GETTING THE NEW CABINET. Much interest is manifested in the outcome of the Japanese cabinet res- ignation. This action which was po- tical means that it has been necessary for the mikado to select a premier who will be satisfactory to the Ja- panese parties as far as possible. Te- ichi held the post of premier for the past two vears and though he may liave been committed to the policy of intervention in Siberia he was never- theless ranked as a conservative vather than a radical. It is not im- probable, however, that the mikado in selecting Marquis Saijoniji to form the new cabinet has chosen an- other from much the same class, or one at least who can bring together the various factions, and at the same time carry out the mikado's views. It is a time when much eepends Japan 6an give to the war throush the Pelp that it 16 able to render iw Rus: sla, Japan is the logical ef afnon; the allies to put down the bolshevi control and to work with the Czecho- Slovaks in establishing & government in that country which will be the meéans of bringing Russia out of its chaotic state. The othérs of coifss are bound to help. and are helping, but ‘Japan is virtually on the gréund, the nearest 'Z, the field of action and this ic the tie when it can be most ef- fective in its Wwork. The situation is such that there cannot be any need- less delay, and while the mikado has complete control in Japan and dics tates what shall be dons, whether it is making war or peace, Arafting new tfeaties 8r putting forth other légisia- tion the wisdom of getting a ithited and sympathetic cabinet can be ap- rreciated, afid that is the task which confronts him at the présent time. WHAT BULGARIA MUST DO. According to the reply which has been fthade to the Bulgatian request for anh armistice looking to the ar- rangement of a peace which would re- move that country from the war, it is quite evident that thé entente nationg are not disposéd to stebp into any trap which would be to the advantage of the central powers. As was to be cxpected, and as was indicated by the teply given by General Bsperey to the hearers of the request, the allied na- tions require Bulgaria to uncendition- aily surrender. That means that Bul- faria must get out of the war, that it must withdraw its forces from terri- tory which it has oecupied and that it must demobilize ils army and sever its relations with Germahy, Austtia and Turkey, That may or may not have been in the mind of Premier Malinkoff when he sent emissaries to the commander of the allied forces in Macedonia, bui hat is what is required and if Bul- ria as a nation wants peace that is e way in which it can get it. There be no opening left which woull can ow Bulgaria a breathing spell in which to reorzanize its army or (o ance frofii Other sources. s being guarded against by the continuance of the activities in that theater of the war. There can be n, chances taken of the peace arrange- ment falling through aftér an armis- tice has been declared. Thus there has beén no letting up in' the advantage which the allied ermies are operating under. The Bu'- cars are daily being pushed back and the pesition of the entente armies im- proved. Valuable points are being taken and not only are the Bulsars feeling the effect of it but wise threatening the Austrian for in Albania. There can and there will be no let fup in the magnificent drive. GOOD EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW, Intimation has come of lite to-the effect that Holland is prepared to r sume the consideration of an economic agreement with this couniry, which means of course that that counttry which is suffering from a shortage of supplies, but has been prevented from getting the relief which It heeds by the threats which have been /made tc it by Germany, is profiting from the sensible action that has been taken Ly several of its neizhbors among the neutrals. If the Dutch are hungry there is no reason why they should not get what they need. We have no such abund- ant supply that we cannot make good use of our foodstuffs and other ma- terials, byt if Holland is suffering from the lack of them this country is willing to give it help, but it must be tuily understood that Hoiland must utilize its ships in getting what- it wants, it must agree that rone of the goods shall find their way into Ger- many and in all probability it will e nsked that a certain amount of Dutch +hipping be turned over to the use of the allies. _ It was not so long ago that Ger- many put its fist under the nose of the Hollahders and told them that its ships would be sunk by the U-boats if they entered into any euch under- standing with the allies. Such intimi- dation has been practiced before to the great profit of Gérmany but with ships lying idle Holland ha¢ the means of getting the relief that it seeks and as long as it refrains from doing so it simply means that it is* knuckling to the dictates of the piratical Huns. A resumption of the negotiations wiii mean that lolland is follewing the good example of its neighbors. EDITORIAL NOTES. Don’t overlook the very important duty of getting your Liberty bonds at the eariiest possible opportunity. This is one of the years when the housewife pays slight attention to the pound for pound rule in canning. With Bulgaria feeling itself slip- ping, Greece is reidy and reéjoicing with a new to help it on its way. Baron rian of Austria-Hungary will has » admit that Premier Mali- noff hos gone him one better on the peace talk. ’ The precautions which are being taken against the epread of the in- fluenza are no more drastic than the situation calls for. From the arrests which are being made about the country it is evident that there are still too many enemy agents in our midst. Something to worry about What is eoing to become of all the empty beer harrels, kegs and bottles when prohi- bition goes into effect? The man on the corner says: The arrival of the melancholy days is bad enough without being accompaniel with the Spanish influenza. Chancellor von Hertling is finding out that he cannot-give expression to the kaiser’s ideas, his own and at the same time please the people. That German general who declared “We will settle with the American ar- mies” was right, but the settlement will not be the kind he had in mind. Someone will have to be held re- sponsible for the belief which existed in Germany that General Foch's army 0f manoeuver had sheen wired out. i puffy pockets. The kaiser is reported as diving into a cellar during an air rald at Mann- heim, but he will have to 2o deeper toan that if he expects to keep away from the allies. It was thought that General Allen- by had made a big cateh when it was announced that 15,000 prisoners has been taken in Paestine, but now the number is three times as large and still growing. With the loss to the central pow- ers of upwards of 250,000 in prisoners alone since General IFoch turned the tide of battle, and other casualties which must figure up as large, it not larger, Germany must be wondering how it is going to bolster up its man power, SUGGESTIONS FPR THE HOUSEWIFE Tomatoes for canning must never be over ripe. Excellent muffing can be made of barley &nd hominy. ~ A good marmalade is made of or- ange ahd apricots. _Quick breads can be very well made without afly wheat fiourn. Rice omelét may be made with peas left ovér. The riee is best uced hot. Beat a cake batter as little as pos- sible after flour has been put into the fmixture. FresHly made jelly really has a fin- er flavor than that which has stood for a lohg time. Try whipping cream in small glass lobes such as are used for gold fish t does 1ot spatter. In easeés of burns, powdered char- coal soothes the pain and heals the sore very quickly. To make pies dsliciously brown on top, brush over with milk just before putting them in oven. Av6id the smoke of frying bacon in the kitchen by laying the slices of ba- con on a pie tin and baking in the oven for five or ten minutes. It cooks evenly this way. BREAD MAKING. Cleanliness important forms of cookery, but important for shecia] Feasons in bread making, Bread almost aiways contains hacteria, an these are likely to produce in dough substances which spoil the flavor of the bread. Yeast has no flavor which survives the cooking, and the substances which it produces carbon dioxide and alca- hol, are driven off by the heat of the ovén, Ractetia, on the other hand, are likely to produce sour or rancid sub- stances which are not removed by haking. TO MAKE BROOMS LAST. If a new broom begins to show signs of wear do not throw it away. Soak it in hot suds, put out in the sun to dry and then cut the bristles <o that they are all even lengths again. is in all INTERLINED COATS. Some very good looking mnew fall coats have not a thread of wool in theit outer fabrid. They are made of heavy satin and are lined with hright colored soft satin of equal sub- stantially quality. Between the outer and inner satin surfaces is 2 warm interlining some- times of flannel, sometimes of cotton batting. The lines of these coats are loose and graceful and sometimes a fur collar 2dds to the comfort and smartness, HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Red hands aflict many women dur- ing cold weather. This methcd is said 10 keep the hands soft and white: Be- fore gaing to bed wash the hands with luewarm water and good soap: pat them dry on a small towel and rub into the skin the foliowing lotion; Mix in a bottle the strained juice of two large fresh lemons, the same quantity by measurement of rose or orange flower water (not ULoth) and half of the quantity of compound tinc- ture of benzoine (by measurement al- s0). Shake well before using. If your face lacks intellectuality, the only way to remedy it is by exercise of the mind. Take up a tourse of read- ing and study bevond that which you have hitherto attained. To put it fig- aratively, cultivate the muscies of the brain as you would cultivate ‘he mus- cles of the body. It is the action of the brain that will influence the expres- sion. The use of druzs to dull pain, unless upon the advice of a physician, is not wise. It may work jrreparabia injury fo the heart and digestion. Habitual or even frequent should be treated with consideration, and if the home remedies do not cure them they require medical attention. Never must théy be disregarded on the mistaken principle that they are “headaches only.” Deep breathing does more than al- most anything else to counteract a flat ankl contracted chest with which not one of us can make even a fair ppearance. If we desire to possess a good figure (and it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack to discover a daughter of Eve who did not degire it above all things) we must stand and sit in the right way. ALLEVIATES EARACHE. It earache does not occur often pos- sibly home treatment will alleviate the suffering, which is alwayvs so se- vere while it lasts. Wring out hot cloths and apply them to the ear. This often brings quick relief. Or moisten 2 small piece of cotton, saturated with &weet oil or laudanum, and place it caretully in the ear. This is gencrally efficacious if the trouble is caused by the hardening of the wax. DICTATES OF FASHION. . Many pretty dresses are made of up- holstery materials. Black taffeta is used for collars on brown woolen coats. i White lingerie dresses are trimmed with a little color. New hat brims are longer in front than in the back. White wash satin skirte have full A tremendous revival of shawls has set in abroad. The newest overblouses are almost as long as the tunic. Waists are frequently modeled after men’s evening shirts. Metal girdles emproidered with col- ored silk or beads are used. Oceasionally a jacket is seen reach- ing almost to the knees, Heavy angora wool is used for em- broidering chiffon and linen. Some girdles are made of parrow black velvet ribbon ending in jet tas- sels. ‘White organdie blouses are collared in rose and belted with blue faille. Spanish Sweaters are peing knit in mercer- | ized cotton and trimmed with angora. A sports coat of natural camel's hair cloth is splendiq for many occasions. Scarfs edzed with wool fringe fin- ish some of the prettiest duvetyn coats. Turquoise silk trimmed with laven- der organdie inakes an attractive frock. Ostrich feathers are much used on hats, but usuaily flat under a veiling of tulle. FUR TRIMS TAILORED SUITS. While the separate wrap and one- piece, frock are high in favor, there are many women who are not con- tent without at least one tailored coat and skirt costume in their wardrobe, And there are many smart suits in the fall collection. Some are quite plain save for trimming details in the form of pockets and buttons: others are more dressy, ornamentation being supplied by braid, embroidery and fur. Worsted stitchery is also employved to impart the note of embellishment to the new tailleurs, When fur trimming is used it is frequently applied in patches. The collar and cuffs may be of the fur— and squares or oblongs of peltry will be placed at the sides or at the front and back of the skirt, leaving space for panels which fall quite to the skirt hem. Sometimes the lower purt of the panel is bordered with the fur, the rest of the skirt being untrimmed. SHOPPING BAGS. Now that most of us carfy more packages than we ever did before we are learhifig to6 use bags for shopping. Of course, in some places there are city ordinances against earrying knit- ting, lu% into the shops. A good Geal of shoplifting has been done under the g;‘lgtecuofi of these capacious warry- But, névéertheléss, we find the big knitting bags a great cofivenience for the stowing of small parcels, LAUNDRY HINTS, Stockings and socks, after being soaked in warm water for two hours and then dried before being Worn, will last tiwice as long.

It the yoke of a dress has. become toiled, try cleaning it thus: Have a basin of warm water, a cake of pure white oap and a brush with medium stiff bristies. Spread the yoke care- fully on a flat surface, placing a Tur- kish towel foided several times be- neath it. Apply the soap and water to the yoke, scrubbing carefully until it appears clean. Then place a fresh towel beneath the lace and rinse sev- eral time# with clear cold water. Pull the lacé into shape and allow it to dry. A NOVEL SHOWER. Here is a perfectly charming idea for a shower to be given to a girl who is to marry into the navy. Supposing the affair to be a luncheon, have a <hip fer the table centerpiece and on it pile the gifts, tieq in wee dainty parcels. This shouid be a handker- chief or hosiery shower, as éither may | be wrapped into small packages for piling on the deck, éach to be marked with the doner's name. A large pan may be filled with water 80 the ship will really float, or it may stand oh a round mirtor: the place cards may have sailor lads on them, or dolls dressed as “jackies” mayv be at each cover, with the name of .~ suest on the hatband. The toy d ments have most realistic battleshi: -: one of them could be rented for such an oc- cegion, 1T have no doubt, if there is no small boy from whom to borrow. SOAP BAGS FOR BATH. Save every scrap of soap and fill a four by two inch bag with it. Make the bag of two thicknesses of worn gauze underwear. When one lot of bits is used there will be more ready to refill the bag. SOOTHES BURNING FERET. That burning sensation of the feet is all too often an accompamment of hot, sultry weather, but may be par- tially, if not entirely, overcome with attention. Rest and keeping off th. feet as much as possible is of course the most vital factor in the cure, and frequent bathing is another aimost equally important. Wear éasy shoes about the house and in the streets id heavy soles and high heels, bathe the feet often in cold water and mas- sage them with cocoa butter or elive cil. Dust a little taleum powéer over the feet and into the shces before wearing tight shoes or those that bind the an CONCERNING WOMEN, | Over 12,000 women are needed to} f11 men positions in the munition factories in the Philadelphia district.

Female elevator operators in Mii- waukee have bandsd with the men of that ecity and will form a union to urge a demand for more wages. TO CLEANSE BOTTLES. To cleanse bottles that have held oil place ashes in each bottle, cover with cold water and heat graduaily. Let the water boil for about one hour, then allow it to stand until eold. Wa, the bottles in soa water, then rins DISCOLORED SILVER. A quick way te clean silver that s | not tarnished but merely discolored is | to wash it in a weak solution of am- monia water.

Mix, chill and serve THE DIAMOND SHOAL LIGHTSHIP: The sinki by German submarine of the U. 8. Diamond Shoal lightship, anchored off Cape [Hatteras, gives timely interest to the following war geography bulletin of the National Geographic Society, based on a com- munication concerning lightships re-! ceived by the Society from George R. Putnam, the foremost authority on ighthouses. The bulletin says: otwithstanding the severe con- ditions Diamond Shoal light vessel. | off Cape Hatieras, has in recent vears been maintained on the station with little intérruption. The vessel was moored with a 7,500-pound mushroom anchor and 150 fathoms (900) feet of | heavy chi About one-third of the length from the vessel a submerged spherical buoy was attached to the chain, carrying a part of its weight ang greatly éasing the pull of the ves- sel. “The latest lightships are provided with powerful and distinctive lights and fog signals, They more nearly approach the lighthouse in - design, having a heavy tubular iron mast sur- mounted by a lantern, sometimes with a revolving lens supported like a pen- dulum to hanz vertically. so that the light beam wiil he kept near the horizon regardless of the motien of the vessel. An example is the recently completed Milwaukee light vessel, which shows a double flash every 10 seconds. This vessel has a foz sigmal jthe waiting lists, a wait that it is not intérvais « ind 46 seconds. “Life on ightship is somewhat dreary, bui :of without excitément.) During every fog the crew on Nan- tucket ship kinow that numerous ves- sels are headeq directly for them, and in a storm, anchored as they Were in the open sea, they may be far from comfortable. The mén in turn aze) allowed liberal leave ashore. There are often serious difficulties in getting coal and provisions to the ships on exposed stations, so that it is nee- essary that they carry sufficient sup- plies to last over stormy periods. “In 1839 the Columbia River light vessel was stranded near Cape Dis- appointment, and as it could not be gotten off into the sea again, it was hauled 700 yards across the land through the woods and launched in tne Columbia River. “The lightships. being - necessarily near the channel ways, are frequently collided with. In January, 1912, a schooner ran into Diamond Shoallight vessel. The master, in his report, de- scribes the damage done and states that ‘the seamen and also thé cook worked manfully all night in trving to save the mainmast’ and that ‘repairs havinz been made, the light having been kept burning as usual, and the ship kept in right position. unless very severe weather sets in the ves- sel wiil stay here until relieved. “The directions of the Superintend- ent of Lights in 1829 to the master of a llght vessel instruct him ‘not to elip or cut the cable or suffer it to be done, in any event. and if the vessel should be likely to founder, to abandon her with his crew.’ ‘Lightships are placed in locations off the coast, where it would be im- precticable or needlesly expensive to build a lighthouse, and they usually rhark the approach to a port or bay or the outer limit of an off-lving danger. | They are also sometimes used in in- side waters. They may be moored in the channel or close to it, and they have the advantage over most ligh houses rectly for them without danger iong as collision with the light ve is avoided, and aiso that they may moved and moored in another position | when change of conditions or neces- sity requires. On the other band, a light vessel is more expensive thouzh this is reduced in recent vears by im- proved vessels and mooring “The first lightship, the Nore was established in England in 17 at the mouth of the Thames. Theé first in this country was stationed in 1820 in Chesapeake Bay, off Willoughby Spit. Sandy Hook, now Ambrose light ves- sel was estoblished in 1823. A light vessel was placed of Cape Hatteras | in 1824 and s driven ashore in 1827, not established again dangerous position until 1897, after unsuccessful attempts had been made to build a lighthouse on Diamond Shoal. “The United States maintalns light vessels on 51 stations, and there are that a vessel may steer di- 0 a number of relief ships o that the regular ships may be brought in for repairs. Some of these positions are | of the greatest importance to mari- ners, a for example, the Nantucket; Shoals lizht ve: , moored 41 miles from land for which moat of the transatiantic vessels steer in ap- proaching America, and the Diamond Shoals light vessel, moored in 30 fath- oms of water 13 miles off Cape Iat- teras and marking the most dangerous locality on the Atlantic coast of the United States. These larger ships are full-powered vessels, capoble of returning to their station, and they each have a crew of 15+ OTHER VIEW POINTS A sapient food sharp says that sugar is put in a salt shake it will surprise pou the amount that will b2 saved.

He ehas announced that Le is efficient, and the world has been | impressed bp the tnstinted arogance with which the announcement has been shoved down our throat. But Time brings forth a great many things. And one of the thin s which it is bringing forth now is the fact that in this efficiency there s far more egotism than there is result.

Sore head is a germ disease. having a period of incubation. a2d a life his- tory somewhat like that of measles or scarlet fever in humahs. After re- covering from an attack the bird is immune. If a hen is exposed to the disease and does not become infected, is because she had the disease when younger. There is a period of cubation of from two to twenty days the ter bird is infected before the abs appear. The length of this peried depends upon the weather and the condition of the bird. The source of infection is in the blood of the sick bird in the soft parts of the scabs, and in the discharge from the ulcers, and possibly from the mucous of the nost: and mouth.

There are many remedies offered from différent sources. As in any contagious disease the affected birds should be isolated and treated in- dividually or killed. Vhile the flock should be given a preventive treat- ment. The scabs or sores should be rubbed with a grease, carbolated vas- elifie is good and after -a- few hours this should be removed and the aff- ected spot treated with a two per cent. solution of creolin of tincture of iodine. A clearifig out of the bowels is always good in any disease with fever, but is is needed early and sel- dom more than once. Epsom salts can be easily given to a fleck by dis- solving in water one-half & teaspoon- ful per bird, and mixing the solution in a mash. There is one flock treat- ment for ehicken pox that has won the approval of many poultry owners: that is, the daily use of about five per cent. of sulphur in the mash. Take nineteen pounds of dry mash and mix with it one pound of powdered eul- phur. Feed this for five days,.then omit two days, and follow this plan for three weeks, No treatment is an excuse for careless attention or keep- ing #wls under unsanitary conditions. —H. D.
