APPEAL IS MADE FOR RELEASE OF
 MARY MAG SWINEY

Dublin. Nov. 16-(I. N. S.J-Ths Dublin Municipal corporation today appealed to the free state government to reiease Miss aMry MacSwiney, who has been on a hunger strike since she was arrested in a raid upon Re- publican war council in this city on November fourth.
 The doctors at Mount Joy prison re- fuse to give any information about Miss MacSwiney's condition. Her friends claim that she is in such q serious state that death may be ex- pected at any hour. This is denied by the prison auth horities.
 At Mount Joy prison it was said that Miss aMcSwfney is a military prisoner and therefore visitors are not allowed to see her.
 A number of women supporters of the Republican irregulars are con- curtiug daily demonstrations in favor of Miss MacSwiney's release and some public bodies are not taking up her canse.
 Miss MacSwiney is sister of the iate Terence MacSwiney. Lord Mayor of Cork, who starved himself to death In BrlSton jail, London, two years ago.

SECRETS OF COOKING BACON
To Fry Until Thoroughly Delicious and
Crisp, Though Unburned, Is Not
Difficult.

Frying bacon so that ii Is thorough
ly delicious and crisp, though un-
burned, is not such a hard thing to
accomplish as has sometimes been
supposed. According TO the office Of
home economies of the United States
Department Of Agriculture, 1t makes
no difference whether the cooking Is
fast or slow, and to keep pouring off
the fat as II tries out Is more work
than is really necessary for a perfect
ly good result.
Frying bacon so that Ii Is crisp is
chiefly a matter Of getting the water
and excess fat out OF it. In order not
to burn it, n should be very careful
that neither the bacon nor the fat In
the pan becomes overheated. Through
out the process the fat should remain
q light brown color and should not be
allowed to get dark brown. 1t is
easier to cook bacon slowly than to
cook II fast, because II is easier to
keep the fat a uniform pale color when
one takes plenty Of time for the
task. /.
Bacon to be crisp does not need to
drain while 1t Is cooking. 1t can even
be fried In deep fat with excellent re-
suits. After II is cooked and before
IL is taken from the pan 1t should
be thoroughly drained while still hot /;
then II should be served at ono

REMEDY AGAINST LAWN ANTS
EntomoIogists Recommend Drenching
Nests With Boiling Water
or Using Kerosene.

To get rid of lawn ants entomolo-
g!sts Of the United States Department
Of Agriculture suggest %drenching the
nests with boiling water or pouring In
a small quantity of kerosene oil. Sim
liar treatment may be applied to nests
between or beneath paving stones.
Spraying the lawn with kerosene
emulsion or with very strong soap
wash is also recommended. For large
ant nests disulphid of carbon injected
into the nest by means of an oil can
or small syringe is recommended to
XIII the ants. The fumes of dlsulphid
Of carbon have a very disagreeble
odor and are infiammable, but they
are not injurious to higher animals in
the open air.

The artificial induction Of painless

The Chinese were acquainted with
general anesthesia thousands Of
years ago. II Is related of Surgeon
Hoathe In the Third century A. ID. that
he performed amputation, trephining

Doctor Browne relates two cases Of
anesthesia taken from a Persian
manuscript. The first story concerns
Aristotle and an Indian surgeon named
Sarnab. An earwig had entered the
patients ear and attached itself to
the brain. Aristotle gave the patient
the drug so that he became uncon-

skull. This was excellent treatment.
