His actlvities have been observed at short distance. It was possible for General Graves in charge of the American army in Siberia to get first hand information concerning his methods and it was during that time that our forces experienced much trouble him. Thus it becomes easy, even though there has been no hearing on the matter to establish the facts in the case, to be- lieve that Semenoff was responsible as claimed in the suit for the half million dollars worth of goods that were seized from Americans in Siberia. Whether or not the claims. are substan- tated it means that there is a tremen- dous amount of explaining that must be done by the war chief if he is going to clear himself of the charge, and he can- not expect to make a very successful ap- peal for funds for further operations un- less he can present a good record and get the confidence of those who are ex- pected to give. If he is one of the kind that smiles when everything goes dead wrong perhaps he will yet accomplish his purpose and go back to annoy the bol- sheviki. EARLY SETTLEMENT DESIRED. From all indications it is going to be a question’ of supply that is going to de- termine the length of the coal strike in the hituminous fields-at least. What the conference between the hard coal miners and operators will result in is problem- atical. What ought to be dope when it is declared that if the miners’ demands are granted the price of coal wWill be boosted three dollars a ton it is not dif- ficult for more people to decide for them- selves. As long as there is an adequate supply of coal without a higher price, it is per- for the consumer to Worry n interested spectator he deplores the failure to take steps to reach a set- tlement that is being displayed in the soft coal territory. When the operators laim that they are unwilling to enter in- to @ conference because of the legal ac- that they will be again laying themselv liable, it seems to be pretty well dis- counted by the assertion of the attorney general of the United States that there need be no fear of prosecution. But what Is still better than having the miners and the operators get together is for them to bring their difficulties be- operators and the public and have the ad-| justment determined not as those gwho are directly interested sanction but as those who directly and indirectly inter- ested believe is justified in mocord with the facts that Instead any increase in the price| of coal, there is a general feeling that there should be a reduction, that defla- tion should take place in that industry s well as in others and in the cost of living, and it cannot fail to be appre-| clated by the country that the soomer 7 | move for a just determination of the ds-| pute is made the quicker will there be an| cts which are bound to | be felt by all concerned through a long of EX-EMPRESS ZITA.

Chopped prunes may be supstituted for raisins. Whipped cream will remain stiff if one teaspoonful of dissolved gelatin is whipped into one-half pint of whip- ping cream. It is said that a half slice of white bread put in with the doughnuts will keep them light and soft. Cut strips from the heel of an old rubber, the corrugated heels, nail them to the legs of the stepladder and it may save a fall. Left-over stewed tomato makes oth- er left-overs palatable. Made into a sweet sauce with a little onion and white sauce added, it is good over casserole dishes, patides. fish or rico croquettes, hash, hamburger or mock dhops, A baking powder cgn makes a good utensil with which to dice cold boiled potatoes. Left-over canned pineapple will re- tain its fresh taste for another meal if put back immediately into an ajr- tight glass jar. Ieft in an open dish pineapple acquires a peculiar stale taste. The juice from canned peaches or apricots makes a delicious sauce for cornstarch or blancmange pudding. Good salad combinations are pineap- ple, bananas and nuts, apples, celery and nuts, cheese, dates and lettuce, cabbag d celery, beets carrots and potatees, lettuce and -cress and or- anges nuts and cocoanut. Use as little flour on the board as possible while kneading bread. Such a course eliminates the possibility of spoiling tha dough by getting too much flour into it. Leave the top crust off of your or- dina apple pie. When it is baked take it out of the oven, put a layer of marshmallows over the top and re- turn it to the oven to brown. MAKE FOWL TENDER Wrap the fowl in brown paper be- fore it is put .nto the oven and al- low it to cook in this envelope until it is' nearly done. The paper retains the juices, allows the fowl to cook slowly and evenly and grow tender before the outside is browned. At the last the paper is removed long enough to brown the outside. It is said that young mutton can be made as tender as lamb in the same way and roast veal may be thorough- ly cooked without that hard outer crust. ECONOMY Don't throw away the old strip of linoleum.

MOMENT TO RELAX During the busy hours of the day CWOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE THREE-PIECE COSTUME Unusually smart three-piece cos- tumes in rust, gray, or navy, belted and sometimes buttoned to the top of a high collar, show prilliant blouses. Often for daytime, simple sers crepe de chine frocks are trimmed with gay émbroideries or vivid gal loons.

Black has not been dethroned, but, in nearly every it is made e, |“cheerful” by adding some vivid col-' or. i et Sitioned DICTATES OF FASHION Georgette and crepe dresses are trimmed with touches of monkey fur. Skirts are made from fringed hand- woven scarfs with open mesh in white ground with black stripes or stripes in brilliant coloring. Frocks of checked silk gingham are combined with silk or organdie trim- med sashes. i Many sashes are worn, some of bro- caded ribbon, others of plain ribbon or silk, finished with tassels. ‘White linen frocks have been intro- duced for mourning with fagoting and hand work of black silk, the neck and |sleeves bound with a narrow binding of black silk. Scarfs to match fringed skirts are worn with a plain fine wool sweater in one of the colors seen in the scarfs. The latest white suits for spring wear are of Poiret twill with a short flaring jacket embroidered in green, blue or red, caught at the neck with a clasp in bakelite. Sports hats with white wool em- broidery are seen; other models are of -straw braid and wool, trimmed with white woolen snow balls. Sandals of red leather and black sat- in have four fancy straps, and san- dals of lizard-green kid have peweled button ornaments. A distinctly Chinese tailleur hat is of black moire, co red with red match- sticks, and a black lace veil is drap- ed over it. A youthful style of turban is made of burnt sand-coldred wide-meshed {net, covered with cutout flowers and petals of different shaded leather | stitched on with hand embroidery. The sleeveless tweed coat ! sleeved frock is numbered among the most popular sellers thus far, wita the single exception perhaps of the three-piece cape costume. The three-piece tweed costume does not only embrace frock and jacket, or knicker, packet and skirt, but also the skirt, jacket and full length cape —s0 that either of the latter two may be worn. Gingham serves for the waist and part of sieeves on some effective cape costumes which have the skirt and seven-eighths length flare sleeve of tweed button on to this waist—the cape being entirely of the cloth. CLEANING HINTS To clean a white felt hat take the soft inner part of a stale loaf of white bread and rub all over the hat. An easy way to remove brown stains from top of set bowl in bathroom is to cover spots with lye, then rub hard with a wet brush. Do not allow the lye to get on the hands, as it is strong liable to burn. If you would clean white paint take ordinary baking soda and spread it over the paint which has previously been gone over with a damp cloth. Let the soda remain on a few minutes and then wash off. Do not rub the paint hard. Brown leather bags may be cleaned by rubbing on a thick lather of pure white soap. Apply it with a sponge, | rub iard, let it remain on a few min- utes, then wipe dry with flannel cloth and polish with vasellne; rub this in with bare hand; rub hard; don't use t00 much and wipe off well. When ivory ornaments became yel- low or dusky wash them well in soap and water with a small brush to clean the carvings, and then place them while wet in sunshine. Wet them with soapy water for two or three days, several times a day, still keeping them in sunshine, then wash them again.

MENDING PLASTERING If there is a small hole in the plas- tering, paste a number of strips of adhesive tape over it and then cov- er with wali paper, being sure to ‘match the pattern. RECIPES Apple Candy—Cook an apple in a little water until tender. Mash and drain through a jelly bag. Cook juice until it becomes as thick as a heayy syrup. Pour in pans and let it finish drying out. Then roll up the sheet and slice in circles or cut out without rolling up in fancy shapes. If thick- ened syrup is poured in small glasses it may be turned out after it is set and sliced in lozenge shapes and rolled up in finely chopped cocoanut. The syrup when concentrated, may be combined with the pulp and then duried, but product is not as attrac- ve. Grapefruit Pie—Line a deep glass! pie-plate with rich pastry, prick over the bottom and sides with a fork. Bake in a hot oven until of a delicate brown color.

Pile roughtly over top of filling and return to a moderfite oven to cook and brown the meringue. FAMOUS MEN. MICHAEL ANGELOQ A er life than was that experienc- ed bmhelargdo it would bemh:rd ffl find in the history of the great art. Ex- cept for four years, between the ages of fifteen asxd elghteen, his days were sad. stern and lonely. He was born on the 6th of March, in 1475. His genius for sculp- turing and painting was shown at an early age, but much of his greatest work was acomplished when he was fifly. In 1534 he was commissioned by Pope Paul 1T to carry out an idea which had {been originated by one of the latter's pre- decessors—the completion of the decora- tion of the interior of the Sistine Chapel by painting a fresco on the wall above the alar. He spent eight years in pre- paring cartoons and painting this vast space, and on Christmas Day, 1541, the fresco representing “The Judgment Day” was uncovered to the public gaze, and all ‘Rome flocked to see this new wonder, The success was so marked that he was appointed chief architect to the Pope. All of the glorious Italian art of that smeriod may be said to start with this appoint- ment. The greatest sadness in the artist's life appears to have been the loss of his faithful servant, Urbino. Regarding his death the artist wrote: “I have kept him seven and twenty years, and always found him sure and faithful. I had made him rich and now that I had counted on his being a prop to my old age, he is taken strated.

He had failen iil on the 12th of February, 1564, but had struggled bravely against pain and weakness. and only a few days before his death had at- tempted to mount his horse. He was well cared for during these last days by a few devoted friends. After three days of mortal weakness his spirit passed away about 5 o'clock in the aft- th of February.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE Countess Georgiana Markievicz, who is on her way to America ¢o lecture in behair of an Irish republic, has been the leading female figure of the Sinn Fein movement. She was the first woman to be elected 1o the British House of Commons, though she never took her seat. The countess. who came by her title through marriage to Count Carimer, Markievicz, « Polish ar- tist and playwright. first came prominent- ly before the public at the time of the Easter rebellion in Dublin, when she com- manded one of the rebel parties. For the part she took on that occasion she was sentenced, to death, but the sentence was afterward communted to one of penal servitude for life. She was subsequently pardoned, however, and released by the gavernment. She was rearrested in May, 1918, released early in 1919, again arrest- ed in September, 1920, and remained in- terned in Mountjoy prison, Dublin, until July of last year.

For a slightly more elab- orate negligee chiffon is also used. combining contrasting shades and draped with ruffles of varying widths.
