IRISH GOVERNMENT
 GOES ON AS BEFORE
Both Griffith and Collins Left In- structions-Assassin Quits Reb-
 els, Joins Free Staters.

Dublin, Aug 25. (By Associated Press) The body of Michael Collins lay on its bier in Dublin city hall to- 1 day. while scrrowing 1rishmen of all classes and creeds filed past for a last look at the features, set in the look of determined defiance with which the free state commanders in chief faced his foes to the end.
 The flag covered coffin which ar rived from Cork yesterday was first removed to St. Vincents hospital 1 where Arthur Griffith died so re- gently and then, last night to the city hall where the body will lie in state until Sunday The funeral has been set for Monday morning with solemn high requiem mass in the pro-cathe- dral, and interment in Glasnevin cemetery.
 It has been announced that the government will be continued along the exact lines laid down by Collins and Griffith and those left in charge William Cosgrove and Richard Null cahy have expressed their determina- ton to see the free state for which the two lost leaders worked so inde- fatigibly set on a firm foundation.
 Mulcahy succeeds Collins as com mander-in in-chief of the national army and Cosgrove is acting as head of the government. What actual changes will be made in the ministry is unknown and the Dali Eireann session set for Saturday has been postponed.
 Meanwhile word comes from Cork .l
 buscade near Bandon in which Col lins was killed and who accepts re- sponsibility for the generals death, has abandoned the rebel cause offer ing his services to the free state. It is thought this act of contrition may be emulated by others engaged in the irregulars' campaign of guerrilla war fare.

Continual Din From Movie Theater
 Annoys Prisoners At Bronx

New York. Aug. 25.-The reason for the over wrought nerves of the prisoners confined in the Bronx pris- on causing them to yell. rattle tin pans and raise regular din at very irregular intervals, has been traced by Sheriff E. J. Flynn He declares that snatches or music from an ad- joining theater organ playing continu- ously from II to II daily are re- sponsible.
 The music could be heard only brokenly because of the peculiar acoustic properties of the prisons walls which. permitted only bits of the music to penetrate.

Your Health
Death Rate Takes Slump

Death Rate Takes Slump
Nineteen twenty-one was the
healthiest year in the United States
and Canada yet recorded.
This, according to statistics COM
piled by one of our greatest insur-
ance companies having nearly a.
0O0, 900 industrial policy-holders.
This group constitutes approx
mately one-eighth of the total popu-
lation of the two countries and prob
ably not less than one-Quarter of hat
in the cities.
The death rate attained the low
figure of s.64 per 1000 lives. This Is
1871 per cent lower than the 1920
death rate which in turn marked the
minimum recorded up to hat time.
1t is 31.s per cent lower than was
the rate for 1911. Just what these
figures mean in actual saving OF life
is best shown by the fact that IL
the 1890 death rate had prevailed in
1921, 1861 more would have died;
If the 1911 death rate had prevailed,
54,942 more deaths would have &C.
CURED.
The decline in the 1921 death rate
was accomplished largely through
auctions in the death rates for tuber-
~culosis, pneumonia and influenza.
Lower mortality from Bright's dis
lease, childbirth conditions, and acci-
dents contributed in somewhat lesser
degree.
In eleven years the death rate
from tuberculosis has been cut In
half. This in itself is an unparal-
leled accomplishment In the history
of public health. But more amaz-
ing still is the fact that the decline
Is continuing al an increasing rate
from year to year.
The outstanding fact in the health
situation for 1921 is that health con-
servation work results in greatly re-
duced sickness and death rates.
There has been . drop of virtually
one-third in the death rate In the
eleven-vear period.
This is q magnificent promise for
the future. Humanitarians, physi-
clans, public health workers can see
In the crystal of these statistics the
great reward for years OF discourage
ing efforts at health conservation.
Many years of tireless work in this
direction Is bearing fruit. And the
most encouraging part about the
whole thing Is that public health
work has by no means exhausted Its
possibilities for life saving.
The death rates for q number of
the more important causes show
marked capacity for further decline.

WILL SHE WEAR THEM?
Knickerbockers Are on the Market but Wearers Are
Wary of Trying Them Out

What will American women do
with knickerbockers?
Every smart shop on Fifth
avenue displays them. a good many
smart women have been wearing
them, with apparent pleasure.
But not enough women, the coun-
try over, have yet adopted them to
establish them firmly as q real
vogue.
And one wonders why, for there
is no garment made which, when
worn with smart accessories, Is so
delightfully."- jaunty looking. And 1t
is a fact that when q woman knows
she looks jaunty she automatically
feels young. .
That they will, in another season
or two, be really popular. Is implied
in a recent utterance of Gene STRAIT
ton Porter, Americas most popular
woman writer. Although not def
nitely discussing Knockers at the
time, Mrs. Porter wore Knockers her.

Among a world of other tardy
realizations the world has come to
realize that every woman has two
legs and that these legs in all proba-
bility are proportionate to the re-
mainder of her Frame" said Mrs.
Porter.
There is no longer any curiosity
concerning legs; they are absolutely
prevalent-as common as arms or
heads. And the world has cQnsented
that she may cover them with skirts.
breeches or Turkish trousers, as she
pleases."
AS she p%leases!
Then why does she hesitate to
adopt the jaunty, comfortable. emf
nently sensible, yet ultra smart
Knockers?
Apparently she is still wondering
whether or not they make her look
too boyish. Will they destroy her
feminine appeal? That. one fancies,
is the question which gives her
pause.

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

Strawberries for canning should
be perfectly ripe, firm fruit. Over
ripe fruit loses its shape when can
ned and II less likely to keep well.
Look the berries over very care
fully, cutting out bruised or soft
spots and sorting the fruit. Use the
whole perfect berries for canning
and sunshine preserves and the small
cut fruit for jam and marmalade.
Canned Strawberries
This rule is for plain berries
canned for table use. The proper
tons are calculated to suit the
woman who is not equipped to can
a large quantity at one time. =
This method is a little different
from the usual cold pack, but is a
Six quarts berries, 8 cups cane
sugar. 1 cup boiling water.
Wash and hull berries. Fill COL
ander with berries and dip in a
large pan of boiling water. Remove
Instantly and dip in a pan Of cold
water. =
This quick blanching helps the
berries to keep their shape during
processing and insures against loss
due to too much acidity in the fruit.
Pack two quarts Of berries in one
quart jar. The berries are packed
just as tightly as possible without
crushing.
The jars and covers must be ster-
ilized thoroughly before filing. Boil
the sugar and water until a thick
strip is made.
Pour this heavy strip over the
fruit, filling the cans to within three
quarters of an inch. Adjust rubber
and half Srravy an ton p,rf In hnf
water bath and boil half an hour.
Count the time after the water starts
boiling.
The water must cover the tops OF
the jars. When the water has boiled
just 80 minutes remove from water
and cool as quickly as possible.
Be careful not to put the cans in
a draft, for cold air striking the hot
jars in m spot will break them.
Tighten tops and turn upside down
to cool. Store in a dark, cool, dry
place.
When dipping the berries in the
pan of boiling water do not let the
fruit remain a minute in the water.
Dip in and right out and immediate
ly into the cold water.
Open Kettle Method
Do not cook more than enough to

sugar and one-half cup water in
smooth stewpan. When boiling add
berries and boil eight minutes. Use
two quarts of berries for each quart
can.
Fill sterilized jars with berries and
add juice to cover fruit and fill can
to OVERLOOKING. The fruit and juice
must be boiling when put into the
can and the can must be perfectly
full to exclude all air.
If these two things are overlooked
the fruit will not keep. More juice
is formed when the open kettle
method is used than when fruit IL
canned by the cold pack method.
Any juice left from the first al
of fruit should be used for the sec
ond can. Add one cup of sugar and
enough water to make one-half cup.
Juice left after all the fruit is
canned should be sealed while boil
ing and saved.
This juice can be used in drinks or
combined with red raspberries or
rhubarb in jelly or marmalade.
