MARSHMALLOW TOPPING
FOR BAKED PUDDING
Cap Your Offerings With Snowy,
Little Drowned Frosting.

Baked buildings are useful in
winter menus, particularly when the
oven is being heated for roasting
meats and baked potatoes. Make
an everyday dish into Sunday one
by the ingenious, yet simple, method
of Gaping it with snowy, lightly
Drowned marshmallowS.
1t makes a pudding that is novel
and especially practical, since it can
use leftover cake made day before
yesterday and not quite fresh
enough to serve. Plain white or
yellow butter cake, sponge or angel
cake also may be used.

IDLE CASH HITS
BANK FUNDS
International News Service

International news SoEVIcO
Widespread economies in adj
ministration of Federal Reserve
banks were planned today as
earnings of the IL central institu-
lions tumbled sharply.
A report of operations for the
first six months of this year
showed that only the st. Louis
and Dallas banks were able to
pay dividends without dipping
into reserve balances.
Net earnings of the banks be-
tween January and June
amounted to $3,277,988, com
pared with $7,2O5,O 900 earned dur
ing the same period of 1885.
Against this years earnings, the
banks paid out $3,921,S46 in div:
dends, representing a deficit OF
more than 100000. Should this
trend continue, 1886 will mark
the first time in IL years that
the banks failed to earn enough
to cover dividend payments.
This reduction in revenue is
caused principally by the huge
amount of idle funds available to
both Federal and private borrow
ing. The Central Reserve banks
make money chiefly from interest
on Federal securities and by dis
counting industrial loans OF mem
Der institutions.

Charlotte, arriving early Thursday
morning. These plans are tenta-
tive.
On Radio Tomorrow
The President will return to
Washington tomorrow morning to
find White House activities still
in a state of extreme disruption
due to installation of new wiring
system. This work has been going
on all summer and has rendered
the executive mansion virtually
uninhabitable. It is nearing COM
pletion but probably will keep both
the President and Mrs. Roosevelt
at Hyde Park for good part OF
the time they are not travelling
during the next month.
Tomorrow night the President
goes on the air with another Of
his "fireside chats" which will
include not only a report on his
findings in the drought area but
also an important announcement
concerning the unemployment OF
people on relief rolls. The latter.
it is understood, will be in the
nature of challenge to business
and industry to produce employ
ment commensurate with the de-
