CHAUNCEY DEPEw.

Chauncey Depew isn't playing the i'm portant part that he did in politics and civic affairs that he did when a younger man, but he is nevertheless closely in touch with affairs of the day and mental ly active and robust even though he has just passed his SSth anniversary of his birth. From a humble beginning he has risen to a figure of commanding promi- hence, dimmed somewhat by the weight of years, but by no means eclipsed. He han played a signal part in the affairs of his own state and in representing his state at Washington, and wherever refe@- ence is made to the brilliant minds and witty extemporaneous speakers Depew still holds place in the first ranks
 Depew has fully developed the faculty of making friends both by his words and acts. It has been one of his lifelong characteristics, and yet such has not served to warp keen, observing mind and the faculty of clearly and pointedly presenting his views and ideas
 With the same spirit of optimism that has always been displayed by him, he ex- presses today that same confidence that the world will emerge from it's difficult ties all right, quite the same as he would have done several decades ago. Because of his leadership. his words of cheer and confidence, his inspiring example more than his immediate circle of friends will offer congratulations as he reaches his new milestone and bespeak many more for him. The country has long since re- alized that there is only one Depew.

THE soYIETs, GAME.

Soviet leaders have been playing a master hand at the Genoa conference. They have been making demands and presenting situations which were unques- tionably for the purpose of bartering since they must have realized that they could never have brought the other na- tions to their views. but in the modifca- ton of their aims they do not appear to have left themselves in any way serious ly impaired
 The purpose of the soviets for a long time has been to get recognition of their government, and surprls1ng as it may seem in view of such doctrine as they have been preaching, to get some money. They have gone to Genoa for that pur- pose and it must be said that they seem to be making favorable progress.
 When the policy of Lloyd George in connection with Genoa and the Russians came up in the house of commons re- gently it is remembered that he was given a vote of confidence, after he had de- clared in favor of recognition of the so- viet government with the proviso that the bolsheyiBi should be put on probation for year to see how they behaved and that
 
 opportunity for another opportunity at the end of that probationary period to vote on the matter.
 There was thus more or less encour- agegent given to the Russians and as matters have developed they are willing to promise to pay all the. debts of Russia provided they are given recognition. an- other loan and a stay of 15 years before being required to pay on the debts.
 There are features about it that look like play in the dark. It is possible for many things to happen in Is years, for the new loan to go the way of the old ones and for the repudiation of all promises. What is going to be done must revolve about the reliance that the na- tions believe can be placed in the soviet government and it looks as if Russia was just now telling the others that Germany is willing to take the chance. The world, however, cannot help feeling that the bolsheviki come the nearest to displaying sanity when their funds are the lowest rather than when they are flush.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY

There are few who seem to realize that the condition of the arms is an indication of the state of the general health and that it is imposs- -bIe to possess a beautiful arm if the health is neglected.
 It's a funny thing but people never give their eyes a thought unless they have trouble with them. A person couldn't run or walk all day long with out giving his legs a rest. A woman wouldn't sew all day long without stopping for a few moments to rest her hands. And still people will work their eyes all day without ever closing them for an instant
 One whose circulation is poor from insufficient exercise and sedentary habits will have red arms, while im- proper diet will have as harmful eff feet upon the skin of the arms as it does upon the complexion. Much can be done by judicious exercise to inn prove both.
 The skin must be cared for as ten derly as a flower. Various changes in the weather, especially sudden changes from mild to xtremely cold tempera- ture, have a whitening effect upon the skin, and when subjected to prolonged exposure to cold weather the normal action of the former is checked.

SUGGESTIONS FOR


 THE HOUSEWIFE If the palm leaf fans become soil ed wipe them off with cloth damp ened in soapy water.
 Pumpkin chips can be made just as orange peel is candied. They are good served with tea and cakes. Add a few drops of vanilla to the coffee tomorrow morning. It gives rather new and pleasing taste.
 A little lemon juice added to the prunes as they are being stewed adds delightful tang to their flavor. When the cheese becomes too dry for ordinary purposes it will do nice ly for grating over escalloped foods Whipped cream will remain stiff if one teaspoon of dissolved gelatine is whipped into one-half pint of whip ping cream.
 The best frying pan has a sloping shallow side. Then an omelet can be rolled off it when cooked, instead of being lifted and broken.
 One can have the hands in soap suds with soft soap without injury to the skin if the hands are dipped in vinegar or lemon juice immediately after. Curtain rods can be run through curtains easily if thimble is put on the end of the rod.
 Put dry lye at the opening of the waste pipes and then pour boiling water over it. This cIeanses the pipe and destroys all odors.
 Put two cookies together with mash mallow whip or ground figs and the kiddies will have a welcome surprise in their lunch boxes

eighth teaspoon salt and two cups of full milk. Flavor with two tablespoons of sirup drained from jar of preserv- ed ginger. Strain into buttered GUS tard cups, set cups in a shallow pan of hot water and bake in moderately hot oven until firm in the centers (about twenty mfnutes). Do not al tow the water in the pan to reach the boiling point during baking, as it will curdle the custard. Remove from oven. Chill and unmold on a cold serv- ing platter and garn.sh with bits of finely cut (not chopped) preserved gin ger.
 Stuffed Eggs-Hard cook six fresh eggs. Chill and remove the shells Cut eggs in halves lengthwise, remove the yolks and set the whites aside in pairs. Mash yolks and rub through a sieve; add one-half cup of finely ground lean cooked smoked ham, one teaspoon of French mustard, one-half teaspoon salt, few grains of cayenne and enough mayonnaise dressing to make of the consistency to handle. Roll in balls and refill white or refill whites with mixture, spread evenly with edges of whites, put together in pairs and wrap eggs in squares of waxed paper, twist the ends securely and pack in the motor lunch basket. The remainder of mixture may be used as sandwich filling.

DRY SHAMPOO THIS WAY

Dry shampoos are so convenient when ones away from home or wash ing can't be managed. But simple as they are, they nod doing properly to get the best results.
 You'll ind p-eae hints very helpful.
 Always apply a dry shampoo over night. Then it will have proper time to absorb the grease and dust in the hair. If you think of it at the last minute when dressing, and only leave it in for a short while, the powder will stick to the grease instead of absorbing it.
 Resu1tF-you hair clogs, and it's almost impossible to get all the sham poo out. That means dull and life less look instead of a fresh sheen.
 Don't put the shampoo directly on the hair, but make half a dozen part ings, and apply the powder along them, with small bits of perfectly clean cot tonwool.
 Then in the morning the thorough brushing you give your hair eof course with 8 newly washed brush) will dis tribute the shampoo right through the hair from the roots to the tips, and finally brush it and the grease all out.
 At a pinch, if you haven't any dry shampoo in the house, face powder will give quite good results.

makes it's next trip it will be under it's new name.
 It was by no means a simple task which the shipping board faced in the re- naming of vessels. When it was seen that there were not enough to complete the list there was seen the opportunity of doubling up for the present at least the two Adamses and the Harrisons and when it came to deciding which would have to be left out it was a case of pick ing those who had moved into the presi dency from the vice presidency. Such were John Tyler, Willard Fillmore and Andrew Johnson, two democrats and a republican, while there is one elected president, James Buchanan, who will have a ship named after him at some future date.
 How long the wait will be it is impos- slble to tell. In the case of Buchanan it is realized that he was the best one among the democrats to keep on the waiting list while among the republicans the delay in connection with Andrew Johnson will probably not cause much i'll feeling inasmuch as he was the presi- dent they wanted to imLeach.
 It was a case of/ course where the boards Judgment had to be exercised however, and there is not likely to be much opposition to their decision as to those who must wait.

PROVIDING BONUS FUNDS.

In the move 10 put over the bonus leg lslation regardless of the opposition there is now being advanced the idea of issuing treasury certificates just as if that would provide a means of obtaining money without involving taxation in any way. the idea apparently being that the people will not know that these certi- hcates of indebtedness must be paid and the interest on them while they exist must be provided for. The issuance of slch certificates doesn't mean that the government obtains any amount of mon ey by simply handing out some slips of paper and reaching over into some imag- mary pile of money and taking out what is wanted without being obliged to pay it back
 But when it comes to the matter of re- paying these certificates there are those who are pointing to the fact that it will not be long before Great Britain will be paying us interest on what it owes. This will run into nine figures and more than provide for what is proposed to obtain through the certificates. That of course is a return to that old idea of employing the foreign debt or interest to pay the bonus when as a matter of fact that money is needed to pay of the obliga- tions of the government to the people of this country and meet the interest there on.
 The fact that there might be but a lit tie over S10O, ,OO0 900 needed for the pro- posed certificates and the expected inter est payment from Great Britain might amount to s2O0, 900 900 doesn't mean that we could pay the bonus and have $10o,- 900 900 left without greatly increasing our own floating debt or taxation. When Secretary Mellon last week pointed out that at the close of the 1923 fiscal year there promised to be @ deficit of S4S4,- 00O000 as the situation now stands, that estimate was given only after he had in- c!uded the s20O,OOO 900 British payment in the estimated revenue. Thus to use it or half of 1t for other purposes would simply mean the increasing of the debt at the close of the year by that amount, and involve the imposition of just that much greater tax in some form to meet it provided we still considered it advis- able to stop plunging headlong into debt.
 When our revenue is not sufficient to meet necessary requirements we cannot toss out morey right and left without the man who pays the taxes providing 1t sooner or later.

Cotton thread is better than silk for Tnending kid gloves. The silk is very liable to cut the kid. Cotton does not,
 Putting monograms on linen is an easy matter if the part of the linen to be marked has been starched and ironed very smoothly.
 Wedgwood blue ribbon at the bot tom of your beige colored net win dow curtains will be a lovely touch in the room with the Wedgwood blue rung. Sometimes these ribbons are simply run through the hens and all lowed to hang on either side in un- even lengths.
 If the cretonne curtains are faded after being washed iron them and while they are still warm go over the design with wax crayons, light ly where the color was delicate and using more color where it was deeper. Then using a paper over them, iron them once more. The effects is quite like new.
 Possibly you are one of the women who bought a one-piece serge dress which opened down the side? If it isn't worn out and you're looking for some way to bring it up to date, have it cleaned and then buy some canton crepe of harmonizing or contrasting tone and put a bias piece about eight inches wide from the neck to hem line at the side where the gown fastens. This cascade effect is being used on the newest frockS.

NAMING THE SHIPS

The idea of naming the liners that are under the control of the shipping board Tor the presidents who have served this country wasn't bad one. The one great difficulty seems to be that there are not enough such ships at the present time to provide for the use of all the list of hon. pred names
 Two vessels happen to be so named that they win not have to be rechristen- ed. They are the America and George Washington but the others will hence forth bear the names of presidents inso- far as is now possible. Time is in fact what seems necessary in order to havt the list completed.
 It was to be expected that the bes, known Of the vessels as well as the larg- est, the Leviathan, should be named President Harding. This former Germar vessel is now undergoing extensive and expensive changes that will make t pos sfble for t to be restored to the transat. lautaa passenger ssrviee and when il

HOW skIRrs ARE MADE.

Skirts are on straight lines, but often have a good deal of width con cealed about them, and plating is generously used, usually in groups at the sides, and there are many entirely kilted plaited skirts, and box plaits are favored.
 Panel effects in skirts are numerous, and some houses like the effect of a tiered skirt. Though skirt lengths for morning wear vary considerably, it may be said in general that they re- main of sufficient shortness to be practical The plainer the suit, tho shorter the skirt is a good and general rule. The circular cut is not much favored, though here and there some designer has used it, especially in frocks of draped tendencies, which often have an effect of circular flare at the side
