rHE srRrKE IossEs.

Attention is being called to the fact that the strike cost the coal miners a million dollars, some of which was Dor rowed money but they are perfectly aware of the fact that the cost ran much higher than that. They were idle from the first of April and that means their labor and even though they have succeeded in obtaining continuance of their old wages they have lost so heav- fly through being out of work that the benefit gained in the retention of the old wage for the next year will be badly eaten into because of the lost wages.
 With the shopmen the situation is even worse. They are going back to work at the reduction of wages which was fixed by the railroad labor board, a wage that they might have been getting the benefit from for the past several months had they been willing to accept the award of the board which had judged them according to the facts in the case.
 In one instance though an increase in wages was asked the old wage is re- tained. In the other a reduction of wages goes into effect but because of the metnodS pursued Tn deallng With these matters by the strikers they have experienced the loss of millions of dol lars in wages to say nothing of the loss which they have caused others to suffer.
 Tn connection with the coal strike it is the claim of one Illinois operator that the cost of the strike placed on the op- orators must be passed along to the con sumner. Otherwise he claims they could not continue to do business. That how ever, is something which is not permit ted in the case of railroad operation f7r the roads have had their rates hxtd by federal commission and even ex- perienced a cut. therein just before the reduction in wages for the railroad men was ordered. The railroads, however, must continue to do business and 1t is to be hoped that as the result of the in- quiry into the coal industry thet he idea of passing every expense along to the public will get proper consideration. The situation is one which goes to show that. Governor Allen of Kansas knows what he is talking about when he says that the public doesn't get mad often enough,

SUGGESTIONS s FOR
HE HOUSEWIFE

 < THE HOUSEWIFE.
 A use for pieces of old carpet IS as a backing for thin slip mats.
 Fine ashes, moistened with a little turpentine are an economical and ef- fective cleaner for steel and brass.
 Stains on knife handles, if not of too long standing, can be removed by rubbing them with little salt and vinegar.
 A broken gas mantle, crushed to q powder, is excellent for polishing up pieces of JeweIry.
 Bedroom basins and jugs often get badly stained. If the marks are rub bed with a damp cloth dipped in salt they will disappear.
 Never return the contents of tin cans to the cans again once they are opened.
 Tn making a fruit salad be sure to use silver knife for cutting up the fruit
 Fried clans on toast are an excel lent breakfast or luncheon dish.
 Cheap eggs are never cheap; 1t is always best to buy the freshest and feel sure Of them.
 People who live near the water should make fish large part of their summer diet.
 To make iced coffee take a quart of hot strong coffee, add a pint of scalding milk, sweeten and cool. Serve in glasses one-third full of shaved ice.
 Cold corned beef is a good meat for summer luncheons or even dinners; it provides the hearty ingredient of meal and yet is not heavy nor over heating.
 Wrap fish in oiled paper and it IS not so likely to impart a flavor to oth- CT foods nor an ordor to the refrigera- tor.
 Sponge cake is good favored with two .teaspoonfuls of vanilla, two of lemon juice and three of orange juice.
 Potatoes will bake in a much short CT time if, after washing. they are all lowed to stand in boiling water ten or fifteen minutes.
 If few drops of lemon juice are squeezed into the food chopper be- fore grinding raisins or other sticky substances the fruit will not stick to the grinder

coarMANpER BooTH.s REcALG.

In every community where there is a branch of the Salvation Army It Is known that the leaders come and go without anyone really knowing just the why or the wherefore. It is a case of receiving orders and obeying. That seems to be the case in connection with the order which has come to the effect that Commander Evangeline Booth has been recalled as commander of the cr- gsnization in this country. To her, per haps less than the rest of the country, does this come as surprise. It is an instance in connection with the running ot this great humanitarian organization that hasn't been explained as fully as those interested might like. It doesn't appear that there Is any good reason for the change It Is magnificent ser vice that she has rendered in the direc- tion of the American Salvation Army and such service usually calls for con tinuance.
 More win be known in time what the circumstances are surrounding it, why she is being removed from position which she might well continue for many years in spite of it's large growth and where It Is figured she can do a bigger work than Is being rendered here.
 One intimaton for the change lies in Inc statement made to the effect tha- her brother, General Booth, had de- eiared that she couldn't expect to carry on the work indefinitely. This is open to the interpretation that in view If tse steadily increasing responsibilities 1t was too much for one head and one pair of hands. This seems to be borne out by the statement that the American command will henceforth be vested n three commissioners to be guided di- rectiy from the headquarters of the army in England.
 when Evangelins Booth declares that she will comply with whatever the de- cision Is and that she is sorry that she didn't have a better best to give 1t can not be regarded that the best she has given has failed to meet requirements. It has in fact been a best both as 10 de- votion and Accomplishments which will stand to her everlasting credit

A NEEDED LAW.

b
 From time to time efforts which have been started in behalf. of. anti-lynching laws have been sidetracked for one req son or another. New and sufficient req sons have been furnished for the enact ment of such law at this session of congress. The Dyer anti-lynching bnl has received favorable committee ac- tion and 1t has even been advanced to the point where the steering committee of the senate has placed it on the pro gramme of things to be done.
 Such efforts as have been undertaken in the states have proved to be entirely inadequate in the very commonwealths where lynching Is the worst. Those who are disposed to disregard law and order are in control in some states to the ex- tent that those who believe otherwise are powerless. The situation is much the same as it was at Herrin, H., where the town and county was so completely dominated by the mining. element that the authorities were controlled and e. fused to live up to the oath of their cf- flee
 The importance Of state control can not be too greatly emphasized but when it gets to the point that the states are not giving the protection to humanity which they are promised under. the Con stitution it Is time that the federal gov ernment was given the authority to act and show that Its pledges amount .c something.
 If the states would live up to their responsibilities and see that there was an enforcement of law and order there would be no need of federal action. and 1t is only because some of them do moi that ana-lynching legislation has beer found to be necessary.

A SUN BATH

When possible sit in the sunshine for your hair to dry, letting the warm rays penetrate by lifting the hair and shaking it out.
 You should be careful not to allow sea water to reach your hair while bathing. Not only is it very sticky to the touch afterwards. but the brine is inclined to bleach it and causes it to fall out,
 If you cannot avoid getting your hair wet, it should be thoroughly sham pooed as soon after bathing as possi- ble, before exposure to the sunlight dries the brine into it.
 For hair dry and brittle from sea water it is a good plan to add a tea spoonful of oil of sweet almond or olive oil to the egg shampoos, beat ing 1t all up together before massag ing the scalp and lathering the hair thoroughly with the mixture.
 Bathing in fresh water is not injuri- ous, but it is advisable to give the hair good brushing afterwards and to apply brilliantine or other brightening lotion

USE oF WovEN srRLpEs

The use of woven stripes in differ ent designs is interesting on hand kerchiefs. Two fairly wide stripes are featured on one model. These cross at the corners Others have number of single thread stripes, while still others feature very broad woven stripes. The hems on these kerchiefs are hand rolled.
 Color is used a little more delicate ly here than other places, but is very effective, One handkerchief has bor- der inside the hem which runs near the corner and stops, the hem at the corner becoming colored. Embroidery in a simple scroll design in color, and in little white flowers, fills up the space between the inside borders. An other number uses little colored bars alternating Horizontal and vertical.
 Black stripes are printed on colored linen, which Is woven with a little thread stripe in self color.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Credit for the establishment of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines. which is to be opened for the reception of students today, is due large ly to Charles E. Bunnell, who has been appointed president of the institution.

Judge Bunnell is one of the pioneer educational workers of Alaska. He holds the degree of A. H. from Bucknell College, and has been in Alaska for more than twenty years.

 a great favorite.
 Very pale silver stockings and shoes to match are being worn at formal dances with frocks of brilliant colors as well as with those of pastel tints. The silver sheen looks equally well with either type of coloring.

HINTS TO COOKS

When making sherbets or ices, try adding two tablespoonfuls of whipped cream and the stiffly whipped white of an egg to every quart. The ex- pense is slight and the taste and ap- pearance are improved greatly. A tea spoonful of granulated gelatin is also a good addition to each quart of the liquid. Be sure that the mixture Is sweet enough. If too little sugar is used the cream becomes 1umpy and icy.
 When making cocoa try beating it with an egg beater just before it comes to boil This will remove any tiny flecks of chocolate and render 1t smooth. Also call on the useful beater if your custard mixture curdles.
 It may not be an infallible rule, but nine times out of ten you will have a smooth custard in place of most unpalatab1e one.
