Rubles Supplant Old
Style Stage
Money

NEW YORK. Jan. 8.-Until
last night Wall Street had look
ed upon stage money as the
lowest. thing on earth. But now
the quotation on the "phoney"
stuff that the william hands the
heroine to keep quiet has gone
up. It has been found that
stage money is worth more than
Russian rubles.
A messenger, boy, than whom
there is no keener on earth,
when it comes to, finding out
what's what, was sent out to
buy some stage money. 1t was
to be used in a sort of business
sickness" test by statesmen of E.
II. du sPont de Nemours & Co.
The boy soon found that a
suitcase Of "stage money" cost
real money, but discovered he
could take away q caseful OF
Russian paper money almost
for the asking.
Each man got several million
rubles for a starter and when
the mock trading was over the
winner had $4,000, 900, rubles
and each loser had enough Rus
sian money left to paper q
three-room flat. It all cost the
messenger boy two bits.

SENATE SPLITS
ON CREDIT To
FARMS
capper and Lenroot-Anderson
Bills Win Approval Of
Committee.
By j. BART CAMPBELL.
international News Service.

The Senate win buckle, down this
week to the difficult and intricate
task of providing the country's ag-
ricultural and livestock interests
with a more liberal and elastic
credit system.
The Capper and Lenroot-Ander-
son bills, as reported favorably by
the Senate Banking and Currency
Committee, will be set : up as the
basis of such credit legislation as
farm bloc" are committed to.
VIII Force Agreement.
The more advanced Progressive
Republicans like La Toilette of Wis
consin, Norris of Nebraska, and
Brookhart Of Iowa, are expected to
insist upon legislation like the still
pending Norris. BILL but it is pre-
dicted that whatever bill is enacted
finally VIII be one ren which the
farm bloc" will force the Admin
istEation Senator's to- agree.
Considerable debate is regarded
as inevitable before a showdown is
reached, and in some quarters an
extension of the War Finance Cor
poration's farm loan powers is
about all that is expected IL La
Toilette and his associates evtnce
a disposition to fight the Lenroot-
Anderson bill.
Comparatively little opposition to
the Capper bill is anticipated, how
ever, as it is merely intended to
give Government sanction to the
system OF livestock credits already
established by Western livestock
organizations. 1t was Endorsed by
the War Finance Corporation, and
the National livestock Association.
and is only supplemental to the
Lenroot-Anderson bill.
Opposed by Secretary Mellon.
To the latter measure Secretary
Mellon has voiced vigorous opposi-
ton, although it -wos originally
heralded as u Administration
measure, and some Eastern Repub-
lican Senators who are out Of SYM
,pathy with the farm bloc" may
oppose it. It would create credits
departments in each Of the twelve
land banks with a, capitalization Of
SIG, 900 900 for each-a total Of
$120 zoo, 900, with additional authori-
zatiQn for the extension of credits
to the amount of ten times the cap
italization, or an aggregate OF
81 zoe, 200, 900.
Melons principal objection to
this scheme is that it would impose
a heavy financial obligation upon
the Government and increase taxes.
La Toilette and his associates are
expected to regard it with disfavor
because the scheme would be tied
up with the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn as well as with the Farm Loan
Bureau.
Faces Delay in House.
The House Banking and Currency
Committee still has under advise
ment a bill that would place the
extension Of farm credits entirely
with the Farm Loan Bureau.
Whatever bill is finally passed by
the Senate will have to run the
gamut of the House, and it is pre-
dictated q month at least may elapse
! before the legislation promised the
farmers is enacted, If it cam be
enacted at this session at all.

BEST CLOTHING DECORATION
Make Selection With Regard to Fit
ness for Garment and Material
on Which Used.

Materials for the decoration of cloth
ing should be selected with regard to
their fitness for the garment and the
material on which they are to be used.
Cotton dresses of the tailored type,
such as are worn in the house, on the
street, or for business need little
decoration other than machine stitch
ing, buttons, and separate collars and
cuffs of the same material or of or
candle, pique, or ~light-colored mate
rails. The dresses of sheer materials
for afternoon wear, graduation cere-
monies, and such occasions may be
very simply finished with cordings,
tiny frills of lace, ribbon girdles, and
fine net collars; a bit of color may be
introduced sometimes merely in a
string of inexpensive beads. Wool
dresses may be trimmed with buttons,
braid, or wool embroidery. With
these also may be worn separate col
lars and cuffs Of crepe georgette,
satin, organdie, net, pique, or linen.
Silk dresses for afternoon wear should
be kept as simple in type as others;
pipings, cordings, embroidery, and net,
organdie, or crepe %georgette collars
and cuffs are suitable for decoration
and finish.

PARTICULARLY
RICH IN VlTAMINS
Beef and Veal Found to Be Rela-
lively Lower, While Amount
in Lamb Varies.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Ever since the discovery Of the pres
ence in certain foods of those mysteri-
Gus beneficial substances now known
as vitamins, it has been thought that
they were to be found in animal It's
sue most abundantly in certain of the
internal organs, especially the heart,
liver and kidneys, but the bureau of
animal industry of the United States
Department of Agriculture now an
nounces that they exist in the muscle
fiber Of beef, veal, mutton, lamb and
pork, and that pork is particularly
well supplied with them.
Various cuts of the different kinds
of meat were tried, and in every in
stance pork was found to be relatively
rich in vitaminS. Pork tenderlOin,
fresh ham, smoked ham, and pressed
boiled ham were tested and the results
were much the same with all Of them.
Beef and veal were relatively lower,
while the amounts contained in lamb
varied a great deal.
The experimental work consisted in
feeding tests with rats and pigeons.
Growth was the determining factor In
the case of rats. In pigeons deficiency
of vitamins was indicated by the de-
velopment of polyneuritis, a disease to
which they are peculiarly susceptible.
This new evidence on the distribu-
ton of vitamins in meats should not
lead to the conclusion that certain
meats are of low nutritiye value be-
cause they are deficient in vitamins.
Meat is one of our most important
foods and would continue to be so even
though it contained no vitamins.

RED CROSS ADVANCING
IN HEALTH CAMP !GN
Extends Service to New Fields
and Brings Healing Hope to
Remote Sections.

1.-THE supreme opportunity for lead
ership' for the American Red Cross is
It's health service. Thus a committee
made up of prominent physicians, san
itarians and public health experts,
after months Of exhaustive study, re-
ported and urged that not only should
the Red Cross continue its present
service, but should undertake q
comprehensive educational campaign
along public health lines. The an.
nual report of the American Red
Cross, just issued, discloses that Il
has grasped this opportunity in the
fields Of public health nursing, in.
struction in home hygiene and care Of
the sick, nutrition work, first aid to
the injured and in water life-saving.
Health service Is fundamentally,
historically and practically an impor.
tant function Of the Red Cross, and
each year marks its extension into
new fields and along broader lines. In
the Red Cross Nursing Service there
are enrolled nearly 10000 nurses, TO-
900 of whom served during the World
War. The past year Red Cross nurses
were assigned to duty in isolated
sections Of Alaska and North Caro-
lima and to work among the fisher.
men of Penobscot Bay, Me.
The Public Health Nursing Service.
inaugurated by the American Red
Cross in 1912, which operates chiefly
in rural sections untouched by other
public health agencies, has 1898 Red
Cross nurses working under the d.
rection of Chapters. This work has
won so high a regard that many Of
the nurses are taken over by the local
authorities to maintain health services
for their communities. Instruction in
Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick
1914 certificates of proficiency have
been given 304,427 women who COM
pleted the Red Cross course. In the
last year 1856 certificates were
awarded and 65,9o1 students were un-
der the instruction of 1864 Red Cross
nurses.
The benefits derived from meals
balanced to meet each persons pecul-
lar needs is winning widespread rec
ognition through the work of the Red
Cross Nutrition Service, particularly
in the schools. During the school
year 2,6S8 carried on regular instruc-
ton in nutrition, reached more than
$50, 900 children and adults. More
than $3.50 volunteers assisted in this
work. Throughout the country 35,2S3
health meetings were held under Red
Cross auspices, attended by approx
mately 254,500 persons.

Annual Summons to
Red Cross Banner
On Armistice Day

Americas great humanitarian effort
in behalf Of stricken Japan early in
September gave the answer to the
question, What Is there for the Red
Cross to do in time of peace?" What
the American Red Cross did at once
when this crushing earthquake disas.
ter came without warning showed
that 1t was ready on the instant with
Countrywide team work to carry out
quickly and effectively the request Of
the President to lead the national ef-
fort for the relief of the many thou
sands Of sufferers. Preparedness to
take the field when relief is needed is
a charter duty Of the Red Cross.
Without a membership enrolled in ev.
cry community in the land this readi.
ness would be impossible. That Is
why your dollar membership Is most
important.
1t is imperative that the structure
of the American Red Cross be made
up Of millions Of individual units.
Opening Armistice Day, November II,
and closing with Thanksgiving Day,
November 20, the Roll Call this year
will penetrate to the ends Of the
earth and to the ships sailing the
seven seas. The $500 Red Cross
Chapters in the United States will
have their busy volunteers enrolling
members during this period imbued
with renewed enthusiasm due to the
recent revival Of effort when the call
came from Japan.

One OF the secrets of success in
making %doughnuts Is to use a plain
mixture such as the n given below.
A rich dough tends to absorb more fat
in frying than a palmer one. A fairly
firm dough is better than a very soft
one, although too much flour is unde-
sirable and will result in a doughnut
that is not so light and fluffy as one
would desire. 1t should be handled
lightly, but rolled smooth, for a rough
surface absorbs more fat.
Frying doughnuts in fat that is not
hot enough results in a poor, greasy
product, usually fried too long. Roll
ing and cutting the dough too thick to
cook through in a short time is a mis-
take. Failure on the part of the cook
to judge when the %doughnuts are done,
or any other cause that keeps them in
the fat too long tends to make them
greasy.
Best Frying Temperature.
A frying temperature for the fat of
1865 degrees f. was found by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
to be satisfactory. 1t should, if pos
sible, be tested with a thermometer.
Doughnuts rolled about one-fOurth
inch thick can usually be fried in
three minutes at this temperature if
they are turned to make them brown
evenly. They may be fried in one and
a half minutes if forced under the sur
face of the fat during the frying by
