Very little encouragement is being secured by Henry Ford in trying to get- together a representative body of Amgericans, including leading na- tional and state figures for the pur- pose of taking them to Europe as peace advocates. With the exception of ‘a few instances Mr. Ford's invita- tion is turned down and a variety of reasons are given including “too busy”, and while nothing might be considered mofe important than bringing peace to "Europe in which most anyone wotild be glad to have a hand, yet those who give that answer or its equivalent readily recognize that the chances of Mr. Ford's scheme suc- ceeding are so slight that it does not warrant the devotion of the time that would be required. Saturated with the idea of bringing about peace Mr. Ford proposes to rush in where those he would have go_with him understand the folly of treading. It is recognized that the time is not ripe and that the confiict has not progressed to the stage where either side is willing to make the sac- rifices which the other would demand. Such a peace party cannot tell the ‘belligerents that they have been whip- ped or expect to gain support for their program through setting forth the tre- mendous losses which are being made or the effects which the war is bound to have upon the future. All of that is 48 evident to those engaged in the horrible combat as it can_ be made through any picture which Mr. Ford’s party could present. The fact of the matter is that the war has not progressed to the point where peace if established would be permanent and untfl that is in sight it is a waste of time and effort and a risk of friendship to try to bring about peace. RAISING THE MONEY, The question of providing the nec- essary revenue to meet the expendi- tures that will be required by this country, however extensive the plan may be which is endorsed by con- gress for adequate preparedness, is bound to be an important one before the inational legislators during the comfng session. This has long been recopnized and is emphasized by the recept statement put forward by Sec- retagy McAdoo concerning the finances of the country and the recommenda- tior® which he makes that taxation Ds dncreased rather than resort to bond issues for supplying the cash whidh it is indicated will be needed. ‘THe suggestion is made that an im- portgnt contribution would be made thropsh the repeal of that portion of the sugar schedule which provides that sugar will come into the country free aiter next spring hut continuing re- duced tariff on that commodity. The fact that the sugar tax was cut has re- sulted in the I0ss of many million of dollars ever since it went into ef- fect, and at a time when the country has been in need of just such revenue points out as nothing else can the ad- visability of not only stopping as soon as possible the provision that it will ome in free but when the country is looking about for additional sources >f rvenue the very fact that a tre- mendous loss hds already been sus- :aindd through the wiping out of the fovernment income which was for- merly received from sugar, it would 1ppear to be time to give serious con- sideration to the return of the duty which was tdken away. It is the in- icrests of the country which should ‘eceifie first consideration and the to be carried on without a being made to stop it can be 1 understood. It is not going to many years before the robins, blue-| birds and bobolinks will be a rarity, SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. To make a waist ruffie look like new, fron it flat, as usual, then re- move needle and shuttle from sew- ing machine, adjust ruffle attach- ment and run the hem of the ruffie througn, using the long gaue for the ruffler. - Fruit may be canned by baking with great success. Sterilize the jars by boiling 15' minutes, then pack with clean, uncooked fruit and pour on a syrup made of sugar and water. Set in a hot oven for 10 minutes; remove and seal while hot in the usual way. That the Aubudon societies have done excellent work in behaif of the birds cannot be questioned, but where they were once needed to give pro- tection to the feathered songsters they now have plenty ‘of work ahead to prevent them from being extermi- nated, and the cause in which they are interested is one in which the whole cguntry should lend support. DEMOCRATS AND A CLOTURE RULE. “Whether or not the democratic lead- ers who have been advocating it will Insist upon making a change in the senate rules whereby it will mean the establishment of a cloture, a parlia- mentary method of ending a debate and securing an immediate vote upon a measure before a legislative ‘body, remains to be seen. 5 It has been prompted by the experi- ences of the past which have resulted In the defeat of certain measures through filibusters to which even those who might have been bound by caucus action have given support, but the idea of shutting off expression or deliberation for the purpose of jam- Grape julce is made thus: Wash and remove ~stems from 10 _pounds of grapes. .

DICTATES OF FASHION. Plaid crepe plouses are something new. Pink seems to increase in favor for corsets. Hanging pockets on belts remain a feature. A great many jet buttons are used as’ trimming. Chiffon ruchings finish the edges of evening coats. The wider the braid on suits the more fashionable. The new jumper effect is seen in everyday dresses. Buttons are one of the most effec- tive decorations. Some of the new litle velvet hats will go with anything. hge greased, f bé, u’:; i‘.‘.‘ st for to it the cake m! cling to the pan while baking. ming through bills which are detri- mental to the nation's welfare is a dangerous onme. The fact is that any move which is made in Dbehalf of a It means the denial of the right to be heard to those who may be in the wminority and It would give control entirely to one section of the country. Likewise does it mean the checking of cloture rule " is undemocratic. much of the information and more e: | pecially the facts about certain meas- ures which it is better to know and which those who are representing the various states of the unjon should know before action is taken. Thus to shut off debate in the sen- ate is as dangerous as it would be in any deliberative body, and when the democrats stop to think that what- ever step they might take in this di- recticn would react upon the minorit which they have for so many years constituted and promise to again in the fature, the wisdom of rules as they are, even though they are today in the majority, ought to make itself felt. SHOP EARLY. With Christmas less than weeks off and the postoffice depart- ment urging the people to cooperate with it in the handling of the large increase in business which always oc- curs at this season by the early send- ing of packages, it is well that that same spirit should be applied to all Christmas shopping. Early Christmas shopping reacts to the benefit of all concerned as has been demonstrated every year since the movement was started. Convenience, consideration of oth- ers, better satisfaction in making pur- chases and in filling wants, and more attentive salespeople all result from joining in this effort instead of wait- ing until the last gen days, week ot minute and contributing to the con- tusion which is o well known on those occasions. ., There are a great many who can shop early just as well as they can do it late. The delay with them is chiefly the result of procrasti- nation and with the business houses getting out their holiday stocks of goods there is absolutely no excuse for it. Even though Christmas shopping has undergone a wonderful change in the last few years there is plenty of opportunity for the appeal being made In behalf of a large number who have not as vet taken advantage of its ben- efits. Even though the advanteges of early trading when the counters are not beset by crowds as on bargain days, or during limited sales make no appeal to purchasers it is but right that they should have some resgard for those who are back of the coun- ters doing the selling. The opportu- nity for extending relief to those who are overworked through shopping delay is at hand and it should be rec- ognized. EDITORIAL NOTES. Henry Ford is again showing that he fully appreciates the value of ai- vertising. S el The man or the corner says: Wken one is feeling good it is easy to love human nature, Many people appreciate the fact that the season has arrived when Wooden ashbarrels can be left out over night. If it is possible to judge from the football contest the Army gzave the Navy a few valuable points on pre- varedness. Russia has made a good start on the proof of the statement made somo months ago that it was far from be- ing crushed. SR L The starting of a new revolution in Mexico indicates that Diaz infends to be ready for action before Villa is vut out of business. World-wide sympathy will be ex- tended to Andrew Carnegie, who has 6ot to go through the remainder of s days on $20,000,000. November has produced such a de- lightful period of autumnal “weather that it is with sincere regret that it is not just starting instead of ending. John Redmond declares that for ev- ery shot Germany fires the allies fize five. This shows greater economy and ‘act that the action taken has proved fetrimental should be sufficient to sloci its effort in the future. SAVE THE BIRDS, Long and persistent efforts have teen_made to give added protection © song birds, wild fowl and migra- ory birds and the result has been that jreater attention has been brought ta fich matters and that legislative acts \ad 2 good effect upon those who were nclined to destroy simply for the lleastire, which they derived from the port of shooting. Organized efforts liroush the Audubon societies have al- © resulted in much good, but it is rident that there is still a great op- jortunity for much more good work yhon it is declared by Secretary Pear- on of ths National Association of Au- bon Socteties that not only are,the egroes of the south and Italians em- . foved on large contracts about the buntry @sorensing the aumber of song irds by the tnousunds for food but uch birds are sold in'large numbets ot in the southbus in New York ‘What tbis will mean if it is allowed efficiency upon the part of Germany, If Henry Ford succeeds in his en- deavor to have all Europe rallying around the peace flag before Christ- mas, there will be no lack of a can- didate for the Nobel peace prize this year. ‘When the president declines to step in and make the European nations be- have before he is properly asked, he fully understands what usually hap- pens to those who meddle in other people’s affairs.

When wanted for use wipe oft all the flour carefully and they will be as pliable as when new. To freshen rusty bfack lace, soak it with vinegar and water—two table- spoonfuls of vinegar to a pint of water. Rinse and iron while damp between flannels. ‘When making jelly if you discover after pouring it into the cups that it is not well jellied, set it in the sun for several days. This will sometimes make it firm. It two glass dishes or tumblers stick together very tigatly, try filling the inner one with cold water, and holding the outer one in warm water. They will separate at once. An_ excellent polish for an oilclotl which has lost some of its original| brightness is made by dissolving bees- wax in turpentine. An ounce of wax to a pint of turpentine is about right. It should stand over night after mix- ing and be applied with a woolen cloth. Afterward it should be wiped off with a dry cloth. TO COLOR HOSE. As the hose of delicate colors, just! now so popular, are quite expensive | one clever woman colored several pairs i of white silk ones, which had become yellow in the laundry, by the follow- ing method: As she wished them to be a delicate pink she used a ten inch square of ordinary red crepe paper. She put this in 1 pan of luke warm water until the color all came out. Then she dipped the hose up and down in the water until they were the shade desired, then dried them. She then rinsed them in vlain water and dried again. Other delicate shades may be obtained by using different colors of crepe paper. 5 . FOR THE MATTRESS. All mattresses nsed either by whil- dren or adults should be well brushed and ‘beaten once a fortnight. Put in the sun by open windows when possi- ble. In this way ‘he white dust which | comes from the body is not allowed to lie on the creases cf the mattress cov- ers. A good rule is to have mattress- es brushed regularly one day in each week. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. A great destroyer of beauty lines is the nervous twisting of the lips and | facial grimaces when in conversation, To determine whether you are guilty of this habit sit or stand befare a mirror and converse earnestly with yourself. If you have cold feet at night, try soaking them in water as hot as you can bear it just before retiring. Jump right into bed, so that they will not get chilled and you will find the nerves soothed and the plcod pressure in the head relieved. From excessive persiration often the skin between the toes becomes soft and breaks into fissures. This is caused by the acerbity of the perspiration and is easily cured by washing the parts with a pure soap 2nd warm water and applying a piece of cotton wet with tincture of myrrh. In aggravated cases of sleeplessness a hot water bottle often gives relief when placed at the feet. Others per- fer it cross the back at the waistline. Sometimes a chilly feeling after retir- ing may be overcome by laying a wool- en shawl over the chighs and lower part of the stomach. There is nothing so necessary for good health and heauty as the daily bath. The best time for a busy woman to take a bath js just before going to bed. The reason fcr this is that, after a bath, the body is tired and needs a tonic rest. It is tardly possible to do this during the day. To straighten the shoulders, raise ‘the bust and develop the chest; there is nothing so good as deep breathing. It lifts the chest, allowing the air to fill the cavity so long depressed. It sends the blood bounding through the veins, eliminates the poisons from the sys- tem and creates a new Jjoy in life an ounce of white wax, half an ounce of spermaceti, one ounce of lanolin, two ounces of oil of sweet almonds. Melt together in a porcelain kettle and re- move from stove; add one ounce of orange flower water and three drops tincture of benzoin ond beat briskly till creamy. DININGROOM DON'TS. Get to meals on time; dom't keep other people waiting. Keep your elbows off the table; don’t lie down in your chair. Sit erect; don’t bend your head for each mouth- ful. Trust your fork to do its duty. Don’t bite off a mouthful of bread; break it into pieces of correct size. Don't speak if your mouth is full or, even half full of food. Don't make a noise with the lips while eating. Don’t drink liquids rapidly; to gulp down a glass of water gets on the nerves of other guests. Don’t put elbows cn the table; keep them close to the body, and = bend body from the weat of the chafr. ‘Gentlemen should not sit down to table till all ladies are seated. , Don't give all ycur attention to one guest; pay attention to those on each side of you. Don’t worry if a spot is made omn the dining cloth; remember it was an accident and forget it as soon as pos- sible. Don’t place the chair back; leave it ‘where it stands as you rise. Don’t overeat; and eat slowly. Don't make a meal of one article of weather and motoring. Steel headed purses of old shapes are in vogue. To the winter dances wear gilt slip- pers and stockings. The fraille type of silk is very fash- lonable this season. Beige and mustard color are seen in the same dress. Bell sleeves fall over sheer under- sleeves of tulle. Tassels are swinging corner of the cos‘ume. from The eoft silk or net fichu is excel lent for wear witn dark street dres: es.

Some- times the sleeves are mere wisps, 'tis true, but yet they cover to an extent milady’s pretty shoulders and make them even prettier for the veiling. A few evening dresses will be sleeveless, but they will be the exception.- The 1860 drop shoulder is also fercing it- sélf upon fashionable notice, and a few extreme evening gowns show its charming lines.

Fourth—Fry everything golden brown color. Fifth—Take up quickly and lightly, otherwise things w'll lose their crisp- ness. evenly a PAINT TOWEL RACKS. If towel racks in kitchen and bath- rooms are not nickeled: carefully paint them with at least two coats of white enamel paint, to avoid the possibility of iron rust spots as well as for gen- eral cleanliness. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Quite the newest way of making a casing to run ribbon through is by making a wide cat stitch or feather stitch on the outside.of the article to be used, and through this run the rib- bon. It holds as well as the old fash- ioned way. A novel way to protect a silic down puff from soiling cn top is to cat stitch a piece of muslin twelve inch- es wide to the top and embroider your monogram or initial in the center. When it is soiled it can easily be re- moved, laundered and put back again. Many of the new - autumn dresses are lavishly trimmed with satin or taffeta ribons, arranged In bands of graduated widths. These ribons are put on with a little heading of small porcelain beads; they are also work- Chiffon weils are used for rough time every basqued coats fitted to RECIPES.

Mr. Editor: I hope that Ob- server or anyone: élse who may be in- terested does not think that I try to defend the Central Powers in every- thing they say or do. 1 want to see the world rescued from Kaiserism and Imperialism as much as anyone, and if in asking me about the German re- Iations in and with the United States, Observer means the Fay affair, the es- cape of the interned Germans at Nor- folk, the recall of Dr. Dumba, the statements of Captain Von Papen, and the trial of the Hamburg-American of- ficials, I will frankly say that I am in favor ‘of nothing of the kind. If my letters have been pro-Geran, one can find all the anti-German arti- cles_he likes by glancing at-the -news or editorials of any newspaper in this country. Since the beginning of the war, the Central Powers have been the ‘under dogs as far as the periodi- cals in eur country are concerned. Censorship is not going to help the Entente Powers to win the struggle, and if we gave fair play to Germany and Austro-Hungary, we should not be inclined to be o one-sided in our opinion. The war has shown since the begin- ning that treaties and agreements are nothing to be relied upon—that they are merely “scraps of paper. The Hague convention ruled that the neu- trality of all countries not engaged in warfare should be respected and sald neutrality should be maintained by force of arms if necessary. Germany very quickly broke the neutrality of Belgium ih her march on Paris. Her defense was that Belgium was not a neutral country as she had secret un- derstandinge with the Entente Powers to allow them a passage through to Germany. Greece had her neutrali- ty vioiated when the entente landed troops in Greclan soil and marched them into Serbia. Their defense was that King Constantine was indebted to England for his-throne in the first place and $20,000 per year served to keep him there. Is this any reason why King Constantine should plunge 2 whole nation into war, because the Entente try to keep him in pocket money. Greece had a treaty with Serbia to help her. in case of war with Bul- ¥ G oyer in buttonhole stitch at the|garia. Up to the present time she has not kept it and as yet we do not Ot wornall Rty by Rman ATk 2€ know what defense she is offering for muelin inside a.man’s shirt to collar band and shoulder seams. This pro- tects the garment from wear of the stiff collars against the material. It is essential that the front plece of muslin should be left loose so that it will not interfere with laundering. A HANDY LAUNDRY BAG. Make the bag of cretonne with draw strings and any size you prefer. But you. want to have the back cut about four inches longer than the front. Bind in and make buttonholes in it, sew buttons on the front, now you can turn this right up and button it. All you have to do when in a hurry is to unbutton the bag gnd your clothes will fall out. I think you wil find it more convenient than to stop and open the top in the usual way. COMBINATION SPORT OUTFITS. Some of the bright-colored cordu- roy sport coats nave skirts to match, these skirts usually being of the com- servative sport .ines, amply wide for comfort in action, but mot over full, well supplied with pockets, a trifie high in waistline and very often Duttoned al the way down the front. The coats. are likely to be on Nor- folk lines, but occasionally one sees a straight coat, loosely belted, pock- eted and of any length from hip to knee. BOILED EGGS.

Italy, as a member of the Triple Alllance’ was bound by treaty to join the war with Austria and Germany. Instead we find she has declared war on Austria. She offered as an excuse that the Triple Alliance agreement was that she would aid Germany and Austria if they were at- tacked—in {his case they were attack- ers. There is always some manner in which to get around treatles and agreements and no matter how small a loop-hole is left, one of the agreéing nations is sure to find it and crawl out of-it.

They are dying at the rate of hundreds a day, for want of food, shelter and medicine. Tols- toy's daughter Vera, who has been working among them with the Rus- sian Red Cross, writes: “Never in my life bave I seen such suffering.” The Armenians are of the Aryan race, and of pure Caucasian blgod. They have behind them a long Listory of heroism and martyrdom. They bave an ancient civilization and a beautiful literature. Their business talent and energy are proverbial. “Of all those who dwell in Western Asia they stand first” says James Bryce. Lamartine calls them “the Swiss of the East” Dulaurler compares them to the Dutch. Dr. James L. Barton says, “They are the Anglo Saxons of Turkey.” He adds: I know the Armenians to be, by in- heritance, religious, industrious and faithful. They are not inferior in mental ability to any race on earth.

Y Editor: Now then lets all the howlings of the makers of bad weather and get ready for one of the most delight- tul month cf December ever known. All “seers” who predict terrible weath- er for December, 1915, will awake January 1. 1916, with the knowledge— not belief—that they know nothing about the weather. There may be a fair cold day, but uniess all my calculations are very, very wrosz, the bad daye will be few. By bad I mean, cold and severe storms. There will be considerable rain in De- cember, but I don't think there will be many snows, if there is any they will either turn to rair or soon melt away. December, 1915, is to be “a poor man's month.” In my November predictions, every storm came just on the exact dates mentioned, and 1 shall be greatly dis- appeinted if December is not as I have predicted. The storm periods are 1st to 3rd, 7th to 12th to 14th, 19th to 22pd, 23rd to 26th, and a heavy fall of rain or perhaps snow to end up the month.
