one of those on her list. She made up
a large quantity of sugar syrup. She
made this by boiling water and sugar
for five minutes. She used the proper
ton of equal parts water and sugar
This served as base for all her fruit
drinks.
She planned to order enough lettuce
for three days and to wash it and put
it in the lettuce bag which went in the

Why We Sigh.

A sigh indicates some emotional dis
turbance There is the sigh of regret,
the sigh of pleasure, the sigh Of relief,
and the sigh for some unfulf1lled wish
or longing.
The sigh is usually unconscious, auto
matte. 1t is caused by an irregularity
in the respiratory mechanism. We in
hale suddenly, or exhale suddenly, or
do both.
The peculiar breathing in a sigh
shows that the automatic system
which controls breathing is not func-
tioning properly. There is some inter-
ference. Any deep longing, an unful-
filled wish, deep sorrow or sud-
den release of pressure, such as unex-
pected good news when you were look
ing for bad news results in the heav-
ing of a deep sigh or series of them.
We sigh because there is nothing else
we can do. If we could do something
we would act. Action is great safety
valve. 1t releases emotional energy that
would otherwise well up and Suffocate
us. When we sigh we are caught in a
situation that leaves us no outlet. We
try to think our way out and fail. I'M
mediately the sigh occurs to release
the tension.
1t would be interesting to catch a
real sigh and examine it's chemical
contents to see If 1t is different from
ordinary breath. On general principles
one would expect to find more waste
substances, such as carbon dioxid and
possibly other elements of waste and
fatigue.
An unfulfilled wish sets up a strong
state of uneasiness that shows lack
of endocrine balance. The result is a
sigh. The same is true in sorrow and
grief We wish for the lost ones or the
thing lost. Since it is an impossible
wish it is an unfulhlled wish and
hence the sigh, which is mark of
helplessness.
We sigh when we are at our wits end
and don't know what else to do. The
sigh comes quite automatically as a
release of pressure and of nervous ten
sion and emotional disturbance. But

Natures Munificent Beauty.
Cincinnati Enquirer)

(Clnclnnat1 EnqulrerD
 Nature lovers now are luxuriating in the glori- fled presentments of the flower of the year
 How many tones of green there arel They range from the hue of palest bud to the deep-sea tones of the vaunting nature leaf, from the gray of willows to the virescence of foliage which well might adorn the tresses of the tripping spring god- deSs. They gleam and Shne-theSe variations of color and their fitting foil is the splendor of bud and blossom radiating an effulgence of love- Illness and harmony which is attune with fair est dreams of Paradise.
 The redbud has passed, it's crimson fires longer dominate the landscape but the oak buds red dening; soon they will cry out in scarlet hilarity They embody the message of the later-coming sumach and those reckoning vines which salute the kiss of autumn.
 In the patches and spotches of color in arboreal green cooness, the birds of the season find nest ing places and minister coigns for the sweetness of their choralngs, their fittings, pipings chatter ings In their hearts do they realize and feel the flooding of the beauty of which they are a part? It seems that they do. And why not? They are part of life and life is the only real fact we know. May we live part of it we'll as well and truly as do the birds and flowers.

 One thing a housewife would like science to explain is why, when the house is in perfect order, nobody ever drops in, but if it looks like ] night club after raid the last woman she would want to see it that way, never fails to com 2 breezing in.
 It would be terrible if the girls got bald and there was no way for them to change the style of fixing their hair.
 No old maid spends more time wishing for a man than the poor wife who was crazy enough to mar ry a jellyfish in pants.
 Many a girl today has a mother to guide her, but raises Cain if mother ever tries to do it
 A wife only smiles when her hus- band gets to telling the company how she bosses him, but we never yet have seen one who would stand for her husband saying he was henpecked.
 After she has been married so long a wife's idea of miracle is having her husband praise the meal instead of finding fault with something she's served or the way it is cooked.
 Now and then you meet wom- an who makes you feel if she was your wife you would never get drunk and take the chance of see- ing her double.
 Daughter never will admit she is selfish, but she thinks mother is if she wants to get a few things she needs, making it impossible for daughter to get lot of things she wants.

THE KICK IS STILL IN THE TARIFF

The Senate has announced that it will continue tariff bill hearings until July 10, which goes to show that the Tariff has lost of it's vigor since the days of Mckinley and Dingley and Payne Aldrich, and may continue to be spelled with capi tai T on many occasions It was thought that few minor changes could be arranged and the Tariff Question quickly disposed of for the rest of the Hoover Administration But not so. When the question was opened up old appetites were revived. And then various sections of the country sent dele gatons to Washington to demonstrate the authentic ity of Hancocks famous declaration that the Tariff was local question. It seems likely that the special session of Congress will be swinging along nearly-if not quite-a summer. It is nearly two months since it began, and it hoped in the beginning that it would not last than six weeks is probably certain to last until the dog days of August at least.

COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION.

Regarding the new Commissioner of Edu-
 cation MT Frame said There has been
 some criticism regarding the action of the
 Board of Education in refusing to re-elect
 MT Henderson as Commissioner Of Educa-
 ton. When it was learned that some other
 person might be chosen in his place. some
 of his friends made personal appeal to
 various members of the Board. was prom
 sed the position of District Attorney at
 Nome, if I would vote for him. The law
 creating the position says that the Com
 missioner shall be chosen merit; but
 what considerations of merit enter into
 his selection, if it is assumed that the mem
 bers of the Board of Education are so venal
 and corrupt that their votes can be bought
 for the promise of political job?"-Anchor- age Tmes)
 MT. Frame, in common justice to the people o1 Alaska and those who are supposed to contro patronage, ought to tell the whole story. Who of fered him the position of District Attorney al Nome for his vote in the election of a Commis- sioner of Education? The charge he has made might be construed by various persons applying to different individuals. It not at all fair oi honest to make such accusation unless the name of the person charged with attempting to bribe mentioned. It is cowardy to make charges o1 that kind without making them sufficiently specific that the charged might defend himself.
 And, further if any tried to influence MT Frames vote when he was acting in officia capacity a representative of the people the latte have right to know the miscreants name and al about the matter
