AN EXTRAVAGANT CONGRESS With the close of the first session of the sixty-fonrth consress, the dem- ccrats have earned the cism of extravaganco which has been applied to it During the scssion there h Dbeen authorized the expend national funds Tillion dollars. c to the extent of out must come the larze for preparedne icl Jooked upon ju as pense, but with an iwhich opened with the omy and the sl der its policy been a surprising saving of money serious attempt |use on projec ed just as well as not.

Tt can be readfly understood why imuch of the timeot Luls Cabrera of the | /Mexican commission is taken up with flnancial matters which are entirely outside the subjects to be considered by the American and Mexican del |gates. Mexico is, and has been for a \long time, in nced of money. The op- ieration of a government, to say noth- of the added expense imposcd by revolution, requires a treasury will show funds on the right do of the ledger. This Mexico has ot got. It has suffered severely by the changes in administration and by ed as an important victory for the central powers in spite of the fact ‘that' Rumanta has more than offset it Dby its advance into Transylvania. Russia is destined to play an im- portant part in’checking the attacks upon Rumania from the south and while it may be a bit slow getting in- to action no extensive movement of the Bulgarian forces across the Ru- mantan border can be contemplatel without giving serlous consideration to the cpposition which will be re- cefved from that directlon. That they are on the way, and com- ing in force is disclosed by the cap- ture which they have made of Dobric and Dobasci in the Dobrudja, %hs province which lies next to the Black sea to the northeast of Bulgaria. This is the opening stroke in the Russian drive and it makes it evident that the promised assistance of the czar's troops was by no means an empty one. They may have been a bit slower than the Bulgarians in striking the enemy in that quarter but they can be de- pended upon to furnish the much needed and endless backing which Ru- mania has been depending upon. DANGEROUS LEGISLATION. Just as a sample of the kind of les- islation which the administration has been advocating and securing from congress, Charles E. Hughes called at- tention in his Maino addresses to the shipping bill, with its $50,000,000 ep- propriation, which has just been signed. And Maino with its large amount of shipbuilding and coasting trade is just the state which under- stands what it means to permit an invasion of the coastwise traffic by foreign built vessels. According to the provisions of the new law, all vessels which are re- quired by the shipping board, whether American-built or foreign-built, may engage in the coastal transportation, and when vessels acquired by the board, eign-t board cther American-buflt or for- are transferred by the private persons, they will to continue eligible for use in the coast- wise trade, Maine i n course, not the only is bound to feel the fects of such legisiation, for there is hardly o state along the seaboard whicl t affected in some way by side of the protection retofore De 1 to 2 shipyard and the trade ports, but Maine eciate the decia when he told them bill v | horn of some of t hringi Mott Os- an entirely some time since the bott short time to t 1 2d to run ponsible he trumped up charges and bri: to th and the mor interest revelati: v onnection mak hich have ng ex-convic responstble for the chars: pted in their others ¢ warden of of removal blackening of his name.

Now that he has gotten congress oft his hands, the president will have some time te devote to the appeals of the striking rallway men and groc- ery clerks in the metropolis. It is a well known fact that the most of us never realize the value of good health until we get sick, and similarly a city never appreciates transportatien facilities until there is future course of the de facto Which amounts to more empty promises and the obsta- the /way, of a loan will quickly.

It would be curious to suggest that economy prompts the designer to meet the increased de- mand in view of the fact that at no time have financial conditions been at S0 top notch a mark.

A rather nice idea for a serving tray, if one is tired of embroldery, is t oremove the wooden bottom and paint on it in the center, the initials of the owner. Use Old Erglish or Roman letters and place them sida by slde, transfer them with carbon paper, and then use oil paint and fill in the letters. Usually a narrow out- line of black or some dark color is used, as it makes the letters much more artistic. When the paint is dry use a wide brush and go over the work with a coat of light shellac. Light shellac | will make red, orange and yellow and colors {n_which they predominate ap- pear much brighter, and it is the same with black. When used over blue the paint assumes a green tingo; so re- member when using shellac' over a color it has the same effect as a wash of yellow paint. THE PLAITED SKIRT. Plaited_skirts often give trouble with the back closing. To keep it from parting, do not open it in the cen- ter back seam if you have an in- verted or 'box plait, but have the skirt ready for the band, all seams stitched and pin the plaits in care- fully. Then siash down on the right inside creaso of the center plalt. This makes e closing that will not part, and needs about half the number of hooks and eyes. Allow the band long enough to reach across to the slashed side. Plaits that swing -out of place can'be stitched to position at the extreme efge on the under stde. This is a good method for all cotton ond other washable skirts. ~'When ironing, turn first to the under- stitched edge and press each plait lon the wrong side all around the ;turn~ on the ~outside - and are of- and ap- 3 S S 11, 1916 CONCERNING WOMEN. ‘The clubwoman of one small town in | California_which was in need of fire | aparatus bought and managed a fire engine until the town authorities were shamed into providing the necessary protection.

Save your red apple parings. You can get a glass of jelly of the parings from two pies. WISE PRECAUTION, When sending clothing to the laun- dry, see that all buttons are unbut. toned before the articles leave you In this way you will have fewer lost or broken buttons. RECIPES. Peanut Sandwiches—Chop or grind in a food chopper the desired amount of freshly roasted peanuts, season with salt to taste and mix to a smooth paste with thick sweet cream.

President Wilson has made _three classic utterances about the world war, and they will probably be copled into the school historles. He first issued a proclamation telling us that we mus® be “neutral even in thought” about it. As soon as we had recovered from the disgust caused by this he told us he was “too proud to fight” At the din- ner of the League to Hnforce Peace, speaking of the war, he told us that “with its causes and objects we are not concerned.” It is true that we are The War A Year Ago Today September 11, 1915, ‘Great German concentration on Dvinsk-Vilna line.
