NTo. 41\nSOUTH VANCOUVER, B.C., CANADA, SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 21, \\')\\4\nPrice 5 cents\nPatriotic Address by Mr. Ralph Smith, Ex-M.P., Setting\nForth Principles of Liberalism, Stirs People of South Hill\n''Imperialism and Democracy\" is Theme of\nEloquent Speech\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdFormer Parliamentarian\nWants More Lloyd-George and Less\nMackenzie and Mann in British Columbia\nFor an hour without a note Mr.\nRalph Smith held a large Liberal\naudience spellbound while he discoursed on the subject of \"Imperialism and Democracy.\" The chair was\noccupied by Mr. Donald Burgess, who\nintroduced Mr. Smith, who received a\nplattering reception. Mr. Smith began by paying the Liberals of South\nHill a compliment of being able as a\nyoung association with the political\nsword of the McBride Government\nhanging over their head to gather\nteegether such a large number of intelligent citizens publicly showing\ntheir readiness to support the Liberal party and its principles.\nThese are the testing times, said\nMr. Smith ,when there is nothing to\ngain personally, when the majority-\nlike to be on the side of power. Men\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdcome nut and show their colors for\nthe Liberal principles. Thc political\nprinciples of people living under responsible government can be divided\ninto two classes, the aristocracy and\nthe masses. Tory imperialism and\nLiberal democracy. It is true that\nthe democratic forces are generally\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffddivided, and it is often true that\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffddemocratic parties often pander to\nthe classes and thus do not measure\nup to their principles. These divisions explain the existence of of Tory\ngovernment in this province today,\nwilh absolute power, with only two\nrepresentatives in thc legislature to\nraise an opposition, ask for information ur put forward an heinest yet\nfeeble effort in favor of the rights nf\nthe people against a political tyrany\nthe like of which never existed in B.\nC at any time.\nHe described the history of imperialism, showed its relation to Toryism and hnw the political warriors of\nEngland had t.e combat its influence\nagainst great eedds and showed how\nin this country today we were the inheritors of political freedom and democratic principles through the deprivation and sacrifice of mir Forefathers.\nHc expressed surprise that the people of B. C. should so f.irget these\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdSorts ami accomplishments with\nthese privileges in our possession that\nfnr years we should be held under the\ntyranny of aii autocratic Toryism,\nPerhaps, however, the Liberals were\nt.i blame, perhaps we ourselves had\ncompromised to much Tory influence\nfeir the sake of votes. England for\nthe last few years hail taught a les-\ns.in in this respect. When the Liberal government through the leadership of Mr. Asquith, and the true.\ndemocratic power of Lloyd George\nbad made it easy fe.r the masses to\nrealize that Liberal principles stood\nfeir the amelioration of the masses\n.and for steady, yel constant anel permanent reforms. There is no doubt\nWhatever that if these principles were\nput forwaril by thc part; with constancy that the masses iu this country would ceimc to realize who their\ntrue friends were.\nHe showed lhe effect of Toryism\nin this province by their land policy,\nuna by Iheir municipal and timber\nl\".''cv \\nd in contrast with their ad-\nmini?, .tii'ii showed up the democratic qt.$liiics t.i the Liberal platform\nwhich was being expounded throughout the province so clearly by Mr.\nBrewster, the provincial leader, and\nMr. M. A. Macdonald and Mr. John\nOliver. Hc was pleased to notice that\nlhe independent citizens were turning out to show their appreciation eif\nthe Liberal policy, which was an indication of whal would happen when\nan opportunity was again given the\npeople. Mr. Smith paid a high com-1\npliment to the ability of Mr. Carter-\nCotton, thc local member for the dis- I\ntrict, but he was not the power he |\nshould be. If Mr. Cotton stood up in\nthe legislature and spoke as he felt j\nhe would be a useful member, especially at thc present time, when independence was so badly needed. There\nare forty members on the Tory side\nand not one of them ever attempted\nto show any desire to speak out for\nthe people against a tyranical government.\nMr. Parker Williams and Mr. Place\nwere doing their best under great disadvantages and they were entitled to\ncredit for their opposition, but not\none man of the Tory party in the\nlegislature dare call his soul his own,\nbut even how, with all their power.\nTory followers have t'i make sweet\nreference to the government to please\nthein and get the largest possible\nshare of tlle political bounty. Mr.\nSmith went on to describe how he\nthought this political farce was effecting the elections today. 1 have great\nfaith in the people still. McBride professed strength of numbers today is\nhis greatest weakness. The machine\nis breaking by its own weight, there\nare very many more political pigs in\nthe trough than can be fed, and there\nis sixty per cent of the voters who\narc neither official Liberals or Tories\nand these are the people who will\ndestroy the government and replace\nit with men whom they thing will\ncarry on a policy in the general interests of the people.\nThe machine is mighty, it enters\ninto the ramifications of every part of\nsociety, but that means nothing when\nthis majority get roused, they know\nafter all that the machine men are\nonly there for what is personal gain\nto them at the expense of the people.\nThe speaker went on tn describe\nthe great Opportunities there were at\npresent tn perform a service for the\npeople anil put an enil tei a tyranny\nwhieh was a surprise to the people of\nthe other provinces. The audience\nwas unanimous in their appreciation,\nA vote of thanks was moved and\nseconded and carried with great unanimity when it was admitted by all\nlhat the association had got a great\nstart which would mean thc defeat\nof the Tory candidate whenever the\nelections came-on.\nSouth Hill Liberal Association is\ngrowing rapidly. At the meeting\nwere scores of men who are not usually to be found identified with\neither party.\nMain Street Must Be Paved:\nSo Says Reeve Dickie and Council\nBody of Property Owners Receive Definite Promise that the\nStreet Will Be Paved Directly\nMr. Ralph Smith, ex-M.P., a Canadian disciple of Lloyd-George, who\nmade brilliant speech at South Hill, Tuesday evening.\nSOUTH HILL LADIES ACTIVE\nIN MANY ORGANIZATIONS\nMain Street will be paved.\nWhen a delegation of Main Street\nproperty owners, representing the\nMain Street Improvement Association, waited on the Board of Works\nat the Hall, Tuesday, they were informed by the council that thc street\nwould surely be paved just so soon\nas thc council could get down to it.\nWhether the product of the Domin-\niein Creosoting Company's mills of\nthe North Arm will be used in the\npaving of the street has not yet been\ndefinitely decided by certain members\nof the council.\nCouncillor Gold asked the ratepayers who petitioned for the work\nwhether they would support the council in the event of a lawsuit being\nwaged with the Creosoting Company,\nIt is stated that Mr. Robert Richardson, not however on I. :half e.f the\ndelegation, stated that the ratepayers\nuld be with the council in the event\nof the street being paved forthwith,\nregardless of the Creosoting Company.\nWhile the council has signified its\nwillingness to go ahead with the paving of Main Street, it seems that there\nare several members who do not approve of the Dominion Creosoting\nCompany's contract. In this connection, the Main Street delegation declared their willingness to accept any\nstandard pavement for the street. The\nstreet, they pointed out, was practically impassable at the present moment. Business men are complaining\nnf conditions.\nReeve Dickie asked the delegation\nif they would bc satisfied if the coun\ncil would prccced with a portion of\nthe work. The e-rowd from the River\nRoad section of Main Street demanded tha* the pavement be run right\nthrough to the river.\nCouncillor Gold stated that he was\nemphatically in favor of paving the\nstreet. His reasons for objecting be\nthe proceedings of the past council\nin this regard were w-ell known, however.\nCouncillor Winram favored the\npaving eif the street, but counselled\ncaution in undertaking too great a\nburden at the present moment. Practically all the councillors admitted\nthe crying necessity of going ahead\nwith the paving of Main Street just so\nsoon as such a programme cnuld be\nfinanced satisfactorily.\nAmong the Main Street property\nowners demanding relief in the way\nof permanent pavement are the following members of the Main Street\nImprovement Asseeciatiem : Alderman\nC.

In\nother words, the obstacles have been\npolitical\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdnot mechanical. Napoleon\nproposed such a tunnel to Fox over\na hundred years ago, on plans submitted by the engineer Mat hit u.\nwhose scheme was for a submarine\ncarriage road and was probably impracticable. About 1876, a railway\ntunnel hegan tej be seriously proposed, and the engineering features eif\nthe weerk have iijw been well worked\nout. So long as France was looked\nUpon as Britain's hereditary enemy,\nthe project was forbidden by the English government as facilitating invasion, but now that the two nations are\nfriends, opposition seems to have I\nbeen withdrawn, and there appears\nto be some likelihood that the tunnel I\nmay really be constructed. Says the I\nwriter of an article un the subject in\nJe Sair Tout (Paris. November):\n\"The defense of Great Britain can\nbe in no way compromised by a Channel tunnel; on the contrary, such a\ntunnel would effectually contribute to\nthe success of the English armies in\na conflict with any continental power\nexcept France.\n\"It is an open secret that England\ndoes not live on the products of her\nown soil, and that she is obliged to\nimport from abroad the larger part\nuf the supplies necessary to feed her\ncitizens. Now, in case of war a large\npart of the English fleet would be\noccupied in protecting the vessels\nthat carry food to the United Kingdom. Suppose, on the other hand,\nthat a tunnel existed; this supply\nwould be effected through the submarine route, and the British fleet\nwould no longer he obliged to em-\nplo\\ part of its vessels in guard duty.\n\"The opponents of the tunnel, however, do not consider themselves beaten. If the transportation of supplies i\nfollows this route in time of war, they\nsay, there is no reason why it should\nnot be used also in peace, so that a\nChannel tunnel might ruin the British\nmerchant marine.\n\"Really, however, all these reasons\nhave for a basis a sentiment that will\nbear no arguments, but is inspired by\nthe desire of the English to preserve\ntheir traditions.\n\"Despite the efforts of railroad and\nsteamship companies to lessen the\nduration of tbe passage, one can not\nyet travel from Paris to London with\nthe same ease as from Paris to Brussels. The sea voyage will always constitute, in the view of many, an obstacle to the rapid growth of friendly\nrelations with England. While the\nnumber of passengers between\nFrance and Germany reaches annually nearly 8,000.000, that of the travellers between England and the different ports on the Channel, the North\nSea. and the Baltic scarcely exceeds\n1,500,000.\n\"The Channel tunnel would cause\nthese impediments to disappear. . .\nIt is calculated that it would lessen by\ntwo hours the present quickest passage between London and Paris.\n\"It is evident that shortly the movement of travel between the two great\nwestern capitals would be doubled or\ntrebled, and that business between\nFrance and England would increase\nin the same proportion. Everything\ngoes to show that the building of a\nsubmarine passage would cause an increase of commerce between the two\ngreat nations and that new prosperity\nwould arise from the effort necessary\nto create it.\n\"Would not this effort, however, be\ntoo great? Is it not folly to think of\nexerting it? Are not the obstacles\ninsurmountable? We put these questions to Mr. Sartiaux, engineer in\nchief of the Northern company, who\nhas made a deep study of the channel tunnel plan.\n\"The first condition of success for\na Channel tunnel, he replied, is the\nexistence, in this submarine region,\nof an impermeable geologic stratum,\nthrough which the tunnel may be driven. Now this desirable stratum does\nexist. Nearly eight thousand soundings have been made to ascertain exactly thc position of the different layers that form the bottom of the\nStraits of Dover. Among these geologic strata is found that called by\nscientists the Cenomanlati, which has\nall the necessary qualities. It is nearly 200 feet thick, and the compact\ntexture of ils rocks will resist all Alteration. The water lhat must be\ntaken care of while the work is going on will be of vastly smaller quantity than can easily be managed by\na moderate pumping plant.\n\"ihe tunnel will be composed of\ntwo circular parallel passages about\n50 feet apart and each 18 to 20 feet\nin diameter. The entrance of the tunnel will be near Blanc Nez and the\nconnecting tracks will leave thc main\nSIX REASONS\nWHICH ACCOUNT FOR THE SUPERIORITY OF\nCREOSOTED WOOD\nBLOCK PAVEMENTS\nITS DURABILITY\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDoes not crumble or pulverize under the densest traffic; second only to granite\nblocks\nITS EASE OF REPAIR-No difficulty being experienced in removing and replacing the blocks; no\nexpensive plane or skilled workmen required.\nITS SANITARY QUALITIES\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdCreosote being a\nhighly antiseptic and waterproofing material instantly destroys all germs, prevents the absorption of\nstreet filth and consequent decay.\nITS NOISELESSNESS\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe rattle and bang of\nvehicles passing over its smooth surface absorbed\nand muffled till the quiet of the dirt road is obtained.\nITS DUSTLESSNESS\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDoes not pulverize; the\nheaviest traffic only pounding down the wood fibres\nto offer the greater resistance.\nITS CLEANLINESS\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdHaving a smooth surface and\nbeing waterproof it does not differ in this respect\nfrom asphalt.\nWe manufacture blocks of the highest possible\nstandard, the verv best materials only being used and\nin the DOMINION WOOD BLOCKS we believe\nwe produce an article that has no equal.\nDOMINION CREOSOTING\n COMPANY LIMITED\t\nVancouver, B.

One should not try to induce citizens of\nother countries, although of German nationality, to\nmake contributions of such kind, The impression\nmight be the same in their countries as it would be in\nGermany if anybody would try to raise money for\nFrench military purposes in Alsace-Loraine.\"\nOf the scores of publications issued in Greater Vancouver, there is not one which is doing its duty more\nnobly than the \"German Press,\" which serves as prosperous and as progressive a community of the German\npeople as may be found in the Dominion. The \"German I'ress\" is doing much not only in a local, but international, way to promote thc development of the\nPacific Coast.

One of the grave wrongs which may be\nworked upon a long-suffering community by an unscrupulous administration is that of having to listen\nto the oratorial eruptions of individuals who take the\nstump with tht idea in mind of putting the heel firmly\non the corrupt administration's neck. Next to the\noldtimer politician, who has had his day, the youthful oracle whose attitude on the platform suggests the\nlaw-courts, is the worst offender.\nProbably the greatest speech ever made was delivered in some five minutes by Lincoln on the battlefield\nof Gettysburg. Here it is in full:\n\"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought\nf6rth ou this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are\ncreated equal.\n\"Now we are engaged in a great civil war. testing\nwhether that nation, eir any nation so conceived and\nso dedicated can long endure. We ate met on a great\nbattlefield of that war. W'e have come to dedicate a\nportion of that field as a final resting-place for those\nuho here gave their lives that that nation might live.\nli is altogether fitting and proper that we should do\nthis.\n\"Hut, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The\nbrave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have\nconsecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember\nwhat we say here, but it can never forget what they\ndid here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who\nfought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is\nrather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthat from these honored dead we\ntake increased devotion to that cause for which they\ngave the last full measure of devotion; that we here\nhighly resolve that these dead shall not have died in\nvain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new\nbirth of freedom; and that government of the people,\nby the people, for the people, shall not perish from\nthe earth.\"\nBefore going out of power, Mr. Bowser might make\namends for a great volume of his sins while in office by\nintroducing a measure confining all political utterances to a bare twenty minutes.\nvidge which might be brought to the attention of\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdvery municipal official in British Columbia.\nIn a recent interview Reeve Lougheed stated with\ncgard to the publishing of itemized statements of\naunicipal expenditures, that under the system he pro-\nosed to put forward in Maple Ridge once the roads\nmd beats were clearely defined under the new bylaws,\nte favored the publishing of a quarterly report\nThe Clerk would keep a handbook in which would be\niiaced a record of all monies expended on the roads in\n.he different beats. The information would be dear'y stated, and would be in tabulated form, so that the\nterns would be intelligible to everybody, councillor\nind ratepayer alike. This book would be audited\nluarterlv in the usual audit by the municipal account-\nmts. At the end of every three months a statement\nwould be published in the press, reproducing the contents of the road handbook, and also showing the\namount of money that had been available to spend at\nthe beginning of the period. If the ratepayers wished\nfurther details, such as how much of the total sum\nexpended on a specific road was used for teaming,\nmaterial, labor and so on, the Council would furnish\nthe information asked to such enquirer. Besides road\nexpenditures, the su us paid for salaries and current\nexpenditures, with the monies received by the Council\nwould be shown.\n\"SWEET MARIE\"\nFOLLOWING the appearance of the celebrated\nMarie Lbyd in the City of Winnipeg, a writer\nin one of the Winnipeg publications says in part as\nfollows:\n\"Marie Lloyd having proved herself \"a puffick lidy\"\nin Vancouver by invading the office of the 'World,' of\nthat city, with a trunk strap and administering a hiding to Editor Taylor, the editors in Winnipeg have\nreason to congratulate themselves that they printed\nnothing during the fair Marie's sojourn here that incurred her wrath.\n\"Mayor Deacon, despite his name, is no snuffling\nPuritan and professional moralist, full of the idea that\nhe must scuttle around trying to regulate the lives of\nother people, like Mayor Baxter, of Vancouver.\n\"Mayor Deacon is a man of good sense and finds\nthat it takes all his time to attend to his own business\nind his proper duties as Mayor, without posing as an\nembodiment of the Moral Law by day and scooting\naround at night to see the performances of ladies like\nMarie Lloyd so that he can denounce them next morning in language of virtuous indignation and issue his\nproclamation against them.\n\"As a matter of plain fact, what pitiful nonsense\nall this hounding of Marie Lloyd is!\n\"Why pick out Marie Lloyd and subject her to persecution ?\n\"Surely it cannot be on account of her performances\non the stage, which are simply nothing more nor less\nthan amusing and vulgar.\n\"They are coarse, if you like, but not for a moment\nare they voluptuous or insidiously demoralizing.\n\"1 can mention, and you can mention, offhand, a list\nof women of wide celebrity before the footlights whose\nperformances, judged sanely from the standpoint of\nmorality, are vastly more deserving of condemnation and suppression than Marie Lloyd's.\n\"But these ladies have met with no such trouble as\npoor Marie has been up against on this super-virtuous\nside of the Atlantic.\n\"Any person whose morals can be injured by anything that Marie Lloyd sings, or says, or does on the\nstage, ought to be provided with blinkers and ear-\nwads and a governess\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdan angular, vinegary female\nof at least middle age\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdto lead him about and protect\nhis delicate virtue from contamination by contact with\nthe realities of this wicked world; and, even at that,\nhe would probably generate enough wickedness in his\nown thoughts to make himself corrupt.\"\nITEMISED MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTS\nMAPLE RIDGE Municipality, having elected Nelson S.

It is encouraging to note that the South\nVancouver council stands, almost to a man, in favor\nof assisting development on the North Fraser and it\nmay be expected that the local councils will contribute\nproportionately to the great good South Vancouver is\nbound to participate in with the successful improvement of the view harbor.\nLOOK AT KINGSWAY\nWHILE the subject of permanent paving in South\nVancouver is agitating the public mind, it\nmight be well to turn to the experiment on Kingsway.\nOld' Westminster Road was undoubtedly the most abominable piece of highway in the whole of Canada.\nThe movement to have the street paved was got under way by leading ratepayers between Boundary\nRoad and Knight Road. The usual squabble developed over the advisability of spending great sums in\nthis way and the usual squabble, after this matter was\ndecided, developed as to the class of pavement to be\nused.\nFeeling ran very high on the subject of paving\nKingsway, the council of that time came in for a lot\nof abuse and the particular pavement used was also\nassailed. Time, however, has laid to rest all the petty\nbickerings. Kingsway. South Vancouver, is probably\nthe finest stretch of permanent pavement in Western\nCanada. A morass, mire, bog has been transformed\ninto a marvelous boulevarde over which motor cars\nfrom two countries roll along hy the hundreds every\nday. Kingsway is a splendid advertisement and a\nthing of beauty with almost everlasting qualities. It\ncost the municipality money, but the municipality is\ngetting good value, and the ratepayers along the street\nhave found themselves as a result of the paving of\nthe highway, in the centre of things rather than on\nthe rim.\nm\nBY THE WAY\nm\nCANADIAN ACHIEVEMENT\nTill''. Dominion of Canada has been making in the\npast ten years greater --trides than have ever\nbeen made by any nation in the world's history in so\n-hort a time. This fact is the subject of an editorial\nin the current issue of the \"Saturday Evening Post\"\nwhich says:\n\"Reporting to the 'Statist' on the condition eif\nCanada, George Paish remarks that the great era of\nrailroad building is now almost closed. Both the new\ntrunklines across the continent will be completed within a year and the old one will have been double-\ntracked much of the way. With these and numerous\nbranch lines Canada will have built seventeen thousand miles of railroad within a dozen years at a cost,\nincluding equipment and improvements, of a thousand million dollars.\n\"Now Canada contains decidedly fewer people than\nthe state of New York and far less capital. In proportion to population no country ever before built railroads so fast, and in relative material development\nduring the last decade the Dominion has much exceeded the United States.\n\"Glancing at the history of the Canadian Northwest for the last dozen years, one might fairly say\nthat the Dominion made a continent to order. As the\nrailroads spread across the provinces land came into\ncultivation, towns appeared, industries sprang up.\n\"It is all an interesting illustration of the modern\nmobility and organization of capital. For this development Canada has borrowed since 1907 a billion and\ni quarter dollars in England and perhaps a third as\nmuch in the United States. Without great stores of\nsurplus money to draw on. the development would\nhave been impossible.\nAS A SURE CURE for the smoking habit, a new\nYork investigator recommends the chewing of gentian.

Patronage is needed to make a business a success.\nIn having a name and business always before the public,\nor the name of a specially named product, buyers have\nit in mind when that kind of thing is wanted. If the ad. is\nin a handy place, only a moment is needed to refer to it.\nWhat better medium is there than the telephone\ndirectory? An advertiser wants circulation, and he gets\nit. Thirty-one thousand directories are issued, and they\ngo into every home that does considerable buying between\nAgassiz and the Gulf of Georgia. Every part of thc district is covered.\nAn advertiser appreciates a medium that is in constant use. The directory is used an average of eight times\nper subscriber per day, or over 200,000 times every\ntwenty-four hours. These figures arc not guessed at, but\nare ascertained by actual count each month. Moreover,\nthe directory is never discarded. It is referred to unceasingly, and man, woman and child soons get familiar\nwith thc names prominently displayed therein.\nAn advertiser wants to make sure he is reaching the\npeople he wants. Who is there who does not consult a\ntelephone directory some time during the day? If a firm's\nname is displayed on several consecutive pages at the\ntop or bottom, or if the name of a special article were\nshown there, would it not soon be known in every household on the Lower Mainland of British Columbia?\nIf you have something to market, if you want to reach\nall the people all the time, take a look at the directory.\nIt is a particularly good medium for most purposes, and\nvery probably it will be just what you want.\nBritish Columbia Telephone\nCOMPANY, LIMITED\nHIGHLAND LIQUOR COMPANY, Limited\n758 POWELL STREET\nDealers in Wines, Liquors and Cigars\nPHONE\nHIGHLAND\n555\nCascade Beer\nHeidleberg ....\nB.

The young\nI bride,'* who furnishes her home, frequently fits her kitchen with one kind\nof ware \"because it looks so nice,\"\n; but the older, more experienced\nhousekeeper knows that in many\nkinds nf ware there is wisdom. She\nj has learned that Senile tiling! cook\nbesl in one kind of utensil, some in\nanother. A kitchen with an assortment of wares is much better equipped than eene with wares of but one\nI material.\nNo kitchen, feir instance, would bc\n| completely equipped with only earthenware utensils, for these have a\ncomparatively restricted field of usefulness: yet the kitchen that is without\nthem misses a great ileal. Ill the\nlirst place, they are so attractive that\n! they may he used both for en.eking\nand serving\ufffd\ufffd\ufffda distinct saving of la-\nheir. In thc second, they are most\n; suitable for oven-cooked foods. When\nwith a moderate lire the oven will\ncook slowly, avoiding excessive heat\nin summer and extra fuel bills all the\nyear around.\nOven cooking is nearly always\nmuch tei be preferred to cooking on\nthe top of the stove as it is cooking\nat a low, even temperature which\nbest conserves flavors, and renders\ntough foods most digestible. Earthenware dishes are designed for oven\ncooking. Casseroles with lifted covers are suitable for stews of endless\nvariety. Casseroles conic in two general styles, the red clay utensil with\nthe brown glazed interior, and the\nbrown glazed utensil which is pure\nwhite inside. The matter of material is one of individual taste. Both\nstyles arc equally good.\nThe Ideal Nursery\nIt is not possible in every home to\nkeep one room especially for the\nchildren's use. But wherever it can\nbe done, the gain is great in very\nmany respects.\nThe kind of room most suitable is\na large, well-lighted, easily ventilated apartment with a sunny aspect, and\none not situated too high up in the\nhouse. Sunlight and fresh air are almost as important as food to the\nchild. Walis and ceilings are most\nhygenic when distempered nr enamelled in pale tints. For thc floor a\nwashable cork carpet is a warm and\nsanitary covering, and can now be\nbought In attractive patterns. An oven\nfireplace, which should be well protected, aids ventilation, and in the\nnursery is the best mode of heating.\nThe furniture should be simple\nwithout being severe. Highly polished furniture and thc lumber of\nother rooms should never find their\nway into the nursery. There should\nlie a large, comfortable sofa, a cosy\narm-chair, and a low table, which\nsheiuld be perfectly stable and fitted\nwith castors. These, with, some cane\nchairs, mats, a small cabinet for\ncrockery, and cupboard for toys, are\nnecessary and sufficient.\n* e, *\nGirdle belts of knitted silk in all of\nthe fashionable shades strongly appeal to the girl who affects frocks in\none dark tone. The girdle, which any\none may knit in a comparatively short\nwhile may be stretched up and down\nfrom thc waist line or crushed together narrowly, whichever mannei\nbest becomes the figure.\nAt both ends it is finished with\nfringe six inches long and made of\ntwisted silk cords, drawn in groups\nnf strands through a row of rather\nlarge composition beads In a ce.lnr\nstrongly contrasting with the knitted\nmeshing. The effect of a deep red\nor .green, a bright yellow or purple\nwaistband having a fringe beaded\nwith a row of orange or purple beads\nis a true bizarre, but worn with a\ndark toned house frock its effect is\nsmart aild, quite as much to be desired, unusual.\ne|\ufffd\ufffd * *\nThe Gas Stove\nIf a gas stove is cared for properly in the every day routine it is a simple matter to keep it clean. It need\nnot be blackened, but a weekly washing with soap and water and a stiff\nlittle brush, fedlowed by a thorough\ndrying off. with the oven burners\nlighted, will keep it bright.\nThe daily care means an immediate\nremoval of anything spilled or spattered on the stove or in the ovens.\nThe slide tray under thc burners I\nshould be washed frequently and\nscrubbed if necessary: otherwise it\nsoon becomes crusted over with dust\nand grease. If the gas flame is red\nor blows, try relighting, first letting\nthe gas flow a few seconds. If this\ndoes not remedy thc trouble there is\nprobably another which interferes.\nBrush out thc burner openings carefully. A persistent trouble of this\nsort should be referred to the gas\ncompany.\nIn lighting the oven the torch or\npilot should always be used and then\nturned off. This is simply for lighting, not for heal. Another precaution which certain housekeepers have\nbeen known to neglect is never to\nleave thc broiling pan in the oven\nwhen it is not in use. It becomes\nroughened and burned, if left in the\nheat when empty.\n* * *\nJellied Vegetables\nSoak one tablespoon granulated\ngelatine in one-fourth cup cold water,\nand dissolve in one cup boiling water;\nthen add one-fourth cup, each, sugar\nand vinegar, two tablespoons lemon\njuice, and one teaspoon salt. Strain,\ncool, and when beginning to stiffen\nadd one cup celery, cut in small pieces\none half-cup finely shredded cabbages\nand one and one-half canned pimen-\ntocs; cut in small pieces, turn mould\nand arrange around jelly thin slices\nof cold cooked meat over-lapping one\nanother. Garnish with celery tips.\n* * *\nThe New Blouse\nA good example of the contrasting\ncorsage is one with an oveque violet satin blouse combined with a\nblack satin skirt. The black of the\nskirt is repeated in the corsage at the\nelbows by an inset band in the velvet\nbelt and in the crossed velvet ribbon in front. The vest is of white\nsatin, as is the collar with a point in\nthe back, the last feature in waists.\nLittle black buttons and buttonholes\ntrim the little coat-tail additions below the belt. The corsage is kimono\nshaped. Fur edges the lapels. The\nvest is finished with tiny silk buttons\nand a new kind of stimulated buttonhole, like that used on the back.

The\ntwo big scenes are the tragic death\nof the girl's sister and the murder of\nthe man whe, legally killed her. \"The\nEscape\" has been sub-iiiristcned\n\"The Imperator eef Sex Drama\" and\nit is indeed the strongest and most\nstraightforward play upon the relations e,f men and women now on the\nstage. Il concerns not an escape\nfrom the law, nor an escape from the\nunderworld, but the escape eef a poor\nItar-gazing, vitally human girl from\nthe heel of poverty grinding her into\nthe mire of complete effacement. How\ndoes shc escape? How do hundreds\nof others like her escape every day?\nAnd what windows eef their souls are\nopened to what tempests of remorse\nin after years? Mr Armstrong's play\nis as factfus as a police station blotter, and though remorseless in its\nportrayal of certain conditions is nevertheless healthily optimistic. It contains some remarkable character\ntypes, which will give splendid opportunities for every member of the\nLawrence Ceempany.
