WASHINGTON, July 23.—Registrants under the selective draft law will not be eligible for voluntary enlistment in the regular army or the nationa! guard after their names shall have been posted by socal exemption boards as summoned for examination. Brigadier-General Crowder, provost marshal-general, promulgated this ruling today to make definite the status of men on the registration lists who now may desire to join the regulars or the na- tional guard. Notice to Recruiting Officers. The ruling is supplementary to in- Structions sent to recruiting officers by Adjutant-General McCain as follows: “After a registered person has been called for military service by his local board and directed to appear for phya- ical examination, he ceases to be eligible for voluntary enlistment. “The ruling by Gen. Crowder was nec- essary in order to establish definitely the time when a registered man was to, be considered as falling within this pro- hibition. Gen. Crowder held that posting of the name of a registrant by the local board at its headquarters constituted notification to the registrant that he was called for examination, and thus set the period when he would be no longer elig:- ble for voluntary service. Prior to that time, even though his name may be among those who will be called in the first quota in any district, a registrant may be accepted in the regular service as a volunteer.”’ Draft Check About Complete. Checking the official tally shects of the draft is about complete today, and printing the master sheets, which will guide local exemption boards in sum- moning men for the first increment of 687,000 troops proceeds rapidly. The, sheets probably will start out in the mails late today. Regulation to govern applicaticn of the master list by local exemption boards already have been promulgated and include a method by which any difficulties arising from confusion of serial numbers are to be overcome. A weparate drawing will be held by State authorities to place additiona! registration cards and such other cards as may have come in by mail since July 10 in order as they are drawn. ‘Shey will then be appended to the registra- tion list of their district and be imme- diately affected by the selective draw- ing of last Friday just az though they had been included in the list at that time. pari to Help Boarda, Otticinie of Provost arshal Generai Crowder’s office are preparing today for the great number of inquiries and requests for rulings which they ex- pect from the local boards as sv»n as examinations of the men for the first quotas begin. Probably it will talre several days for the boards to become thoroughly familiar with their work. After that officials expect the examina- tions and exemptions of men of their certification to the higher boards for military duty will proceed rapidly. Within a week after the local boards begin operations the district boards also will be able to begin their work and take up questions of industrial ex. emptions as rapidly as they arise.

WASHINGTON, July 23.—A $350,000,000 crop from vacant lot and home gardens is the way the people of the United States responded to the early spring call for the National Emergency Food Commission. This announce- ment is made by Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the Food Garden Com- mission. ‘‘According to our figures,’’ said Pack, “there are more than three times as many gardens in the United States this summer as compared with a year ago, the estimated gain being 222 per cent. This increase represents a gain of 1L- 750,000 acres, according to the best figures available.

ACTION AGAINS JULIUS $. WALSH Holds Evidence Absolves Banker From Blame in Accounting Suit of Sister-in-Law. STOCK SALE AT Court Holds Evidence of Oral Agreement as to Glass Com- pany Shares Is ‘Binding. The suit of Mrs.. Juha Maffitt Walsh of 43411 Westminster place, and her son, Edward J. Walsh, against Mrs. Walsh's orother-in-law, Juljus S. Walsh, the Mississippi Valley Trust Co. and others for an accounting on stock and divi- dends, aggregating $400,000, was dis- missed by Circuit Judze Garesche today. The Mississippi Glass Cc. stock in controversy was formerly owned by Mrs. Walsh’s husband, the late Edward W. Walsh Jr., who :vas president of th» conipany. After his death in 1991 the company was reorganized, stock of the vid company being exchanged for stock of the new. Mrs. Walsh and her son charged in the suit that the Mississippi Valley Trust Co., administrator of the estate of her husband, and Julius S. Walsh, chair- man of the board 3f the trust company, entered into a conspiracy by which .Jul- ius S. Walsh got 90 shares of his de- ceased brother’s glass company stock. The defense cf Julius S. Walsh was that tne stock was taken over under an oral agreement with his brother, in sat- isfaction of obligations Julius S. Walsh assumed for the glass company. Judge Garesche, in a lengthy opinion, declared it unbelievable that. tn view of the close relations and affection between the brothers, Juliys S. ».alsh could have done as charged. He held that the evi- dence absolved Julius S. Walsh from blame. Two Notes in Evidence. The 9 shares liability was for two notes, one for $31,215.50 and the other for $16,020, given to Julius S. Walsh by Ed- ward Walsh for obligations assumed by the glass company. Edward W. Hum- phreys was a party to this trasaction and testified in corroboration of the oral agreement. Judge Garesche called attention to the testimony of Humphrey as evidence of the existence of the: oral agreemen‘, pointing out also that Humphrey him- self had turned over stock for company Obligations at a cost of $597,312.50 to Humphrey, in addition to his interest in the company which Humphrey surren- dered. Judge Garesche held in substance that the transaction, though cral and never consumed by record, was bona fide and binding, and that he cuuld not bring himself to believe from the testimonv in the case, and while considering «ie business integrity of Juliu sS. Wa'sh that the defendant could be guilty of unlawful appropriation of the _ stock. Free Band Concerts Tonight.

A very local and highly intensive rain and hail storm concentrated its force on the downtown district, beginning at 12:48 this afternoon, while a lunch-hour host was on the streets, in restaurants and in stores. The heaviest of the rain came about 1 o’cloek, accompanied by wind which had a velocity of 40 miles an hour. The rainfall at the Weather Bureau on the Railway Exchange Build- ing was 1.07 inches up to 1:35 o'clock, when the storm downtown was practi- cally over. While the rain, as seen from windows at Broadway and Olive street, had the appearance of a cloudburst, and while big hailstones were alarming window owners, not a drop was falling on King’s highway, and at Olive and Sarah streets there was only a slight sprinkle. At the car barnes at 4400 South Broadway at the same time the rainfall was slight. At the Jefferson Memorial in Forest Park, at the same time, it was said that there was a strong wind, but only a few drops of rain. This applied alsc to the Municipal Open Air Theate2r, in an adjoining part of the park, waere a grand opera performance is schedulel for tonight. The rain extended to tthe north and northwest part of the city; however, and was very heavy in the Fairground Broadway, reports indicated the rain was nearly as severe as it was down- town, but little hail was noticed. The-fe was no rain at Clayton. At the Chain of Rocks, where the Twelfth Engineers Reserve regiment is in camp, there was a heavy rain vf short duration. The engineers are mostly living in houseboats, and no damage to the boats or the officers’ tents was reported. Giass doors in the Centra! District Police Station were broken by glar.- ming, due to the high wind. An injuhiy maae bytelephone from police stations indicated no reports of serious damages from the storm up to 2 o'clock SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON: FAIR AND WARM TONIGHT THE beet Sear re yIRESS.

PETROGRAD, July 23.—The Council of, Soldiers’.and Workmen's Delegates and Peasants of all Russia voted today after ar all-night session to grant the gov- ernment of Premier Kerensky “unlimit- ed powers’’ under the title of ““Govern- ment of National Safety,” for the re- establishment of public order, both at the front and at home. The sweeping New powers were grant- ed to the provisional government in a resolution ‘‘adopted’’ by a combined sit- ting of the executive committees of the Council of Workmen’s and Soldiers’ dele- gates and the Council of Peasants’ dele- gates. The resolution, which was passed by 262 to 57, reads: ‘Recognizing that the country is men- aced by a military debacle on the front established by an anarchy at home, it is resolved: “l. That the country and the revolu- tion are endangered. “2. That the provisional government is proclaimed the government of national safety. “3. That unlimited powers are accorded the government for re-establishing the organization and discipline of the army for a fight to the finish against the ene- mies of public order and for the realiza- tion of the whole program embodied it the governmental program just an- nounced.”’ There are indications that the Work- men’s and Soldiers’ Council, after the events of the past week and all circum- stances connected therewith, are appre- hensive of a counter revolution. The Central Committee has issued a man- ifesto calling local organizations of the revolutionary democracy and army to be ready at any moment to rally round their political centers, namely the councils of the Work- men’s and Soldiers’ Committee. The Wisarming of workmen. includ- ing the so-called Red Guards. is pro- ceeding systematically in the Vagsil- ly Island and Viborg. More than 120% rifles and revolvers and some ma- chine guns have been recovered. The majority of revolvers were obtcined at the Fortress of St. Peter and &t. Paul, where cases arrived from Amér- ica had been broken open. <Accord- ing to the Russika Volia, about a third of the arms stolen since the outbreak have “een accounted for. Several carts of shells were stopped on the banks of the Neva. The mill- tary authorities knew nothing about them. The drivers were arrested and the carts taken to the arsenal. Machine Guna Silence Attack. Fighting which lasted 20 minutes occurred early Saturday when troops were fired on while marching to their quarters along the Palace quay on the River Neva. The shots came from acroes the Neva in the vicinity of ths Bourse. The troops returned the fire. Later machine guns were hurried to the scene and poured a stream of iead across the river, silencing the attack- ers. Several cadets who were aiding the Government forces and firing from the winter palace. are reported to have been wounded. The newspapers announce that Rear Admiral Verderveki, commander of the Baltic fleet, has been arrested for com- municating a secret Government tele- gram to sailors’ committees. tLheatenanat Arrested. Lieut. Dashkevitch and another execu- tive committeeman of the Workmen's and Soldiers’ Council have been arrest- ed. Lieut. Dashkevitch is charged with inciting the Peterhof troops to remove the provisional Government. Three occupants of a motdér car dressed as sailors and soldiers shot at a group of officers and soldiers on the steps of the People’s Palace. Two soldiers were wounded at the first shots from the re- volvers of the assailants. The guard of 150 soldiers rushed from the building ‘and fired on the three men, who at- tempted to escape, but who were lynched by the crowd. Fifteen civilians were wounded in the firing; some seriously. Government Prvclamaticn. The provisional Government- has is- sued a proclamation to the nation, set- ting’ forth the seriousness of the situa- tion, declaring that its first duty is to apply its whole strength against the for- eign foe and in defense of the admin- istration against anarchical and counter- revolutionary attempts, and outlining important reforms throughout the coun- try. The proclamation reads: “Citizens: The fateful hour has struck. The German Emperor’s armies have broken the front of the national revolu- tionary army. This terrible operatipn has been facilitated by the criminal lev- ity and blind fanaticism of some and the treachery of others. At this fateful moment when, taking advantage of the general confusion, the hidden forces of counter revolution can raise their heads, the remodeled provisional Government clearly realizes its heavy responsibilities. it possesses, however, full and firm con- fidence in the strength of the great Rus- sian people and in the rapid recupera- tion of the life politic, now that the con- tagion, which has shaken the national oiganism, has manifested itself and burned itself out in an acute crisis. ‘The Government firmly believes thac the crisis will ‘:ad to recovery, not death. Strong in that belief, the Gov- ernment is ready to act with the en- ergy and resolution the exceptional cir- cumstances demand. The Government regards as its first and capital task the application of its whole strength to the struggle <«ainst the foreic foe and to the defense of the new governmental regime against every anarchical and ccunter revolutionary attempt, without hesitating to take the mest rigorous measures in its power. At the same time the Government reiterates that not a drop of blood of a Russian soldier shal! be shed for any foreign end, as already proclaimed to the whole world." The proclamation adds that, in accord. ance with the-deciaration of May 19, the Government intends to summon the en- tente allies to the ‘conference in August to decide upon a general orientation of the allies’ foreign policy and to co-or- dinate their actions with regard to the application of the principies prociaimed by the Russian revolution. At this con- ference Russia will be represented by representatives of the Mussian Democw- racy. “The Government,” continues the proclamation, “considers it incispenea. ble immediately to proceed with a series of measures putting the principles an- nounced en May _19 into operation and omy for municipalities and Zematvos, based on direct. equal, secret, universes! suffrage, and the extension of this prin- ciple to the entire country, is the Gov- Coatiaued on , troops repulsed all attacks di upon ‘our supporting trenches, which we occupy in its entirety. er Last night's ‘The battle has continued with exz- treme violence in the region of Hurte- bise and Craonne under a bombardment of unheard of intensity.

An authorized statement announces that partial so-ution of the ministerial crisis was reache’ at a ministerial coun- cil held yesterday merninz, and confirms that the principal reason of Prince Iwvotf’s resignation from the preinier- ship was the agrarian policy, on which an irreconcilable difference between the Premier and the Socialist Ministers, especially the Minister of Agric ilture, existed. The statement adds: “It was established that the divergence of opinion as to the advisablity of is. suing a proclamation declaring Russia a republic arose principally from the fact that certain members of the Cabinet be- heved it necessary to publish immediate- ly an edict proclaiming a republic, while the declarations now being drawn up on the subject only represent a preliminary measure with a view to the promulga- tion of the constituent assembly of an act establishing a republic and in no way infringes on the prerogatives of that assembly. “All the remaining Ministers are agreed on this subject and also on the inopportuneness of the present difficult moment, when our front is broken, for raising questions such as whether the Duma or the Council of State should be dissolved, questions which are important from the viewpoint of the Government's activity.’’ The statement confirms the ministerial changes already announced, except that N.

COPENHAGEN, July 3.— A Berlin | dispatch says Emperor William has de- parted for the East front following a | conference with the Parliamentary lead- ,ers Friday evening. | This conference is treated by the Ger- man newspapers received here as an earnest of his determination hereafter to maintain and cultivate closer relations | with Parliament, perhaps as the be- ginning of a new era of common work | of the people and Parliament and the | Government and the Crown, although the simultaneous warning is uttered against attaching any excessive weight , to the meeting. The proceedings took the line of ‘n- formal conversation between the Em- peror and members of the Reichstag, the Emperor, as usual, prescribing the sub- ject for conversation. The Emperor evidentiy aimed to impress his auditors with the great success of the submarine warfare which, according to the Vois- Sische Zeitung, he described as working beyond all expectations and bringing nearer England's sure destruction. Reference to False Prophets. Tne exhaustive details related by the Emperor perhaps may have affected the representatives of the Left, who, when Dr. Michaelis in his Reichstag speech Thursday referred to false propnets who rad done the Fatherland a disservice by setting a definite date for Great Brit- ain’s end, maliciously shouted in chorus ‘“Helfferich,” referring to Dr. Karl Heif- ferich, Vice-Chancellor.

The telegram aa- nounced the inauguration of stern meas- | ures to combat disaffection. ‘We unanimously recognize that the situation demands extreme measures and efforts, for everything must be risked to save the revolution. ‘The Commander-in-chief on the West- ern front, and the Commander of the Second Army today have given orders to fire on deserters and runaways. ‘‘Let the country know the truth. Let it act without mercy. Let it find enough courage to strike those who by their cowardice are destroying Russia and the revolution.”’ Referring to the threatened disaster, the telegram says: “Most military units are in a state of complete disorganization. Their spirit for the offensive has utterly disap- peared. They no longer listen to orders of their leaders and they negleet all ex- hortations of comrades, even replying by threats and shots. Some elements voluntarily evacuate positions without even Waiting for the approach of the enemy. “Cases are on record in which an order given to proceed with all haste to such and such a spot to assist com- rades in distress has been discussed for several hours at meetings and reinforce ment consequently have been delayed several hours. “These troops abandon their positions at the first shots of the enemy.

Rivalry among the boards of different wards is expected to develop, in the speed with which they will ‘finish their work, after they have received official notice of the numbers drawn in iast Iri- day's draft, and of the number of men which each ward is to furnish toward the State’s quota. The boards, under the rules, must al- low as much as 10 days for the appear- ance of the men whom they summon be- fore them. After that 10 days, it ap- pears, they can expedite the work of completing their lists and forwarding their lists to the Provost Marshal-Gen- eral in Washington. Official notice of the number of men required from wach ward will be re- ceived by the ward boards from the office of the Adjutant-General in Jef- ferson City. Until they nave received this notice, and the official list of the numbers drawn in the draft lottery, the ward boards cannot send out their no- tices to men to appear for examination. Each notice will state the time when the man is to appear. Under the regulations, approximately one-third of the quota will be called to appear on the fifth day following the mailing of the notice; one-third on the morning of the sixth day, and one-third on the morning of the seventh day.

By Associated Preas. BRITISH HEADQUARTERS, in France, July 23.—The Canadians carried out a daring and highly successful raid early this morning on German trenches, southeast of Avion. After heavy artil- lery preparation, the raiding party forced its way to the second line of German Gefenses along a front of 70 yards, where it made determined assaults on strongly fortified German dugouts along the Avion-Merincourt railway. Accord- ing to latest reports, most of these po- sitions were rendered untenable. Final details are not yet available, but at least 60 prisoners, including one officer, were brought back by the Canadians, whose casualties were light. This section of the German line is one of the most diffi- cult and dangerous to fight over, for behind the first line trenches are numer- ous brickyards through which it is nec- essary for assaulting troops to force their way. When the British reached the first line trenches the Germans turned a heavy artillery fire ypon them, employing large gas shells. British Kill 102 Turks in Ratd Palestine.

CHICAGO 10-YEAR TRIAL OF SHARING CAR PROFIT FAILS Arrangement Proves Unsat- isfactory to the Companies, the City and the General Public—Unusable Fund of $21,000,000 Is Accumu- lated. IMPROVEMENTS AND EXTENSIONS WAIT Municipal Officials Believe Better Way Would Be to Collect Taxes and Let Companies Use Profits for Betterments. By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. CHICAGO, July 23.—The plan which the City of Chicago shares in the street under net profits of the surface line trial, has to the city, railways, after a 10-years’ proven satisfactory neither the railway companies nor the general public. The proposed partnership agree- ment between the City of St. Louis and. the United Railways Co. is patterned upon the Chicago plan. Experts here, to whom the St. Louis plan was outlined by the Post-Dispatch correspondent, de- clared it had many serious faults. The vice president of a Chicago street railway corporation, who has held high Government offices and knows both the transportation business and politics, said: s‘If the proposed St. Louis ordinance, making yvour Mayor, Comr*‘roller, Presi- dent of the Board of Aldermen and Di- rector of Public Utilities directors of the street railway corporation should be en- acted, every street railway employe and others having connections with the rail- ways should be disqualified, by law, from voting for those elective officials who are to become directors of the com- pany, or, are to have the power of ap- pointing directors of the company or members of the proposed Board of Con- trol. Would Create Political Machine. “Otherwise, all the street railway em- ployes would become parts of a great political machine, which machine would have for its object the control of the nomination and election of your city officials in the interest of the trans- portation company. The ward bosses and not the officials of the company would undert ike to select the motormen and conductors, and othe: employes, not for their efficiency, but to reward them for political service. You would create a political machine that would not stop merely at control of municipal elections, but would seek to extend ifs control to courts and other public bodies which must pass upon questions in which public or private interests con- flict with the interests of the corpora- tion, “] “ully agree with the conclusion of Director Dalrymple of the Glasgow municipally owned street railway lines, who made a study of our transportation and political systems, and declared that neither municipal ownership nor joint municipal and corporation control of public utilities could be successfully con- ducted in this country unless the rail- way employes were disfranchised. Tne Chicago plan became effective in 1907. It has had ten years’ test, and has ten years to run. Several other cities have adopted the profit-sharing feature of the plan. The “settlement ordinances” passed in 13907. granted a %-year extension of franchises to the Chicago surface lines, created a Board of Supervising Engineers to exercise su- pervision over improvements and exten- sions, fixed the Capital value of the Properties at $50,000,000 and permitted an earning of 5 per cent thereon, and fur- ther provided that the net income of the companies should be divided between tae companies and the city—the company’s share being 45 per cent and the city’s Share 55 per cent. Boris for Municipal Ownership. The Chicago settlement was made as a step toward municipal Ownership. At three elections prior to 1907, Chicagu voted for municipal ownership, but lacked authority to issue bonds to pur- chase the railway properties. Since the settlement was adopted a State law was passed to confer power on the city to issue bonds against street railway prop- erties, for their purchase. but this law was held by the Supreme Court to be invalid. A commission of experts made an ap- Praisal of the Chicago surface lines in 907 and found their value to be $37,000,000. But the Council, on a compromise, al lowed a valuation of $50,000,000, thus in- cluding $13,000,000 of water in the origina! Capital value. If Chicago at any future time, takes over the surface lines, it will have to pay $13,000,000 of cash for this $13,000,000 of water, just as St. Louis will have to pay $20,000,000 of cash for $20,000,000 of water if it authorizes a capi- tal value of $60,000,000 for United Rail- Ways, ard at some subsequent time should purchase the properties City Ownership Waning. Not only has Chicago failed to acquire ownership of the surface lines, but its efforts at street railway reform have produced conditions which have made i unpossible for the city to provide ad>- quate transportation facilities for its people. Owing to the fact that all moneys expended for improvements and extensions, plus 10 per cent for broker- age, are added to the capital value of the surface lines, thie Value has jumped from $50,000,000 to $150,000,000 in ten years. Under the profit-sharing arrangement Chicago has accumulated a fund of $2i,- 900,000 toward the purchase of the lines. This fund could aiso be used for sub- ways, if Chicago could get the author- tty te build subways. ee in 1907, could have acquire i! — The blindfolded man at the right is drawing the capsuled numbers from the containers. are makiny records of the numbers as drawn. ‘ { > ‘ _ = Austria-Hungary has no British pris- oners captured in the war, unless it be a few aviators, and with the exception of some sailors and marines taken in the Adriatic, no French combatants. But of Nussian, Servian, Italian, Rumanian, Montenegrin military prisoners, there must be upward of 1,100,000. in one con- centration camp, situated not far from Linz, 100,000 Russians are irhprisoned. They live in comfortable buildings erect- ed in a “‘town" laid out in squares, with cookhouses and other necessary adjuncts. In the center of this “town” rises a church modeled from the conven- tioral orthodox church of the land of the Czar. sideration. + . * Twenty or thirty kilometers away is a camp for Servian war prisoners. Run- ning water is laid on at most of the camps, and buildings are equipped with electric lights. A spectator gets the idea at a glance that the peasants of Russia and Servia lost little beyond liberty through being kept as prisoners in Aus- tria-Hungary. * « . The number of Austro-Hungarian of- ficers taken prisoners by the Russians is Claimed to be seven times as great as the number of Russian officers taken by the Austro-Hungarians. . > . Nobody with any mind can carry on everyday relations with Austrians of the intelligent class without arriving at the belief that Germany and Austria- Hungary are saturated with the theory that they are to form the natural center of the great political) and economic sys- tem, stretching from the North Sea and the Baltic to the Persian Gulf, and con- sequently enveloping Asia Minor, and that this combination is destined to draw in all the states on its fringe. Friedrich Naumann’s book, “Mittel- Europa,” is the gospel that has brought people to the opinion that this chain of allies made by the conflict will at once rise with the ending of the war to a political and mercantile union of world-controlling importance. . * * Looking to America for Trade. Managers of steamship lines, looking out for business following the end of the war, expect practically the ~hole rrovement of cargoes and passengers to be from America to the dual monarchy when peace is declared. The greater part of the first cargoes will be cotton, rubber, copper and other staple materi- als. The Austro-Americana company is keeping its fleet in readiness for in- stant. resumption of business, but the problem is how the company can thrive or. one-way traffic. . * > One of the earliest edicts to be pro- mulgated by Austria-Hungary when the war is over will restrict if not forbid emigration. The prompt upbuilding of Austria-Hungary can be accomplished in no other way—and this must be a condition applying to most belligerent countries. * > * A post-bellum scarcity of manual la- bor is certain to be felt in the dual mon- archy, which will have lost by death millions of men of the laboring class, while more millions will have been de- prived of usefulness through being crip- pled, blinded or diseased as a conse- quence of years of war. Wages will naturally be alluringly high, and the expectation is that thousands of the sons of Austria and Hungary now in the United States will return home after the war. > > - The last Austro-Hungarian war loan— the total of which was not made pub- lic—needs little detailed @xplanation. It would, of course, have been impossible to raise the sum claimed were it not for the assessment—for such it really was—of the profits of the war-rich, of whom there are hundreds in Vienna and Budapest, and the pressure brought to bear on these individuals and their cor- porations to contribute at least a quartéc of their war —— . 900 Newspapers hina It is interesting to know that Vienna birth rate is now but per cent of what it was just prior to the war. . > . More than 9° Austrian and Hungarian newspapers have ceased publication since ghe beginning of the war. Prac- tically all were provincial sheets, print- ed in many tongues. Editors and print- ers had been forced into the army and the cost of paper has coubled or trebied: 7 > + Vienna street lights are now turned off by 9 o'clock In the evening, in the interest of economy, while many are not lighted at all. > * al In Lower Austria the last vintage was very unsatisfactory.

The quality of both has greatly dete- riorated, while the cost has doubled. In the early weeks of the war the Government marine school, the equiva- lent of our Annapolis, was moved from its home on the Adriatic to the moun- tain-hidden lake of St. Wolfgang, in the Salzkammergut. ' a -_ - ‘‘Women to the front!"’ is the indus- trial cry, and they are responding witn the same alacrity that the men are showing in their military duties. One sees women conductors, women ‘‘cab- bies,’"” women teamsters, women ditcen diggers, women mail carriers, women messengers, women bakers, women plumbers, women butchers, women tele- graph linemen, women plowers, women munition workers, women gardeners, women electricians—women everything. In fact, it is the boast that there is not one field of effort formerly consecrated to men that has not been entered by women. How this scheme of labor will be readjusted when the soldiers are re- ‘eased aguin to their commercial labors is a sertous problem. as s _ ” Millons Live on Horseflesh. Horseflesh is today the food of mil lions. Poor people of Austria-Hungary have always consumed much horseflesh, but not half the quantity as at present. The price is half that of beeef or mut- ton, and the article is claimed not be be unwholesome. The Governmen: forces horseflesh shops to plainly ad. vertise their character and to sell no other meat.

At first, Indian meal, bariev and coarse cereals were mixed in the com pound, and probably some pototo flour as well. Now it is a hard, black, evii- tasting substance which tries the stout- est stomachs. + . « Away from the capital nearly every, town has its speciait pregram of food conservation. In certain places mi'k can be had only in meager quan:ities. in Fimue, for example, butter cannot be had at any price, and no individual can buy more than four eggs at a time. Naturally, the cost of all forms of food has risen prodigiously, in many instances from 200 to 300 per cent. t * . Vigorous protests have been addressed to the police because the speed of the heavy motor wagons, now running without rubber tires, has caused much damage.to buildings. In many cases the shaking has caused cornices and window sills to fall and injure passers- by. On two occasions portions of the stucco ornamentation on the front of the American Embassy have fallen to the pavement as a consequence of this heavy traffic. * eo & Nation Is War-Weary. For months now Austria-Hungary hase been war-weary—desperately so—an‘i wants early peace; for the «mpire-king- dom is hungry and fears an extreme of privation before the 1917 crops are har- vested that may border upon starvation. . * * Italy’s grasp appears firmly laid upon a portion of the western border of Haps- burg soil. The monarchy’s domestic situation is not only threatening, but there is no conclusive way in which ‘t can grow better. It can go on fighting, but that is all it can do, and the time will come when it cannot do that. Aus- tria-Hungary can fight longer, it is true; but all it can now fight for is peace. > * - Francis Joseph, Emperor of Austria- Hungary, died at 9 o'clock on Tuesday evening, Nov. 21, 1916, at the palace of Schoenbrunn, where he was born Aue 18, 1830.

DEICKE, General Agent to Chicago and Return TELLS MICHAELIS Socialist Organ Outspoken in Diagnosing State of Mind of German Masses. By CYRIL BROWN A Staff Cerrespondent of the Post- Dispatch an* New York World. (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) STOCKHOLM, July 21, via. London, German people incline toward outspok- en mistrust,’’ is the warning the Berlin Vorwaerts, the German Socialist organ, utters to Dr. Michaelis, the new perial Chancellor. No German div’, with the possible exception of Maxmil- ian Harden, whose “Die Zukunft,"’ has been suppressed, would have dared to diagnose so clearly the state of popular opinion resulting from the recent futile but peaceful political revolution—recent but still fermenting. The chasm, which even now scarcely can be bridged, continues to widen be- tween the opinion of the masses which, constructively, is sound, and that of the elite, who still are fairly well fed. The masses, whose politica! ideas have been sharpened: by cruel food privations, are beginning to be disillusioned regard- ing the submarine war, discern no peace in sight, blame the old system for the hopeless outlook and sense, more or less vaguely, that salvation can come only through democratization. The elite, who have not felt the pangs of hunger, are blind to democracy’s handwriting on the wall, are rallying stubbornly to uphold the old system and are still convinved the submarine will end the war. Further Fight for Democratization. So the psychological condition of the German people is the most vital feature of the political movement. They have emerged from the latest grapple Be- tween the forces of reaction and those of enlightenment. Although the fall of Von Brthmann-Hollweg from the chan- céllorship signalized the temporary tri- umph of reaction, credible information pouring out of Germany proves that the champions of democratization there are so far from being disheartened that they are preparing for a fight to the finish against the autocratic regime. Vorwaerts tells the new Chancelic how he must overcome the mistrust of the masses: ‘“‘Great wisdom is neces- sary, and democratic understanding.” "rh All reports from B-rlin show the teir- per of the Reichstag to be sure that it will not suffer itself to be shelved again, but will continue to strive to influence decisively the destinies of the empire. Vorwaerts says: “The Chancellor recognized the mient of facts when he accepted the peace program. It is-of great significance in German history that, for the first time, we have here an act of will by the rep- resentatives of the people which influ- ences decisively the empire's foreign po! icy. Strong and influential] interests of- fered bitter resistance to the act ef will, yet it came to pass. “In accepting the.peace program there lies for the Government an irresistible compulsion to act according to it. The confidence with which we face comings events, the satisfaction we feel over | what has been already achieved, impel | the masses to energetic, successful | work. The Social Democratic faction in the Reichstag cannot be diminished by temporary checks.”’ The extent to which vails among the German masses is hint- ed at illuminatingly by the Vossische Zeitung. Commenting on the new Chan- cellor’s assurance that the food supply will hold out, that newspaper says: —— pessimism pre- “Thereby he has given strengthening confidence to the masses among whom the pessimists have become popular dur- ing the last weeks.”’ Michaelis’ Course Indicated. The next stage on the way to inevita- ble democratization is foreshadowed by the coming closer co-operation between the Government and the Reichstag. through the inclusion of prominent mem- bers of the Reichstag in the ministry. This is a threadbare compromise worthy of the Cunctator (delayer) Von Beth- mann-Hollweg. It confirms the impres- sion that the new Chancellor will try to follow the middle line of compromise as that of least resistance. However, the Vossiche Zeitung sees no immediate hope for democracy in the Reichstag’s attitude. The democratic Morgen Post is more cheery, saying: “If the big day did not bring us all we hoped for, it brought more than be believed we could expect. Virtually we are in the midst of the parliamentary rupture, and the time when democracy’s authority will be recognized as legiti- mate cannot be far off.’’ Even the pan-German Lokal! Anzeiger says: “It is characteristic of the chang- ing times that the Chancellor consid- ers it necessary to state expressiv he would not suffer the reins of Govern- ment to be taken out of his hands.’’ A further step toward real democrati- zation need not be expected, however, until the fortunes of war or increased food or economic pressure reduces Ger- man morale to a lower level and com- pels the reactionists, in dread of public opinion, to throw a fresh sop to the masses.

To t.e Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Permit me as a practical student of the public utility business down to date to place before your readers a few facts which may help them to a clearer understanding of the city’s pending negotiations with the United Railways No intelligent private investor any longer expects to get a penny more than the fair rental value out of money invested in public utility property under State regulation of capital, rates, service, earnings and ac- counting. Unless private capital already invested in the,.street railway service shall be permit- ted to earn its fair rental value it will be extremely difficult to induce the investment of more private capital in the system, to provide necessary extensions of the service, keeping pace with the growth of the com- mufjty. It is self-evident that the city govern- ment, in any settlement which it may make with, the United Railways, must at least pérMit the company to earn on its fair value @ Tate sufficient, and on terms sufficiently Secure, to attract into the enterprise the miilfons of new private capital which now are;"or soon will be needed to pay for ser- vice.extensions. Tie street railway business has in re- cent. years become the “poor relation” of the public utility group. Except under the mOst favorable terms, with regard to se- Surity of investment in it, that business cannot procure new capital as cheaply as 6 per Gent. With material, labor and other costs in the aggregate more than doubled in 10 years, with city growth constantly length- @fiing the average distance which it must carry passengers for its depreciated nickel, with the percentage of free transfer passen- gérd, constantly increasing, and with each year larger regular and special taxes to pay, the street railways of most American cities are headed toward bankruptcy. Tits is not only true of street railway systems which have at one time or another attempted to pay dividends on watered » but also of those which under State ation have for many years been denied l ty to attempt it. “The proof of this statement is in the fact that throughout the country street railway Syatems have lately been forced to ask per- mibSion to increase their fares, and that a dozen or more of them in the older states have been permitted to do so. It is a ques- mm of only a year or two more, if present idencies continue, when the street rail- Ways of St. Louis and other Western cities must either be relieved of a part of their burdens, or raise fares, or go broke. / Phe safer investment of private capital ye made, the cheaper the money can be OVtatned. St. Louis people can get private apital to provide them with the increased treet railway service they want at the low- St possible rate, by giving its investors the | possitie assurance of its safety. It is Q le that if the St. Louis city govern- mént were to find a way to guarantee a tar yearly 6 per cent return on the fair e-of the property, as the city govern- t of Cleveland has done, the needed new tal might even now be obtained at or e to that rate.’ : A franchise to use public streets for the r railway business no longer contains possibility of profit for the company mining it. The best the company can hope for, under State regulation, is the go- he rate of interest on its capital perman- Btly invested, plus perhaps 1 or 2 per cent B® compensation for the risks of the busi- The franchise is useful in two ways: “€a) It affords a basis of comparative se- Sumty on which new private capital can be tracted into the business for the bare return which is the best such capitel ag expect to earn. “#t) It affords the only possible basis upon which a street railway enterprise can q rates low enough to enable the gen- JOSEPH PULITZER.

HAMSTRUNG FOOD CONTROL. In the food control bill adopted by the Sen-- ate the minimum price of wheat, should the Presi- dent find it necessary or desirable to establish a guaranteed price, is fixed at $2.00. How is it possible for the Senate now to fix vir- tually a price for wheat in the future which will be equitable and judicious in the sense that it will assure the producers a fair profit and protect the public from excessive cost? The price should have been left to the discretion of the President and the Food Control Commis- sion to be based upon conditions at the time the minimum is fixed. That the Senate did the fooi- ish thing of fixing the price was due wholly to politics and to the desire of obstructive Senators to hamper the President. The same spirit prompted the creation of a commission of three members instead of one. This was a stab at Hoover. It may result in the loss of his valuable services in the one field for If it does not drive him out of the service, it may ham- per the food administration. It tends to substitute debate and delay for decision and action. The creation of a committee of Congress on the conduct of the war is an extraneous subject dragged into the bill, just as prohibition is. The former is a repetition of a proven blunder of the Civil War and the other will prove in its sphere to be no less a blunder. It sacrifices the welfare of the country to a fanatical purpose. After three months of debate and delay which have cost the people millions in excessive prices and have endangered the control of the food sup- ply, which is necessary to the winning of the war and the safety of the people, the Senate has passed a bill marred by hampering provisions and containing the seeds of discord. We hope that at least the worst “eatures of the measure will be eliminated in conference so that food control will be put into effect with tne best chances of success. = = * ~~ F- TWELVE WILLFUL MEN. When war is in progress every committee of Con- gress is in a sense a committee on the con- duct of the war. Each house Is a grand committee on the conduct of the war. The special committee contemplated by the Senate in its amendment to the food bill will be like its predecessor in 1861-5, an inquisitorial body of incompetent politicians meddling with military affairs of which they have no knowledge and attempting more or less suc- cessfully to usurp executive functions which do not belong to them. An examination of the vote by which the Senate thus published its lack of faith in the administra- tion cannot fail to be instructive. Four of the twelve ‘‘willful men” who last March defeated the President’s plan with armed ships to assert Amer- ican rights at sea are not now members of the Senate. The other eight—Messrs. Stone, Kirby, Vardaman, La Follette, Gronna, Norris, Cummins and Jones of Washington—all voted to set a watch upon the President and his advisers. In place of the four absentees we now have an equal number of recruits who, in various ways, sometimes by filibustering and sometimes by parti- sanship, have done more to interfere with the con- duct of the war than any committee that they can name will ever be able to undo. We refer to Messrs. Penrose, Reed, Sherman and Smoot, every one of whom voted to establish a bullying espion- age over the executive departments. When it comes to a committee on the conduct of the war, most Americans will prefer the President and his Generals and Admirals to any group of politicians selected at the instance of obstruc- tionists. = = * a ae . WHAT WAS THE JINX? “There will be many more conventions,” Mr. Edison told 500 dealers selling his phonograph, who visited him at his home, “but I expect you boys will remember this one because it is con- temporaneous with the time when we removed the last jinx from the record. We now have all the rebellious elements under. control.’ He cannot mean that all the rebellious elements in nature have been subdued. He must’ mean only all such elements as lent difficulty to some particular task. “Jinx’’ may be only a shop and laboratory term referring to handicaps. From the use of the word “record,” it might be in- ferr.d that the cryptic statement was an assur- ance to the dealers of some new triumph in the perfection of the phonograph. But we all hope that it has a much wider and more important meaning. Until we know just what Mr. Edison was talking about we shall be- lieve that he was indicating in guarded words that a tremendous urgent need of the present time has been met, that a startling advance has been made in the mechanics of war rather than the mechanics of peace. In the meantime it is to be hoped that a state- ment so well calculated to have a corroding ef- fect on Prussian cockiness will have a wide cir- culation in Germany. , PRUSSIA’S FOOLISH DEFIANCB. When,Cnancelior Michaelis, speaking for his imperial masters, defies the Powers that are fight- ing the German alliance, he does so knowing well that the people of Germany are ignorant of the comparative strength of the two sides arrayed against each other in the war. If they realized how overmatched they actually are in the fight, would the German people consent to go on with a struggle that must end in defeat? In population, for example, the figures show that, against the German-Austrian-Turkish al- liance totaling 144,000,000 the British-United States-French-Italian-Japanese - Russian - Portu- guese-Brazilian alliance has a total of 889,000,000 people. If this is a war of peoples against peo- ples, it-will, of course, take some time to exhaust Germany’s 144,000,000. But for how many years, decades or even centuries can 889,000,000 hold out? How many new armies can be drawn from such a vast multitude? : In the matter of wealth, the British empire and United States combined have $318,000,000,000 to draw upon. With the other nations that are aid- ing them, there is a total of $455,000,000,000 out of which to create the wherewithal to go on fight- ing. This, as against a total of $105,000,000,000, the estimated wealth of Germany and Austria- Hungary. With the wealth of Turkey and part of | Roamania added, the German alliance cannot. have over $200,000,000,000 to draw upon. It might be worth while to have authoritative statements along these lines drawn up, for dis- tribution by airplane in the Germanic countries. With all their other troubles, the Germans are not such foois as to throw away their lives and wealth if defeat is certain. = = " —— HAS RUSSIA FORGOTTEN? On Jan. 11, 1917, in a joint response to Presi- dent Wilson, the allied nations stated that their aims in the war, among other things, included “The liberation of the peoples who now lie be- neath the murderous tyranny of the Turks; and the expulsion from Europe of the Ottoman empire, which has proved itself so radically alien to Western civilization.” Has New Russia forgotten this? Do her states- men and leaders realize what it means? . It is true that Russia’s pledge was made by the Romanoff Government, but it was a pledge that ought to be kept, because not to keep it will be to sanction all the atrocities that Turkey, abetted by Prussia, has committed since the war began and is continuing to commit. After her defeat in the Balkan War, Turkey pro- ceeded to exterminate all Greeks and Slavs in the territory she still retained. When the present war started, Turkey stopped slaughtering and de- porting Greeks, because Germany hoped to obtain Greek aid. But the Young Turk Government, which had subscribed to a Constitution guarantee- ing security for all races in Turkey, turned its murderous purposes against the defenseless Ar- menians and has. deported or slaughtered two- thirds of the 2,000,000 people of that race, treat ing the women and children with unspeakable bar- barity. The story of the forced wanderings of these women and children, plundered, tormented and killed by their Turkish guards, can surely not have been forgotten already by the men of Rus- sia who fought to the death against the cruelities of their own Government. ; It is well enough to disavow militaristic and im- perialistic aims in the war. But if the wholesale murder of women and children is to be forgotten, in fostering the doctrines of pacifism, nations that thus close their eyes to the demands of justice will be forever branded. Turkey is even now moving to suppress the American missions, after having deported or slaughtered the native professors and students of those missions. The murderous tyranny of Turk- ish rule makes it a solemn duty for every civ- ilized nation to lend a hand in abolishing that rule in Europe. Ques = = * ~~ - The Russian Government is said to be consid- ering moving the capital to Moscow beaause of the frequent rioting in Petrograd. The same pur- pose could be served by moving Nikolai Lenine and his pro-German followers to Berlin. 9 —____—_—— WHERE DIVORCE STARTS. Solution No. 1,987,753 for the problem of domes- tic infelicity, as advanced by a Denver Judge, has at least the merit of novelty to recommend it above most of the occasional remedies suggested for the evil. Out of the profundity of his experi- ence in divorce cases this learned jurist intimates that most of the trouble starts in the family card game. Like every other worthy invention of genius the Judge’s discovery is founded in simple things that ‘most everybody has noticed without thinking about. It would not be hard to convince any mar- ried man, for instance, that a wife who, in a rub- ber at whist, would trump his king lead—second hand around—shows a want of that compatibility of temperament which is usually esteemed indis- pensable to family tranquillity. Nor is one likely to be content with a wifely penchant for over- playing ‘“‘threes” against a pat hand or a one-card draw in the greatest of American card games, to say nothing of inopportune ‘“highball” bids in pitch or a disposition to hold two queens in “rum- my,” long after the other two have appeared in the discard. At the same time it is impossible to resist the feeling that the Denver lawyer’s conclusions are somewhat hasty and ill-considered. How can such trifles compare with the anguish in the heart of a man who, just as he has poised himself for a drive from the seventeenth.tee, should hear his wife entreating him to observe the handsome new pink sporting sweater worn by the lady look- ing for a ball at the edge of the water hazard? Six hundred college men are training for the American aviation corps, thus giving a new mean- ing to the term “higher education.” = = = _ i se 4 HE VICE OF CHEAPNESS. Now we know what is the trouble with the peo- ple of St. Louis. They hdve been getting their coal too cheap. Frank Farrington, president of the United Mine Workers of Illinois, says so. The Interstate Commerce Commission seems to think so, too. It is doing its best to remove the trouble by increasing the cost. Through its generosity St. Louis now has to pay 85 cents a ton to the Terminal Railway Association for the haul across the river. Farrington’s statement, made to a Springfield (Ill.) newspaper, refers to what he conceives to be the trouble with Illinois, and it is true that the low-cost-of-coal trouble is worse in MDlinois than in St. Louis. It is so because the Public Utilities Commission of Tllinois is not as gener- ous as the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Interstate Commerce Commission wanted to cure the Illinois trouble, in a measure, by allowing the railroads 15 cents a ton more for hauling, but the Utilities Commission suspended the rate for Ili- nois. x But our troubles will soon be over. The Coun- cil of Defense is going to see to it that nobody in this part of the country is troubled any more by getting coal too cheap. To “prevent profiteering’ it has fixed a maximum price of $2.75 to $3.50 a ton, which is far more than coal has ever cost here before. On top of that is the freight. The production cost of the coal, at the pit mouth, in- cluding recent advances in wages and materials, is about $1.55 a ton. With the help of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission and the Council of Defense we will soon be rid of all our low cost troubles. Nobody but the coal men will have any trouble then. Their trouble will be to dispose of their money. od . -— . eaeees i a ee +. ere ete Si , JUST A MINUTE IN WHICH MR. ANTWINE LOOKS AHEAD. re r4 ROBABLY each of us knows personally P someone who is at no pains to hide his sym- pathy with Germany in the war,’’ Mr. Antwine said. ‘*This is of no very great importance now, but it probably will become important if the war goes on and the Germans succeed in sinking some of our troop ships. We are not gods;-but men. The ordinary human passions are only under our skin-, and if they find occasion to assert themselves we shall find that we are no more tender of disloyalty than anyone else. ‘‘What the friends of Germany in this country must realize is that a great majority of us, quite as intelligent as this disloyal minority, and as well able to judge what is best for the world, has its thumbs down on the Kaiser and all his host. The chance that we are, as is oftentimes said, making a mistake; or that we are, as we also frequently hear it said, fighting the battle of England, is not very likely. To ask what we are fighting for, or why we are partici- pating in the troubles of Europe, is a form of dis- loyal sophistry deceiving no one. It is only prefer- ence for the enemy that distorts anyone’s vision in making out what we are fighting for and why we are participating in the troubles of Europe. Let us all get that now. It may be important a little later. ‘*There is a consideration with respect to the war which must be emphasized now and then. That is the great motive behind the German man-killing machine. That motive is to make right with might all the hor- rible things Germany has done. Do we all realize that if Germany wins she will not have to make amends or apologize for any of those terrible crimes against civilization which have arrayed the world against her? It is a fact. If it isn’t a fact, to whom will those amends and apologies have to be made? ‘*Phat is all, I think. Now, who knows anything about the fishing in Bald Knob Branch?’’ an | _ IN SsiIGNns.

To Keep Love You Must Keep the Incence Burner at Work All the Time. eae wl A CORRESPONDENT asks these questions: “Why is love the most perishable commodity in the world? do husbands and wives so soon fall out of love with each other? Why When the average couple get married they are almost idiotically senti- mental, yet in a few years—often in a few months—they seem to cease to sare for each other. They are bored, indifferent, antagonistic, fighting like kiikenny cats instead of billing and cooing like turtle doves as they did on the hinder side of the altar. reason for the change in the temperature of their affection. and wife are just what they were before marriage so far as personal goes; both are good, respectable peop] “What has killed their affection 8580 soon? preservative in which romantic love fresh and sweet after the honeymoon’ ERTAINLY, dear correspondent, there is a way to keep love. Put it in incense. That is a guaran- teed recipe that never fails. Would you keep the fires of affection forever alight in the breast of husband or wife? Feed the flames continually with words of devotion and. adulation. Would you have your own love last as long as life itself? Be sure the voice that murmurs words of praise and af- fection in your ears will thrill you as jong as you have sense to hear. The trouble with most men and wom- en, when they realize that they have won another's heart and have been mar- ried for love, is that they are like a foolish youth who has come into a for- tune. They think that the wealth of af- fection that has been bestowed upon them is inexhaustible, and they draw upon it and draw upon it, and waste it with prodigal hand until by and by they suddenly discover that it is all used up and gone, and there is no more dove left. Cupid does business largely on credit, and it is no trick at all for him to bor- row enough romantic capital to start 4 young couple out in an engagement. Jt is only after marriage that the question of how to make up the deficit resulting from the wear and tear of every-day life and keep the capital stock at par, becomes a vital matter. The only way it can be done is by add- ing continually to the visible supply of love in the firm, and the marvel is that so few people do this. A man will tell a woman before he is married to her that she is the most beautiful, fascinating, intelligent crea- C Yet, so far as the outsider can see, there is no Both husband charm e anxious to do their duty. And is there any known may be canned so that it will keep ov ture on earth, and that he adores her wildly, madly, frantically. And after he ig married to her he never mentions the subject of love again or expresses the slightest admiration for anything she does. When the average woman returns from her bridal tour she lays aside the harp on which she sung her husband's vir- tues before marriage, and smashes the vessel in which she burned incense at his. Then before long she begins to cry ‘ove on faith, as he expects her to take his. Then before long she begins to cry out that love is dead, not realizing that she has starved it to death herself. All that the man hears is a daily Tre- quest for more money and complaints that they can’t have a limousine like the Croesuses, or go to fashionable summer resorts like the Vanasters, or criticisms oO. his lack of energy in not wanting to go to roof gardens when te comes home at night. The reason married couples fall out of love so soon is becanse neither one takes the slightest trouble to keep the other one in love, and the remedy for thig is simplicity itself. It is merely t? keep the incense burner at work. That e:nbalms affection and keeps it eternally fresh and fragrant. 1917, "7, hg. Wheeler Syndicate, | (Copyright, “ en I ou > = ee G.- ~ ‘ 5 | The Cold-Pack Method of Canning at I / PRACTICAL method of caring for the extra vegetables and other foods used each day in the household was explained recently before the Chicago Woman's Club Unit of Patriotic Serv- ice, section of housewifely thrift, by Mrs. Charles Gray, a former teacher in the lowa State -Agricultural College. The method explained follows closely the charts and explanations sent out by the International Harvester Co. “Cold packing simply means,’ ex- plained Mrs. Gray, “the scalding or blanching and cold dipping of all vege- tables, packing them uncooted, and cooking them in the closed jar.” To scald means to dip into boiling water, for three or four minutes, the vegetable to be canned. “If it is asparagus, wash it thorough- ly and then, with the bunch still tied together, dip the bottoms in first, as these are tougher, then the tops later, for a shorter time. Ttake them out and dip quickly in and out of cold water; then pack in cans closely. “By this method the product is kept in better condition; it is far easier, for the hard work is done in the cool of the day and there is no lifting from the ket- tle to the jar as by the old method. “You do not need to get the commer- cial steam cooker, for a large kettle, or can, or pail, or even the wash boiler, will do as well. I use a new garbage can. The one thing necessary is to have the cooker at least three inches deeper than thé tallest jar used. You must have a rack in the bottom upon which to set the jars. You can make false bot- toms for your jars to stand upon, with lath, wire or perforated board or tin. Place this tray on slats, so that the fruft will be about an inch from the bot- tom of the container. “This allows for the heat to get all around the Quit or vegetables. I find that the wiré jar holder, half a dozen for 8 cents, are very handy, for the jar can be so easily liftéd out. I also find that to arrange the jars in assorted sizes is most economical of space. So, also, in arranging the product in the jar, sort and arrange by size. This makes a bet- ter cooked article and a better looking jar. “Tt is unnecessary to use a preserva- ‘tive if you follow these directions: First of all, select sound product. Grade, wash and trim. Scald or bianch, cold-dip quickly, and pack carefully and closely. Add hot water for vegetables; syrup for fruits. Place rubber and cover on jar, but do not seal glass jars tight; it is liable to break them. If using screw- ’ top jars, screw the cover on until nearly tight, then turn back a little. If using vacuum seal jars, put cover on and epring into place; this will let the steam escape; with glass-top jars with wire Shap, put cover in place, the wire over top, and leave the clamp up. “The water should be boiling into which the jars are placed. As no hot water or juice is used with tomatoes, the jars should be placed in hot water before putting into the cooker of boil- ing w#ier. Have water hot, have a good fire wud cook quickly, and be sure to eook thoroughly, or the product will not keep. Cook by the time table. Have bd thing handy in the kitchen to save : _ For all bleaching, use cheese- #o which the fruit or vegetables be placed, then dipped into hot then into cold, place in bowl and bee, ork tn tnt pha adding about 1% tea- exploded by this method. Half a jar will keep as well as a full one. This permits of using up leftovers from meal*. ‘lomeatoes require 20 minutes; berries, apples and small fruits 5 to 4 minutes; greens, 2% minutes to two hours; and sweet corn 4 minutes to three hours, according to the outfit used. “When the product is thoroughly cooked, be careful not to take the jars out in a draft, for fear of breaking them. Examin. the rubbers and see that they are flat down; then screw down tight. ‘“‘When the jars have stood every test, wrap in newspapers and store in a cool, dark place. Quick work from process to process is the secret of good results. There is no reason why large quantities may not be canned at once, by groups of neighbors working together, one pre- paring, another dipping, another cook- ing, another taking out and testing. The children may be organized into canning clubs, the boys and girls into garden clubs, to can and sell all they raise. The cold pack is so simple all may do it. Than are many such clubs already in existence.”’ To retain the color of beets, leave three or four inches of stem and all of the root on while blanching. Blanch in Steam. After blanching, scrape the skin off. Use the golden bantam or other smaill- cob corn to save space. Husk, silk and cut out bad kernels; avoid breaking kernels. Blanch five to eight minutes, plunge in cold dip and pack four in quart Mason jar, alternating tip and butt, for close fitting. Add a teaspoon of salt and one or two inches of water, cook two hours. Greens should be blanched in steam fully 3 minutes to reduce the bulk Blanch rhubarb after Peeling. Cauli- flower, cabbage, and sauerkraut should be soaked in cold salt water three to six hours. 4 Se A New Alarm Clock, | Minus the Alarm N° more hard names will be abbas at the humble alarm clock if the invention of a newly discovered genius comes into ‘general use. For he would do away with the old clatter of the alarm bell and turn a spotlight upon the person to be waked. Instead of having a bell, this inventor proposes to substitute a small spotlight which would connect with the usual alarm mechanism. When the hour ar- rived for the old fashioned clock to set up its jangling, this new one would simply switch on the light. aa ~— How To Overcome Foot Troubles Tf you have tired, burning. aching feet, corns or painful calluses, you know only too well the misery and torture that they bring.

This woman, who saved and slaved for her household, has been held up as the great ideal of the worth- while woman for many a year. And always before us is the husband forever holding up to the wife the great example of his mother, her manage- ment, her sacrifice, etc., etc.—the very man who, if he had to put up with the inconveniences his g.andfather knew, and with the arduous way of doing things as they were done in days gone by, would be the first to rebel. I spent part of the week-end with a friend—Mrs. G. She lives in the country in a wonderful colonial place that she and her husband built. Happiness is the keynote of this home. Every room in the house speaks of contentment, beauty. Everything has been considered with consummate care. In a word, the place is a joy. It is run in the most intelligent man- ner Everything is in its right place, and nothing seems to be forgotten for the welfare of all who come.

For when she began it was not SO easy. She had to do her own house- work, and it took some managerial mz- nouvers to make ends meet. Althougn at that time they did not have much of this world’s goods, there was cour- age, and love and joy in doing. A true helpmate for her husband is this dear little woman, who now is properly-en- joying the goods the gods provide—for she has helped provide. As I sat in the lovely sun parlor and watched her pretty fingers busy with knitting needles, I marveled at her. I could not but reflect that this is the dawn of a new era of housekeeping; when women do not need to grow old to enjoy the best that life can give—that each young housekeeper has it within herself to leave grandmother far be- hind in the matter of getting more out of life. She is the woman who works while she waits—for better things. Therefore success is there all the time. For ex- ample, my gracioys hostess, Mrs. G., was not content with having a beautiful und smoothly regulated home in which to live happy evor after. All her broad acres are not merely to look upon.

T was getting more and more diffi- cult every year to make ends meet I was just as economical as I knew how to be, but every month we ran a little behind. I was obliged to buy plenty of milk and eggs for my two little children, as they were so delicate and the doctor had told me that I must keep them outdoors as much as possible, so I was only able to do my nousework and a little sewing at home. My husband was a bookkeeper in a large wholesale house, with a salary of $20 a. week, and ‘for years we had been hoping for a raise that never came. This was the more éxasperating be- cause we only needed a little extra money to make us very comfortable. Occasionally Oswald was able to get work straightening out accounts in the evenings. This brought a little extra that helped a good deal, but he was always so tired when he came from the office that I hated to have him d it. I thought and thought, ut I could not seem to hit upon anything by. which I could make money until one morning I ran in to inquire about the lady who lived across the hall. I found her mucn better but driven almost crazy by her little boy, 3 years old, who was cross because she had been unable to go out with him for the last three days. When I begged her to let me take him out with my children the -offer was thankfully accepted. I kept him with me all the morning, gave him a simur lunch and his nap at 2 o’clock and « . brought him home just before his fa ther came in to dinner. His mother thanked me many times and said she felt so much better for the quiet al! day and if I would only let her pay me for all my trouble she would not feel under such obligations to me, This gave me the idea I had been searching for so long. Why not make money taking care of the neighbors’ children? There were lots of people who did not keep help who would be glad to have their children taken out [ drew up a scale of charges.

‘PUBLIC LINKS MEN BEAT CLUB RIVAL IN TITLE TOURNEY = Present and Former City Cham- pions Lose in Second Round at Forest Park. STATE CHAMPION’ WINS Municipal Links Titleholder Lynch Takes Deciding Hole After Shower Bath. More exciting golf was injected in- to yesterday’s second round play in the Municipal Golf League cham- pionship tournament in Forest Park than has been seen during any local event in several golfing seasons. The defeat of the man recognized by the initiated ag the city’s best player, the defeat of a former city champion, the “‘arrival’’ of a young player here- tofore practically unknown, two spark- ling matches that took 23 and 19 holes, respectively, to decide, besides three other contests which were determined on the final green, and to top all a one- sided display in a match advertised as a thriller, were a few of the incidents which lend color to the day’s festivities. Walter Kossman yesterday defeated Christian Kenney, champion of the St. Louis District Golf Association, former city and State champion, and also the man named by Charles ‘‘Chick’’ Evans as St. Louis’ best golfer. The score Was one up. Kossman is a former caddy, having carried the bag at the same time as James Manion, present State champion, is another local player who rose from the vaddy hous t Kenney. Former Champion Succumbs. Kdward Limberg, who held the local crown in 1915, was the second repre- sentative of the St. Louis Golf Associa- tion to fall otf before reaching the third bracket of the pairings. He was defeat- ed by Frank Fep, a formidable public course player, but never yet a cham- pion. Limberg lost 3 and 2. The easy sailing of James Manion in defeating Paul Buesse, 6 up and 4, com- pietes the day's surprises, The longest tournament match of the year became a matter of history when John Pep, a brother of Limberg’s ex- punger, defeated M. J. Crichton on the twenty-third green. Crichton had taken a lead on the outgoing journey and dur- ing the early stages on the return, but Pep tied up matters on the home flag and took 23, after four holes had been halved, Crichton is the youth who caused as- tonishment last week with a 73 medal score card, breaking the record for the course. He is a native of Scotiand and there learned the game. His defeat yes- terday camé somewhat as a surprise. Shower Bath Saves Lynch. Frank Lynch, present Municipal cham- pion, probably came as near to losing his title without actually being defeated as any bonafide title holder ever will. He.was even up at 18 and found the go- ing so strenuous that he went into the clubhouse and took a shower before playing the extra hole with L. J. Hamel. The shower evidently was beneficial, as he took the extra play. Géorge Roth, medalist of the Forest Park club tournament in the spring, de- feated Frank Montgomery, 1 up, which was the same margin by which Clarence Wolff survived play with T. L.

Murphy and Hart, former Christian Brothers College football stars, are attending summer school with tite idea of matriculating at St. Louis U. next September. Two of these have been mentioned on All-St. Louis teams in the past and all are strong, capable men. Whether they will be allowed to play “or not depends on the attitude of the athletics board of the uni- versity, which will soon have to de- cide whether eligibility rules of passed seasons are to be retained or dropped. The four-year rule would bar Walter Essman, while the one- year rule would rrevent the others from playing. St. Louis has a game scheduled with Indiana U., which has an- nounced its intention to play fresh- men, this season. St. Louis U. would like the same privilege, but will be governed by the attitude of the Mis- souri Valley Conference whose code it follows, although the institution is not a member of the Valley or- ganization. All of these ords. Walter been selected as collegiate circles, also commented favorably upon He was leader of the team in 19 Murphy is a center.

Hart was the best backfield man on the [team in the two years that he played.

OUBT as to the possibility of university football in the East appears to rest on three points: 1—Lack of Time. 2—Lack of Material. 3—Lack of Money. As to time; it is pointed out that, what with studies and military drill, more aifficult tasks are undertaken in college every season. Schools of today are filled with men who are studying by day, playing football in the afternoon and working at night and leisure moments, earning their way through school. St. Louis U. issued a graduat- ing diploma to a member of Eddie Cochems’ famous team who had a milk-route to cOver every ‘day, to help earn him an education. When the writer attended the Massachusetts Institute of ‘Tech- nology, in the early nineties, It maintained a football team whicu was good enough to win the title in the old New England League, consisting then of Dartmouth. Williams, Bowdoin. Amherst and institutions of that class. The men attended lectures and class2s from 9% o’clocK a. @m until 4:15 p. m. daily, and until 1 p.m. Sat- urday. It was half a mile from the gym to the footlall field, too. Rut they found time, somehow, to put a fair eleven in the field. Time can be found, if the will is there. Moreover, Drop the Freshman Rule. A S to material, there will be ample, numerically, if the freshman and one year rules are dropped for the occasion, The quality of the elevens available will be very little be'ow the reg- ular varsity timber, if this is per- mitted. Practically all of the two lower classes and some from the upper classes will be too young for draft service. As to money—now is the time for those alumni who are sup- posed to have been corruptir~ the young idea with financial temptations, to come out in the open and contribute support that may be needed. Personally, it is probable that football games will be just as well patronized ag formerly. But if thev are not, surely the alurant in this time. can fix'up any littie deficit that may_oceur. With re- trenchment there should be a profit, not a defieit, for the en- richment of the Red Cross. ” - * They’re at It Again. ARDINAL ballplayers are reported to have expressed the view that n expenditure of $40,000 for players made eariy in the season would have Louis. -class itchers, added to the present ofr, nd perhaps one other viayer woul ave made the “Rabbits a flag cer- if such a thing e¢x- linched the pennant for St. tainty. Just as isted! As to the players needed, that is O K, Bo. But you might a” well try to buy a gteat grandfa- ther as to purchase a star base- ball player. The hope of getting one rests either in developing one, or in acquiring him in trade—in which case you have to give up another player equally or more valuable. a * . Bad Time to Sell Stars. ANAGERS are opposed to parting with players of known value, at this time, for various reasons. The principal argument is that few baseball players will be developed during the life of the war, which has throttled the minors. In another vear no bush leagues will be operating if the European strug- gle goes on. It is extremely uan-~- likely that more than half a dozen leagues, outside the majors, will be in existence mext year. With no minor talent being de- veloped, the customary field for recruiting players is lost. an- agers are therefore clinging to talent like i to the tosser urchaser should examine his igure as well as his figures: and should look into his teeth as well ae his history The presumption ite that anr time a balipiayer te pat om the | the students’ hours will be too much occupied for athletics. Yet in West Point they study, drill and play football—and play it well. market by a major league -club there’s a blowhole somewhere about him. : A. L. Has Only One “Find.” HE scarcity of baseball ma- terial can be better illus- trated by looking over the list of ‘finds’ this vear. The American League has only one newcomer who would cause much. excite- ment among owners if wuivers were asked on him. That one is Pitcher Allen Sothoron, the Browns, righthander. There are only five or six other players who might be sought at the waiver price, but most of them have been up before and none of them has been made. The National League is just as bad. Few NEW names are to be found among the season's stares if we except Walton Cruise and others who have been up in the majors before. In fact, it has been estimated that only a dozen men who would command the National League waiver price of $2500, graduated into the majors, Of these you can count the ca- pable men, up for the first time, on the fingers of one hand. That is to say, of new talent injected into the major league world annually, there is not enough to give “ACH team in ONE league ONE new “player worth $2500. Do you wonder why stars are hard to get at ANY price, with this shortage of talent, and war upon us? SPORT + | + BRIEFS Bad Boy Mamaux Suspended. Pitcher Mamaux of the Pittsburg club of the National League has been indefinitely suspended by Manager Bezdek for breaking training rules. It is said that this is his second of- fense for the same cause and he may be out of the game for the rest of the season, Joie Ray Defeated. Joe Higgins of the Irish-American Athletic Club, New York, defeated Joie Ray of the Illinois Athietic Club, Chicago, in a mile race at New York yesterday, in 4 minutes 27 sec- onds.

Cardinal Hitters Total 45 Bases in Last Three Games Rearranged Batting Order Re- Stores Efficiency of Famous Wrecking Crew. PHILADELPHIA, July 22.—That Hue- gins made the correct move when he switched his batting order, last Friday, is the only conclusion that can be reached from a survey of the work of the Knot-Hole Gang in the three games with the Phils. Alexander, who usually toys with the Cards, was the luckiest bird in Philadel- phia to get away with Friday’s game. Rixey and Oeschger lacked Alex's good ‘fortune and crumbled under the vicious attacks of the reorganized Cards. In the three games played since Hug- gins switched the battle line, the Car- dinals have collected 29 hits and 15 runs, an average of approximately 10 hits and > runs per contest. And those 29 hits represent a total of 45 bases. Ten doubles and three triples were made in the three games. On any grounds but Philadelphia's pill-box park more than half of these two-base blows would have gone for three sacks or per- haps the round trip. As long as this kind of slugging con- tinues, Tommy Long will be kept on the bench unless a left-hander opposes the Cards. Tom hasn't hit a lick for the last three weeks. A rest may enable him to regain his batting optic. Smyth a Weak Hitter? ‘‘Red’’ Smyth. who has taken over the left field assignment, doesn’t impress one as a slugger, but he should have little trouble in hitting better than Long has of late. e has a big edge on Tommy as flelder and rung the sacks with more intelligence. Goodwin May Pitch Today. Huggins, with two games already in his book, probably will send his latest recruit, Marvin Goodwin, to the hill this afternoon. The youngster is ready and eager to break in and Hug thinks it advisable to give him a chance on the hill before the Cards reach home. In case Gcodwin does not work today Ames will be the St. Louis boxman. + 7. Watson’s Collapse a Surprise. Mule Watson's sudden departure from the hill in the secohd inning of the final game Saturday, was a big surprise to ail hands. The big Texan had more stuff on the pill than ever before.

NEW YORK, July 23.—Francis ‘Ouimet, the new Western champion golfer, former national and open champion, has been drafted for the army, his number being in the second hundred drawn. This hard luck, or good luck, as Ouimet may look upon it, will give the army a man who will hardly be turned down for physical fault. Oulmet is in excellent form, having gone through a hard siege of training for his renewal of play as emateur. Scores of the most famous ifers and tennis players in Australia, Canada and England have been sent to the fring lines in France or Belgium, to the Dar- danelles, Egypt, Turkey and Palestine.

ReCRUNGLIMIE | M@ARKETS AND FINANCE—SALES AND LATEST QUOTATION AFFECTED BY DRAFT About Usual Number of Men Has Applied for Enlistment Since Drawing. The draft for the national army has had little effect on enlistments for the regular army, national guard and the marine corps. Saturday brought in but few more than the usual number of recruits and only 2 few more than the average number of applications were made this morn- ing. Recrviting will continue in all Lranches of the army until the men drafted in the first quota are notified by their local boards to report for physical examination. Nineteen men were accepted Satur- day at the regular army recruiting office at Third and Olive streets and were sent to Jefferson Barracks. The Marine Corps recruiting office’s re- port for Saturday shows that recruit- ing was still at the average of 15 a day. Recruiting for the First Regiment was hindered by the carnival which tre Regiment gave Saturday afternoon. The office was closed after 12 o'clock. This morning about 15 men were waiting when the office opened. The usual num- ber for the First is 2 recruits a day. Twenty-four men were eccepted for the Fifth Regiment, but all reports are not yet in and no estimate could be made of what the total would be. There was no usual rush of applicants this morn- The Missouri Field Artillery gained five men Saturday and only the usual number of applications were made this morning. At 11 a. m. no applicant had been accepted. Navy enlistments have fallen off in the last week. Many of the drafted men, especially those whose numbers are near the nead of the list, are eager to learn whether they will be assigned to the regular army or the national guard, instead of being placed in the national army. It has been announced that men needed to fill up the regular army and the national guard will be taken from the first men actually drafted. a00 APPLY TO SERVE INTHE HOME CUARD Citizens’ Mass Meeting Wednes- day Morning at Mayor’s Of- fice to Plan Co-Operation in Recruiting. More than 300 applications for mem bership in the St. Louis Home Guarl Regiment have been received .by Sec- retary Lovelace of the iccal committee. These applicants will be passed upon as to physical requirements as soon Aas the medical draft has been fully orgauized. The Home Guard Committee wlil mee: late this afternoon to complete this portion of tlxe organization, and pro- vide for the examinaticn of the large number of applicants, with a bat*tabhion alreudy organized at Webster Groves, a company at Ferguson, one at Car >nde- iet, one at Richmond Heights and two at Kirkwood. These will make sufficient number; in applicants for 10 companies, b:it it is thought that perhaps 2/5 per cent of these will fail to fulfill the require- ments. A citizens’ mass meeting will be held Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock in the Mayor's office, at the call of Richard S. Hawes, chairman of the St. Louis Home Guard Committee, to offer means of co- operating in recruiting. More than 350 have been asked to attend. Men of affairs representing all lines of activity are freely enlisting their services in the Home Guard. endee , itchell Motor see eeeee ational Motor Te ei. eerless eeeeeeeeere pete ok . ee u ° Bricer com Stromberg United Motors Mark C.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 23.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review, today says: “The sharp decline in prices on the Stock Exchange today was the result of the increasingly apprehensive view taken by the financial community of the Rus- sian situation. Fresh outbursts of in- subordination and mutiny among the armies and at the capital, and the con sequent reverses on various parts of the front, gave to the outlook a much gloom- ier hue than that of a few weeks ago, when the provisional Government seemed to be strengthening its influence and authority, and the military forces were making rapid progress against an unprepared and surprised enemy. “Exchange moved heavily against Pet- rograd, remittances by cable being quoted at 21 cents to the ruble, a new low record, compared with 21.80 on Sat- urday and 23.20 cents, last week’s highest price. Russian 5% per cent bonds sold on the curb as low as 75%, against 77% at the close of the week. The Effect on Germany. “Not the least discouraging aspect of the situation, as viewed on Wall street, was the effect which the disturbances in the Russia might have in Germany. Already, it was noted that the German armies, instead of holding off and await- ing the results of an agitation for peace, were vigorously pursuing the offensive, though their forward movement may have been only the continuation of at- tacks begun before the fresh disorders appeured among their opponents. “What encouragement and prestige might be given to the German militarv party by a series of successes on the astern front, was only a matter of surmise. There remained, of course, the possibility that the present disturbances in Russia might be calmed or quelled promptly, as those that have gone be- fore and that the armies, in which emotion appears so largely to have sup- planted discipline, might yet be rallied effectively and promptly behind their leaders.

Sentiment also was bull- ishly influenced by the Senate’s passing of the food bill, carrying a minimum of $2 for wheat on the farms. With wheat at $2 on the farm and cash corn $2.16, traders think the December option at $1.16 is decidedly cheap, al- though the maximum price limit on the option is $1.28. The market closed firm at slight gains compared with Satur- day's finish. Statistics generally were bullish, and what little corn there is remaining on the farms is not finding its way to market in sufficient quantity to reduce the price. Primary receipts were licht. Wheat futures were quiet here, but sharply higher in Chicago, owing to the food bill’s minimum of $2 to farmers. Crop reports were mixed, with some damage reported from the spring wheat territory. Conditions also are uncer- tain in Canada. The market closed showing wide gains. ° Oats were in-demand, owing to their relative cheapness compared with corn and wheat. Receipts were light for this period of the year. 2 Wecember corn opened %c higher, at $1.17, lost to $1.16%, then rose to $1.17%@ 1.17%.

The Liverpool wheat market was steady, American strength partly offset by continued, free world’s shipments and quieter consumption. Canada is ship- ping liberal. Corn very firm, with good demand, world’s shipments light and floating quantity is poor and most of the good grade has already been shipped. american holders are reserved. Oats steady, but dull, shipments lighter and there is a better demand from the Con- tinent. American markets firm and this imparted some confidence in holders, and spot offers were lighter.

It will he good weather soon and we all shall have plenty to eat; then we will give some fine din- ners and not invite Reddy Fox or even speak to him.” And that was just what happened to Reddy Fox. All the wood folk stopped speaking to him and no one would let him in when he called to see them, and all summer he sat alone on his steps while the rest of the animals held dinner parties and had a good Ume. “I guess after all it does not pay to be tricky with your friends,” said Reddy one night. “I wish I had not eaten all Mr. Bear’s good things this spring. I would rather have gone hungry than to have lost all my friends.” (Copyright. 1917, by the McClure tiated The Prune Club. ae ELL people, I've got a new one for you this morning,’ said the thin boarder, taking his place at the breakfast table. “Shoot it!” came from the chap with the red necktie. “When it needs filling,” suggested the tooth?’’ “When is fat blond.”’ “That's not the answer,”’ thin. boarder. “When it’s bad,’’ typewriter. “Not right.” “When the owner knows its holier,” put in the anemic bookkeeper. “a “Well, we give it up,"’ came the chorus. “Why, when you have to walk the floor with it all night.”’ him and he would take a piece of pie in his hand to eat as he went along, for he was pretty hungry, not having eaten anything all winter. Off they started, but Reddy Fox went only a short distance and then he hid behind a tree until Mr. Bear wus out of sight. Back to Mr. Bear's house went Reddy Fox and into the pantry, and it didn’t take him -long to eat all the good things he found on the shelves—that is, all his stomach could hold; then he took a basket and filled that full of Mr. Bears preserves and cake and pies and off he went, leaving Mr. Bear’s pantry quite bare. “I'll leave the pig for Mr. Bear,” he said. “I don’t care for pigs anyway ‘unless I cannot get anything el#e, and I couldn’t this morning.” By and by Mr. Bear returned, and He stopped and smiled and then he trotted off to Mr. Bear's house deep in the woods. ° He listened at the door, but all was still; then he went into the pantry window and carefully tried to lift the sash. It was fastened on the inside and Reddy smiled very broadly. ‘‘He has a full pantry or it would not be so securely locked,’ he said. Reddy Fox went to a little pool and took a long drink of water to brace himself for his run,’and then over the hill he went to the farm, and when he came back he had a nice fat pig over his shoulder. In front of Mr. Bear's house he stopped and listened at the door, yet he could hear Mr. Bear grunting and stretching as if he were awaxing from his long winter nap. “Mr. Bear! Mr. Bear!" called Reddy Fox, prove——"’ but Silas had gone. The next morning as they watched the bank porter clean’ up the reminders of the mind reader’s tent, Asa Poole spoke to Silas, ‘Mr. “Warner, I heard how that mind reader worked. He gave the sucker a pad and had him write with such a hard pencil that it left an impression on the sheet of paper under- neath the one on which the writing waa done. He read this when he got back the pad. Pretty simple, wasn’t it? Lots of ways to catch a sucker, ain't there?’ But Asa got no answer. a baby like an replied the ventured the little OMETIMES this is a vexing problem | for the traveler. But it is an easy one for us.

Then Reddy went to old Mr. Coen's house, but he was told he had to de- pend on his son Tom Coon for his food, and when Tom saw Reddy he knew what he wanted, and told Reddy Fox that he had come to the wrong place to get his breakfast. “Get up early as I do and get it yourself,” said Tom Coon, giving the door a bang right in the face of Red- dy Fox. “He is a very bad-mannered fellow,” said Reddy Fox, as he trotted away. “He is a sly, greedy fellow,” said Tom Coon to his father, *‘but he can’t work any of his tricks on me. Let him go over the hill to the farm as ! have to.”’ “Oh, this is a hard, cold wood to live in.” said Reddy Fox. “I wish some one would give a dinner and invite me to dine.”’ ; u ; but Billy had the toothache and ) | Reddy Fox had an idea right then. | Mr. Bear opened the door and when he saw the fat pig he smiled. “How do you feel after your nap?’ asked Reddy, and without waiting for a reply, he said: “All the wood folk want to hawe a real sociable time this spring, and each one is going to give a dinner; we have been waiting for you to wake up. I am going to give one tonight, and Mr. Coon tomorrow night and Mr. ’'Possum the night after and Mr. Squirrel the night after that and Jack Rabbit the’ night after that and'’—— “Where do I come in?” asked Mr. Bear. “I want to give a dinner. but if I wait until the night after all the others have one all the good things in my pantry will spoil: they will not keep a day aftr I get up In the spring.” “Oh, well,” said Reddy Fox, “if you feel that way about it, why not give one right off. I'll put this pig in your cellar and you take the left path and I'll take the right one through the woods, and in a short time we will have all the wood folk here.” Mr. Bear said; that would just suit with him all the animals-that lived along the path at the left; they wajted and waited for Reddy Fox and the animals along the path at the right through the woods, but no one came. “We can set the table anyway,” said Mr. Bear at last, but when he saw the empty shelves in the pantry he ran back to the waiting guests with a loud growl. “You might have known Reddy Fox was up to something,” said Tom Coon. “You will never see him again unless you go to his house when he does not expect you, and for some timé | he will be on the lookout for you.” “There isn't a thing to eat in the woods; it is too early for the berries and the rest of us have eaten all our winter supply,” sdid Mr. Squtrrel. Then Mr. Bear thought of the pig in the cellar. “We can have roast pig.” he said, Funning down the cel- lar steps. But the pig had rooted tts way out and run off home, and Mr. Bear came tack growling very angrily. “There is but one way to get even | Syndicate. New York City.
