Their Merits.

When nearly nineteen centuries

which the walls were decorated with

When, centuries later, Pompeii

Good Combination
1t is this combination Of art and
durability that makes the painted
wall today as popular as 1t was in
ancient times, and such interior
decorating and painting as is done
by E. P. Long, 205 E. Ohio St, de.
serves to be recognized as dis
tinctly artistic contribution to
modern home building.
Long has been recognized as one
of the leading painters and interior

The substantial growth of his

him to open the downtown show

AMERICANS IN PARIS
TIRE OF FRENCH COOKS
Starving for Home Dishes Despite
Fact That City Claims Finest

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
PARIS, November 1s.-Although
Europe may boast the best cooks in all
the world, hundreds of Americans
here are starving for American dishes.
Even the American woman who
diets has her troubles. For European
chefs have not learned how to make
that extremely thin and brittle toast
which enables one TO give pretense
of eating.
In France sauces and butter and
-four used as ingredients in the cui-
sine are terrible enemies To the waist
line. In England boiled unseasoned
vegetables offer little temptation to
the palate. No medals can be award
ed in Italy and Germany, for no wom-
an who wants to wear fashiona bic
spaghetti or ravioli. Wine and beer
do not go with the slender boylike
figure.
Follow party of American tour
lists, or go to a luncheon of American
business men, or to gathering of
American women. and hear these
pleas and complaints:
My kingdom for some cornbread." "

brown waffies with Vermont maple

"Oh. for some real buckwheat
cakes"
When a Frenchman can cook
chicken in $50 different ways. why
can't he fry ii like we do at home?'
The cook who learns how to make
corn fritters in Paris will make his
fortune"
And to cap the situation, French

Poison Trappers.

Advices from Massachusetts, tell us
that a tract Of about 75 square miles
in that State has been literally sowed
with poison capsules by persons de-
sirous of killing fur-bearing animals.
Two men caught in the act were ar
rested by a game warden. A. joint
committee of the Legislature has
voted to report a bin making such
poisoning of animals punishable by
Jail sentences, the present penalty
being only fine.
Fur trapping at its best is cruel

going over his line at intervals, gets

scavengers can find them. All sorts

new corporation to be formed, in
which the Government should have
control of the board of trustees. The
Dollar bid was for a payment of $5,-
625,000 for the five ships, which cost
the Government in the neighborhood
of $30,000,0OO. This line was being
operated by the Pacific Mail at no
loss to the Government; in fact, at a
gain. There was no need, therefore,
to sell the ships at a great sacrifice in
price. But the majority of the board
believed that the mandate Of the Jones
law-to put the Government ships
into private hands and to get the
Government out Of the shipping bust
ness at the least possible loss to the
Government-would be met by the ac-
ceptance of the Dollar bid.
Members of the Shipping Board who
voted against the Dollar bid Were op-
posed also to the Pacific Mail bid.
They believed that the Government
should not sell these ships at so great
a sacrifice in price to any one, when
the boats were paying. Undoubtedly
the sale Of the ships will lead to con-
siderable controversy, and to an air
ing of the matter in Congress.
The Dollar Co. has been for some
time operating five other Government
ships out of Puget Sound to the same
Far Eastern ports which are served
by the ships just purchased and which
are to run from San Francisco. 1t
the Government of these ships out Of
Puget Sound. We have the singular
prospect, therefore, Of the same COM
pany operating its own ships with one
hand and the Governments ships
with the other on competing routes.
For these are competing routes, the
commerce and passengers carried
from this country to the Orient orig
mating not alone in the San Fran
cisco and Puget Sound districts, but
in all parts Of the country; and the
traffic on return voyages originating
in the same ports.
Lie W WSlSu
the advantage of having the Govern
ment turn over completely these
ships to private ownership, thereby
taking the Government out of the
business entirely, as against having
the Government retain an interest in
the vessels as proposed by the Pacific
Mail. 1t had also to weigh the advan-
tage of placing the ships in private
hands or of retaining them for the
Government-with the knowledge
they were losing no money and would
be an asset in time Of emergency. The
answer to the last is that in time
of emergency the Government could
condemn them for Government use.
But it is a safe guess that the price
the Government would have to pay
for them under such circumstances
would far exceed the sale price.
