Twisting Railroad

One of the southwest Virginia's
most picturesque landmarks passed
out of existence with suspension of
the Marion & Rye railroad. which
ran from Marion Is miles south TO
Sugar Grove. The tracks traversed
hazardous mountain territory, the
path being so torIuous that before
reaching the end of one line, a house
on the way had been passed three
times.

Fish Without Ewes

Blind fish swim In subterranean
eaverns 1880 feet beneath San An
tonic. Texas, scientists there believe.
Specimens have been sucked up
through pumping plant pipes of the
San Antonio Public Service company.
The eyeless fish are light pink in
color when seen above the ground,
probably due to the breakdown of
cell composition. Water pressure in
their cavernous haunts is about 500
pounds square inch, whereas atmos-
pheric pressure at sea level is 14.7
pounds. Specimens, to 6 inches
long, invariably die on reaching the
surface.

 These condoled with him over the fact that he had to return to Alaska and suffer from the cold And the temperature there at the time was Is degrees below zero They were inclined to be skeptical when he told them they were hay ing colder weather than he would ever see in Juneau.
 Considerable cold weather was encountered in both the east and west. It was really a relief, he said, to get back to Juneau.
 Saw Hunger Marchers
 In Washington, Dr. Fellows saw the parade staged by the Hunger Marchers" at the opening of Con gress. It was more parade of the Washington police force, he commented. There were as many uniformed policemen as there were hunger marchers in the procession
 Washingtonlans observed a mark ed difference between this latest demonstration and that staged by the ex-service bonus seekers and the farmers The last two groups were orderly. carried no flags but the national colors and gave no evidence of Tadicalism.
 The hunger marchers paraded behind the Red flag, wore Red tabs on their sleeves, and carried communistic posters. However, the demonstration passed off without any untoward incident, due large ly to the capable manner in which it was handled by the police.

Republican Regime in National Capital Apparently Is At End; Democrats Take Responsibility

at Washington already is at an end, and that the responsibilities and troubles-of the Democrats have begun.
 Not even the Republican old guard shows any disposition to press MT. Hoover's most important recommendations. Congress will try instead to put through MT. Roose- velt's program, and if that fails will let things slide over into a special session after March 4.
 The Hoover sales tax proposal has been received amid general silence, while the leaders think instead of the Roosevelt-sponsored tax on beer.
 The Hoover appointments to pub lie office are to be left to die in the Senate chamber. The approp- riation bills seem more likely to follow the cues from Albany than the urging of the White House.
 Not single voice is raised on Capitol Hill to applaud MT. Hoo ver's proposal for a war debt ag- ency-opposed by the chosen suc- cessor.
 Finally, the Hoover specifications for consolidation of government bureaus are looked at skeptically

conspicuous.
 At both ends of the Capitol trouble is brewing over the appor- tionment of committee chairman ships. f~
 The problem will not be very severe in the Senate, where the rule of seniority is so firmly es- tablished; but the House situation presents a real problem.
 So whatever of prestige MT. Hoover may have suffered and whatever disappointments may still be in store for him before March 4, he will have the satisfaction of knowing that the trials and problems of responsibility already are settling down on the opposi- ton.

STARTING NEW DEAL

This sort of a shift of leader ship always occurs in some degree when change of administration is in the offing, but it has been ac- tolerated this time by special cir cumstances.
 For one thing, the Democrats have actual if not technical con- trol of both Senate and House, and they want to have the new deal" as much of going concern as possible when MT. Roosevelt takes the oath as President in March.
 While MT. Hoover himself has shown disposition to carry on with militant Republican pro- gram right up to inauguration day, the spirit of his former sup porters in Congress is badly brok- en. Many of the titular leaders not only are lame ducks but they do not appear anxious to re- habilitate MT. Hoover as domi- nant party figure.
 The whole disposition is to post pone reorganization of the Repub- lican party until after March 4, and to leave it largely in the hands of those who then will remain in office.

PIE A SING

BY CHLOE JAMISON.

WHILE you are busy revising budgets
w for the coming year, there may
be a temptation to cut food bills where
no cutting should be done. You may
try lowering the quality Of the butter
served at the table, buying G grade
eggs and milk, and resort to such clever
little tricks as skimping the quality
of coffee used when making the morn
ing cup, thinking your husband so used
to first class coffee that he will never
question it.
Beware in all three directions
especially about the coffee. Moth
ing can so quickly send a man off to
work in bad humor as one spineless
cup of coffee followed by second cup
taken in the hope of finding the old
time vigor denied by number one.
AS to the blend you use, let 1t be
the one that suits your tastes best. A
few cents more or less amount to very
little in the long run, when divided by
the cost per cup. But the way you
make the coffee matters, and the
amount used amounts most of all.
The great cooks unite in prescribing
one heaping tablespoon Of ground coffee
for each cup, and another spoonful for
the pot, whether coffee is percolated,
dripped or boiled. In all cases the pot
must be sweet and clean, the water
bubbling briskly when poured over the
ground coffee if you use drip-pot as
most women do in these days because
of its convenience and reliability. No
watching the clock is necessary to pre-
vent under or overlooking by this
method, no extraction of bitter oils
results.
Serve plenty of coffee cream, If at
all possible. If substitute is neces-
Sary and your husband diSlikes the
taste of canned cream, do not spoil his
beverage by using 1t for economy's sake.

Everyday Psychology
BY DR.. JESSE w. sPRoWLs,
Demons.

Demons.
Our primitive ancestors regarded
themselves as objects. So far as they
could understand, stones, trees, animals
and the like had the same experiences
they had.
These same ancestors had their
dreams their fears and all the other
things that go to make up what We
now call minG. But they reasoned that
unseen demons inhabited the earth and
air, and were back of the whole busi-
ness. Their feelings were directly due
to the work Of these demons. The de-
mon constituted for them an externality
which, although unseen, directed their
lives. Even as late as the fifth century,
B. c., few of the wise men imagined
that demons followed them all the time.
In those ancient days the demons were
on the outside.
We still have demons. But they are
now on the inside. DR.. Sigmund Freud
is the man who, more than any other,
esta blished the theory that our thoughts
govern our actions. And just as the
ancient demons were unseen eXternaIs,
the modern demons are unrecognized

To get rid of these modern demons
consult Freud or some Of his disciples.
The trick is known as psychoanalysis.

Americans who sojourn in China,

Creamed--or with butter sauce-bam-
hoo shoots are as good as our own as
naragus. with various meat ragoutS and
rascerOIes they are delicious. Since
bamboo can be grown anywhere in our
Southern States, perhaps our grand
children will yet wander through groves
of these brilliant green tubes and find,
as did David Fairchild, that "a grove
of Young bamboo is the most fascinating
thing in the world"
One of the most worthy Of the Orien-

The pulp has a very agreeable taste,
and it is a valuable addition to our
foods because of its high fruit content.
Its pectin makes it an ideal fruit for
iellies and jams, and also as favortng
other fruit jellies. The loquat is al
ready being shipped to our Eastern mar
kets from California, but, as California
is limited in the export, as the fruit Is
growing In favor so rapidly there, al
most the entire crop is consumed locally
Persimmon is another fruit which be-
longs to East and West alike. Wild
throughout Japan, China and our
Southern States, recent cultivation has
developed most luscious fruit almost
as large as an apple. Reddish-yellow in
color and composed of a pulpy, sWeetish
mass. they may be eaten just so. made
into pie, stewed, jellied or as a salad
Great success has been achieved in the
persimmon cultivation on the West
Coast. and the fruit is coming more and
more into our markets.
There is a certain piquancy to adding
new foods to our individual list OF
edibles. which gives us Zest for food,
and when the foods are rich in health
values we should indeed be ever watch
full for them.

Old Mother Nature.

The snow that covered the Green
Green Forest kept many secrets and
at the same time told many things:
SO those who used their eyes learned
much about their neighbors. After
every light fall there were many stories
written in the snow by the feet of
those who hunted and those who were
hunted.
Peter Rabbit had ventured up to the
Old Orchard. He felt fairly safe there,
for was not the Old Stonewal along
one side? And were there not open
ings between the stones into which he
could dodge and no enemy follow save
Shadow of the Weasel? He felt quite as
safe as there in the dear Old Briar-
patch. There had been light snow
the day before, and now Peter read the
record of those who had passed that
way since the snow fell. He grinned
as he saw the footprints Of Reddy Fox.
Reddy had been the whole length of
that old wall on both sides and twice
had crossed from one side to the other.
He saw the round prints Of Black Pussy
the Cat.
Chatterer, the Red Squirrel, had run
along the top of the well. His big
cousin, Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel,
had sat on big stone at the end near
est Farmer Browns house. But whose
footprints were these? Peter sat still
and stared at them. They somehow
seemed familiar, yet he couldn't think
of any Of the little people abroad daily
in Winter who could have made them.
He scratched long ear with long
hindfoot, a way he has Of doing when
he is puzzled.

muttered. yes, sir, ought to know

and there was Striped ChipEiunk him
self looking as pert and saucy as ever
as he sat on the Old wall
Jimmy Skunk grinned. According
to Peter, you should be asleep, for you
are one of the seven sleepers," said he.
OF course I am one," replied Striped
Chipmunk, but is that any reason why
I shouldn't wake up once in a while
and poke my head out for a look
