MARIA, Portgual, Dec. %.
When the Spanish republic is
eventually established, as un-
doubtedly it will be, King Alfonso
must be called upon to answer
Tor the misgovernntent Of Spain
under his name.
Cites Tyrannies
He must be made to answer for
his many mistakes, politically
and economically.
Spain under the present mon
archiStic regime is suffering
tyrannies similar to those suf-
fered under Ferdinand VII, the
greatest of all Spanish tyrants.
Our recent attempt to over
throw the monarchy failed only
because of our we'll known Span
ish love for doing things "tomor-
row."
My job was to lombard the
royal palace in Madrid. When I
flew over it the bombs were fixed
under the plane, but 1 changed
my mind when I saw the num-
Der of civilians gathered about
the building. Had I released the
bombs many Of them would un-
doubtedly have been killed.
That would have done more
harm than good to the cause of
RepublicaniSm in Spain. It
might have been said by our
enemies that in our cause we
were attacking civilians.
I could have blown the palace
to bits, but I stayed the hand
which urged me to press the
lever releasing the bombs.
Denies Communism
Now our enemies are saying
that Communism was behind our
movement. That is untrue. We
have no Communist money be-
hind us.
On the other hand, we have
felt all along that, if we did not
bring about our coup d'etat now,
another revolution would break
out with Communist backings
and tendencies. This was the
last thing leaders of our revolt
desired. Our aim is a purely
Spanish republic; not one with a
Moscow background.
Had our attempt only sue
ceeded, Alcala Zamora would now
Dc President instead of being in
prison.

Household Methods
BIZ BETSY eALLIsTER.

Many persons use doilieS and run
ners on their dining-room tables-to
save the tablecloths-and others use
heavy hushers, asbestos pads and table
cloths in order TO save the surface OF
the dining table.
There is something amusing about
the situation. Pray, why treasure the
surface of the table so, If it Is never
going to be seen? Yet If you use f1ne
table every day unprotected by pads
and hushers the surface soon becomes
marred and stained.
While the craze for doilies and run
ners was at its height housewives prob
ably exaggerated the amount of time
saved in this way. AS matter OF fact
the bare table plus runners and doilleS
probably takes just as much time as the
table covered with husher and cloth.
If you leave the setting of the dining
table entirely to a maid you probably
have found that better results are OBJ
tanned with the old-faShioned cloth.
Few persons know how to care for
bare table properly. 1t should be
cleaned after each using. of course, yet
you should be careful not to wash it
as you would kitchen table. 1t should
be occasionally oiled to preserve the
finish of the wood, and yet the oil
should be used ever so Sparingly and
well rubbed in so that not a suspicion
of it will remain, for it is certainly not
pleasant to eat from a bare table that
still shows vestiges of furniture oil.
No table is probably worth the
amount of concern that some house
wives bestow upon their dining room
tables. 1t is foolish to use as dining
table a precious heirloom. When you
use pad and tablecloth, asbestos mats
should be placed beneath the places
where hot platters and vegetables dishes
will be placed-that is if you serve
dinner from dishes placed on the table.
There is no need for asbestos pads
under the dinner plates, for plates
should never be warmed to such a de-
gree that they will need more than the
husher between them and the surface
of the table. If doilies are used then
you should have asbestos pads to fit
under the doilies used beneath the plat
tiers, etc.

April Is, 1S6I-Military organizations
of Washington and Georgetown con-
tinue to increase their membership and
to offer their services TO the Federal
Government day by day.
The Potomac Light Guard of George
town--Capt Boyd and Lieuts. Drew,
Burch and McGraW-with fve SER
geants, four corporals, one musician and
So privates, arrived at the War Depart
ment early this forenoon and reported
for service. They were accepted and
sworn In.
The jackson Guards, Company A
Capt. McDermott, Lieuts. Tucker, Duffy
and O'Donnell and Quartermaster j.
OMera-with five sergeants, four cor
poralS, two musicians and 30 privates,
reached the department a little after
IL O'Clock today and rendered their
services to the Federal Government.
This company is composed almost, II
not entirely, of men who have always
been opposed to the politics Of the
present administration. They say they
desire it to be known to the world that
they are unconditional Union men"
The Slemmer Guards-Capt. Knight
came to the department at 1890
o'clock today and were sworn in. At
the same time nine recruits arrived for
the Henderson Guards-Capt. Foxwelrs
Communicated took the oath.
Capt BalbachS company, the Wash

numbers since the war news spread
that it has been determined to form a
second company
Company E, National Guard Bat
talion-Capt. Morgan-turned out so
numerously at the War Department
yesterday that the surplus over 100
privates, when they ascertained that
the Government would not accept more
than that number in any one company,
decided to form another company. They
expect to have a full complement of
men in a day or two.
The total number of men who turned
out with Company E yesterday was
1873.
The Union Volunteers are drumming
up recruits and expect to have full

quarter Of a century ago. ''Herdics"
were the little, round cabs, so small that
they could back up to the doorstep to
load q passenger. Sir Ronald explained
that the name was derived from a man
who operated a big livery stable in
Washington at that time.
The Ambassadors first wife was an
American-the daughter Of the late
Senator Donald j. Cameron of Penn
also an American-formerly Elizabeth
Sherman Hoyt, daughter of Colgate
Hoyt of New York.
Sir Ronald is So years old, a Scot,
the fifth son of the twenty-sixth Earl
of Crawford. He is a career man" in
the British foreign office and has no
distinct party Affiliations.
He was once Ambassador to Turkey
and again Ambassador at Berlin. He
began his diplomatic career as secretary
of the British embassy at st. Peters
burg when the cZarist regime was in
its Splendor.
He Is an accomplished linguist, speak
ing, besides his own language, Persian,
German and Russian.
Sir Ronald has two homes in his ma
tive land. One is at Fife, in Scotland.
The other is at Dorset, in England.
The envoy is making his home at one
of Washington's exclusive hotels, pend
ing completion of the new British en-
bassy far out on Massachusetts, avenue.
Sir Ronalds headquarters are still in
the old embassy on Connecticut avenue.
Describing himself as not teetotaler,
Sir Ronald must yet make up his mind
as to whether he will follow the ex-
ample of Sir ESnle and keep the Brit
1sh embassy in Washington dry"

Strained Eyes.

Tired, strained, swollen, red looking
eyes are all due to some definite ply
steal condition. To being run down, to
internal trouble, to any one of hun
dred things that only doctor or an
eye specialist can help you with.
But there are times when the eyes
look bad from temporary overwork, or
the strain of a long motor drive, or
perhaps from crying. And as eyes that
do not feel fresh spoil the looks, here
are some suggestions for quick tempo
rary relief.
The simplest treatment of all Is the
most effective-about 20 to IS applica-
lions of a small towel wrung out Of
quite hot salt water, laid over the eyes
and removed each time as soon as the
heat cools. This relaxeS muscles that
have been strained, it brings up fresh
blood, clears the eyes, rests, refreShes,
stimulates. Have your hot water salty
enough so it tastes salty; you'll need a
handful of salt to basin Of water,
perhaps.
Then rub some nourishing cold cream
around the eyes. Spread 1t on and rub
gently over each lid and around and
under the eyes, using the third finger of
each hand. And wipe of gently with
paper tissue, or an old soft bit of towel
Before doing this. you can use an eye
cup with boric acid solution in 1t if you
want, but I think the external treat
ment will do without this.
OF course the eyes should be rested
as much as possible. If you can't lie
down and close them, an least arrange
your lights so the room is not too
bright, and arrange your work so you
do not at once strain your eyes. Do
you know that long country walk is
good for tired eyes? Looking over long
distances is ,restful, whereas looking
across streets Is often a strain.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

There Is a time or a day or an event
which arrives in all mothers lives when
it seems vastly important to be relieved
of the baby's care. This is right. We
applaud it. A mother can be consci-
entiouS in her duty to baby and still
be able TO enjoy an afternoon with her
friends or an evening in the company
of her husband, while baby and his
care can be forgotten for the moment.
One of the most annoying and de-
plorable situations which can arise in
the household is for the baby to be-
come so firmly attached to his mother
and so utterly dependent upon her for
nourishment, that her illness or forced
absence is nothing short of tragedy
for those left in charge.
No one can foreSee accidents, or i'll
neSseS, or even the real need for the
recreational events mentioned above,
so baby should be prepared for taking
different kinds of feeding, and learn
to be happy with persons other than
his mother. The longer one pursueS
an unchanging line of conduct with a
baby the more difficult 1t is to break
the bonds of habit, and all habits, one
by one, must be changed and looSened
as baby grows older. None of them,
not even ways OF eating and sleeping,
remains the same.
The occasional (not regular) use of
a relief bottle feeding can be initiated
after baby is six weeks old, so that
he learns early in life to have his
hunger pangs satisfied in some other
manner than the familiar nursing.
Baby will be happier, he will learn
new habits and will accept necessary
changes when they arrive with smiles
instead of tears.
If we make the mistake of giving
relief bottle regularly. then we are
really weaving the baby. Instead, we
offer this relief bottle only once or
twice a week and at different nursing
periods, perhaps at 10 o'clock one morn
ing so that mother may go on a shop
ping tour. and another time at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon so that she may at
tend a party.
It is quite possible to express enough
breast milk and keep it in clean and
sterile bottle, on ice, to furnish baby
use a simple half and half formula
of boiled water and milk and level
teaSpoonful of sugar for every four or
five ounces of this mixture. The baby's
bottle and nipple should be sterilized,
the formula offered at a pleasingly
warm (not hot) temperature, and the
young baby will not dream Of refusing
it.
The baby less than two months old
NAV take a mixture that is slightly
weaker than the above, perhaps one
third milk and two-thirds water If
the milk is boiled and the amount not
excessive q baby viii not be disturbed
by his strange feeding.
We have a Ieafet on Simple Formulas for
Relief Bottles which goes into the subject
in greater detail. Any mother may secure
this by sending with her request self
addressed, stamped envelope to me In care
Of the your Baby and Mine" department of

BEAUTY CHATS BY EDNA KENT FORBES.

enlarged pores. The best way is to give
the skin the proper care every day, for
even though the improvement will be a
slow process it will be a permanent one
Quick methods of contracting the pores
are only for a temporary effect, and
usually when the reaction follows the
skin is the worse for it. A daily warm
bath is necessary for helping to i'm
prove a coarsened skin, as the pores over
the whole body are kept more active in
this way and that relieves the pores of
the complexion. If your time is lin
tied. some days you may use the shower
instead of drawing a full bath, and then
follow with a brisk rub down with a
coarse towel. After each time you
cleanse your face close pores with very
cold water or an ice rub.

More and more Women
buy bread this way...
First they make the test-by.toasting
to prove several facts

Housewives learn that
since Wonder Bread makes
better toast, it is best for
their every household need.
Slo-baked Wonder Bread has replaced
other breads In more than ten million
American homes. This largelythrough
the results of the famous TESTIFY
toasting.
Women saw this demonstrations
which shows Wonder Breads superior
qualities in baking and ingredients-at
stores andhome institutes everywhere.
Then they bought Wonder Bread
and made the test at home. Invari-
ably the results were the same. Wonder
Bread made better toast hence
was best for every bread need.
So this bread quickly found its way
to their tables where families
praised its true bread favor and deli
cate texture.
Why does the fact that Wonder
Bread makes better toast prove it
better bread? Because only from
scientifically perfect bread
can you make perfect "
toast.
Thus the better toast
you get is due to the V
super-quality ingredients BAK

you bread of fine, delicate texture.
The test is simplicity itself. just
take slice of Wonder Bread and
slice of any other bread. Place both
in your toaster.
See which slice is toasted first.
Which is an even, golden brown from
edge to edge? Which is crisper, with
a new delicate toast favor and a de-
Iightful aroma?
We have won ten million women
with this test. IF you find the result
of your test-by-toasting convincing,
we believe you will want only Wonder
