Short and to the noint seems to be the agreement whif) has been arvived at between ths representatives of the four big powers at the armament con- ference regarding such mattars of a con- troversial character as may arise con- cerning any Pacific question. It is to he noted that each of the four agrees to Tespect the rights of the others and when any difficulties arise which cannct be settled by diplomacy to call a confer- encs and get down to brass tacks guite the eathe as they have been doing at the conference now in session. The idea of such an agreement is to promote ond maintaln peace. It is not In benalf of aggression or conquest but for the pur- pose of preventing it, and thers Is no provision whereby any natfon is subject to the will of the others or whera the treaty binds them to a military partici- pation for the defense of others. In case 2 nation outside the four should threaten the rights of any of the four in the Pa- cific, and the agreement is one that ap- Ply only to the Pacific. »rovision is made that the four nations shall he fully and freely informed of the facts for the purpose of arriving at an under- standing 2s to the most efficient meas- ures for meeting the situation. Like the naval holiday the agresment would run for a decade, after which any of the countries could terminata it upcn a year's motice. The actien cf the con- ference does not make the agrcoment offective of course. It wiil remain for the respective nations to take action thereen and ratify or reject, There is at the present time a treaty concerning the Pacific betw:wen Great Britain and Japan. It has besn in force since some vears before the war. There would are indications that the former like to terminate it and by provis the new Pacific agreement that ended. 7That military treaty has not been pleasing to this country, even though it has been maintained it offered no threat op danger. but its elimi-| mation” will be highly pleasing to this| government. | The Pacific problems have been mhny | and serlous. They may not all be ad-| justed by this treaty but its ratif will mean the anplication of the id of dealing with matters in accord with facts rather than rushing to the use of | force. If there are fauits in the phras- ing of it let them be ted out but otherwise the country will, it is belleved, favor approval tion | nof THE COAST GUARDS. At various times throughout we hear about the rescues which have been made from shinwrecked vessels, about ships that are salvaged and others that arc given assistance but we get little idea from such reports about the service that s being. rendered through- out the vear by the ever vigilant coast guards. The men and veesels in this rervice are constantly at work patroling their Bixed territory or responding to calls for help and it s a case of go, Whether the distance be long or short, the weather good or bed. Seme idea of the work that is Involved | is indicated by the fact thzt during ‘he year ending with June the coast mnard asssited in one way and another vessels that were valued at over 366,000,000 2 record in the history of the work. There were 2788 Instances whers service was performed. The guards are not econ- fined to rellef and rescue work. They are engaged In the enforcement of the federal laws and in more than 18,009 cases did they Wbard and examine vos- wels in the earrving on of such work. With sach year showing an increased value attachtd to their service because of what is accomplished it is to be re- alized that valuable heip is given through the service of the wireless. Get- ting in touch with stations ar vessels by whips in distress is a different problem than it was some years ago when signals had to be depended upon, but what It means to have an efficient coast guard Is ‘well revealed by the fact that there were 14,000 persons aboard the vessels that were given assistance of one kind or ariother by the cutters of this depart- ment. To those people there must have been a big measure of rellef to know that the government was ready with such assistance, but how much greater thanksgiving there must have been on the part of the 1621 who were rescued from peril by the gwards. Such an agen- ey for the saving of human life, aside fram the great ald that was also ren- dered in behalf of property, should not be deprived of the recognition it de- werves, 5 the yean COBN RAISING, Com is king. It is the leading crop ot the country, according to the last census figures, those for the year 1919. end was valued at over three and a half billlen dollars. Hay and forage didn't come within a billlon of its value, sdtton snd cottonseed wers even less.and .wheat nearly a billion and a hal? behind. i ie i : | ';:F - H] where a decline in the number of m‘ ralsing farms is noted. In New England for instance there are 22,000 less farms raising corn, Connec- cut having 2500 of that number, and Connecticut has the most farms of any of the New England states where corn is raised. Connecticut raises over two millfon bushels of corn but it was grow- ing about a half million less in 1919 than it was ten years previons. In the decrease of farms Connecticut {s suffer- ing in the ‘production of corn and at a time when high freight rates are costing more to bring here from the corn belt. Considering the avilable land, the nearness to Connecticut users who must buy corn and the present day freight rates there would appear to be a chance for the corn raisers. In the ten year period there was an increase in tae amount of corn produced for sale in the statd but considering the production and consumption there is an opportunity for a still greater increase to the advantage of the producer. It may not be possible to raise corn as cheap here as in some other states but it ought to be possible to come near sup- plying our own needs with the right at- tention directed to corn ralsing. END POISON GAS ATTACKS, ‘While other efforts are underway for making war impossible, or to insure the peace of the future by the elimination of conditions that would tend to create it, it is a regrettable stand that is taken by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers in adopting resolution de- manding the continued use of chemicals in warfare. That looks very much like a selfish proposition, without regard for the effects of such a war weapon. It is possible that the mowing down of the rank and file by peison gas is no worse than the dropping of them by gun- fire and army thus destroyed may not prevent such a gruesome sight since there is no mutilatién, but it is to be remembered that it is not possible to ap-“ ply poison gas and have it confined to the ranks of the opposing forces. The use of poison gas means destruction for everything that it reaches, whether it !s the advance guard of an army or the village of non combatants. The use of poison gas would likewise mean the an- nihilation of"a much greater number and the frightful suffering of those who were gassed, but not sufficient to be killed. While the gas makers are demanding that gas should be kept as a war weap- on, it is ‘significant that General Persh- ing in acting for the American advisory committse at the conference recom- mends that all forms ¢f gas warfare ould be abandoned, There can be no question but what the sentiment of the count: will strongly support General Pershing’s view. There has always been strong opposition to the use of poison in war, quite the same as there was to the use of poison gas, and while it may be as fair for oné as the other providéed it is accepted as a legitimate war weap- on public sentiment hasn't as yet got- ten to the point where it will approve tuch a use of chemicals unless driven to it by the acts of others. Th.ough the complete elimination :f poison gas will humanity be the best served and more than the people of thi country will look to the conference io reach such an agreement. DISREGARDING A CONTRACT. To most people a contract is a con- tract and it is understood that the terms | must be carried out as agreed. Now 2nd then there are those who think they snap their fingers at a contract and | ignore the fact that they aré a party to| ene. That some of the garment-making concerns in New York are coming to a realization that they have a contract to live up to is indicated by thé reopening| of their shops and the return to wo:x ' of about 14,000 employes under the| terms of the agreement which runs un- til next sy _Last month the employers, in spite of the contract, gave notice that they were i zoing to put their factorfes on plece| work. They believed that their goods should sell cheaper. They found t and be- :t the only way they could cut could not meet competition teved (b the costs was to return to piecework ané thereby increase production. It resulted in a strike and something more for law- suits were established by the strikers upon grounds simflar to what were fol- lowed in the case of the Danbury hat- ters. This brought 'the employers to a realization of the fact that they had a contract with their employes and that | it was impossible to disregard its terms in the manner undertaken. There was a responsibility upon the part of the gar- making concerns in this instance quite the sams as there was upon thel hatters in the Danbury case. It may be that the manufacturers had a grievance against the amount of pro- duction and a right to believe there should be a greater production but that did not justify them in taking the view that they could disregard a contrac:, even ihough that contract makes clothes cost more. EDITORIAL NOTES. Even though we have prohibition it isn't possible quite yet to close up the farm for inebriates, The man on the corner says: It is a rarity these days to see a person going home without joining the package bri- gade. It looks very much like delayed pay- menst for Germany, but that doesn't mean that Germany will be justified in lying down on its job, Between the close of the football sea- son and the opening of the baseball time will be occupied with basketball or the ever strenuous ping pong. i In urging the decrease of taxes'and an equitable adjustment of the national burden Secretary Mellon will get the! hearty approval of the country. C. W. Morse is of course going to have the berfefit of a two weeks' trip on the ocean which he would not have ob- tained all at once were it not for the government, ‘With building contracts in New York this year amoumting to over a third of 2 Dbillion those backing the St, Lawrende canal project will feel that there are places Where money can be obtained. Up in Dedham, Mass, thers is a so- cfety for the apprehension of horse thieves. Other communities might copy taken| the jdes and.substitute sutos:for horses now that ‘the latter -are so few and far _clothing and in the city homes kept 'SUGGESTIONS FOR 2 THE HOUSEWIFE Cheese sauce is a <eiicious’ addi- tion to cauliflower. A ratherlow temperature is requir- ed for all egg cockery. The water in which you bofled the potatoes will clean your flat silver nicely. ' > If bone-handled knives become dis- colored they should be lightly sand- papered and then polished. Ivory handled knives which have be- come discolored can be nicely cleaned with lemon juice and salt. To have the crust of bread a rich golden brown dampen the top of each lcaf with mild before putting into the over to bake. Before you squeeze the lemon to get the juice, heat it slightly in the oven. It will produte nearly twicé as much juice. 2 Alabaster may be repaired with the white of an egg and quicklime in the proportion of the white of one egg to one teaspoonful of lime. To the usual recipe of apple pie omit the top crust and put on a lay- er of marshmellow; return to oven and Jet brown. This will make a pleasant change. If you would keep the boiled rice very white and keep the kernels sep- arate, put a few drops of lemon juice in the water in which you boil it. To measure butter without soften- ing it:—If half a cup is needed fill a cup half full of water, then add pieces of butter until the cup is full. If a cupful is wanted repeat the process. An always-at-hand method of clean- ing steel is to use a slice of raw pota- to, then polish with ‘a piece of flan- nel. If the steel is rusty use salt wet with hot vinegar, then rub with flan- nel. AVOID ACCIDENTS Poisons should be kept- in special bottles, but often household cleansing materials that are poisonous are kept in any bottle we have bn hand. To prevent any mistake keep a round- headed pin in the cork of every lia- uid that is poisonous, so that even in the dark there 1s little risk of a fa- tal mistake. HALF-GROWN CHILD For a child who has outgrown ba- by's high chair, but net quite ready for a dining chair, screw the knobs known as “door bumpers” into the four Jegs of a common chair. If a little guest comes one will not have to build up the chair seat with the dictionary or other big book. Stain or paint it if desired. OLD STRAW HATS Straw hats can be cleaned and bleached by dissolving' one teaspoon of oxalic acid crystal in half a pint of lukewarm water. Stuff the crown with paper to keep it firm and scrub with this solution, using an old tooth- brush. Rinse in a little of the solu- tion then in clear wdker. Place hat in sun to dry and when it is almost dry press with a warm flatjron, being careful to put paper or cloth over the brim. Iron until the hat is thoroughly dry. HEALTH AND BEAUTY Children are burdened with excessive in too warm rooms. These two things are among the most frequent reasons for their taking cold so easily. ¢ hair which won’t comb nicely, ngy because there's t6o much oil, is better than a mixture of lime water and glycerin, Use 1-2 pint of lime water to 1 ounce of gly- cerin. A little sweet oil scented with oil or bergamot rubbed into the scalp. It loosens the dadruff and helps to retain the pretty glosss This should be used, however, only the night be- fore you intend shampooing. Standing with the hands above the head and stooping to touch the floor with the finger—tips is a splendid exercise for keeping the figure young particularly for keeping the back young | Standing with the hands on the hips and revolving the upper part of the bo- ay -without moving the hips and using the waist as a pivot is splendid for re- ducing flesh on the abdomen and for kecping the waist line young. COMBAT A COLD For children who take cold upon the slightest provocation it is important that they should not wear such heavy cloth- ing that they are in a perspiration much of the time. Every morning the body, particularly the chest and back, should be sponged with ecold water (50 to 60 degrees F); for infants a little higher | temperature (65 to 70 degrees F) may be used. Stand the child in a tub of a little warm water, and a large sponge fill- ed with cold water should be squeezed two or three times over the body. This should be followed by a brisk rubbing with 2 towel, until the skin is red. This may be used at 3 years of age and often at 2 years. THE BABY'S BED For the first two or three months of a baby's life a clothes-baskét. on a stand will do very well for the bed.’ This basket should be furnished with a folded army blanket or taple-felting which fits the bottom of the basket and serves as a mattress. Do not ailow your.| baby to lie on a feather pillow. On top of this mattress should be a rubber square, next a fine sheet, then a quilted pad, then another shéet, mext a pair or wool crib-blankets, then the little spread or a down comfortable. When the baby outgrows this basket-bed a metal one should be provided—one that has bars near enough together so that the little head cannot be caught between them, and one that has at least one side which can be let down, It should be high enough 80 the child cannot climb over the sides and have a good spring mattress. It may be furnished just like the basket- bed until the baby is two years old, when a good hair mattress and a thin pillow may be needed—Pictorial Review. REMOVING PAINT To remove paint of no matter how long standing from cotton, linen, silk or wool, leave the stalned part in kerosene until soft enough to rub out. Twenty~ four hours may be required if the trou- ble is of long standing. 2 DICTATES OF FASHION Irregular necklines are the latest In decolletage, many of these being diage onal in form. Gray velvet and satin gowns wers a feature at the opening of the opera. Fitch is used to collar seal coats and capes. The newest veils are dotted with che- nille. . Valenciennes lace dyed and used in tiny ruffles which sometimes form spi- rals and medallions is used ‘on circular skirts. -Cape back dreses as well as cape back #uits are popular. Vulturs or coq fans are smart and rather newer than ostrich. Earrings and coStume jewelry general- iy are much in vogue in colored gala- lithe and other effects. Metal laces and mental tisues con= WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN tinue to be good for evening. Many tricotine and four-cornered hats are worn. Metal girdles for fur coats and for dresses of all types are on the increase, furcollared céipes have been worn dur- ing the past week. These are generally of one of the pile fabrics, like duvetyn and - biack caracul is the favored pelt for the choker collar though some mole has been used for this purpose. No one length is favored for these sport capes, Another was full length, showing only about an inch of the plaid chosen to accompany the plain colored cape. BUCELES POPULAR To replace the strap noveities which have had something of a day, all sorts of buckies are being shown. One of the most popular at the moment is a nar- Tow crescent placed directly at the front curve of the instep opéning, made of tiny steel or when more elaborate of mar- cassite. There are also combinations of cut stoel and bronze. Our Paris infor- mant goes on to say that vamps ai fairly - slender, with @ verny modified point a compromise between the former | short round vamp and the long: Ameris can shoe. Heels, even on walking pumps are usually the standard French heel. MILLITARY STYLE In the millinery lineup all black hat are sharing honors abdut equally with bright qplomed bits of headgear, and there is no rule at all to govern size. Small medium and large hats are shown the question of “which shall it be” be- ing declded by individual* becorimg- ness. The Spanish note continues strong, and much uncurled plumage is seen In the trimmings. Regular fringes of burnt ostrich extend all around mény hats, half vellin the eyes of the wearer. Hats of felt, bound with a cire ribbon and presed into ridges or folds around the top of the crown are particularly smart. They come in all shades of tan and brown and in black and dark blue. There are two ways 6f frimming them. One is to use ostrich and oné is to use a ctorcarde( bow or band of ribbon. The ribbon( of course, préserves thé tailored effect of the hat. The ostrich makes it into a more éelaborate hat for afternoon dress wear. SEWING IINTS Use a pasteboard pattern in cutting the quilt blocks. It can be made dou- ble and the material put between. the to pieces, thus there is less chance for irregularity, A six-inch rule will be found a most useful article to have in your work bas- ket. For measuring hems too wide for the hemmer, or for othér measurements of six nches or less, it will prove more convenient than a tape measure. Appliqued flowers are used as pockets on milady’s net blouses and dreses. These tiny pockets, in which madame carries her pocket handkerchief, open at one sidé of the apffyue flower, the loose edge being finished with button- hole stitching. The tiny handkerchisf has a hemstitched border in the dominent color of the embroidery of the garment. More women are going in for home made girments this season. It is usually easy to make a little afternoon or éve- ning dress at home and money saved in this way may be put into the tailored suit of frock. In the development of the dress with matching coat, 2 woman may often make the dress and have a good tailor make hér a coat. The bright-colored cotton nets for use right over the window are good and can be fashioned into effective curtains. There aré many different meshes, rang- ing from one that is almost laceltke to oné big one of the fish net variety. STORM DOORS An outside door on the north or w st side of the housé, unless protected by an outside storm door, always makes the room on which it opens uncomforta~ ble in severe weather. You can take your screen door and cover it with two thicknesses of bur- lap tacked on with copper tacks. Hang it the same way as the screén door and it makes a good substitute ‘for a storm door. In spring remove the burlap and the door is ready for summer duty. SHOE POLISH Shoe polish is usually made up of color plus a soluble ofl. So if you drop any on your clothes whilée you are shin- ing your shoes, first take out the ofl with carbon t&Fachloride. If the stain remains it may be bleactied with eau de javelle ot peroxide or cotton and with permaganate of potassium on wool. CRACKS IN FLOORS Make a paste of half a pound of flour three quarts of water and a half-pound of alum; mix thoroughly and bofl; soak newspapers in this paste until the mix- ture is about as thick as putty and force into the eracks with case knife It will harden like papier mache. STYLES FOR CHILDREN Wool jersey cloth is tremendously pop- ular in the lineup of wool fabrics favor- ed. for children’s frocks, and some gopd looking Iittle bloomer models are being shown. The blomers are usually made with a narrow cuff which shows just a trifle below the skirt. Color combinations are popular and pleaging. Tan and brown henna and tan and henna and henna and gray arc frequently seen. The fancy for fabric and color com- binations is a boon to the economically inclined mother of a small daughter who wishes to make over 12st year's dresses or to cut down some of her own clothes and turn them into frocks for the child. Plain and plaid matgrials combine es- peclally well and there is no rule in re- gard to which portion of the frock shoutld be plain and which plaid. CONCERNING WOMEN In three States, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York, and in the Dis- trict of Columbia the white femiales oute numbered the white males in 1920. Miss Francis Stevenson, private ses- retary to David Lloyd George, the Brit- ish premier, is considered one of the brainiest women in England. Raising chickéns covered with down instead of feathers is the specialty ot Mrs. C. F. Gregerson of Oakland, Cai The birds are natives of China. Girl ®tudents &t Harvard University were allowed to purchase football tice kets this year for the first time in the history of the institution. =~ 6rs. Frederlck Dalziel, who has re- cently returncd from a big game hunting expedition in South Africa, is considered the premier American woman huntress. RUST FROM ENIVES To remove rust from knives rub them well with kerosene and then let them lay in the oil a day, When you re- move them rub them with unstacks lime. CLEANING BRASS First remove all stains by rubbing the bras with a flannel dipped in vine- gar. Then ‘polish with leather and dry rottenstane. Or rub the surface of the metal with “rottenstone dampened with sweet oil- Rub off with piece of cotton flannel.

Famous Trials Mrs. Dudley ' No criminal act in 1885 created more excitement in America, as well as in England than the shooting of O'Donovan Rossa, the Inish patriot, in New York on Monday, Feb. 2, 1885, by Mrs. Yesult Dudley. Although the injury was not fatal, yet the prominence of Rossa made the attempt upon his life & matter of con- siderably mora than ordinary importance, The ghooting occurred in freat of a little telegraph office on Chamber street, near Broadway. As Rossa was strolling along talking to Mrs, Dudley she drew from pocket a nickel-plated revolver and Guick as a flash discharged it, the shot taking effect and Rossa falling to the ground. She fired more shots in repid successing at the wounded man. A policeman near by took Mrs. Dudley fo the police station at the city hall, where she gave her name ag stated.that she was born in England 25 years previously. When she was importuned by the police gergeant as to why she had done the deed, she said: “I did it because he is @ mwur- derer. Rossa was removed to the Chamber Street Hospital, where he made the state- ment that he had received a letter on Jan. 31 to the effect that a lady wisned to s~e him who was interested in the Irish cause and desired to assist him. Hae made an appointment with her for the following Monday, the day of the shooting, and sug- gested they stroll to a nearby hotel where they could talk over affairs in a more pri vate manner, Before Rossa knew any- thing of what she had to communicate Mrs. Dudley had shdot him. As will be noticed. therg is much sim- {larity in this tragedy with that of the way Charlotte Corday went about her assassination of Murat. At the time Rossa gave it as his opin- jon that the work was instigated by the British government. Theéré was no toundation whatever for this suspicion. When Mrs. Dudley was interviewed in her céll on the evening of the shooting she expressed\much regret whén infirmel that her bullets were not likely to prove fatal. She stated when she met Rossa s81i¢ asked him whether he was at the bottom of the éxplosfons in England. She claim- ed that he answeréd her in the affirma- tive. Then she claims to hate said to him, “But tbink of the awful wrong you aré doing in killing innocént w-men and chikiren.” To this Rossa is sald to have replied: “What is the death of a few women and children compared to the wrong Ire- lard has suffered at England’s hands?” She said that when she had heard this, she made up heér mind that he was the worst villian alive and determined to kill him. Rossa had a stormy career. He had spent many years in Foglish prisons wo- on the charge of treason and felony. Fol- lowing Dis last release in 1871 he was ord- erei to reside outside the United King- dom for 25 years, he came to America. Later he became editor of the Cmted Irishmen and it was clalmed that he was indirectly implicated in the London dyn- amite conspiracy. Mrs. Dudley- had arrived in New York from England about four months previous to the shooting. She was thoroughly Eng- lish in_ sentiment. and had no doubt brooded over the troubles in her own country until her mind became weakened. On the second day, fcllowing the sh ing, Mrs. Dudley was taken to the tom: where she was arraigned and held for trial. In Bngland - the detective force were put to work to discover as much a:< they could about the past life of tha wo. man. It was learned that she had, 1 several vocasions, while Hving in London, attempted suicide due to a deranged men- tality, chiefly brought about through an unhappy marrage. For a time she was incarcerated in Millbank prison to keep from éarrying out her design. Mrs, Dudley remained in prison un'd June 29, when she was placed on trial. I° the meontime. Rcssa had recovered anc was the first witness to #ppear again her. The trial was a stormy one, reveatedly during his testtmony M Dudley rose to her feet and shoute! “Liar” at him. During one of his state- ments she turned to the jury and shout- ed, u had] better get away from that man; you ean't tell what will happen.” In ancther moment Mrs. gm},l’y ched imploringly, “Won‘t somebody please k‘:gck ?;Iglt’m:m out of the window.” Tha trial was only continued during the first and part of the second day, when Mrs. Dudley was acuittel June 30, -as not being responsible for her actions, and since from a sanatorfum disappeared was remanded to which time she has public view.
