In spite of the fact that the *Teu- tonic forces have captured thelr capl- ~ tal, Bucharest, and have pushed on a _ hundred miles beyond and taken their important grain port, Braila, the Ru. ‘manians are not discouraged.. They have been defeated and repeatedly been - forced back but they are not crushed. ‘They have suffered from the fact that ‘they were not properly prepared to en- ‘§age In the struggle when they did, ‘mnd because they have not received ‘the assistance which they had reason * This is revealed by the action which ‘has been taken by the chamber of ‘deputies in reply to the peace propo- | made by the central powers.

There were sev- g Steel has but recently claimed to be bigger than ‘he famous Krupp works at Es- 8oods in 16 months. It was supposed thaf the munitions factories of @urope were rushed to the lmit supplying their own wants and that this was particularly true in Eng- Jand but such is not indicated by the bid for American work. This would indi- cate, and it has also been claimed since the bid was made, that the ves- sels of England are greatly overstock- ed, that the stock on hand is so large that the taking on of the American contract would not interfere with their war demands and dt would serve to keep the employes busy. Yet there is also the claim made that the British bid would be subject to peace being declared, but unless this is true it in- dicates that the shell makers of this country have much to learn from those abroad for Mr. Sechwab declares that only a fair price was asked in the bid which his company made. ENCOURAGING THRIFT. The American Society for Thrift is doing its utmost to impress upon the minds of the young people of this country the importance of saving and it will be generally recognized that there is an excellent motive in such an effort to encourage them to lay by something for a rainy day. There are a great many who Teceive most val- uabie training along such lines in their own homes and there are others who are forced into the recognition of it from the fact that they are required at an early age to get out and hustle for the maintenance of the family but there is a large number who fail to eppreciate the value of thrift. Last year this organization conduct- ed a contest offering cash prizes to those writing the best essay upon the subject of thrift, with the result that there were 20,000 who participated from eleven states and the prizes were distributed between eleven contestants in elght of the states. A similar ef- fort is to be made this ycar when $1000 in prizes will be awarded. That there will be a larger number who will devote more attention than otherwise to the question of thrift be- cause of this contest is highly proba- ble. It may not be that all of them belong to the class that it is desired to reach but it is certain that too much thought canmot be given to the mat- ter by any of the coming generations and the stimulation of an increased interest cannot fail to have its =ood effects. The more who can be made to read and think about such a thing, and apply to themselves what they may find about others cannot be other than productive of good. MUST GO TO THE BOTTOM OF IT. Thus far there hasn't been Tevealed anything very startling in the inves- tigation which is being made regard- ing the “leak’™ which it is claimed took place concerning the president’s peace | note, and which resulted in large op- erations on the stock market. There has been much told in regard to talk which has been going around, but thus far the witnesses have not been able to put their finger on the trouble. Even the congressman who offerea the resolution for an investi- gation declared that his evidence was all hearsay, but that does not mean that he should not have taken the course which he did in insisting upon the ferreting out of the trouble. There bad been so much said about there being advance information siven about the note that it was time to find out whether there was actually anything of the kind or not. If there was it should be brought to light. Even those in highest authority at Wash- ington should be anxious to know if such a state of affairs exists that the guilty one or ones may be punished and a checic placed upon such freedom in the future. There are a number who have been mentioned in connecticn with the af- fair who want to be heard and that is but natural. They can probably clear themselves whether they offer any other assistance or not, but the inves- tigation ought not to stop until it has gotten at the bottom of the affair. It should be determined once and for all whether there was anything morce than fimazination to support the claim which was made by Thomas Lawson about that leak. SUGGESTIONS FOR 3 THE HOUSEWIFE When ironing table linen, iron with the selvige and not across the grain. To clean bambo furniture use a ‘brush dipped in warm water and salt. The salt prevents the bamboo from turning color. Salt rubbed on tea ¢ups will remove tea stains, and discoloration on crock- ery or china will respond to the same treatment. To clean coat coliars apply benzine and after an hour or more, when the grease has become softened, rub it or remove with soapsuds. A little clear coffee can be added to starch for tan or cream materials, and this is better than pure white starch in wany colored things. For black sarments black starch is sold that is quite satisfactory. White starch is almost sure to give unsatis- factory results on black material. Iron saucepans should be cleaned 2 soon as possible after use, and if anything greasy has been boiled in them put in some soda and boil up. Stockings should be washed care- #clly and the thin places darned before they go into a hole. It is much easier to darn a thin place than it is a hole. These places should be darned closely but not tight and the small holes over a polished stocking darner- Stale bread can be used for croutons. Cut the bread into thin slices spread it lightly with butter on one side then cut into dice. Place them on a thin pie dish and put them in a moderate oven until a golden brown. They are delicious served with soup. The housekeeper should use zinc on all places in the kitchen where she works. For instance a working table covered with zinc or a shelf before a pleasant kitchen window where she can prepare vegetables and fish if cov- ered with zinc can be Kept clean with case. SMART GLOVES. Velvety mochas are fashionable. New washable lace gloves of straw color have black cuffs and black stitch- ing. Erown and tan shades are the vo- gue—in glace, suede, kidskin and mo- cha. Gloves with Vandyke pointed bands at the top are another of the season's smart novelties. Heavy embroidery in contrasting cclor, or solid black distinguish many new gloves. WHEN OATMEAL STICKS. To clean saucepans thoroughly after cooking oatmeal fill them with boil- ing water, empty and then fill with cold water and the oatmeal will almost fall away from the sides of the sauce- pans. SHAKING RUGS. When shaking heavy the sides. If possible, spread them wrong side up on the grass and beat to dislodge the dirt, then brush off and Leng up to air. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. russ hold by Grapes are advised for the nervous, thin. anaemic people whose digestion needs attention. One grape a minute shoud be eaten for one hour at a time and repeat the dose several times a day until a cure is affected. Sleep at least eight hours out of every twenty- four. The girl with a blotchy skin would he greatly benefited taking the juice of a lemon squeczed into a glass of hot water. Fr ids are aimost magical in their effects upon the com- plexion, if taken properly. When the skin begins to look sallow and thick with red spots here and there, taki one teaspoonful of phosphate of soda in a glassful of very hot water every morning before breakfast. Continue until skin clears again. Sleep with the bedroom windows open. The old superstition that night air is unhealthy even for an invalid is entirely false. On the contrary, night air, especially in large cities is purer and better than day air, because 1t _contains less dust and fewer m crobes. To get the best ventilation have the window open at both top and bottom. The averase healthy person has little to fear from drafts, but the aged, enfeebled, infants and persons especially susceptible, must be pro- EDITORIAL NOTES.

An excellent remedy for coughs and colds is made of Irish moss, lemon juice and sugar. Put two heaping tablespoonfuls of moss in stew pan with one quart of hot water. Let it simmer 15 minutes. Strain and put moss into pan again with _another quart of hot water and let that sim- mer 15 minutes. By that time the goodness is out of the moss. Strain and to the whole of the liquid put the juice of two zood sized lemons and Sweeten to taste. Drink syrup freely. CARE OF FURNITURE. Varnished furniture should never be exposed to extreme heat. If furniture stands too near a stove, or where the suniight falls directly on it, the var- nish will become soft and. blister. Sudden changes of temperature will cause the finish to crack and looks as if it were full of small scratches. Ir gas or steam is used, a bowl of fresh water should always be kept in each room, otherwise the air will be- ceme too dry and cause the glue in your furniture and under the veneered Lieces tocrack. Then the joints will become loose. Standing near an open window or door on damp or rainy days will deaden the finish on furniture. The wood will also absorb dampness ard swell,-causing the glued joints to loosen. Give vour rooms plenty of light and fresh air, but be careful of your furniture, being careful not to expose it to sun, heat and dampness. Fresh air has a tendency to brighten furniture if not too much exposed. Never use cheap polishes. kerosene oll or vinegar. Get a good grade of polish (the best is none too good). Tirst wipe the surface with a soff c.oth, wrung out of clear, warm (not hot) ' water. This will remove _the grime and dust. Then give it a liber- al cost of furniture polish, using at The government is no different than a lot of people, It has purchased the Danish West Indies for $25,000,009 and now it is looking around to see where it can get the money to pay for them. With the announcement that thous- ands of big guns have been turned out by the central powers' factories, it is quite evident that they are as strong as evér on the question of prepared- mess, even though urging peace. Germany will not accept the refusal of its efforts of peace, but will make another try. There must be some rea- son why it doesn't want to indulge in the increased ruthlessness which it ieast two cloths to remove all excess polish, which will collect dust. Ap- ply to corners and carvings with a soft brush. Cheesecloth is by far the best cloth to use. ‘When reed furniture becomes soiled it can be made to-look like new if thoroughly _brushed with a dry, etiff scrub brush and then given a coat of golden aek varnish. Fibre furniture is vsually chamically treated to make it waterproof, and is not affected by at- mospheric’ conditions, consequently can be washed with white soap and water without affecting the finish. DICTATES OF FASHION. For the little girl is a good-looking winter coat of steel blue pontine the ,'I#dl}flatnltb‘lh\ulndthfl- cioth. The blue soiree silk bodice is trimed with bands of silver ribbon and flesh pink tulle in a single airy layer, giving the debutante touch ai the shoulder, for the youns girl does not wear an entirely sleeveless bodice. Fale pink roses shading to orchid tone are caught against girdle and skirt bem. Palm Beach frocks show a new sleeve idea; the now necessary fullness is supplied by a plenty of material, but the armhole is so enlarged that the width of material disposes itself with- out the gathers that woman will not tolerate at the shoulder line. An- other new style feature is the banish- nient of buttons on topcoats and mo- tor coats. Many of the new model show not a button from chine to knee, the coat front closing invisibly under 2 flap, TO CLEAN WHITE FUR. Take a sufficiency of dry starch, very finely powdered, and sift it through a fine sieve into a broad, clean tin pan. Set the pan near evough the fire for the powdered starch to get warm, stirring it fre- quently. Then roll and tumble about the white fur among the powdered starch till it is well saturated. Shut it up closely in a bandbox and let it remain unopened for a fortnight. It will_then look clean. ‘When you put away white fur, pro- ceed as’ above, using a very large cuantity of the pulverized starch and put into the box some lumps of cam- rhor tied up in thin white papers. Keep the box closely shut and do not open it to look at the fur till you want it again. It will then be found 2 good clean white. If you have a white velvet or silk Pat that looks well enough to wear a second season. lay beside it In the bandbox a cake of white wax, such a$ you get at a druggist, cover the band- box closely and do not on any ae- count open it till you are to wear the hat again. You veill then find the cake of wax much discolored, but the hat a: white as_ever. PETTICOAT TRIMMING. Heavy grossgrain ribbon is used ex- tensively for trimming sheer petticoats of crepe and satin. In one instance three rows of ribbon finish the edge of the petticoat and another row is ruf- fled at the hips in yoke outline. EMERGENCY REMEDIES. Bathing behind the ears with right hot water often relievs a headache. When a cut will not stop bleeding apply ground rice or flour. Either one is efficacious. A g00d long stretch immediately up- on waking in the morning is excellent exercise with which to begin the day. At the first intimation of a sore throat try a gargle of one teaspoonful of salt and one of carbonate of soda to balf a glass of water. Fold the hammered finger in water as hot as can be borne for a few min- utes. This treatment will draw out the inflammation almost at once. A small onion eaten before retiring will often induce sleep. The taste may be removed after eating by chewing a Lit of parsley or a few drops of eau de cologne on a lump of sugar. SALT BOX INVENTIONS. There is a little 10 cent wooden salt box about six inches square, with a high back in which a hole is pierced to hang it up by. With the front cut out and the lid taken off, it makes a Kanging book shelf for about four small books. A row of them, stand- ing side by side with lids or without, at the back of a little table trans- forms the table into a desk. One nailed firmly at each end of a board boxes with backs toward each other, will make an _excellent book holder to tand on a table. Nail up on the wall 2 a convenient place for incoming or outgoing mail. A small hole bored in the botton of one will make a holder for a ball of string. With the -lid removed it can receive a tumbler of cut flowers. TWO USEFUL IDEAS. To remove hair and thread that be- come entangled in a carpet sweeper you will find for the ‘small sum of 10 cents a curry comb may be bought that will ceani the sweeper in almost ro time. This will save much time and labor for the housewife. To peel ripe tomatoes, place toma- toes in cold water for a few minutes, afterward scrape’ carefully using the back of a silver knife. this better than scalding them. CUFFS FIT SNUGLY. This year the fit of the cuffs has much to do_with the smartness of the costume. The long, tight cuffs are meant to fit really snugly about the wrist. So if vou buy a ready made frock with long cuffs that do not fit, have it remodeled to fit snugly and neatly. Then fit it with buttons, books and eves or snap fasteners so that the sieeves may be taken on and off. ON TOAST. If you wish to piece out a dish of vezetables, serve it on toast. Any vegetatle except potatoes will be im- proved if served on buttered toast. CONCERNING WOMEN. New York has a “scrubwoman evan- gelist.” London has thirty woman tramway conductors. Four of America’s richest women are unmarried. More than 66,000 women are now with the French' Red Cross. Many railway ticket agents pan are women. in Ja- German women, it is said, have re- fused to boycott French fashions. The British government pays Queen Alexandra an annuity of $350,000 omen are engaged in more than 250 Industrial occupations in Pennsyl- vania. Miss Marguerite Ogden is one of the most successful attorneys in Califor- nia. When Japanese women go to th theater they begin dressing for it thc day before. B TO SAVE OILGLOTH.

Mr. Editor: Well, well, Cloud Dig- ger still has the nerve to claim his predictions approach accuracy. In first alf of month he predicted two storm periods, of four days each. Only one of the eight days were stormy, and that merely a good rain, on 12th. The all day snow storm of 15th he failed to predict, the only reéal storm of the month. In last half of month he pre- dicted a storm period “just before Christmas” and a “big disturbance the last of the month." Neither came true. There was a little rain and snow on 21st, a litle more rain on 22nd, with wind at night, 23d, 24th, 25th and 26th were fine days, as were all the clos- ing days, He also predicted in these words: “Thermometer will drop be- low zero three times only in Decem- ber 1916 “Another December of much disease of pulmonary nature.” Zero was not touched once and there was almost no lung disease. His fore- cast of “a fine month” camo true, as did_his prediction of “no .ice-cutting” S0 far as I have learned. But on the whole his forecasts are no nearer accuracy than are those printed more than a year ahead in the vatent medicine almanacs. MRS. T. oluntown, Jan. 4, 1917. Insist on Strict Sanitation. Mr. Editor: In view of the fact that the secretary of the state board of health has in preparation bills to pre- in Hartford asking for & large appro- priation of public money and, inciden- tally an unwarranted increase of pow er to enforce its mandates, it would seem to citizens, taxpayers, and par- man to explain and demonstrate his ability to produce results. We learn from his article in your issue of Jan. 2nd entitled “Small Pox Menace” ‘that it is too late to talk of restriction plans to check the discase. When we reflect that our sister city, Waterbury, has been in the throes of a small pox epidemic for months past and no efforts have been made by their ponderous health board to check it advance by sanitary methors, when i is patent that they only intend to make and reiterate the only plea they ever utter, to wit: frequent and thor- ough vaccination, there is small hope of subduing the epidemic. Now,*Mr. Fditor, I am in position to relate a few facts regarding the condition in Waterbury. I was frequently present in that city during 1902 and 1903, when the battle was raging for medical free- dom and sanitation as against com- pulsory vaccination and school inspec- tion, which was finally forced on the tax payers regardless of the protest of many citizens ahd in spite of the re- fusal of the board of finance of the city council to appropriate $800 asked for by the board of education. Water- bury, however, was saddled with this measure in a’peremptory manner by the action of its board of health which, finding in its possession an unexpend- ed balance proceeded to appoint, without any warrant of law, a medical Inspector of schools at a salary of $1,200.

Now let me here remark that if the afflicted citizens of Water- bury had paid more heed to the truths uttered Dby the late Dr. 8. B. Munn, who_spent most of his declining years combatting this silly superstition, had been more active in demanding a Vig: orous attention to sanitation on the part of their municipal rulers thinss would present a different aspect and the city would not be under a cloud of pestilence as today. There is. not an instance on record where energetic and persistent attention to sanitation bas not been rewarded by a prompt subsidence of an epidemic of any na- ture. I would now remind the citizens of Norwich that they are practically in the same boat with Waterbury. That medical inspection has been forced upon our schools, and _ when we read between the lines of Mr. Se- cretary Black’s manifesto we can oniy reach. one conclusion. That 1s, that the end and aim of it all is to enforce compulsory vaccination among _the children of our schools. Unlike Wa- terbury, however, Norwich has the remedy in its own hands. Our citizens realize full well the value of sanita- tion and as in the days of 1903 will not hesitate to demand its vigorous cnforcement. Again they are not eas- ily stampeded by scare headlines is- sued by mushroom scientists and fur- thermore realize the fact that our chil- dren are the healthiest in the state, consequently are naturally immune to the influence of a threatened invasion of disease of any nature. This we have proven repeatedly during fifteen years. Let us insist upon a policy of strict sanitation and our eity wiil be a model for all New England cities and will be deserving of the title of “Pride_of" well as the “Rose cof New England.” Pestilence will pass s it has for years. If on the con- we become lethargic and trust to luck and Hsten to the warnings of the seif seeking health protectors or consult our fears rather than our rea- son we shal] certainly come to real- ize the fact that w DAVIS.
