NY Neighbor Says:

If you rinse a plate with cold
water before breaking eggs on
it, add to them a pinch of salt,
and then place them where there
is a current Of air. you will have
no difficulty in beating them to
a froth.
Keep cloths used for polishing
furniture in a covered tin or
galvanized iron pail. Cloths sat-
urated with polishing liquids,
stored away in closets. often
cause spontaneous combustion.
To mend agateware, mix a
piece of putty in as much salt as
you can. Put it over the hole,
then put water in the kettle and
ct it back on the stove until the
putty hardens.
Never put leftover fish in the
garbage can as the weather
grows warmer. It attracts cats
and flies.

for neighbors.
He continued exploring every OPEN
ing he came to and at length came to
a large opening the entrance TO which
was partly hidden by bushes. He
paused and wriggled his nose. There
was a strong odor that warned him at
once that this was the home Of some
one, and so 1t was wise to be careful.
Any of the little people of the Green
Forest but Shadow would. on getting
that strong scent, have turned hastily
and stolen away and kept away. But
Shadow did nothing Of the kind. His
is of a venturesome disposition.
So instead of turning and running he
boldly but watchfully entered. He
wanted to find out If the owner was at
home. A long passage led to a cave
in the rocks. 1t was dark in there, but
Shadow is quite at home in the dark.
Presently he stopped. He had heard a
slight sound in the darkness beyond.
The owner Of that cave was at home.

 She felt as if she had come to the worlds end, as she stood there staring blankly at her brother-in- laws grim face.
 No wonder Flora had hated him.

 Son6ra signed it; she felt as if she stood by looking coldly on at her other self slowly writing her nam, at the foot of the formal receipt which Lomax had drawn up.
 Twenty-Five hundred dollars: she suddenly remembered that she owed John Anderson more than that amount.

Real Progress.
Cincinnati Enquirer)


 Industry is burdened by three clinging vampires
 official corruption, racketeering and general law essness. It is to these destructive agencies that Legislatures should direct primary attention There can be no real progress in the Nation of any kind whatsoever until these burdens shall be reduced in State and local governments. These and waste and extravaganza in public affairs, increase the cost of production, minimize profit parayze the political industrial and business life of the country We must have emergency laws, but these can be regarded adventitious aids only.
 Criminality in the Nation must be adequately restrained. The cost of all government must be reduced. To accomplish such restraint and reduc- tion will constitute titanic task But the work can and must be done if this democracy is to con- tinue to exist and business and industry may have hope to gain reasonable profit a rightfu reward for legitimate investment and the performance of honest labor
 Legislatures and Congress, should bend their gies in this direction. They should realize that we cannot at the same time have crime and prosperity, racketeerng and recovery of conditions making for material progress. There be such recovery and progress along the avenues of any real pros perityt until the people send to Congress and Legislatures who dedicated wholly to the public welfare, who willing to subordinate every personal interest to the higher duty they owe to the Nation, the State, the community The times call for the services of leaders in Legislatures men of ability and unqualified courage The com mon good should be the aim of every Legislator, and he should address himself unselfishly devotedly to securing that all-important end.

PROHIBITION NOT THE CURE.

The Society for the Prevention of Blindness IS seeking legislation to prohibit the sale of certain toys and fireworks on the ground that their use is dangerous to humanity. Conceding that their objective which is the riddance of society of the dangers involved in the of the things they condemn, is praiseworthy, experience teaches that the suggested remedy is bound to prove intellectual
 Sumptuary statutes have proved to be worth less The of cap pistols and slingshots and other toy weapons and fireworks is too general to be curbed by a mandatory law Education is the thing that is needed. To make illegal some action or custom that people have done legally over long period of time merely invites criminality Exuber- ance be curbed no more by law than can appe- tite. The Eighteenth Amendment has proved that appetite is not amenabe to the law Legislation that seeks to curb cap pistols and similar make believe weapons and fireworks will be equally in- effectual Education designed to show the dangers of common of toy weapons and fireworks will serve the desired end far better than legislation. Prohibitory laws will fail unless public support is first achieved

WORTHY OF CONSIDERATION.

The suggestion of MT. Kerry at Seattle that there be united effort to induce the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to advance funds for pros pecting for gold and the development of gold mines in Alaska ought to receive serious considera- tion Gold mining is one occupation where there is no competition Gold prospecting and mining would not put people out of work in any sort Of activity Instead it would add to employment in many lines F .'r
 Irrigation ditches and many other enterprises that are suggested for the R. F. c. would finally result in the production of agricultural crops that would compete with already harrassed farmers. It would in the end add to the pressure of the de- mand for farm relief. That would not be the case wild gold prospecting and mining. That would add to the employment not only through the men put directly to work but it would create additional markets for the farmers and all other industries and transportation agencies, and it would add to the volume of sound money that would continue to work for the people in the future.

BREACH IN COALITION GOVERNMENT.

Friction is developing in the Coalition Govern ment of Great Britain because of the efforts of the Tories to capture seats at byelections to suc- ceed Liberals and Laborites who supporting the Government. This was emphasized recently when two seats were filled at elections where both one Liberal and Laborite. who had died, supporters of the Government. All Tory members Government supporters The Liberals nominated very able to succeed the Liberal Government supporter Likewise the Laborites pick ed an excellent man. Both the Liberal and the Laborite candidates declared for the Government. Yet the Conservatives nominated candidates against both men and threw the whole support of the party organization behind them
 The election resulted in the return of the Liberal and the Laborite by increased majorites, but the incident seems to have opened 8 breach between the Liberals and Laborites the one side and the Conservatives on the other in the Government

 She wanted to laugh and push the check away; she wanted to tell this man that she could do without him and his charity, but she knew the folly of such an ac- ton.
 She had no money-noWhere to go. Lomax was probably right when he suggested that few peo- pie would want her when the truth wzs krown.

Cheering Prospects.
(Ketchikan Chronicle.o


 The decision of Henyy OMalley, Commissioner of Fisheries, to extend the salmon fishing season in this district for another three days is welcome news. It will result in the distribution to nearly 000 cannery workers of many thousands of dollars that would not otherwise have been paid.
 At the same time the future supply of the sal- mon will not in any way be jeopardzed, because the seasons closing August 19 will allow an ample escapement, which is the essence of the conserva- ton program practced.
 It seems fortunate that even at a time like this there is good of fish. Had ruthless ex- poitation been allowed to proceed during the dizzy years of prosperity, what would have had left except memories to tide a lean year such as this? To us the presence of the salmon and the condition of the economic world is evidence enough of the worth of the program that has been insti- tuted Disagreement may occasionally arise as to the details, to the exact method to be employed but we scarcely ever hear any attack on the prn- cile of conservation itself In fact everyone seems pretty fairly agreed that it's a good thing.
 By his extension of the local season MT. O'Mal- ley has proved, that the administration can be tempered with reason. The three days additional will prove small help.

Fewer Illiterates.
(Miami, Fla, News.)


 The United States Census Bureau in its recent check of the population found that only 43 per cent were lliterate decline of more than two-thirds during the last 40 years. The percentage in 1890 was 133 The improvement is attributed largely to public education of children, for among youngsters of 10 to IA years Athe percentage of ilteracy was 1.2 per cent, while in the age group of 65 and over it was 97. The Bureau defines iterate as a person 10 years who is unable to read and write either in English another language
 It might be imagined that the lack of these educational fundanentals is greater among the foregn-born among native children of foreign born parents but such is not the case. The higher proportion is among native Americans born of native parents. Foreign populations usually are concen- trated in the cities where adequate educational facilities available and the iterates may more readily be reached. Most of the native white and colored -ilterates, the other hand reside in re- mote rural districts where schools few and con tacts with the outside world
 Enterprises like the moonlight" schools conduct demonstrated that illiteracy be wiped out even in the isolated parts of the country The national organization crusading against illiteracy has com piled special textbooks for the work, and it points out that adults are readily schooled in simple reading and writing than children. Cooperation of communities and disnterested individuals is essen- tia to make the literacy record 100 per cent. The hope is to do that prior to the next census Pride often keeps the illiterate from seeking aid. He must be sought out, and the census lists hold the only complete and comprehensive data. The move ment should center in them.

 The decision of this company to expand its operations is indication of the faith of its managers in returning business activity and pros- perty. It is refreshing to know that there are signs of improvement in the fishing situation in Alaska.
