There appears to be nothing irra- tional or surprising about the report of Highway Commissioner Bennett in which he states the amounts which will be required in meeting the ex- pense of taking over the present rail- road bridge across the Thames river between Groton and New London. Con- necticut acted wisely when it accept- ed the offer of the New Hayen road to give the bridge to the state as soon as it constructs and puts into use its new bridge at that point, and it can- not fail to recognize the need of meet- ing the legitimate expenses in connec- tion therewith, The expenses recommended cover the value of the land which must be acquired for the approach and the making of the necessary changes that the approach may be available for highway uses. They are only such as must be recognized as necessary when that million dollar structure is trans- fer~~d to the state. Such a sum as the comuaissioner approves would not be sufficient to build the plers for a new highway bridge at that point and it can be fully appreciated that such en outlay is insignificant in compar- ison with the value which is actually being acquired for nothing. As a bus- iness proposition it Is one that should be eagerly grasped, The control of the bridge cannot be secured by the state until the road Is through with it. Neither can the ap- proach. Just when that will be is as yet problematical. Such an outlay as is required will not be needed until that time arrives. If, however, that should be before the sitting of another general assembly the authority and means for meeting this cost ought to be in the possession of the proper of- ficials. The very same reasons which urged the acceptance of the bridge for the betterment of the trunk highway of the state apply equally forcibly to this recommended expense for approaches. It would be short-sight- ed to delay and render useless this bridge after it was transferred until another legislature met. NEW NAVAL RANKS. It has required some time to get congress to realize the need of it, but the action recently taken in making provision in the navy bill whereby fleet commanders may have the rank'of ad- mirals and vice admirals is as sensible s it is needed. It does not repre- sent a disposition to secure eficiency through titles or gold braided uni- forms, but it means that the need of having the officers of the United States navy equal in rank with those of wther navies with which they may happen to be placed s recognized. Bo- fore this action rear admirals of the navy of this country might possess greater ability yet be forced when co- pperating with foreign forces to take second place to those of other navies who happened to outrank them accord- Ing to title simply because a different tystem of ranks was maintained here. So long as the navies of foreign coun- ries maintained ranks which the ranks of our own navy failed to equal, ‘here was an unjust handicap placed pon the American naval commanders, >ut this is now overcome by the new egislation. There are no permanent admirals ‘reated and the office of vice admiral teed not be filled at all times, wmt provisions are made for widging the past shortcomings n a manner which appears ad- risable and sufficient. The embar- mssment to United States naval offi- Mals through the withholding of titles vhich correspond to those of other ountries having been removed, a tep that has been long and earnest- y sought is at last taken. USURPING PARENTAL DUTIES. It is an interesting question that 1as arisen In the city of Lynn where ) high school principal is being asked o explain his actions when he prom- ses to punish the boys unless they re- pect his orders that they must not moke cigarettes, and the girls unless hey refrain from calling the boys by phone and making dates for evenings. It may be felt in that city that that rincipal is exceeding his rights or ncroaching upon the prerogatives of he parents, but it must e evident ven to the excited ones that there 3 a condition existing there which e w arne A ocught to be righted, and if the par- ents are not tending to their duties as they should, and looking out for the welfare of their children, it would ap- pear that Instead of halting his actions and recalling his orders, they can do nothing better than uphold him in his difficult task. Whatever the result may be, it can- not fail to direct greater attention to the dangers of those very conditions which the principal was endeavoring to overcome. It should bring negli- gent parents to a realization of their responsibilities and unless they so look upon the matter, without permitting the action of the principal in exceed- ing his authority to overshadow the vital point at stake, they will be in- flicting the greatest injury upon them- selves and their children. Too often do parents know their duty but fail to exercise it, and yet resent it when another shows interest enough to look out for their childre: NEW ENGLAND RURAL PROGRESS It remains to be seen what the New England Federation for Rural Pro- @ress will do for this section of the country. There can be no question but. what there is plenty of opportu- nity for much improvement along the lines which are indicated by its name. Prof. Carver at the Boston meeting declared that the need of the New England states is a new crop.of pio- neers in order to get better crops out of their land ,and this may be true, but the thing is to get the pioneers or to bring the New Bngland people to a realization of their advantages and the possibilities with which they are blessed but of which they are not getting the full benefit. Action is what is needed and of course action is what might be ex- pected from pioneers. With the spirit and go-to-itiveness of the early set- tlers applied to the development of the agricultural interests of these states much better results could be expected. That nearly two-thirds of the tillable land remains unimproved is perhaps one of the best indications of the needs of a new crop of pioneers, If this new organization can awaken New Englanders to a realization of their situation, if it can inspire a greater interest in the proper development of the land and in the advantage of the markets, it will materially ald the forces which are and have been for some time at work on this very same problem. There are plenty of examples of what can be done in and by New Englanders with New England condi- tions and with the proper study of the matter together with the expert advice to be had a great many more can do the same. The aim of the federation is in the right direction, RISK IN GETTING EVIDENCE. Only those who are directly con- nected with the task of securing evi- dence in connection with tie violation of law, and the many twists and turns which are open to the accused in set- ting up a defense or explaining away certain situations, can fully appreciate the necessity of the New York police going as far as they did in the plot of the bomb-throwers. Even though Former Chief Devery of the metropolitan police force should be thoroughly acquainted with the re- quirements when dealing with men of such a criminal class, and, of course is, there may be ground aside from his to be expected opposition for his criticism of the ‘recent action when he declares that the police allowed the matter to go too far when they per- mitted bombs not only to be taken into the cathedral, but actually al- lowed them to be lighted before mak- ing the arrests. This of course en- dangered the lives of the many people who were there at the time, and also meant the taking of a tremendous risk when it is consldered what damage might have been done to the edifice in case there was the least slip of the plans. The police demonstrated that the en- tire affair was carefully planned and carried out even though it had in- tensely dramatic features. Not a cog slipped and it is therefore impossible to claim that every safeguard was not taken for insuring the safety of lives and property. In that case all is well and the culprits were caught red- handed. The police were dealing with desperate men and dangerous explo- sives and they took the required chances, but it is a question whether the same perfect results could be guar- anteed in all such cases, EDITORIAL NOTES. The indications are that Turkey will soon be satisfied with most any place to roost. It is a lucky thing for congress that it never expects much of a eulogy anyway. The man on the corner says: Only disagreeable people make a practice of telling the truth at all times. Now that the mine sweepers are at work the clean-up season has struck on in earnest in the Dardanelles. Now comes complaint because the free seed packages do not carry a coupon for a hoe, spade and rake, Tt is reported that Yale in China expands, and from what is heard it would seem that Japan hopes to also. Can it be that that New York city, which seeks to turn its library into a jail, is responding to the demands of its citizens? Cremation is sald to be showing a marked increase in Europe, but that is not in keeping with the increased death rate. Isn't it about time a report was available on the number of wild cherry trees that were destroyed by the Feb- ruary 22nd assault? There is no question but what Pres- ident Wilson will be just as well sat- isfled to run certain things without the handicap of congress. There are plenty of girls who can sympathize with the Michigan man who has been sentenced to wash dish- es for a period of six months. Further evidence is given of the need of an immigration law that will keep -the anarchists out of the coun- try and suppress those that are in. No investigation is necessary to dis- close the reason why the rank of ma- jor general has been conferred upon Colonel Goethals. He has been en- titled to it for some time. By his reappointment of Insurance Commissioner Mansfield Governor Hol- comb.not only retains a good man, but again endorses the judgment of his predecessor, The welfare of the state is being cared for. WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE Rusty flatirons can be cleaned by covering the rusty parts with sweet oil and powdered quicklime and al- lowing them to stand a few days, then washing them with hot water and plenty of sal soda. Soiled and finger-marked birdseye maple can be cleaned by washing with a soft rag and lukewarm water to which a little kereosene has been add- ed. Rub dry quickly and polish with a soft cloth. A thin coat of potash left on the sink over night once a week will rp- move the ugly stains that will not vield to kerosene. It should be ap- plied with care, as it is poisonous. A piece of art gum will clean white leather girdles. A gentle rubbing will remove all spogs that come from rub- bing against objects in the hand or on the outside. A teaspoonful of dry mustard rub- bed into the hands, after preparing onions or fish, will remove the odor completely. It should be rubbed in as if it were soap. To test bread dough and to make sure it has risen sufficiently for bak- ing, press the finger on the dough. If the hole remains the dough is in poor condition. To test a broom, press the edge against the floer. If the straws re- main in a solid mass, the broom is a good one; if they bristle out and bend down, it isn't. If you want to be sure®that the bread pudding will be light, add a lit- tle baking powder to it. It is a good idea to keep a piece of sandpaper over the sink to clean pots and pans with. Never buy spices in large quanti- ties—they lose their flavor before you can use them up. JAPANESE PARASOLS. From present indications the flat Japanese types of parasols will play an unusually strong part in this sea- son’s parasol demand: Many novel- ties of this character are being offered. Some of the richest have dark bord- ers, with here and there a delicate bit of hand embroidery in gold. Again, odd looking velvet birds are appliqued over the inside surface of the parasol. This idea is effective when developed in orange and blue tones. Handles are extremely long and in most in- stances harmonize in color and design with the ferrule end. WHITE BELTS. One of the new white serge suits made for southern wear shows an un- usual belt. It is of dull white leather, about two inches wide, perhaps nar- rower. It is fastened in front by means of a leatner-covered buckle, and on the left side, a few inches from the buckle, is a little pocket just about the width of the belit. It clasps shut with a snap fastener. NO NEED OF STARCH. Wheén one wishes to starch small deligate articles, which do not re quire much stiffening, such as baby caps, thin collars and so forth, an easy plan, says the Chicago Herald, is to iron the articles while still wet on a starched pillowcase. Enough starch will be taken up in the small article from the large one to render it daintily crisp and slightly stiffened. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. ‘When bathing fresh air is essential, as the respiratory organs work faster when enjoying either a hot or cold plunge, and to shut one's self up 4 small, close, steamy room without a particle of ventilation takes a cer- tain beneficial stimulus away from the bath itself. The old German saying, ‘An apple a day keeps the doctor away,” holds good of that toothsome fruit. Baked or raw, there is no article of diet as nutriticus and as a cleaner of the system in winter time, when one is forced to eat heavy and starchy foods for health’s sake, it is excellent. Brushing the teeth Is not enough for their good health. Let the mouth be purified for its rest by rinsing it with a cleansing mouth bath. Llse some good sterilizing agents, such as camphor, hydrogen peroxide, the pro- portion being a few drops to a glass- ful of warm water. Then fill the mouth with milk of magnesia, allow- ing it to permeate every corner of the mouth and all the crevices be- tween the teeth. X Deep breathing will help to reduce the waist measure and enlarge the bust. The stretching _exercises, too,\ are splendid as waist depleters. Raise the arms high above the head, then holding knees straight, try to touch the floor with the finger tips. Stand erect, place hands on hips, bend from waist as far as possible to the right, then to the left. A screen in the sick room is almost indispensable, for it is needed to keep light from the patient's eves, to ‘guard the bed from drafte or to shut out the sight of medicine bottles and so forth. An excellent sanitary screen is made by tacking white oilcloth on to a frame, then painting on in oil a pretty scene, as birds or butterflies. These screens can be washed as often as necessary. Alcohol _applied several times a week to the scalp will cure dandruff. If you find this makes the scalp and hair too dry, add six teaspoonsfuls of castor-oll to one pint of alcohol. No one should neglect curing dandruff once it has appeared. If allowed to continue the hair will become very thin and baldness may result. It is very necessary to keep the scalp clean while it is thus diseased. Dandruff is infectious, so be very careful that no one uses your comb and brush, or wears your hat. These are the things that usually spread the disease. TO CLEAN PIANO KEYS. iano keys should be cleaned by wiping_them with a eoft cloth dipped in_a little milk, but care must be taken to polish them at once and not to use too damp a cloth, or the mois- ture will run down between the keys and may serlously Injure the {nstru- meni TULLE TRAINS. Many of the new evening frocks have tulle trains. One white gown, veiled with deep rose tulle, has a tulle train that is gath into a three inch heading that is fastened straight across the back from one shoulder to the other. At the end the train is gathered into another full heading of the same sort, and s, therefore, square in outline. . DICTATES OF FASHION. Some of the new belts. coats have fur Jabots are returning to us from the long ago, because they suit most women and give an air of distinction to many dresses tHat need some allev- fation from somberness. Embroidered taffeta is one of the new silks. The fuller a skirt is the shorter it is apt to be. There is no lessering of the fond- ness for sashes. The new square meshed veiling is very much liked. Small women and young girls favor short coats. One of the new combinations is navy blue and dark purple. The flowered frock has returned with all its freshness. New crocheted scarfs are fashioned in irregular patterns which suggest the art nouveau designs. To be fashionable the hair should be dressed so close to the head as to make it appear egg shaped. Some of the new plaited skirts have the plaits stitched down to the hip, where they are allowed to flare. Liberty velveteen is an ideal mater- ial for rest gowns of a comparatively inexpensive order. In japonica pink and in all the fashionable shades of vellow this stuff is lovely. It looks ell combined with plaited chiffon and bordered with narrow bands of skunk. The Sarah Siddons neckband of narrow black velvet continues in favor among younger women. There is something inexpressibly couquettish about this bit of black velvet around a white throat. The ribbon is tied in a pert bow under one ear, and in con- junction with the small hat tipped the Sarah Siddons neckband is as saucy and daring a mode as has been seen in many a da; TO CLEAN PAINTINGS. Peel and grate a raw potato and mix it with enough cold water to make a thin paste. Rub the picture with this, using a small sponge, then sponge with clear cold water and dry vith a finé cloth. Only a small por- tion should be done at a time. TO CLEAN SPATS. To clean light colored or drab cloth spats or gaiters and shoe tops peel and wash some potatoes, then grate them into a basin and while quite wet apply to the surface of the gaiters and shoe tops. Put in the open air to dry and then brush the grated potato off with a clean brush. FLOUR IN FAT. To prevent lard or butter from srattering out when potatoes, egss, etc., are dropped into it to fry, sift a wee bit of flour into the fat just be- fore they are put into it. LAUNDRY HINTS. Some of the prettiest lingerie waists are so simple this season that laun- dering them at home is by no means d_lftlculi, and if one only has the time to' spare for it there will surely be a saving of money, for one needs quite a number of waists during warm weather and laundry bills soon run up. To wash, lay the blouse in warm water made sudsy with a_good white soap and a little borax. If much soil- ed leave over night. Next morning squeeze out and wash in warm suds, lifiing up and down in the water, but not rubbing. Squeezing will be enough. Never rub soap on flne fa- brics, because doing so thickens the threads and makes the material look coarse. When clean rinse in warm water and then in cold, If the blouse looks yellow use a few drops (very few) of liquid bluing. Starch is necessary to success, but only in the smallest quantity. Mix a tablespoonful of raw starch in a little cold water and pour on boiling water until it becomes the consistency of cream. Pass the blouse through this and squeeze. Next lay on a clean towel and roll up. Leave for some hours and then take out, Shake well, and If still wet hang up until only damp. Have good hot irons and see that they are thor- oughly clean. Use good mat and if necessary fine emery paper. Any bits of black on the irons will surely be transferred in flecks to any starched Eoods, as most amateur laundresses know. Embroidery and laces are ironed on the wrong side. To iron, first do col- lar and cuffs. Next the sleeves. The backs come next in order, and, lastly, the front. RESONSIBILITY. It is the girl who is willing to as- sume responsibility who is promoted. She is the sort the boss wants. If you are ambitious do not be afraid to take on a responsibile position if the chance is given you, and do not shirk any responsibility that happens along. If you say “yes” when you are ask- ed whether you will be responsible for such or such a business statement, if your employer feels that he can leave you to answer certain letters because he knows you will be responsible for what you put into them, you are the girl he will be glad to have in his of- ce. Of course, there is a risk in assum- ing this attitude. It means more work on your part, a greater knowledge of what you are doing and why you are doing “it. You must understand the business you are engaged in before you can take responsibility concerning Your work. And it is for these very reasons that you are of greater value to your employer. It Is worth a good deal to him to feel that he can rely on this sense of responsibility in you. You are to some -extent his partner. He can give you his confidence. And Te- member this: It isn’t speed as a sten- ographer that gets the big salary. It is your ell around value fo your em- Dloyer. It is the girl who is ready to meet a sudden demand without hesitation, Wwho can flll a gap, even though the gap be above her, without slumping, who is successful. Her employer won’t let her go in a hurry; he knows how all too Tare her type is! If vou are determined to get ahead be that girl. Your life will be a thousand times :{L:br? interesting as well as more prof- e. CONCERNING WOMEN. Turkish women are now taking up the study of medicine.

TO REMOVE RUST. To remove rust spots on bath tubs and basins apply muriatic acid with a mop. As soon as the discoloration is removed, the acid should be thor- oughly rinsed off with clear water. The acid works like magic; it is al- most instantaneous in its effect and the labor of scrubbing is saved. INK SPOTS. Ink spots will come out absolutely if they are soaked in milk before washing. Immerse the spot and al- low it to soak until it disappears. Pianologue, Dances Mat. 10c; Eve, 10c -20c Shows 2:30, 7, 8:45 PHOTOPLAYS SPECIAL TWO REEL FEATURE The Governor-Maker With Wm.

Well, why not?—Providence Bulletin. Governor Holcomb has signed the Isbell civil service law and accepted Tesponsibility for it. Now that he has done so, we fancy the frantic wails of on will subside and sensible tion ensue that the state is safe against any inroads upon civil merit that will mean disaster more than to a few democratic pie . eaters. The governor knows what he is about and Senator Isbell has distinguished vin- dication.—New London Telegraph. There is a bill now before the legis- lature designed to take forty per cent. of the license revenue from towns for the benefit of the state. At present ninety per cent. goes to the towns and ten per cent. to the county. It is stated that the temperance people do not oppose it and that the liquor in- terests have no objections. That seems surprising for unquestionably such a law would strengthen temperance sen- timent several per cent. One of the strongest reasons for license in the minds of a considerable number of people who are not in sympathy with the liquor interests is thatthe revenue is needed by the towns. Many people RECIPES. Mock Chicken Salad—Get a small piece of veal, about 15 cents’ worth. Steam until tender, —chop with an equal quantity of celery and dress with French dressing first.

Oyster Loaves—This is a good old Virginia ¢ish that commends itself to the housekeeper as not only delicious but easily prepared. It may be served in small “loaves” or “boxes” for in- dividual serving or in a large crust loaf like the Vienna. For the latter cut off the top of the loaf and scoop out the crumbs, leaving it like a box. Fill the space with oysters that have just_been brought to a scalding point in their own liquor and well seasoned with salt, pepper and butter. Add one tablespoonful of cream, sprinkle some of the crumbs taken from the loaf on top of the oysters, dot with butter and replace the top of the loaf. Put into & dripping pan, pour some of the liquor of the oysters over it and put in hot oven to crisp. Take care that it does not scorch. Set on hot platter. Slice and _serve same.’ Some people like an addition of a little lemon juice. For small loaves Parker house rolls are best. Vacuum cleaners are finding a good market in Scotland.
