That is, if we would draw diagrams

whether we are spending more than

should be able also to estimate the
rate of our spending in relation to
our incomes, and get q clear picture

The Bone That Disappeared.

Old Man Coyote.
Bowser the Hound wasn't really
hungry. He had been we'll fed that
morning and he didn't need another
mouthful. But a bone is to a Dog
very much what a stick of candy is
to little boy or girl. So as Bowser
lay in the doorway of his little house
and began to gnaw the splendid big
bone his mistress had just given him
he was perfectly happy.
1t was splendid bone. Mrs.
Brown had left enough meat cling
ing to it to make fairly good meal
And Bowser knew, too, that when he
cracked it with his strong teeth ne
would find the sweetest of marrow
inside. So Bowser was happy and 1t
seemed to him just then there could
be nothing more in the Great World
to be desired.
A shadow moved across the snow
just in front Of him; With one paw
on the bone Bowser looked up. There,
just in front of him, was that inn
pudent Coyote he had chased few
nights before! Bowser forgot the
bone. In an instant he was on his

running so fast that he was soon

Baked Apples With Rich Sauce.

Take six large, round red apples as
perfect as possible. wipe them and
remove the cores, then fill the centers
with the following mixture: Cream
one tablespoon of butter with one
cup of brown sugar, add one table
spoon of flour and one-fourth tea
spoon of powdered cinnamon and mix
well. Bake in a hot oven until soft
haste with sugar stirred into a little
hot water. There should be a rich
thick gravy around the apples when
done. They are delicious with or
without cream.

An Easy, Quick Way to Clean a
Bathtub.

Don't you find it a rather long and
tedious job to clean your bathtub
properly? Here is an easy, quick way
of doing it: Sprinkle the tub with a
cleansing powder. Rub around bit
with a cloth. Then spray with bath
spray and hot water. See how quickly
the dirt will flow away from the sides
and bottom of the tub. The small ex-
penditure for the spray will be more
than compensated for by the time and
energy saved. THE HOUSEWIFE.

grinned again and, turning, trotted
swiftly away. and he was headeo
back toward Farmer Browns.
Patiently Bowser worked on that
tangled trail. Two or three times
he made circles out around, hoping
to pick up the fresh trail in that
way. But he didn't circle quite far
enough. At last after a long. long
time he gave it up. The scent had
grown so faint that it was useless to
try longer. Slowly, for he was tired,
he trotted back toward home.
AS he drew near he remembered
that splendid bone he had left to
chase Old Man Coyote. He trotted
little faster. That bone would taste
all the better now. Straight to his

Signs Of Weakening

The hurry call sent out for alb
sentee Republican Senators and talk
in a Republican conference Of in
Producing cloture resolution are
signs of a weakening pressure for
the passage Of the tariff bill. Most
Senators know in their hearts that
the enactment Of general tariff
bill at the present time is a leap
in the dark which involves political
disaster. The most casual glance
at history confirms the view that to
act just before election is to take
grave risks. The Mckinley bill of
1890 and the Wilson-Gorman bill
of 1894, to mention no others, tes-
tify to the peril of upsetting tariff
schedules and then going at once to
the country for q verdict.
The Fordney- -McCumber bill has
less genuine support behind it than
any Of the earlier tariff revisions
had. They responded to a vigor-
Gus party conviction, mistaken or
otherwise. But the present bill re-
spends to no general conviction or
patent emergency. Congress has al
ready passed an emergency tariff
bill which has mitigated most of
the evil effects Of postwar depres-
sion and REIMBURSEMENT so far as
tariff legislation could mitigate
them. A permanent revision ought
to wait until economic conditions
take on something like an appear
ance of permanency. There is no
rush for an upward balancing of
rates, which may do more harm than
good. The situation in commerce
and industry, both here and abroad,
is unstabilized. More than that, the
Fordney- McCumber bill is an undi-
gested bill. 1t lacks the scientific
character which an after the-war
tariff bill, breaking new ground,
ought to have
The Senate can do the Republican
party and the country a service by
postponing tariff legislation until
conditions clear up and the publc's
real interest in the venture which
Mr., Fordney and Nh McCumber
have in hand can be more Satisfac-
torily determined.

The Kingdom Cullen Ouerthrew By Jane, L. Ford

The death of Edgar NJ. Cullen, for
more than thirty years a Supreme
Court Justice in Brooklyn, recalls the
important part he played in the over
throw of John Y. McKane, the ruler of
the opera bouffe kingdom of Coney
Island.
1t was customary in those days to
call McKane the Gear of Gravesend,"
but it would be nearer the truth to
call him the Louis Napoleon of domain
that resembled in miniature and in
cruder form the one that fourished so
many years on foundations whose
fragile nature was unsuspectcd OF the
time and which has gone down into
Viewed through the spectacles Of later
years one notes close resemblance be-
tween the two empires and their rulers,
though each one acquired power by
different method, the one by the
gradual acquisition for himself and his
henchman of all the important political
tiices in Gravesend, the other through
coup detat that startled all Europe
But whereas the one owed his throne
and sccpter entirely to his own efforts
and genius in political leadership. the
ether was aided by half brother, in
many respects greater than himself.
With the reins Of power grasped
firmly in their hands it may be said of
both men that they ruled despotically
and that each owed his final debacle

The Wisest Course

Implicit public confidence in the
administration of the criminal law
is OF the utmost Importance. A sus
plcion that the poor will be treated
differently from the rich gives the
demagogue his opportunity
Until young Ward, who confessed
to killing Clarence Peters on the
Kensico Road, was rearrested and
his bail cancelled, hundreds of citi-
zens and some of the newspapers of
Wcstchester County insisted that
his wealth had secured him his lib
erty pending full investigation of
his story.
Ihe fact that the young mans
story lacked convincing corroborat-
ing evidence and that in some de-
tails it was not quite plausible gave
color to this opinion.
In canceling Wards bail bond
and ordering his arrest District At
torney Weeks took wise course
lie corrected what was widely held
to be the mistake of the Sheriff in
accepting bail so promptly and
quoted the awakening suspicion that
In Westchestcr County there is one
law for the rich and another for
the poor.
1t IS the duty of grand jury to
bring to light the facts of this still
puzzling tragedy. Meanwhile the
man who has admitted that he did
the killing must endure confinement

he cannot jury will have to de-
termlne his guilt or innocence.
