IF it's all the same to you. my
pet, I'll take my loved one near"
It's a hating bit Of Jingle. but 1t
expresses a deep truth, which has
been said exquisitely in a poem 1
love to quote:
Friend Of my infinite dreams.
Little enough endures:
Little, howe'er II seems

Fame hath a fleeing breath,
Hope may be fstsl-tho f9na;

The traveller through life learns
at last one great truth. which poem

enduring, unfailing beauty of lifo
In true love. The one great salts
faction of life is fine love 10
which all things may be brought
and of which all things may be
obtained.
Money will buy everything but
health-and love. Success may
command all things save health
and love. But love of the right
sort gives a peace which is likely
to produce health and II has in II
the driving power to achieve sue

The idle and the dreamer may
dawdle through life without onco
making an honest effort to produce
any worthy contribution to life.
The lazy luxury of dreaming may
be enough for even a worthwhile
soul until the inspiration OF a
great love comes. But a fine love
is always inspiring.
Consider the case Of Louise. For
years those of us who were her
friends watched her using about
so per cent of her power. She did
many things we'll enough to make
her life a fairly constructive thing.
But we who knew her felt she
was just muddlng along, doing
enough with her gifts to keep hor
head above water and not suffi-
cient to make her count. Then
she fell in love-honestly and fine.

To curl feathers, allow them to

eggs. One medium sized carrot will
take the place of two eggs.
An appetizing way of using up
the remains OF any cold hashed
meat is to add sufficient bread
crumbs to stiffen 1t, then mix with
the yolk of an egg, roll in bread
crumbs and grated cheese, and fry
to a light brown.
One of the best ways to clean old
paint brushes Is to put two or three
handfufs of soda into a can of boil
ing water and put the brush in and
let 1t stay all night.
Unslacked lime, spread over the
walls of a damp cellar, will prevent

This gives a splendid opportunity to
make over frocks from last season
and to use up short lengths ana
remnants.
A lovely combination for hot days
is a frock Of red and white checked
bingham with an entire foundation
frock Of sheer white organdy. me
under dress consists Of a two-piece
skirt. rather full with hem almost
up to the hips.
To this is attached a bandeau cam
isole Of double material, suspended
from shoulder straps.
Separate from this organdy foun-
dation ito facilitate laundering Is
a long tuxedo dress of the Bingham
with facing of white organdy ex-
tending the whole length OF the
front. Organdy cuffs finish the short
sleeves, and big fluffy sash OF the
crisp material girdles the hips.
Organdy and taffeta are again be-
ing introduced for informal wear,
and, although this was shown late
last season, many novel ways OF
combining them are offered this
summer. Not only does one flnd

entire foundation OF a frock may be

TE you really MINK tnat the hui-

that a lone venturer into the will
derness needs to learn, and that is,
to carry in his memory with con-
siderable clearness a picture of the
whole forest region, including Its
outline, and the situation of its
corners and boundaries with refer
ence to well-known points outside.
No one should venture unguided
into the depths of the Adirondacks
without carrying In his pocket
reliable map of their whole area,
with the meridian lines indicated.
As you apparently understand a

the point where you are lost to
one or more fixed points beyond

points of the compass, alone will
not suffice to enable you to strike
the edge of the wilderness at a
chosen place.
Your special need Is to be sure
of the direction from you to that
place, and this can only be II you
have a fairly correct notion of the
location Of the point where you are
in the woods and the bearing from
that point to the place In question.
II Is in furnishing this informa-

All that will be done at this SEES
sion. II was indicated, will be to

means for compensation for ex-serv'
sco men and women. as provided In
the House bill passed last session. and
Leave the rest to the new Congress.
Republican leaders admitted they
ala not see how q cash bonus could
be provided for by the new Congress
without taxation being Increased.
They had decided. however, to permit
fhe question of means go over until
the next administration. and seek to
have Congress only act favorably on
the methods OF payment now.
Senator Penrose. Republican. OF
Pennsylvania, will call the Senate

day or Tuesday for the purpose Of

visions inserted In the House meas
ure probably will be eliminated.

BlANT0NCAN'T
CLAIM
Honor Of Blocking Higher Pay
For Congressman Really
Belongs to Wood.

1t appears that Congressman
Thomas l.. Blanton is going to have
as much trouble in claiming his de-
feat of the proposed increase in
Congressmen's salaries as DOC"
Cook did in trying OF substantiate
his claim to the discovery of the
North Pole.
CITES CONGRESSIONAL RECORD.
Following his verbal combat in the
House with his Texas colleague. Hat
ton w. Summers, Blanton issued a
statement yesterday to prove by the
Congressional Record that, he really
was the man who killed the proposed
raid on the peoples Treasury ty
members of Congress.
It's there in black and white, all
right, to the effect that Blanto did
make point of order against the
amendment But the wiley Texan,
for reasons OF his, own, failed to men
ton the fact that Congressman Wood
Of Indiana "got there first with q
point of order all his own.
Blanto, asleep at the switch, fol-
lowed a close second, with Campbell
Of Pennsylvania close third.
HONOR GOES TO WOOD.
Under the rules Of the House the
honor goes to Mr.. Wood of Indiana
and not to Blanton. regardless OF
everything else the Texan chooses to
say.
In his statement to the public
Blanton charges that his Texas COL
league Is sharing in the spoils OF
Congress.
He berates Mr. Summers (who Is q
bachelor) for accepting the cedar
chest, the pine chest and the oak
chest, which is presented to each
member. Then he proceeds to Eek
pose" Mr.. Summers for accepting the
mileage compensation at the rate OF
20 cents a mile which is allowed each
member.
Life Is too short" says Mr.. Sum-
ners," to reply to these charges"
