CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING DEC. 2nd, 1822 11,819 OONNECTICUT FORESTS. In the closing week of this manth a matter of much eponomic fmportance to New England is the forestry congress to be held at Boston for the pepedt of this section of the country. It is a sub- Joot that needs all the attention it can ®et and much more than it is getting. New England may have been able to supply its demands for timber at on2 time, but that was a long time ago, and it is far from being able to do so to- day. Something lke three million dol- lars are spemg every year for the freight on lumber brought into gois state. Con- necticut cannot overcome that in a week, and there is bound to be much that it will have to continue to bring in, but there is an excellent opportunity for it to do a great ,deal more than 1t s doing in supplying Connecticut grown timber to those in the state calling for it. This is a problem that faces many gtages. In Neww Englapd it is probable that Maine is the only state which has 2 lumber supply to brag about, and when it is realized that in spite of the new growth and the provisions for re- placement our timber supply is decreas fng at the rate of 20,000,000,000 cubic fect a ypar it is evident that we canpot wait until the supply is gone before proparing for replenishing oir suppiy. The forésts and woodlands - of the couptry may seem large but as tha couptry grows the demands are liks wisg m‘ovin;. and because the dcmana« §re §0 tremendous and still Increasing foo mugh emphasis cannot be placed up-y on the jmportance of producing more forests, There are siates that will be looked to to produce much mgre timber to the gere than Conpecticut, or 3 number of the other New ‘Ensland states, but there is an excellent chance not only fo tarn land which is not being ufilized for other purposes to good use but of thuy mtiliging old farmiand of which practically no use is being madg. The Idea of keeping the forestry problem be- fore the states is bringing to the ques- tion the attention it needs, BOMETHING FOR THE SENATE T0 Do. Not sp many days ago there was ad- vocacy of the changing of the seniority rules in the sepate. It would mean do- Ing away with a practice that has ifs ¥ood points and one of long standing Even though it has its advocates it is probable that there is a greater number In oppogition. But when it comes to the minority of the sengte telling the majority of thc body what it can do and what 1t vems %o, as has been the case in cqumection with the anti-lynching bill, it would am- pear to be time for the upper house of congress to give serious consideration te the ending of such a situation. It is of course gll due to the semate. The pos- sibilities of such a thing happening arte always good, and will continue until the sengte reconsiders an old practice. Nothing is more ridicufous than sec- Ing the tail wag the dog, and yet that Is just what has happened in thrs instance. Whether or not there is a majority in favor of the measure, a majority is willing that there shcuid de disposition of the matter in the sen- ate. THey are agreeable to the bill be- Ing brought to a test vote, quite the ame as any other, but through the tas- tics that haves been followed by the democrafs of the solid south this has been blgcked, and blocked effectively, and all because the rules of the semate permit if. Confronted with the impossibility of opsetting the filibuster, and of prevent- Ing the' enactment of any business at! ®ll throygh the insistence upon the en- Retment “of the Dyer bill, the republi-| cans have yielded. It would be a waste of effort to do mothing but fight the fili- buster gnd st the end of the session fnd 1o had been accomplished ex- tept the blocking of the Dyer bill It is therefore mot with good graee that the republicans yleld. They rec- vgnize the impossible, but 1t is a situa- tion that calls for such treatment of senate rples that i cannot be repeated In the fgture, and this is to apply, of tourse, ot to one but to all partisan Mlorts. It is an enlightening instapce, kowever, ‘of what the r]pmocnu are willing tp do for, and at the order of, mugch the solid south, m ILLANOIS Pfiwl' Thless the people of Mlinods are of the same mind as its governor they are certain to be indignant over his action In pardoping mearly a dozen and a hait of Wwo have been convicted of violation of the anti-sedition law of that state within a few days of the time they had begun to serve their sen- tences. The leader of the men par- doned 1s a man of wealth ‘who has been dewpting his efforts to swch.afairs s that jn which he was involved at the time he wus arrested. His convio- tion and pentence were looked upon as & lemson to those who believed they tould violate the laws of a state wili In the decision of the courts, {aciding the highest in the state of Il- linois, Ggyernor Small takes the /posi- tion that fhe law s unconstitutional. He Hoesn’t it that to be decided by the sourts and he 't acc the yer- Wet of the state’ supreéme “Gours, Mo toes, hoq;var. agres wilh' one supreme glourt jug who dissented from ths (Pt Tesorts to the power and gives tho convicted men their freedom, and virtuslly invites them to return to the practices for which they have been conyicted. The people of Illinois must wonder what a degision of their supreme court sgpounts to, when it hoMs good if it satisfes the governor of the state, but is swept aside when he happens to g@if- fer therewith. The wonder is that they ibink of cirrying stch matters to the courts at all, but instead referring thém immediately to the governor. Governor Small in this instance takes 2s dangerous a position ,as did Cele Blease in South Carolina in his whoie- sale releases of prisorers, inciuding murderers. 1t is placing the judgmen: of one man above that ¢f the majo; of @ court, and if Illinois stgps to think about it it reveals the serious danger of placing the pardoning power in the tapds of one indiwdual. e KEEP WITHIN BOUNDS. In ope yay and another e are aware of the fact that we are getting away from the war period. A .new evi- dence of it is the government report to the effect that the revenues for the year ending ‘With last Jupe were less than those of the preceding year by over a biilion and a third. There is, of cow a reason for this and the commissioner of internal reve- nue states that the reduction is due to the fact that there have been changes made in the tax laws reducing jaxation upder the revenue act of 1921, and because business has experi- enced a shrinkage. In other words the tarpayers are experiencing some cut in taxes which they have long sired and that big volume of war busi- disappearing. We are thos get- < to normalky even though we are yet some distance away from it. Not many will be disposed to think that there has been oo great a reduc- tion in taxation, or that it has come too soon, but with that slump in revenue it must be fully apparent that the real ef- fort mow must be to keep the expendi- tures within it. It was an excellent record which congress made in the mat- er of banishing certain extravagances that had prevailed and outting to the bone whep it came to appropriations. That was a policy of inestimable value. but each slump in revenue only empha- sizes the fact that it must be continued, for it is quite” as necessary that thore should be a curtailment of expen tures as there is that tasation should be reduced. We can cut the amount of tax paid, but if we continue to spend recklessly we simply pile up jndebted- ness which must be met sooner or later. For some time it has been maintained that a large deficit was faced this year unless the garment was cut according to the cloth. Hopes nevertheless are that the deficit can e practically wiped out, even with the reduced revenue, but nothing could be plainer than the fact that it cannot be done if there is to be a period of extrayagance in expendi- tures.” We have a budget now and the thing to do is to stick closely to it. CONGRESSMAN MANN, it is said that Representdtive Mann of Iliinois is going to be missed in the lower branch of con- STE§s it means more than that his seat will be vacant and his manner of grest- ing and characteristics will be mnotige- aple by their absence, for he was ope of the most active members of congress and one who gave close scrutiny (o all legislagion, Much dependence was placed upon Congressman Mann for the discovery of weak or undesirable features in legisla- tive measures. #s & parliamentarian and as one who knew what to do whep puzzling situations argse. He was 2 well posted man, a ready speaker upon a wide range of subjects, showing the result of his work as a student and his concentration upon his legislative activ- ities. He was closely identified with much legislation, took 2 deep interest in the promotion of pure food legisla- tlon and was the author of the bill which has come into nationwide reputa- tion for the prevention of white slave traffic, bebter known as the Mann act. Atter spending as many years as he has in congress, where only three those still ‘in the seryice have served longer, it can be aporeciated what the removal of such an important member| is certain to mean.

But failing this, ordinary shelves will do. This applies to pears, apples, apricots. plums, oranges. Bananas and grapes should be hung, while lemons should be wiped dry apd then hung up in a net. The best iron-stand is a brick. It is better than the usual open stand becaufse it is g non-conductor of heat and consequently an iron will retair its heat longer when stood upon one Remove grease spots from your paper by applying a mixture of pipe clay and water. The mixture shoulc be quite thick and left upon the pa per for twenty-four hours. If th grease marks are of long standing mi the pipeclay with petrol. Do not burp eggshells. Put them into a small bag tie up and place in the copper when boiling white clothes. The clothes will emerge Snowy white, as the lime Contained in the shells has a bleaching effect. ‘When buying cauliflower those with firm white heads. ‘When making meat pies with a bot- tom crust, brush the crust over with beaten egg on the inside. This will prevent the gravy soaking through. J£ it is found difficult to remoye pa- per from rafsins, place the package in the oven a few minutes. The paper comes off like magic and the raisins will fall apart. Salt meat should be put into warm water and brought to the boiling afterwards simmering as in the case of fresh meat. <chopse A SIMPLE CLEANSER Last winter's velour hat, emerging from storage, looks shabby and unat- tractive. But there’s no need to pack it off to the cleaner. Bran will do the work beautifully at home. Remove the hat {rimmingks and brush the surface well to get rid of thé dust. Heat a pie-dish full of bran in a very slow oven, watching and turning carefully so that it does not catch. Leave it till just hot enough to bear your hand in it without dis- comfort. Now take the bran a handful at a time and rub it well all over the hat, discarding cach handful as soon as it shows sighs of soiling. Reheat the bran if'it Cools, and if necessary give the ‘hat’a second cleaning. Beat the bran ‘out with a cane and the hat will look perfectly clean and fresh again. Bran is invaluable in other ‘ways. too. For instance, it will remove dirt from painted and varnished woodwork without damaging the surface. ~ Bran water keeps colored goods from fading when washed. Hands which are spoiled by house- work can be much whitened and im- proved if they are washed regujarly with bran mslmd of ‘soap. KITCH EN GAS BRACKETS Gas brackets lgok very unsightly when’ they get dingy and tarnished, and this happens more usually in the kitcheén ahd ' bathroom, “Where ™ the damp atmosphere acts upon the met- al. Clean the brass with emery cloth and fipally wash with strong foda and water. When quite dry apply a coat of aluminum paipt or white epamel. This is easily kept clean and gives the bracket a much hetter appearance. In- cgndescent purpers shopld always be used in preference to fhe “fish iail” variety. A wire globe will protect the mantle if breakage is feared. DICTATES OF FASHION Paisley and camel’s hair shawl jac- kells, “the fringed edge on the shawl edging the front of the collar, are con- spielious. The combination of green and or- ange velvet and silver is popular for millinery trimming, especially on felt hats. The ‘real lace” bertha is usually among those pre:enl on formal dress occasfors. Hats made of the same material and color g the dress or coat are gen erally worn. ‘Wide lransparent hems of net are noted on the evening dresses. Coat frocks of navy blue twill are enlivened by touches of color which are found alse in panel hnin;s and pipings. The bloused jacquette suit may well be called the season's leader. Brown velour frocks with tiny hip leng cpally of tan pfaidefl fabrics are frequently seen. Tan duvetyn frocks with narrow bands of kolinski make semi-tailored frocks that are quue dressy. Persian s!;awl Jjackets are worn with contrasting “dresses.

CABE OF VELVETS Since therg is in this season such a decided vogue for \,el;'xels a!sefloul art of go ooming lies in frequent fise of the' degt brush.

Brown satin is particularly the rage in all ghades from tan to the shade that is almost black. Golden brown % very much | liked and is much worn with nayy blue and black. NEW IDEA IN LIGHTING In modern houses the ceiling chan- delier, with its numerous lights, is used only in the large reception rqgom or drawing foom, where there is a constant stream of guests and much formal entertaining. For the living room, which needs to be lighted for reading purposes, center table light tdkes the place ot the old-time candles or oil lamp that, level with the human eye, could throw the light oyer the $houlder in the cor- rect way. If one light dges not geem to be enough, other lights can be placed on smaller tables in corpers of the room. When there is a firgplace these lights give a room a peaceful quality that is entirely lacking” with oply a glaring ceiling light. And to the bome is deprived of an open fire by the steam or hot waler heating systems, they are the bast kind of substitute for the cheering glow of burning logs. RUGS WILL NOT SLiP A practical non-skid aftachment bas been designed for rugs which makes them cling to the floor without the necessity of anchoring them with tacks or similar appliances. It is an interliner, consisting’ of "a netlike fab- ric coated with rubber. It is fasten: to the under side of the ru S to the polished floor, making it im: possible to slip. HANDBAGS OF PAISLEY For some of the new handbags and vhnity cases Paisléy laid in small plaits is intereitingly combined with sides of brown crepe de Chine. Bro- caded black silk is also used in com- bination with Paisley, and there are swagger bags of the material that are pew, and that are made with inside frames. Matelasse kilk is made into hu,le puff bags ahd mouynted op fili frames, ‘and quite a few of these gilk are“mounted op marcasite frames as ‘we! READY TO RAINT For the home decprator’'s satisfac- tion, to match color schemeh, it™is now possible to obtain in white plas- ter book ends, candiesticks,” baskets and bri¢-a-brac such as Budd and other oriental heads, which ‘can’ be nfllntefl Jjust buch colors as will match or bring contrast most effectively 19 the room. HEALTH AND BEAUTY Don't read your newspaper betnrg breakfast. Don’t look too hard from a rai way carriage at the near objects as they flash™by. Don't slgep so that the morning sunlight strikes on your fage. Don't use ygur eygs in a poor light. For sleeplessness a suppgr of fresh lettuce leaves, whose juicg contains a powerful sedative, will induce a sound, refreshing sleep. Anpother so- porific Is the onion. which stewed and eaten last thing, answers the double purpose of promoting sleep and cur- ing a chill. For a red nose wash the nose and the skin around it with hot water, holding 'the hot face clothes over if until it is much redder. Then the skin should be rinsed with very cold water or rubbed Wwith a piece of icg or bath- ed with a good astringent, tincture of benzoin will do nicely. Or the nose should be massaged gently from top to tip with the fingers and tapped all over. Frequent spraying with toilet ammonia is another valuable hint. MUCH SLEEP FOR BABY “Every baby, needs twenty hours of sleep a day in its first nth, an not less than sixteen up tolxe twelfth month of its first year. It should sleep alone, not in a cradle, but in a crlb‘ If no crib is available, a clgthes bas ket or a bow of sufficient size is § good substitute. An expensive mat- tress is not necessary. A simple mat. tress made of excelsior covered with a heavy blanket will answer very well. A sufficient quantity of clean bed clothing should be proyided. The room should be darkened and wi ventilated; windows open at top at least six inches, except in coldest weather. All children should take a nap of from one to two hours in the middle of the day until six years old.” TO BLACKEN TAN SHOES Brown leather shoes which have be- come very shabby and stained may be given a new lease of 1lif§ by turn- ing them into black fool . Mix 1 0z of ivory black, the juige of two lemons, and sufficient vinegar to make the ingredients a thin liquid. All mud and dust must be removed from- the shoes which may then be ‘with the mixture.
