there are no snakes In Ireland; and
while was there found no reason
to doubt 1t.
Probably you have heard the legend
about st. Patrick driving the snakes out
Of Ireland. That, Of course, u Just o
tale without truth In II.
The man we call St. Patrick appears
to have spent his boyhood In Great
Britain, not far from the River Severn,
which divides Wales and England. II
Is believed that he was born about the
year $50.
The old story Of his life says that he
was captured by Q band Of Irishmen
when he was Is years Of age, and that
ne spent six years - shepherd In
Ireland.
We are told that the young herds
man escaped from the island; but later
ne went back and worked to convert
the Irish to the Christian faith. The
date OF his death Is given as 46l, which
would make him about "a years old at
the time he passed away.

may be mixed with other fruit juices or

Soft White Frosting: Add q pinch of
baking powder to the whites of the eggs
that you are going to use to make your

done before beating them. Then pour

It Is very good for frosting cookies and

Of the essential ingredients should be

For . thin batter, have equal parts of
flour and liquid, Q cupful Of -four to q
cupful Of liquid; for thick batter,
twice as much flour as liquid. for stiff
dough, four times as much flour az
liquid. For the proportions Of the dry
ingredients, one cupful OF -four calls
for one-fourth teaspoonful Of salt, and
one cupful OF flour calls for two level
teaspoonfuls Of baking powder. II you
remember that one cupful Of flour will

the liquids moving in the body. This
is most important point IN the cleans
ing diet, and one Of the pleasantest
features Of It.
Vegetables and fruits high in water

oranges, grapefruit, rhubarb, apples,

Those who follow out . strict pro-

no meat or fat. But I know that not
every one can be 50 consistent. 1t Is
for those that I give the following
suggestions which bring the cleansing
foods to the table IN quantities large
enough to give them . fair chance to
do good work
Try spring carrots baked In . cas-
serole with apples, II you want q dish
that Is different, yet within this group.
Scrape the carrots and cut them in
long, thin slices. Core apples and cut
them in slices about a quarter Of an
inch thick Place a layer Of apples
in the bottom Of q buttered baking
dish, then layer Of carrots, sprinkling
each with dash Of salt and dots Of
butter Add layers until the dish is
filled. ending with the apples. Dot
generously with butter, sprinkle with
sugar, cover and bake until almost
tender Remove the lid, and bake until
top Is slightly brown. Serve as a
vegetable.
Large onions, parboiled and baked
with stuff1ng Of other vegetables like
cooked peas or chopped celery and
carrots and cabbage. or chopped green
pepper and cabbage, are delicious for
the Spring luncheon or dinner. Then
later will come fresh asparagus-a won
derful water vegetable. DO prepare 1t
In this way: Wash, cut stalks of up
to point where tender. cook In boiling
salted water, drain we'll. ana serve with
a sauce of drawn butter blended with
lemon juice, salt, . little cayenne and
pepper.
Make rhubarb cocktails, using the
tender new pink rhubarb which you
may cook without peeling. Add little
lemon Juice to the fruit and serve it
thoroughly chilled The rhubarb cock
tail Is a tonic In itself, and very re-
freshing. Serge stewed rhubarb also
for dessert, and do not cook 1t with so
much sugar that the juice becomes
heavy or too syrupy.

NARENTS are forever hunting for
- ways to make" . child DO
something to which hs = op.
i posed. But compelling q child
to do something argues that
We must use force. Force Is always
met by like force, 80 that while We
may accomplish the thing We set out
TO do, being parents and therefore
physically superior, the emotion We
arouse in the child is antagonistic to
Z peaceful repetition Of the same thing.
Even If we accomplish the same act
over and over again BY force, and the
child discovers that he can not sac-
cessfully oppose US. his behavior be-
comes antagonistic TO other good BE-
havior against which he can rebel,
whether we wish him 20 or not. Thus,
while we may force food into the
childs mouth and make him swallow
It, we cannot make the child 70 to
sleep or make him keep down the food.

vice to you Is to take the child to a

physical conditions that are hostile to

That the city of Waterbury has the right to postpone the collec- ton of taxes from needy persons, WAS the gist of an opinion rendered last night by Corporation Counsel Charles s. O'Connor to the board of aldermen. The aldermen met for their regular monthly session. The opinion was requested month ago when the question of the right of the board to postpone col Iections was raised following a by the 1893 session of the legisla- ture.-
 Attorney O'Connor pointed tout, However, that those seeking post ponement of collection must file their requests with the board with 3n 90 days after the taxes become due. Furthermore, the board must act on the requests within 60 days after the requests are received.
 This will. change the procedure somewhat in such cases. Previous ly property owners would let their taxes run for over a year and then file a request for the postponement of the taxes. Now the requests must be in within three months.
 Almost $5,000 in claims against the city were ordered settled by the aldermen last night. The claims were for injuries received in falls on defective sidewalks. for damages to autos on defective roads and for damages to property from layouts. The board also re- iected Q number of claims on the grounds that they were without foundation. Hearings on the claims took place about a month ago be- fore the committee on law of the board of aldermen. The claims orr dered paid were as follows: Carl Kratzke, damage to auto due to ex- cavation on Lakewood road and personal injuries, $200: Theresa Bloomfield, fall on sidewalk on Knoll street, $325: Martha Mclean, fall on sidewalk, Highland avenue, $500; Minnie Dubois, fall on side walk on West Main street, $150: William Carroll, damage from storm water sewer overfiowing on property, $43: w.

M'NUTT TO co
ON AIR MONDAY
Governor to Make Appeal
for Repeal in Talk
Over Radio.

Governor Paul " McNutt who
believes that the Democratic party,
both nationally and in the state, is
committed to repeal of the eight
zenith amendment, will broadcast on
the subject next Monday night, he
indicated today.
His declaration for repeal is in
sharp contrast to the Secretive eff
forts, if any, being made by the
state committee under Chairman r.
Earl Peters, it was pointed out.
The election is Tuesday and thus
far the state committee has re-
fused to make any strong declara-
ton regarding the platform stano
Of the Democratic party.
Peters last week attempted to
explain it by saying that his Or
ganizatDn is working with the Re
publjcans to put across the repeal
and keep it nonpartiSan.
But that the c. o. P. is in any
such lineup was denied today by
Harry Fenton, veteran secretary Of
the Republican state committee.
Governor McNutt took an early
stand for repeal and it since has
been advocated by the national adj
miniStration.
Some observers assert that per-
Sonai politics has entered into the
state committees failure to take a
strong stand.
