Garrison, and that of the former secretary of state upon retire- ment from office. Mr. Garrison makes it positive that there is no political significance to be attached to his withdrawal from the office. He is em- phatic in Lis statements that he is not to be considered as a candidate 'for political honors either from the na- tion or from his own state. He has no desire to embarrass the adminis- tration and he sets at rest any thoughts to the contrary when he de- clares that he would do it under no conceivable circumstances now or at any future time. How he feels to- wards being boosted for the govern- orship of kis own state of New Jer- sey is shown by his equally firm statement to the effect that he would not take the office if a certificate of election was tendered to him on a silver plate. Whether Mr. Garrison had become thoroughly diszusted, or not, with the action of Mr. Bryan since he left the cabinet is not disclosed, but he makes it evident that he intends to steer a course which will be diametrically op- posite to the Nebraskan’s and one whick has all the earmarks of being in keeping with the character of the man. Mr. Garrison makes it apparent that he kas no desire to be mixed up in any political entanglements. They go against Lis grain and no better evi- dence of the sincerity of his purpose in the stand which he took as a mem- ber of the cabinet and in his resigna- tion could have been furnished than is displayed by his action since leav- ing the office. TREATY WITH NICARAGUA. Among the matters before the for- eign relations committee in congress it is but natural that much attention should be directed to the treaty which is proposed between this country and Nicaragua. It is a move in behalf of preparedness which cannot be over- looked for while it is to be expected that the Panama canal, as soon as it has been cleared of the obstructions which are now causing so much trou- Dle, will be able to take care of all the business which will use the waterway for many vears to come, the opportu- nity to obtain the right of way for an- other canal which might even be set up in opposition to the existing one will never be better and there is the probability that the cost would be greatly increased by delay, especially if the time came when others were seeking it. In addition to the rights for the ca- nal there is also the land for a naval base on the Gulf of Fonseca which is not to be overlooked, and which is in- cluded in the proposition. The im- portance of this, with no other naval base nearer the canal on the Pacific side than San Diego, can readily be recognized. The treaty has been stripped of the objectionable features which include the making of Nicaragua a protector- Bte of this country. It has been whittled down to a business proposi- tion which ought to be judged by it- self and upon its merits alone, and the very fact that ownership of such rights by this country would prevent others from taking advantage of them is worthy of serious consideration. It will put an end to any rivalry for the Panama canal even though it never becomes necessary for this country to think of constructing another connec- tion between the Atlantic and the Pa- cifie. 3 ITALY'S POSITION. If the visit of the French premier to the capital of Italy was for the purpose of getting that country closer in touch with the allies it must be realized that it should have been taken long ago. It went into the war on the side of the allies for the pur- pose of carrying out its own national policy. It could not sanction the course of the Teutonic powers and it made its position plain in that re- gard but there has been a lack of co- operation on its part, the seriousness of which has been brought to its attention by the manner in which Austria has stalked across Montenegro wnd into Albania. to the detriment of Italian interests along the Adriatic. Italy has been fight its own fight with the Austrians for the purpose of retting back certain provinces which were once under, the Itallan flag. That [t now realizes the mistake that was made is indicated by the recent decla- ration of its premier to the effect |hat it might be necessary to with- L% 6 ooy 0 5 draw its forces for a time but if such was done it would only be for the purpose of going ahead agaln Wwith greater determinatfon. What its changed policy may mean is to be gathered from the action which has been taken in shutting off trade with Germany as well as with Austria, for strange as it may seem Ttaly has never declared war against Germany, and the declaration that a large force would be sent into Albania to cooperate with the allied forces at Saloniki. Italy thus has apparently been brought to the realization that it must join forces with the other al- lies in the war if it is going to attain the success which all are aiming at. NO SEPARATE BELGIUM PEACE. Whether any terms for a separate peace were offered to Belgium or not by Germany, it could hardly be ex- pected that King Albert would enter into any such agreement in view of the tremendous loss and suffering which have been inflicted upon that country by the nation which had promised {o respect its neutrality. Bel- gium would of necessity be bound to look upon any such arrangement with suspicion, in view of its past experi- ence, even If it was inclined to enter into a peace pact with Germany. According to the offer as announced Belgium was to receive back all its territory and there was to be pald an indemnity to that country, but Ger- many was to retain as German ports Antwerp and Zeebrugge. That meant that inasmuch as Belgium had been forced to defend itself, even though «ts protection had been guaranteed, It must now pay for the devastation which has been caused by the invad- ers and the accompanying suffering which has been inflicted upon its peo- ple by the giving up of its two im- portant ports to be under Germany control for any and all purposes that might be desired. That would mean that Germany had begun to apply the grip to that small country in a man- ner which would promise a gradual spread of German dictation and power. As much as Belgium might like peace it could never subscribe to it on those terms and it has since been made plain that Belgium does not in- tend to abandon its present position. It s to remain with the allies until the end, a course which it must be realized it is justified in in view of the treatment it has received at the hands of a government upon which it pre- viously had every reason to look as a friend. ARMOR PLATE COMPETITION. Frightening Uncle Sam by threats is something which has never resulted n any signal success-and it is indeed strange that the armor plate manu- facturers of this country should get the idea that they could force it to remain out of that line of business by promising a radical jump in price, such as the threatened $200 a ton in- crease. That was like waving a red rag in the face of a bull and clearly a most unwise move from their stand- point. Whatever might be said for or against the government ownership and operation of such plants when it comes {o making threats there is nothing surprising in the action of the senate committee on naval af- fairs in quickly forwarding a favor- able report upon appropriating $11,- 009,000 for the construction or pur- chass of armor plate factories. As much as those concerns engaged in making armor plate might desire to keep the government out of the business, much better business sagac- ity would have been displayed had they devoted their time to showing how the launching of such a govern- ment enterprise would have stimu- lated competition and that the gov- ernment would be put to the expen- diture of an untold amount of money with no assurance that it could pro- duce the same grade of product for a price which it now pays. Could it have been shown that the government would be raying $200 a ton more for s armor plate made In its own fac- tories than it could obtain it for from private concerns it is safe to say that there would have been much se- rious consideraticn given to the mat- ter before a favorable report was made upon the proposition. The plate makers appear to have boosted a gov- ernment plant Instead of blocking it. EDITORIAL NOTES. Valentine day in a leap year fur- nishes an unusual opportunity. It takes February as a rule to put the finishing touches on the winter landscapes. The time is fast approaching when the summer resort literature will be flooding the mails. There appears to be sufficlent rea- son for the groundhog to send forth signals of distress. Winter gives evidence that it isn't as spineless as the groundhog would have people believe. It requires a cold storm once in a while to keep people from forgetting that they have thermometers. A New York woman who has had 98 surgical operations in nine years is preparing for another in the hopes of success. It begins to look as if Washington needed a cabinet maker who could do a good dovetailing job and make his product hcld together. The man on the corner says: The higher the cost of living the more one realizes that he occuples a prominent place among those present. Unless Secretary Garrison is care- ful his “out of politics” declaration will win for him the same public con- fidence that it has for Justice Hughes. 1f the British will not disarm their merchantmen they may get a little help in the way of disguising the guns from the method that was used on he German raider Moewe. Bulgarifa plans to drop out of the wer as soon as the Saloniki attack is over which doubtless makes the allies realize that it will have time to vote a number of war loans yet. As yet the method of learning whether merchantmen are armed be- fore sinking them has not been an- nounced. It is to be hoped it will not be the same as was used In the case of the Lusitania. A Vienna dispatch says that British merchantmen use their guns to attack ships, Can it be this action rather than the iving up to the promised re- forms which has brought about the WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS FOR S THE HOUSEWIFE ‘When filling the gem pans with bat- ter, leave one of the cups empty and fill' it with water. The gems Wwill brown nicely without burning. In heating the oven, the draughts should be closed when the coal is well started. In a word, to save fuel, plan ahead and then watch draughts. For a creaking door, rub the edges with soap, and then, with the addition of a few drops of oil on the hinges, the nuisance will be remedied. It should always be remembered that puddings, both sweet and savory, and plenty of nice vegetables are useful in saving the more expensive meat. To prevent crochet ties from stretch- ing, stitch a piece of narrow ribbon along the center, on wrong side, the entire length of the tie. ‘When supper plates and dishes must be left till next morning to be washed, place them in a pail of cold water and they will partly wash themselves. When cutting out the lining of a blouse yoke be sure to cut it the same way of the material as the outside, otherwise it will be unsatisfactory and will not fit. When making a cream sauce put the milk on to heat and rub the butter and flour together until smooth, stir this into the boiling milk gradually and the sauce will be smooth. Newspapers cut as finely as possi- ble make a good filling for cushions. Stockings, if ravelled, can be used to make mats and rugs; they can also be used for the inside of iron-holders. Instead of mixing cocoa with boil- ing water to dissolve it, try mixing it with an equal amount of granulated sugar and then pouring it into the boiling water in the pot, stirring all the while. To wash satin make a good lather with soap, wash the satin, rinse in cold water to which a little gin has been added, and iron on the wrong side, when the material should look equal to new. WORTH KNOWING. To remove rust from steel rub the rusted part well with sweet oil and allow it to stand for forty-eight hours. Then rub with a plece of soft leather and sprinkle with finely powdered un- slaked lime until the rust disappears. LATEST FERN HOLDER. The latest fern dish resembles the cocoanut, split in half. One may place a fern in the hollow, and the green sprays trailing over the dark coat of the ball give a very artistic effect. Or the whole ball ‘may be used and ferns or any kind of trail- ing vine around it. With its bright green foliage and dark brown color- ing this ball introduces the “touch of living green” that is so desirable in- doors in the winter time. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Tight collars break down the mus- cles supporting the flesh of the neck Diccolorations are due to the same cause, for the constant friction of a collar thickens the skin and causes it to turn, first yellow and then dark brown. A good method of removing warts s to wet them with hot water and then rub them for two or three min- utes with table salt. At the eAd of this time cover the wart with salt and let it remain undisturbed for another five minutes, when wart should be freed from coat of salt. Repeat this treatment several times a day for a week, when, in most cases the wart will be no more. There will be no scar, so feel no fear of this treatment. Boiling water taken internally be- fore breakfast is like a stomach wash, and a cup or two of it will do won- ders to keep us on the road to health. Orange juice Is of an acid nature and helps to counteract the effect of too many sweets. Apples are greatly lax- at and one taken before going to bed every night will help along the good work imensel A very important thing to remember is the necess of the daily bath. Many people are apt to negiect this because they are tired or languid, or just a bit careless. Under no condi- tion should this be the case, for if one stopped to consider how much good the bath does toward reviving the circulation they would not hest- itate to indulge in it, even though they feel unequal to i If you examine your teeth carefully you will likely find that a soft, cheesy Qeposit collects close up to the gums. If this is not removed it gradually be- comes harder and becomes what is called tartar. You should scrub your teeth thoroughly after each meal, be- fore breakfast and before retiring and use a good dentifrice. Two or three times a week scrub them well up close to the gums with dioxogen and it will remove all the cheesy substance, Then your teeth will not require to be scraped so often. COLD COMPRSSES. Cold compresses today are generally advised and have taken the place of various hot applications previously thought to be the correct mode of treatment. This method of reducing irritation should be employed in the beginning whenever possible so the re- lief will be all the more rapid. One of the simplest compresses is made from a small towel or cloth laid in several folds, dipped in cold water, wrung out and applied to the throat of the patient, completely encircling it. Over this at once is placed a dry towel covering the wet one so as to exclude the air, otherwise a chill is likely to follow. The wet cloth is moist only, with no tendency to drip. So soon as the bandage becomes warm, another ome Is immediately placed and the air not allowed to reach the throat any more than is necessary. Mustard plasters are sometimes advised for a sore throat. TO REMOVE LABELS. If you want to remove labels which are pasted on pillow slips or any oth- er article which you want to use be- fore washing place a wet cloth on the wrong side and place a_ hot iron on it for a few seconds, or hold over the steam coming from the spout of the tea kettle. It will come off readily. DICTATES OF FASHION. Apron _effects are used on some eve- ning and afternoon frocks. In a plaited skirt a plain front and back panel is often combined with a plain, carefully fitted yoke. High collars are ;:ot quite so much in evidence as hitherto on coats. ,.gh»'«‘."“m- the submarine warfare? , ) Black . broadcloth - with . soutache ‘braid embroidery 1is considered de- cidedly smart. Nothing is prettier than the gold dotted evening scarf for a debutante. Soft chiffon velvets are combined with sheer silk crepe or chiffon in the making of afternoon dresses. Butterflies are still influencing fash- ion. Some of the frocks with a fichu drapery on the bodice show a sort of butterfly bow at the front. The uneven hem still prevails. Of- ten it is shorter in front than #n back and it is still scalloped.. Waists made in true tailored style are of tub silk. Evening dresses are short, with a square straight train falling from the waistline. A grea: deal of gold lace is used in evening dresses. Some frocks are made entirely of gold cloth. ‘Summer outer wraps will be most- 1y of pongee. Many of them have lin- ings of brilliantly colored silk. ‘White chiffon forms one frock with a puff band of black velvet at the bot- tom of the skirt; the white bodice portion is trimmed with stitching of heavy black silk in many rows. Coats of the new spring suits are of varied lengths, some reaching only to the hips. While it is said that darts and seams will appear in the Spring, other coats will be quite as boxy as the former are close fitting. THE SHOULDER LINE. There is a marked tendency in some of the advance frock models to set the sleeves in at a low shoulder line. Whether this is a forerunner of the kimono sleeve is doubtful but one thing is certain, that sleeves and their Settings are important and that you are as apt to see the long tight sleeves punctuated with puffs and ruffles as the full flaring sleeve banded with vel- vet or fur. HANDY ICE BOX. For the woman who would econo- mize on her ice bills during the winter there is a handy little box which al- most any one can make. A wooden box of the ordinary variety is fitted with as many shelves it can con- veniently hold and fastened outside the window in such a manner that when the window is opened one may reach her hand into it quite easily from the inside f the house. When the window is closed, if the box is properly arranged, it acts as a secure cover, preventing any one from the outside removing some of the contents of the box. There may be kept in con- tact with the cold outer air your milk and butter and meat and all those things which otherwise would require ice to preserve. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. When hunting the work-bag for a gift, mind the apron that you can when things most suitable always keep in work-bag—the kind spread out on your lap working with linty or fuzzy that wear the front of your gown or stick to it unpleasantly.” By an ngement of the draw-string, it can be pulled together to look just like a bag. Most attractive shirtw ists are being shown in bright blues, pinks and greens and in serviceable shades of tan. These are perfectly plain, but are enriched by having covered but- tons of the material embroidered in combinations of colors. If you are not in the mood for making the entire blouses now, you can start on the buttons. It will be a big satisfaction to have them all prepared when the final finishing day comes. The tiny twins pincuskion is made by encircling the waists of little twin dolls with circular, padded pincushions of bright colors. If the little dolls are of biack china, and their skirts of bright red, when the two are suspend- ed together they are very suggestive of a popular advertisement of busy work- ers. Of course the little cushions must be stuck full of black-headed pins. Little white china dols may be gir- dled with pale blue or pink cushions and filled with white-headed pins. CLEANING PICTURES. Benzine, naptha and alcohol are best for cleaning the glass of pictures and do not require the care that wa- ter does when used for this purpoee. If the water leaks through some un- seen crack or crevice and finds its way to the picture it will leave a stain or mark, while the three former will dry at once and leave no stain or mark whatever, and at the same tlme they will be found to give the glass a bril- liant polish without rubbing. TABLE LINEN. Every housewife should take an in- terest in her table linen since its ap- pearance has a psychological effect on those who come in contact with it. In the first place, it should be clean and of as good quality as posslble. The latter requisite will prove economical in the end, for good linen wears twice as long as a cheap grade of the ma- terial and it always looks better. ‘While clean linen is Insisted upon. no housewife should think it a crime if anything is spilled on the tablecloth. There is always a way to remove the spot or stain. It is quite unnecessary to make the person having the acc dent feel nervous and uncomfortable. In some cases it is possible to re- move the stain without removine the tablecloth. Try putting a bowl under the stained part and pouring boiling water through the cloth until ‘the stain disappears. In case of fruit stains cover the mark first with salt. Then remove the bowl and press the wet part between two rather heavy folded clean towels. When nearly dry, pre: lightly with a fairly warm iron. All holes and thin_places should be carefully darned before linen is washed. In marking table linen embroidery is preferred to ink markings. Script and old English letters are always good for this purpose, particularly when the tablecloth is marked across one. corner. To determine the correct spot fold the tablecloth diagonally You Can Stop Drinking You had better stop at once or you'li lose your job, Every line of business is closing its doors to “Drinking” me: It may be your turn next.

Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the substitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards’ deter- mination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calo- mel. They take hold of the troub) and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to iet Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver.

Miss Alice McCoy, aged 13, has been awarded the grand championship of Louisianna in pig raising. Among the constitutional reforms now being considered by the Nether- lands government is one providing for universal woman suffrage in that coun- try. Miss Julia C. Lathrop, head of the children’s bureau, is the highest paid woman on the pay rool of the United States government. The Rev. Gertrude von Petzold, who was expelled from England, has been elected assistant pastor of the Amer- ican church in Berlin. Women tramway conductors on the Leeds (England) cars receive 11 cents an hour, which is the same rate of pay as received by the men. Mrs. John Graber, an ardent suffra- gist, has been elected constable of Smith, O., an office for which she was not a candidate. She did not even know that she was being voted for. In Japan women not only work in the home, but go out for service. Lit- tle girls are employed in large num- bers as nurses for babies. Then they are the mald servants, either in pri- vate Louses or in tea houses and hotels. MEND BEFORE WASHING. Mend clothes, especially startched ones, before sending them to the laun- dry, so that when they are returned cléan and nicely folded there will be no need to disarrange and crumple them for mending purposes. SHADE FOR LIGHT. For the electric light in the or bedroom there is a useful in the way of a shade. This is an exquisite little lady dressed in rose silks and gold lace, after the style of the ladies of the court of Louis Quinze. The skirt forms the shade and the light shining through the satin and lace takes on a lovely soft glow. ‘boudolr novelty RECIPES.
