THE GOOD INFLUENCE OF BOOKS The American Library ociation’s movement to raise a million dollars to furnish libraries to the nation’s en- sted men is in the interest of a more dependable manhood. The men in the camps and in the trenches need means of diversion, and a good selection of books will prove and a a stay g lessing. tes the association interest manifested in “Almost all of the boys here would rather read tl play cards and our most exciting gambling when a book appears to d¥aw straws to see who'll be second and third and fourth on the waiting list. Any book will do. Séme like novels and, some like historles, and some like books of travel. But in a pinch we'll find good reading in even arithmetic or grammar Each city and town in the land is asked to turn 5 per cent. of its pop- ulation into doliars, for the pleasure and good of the young men they have sent into the war. Hope is entertained by the Library Association that the $1,000,000 needed will be subscribed in a short time, and the library war service committee is anxious that every man, woman and an child in the country should have a “finger in the pie,” or at least a dol- lar in the fund. =it s raae DIFFERENT WAYS OF MEETING AN EXIGENCY. The high price of all kinds of food- stuff is perplexing all eéstablishments who cater to the public. Wherever meals are supplied the question is whether it is best to in- crease the price 25 to 30 per cent., or reduce the portion to each individual, and then if what is received at regu- lay rates does not satisfy the patron, let him increase his own bill by addi- tional orders. It is alleged that the increase of portions to satisfy the patron with the advance made is a mistake because of the ration was sufficient before, this increase ends in greater waste, against which all caterers are warned by the government to guard. The cutting down plan is being adopted by many leading service cor- porations in this country, and then if the ration served to a customer is not enough he orders the requisite amount of food and pays the addi- tional price. A QUESTION OF BREAD. Isn't American bread good enough for people across the seas? We are requested to eat bread one-third meal whether we fancy it or not to save wheat. Why should not our English cousins take bread of the same for- mula and quality to lessen the demand upon us for wheat. If we must create a big surplus of wheat for the allies, why should not they do all they can to make that surpius go as far as pos- sible? America will have three billion bushels of corn, and foreign countries call for only forty million bushels. In time of stress why should they not 1ry new food as weil as ourselves? It seems to be a fit time now for our foreign frierds to become more familiar with the nutritious quality of corn and having learned the value of corn for man or beast they might increase the demand for it abroad thus widening the market for Ameri- ca’s greatest nutritious erop. EDITORIAL NOTES. _Since the German government is not likely to be reformed it should be de- horned. If pocketless trousers are to be- come the fashion, hip pockets will have to be added to shirts. E Tncle Sam cmmends the women to “can, pickle, jell and dr: and lets the men go rignt on smoking. When peace dawns divine right of | rulers should be tabooed. That hum- bug has wrought ruin enough. Gen. Hindenburg declara: O confidence is as firm as a rock.” Ger- many’s confidence-game wil! not work.

Should the men who volunteered and were rejected wear the same kind of a button as those who didn’t volunteer but were exempted? The wav “Germany borrows money of Switzerland is after the manner of the highwayman who borrows your monev on the pike. « Willlam Hohenzollern has a thous- and paid agents in America today, do- ing what he would order executed any man for doing in Germany If Germany could defeat the Eng- lish navy she wouldn't care whether America was warlike or neutral, she would take it and mulct it The patriot whose vision includes a commission before it has been earned are made of poor stuff. Place hunters are not good fighting men! It said 20,000 Russians were blown to pleces by the .cannon they deserted. Following bad leaders re- sulted in their extermination. John Barleycorn doesn’t think any man is fool enough to count him as a friend. OId Tanglefoot would put a dunce’s cap on such a fellow. Women are working in England as stevedores and loading 10,000 ton ships! \Vhere is the man who thought woman’s sphere was the kitchen? There is one thing to be said of the American hen: She was never mean enough to push eggs to a dollar a dozen. She's a victim not a culprit. The American in Honolulu who failed to register is called a slacker, and notified he will have to live twice to live it dow That’s going some! Fashion is on the point of declar- ing that women called to do a man’s work are entitled to wear trousers. Scme wear them without meeting this requirement, A German woman'’s statement: “The highest principle of Germany is: ‘Do right and fear no one.’” We all wish the highest principle of Germany was being honored. Whoever thought the world's needs would require America -to resort to food control, transportation control and press control. Prussianism has a world-wide pressure. It was in October 1915 that the Kai- ser said: ‘I shall stand no nonsense from America after the war!” After the war his zonc of influence will be as limited as the Czar's.

Newspapers placed under carpets and rugs are most satisfactory, and by using a long stitch they may be sewn together on the machine, making squares as large as may be required. Turpentine is the best preventive for moths. Saturate pieces of brown paper with same and lace in boxes. Tea is one of the foods which it will rot do to keep in a giass jar. Tea loses its strength in strong light and deteriorates in a weak lght. A handkerchief wet with eau de cos logne and held under the eves will help to remove the dark lines caused by fatigue. A strensthening drink for the aged is made by boiling a tablespoon of pure honey in half a pint of water. It vou have a pan or bottle of sour- ed milk, let it stand until it is thick, put tarnished silver forks, spoons and small pieces into shallow pan and pour the milk over them. Let them remain in the milk half an hour or longer, then wash and rejoice in their bright- ness. Ink spots mayv be taken out of deli- cate white goods with chlorinated so- da. A few drops poured on will make the ink aisappear at once. This should not be used on silk. The easiest w is to use a clean whisk broom that should be kept for this purpose. Delicious mustard is made by first cins an onion In a bowl and cover- g it with vinegar. Let this stand orty-eight hours. then pour off the vinegar into another bowl, add a little -~d pepper. salt and sugar and emough #+ mustard to thicken to a cream. The proportions should be a teaspoon >f the pepper and <alt and twice that »f sugar. KEEPING BABY COVERED. One woman has fonnd the following substitnte for ninning an Infant or mall child 3 bed and has saved much \me in mending torn ecrib sheets Fold four rsixteen irch lenszths of white cotton fane in half and stitch on [old firmlv to the lonw edges of the shact. ahout a font anart. twn on each side. berinning as near the tdh as da- sired. Tis these to the frame of the mrine. Blarkets can he pinned to the top <heet without tearine either, or it s not necessary to pin them at all ADDS CLOSET ROOM. b Percons living in anartments or fo-- nished -poms will find thls a useful gevice for increasing closet capacity: Fasten one end of a heavy wire (ple ‘Are wire works wellf to a hook in he rlosat. thread the other end shrough the sprine of a patent clothes- sin, wind the wire ahont the second and sc on around the closet until there is # clothesnin between each pair of hooks This is an excellent way of holding skirts or waists and can be temoved easily. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. When a persom faints immediately place the person in a Iving position, with head lower than the body.. Tn this way consciousness returns quick- v curalgia is relieved bv applyinz a = of hot =alt, and it will reli iche sometimes. For earache—take a bit of cotton ratting, put upon it a pinch of black pepper.-gather it up and tie it. dip in sweet ofl and insert into the ear. Put flanne! bandaze over the head and cep it warm. It will give immediate celief. Every woman should own a little glass eve cup with. which to apply washes to the eve. A little powdered horacic acid dissolved in water to which a liitle rose water added akes an ideal eyewash. Tt will re- jeve strained and tired eves and will \mpart a natural brightness to them. To keep the evebrows In a zood con- tion use an evebrow brush to smooth them down. A very small portion of olive oil to which a drop of perfume has been added mav be used sparingly smoothing the evebrow awav from the nose when aplving it. Use tweezers to remove an occasional too Jong hair or if it grows over the roof of the nose. CORD FINISE-L Something different as a finlsh for the library table runner and cushion to match is seen in a2 new set which vses a heavy silk cord in a novel man- cer. The cord is run around the en- tire edge of both pieces. but at the corners a little more leisurelv and takes the time to be knotted into rez- ular buttonhole stitches for four inch- €s on each edge: thus it forms a weighty and artistic finish for the corners. When heavy silk tassels ara added in the exact middle of these Fnotted sections the effect is artis- tice in the extreme. UMBRELLA STAND. A unique little umbrella stand Is made in the following manner A wheel off a child’s wagon Is fastened securely to an ordinarv cane: wheel is placed about three-eigkts from ton of cane. Get a shallow dish of either metal or wood. This Is screwed to bottom of cane. The bottom of the stand must be as large as the wheel. Very attractive done-in gilt. SOAP THRIFT. Tt 1= g decided cconomv to buv a number &f cakes of toilet <oap at a time and to let them cet drv before using, for new soft cakes wear away fast. And it is well to pile the soap up. layving a few parallel lenmthwise and a little apart, and others over the ~nace thus formed and so on. The idea is to have as much air cirenlating about the cakes as possible to dry and harden them. DICTATES OF FASHION. Hats are made of zingham. The one-color hat is smartest. Skirts are still short and straight. The latest sweaters have odd weaves. Linen dresses are becoming fashion- able. Collarless necks continue to be pop- ular. Even hats are being made of crochet work Table damask is used in making a nove} skirt. ' A welrd arrangement of wings on one unusual hat a:?antuxm its novel ¥ to sprinkle clothes | appearance. Both hat and wings are beige color. ' Stmplicity marks the most fashion- able garments of the summer. Black satin embroidered in gold makes a dress of rare distinction. It is a fad of the season to have the stripes or a single material run at two, three or more angles in the made-up costume. Ribbons and. roses go to make up some of the attractive corsets. Many are boneless, but are supplied with rubber irsets. The effect 1s at once elegant and subdued and If there is a little bead embroidery employed the touch of the frivolous is thereby imparted and with- out any marring eff¢ct on the ensem- ble. BLEACH YOUR PANAMA. ‘Wash hat with soap and warm water; mix one cup of white cornmeal with one-half.cup of water; now rub mix- ture all over the hat with hand: let dry, then go over the hat again with the dry meal; shake well and your panama will look like new. SAVE THE FAT. ou throw away the body fat of poultry—big layers of clean. sweet, vel- low fat around the gizzard and found elsewhers around the intentines of the chicken? If you do, say specialists of the United States department of agri- culture, you are throwing away fat which French housewives consider the finest of fats for making cakes and especially puff paste. In certain seasons in New York and sther big cities this fat 1s so highly esteemed that it brings as much as $1.10 per poundy So great is the demand for this fat *hat many people make a business of collecting it from butchers and others who dress poultry before delivering it to_customers. Housewives would do well to_insist on having it deliverad if they bu# their noultry dressed. By using chicken fat in cooking they can cu: down the wmount of fat they must uee for that purpose. To prepare it, try it out m a double Loiler or other vessel set in hot water until the fat just melts away from the tissues and can be poured off. This fat becomes ranciu easily and should be kept cool and covered like butter and used in a very few days. f SEWING HINTS. When darning tablé linen it is best to vse a raveling from the goods. Where there is a hole, put under it a piece of the same material, carefully matching the pattern. If the darning is carefully done the hole will not be noticeable. Cut the sleeves out of men's shirts, hem the armholes, cut the neck out, round or square, and turn the front to ihe.back and the back to tne front: the nttonhoies are already made just by changing arouid. This makes a fine big apron. When the tea towels become in from frequent launderings, in center crossways, stitch by machine all around edges. also diagonally from corner to corner both ways. This holds the parts together and makes splendid dish_cloths with more wear than by using straight. Table napkins stitch- ed in this way make sof: wash cloths for the face or for children. AFTERNOON DRESS SUIT. very fold Contrary to the popular belief that 1 tailored suits would hgld full he ushering in of dressY suits There are not a vast number to be sure. but those offered have a decided amount of distinction 0 them. Aside from satin and taffeta, “here is an occasional stunning mods! in silk pcplin. A suit of this material sure to meet with approval. There :s enough body to it to insure a grace- ful hang to the garment: at the same ime it is not at all hoavy weight. | When care is experienced in the devel- cpment of the garment one can be as- sured that the result will be pleasing. A charming model is fashioned in taupe silk poplin combjned with metal Lrocade in the same shade. The skirt is shown with hip draperies suggest- | Ing slightly the barrel sill.ovette. Over ‘his a very cleverly cut coat falls in emart graceful folds. CLEANING CORALS. To clean coral beads. put a piece of soda about the size of a pea into a vowl of water hot enoush to dissolve the soda. Rub some ordirary soap on the fingers, then rub on the beads. Rinse them in clean cold water and dry n a clean cloth. B EGGS. To determine the exact age of eggs, dissolve ahout four ounces of common :nli in a quart of pure water and then ‘mmerse the egg. I it be cnly a day or so old, it will sink to the bottom of ‘he dish, but if it be three davs old it ~ill float: if more_ than five, it will fome to the surface. CANDLE WELDING. _To make a candle fit a candlestick, dip the end of the candle in hot water to soften the wax and then push it \nto the candlestick. CONCERNING WOMEN. _More than 20 per cent. of the muni- tion workers in France are women. Women are now emploved as bag- gage “smashers’ at French railroad stations. More than 1,800,000 women are ac- tive farmers and gardeners in the United States. % If the war continues for three vears many of the railroads of the United States will be operated by women. The age limits for women employed in the British governmen: and sent to France must be over twenty years and under 40, Twenty-one women are now em- ploved as machinists in the Locust Point shops of the Baltimore & Ohic railroad. They all wear overalls,and caps just the same as the men The New York Medical College and Hospital for Women war unit. which was the first unit of women physi- jcians to offer their services fo the Tnited States is drilling for war work. WHEN ROASTING MEAT. When roasting meat la¥ a clean white muslin cloth (wet) #ver it. In this way the meat does not require basting so often, and is muck nicer when done. PRESERVING REMINDER. Keep your doors and windows closed while filling preserving jars, thus avoiding drafts, and breakage will he saved. RECIPES. Marshmallow Dessert: One-! pint Ccream whipped), sweeten and vor walnuts_che put a iayer dtw then marshmallows. then the cream. and =0 on, until you have used ail the in- gredients. Make it in a salad bowl right after breakfast. It is better to stand awhile to let the nuts season the cream. Novelty Potatoes: Chop_ very fin one quart cold boiled p&me., them into a saucepan with one ecream, two tablespoons butter, and pepper: set on fire, stir until hot, then turn into a baking dish. Cover with bread or cracker erumbs and bake brown in a brick oven. A al Word For Cause of Ireland. Mr. Editor: 1 confess, not having a lifelong experience in the Irish movement, nevertheless I have made a deep study of it; and it has siven me an insight jnto what Ireland wants, If vou will give me this final hear- ing, I will be done with it. No rule, however good, can be a substitute for self-rule. This is the only ‘attitude of mind to bring to the Irish problem, yet it is precisely this viewpoint that has bDeen singularl lacking in England’s various schemes of governing Ireland. The uprising has_entirely changed the face of Ire- land. It has forced back from con- stitutional channels the whole tide of public opinion. The war cry, “For small nations!" has awakened old echoes in freland, the great war, altering as it is the en tire face of Europe, has left its marks upon Ireland, or rather has revived partly effaced images. Swift revolution by violent methods ras taken the place of peaceful evo- lution; a peopie, that in normal peace times ‘would have been satisfied with freedom by instaliments from home rule to federal or colonial self-govern- ment to complete freedom, is now de- sirous of striding over the interven- ing steps and attafning at a bound absolute emaneipation. This is the penaliy that England has to pay for delaying settlement long overdue she has failed to keep step and now must be_forced over the ground. Parnell declared twenty odd years ago, in refusing to consider any home rule scheme a final_settlement of Ire- land’s demand: 0 man can set bounds upon the onward march of a nation. The real, the deciding factor today in the settlement of Ireland’s fu- ture government, is not Ensland, but Ireland herself. Any solution that overlooks or fails to satisfy Irish de- mands cannot be final. The Irish peo- ple themselves—that is, the adult pop- ulation, men and women—must be the final arbiters as to how they ars to be governed At the outbreak of the war Vi count Grey declared that Ireland was the one “brizht spot” in the British empire: today Premier Liovd George declares that feelimg in Ireland today is more bitterly “anti-British than ever it was in the days of OMver Cromwell.’ This change in sentiment has been effected by the uprising: and by the methods used to suppress it, and by ihe subsequent regime of persecution and martial law enforced in Ireland. A military dictator has superseded the civil authority: trial by fury for po- litical offences has been suspended, all public assemblies are under police sanction, the Irish press has an ad- ditional or more stringent censorship, and free speech and public opinion impossible. These factors must be reckoned with by those who propos= to face the Irish problem with a view to_understanding, if not solution. If ull these measures arc deemed necessary for the Defence of the Realm. as is allezed: then it is clear that it would be tragic blindness to attempt to minimize the strength and power of the Irish republican party. Tt was a fatal blunder to pass over this party before the rising, to rlass them as a ‘“negligible minority” “with |a mere mosquito press.” and downfali to constitutionalism and the Irish par- ty_has been the consequence. That negligible minority is giving them no rest, and the mere “mosqui- to press” has stung the body politic/ in- to a fever which cannot now yed by any parliamentary panacea. It has been said by a British states- man that if the iatest proposal of set- tiement by constitution failed; then God help us—a confession of bank rugtey of English statesmanship he Sinn Fein party has publicly repudiated the conference, pointing out the defects that mark its charac- ter and demanding a referendum of the adult population to decide the question. ng in that (the other de lnows well the answer of a referendum in this case). The Irish renublican party prefers to wait until the peace conference at the end of the war in order to bring the Irish question before it for in- ternational decision on the basis of the other’ small nations. Tt is true the Irish party and the Unfonist party has accepted the convention idea. but they no longer represent Irelard. A general election tomorrow—the so- |called Sinn Iein party would sweep the country. Bye-elections have dem- lonstrated this by returning Sinn Fein Pcandidates pledsed to ignore parlia- mentary methods, and to avoid the British house of commons tn consti- tuencies where for the last twenty-fiv vears the Irish party nominees nad been returnefl unopposed. These cor tinued victories at- the polls after over iwenty-five vears of uncontested elec- tions: are all the more remarkable in- dications of the sweeping revulsion of sentiment against the Irish party in favor of Sinn Fein—against home rule —and for complete independence, in- asmuch as the vote by which these men are elected is a “property” a vote of the older and more conser- vative element in rural constituencies where the peasant or purely agricul- tural element predominates. For the rliamentary vote in the United Kingdom, depends upon the property aualification, the British government having a more reactionary franchise thap that of any of the European stafes, The Sinn Fein element being the more progressive, is still more largely represented among the younger ele- ments of the community: men and women, those who do not enjoy the privilege; in fact, of voting for par- liamentary candidates. The wider the franchise the stronger would be their proportion. They are more numerous in the cities and towns than in the country, among the better educated and thoughtful than among the more backward. They stand for higher ideals in civic life and are opposed to the corrupt political elements found in the older parties. They possess therefore a_dvnamic force that is nrk- ing itself increasingly felt throughout Ireland, and while the power and pres- tige of the older partles are on the wane the new movement for independ- ence gains every -day more recruits. There remain logically but two solu- tions of Ireland’s grievance, govern- ment by force, the present regime of martial Jaw and government by con- sent within or without the British em- pire. Each solution has its supporters in Great Britain and Ireland, some pro- pose waiting until there perfect agreement between all, that would be idle and futile, for that will never be. The party that will triumph in the end will be that which can enforce by methods of arms, or, by noac:;ul ar- bitration its special panacea, the part insight, and endowed with brains and be al- !

H. CUMMINGS. Norwich. The Pope’s Proposats and Irish Ind. pendence. Mr. Editor: Mr. Cummings having declined to discuss his favorite topic with me, this writer may be excused, perhaps, in pursuing the argument, on ent'’s valuable impetus. We want to call attention to an important fact, namely, that while we disagree with Mr. Cummings, we are in accord with the Holy Sed In our last task we spoke of Irish educational advantages, and now we 'l draw attention to Ireland's re- ligious superfority. Speaking ‘of the Roman Catholic church, Ireland may well be put at the head for the pro- duction of good Catholics (and Protest- ants—-although this must be sald in a whisper). The priesthood and laity—for edu- cation, culture and devotion to the manual’stand head and shoulders over every other devotees of the papal flock. A census of its prelates, in the United States alone, will show their numbers and digni exceeds all oth- er nations. This {is proper, for in the e: centuries of Christianity Ire- land was named The Land of Saints because she sent her sons and saints— aposties and successors of Patrick, to the pagans of Central Europe and taught from scriptures of their own transeribing, the doctrines of Christ and His passion. Even what is now Germany was blessed by the teachinz of St. Killian, A. D. 689—afterward Bishop of Wur- temberk—of whom Moshiem say: “St. Killlan exercised his ministerial functions with sush success among the eastern Franks, that vast nur bers of them embraced Chrictian and the venerable Bede, speaking the religlous conduct of these Hi- bernian scholars said: “They lived in no other way than they tausht.” 1t is a pity that we of toda) so0 little of these origing of Chr ity =@ pearly related to us and the world.
