The great number of immisrants ar- riving at Bllis island, and the delays necessary in giving them a thorough examination, makes it necessary that the government should enlarge the buildings there. Tt often happens that several thousand imumigrants are forced to enjoy the hospitality of the government for days while investiga- tions are being made s to their health and legal status. With five thousand Smmigrants arriving in New York Larbor in-a single day, the govern- ment must often play host on a very liberal scale. Last year upwards of 900,000 aliens were inspected, under the immigration laws, at the island. Tespite the many buildings on the. island, Unecle Sam frequently runs whort of guest chambers. An appro- priation of $465,000 has been asked from comgress for new buildings. It is proposed to equip special rooms where & sclentific inspection of doubt- tul allens may be made, while the cabin passengers may be cared for with some degree of comfort. Mean- while an appropriation of $70,000 has been made for immigration stations on Pelican island, Galveston, Texas, with the idea of deflecting some part of the tide of immigration from New York. HOW IT I8 EXPLAINED. Champ Clark of Missouri, the com- ing speaker of the house of repre- sentatives, is being referred to as the dehorned and the denatured speaker, because the new speaker will be shorn of all power. The power of appoint- ing committecs, which his predeces- sors have enjoyed, is taken from him. He will sit in the chair and preside as the agent of the governing oli- xarchy of the house, the committes on ways and means, which will select the jeint committees, without appeal. In & word, the democratic caucus has made a goat of Speaker Clark, and, | contrary to expectations, he {s as sub- | missive as a lamb. An exchange ac- counts for this as follows: “That Champ Clark should -be so complaisant as he shows himself Is only explainable on the supposition that he reaily believes he is a, presi- dential possibility for 1912, and is anx- ious not to be handicapped by any of the embarrassments that might easily overtake a speaker equipped with avem a molety of the old-time power of the.place. The promptness with which an Ohio member who attempted start a boom for Harmon was sup- pressed certainly lends color to the suspiclon that the house leaders are at least dangling the nomination prize before the eyes of the speaker that is t0 be. THE MOVING-PICTURE BUSINESS The moving-picture business spread throughout the civilized world, and the cheap entertainment calls to- gether milllons every day. We do not think of Russia as & lively show coun- try, and it is rather surp: that the American consul general at Mos- <cow reports that there are eighty moving-picture shows in his city and about the same number in St. Peters- purg. The country supports 1,200 such places of entertainment. Last year 108,000,000 admissions were recorded and the managers took in more than $21,000,000. Not only was amusement provided, but the educational features of the moving pictures were utilized for the purpose of instructing the peo- ple Bow to fight the plague of Asiatic cholera.

The situa- tion is exactly what it has been in the past. The have merits of the whole question been debated a great deal re- cently, the manufacturers contending that any provision requiring the weighing of each package will .in- | crease the cost of food in packages, | that where the package food is sell- ing for exactly what it is, and along- side of it the same commodity s of- fered in bulk, giving the consumer & free choice, there can be no reason to complain. On the other hand, the ar- gument is made that if a statement of the weight was made on the package it would aid in securing a lower cost of living. In North Dakota and Ne- braska this has not proved true, but in a number of instances the contrary has resulted. ‘There does not seem to be two sides to the question that this legislation should not be entered upon by the states untll after congress has acted and given the precise language of the requirement. There are a number of bills now pending before congress on which there have been a great many hearin, ‘Which of these various bills, if any, will be passed by congress, no one can tell. Until congress does act, any action by the states would throw the entire subject into hopeless con- fusion. That the states would act dif- ferently is evident from past sxperi- ence and from an examination of the present weight provisions of North Dakota and Nebraska which proceed on widely different theories, Mean- while the entire question is at present being litlgated under ihe Nebraska law and will be presented to the Unit- ed States supreme court within a year at most. Absolute uniformity on the subject of pure-food laws, so that commerce | may flow freely without regard to state lines, is a condition necessary for all. Any proposal seeking to overturn the absolute uniformity now prevail- ing under the national law and the ws of thirty-nine states, including onnecticut, is a step backward and | prejudicial to the public interest.

A glaring fault of Mr. Aldrich’s new banking scheme is that it takes three columns of space in the papers to exploit it. Governor Foss could not decline to give Senator Lodge his credentials. Tt must have been a very trying experi- ance to him. A Chicago doctor is of the opinion that a cold is worth all it costs to a man hecause it keeps him from eatch- ing anyting worse. If Senator Lodge's clectlon had been unanimous he might have felt a lit- | tle better, but his honors would have been no more secure.

Rich foods and fear of water ars potent causes of a muddy skin, For a it you haven’t amy disin- fectant u‘::‘nrm"m( and water. e T It is of the utmost importance to keep the gums healthy or teeth cannot e sound, and any tendency to bleed or receding gums should be checked lmmlcaunly or serfous damage will result. A, teaspoonful of warm honey taken every 20 minutes has a surprising ef- fect on catarrh. Homey should al- ‘ways be kept handy, as it is invaluable in cases of illness caused by catching cold. Olive oil is an excellent fattener. Some can take a tablespoonful after each meal easily. Tt stimulates and makes actlve digestive organs, clears the complexion and makes the eyes bright and sparkling. It 1s decidedly risky te wear high- neck underwear during the day and low-neck gown to a dance in the even- ing. Always take a large silkc scarf of ample size with you to the dance to throw over your shoulders when you stop dancing. Before retiring take an aloohol rub. For a toothache cure fill a small cup with boiling vinegar. Dip a piece of cotton wool into the vinegar and rub the gum; let the vinegar be as hot as you can endure. Stuff the aching tooth with some wool. In five minutes the pain will have ceased. Sometimes, however, two applications must be made. DICTATES OF FASHION. The fichu lines are evident, especial~ 1y on chiffon blouses. Visiting dresses, even when made short, are almost sumptuous. Many of the black hats are trimmed high with black malines. Paris has a new fancy for shading her feathers and even her veils as well as her gowns. For formal dfternoon wear chinchfl- la and plain ermine form scarfs, muffs and sometimes hats. The long black velvet sash, with its big butterfly bow and its long pointed ends, is very. modish. The cabochon of wooden beads or of metallic thread graces the turned- up brim of a,beaver or felt. Velvet brocade is used on all mates rials—on chiffon, satin, crepe de chine, moire and mousseline de soie. Immense white hats are draped with metal tissue over blue or rose. Thick cords or tassels trim them. Evening Wrans. The lnes are straight, loose and long. Sleeves are ample and are of the kimono type. There Is no seam at the armhole, although a few have the ma- terial joined at the top of the shoulder, extending down into the sleeve por- tion. This is for narrower velvets, satins, etc. Huge revers are quite evident. One usually crosses over to the side and fastens under jeweled buttons or cord- ed ornaments. Sailor collars, straight or with modi- fled lin are chic on evening wraps. The eollars may be of lace, fur or em- broidered net. Tassels of giit, silk or silver are used to weight revers and collars. Every wrap has a lovely linins. Useful, too, must this be. Large pock- ets for coin purses and ha fefs, and, buttoned securely over the m- ings, are the main . e are shirred or. plaited te relieve strain. A Delisious Breakfast Food. A pint of cold bolled chopped ham, four eggs. Break the eggs into a bowl, but do not beat them; put a piece of butter size of an egg into the frying pan: when melted and hot pour i the eggs and add the ham with 'a little pepper; stir constantly till done, which will be when each particle of ham is coated with the efi B‘ not beating the eggs, bits of yolk and white are seen through. the mixture when cooked. Serve with graham gems. Sailor's Duff. To a quart of flour add three heap- ing teaspoonfuls of baking powder and one teaspoonful of salt, also three tea- spoonfuls of sugar; mix this with sweet milk as vou would short bis- cuit dough, then add two tablespoons- ful of melted butter and a cup of seed- ed raisins; mould this as quickly and lightly as possible into a round loaf and steam two hours. To be eaten hot with Brandy sauce. This pudding is often gerved as a hollday dish to sailors, hence its mame. Baked Apples. Select large, tart apples. Wash and wipe dry. Remove the centers with an apple corer. Arrange them In a pan, with a very littles water, fllling the centers with sugar. Dip the syrup over them two or three times fle baking. Serve with cream. These may be made more delicate by paring the apples and baking in an earthen pud ding' dish, filling the centers with su- gar, chopped raigins and nuts, a piece of butter, and brown 15 minutes in a hot oven. Eog Baked in Tomato. ‘When vou want a tasty delicacy for lunch, bake an egg in a tomato. Cut off the top of the tomato; scoop out the inside and drop the egg into the cup thus formed. Beke in a hot oven and serve on hot buttcred toast. Keeping Sandwiches Soft. It is often a problem when a great many sandwiches have to be mads how to keep them soft and fresh. But these can be kept perfectly fresh if they are wrapped in & paper napkin wrung out of hot water and then placed in @ good cool place. Chinese Rice. The Chinese method of cooking rice differs from that of the ordinary housewife, and the rice, when done, instead of being a mushy, sticky paste, is spotlessly white and perfectly dry, and with each grain standing by itself. To attain these resuits, pick the rice over carefully, to remove all refuse: then wash it through several waters, rubbing it between the hands to re- move the conting of sta.rni'hy powder. When the water s perfectly clear you will know that thie rice 18 in fit condi- tion to be cooked. Have some water boiling in a saucepan, the proportions belng about two quarts of water to each half pint of rice. Sprinkle the rice in so slowly that the water will scarcely ‘stop boiling, and cook it at a gallop in order that the grains may be kept in motion while boiling. Do not stir or touch the rice in any way after the grains have commenced to soften. ‘When they are done drain off all the water and set the pan in the oven that the rice may swell. Do not let it ¢ook or brown, and serve it as soon as it has become thoroughly dry, which will probably be in less than ten minutes. TABLE ETIQUETTE “Please write some points of eti- quette on manners ar me table while receiving company and visitors.” The mechanics of table manners be- | &in with a correct posturs at the board, | and this position is as necessary in | one’s own home as in anothers. It is correct to sit perfectly erdct in the | chair, neither leaning back between | helping hands nor reaching forward to meet the morsel on the fork or the| soup in the spoon. A seat too close to | the table fiings out the elbows in an | ungainly manner; one too far away | from it bends the back and makes one | lable to. drop food on the clothing. | The proper position for the chair leaves the waist about eight inches | from the table. While the meal is in progress it is | ungraceful and impolite to put the el- bows on ths table, to trifle with bits of bread or the knives, forks and spoons, or to push the bread plate or glasses from their proper places. This last disarrangement of the “ecover, | which is the word for the individual | outfit at table, is to annoy & neat| hostess. who prides herself on a pret- ty table arrangement. and it is 2t any | time a careless and slovenly habit. | When not actively engaged in- replen- | ishing the invec creature the hands should He quietly in the lap, for this| reposeful bearing is the sign manuvai of good breedingz. ‘When everybody is seated at table— not before—the napkin is taken up from the plate across which it lies and opened out acrofs the knees. However beautiful a gown or splendid a gentle- man's evening get-up, It is the height of bad taste to pin the napkin up to the bodice or tuck one end into the waistcoat. One shake—the two hands| held to the right of the sitter—unfolds it sufficiently, and without more ado it is laid upon the lap. A neat person at table does mot wipe the lips often, but for removing a fish bone or any/! other forelgn substance from the mouth the napkin is invariably used,' and the object carried in its folds to the plate, where it is deposited. After the meal, when dining with friend the serviette may be folded and laid by the plate. The perfect hostess will also do this rather than make use of the napkin ring, as this move gives a look of home economy to a meal, and this is not desirable when strangers are present. I knfives and soup =poon are ¢ the right of the plate and the variou Turks used at ¢he left. The smaller | knife will be used for the emtree and the larger for the roast; the two forks| for these courses are generally the! same size. The knife is held in the right hand and is used exclusively for cutting food, and after this the fork Is shifted to the right band for eating. But save for such very small vege- tables as peas and beans, or for rice, the fork is not used spoonwise, but rather to 1lift conveniently shaped | pleces with the ends of the prongs. It is not thought elegant to mash up food vith the fork before eatine it, or to turn the fork over and pile up the other side with food. as some persons do, and’ though these things seem fair- 1y trifiing, they count In the summing up of perfeci table deportment. OQe’ grave offense with the fork is to ho'a it in the air witl 700d on it whiie talk- ing, and it is equally clumsy to keep knife and fork in the hand when the plate is passed up for a second heip- ing. The proper place for the Knife and fork when the plate is being pass. ed for the extra serving is at the s of it, handles together and fork prongs up. On completing , the knife and fork are lafd In this way strajght across the plate, handles to the rigat. Fish, meat, vegetables and made dishes are eaten with a fork, also sal- ad, melons and many sorts of ices and n lings. So where a lostess has a siylishly dressed table, and there | den. | makes the first is a guest who is likely to be green In the empioyment of the right utensils, it 48 considerate and well-bred to give the cue by taking up the proper imple- ment for the course, as the great va- riety of forks and spoohs now used on a smart table is sometimes bitterly embarrassing. Oysters, clams and terrapin are aiso fork foods, and it is thought a break in good manners to cut any of these things with a knife. Nelther is the knife used for any spe- cies of jarge fish or for lettuce of any sort. Tt is the hostess’ duty to have her lettuce leaves shredded inm fair- sized pieces and if these are still too large they are folded over with the fork and so lifted to the mouth. Soup is eaten from the side of the spoon and not the tip, and the opera- tion must be noiseless for the sake of manners and decency. There are a number of finger edi- bles, but these must be picked up with the right hand and while eating them the left is not called into play. These include radishes, colery, corn om cob, oltves, etc. Boiled eggs for a polite effect, are eaten directly from the shell, and us eggs are messy things to look at, the home habit of breaking them in @ ghass should not be encour- aged. Slow and quiet eating is an evidence of respect for one’s health and dignity. Fast and noisy eating indicates greed- = iness and the worst of breeding. The polite person aiso conveys bread to the mouth fn small morsels and never bites it from the slice or section placed on the bread plate. Liberally salting and peppering one’s food at another's table ,is considered bad form, unless the hostess invites the guest to use the | seasoning. Introducing unpleasant topics in conversation is also forbid- One must not say, “I don’t like when it is offered, but simply Salt .must not be put on the tablecloth for radishes or celery, bhut on the side of the plate. If an accident to the cloth occurs, a simple “Oh, dear, I'm so sorry,” is emough for the guest: i the hostess must look rather pleased then sorry for the accident, so as to put her guest at euse. The place of the guest at the table is a matter of sex. A lady generally sits at the host's right hand, a gen- tleman at the hostess’ right hand. The host carves, the hostess serves the soup (If there is w tureen) and gives the signal for beginning the meal by taking up her soup Spoon. If a guest is tardy in finishing at the end of a meal, she must still make a little pre- temse of eating so as to not confuse the visitor. When the meal is over she move to leave, th~ table. but this must not be done until there is @ surety that nobody is still engaged with the important business of the knife and fork. The guest may lay down his or her eating implements at any time, but th- napkin is not taken from the lap until the hostess removes hers. With the conclusion of the meal there are some important little don'ts. Neither the hostess nor the guest must push away the last plate used and brusi nbs along the cloth in Httie heaps. It is tho thine to leave the last plate. or the fluger bowl—u necessary Qetadl for a gmart house—in its place, 1ift the napkin, partiaily fold it and la it on the table edge; then rive quietly and slowiy and leave the table with out pushing the chair back to it—tha. is. if there is 2 inald or man servant; otherwise, in the matter of the ochair, it is 2 good thing to follow the lead of_the hostess. In leaving the dining rcom a man srands aside to allow women to pre- code him and the ladies go out with- out adjusting their costumes and the gentlemen without making use of that obnoxjous instrument called the tooth- pick. It is uot unnsual, however, a mi.ng | No, thank you,” if it is not desired. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Reply to ET—-F-#M Tracy. Mr. Editor: What s wonderful tiing the imagination is? When imag- !ination and methematics .2. mixed, | {jihal, marvelous results are obtained | § pyATINEFS | from, and he has figured out that “Ob- | Berver” is an enemy, when he is & re- {publican who was ‘when Mr. Tra- ¢y was made a member of the Gas and Electric commission, and who had re- ally hoped some day to vote for Mr. “Pracy for mayor of Norwioh; and what @ pen picture of a friend he did give to'lf"lllr 1".esd1ng public. s is not so strange when thé spir- it of his letter and his manner of “'fi" as shown by himself,, is consid- ered. Mr. Tracy does not think such a small matter as the cost of electric bulbs, flve cents' a month tp hundreds of electric lght patrons, is worthy of computation, although it would make considerable of a change in a percent- age account, because it is too insignifi- cant. When he admits he has pur- posely omitted such figures he hes conceded that his percer are not 4s accurate as they might be. Has he {ever hunted for a week or two for an error of five cents in a trial balance? { There is nothing insignificant about such financial exactness, is there? Mr. Tracy thinl it John Roe to light his home pays five dollars for §0 kilowatt hours, and Richard Doe for {running his elevator pays one dollar for 50 kilowatt hours, it is ridiculous to inquire if $4 in every $5 is not too great an indirect tax upon John Roe to make busness inviting for Richard Doe. It does not seem so to me, and It may not to other interested taxpayers. Mr. Tracy tells the people that the electric plant cost the ity $329,000, omits to mention the bonded debt of $400,000 which carried the cost to about @ third of a million, and tells the peo- pie it is worth & milllon; and has not had put into it e dollar of the taxpay- ers’ money, although it was taken over on credit and is in effect a lien upon every property owner's holdings in the city cz Norwich for the total amount of cost and debt. If this is true, John Roe can buy & house of Richard Doe worth $2,000, sive his note for $1,000, assume & mort- gage of $1,000, value it at three thou- sand, and declare there is not a penny of his money in it, which he would have interpreted that the property has not cost him a penny, althot he is liable for every cent of it. Is such talk gixslnc!s talk, or just munictpal twad- e? It is not necessary for “Observer” to ask Mr. Tracy any more questions. It is not necessary ° that “Obmerver’ should disclose his identity, since he is not secking popular favor or applause from the people. He is an old fash- ioned mean who an idea that a mortgage ig a debt and that monetary Uabilities spell money expenditure ev- ery time. Of course, T am thankful to ex-Pres- |- ident Tracy for his condescension to answer a few questions to an anony- mous inquirer, and for submitting a few comparisons specially selected to support his side of the case. er” has ways considersd himself too shrewd to get caught in a #old brick game; and he bad hoped Mr. Tracy would answer honest inquiries In an affable mood for the information of common people like himself. He is v to have to say that Mr. Tracy's bility, his sarcasm and his open- Iy displaved 1aethods make it appear as if he knew he had a gold brick prop- osition and was afrald an inquirer would find it out. It would not be right to irritate Mr. Tracy by asking any more questions: and if we should venture we have his positive word that he will not answer, because he does not know whence they emanate. The man not the issue is what he confessedly considers import- ant. We would simply say for his en- lightehment that “Observer” is mem- orabile romen. OBSERVER.
