THE WHY OF THE CANAPE

Those canapes which are served on every occasion and in unend- ing variety have an interesting history. Canape is French word meaning, in it's literal sense. couch or bed. When the chef who first invented the savory appetizer in this form gave his assistant di- rections for it's making. he in- structed him to place the filling upon "canape' or bed of toast which would convey the tid-bit easily 10 the table, where it could be eaten, with the fingers, if desir- ed. Therefore the canape is real ly but the foundation of the ap- petizer. not the finished delicacy itself.

He makes rigid molds out of words-virtue, de- mocracy, justice, liberty and tries to pour his stun into them. Laws are to him instruments for making other men behave according to his idea.

ALL THIS FUSS ABOUT HAVING
 A BABY,


 A BABY. e New York correspondent speak. her mind, and maybe the mind O. the modern woman, about tht baby business: My Dear Dr Brady;
 A constant reader of your daily column, I cannot help being an admirer of yours. Your articles radiate cheer and good practical common sense.
 However, progressive as your, articles are in every item, whenever you write about the subject of obstetrics they seem to me utterly wrong.
 To you, the plain of childbirth appears to be something that one should endure cheerfully, just bearing in mind that if one survives the excrutiating tortures of the damned one will be re- warded with a baby.
 True, baby is worth every sacrifice, but it is necessary in this presumably enlightened goth century for a woman to have to undergo these tortures in order to bear a child :?
 Is it because you are man and know you will never have to undergo the ordeal of child bearing that you dismiss this subject so lightly?
 think all you physicians should spend what leisure time you have in scientific research to discover some means of miti- gating women's awful sufferings. instead of breathing them for not wanting to undergo a second childbirth after having been through one.
 Because childbirth is a ma. turaT function is no reason why women should not demand suc- cour while in labor. It is up to you doctors to find this for them, instead of extolling the noble joys of motherhood" and the sacredness of it.
 (Mrs R., H.) The letter sounds as though it had been written in 1884 before the discovery of anesthesia. p It sounds, too, as if Mrs R. H. were perhaps afflicted with one-chi1d sterility and seeks a good albi for not proceeding with the raising of 8 family.
 Frankly. since you ask me, I'll say I wouldn't mind much having another appendicitis operation or any little adventure like that, but by gosh Id-well, I'd consent to have a baby only on condition that I should receive all the anesthetic I wanted. Yea, and I'd prefer good old chloroform. to any of your trick anesthetics. ] have always believed that the same Providence that ordained the tra- vail of childbirth sent chloroform to assuage the pain. Tn my opin- ion chloroform is the safest and most satisfactory anesthetic or in labor.
 I dismiss the subject so lightly because l am sure the great ma jority of mothers of large fami.

Your meat, cheese or fish sand wiches will be much more tasty if the butter used for spreading Is creanied and well-seasoned before putting it on the bread. For ham, bologna, tongue or other cold siic- ed meat sandwich, cream little prepared mustard into the butter. For fish, add lemon juice, a drop or two of onion juice, if desired. and a little minced parsley. A very nice butter to use with the cheese sandwich is that which is mixed with very finely grouni nuts.

fact.
Flames and dense smoke trapped
the men on the 2.600-foot level.
The only miner to break through
died while being hoisted to the sur
face. He was the foreman of a crew
working on the level. Burns and the
effects of gas suffered as he was being
hoiSted caused death.
Six Taken to Hospital
Six rescue workers were taken to a
hospital in a serious condition after
having been overcome.
The first warning of the disaster
came when a 25-foot flame licked into
the shaft from the level where the
men were working.
This great flame, which ignited the
mine timbering, was followed by suf-
locating clouds of smoke.
With rescue work abandoned,
thoughts turned to the families of the
entombed men. A government rescue
commission was expected to reach
the village today.

REPUBLICANS LOSE
u. S. ARIZONA JOBS
Democrats Hold Almost All I'm

May Be Removed.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHOENIX, Ariz., February 3.-The
national administrators broom is
making a clean sweep Of Republicans
holding Federal Jobs in Arizona.
Aside from Federal Judge F. c.
Jacobs, appointed for life by President
Harding, and several postmasterships,
only one important Federal position
continues to be occupied by Repub-
lican. George A. Mauk, United States

tate dealer, and Ben J. Mckinney,

the position in which he SITS" says
Snowberger when a driver grabs
the wheel at the bottom, steers nerv-
ously from side to side or drives with
one hand wonder what he would do
if something happened suddenly. II
he spreads his feet carelessly on the
floor, crosses his legs as I've often
sc m them do, I'm pretty certain he's
not going to pay much attention to
his driving. And if he slumps down
in his seat know he won't pay much
attention to business.
Racing drivers are generally re-
garded as careless lot of daredevils,"
says the racer But they are not
careless. The minute a race drivers
hands touch the wheel he has time
for just one thing-driving. Sure,
race drivers take chances. That's part
of their job. But they don't take them
foolishly. Race pilots don't hog the
road or drive with one hand on the
wheel and the other about compan-
ion. There are enough hazards on
the track. So the race driver doesn't
create others on the open road.
The essentials of good driving are
as follows: Every driver should sit
erect in the car. with his back touch
ing the cushion. The feet should be
kept so that they can be instantly
moved to the foot pedals Grasp the
steering wheel firmly with both hands
but cont grip it too tightly. Keep.
your hands on the rim and not on the
spokes in what might be called the
IL O'Clock position for the left and
the o'clock position for the right.
Use the entire hand, with the thumbs
on the inside of the rim and the fin
gers extending outward and around
it. Don't keep your muscles taut, for
that quickly tires you when driving
Instead, flex your arms and legs and
try to sit comfortably in the seat.
Make your movements smoothly and
easily. Try to get more enjoyment out
OF YOUR driving

and road driving I have taught N.Y.
