Old Housekeeper -- Instead of
using a regular iron disc such as is
used on a manufactured fireless
cooker for baking foods, why
couldn't | get my husband to solder
a ring on the under side of my
home made fireless cooker pals
cover and attach a very hot flat
iron to this ring? Why wouldn't this
act the same as a regular disc, in
baking a food put beneath it?"
AnsWer-It would. | think the
idea a splendid one. You can bake
veal loaves, beef loaves, small
roasts of meat. in fact anything, in
this way. | hope other readers see
ing this suggestion of yours, will
take advantage of it. OF course one
can always put handeless hot iron
in the bottom of the pail of a home
made fireless cooker and this will
bake foods set upon it on a pan;
but the hot iron above the food
browns the food and seems to be
more ccessful-indeed in some
cases, an iron above and below the
pan containing food, is necessary.
Mrs J.-"ls there such thing as
a cook book devoted just to fireless
cooker recipes? If 50, win you print
the name of it?"
Answer--Yes. If you win send
me a stamped, self-addressed en-
velope | will gladly send you the
name of a cook book of this sort
with the address of it's publisher
But l cannot print the name in
this column, for that is advertising.

HERBERT j. HAGERMAN.

In Ex-Governor Herbert ]. Hagerman New Mex
leo has its most distinguished and useful private
citizen ~
Requested by Governor Larrazolo to become
chairman of the Special Revenue Commission, which
was created by the legislature one year ago he un-
selfshly laid aside his personal business and his
private inclinations and assumed the most burden
some and disagreeable piece of public work under
taken by any one in the history of New Mexico.
He brought to that task a ripe knowledge of New
Mexicos affairs the highest conceivable ideals of
civic duty and a heart which was unafrad.
He found other sources of financial aid for the
commission when its appropriation proved to be in
adequate He employed great experts to aid the
commission
In reaching his conclusions he followed unwaver-
ngy where the facts and the logic of his investiga-
tons led him. He trimmed no course to political ex-
pedieney He gave the people the very best there
was In him. He did it without hope of reward
Starting with preconceived ideas upon mine
taxation his study and his consultation with experts
led him to the inevitable conclusion that the ad
yalorem was the only just system Of mine assessment
He did this knowing how bitter would be the resent
ment OF the mine owners who had been his intimate
friends But he put duty before friendship
The report of the Special Revenue Commission
has set ideals in government toward which New Mex
leo will painfully struggle for decade before thew
are realized. This report is great piece of states
manship,
New Mexico owes H. J. Hagerman q great debt
OF gratitude He is an example of the very best in
our American citizenry New Mexico sorely needs
more men of his devotion to public service and in
dependence of thought and action

A CoNCILIAToRY ATTITUDE.

William B. Storey president of the Santa Fe sys-
tem believes that the matters at issue between the
railroad and its employees can be settled without frc-
ton.
While admitting that retrenchment is necessary
Mr. Storey declares that there will be reduction in
wages unless scale is agreed upon between
the company and the employees, or until the railway
labor board authorizes decreases
If both capital and labor always adopted this
friendly attitude, the greater part of industrial
problems would be solved Once men can get around
table and talk things over, they not very like
y to leave the conference calling each other names

INTERIOR OF CHURCH
WRECKED BY VANDALS

Denver, Colo, March ,15.--Van-
dals last night destroyed the in
terror of Holy Rosary Catholic
church, Forty seven avenue and
Pearl street. Using crowbars and
other heavy implements the in
vaders destroyed the altar, tore
down the cross and accomplished
other ruin estimated in excess of
$4,000. The damage was not des-
covered until today.
Entrance to the church was
gained through a rear door, the
lock of which was sawed out. Po-
lice and church members said to-
day they believed destruction and
Dissertation were the motives which
actuated those who did the dam

UNTIL SHE DIED.

Until she died we never knew
The beauty of our faith in God.
We'd seen the summer roses nod
And wither as the tempests blew
Through many a spring we'd lived to see
The buds returning to the tree.
We had not felt the touch of woe, ..
What cares had come, had lightly flown,
Our burdens we had borne alone
The need of God we did not know.
seemed sufficient through the days
To think and act in worldly ways
And then she closed her eyes in sleep.
She left US for a little while,
No more our lives would know her smile,
And oh, the hurt of it went deep!
1t seemed to us that we must fall
Before the anguish of it ALL
Our faith, which had not known the test,
Then blossomed with its comfort sweet,
Promised that some day we should meet
And whispered to us. HE knows best"
And when our bitter tears were dried,
We found our faith was glorified,

quickly that he left the front door

makes us feel our years, and fills
our hearts with sorrow, and
though a balmy day appears,
small comfort can we borrow, for
we are always filled with fears of

FOSSIL TOOTH OF AN
ELEPHANT IS FOUND;
PLACED IN A MUSEUM

Cambridge, Mass. March ID
The fossil tooth of a. prehistoric
elephant found In Vermont in 1S49
and presented to the Geological
museum of Harvard university as
its first specimen, has only recent
ly been received at the museum,
after curious history. The director
of the museum is Samuel Hen
shaw, a grandson of Samuel Hen
shaw, of Boston, who found the
fossil and presented it to Harvard,
The tooth, which is nearly a
foot long and several inches thick,
was found with other fossil ele-
plant bones while the Rutland
railroad was being constructed
across the slope of Mount Holly, u
few miles south of Rutland. Never
before had the remains of a fossil
elephant been discovered in the
northern states.
Samuel Henshaw, one of the
promoters of the railroad, gave tho
tooth to Prof. Louis Agassiz, the
great Harvard naturalist, to serve
as the first specimen in the newly
opened museum. However, instead
of being placed on exhibition it
was lent to DR.. c. j. Warren Of
Boston, who had obtained the 9TH
er elephant remains and was writ
ing book on the subject of mas
todons No steps We're taken for
its return to Harvard and it re-
manned in DR.. Warrens collection.
In 1906 the Warren collection
was bought by the late j. p. Nor
gan and presented to the Museum
of Natural History of New York.
Last year Walter Grange of
the New York Museum discovered
that the tooth had originally been
presented to Harvard and really
belonged there. Thereupon the
museum authorities returned it to
Cambridge, together with pres
ent of other elephant bones.

Likes Government Bonds

Question: have about $4,000 to invest
and, having read your advice In The
Tribune, l have decided to buy government
bonds. Will you kindly tell me which Of
the issues is the best for me? win yon
also please tell me why the Equitable Life
Assurance Society offered to exchange
the first Liberty loan bonds, bearing 3a
per cent, for the next issue, that bears u
higher rate l think, A. per cent Miss
NJ. A. G.
Answer--The Liberty 3las provide in
the indenture securing the bond that
they are convertible into later issues
of higher interest rate. The Equita-
BILE in offering to convert them merely
acts as agent for the government. OF
the foreign government bonds, we think
for your purposes the United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland 511s,
due 1887, recently selling at ssh,
yielding slightly over I per cent if held
to maturity, would be the best invest
ment that you could make in foreign
bonds, although we think that Denmark,
Norway, Switzerland, etc.. bonds are
selling lower than they would if Amer
lean investors were accustomed to for
eian investments. OF the Liberties the
second or fourth ANS would probably
suit you.

tlat 1t was regarded as unlikely that
German bonds would be received by
American investors. On the otner
hand, he did not believe they would
pursue harsh or peremptory policy
in regard to these loans, instanced by
their postponement of the claims OF

ton of the bin in Congress by the

We would not suggest the exchange
of Illinois Central 80 for Erie prior
lien As. The other exchanges appear
to be all right, although market posi-
ton of bonds" is a question which
may be of interest to the active bond
traders, but for man who is making
long term investment. and whose
thought and desire should be to buy
income rather than to buy with the
hope of increase in market price. it
is not of Importance, in our opinion.
In this matter the local bond house may
have some argument that is not covered
in your letter.

you make UP better list? Safety Of

sll Of the mentioned bonds at your sug-
gest'on Would you advise me to buy low

Answer--We think that the list of
bonds you now hold is excellent and
we not suggest change. We presume
that you mean United States Steel
common; more conservative invest
ment and safer would be in United
States Steel preferred or American Car
and Foundry preferred We would not
advise the purchase of the Baltimore &
Ohio per cent bonds, but think that
the first mortgage lower coupon rate
bonds of the stronger railroad COM
panies are good investment at pres
ent prices. For instance, the Virginian
Railway first IS, due 1862 recently sell
ling at 81, at which price they yield
$40 per cent if held to maturity, are
a good investment.
