only worked
 y and indirectly affected by those who
 left their employment but they failed sadly of the desired results
 Unfortunately such failures do not seem to have made much Of an impres-
 sion upon those longshoremen to the number of 5000 who have joined in a protest against the reduction in wages
 which have Seen agreed to by their of hcials by going out on an illegal strike,
 While their quarrel is with the heads
 of their own organization they are not hesitating to put everyone else who
 have to depend upon the transportation Ines with which they are connected to end less inconvenience and loss. The stopping of work is in keeping
 with the course that has been followed
 by members of two trades engaged ir building a large hotel in Providence
 where an agreement could not be reach ed as to which would do a particular part of the work and the result is that WHO they are hot "othlls tuners ai also thrown out of employment ana
 thousands of 'o''a~~ a day are beins l Host by the contractors and the hote | owners. who are in no way involved il tna dispute.
 l It is an unfortunate tine for any body of men to throw down their tool land roruse to work Under such conGi tiooz as those surrounding the outlay l strike it is to be realized that thert are many others who will he only to, anxious to take their places, and wh, will he called in to work even by tn, iurion leaders.

PACKING YOUR SUMMER EUR

If you are putting your summer furs away, it will be a pretty good idea to clean them before you pack them.
 If they're dark in color you can clean them easily at home with bran or a little oatmeal. eat the bran or oat- meal. Rub it well into the fur while warm. Don't treat the skin too harsh ly but be thorough.
 Then shake well to remove the cleaning substance. If the fur doesn't seem as clean as it should be repeat the bran process. After shaking once more beat it lightly with a piece ot rubber hose and comb, preferably with steel comb.
 White furs can be cleaned by the same process except that the first bran bath should be a little damp The second one should be dry anG after that has been shaken out of the fur apply magnesia rubbing lightly 1 against the grain of the fur. Shake well, beat lightly and air be. l fore packing.

rHE cANAL TOLL Rnr.

Perfectly evident is 't that congress had plenty of business on hand that ought to he disposed of as quickly as possible. Under such conditions there existed sufficient reason why President Harding should let it be known that it would shit his wishes # there was an indefinite postponepsut of the bill pre- ssnted by Senator Borah for the repeal Of the existing law concerning the pay ruent of tolls by vessels using the Pan ana canal. by which there would be accomplished the giving of free passa ge to American ships engaged In the coast wise trade.
 The matter of tolls in the Panama ca mai Is by DO means a new question. Ii has received long and careful attention and it IS well known that there is in. voived long and careful attention and il is well known that there Is involved American good faith in view of the pro. visions of the Hay-Pauncefots treat, under which there are reasons to expec that all ships will be treated alike witE no special distinction made for Ameri can vessels

SPANISH SCARF NEeLIeEEs

The Spanish scarf has entered into it's own for boudoir use, as in so many other departments of women's appar- eI. The all black or the all white en- broidered and deeply fringed Spanish scarf can be draped about the figure in various ways for negligee use. The large scarfs are of sufficient size to make the entire negligee, the smaller >one are draped over a separate slip matching in color.
 Spanish influence has also taken the form of numerous effects in allover black lace, generally in coat form to be worn over separate underslips.
 Following in the footsteps Of the vogue for the garment that can be stepped into is a new negIigee, the pattern of which has been patented. Il is suggestive of the harem trouser in that the front panel is looped UT between the ankles to form the back thus leaving only small apertures fo, the ankles. This is developed in va. l riouS style.

 there $ every reason to expect that it will be possible to comfortably accom- mo1.te all those who desire to vote.
 However. in view of large voting dis trists and the large number entitled to vote there should be an effort made on the 1art of all voters to make use If the fun voting period by getting to the polls as carly as possible and by going to vote at such hours when pos sihla IS will not add to the rush of the midday voting

If you would give the dinity the same body that it had before it was washed use in the rinsing water a teacup of starch with tablespoon of borax.
 To prevent white silk shirtwaists from turning yellow wash them in cool suds use white soap, do not rub soap on the silk, dry indoors or in the shade and press with an iron which is not too hot.
 If you would make your silk stock ings wear longer, rinse at least the feet out in cold yater after you wear them. It is the precipitation which makes the holes in the feet, rinsing them eliminates it before it has had time to get in its work.
 Chloride of lime used intelligent ly will remove mildew. Do not use I-too much.

FABRIC GLOVES PREFERRED

Fabric gloves, which have recently been taking precedence over kid in France are shown in 16-button length gauntlet style. They are in a pleasing range of co1ors including gray, fawn white, yellow and brown. The tex ture is fine and the finish feels like undressed kid. Silk stitching on the back is wide enough to suggest a trim.
 Chamois gloves in an unusually soft finish are shown in the same styles as the fabric ones with a few additional models. For the woman who drives
 in her car there are gloves with a
 silk back and chamois palm, while for the glofer one glove is faced with heavy kid and on the knuckles of the other are cut out. The hand stitched models in contrasting color are con- sidered smart for sport wear. Checked effects are interesting ach- ived by interlaced strips of kid. They are used in black and white and il brown and white to line gauntlet mod els with matching stitching on the backs and in one instance form wide cuffs on a smart pair of gloves, which l is sl1etched herewith.

IRONING DAY

Are you sure that you know the cor rect way to use you electric iron?
 For quick. light work, such as the smoothing of a single blouse or few handkerchiefs, it is permissible to screw the plug into any convenient lighting socket, but for the regular ironing it Is more convenient and the cord will last longer if provisions are made for suspending the cord upon a light coil spring Such springs can be purchased at any hardware store for a small cost.
 Keep the cord of your iron free from kinks which wear upon the insulation and finally result in it's breaking. Ii must be understood that the cords sup- piled with electric appliances are made strong. but no insulation can possibly be made which will not wear and break in time if it, be strained and charred and bent continuously back and forth at one point.

Nervousness, you know. is often bred by fear, but it is as often to other causes.
 But if his nails are narrow and long. with tendency to curve more than the average, you know that no matter how well he may have himself under control, underneath it all there is a foundamental tendency to tinlidity in his makeup.

DRESS HOSIERY IS BLOCKED

Clocks are receiving all the en- phasis in hosiery for dress occasions. Lace stockings are feaured for even ing and some in drop stitch are to be seen again in vivid colors to be worn with boudoir mules
 The biggest thing at the moment is the, so-called nude hosiery, in rose being sold to be worn with black patent leather shoes.
 Spanish effects which follow the trend of the moment are emphasized They are in allover lace designs with large or small flowers giving a plea sing effect. The filet mesh is another innovation that has style interest.

WHEN THERE IS NO ICE

Celery, radishes, lettuce and all kinds of vegetables can be kept without ice if put into cloth bag and thoroughly wet with cold water, then put into 9 pitcher or tall crock with about an inch of water in the bottom. This keeps the cloth damp and the vege- tables crisp and fresh without dis solving any Of the good minerals that they contain. A paper pinned around the top will keep air from drying the cloth. If kept in a cool dark place vii keep fresh for several days.

But so completely did his will and his reason dominate his instincts that he led his armies to victory after victory, being himself nearly always under fire.
