UNREST IN AUSTRIA. terested As time goes on it is made evident that all we hear abou: the unstable <onditions and lack of unity in Aus- tria-Hudgary is not simply talk and it is quite evident that it is not all propaganda put forth to confuse the @llies and cavse them to turn their thoughts to consideration of peace. For a long time there has been un- vertainty in that coun This ha been clearly manifested by the u expected ings in numerous localities because of food conditions. labor has time and again been showing its dissa®nc- tion, certain of the people have §en |t 12 working for peace and in the zovern- ing bodies much opposition and em- barrassment has resulted from the po- Sition taken by the representatives of different closses. That these conditions had much to do with the famous letter which was written by Emperor Charies cannot be doubted. Austria appears to be seeth- ing with unrest and this needs no clearer demonstration than the act of the emperor in ordering the Austriaa premier to adjourn parliament indefi- nitely and at the same time directing him to take steps which will render it impossible for the resumption of its activities. That is indeed an indication of the uncontrollable situation which is faced by the head of the dual monarck Try as he would it has been impos: ble for him to straighten out the sit- uation apd satisfy the opposition.

The lids of saucepans often need to be raised while cooking—and a clothes peg with a tack in its top will answer the purpose. Fix the peg on the edge of the saucepan as if it were a line and rest the 1id on the tack. Hospital gauze can be supplied at home at small expense. Cut the gauze into yard lengths, fold and roll it, then put the rolls in an old towel and bake for two hours in a moderate -oven, taking care that it does not scorch. Handy for colds, burns or cuts. To curry potatoes cut up some cold cooked potatoes in cubes or rough pieces, and place in a frying pan in which butter has been melied With some curry’ powder dredged into it. Slake the potatoes in the pan until they are thoroughly hot. and serve. Cut some rather fat ham or bacon into slices, and fry to a nice brown; lay them aside to keep warm. Then mix together equal quantities of po- tatoes and cabbage or any vegetable left from dinner, and fry in the fat left from the ham. Serve with equal quantities of the mixture on the bacon. Season to taste. = To make a fish custard take one pound of any cooked fish, remove skin, bones, etc., and shred it fine. Put the fish in the bottom of ‘a pie-dish, sprinkle with pepper and salt, beat up one egg and a litile salt, add a break- cupful of milk, and pour over fish: put a few small pieces of butter on top, and bake in a- quick oven. st USE OF GINGHAM Everything is taking to gingham plaids, even needlework. And this is not to be wondered at when you con- sider how neat and symmetrical for practical purposes the gingham check and plaid can be. Here it is applied to the end of a useful searf or runner in eighteen inch width. The gingham part of it is simply a matter of out- liming those squares with neat stitches This scarf may be stamped on 1li- nen, if you can afford that luxury—or doily cloth, cotton rep, lawn, batists, crash toweling or linen. It will not be hard to do this stamping yourself: merely repeat the design on each end with the color you want to emphasize. Note that the intersections of those| nes are interrupted by a cluster of four small single stitches of another color and a knot of a third color. | TO REMOVE PAINT. To remove paint from common wooden chairg' scrub them with a strong solution of g soda. FINGER MARKS. | e 1 HEALTH AND BEAUTY. | Facial gymnastics are responsible for wrinkles that find lodzment over the entire face, from forehead ‘to the! chin. Well-poised women seldom have | wrinkles, - because they have a firm| grip on both nerves and emotions Corns really are warning signs that| we are ill-treating our feet, either by wearing tight shoes, which in time d form the bones of the foot, or by wear- ing shoes which permit the foot to chafe, thus submitting the surface of | the foot to intermittent pressure. When the eyes are weak a green shade prevents the glare from striking in. Clerical workers, as a rule; use this protection both for shielding the eyes and keeping the muscles of the face in a relaxed condition. The same precaution should be taken by needle- women. For croup in children have ready at hand a mixture of powdered alum and sugar—two parts suzar to one of the alum. Give a little of this (about the size of a navy bean) as quickly as possible when the cough comes on and you will find quick relief. Dark rings under ‘the eyes show that the body in one way or another is being overtaxed by worry, or that the physical system is deranged. Lack of rest, late hours. or an irregularity of the kidneys will bring those gray, heavy lines. Drink plenty of water every day; get out of doors regularly; look after the diet and get to bed early. THEIR OWN THINGS. Let the.children have their own washcloths and towels. Children de- light in having their very own things, and the magic which is brought about by these simple articles embroidered and labeled is wonderful. Even grimy handed boys have been known to relish their ablutions when accompanied with a_washcloth crotcheted around the edgé with their favorite color, which is generally red. and marked in one cor- with _their t washcloth which has his name printed on it. Indelible ink, put on by his own pen. will mean much. Try the trick and see. Little dainty girls love dain things. They like fancy colored cross- stitch patterns on their towels and washcloths. They like their favorite pictures of cats or dogs or dolls or little girls or sunbonnet babies. MAKE TOILET SQAP. Stir one can of potash into one quart of cold water and let cool.

The four cornered hat is fashionable. Gray and brown shoes are in favor. Large black -velvet bags have gold tops. Black satin covers some of the new hats. Serge tunics are worn over black satin slips.. Belts on coats have double breasted closings. Petticoats in changeable colors are favored. Some new hats have a tendency to the poke effect. Matelasse is being used for some of the new robes. Little folis are having their collars and cuffs edged with fluted ruffles. Ostrich feathers and furs are fre- quently worn with plain dark cos- tumes. They are wearing collars and cuffs of plain white linen with serge dresses. FRILLS AND FURBELOWS. After several seasons when outdoor- ing clothes have been worn from sun- rise to sunset it is a relief to find that we may again indulge in frilis and fur- belows, in flounces and in the truly feminine frocks in the afternoon and during the evening. And many of these truly girly frocks are on the Delly Varden order, reflecting the quaint conceits of the 1330 period It is with real enthusiasm that the wo- men have taken up the frocks of pale blue and pink mauve and vellow or- gandie, made with flounces and frill- ing, fichus and big sashes. Just the frocks that call for old-timey cameo brooches, lockets and bracelets, and even the' sash pins. And if you would add the touch that is going to lin! you with the picture of your grand- mother when she was a girl you wil' wear the locket probably of enamel to match in coloring your frock, ‘sus- pended on a narrow black velvet rib- bon. If you thought it rather spoiled the effect of the lovely cameo broozh, then tie the black velvet ribbon arour: your wrist and let the locket dangie from it. DRAPED CAPES. The popularity of the cape has beeit months ago capes were seen only here and there where the smartly gowned women are wont to congregate. Bu* like a flash of the eve, all the shops Dbegan to feature the cape in window displays and the showrooms, and im- mediately the cape became conspicu- ous by the great numbers worn in tr. street. - First came the regulation cape, circular in shape, then the straignt piecé of material attached plainly to the deep yoke, or often gathered: ‘then the draped affair. Each it might be admitteq were fashionable, the prefer- ence being decidedly for the type best suited to, the individual. Usually, these capes are in dark blue, and again, they are seen in taupe and tke materials are serge, gabardine, tri- cotine, velours and satins. FOOT COMFORT. ‘When the linings of boots or shoes are worn through in the heels u<e surgeons’ adhesive plaster.

PASTE ON PANTRY DOOR. The lover of thrift is often con fronted by -directions for household economy emanating, as irial shows, from abstrait. rather than practical, domestic science. Try these suggest- ions from an old-fashioned New Ens- land housewife: . 1. Eggs are not needed for a rice pudding. 2. Milk is not needed in cake made with baking powder. 3. Milk is not needed for any kind of wholewheat bread. Even when' mitk abounds and is cheap, water is prefer- able. “4. Half, or even quarter, of a yeast cake will raise a good amount of bread for baking. 5. “War cake” which calls for a package of raisins and much shorten- ing is not economical. 6. Do not allow a servant to throw out remnants of shredded wheat left in the bottom of the box. More than a cuptul is often so lost. 7. An unstrained soup made from remnants of yesterday's meat makes a good meal. No meat course is re- quired therewith. 8. Are you careful to make as many pies as possible from one squash? 9. Are you careful to allow every bit of the white to drain, or to scrape it, from an egg which you break? 10. Neither broken crackers nor the crumbs in the bottom of the box should be thrown away. Use ' them for fish, oysters, ete. < 11. Memoranda of all sorts, as well as rough drafts of manuscript may be kept on pieces of wrapping paper. This is the kind of economy which good housewives practiced during the civil war. 12 .Remember that the old New Eng- lander considered wastefulness, even among the rich, sinful. It is a crime when the nation calls for thrift. WHITE SHOES AGAIN. The white shoe, so much admired last summer, is here again in all of its popularity to be worn indiscrimi- nately with tailored suits and summer frocks just as last season. The new -canvas used in these shoes is so finely woven that it is difficult to tell it from kid or buckskin at first glance. The white shoe, after all, is practical. One gives more care to it for the most part than to the tan.

Mrs. Dorothy McDonnell Rolph of Denver has accepted the position as di- rector of the compensation bureau of war risk insurance in tht war depart- ment. Advice to the women of this country not to talk peace or expect the war to be over soon, but to buckle up and get’ to work to help win, is ‘en by Mrs. August Belmont of New who has just returned from England andl France. DAINTY WAISTS. Never hang silk or lace waists on a line to dty. Squeeze dry and fold in a bath towel until dry enough to press then press on the wrong side ver. carefully, heing- sure to keep a good shape, as that counts. KID LININGS. Bright colored kid linings are a fea- ture of some of the new gloves. Deep violet and rose and green, they are. Facings, they should more correctly be callel. The colored part is turned back over the outside of white in a wide cuff. RECIPES. Oatmeal Fruit Meringue. Turn left- over oatmeal into a round mold and cool. When . cold, turn out, cut in slices one-half inch thick slice in a round dish, put a layer of berries or sliced pedches on it and on top of this another slice of oatmeal. Beat the whites of 2 eggs until light, add 4 tablespoons powdered sugar and beat until fine and glossy. Spread this meringue over the top of the fruit and oatmeal, dust with powdered sugar and stand in the oven until a golden Brown. (Yolks of eggs may be used to make a custard). Barley Hermit Cakes. One-quarter cup fat, % cup sugar, 1 egg, 2 table- spoons mil cups barley flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, one-third cup chopped raisins, % cup . chopped nuts, % teaspoon cinnamen, tea- spoon cloves. Combine the ingredi- ents as for cake, add enough barley flour to make a dough stiff enough to be rolled. Roll thin, shape with a cookie cutter and bake on tin sheet. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Sabhath Observance. Mr. Editor: One of the causes of rational degeneration is the neglect and violation of the required, scrip- tural Sabbath observance. Many othe causes contribute to that lamentable and.awful end, but the verdict of h tory is not indefinite or uncertain as to the prominent part played in that sad tragedy through the blatant and fiagrant disobeying of the fourth com- mandment in the Decalozue. And the trend of commercialism and social life seems to be to the discouragement of a_scientific and relizious observance of one day in seven for other than sécular purposes. Business and pleas. ure hold high carnival upon the Lord Day in many localities and whatever of law there is against such a_vicious procedure utter] forcement at the hands of time-serv- ing officials. But agitation, that friend of a]l reform, will serve a ben- eficent purpose in the interest of Sab bath observance. Like all great in fuities, the desecration of God's Holy Day cannot bear the light of 4n awak ened sentiment. From every angle, commercial, scientific, social, political and religous, let the flashlight and the searchlight of Truth be thrown upon that lax and loose morality which pays but little regard for the Day of Rest. A “peculiar people” are reeded for the maintenance of that standard of righteousness so essential to national health—that ideal of pub- lic conduct which revolts at intimid tion or compromise and will not listen to the enchantments of an arrogant worldliness. If not enough people are reached through the pulpit, let press be evoked for that needed ag tation which will afford no rest until not only new and better Sunday laws are enacted, but an enforcement of such laws is obtained as was never known before. That a material as well £s a spiritual prosperity awaits such 2 nesded reform certainly no close ob- rver can fail to discern or the in- fferent refuse to admit. It is im- vortant that public attention should be constantly called to a strict regard for the Sabbath. Our national life and perpetuity urgently require it. We <hall need it not simply-that we may outlive other nations, but above al that we may possess and enjoy a sub- stantial peace and prosperity. E., H. PARKINSON, D. D. Los Angeies, Cal., April 26, 1918. Views of the Vigilantes GOETHE'S PROPHECY, Goethe said, “The Prussian is by na- ture cruel; civilization will make him ferocious.” Goethé¢ was prophetic— clvilization, as far as it can affect the Prussian, has made him ferocious, and conceit has rendered him invulnerable to reform. Through scores of years conzenital megalomania has been crattily fed-and augmented by official angd philosophical and literary and re- ligious reiteration of German greatness until the idea has become national hypnosis. This treatment has left the Pan-Ger- man imagination with only a captive flexibility of the dachshund variety, so near the ground that it seems to have been born under a bureau. Present Pan-Germany cannot see with its ar- rested spiritual development that its kaiser, as Emerson said of Napoleon, is doomed to ultimate defeat; because he is fighting against the moral law of the universe. They don't recognize moral law. They can’t even see it;a dense mate- rialism has covered their organs of spiritual perception.

STORIES OF THE WAR Fighting a Super Submarine. Report of an encounter between a German _crui ubmarine and the steamship Chincha with an American naval armed guard was made pyblic by Secretary Daniels. E. D. Arnold, cheif hoatswain’s mate. commanding the armed guard, says the U-boat had two conning towers and was armed with five-inch gun: It- has been known for some time that the German submarine were using five-inch guns, but they arc short range guns, and the American four-inch weapon is considered by American naval authori- ties a match for them. According to Arnold’s report, enemy submarine was sighted p. m. on March 21, by J. Weiman, s man, second class. lookout in the for- rd crow's nest. About two minu- aft and killed A. S. Edwards, seaman, ass, and two of the ship's A number of sheils burst close by and over the stern.
