COOLING A3 EA8Y AS HEATING.
Now, when ono comes to think of It,
thero 1b difficulty In understanding
why humnnlty hns always ronllzcd thoj
need' of mitigating tho severity of cll
tnato that takes tho form of cold, bu
for tho most part still assumes tho Imj
possibility of dolr.fr anything to torn'
per heat, from which wo suffer al
most as much, says New York Time,
At less oxpenso thnn that by which
houses aro warmed In winter they can
bo coolod In summer, and, whllo tho
wlntor heating, thanks to our strange
refusal to learn tho art of ventilation,
Involves tho creation of conditions In
jurious to health, thoso which sum
mer cooling would establish would
probably bo In ovcry way beneficial tot
us. At any rato, tho thing Is per
fectly practlcablo. Of courso, It
adopted, it would add to tho cost of
living, but it would also Incroaso tho
general stock of availablo energy,
which would mean an Incrcaso of
earning powor to a more than com
pensating degree Not much of a ro
frlgoratlon plant would bo required to
bring tho air of a bedroom to a torn
poraturo In which sleep would bo re
freshing, Instoad of imposslblo or ex
hausting, and tho wondor Is that tho
rich and tho well-to-do, at least, do not
generally, Instead of hardly at oil,
utlllzo a benefit which sclonco Is ready
to glvo thorn for much less money tbnn
they pay for a thousand other smaller
luxuries and convonloncos.
Tho first passenger airship to bo
operated for regular transportation
purposes has been put In commission
In Germany. It Is a Zeppelin dlrlgl
bio and will run over a courso that
Will Includo Friedrlchshafon, Stutt
gart, Mannheim, Cologno and Dussol
dorf. At first Count Zoppolln him
) If, Inventor of tho machlno which
boars his name, will bo at tho helm.
Tho airship has capacity for twenty
fiassengers, for whom accommoda
Ions as luxurious as thoso of a Pull
man palaco car havo been provided.
As tho ontorprlso 1b backed by a ship
ping company of undoubted standing
thcro scorns to bo nmplo faith In tho
success of tho ontorprlso nnd belief
that aerial navigation has come to
Btay.
Finland, in so far as tho autonomy
enjoyed heretofore Is concerned, has
practically boon wiped oft tho map,
tht Douma first nnd tho Council of
tho iimpiro Anally having enacted tho
law which turnB ovor tho administra
tion of Finnish affairs to representa
tives of tho czar. Finland was form
erly a grand duchy, and, though un
der IlusBlan control, had a largo mens
uro of self-government. Tho Finns
nre a sturdy, solf-rollant and intelli
gent people and huvo mado groat
progress in education and othorwlso.
Dut tho policy of Russia la to central
Izo control at St. Petersburg, and tho
disposition of Flnlnnd Is tho latest
exemplification of tho existing ten
dency. VVhon fnrmers turn to "bulling"
wheat the speculators In tho grain
exchanges hardly know whero they
nro at Thoro seoms to bo something
like a comblnod effort on tho part of
tho big wheat-growers of tho north
west to keep up prices, says Mllwnu
koo Evening Wisconsin. Delegations
by tralnlonds nro going to somo of tho
largo trading-centers llko St. Paul and
donllng In heavy lots. Somo of thoso
farmers nro rated as millionaires, hav
ing mado fortunes in grain growing,
nnd they also seem to understand tho
bull and bear business. At least tho
professional speculators In tho "wheat
pit" And tho tillers of tho soil foomon
worthy of their steel.
Before you begin to criticise nvla
tion meets for not punning out nB per
promises, ploaso kindly remember
bow many races for tho America's can
havo been boring nnd inconclusive
drifting matches. Doth nvlntlon and
yachting depend on tho wind, and tho
wind is mighty uncertain.
A Michigan farmer who separated

Western bnnltors report that the
rmers of Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri
Jad Iowa havo spent $15,000,000 for
automobiles. Thoro must bo something
fjh that story nftor all.
Kidnaping Is still provnllent despite
Vne discouragements of heavy son
toncos. Tho only romedy seems to In
creaso tho penalty.
The prlco of cigarettes is going up
but this of course won't bothor tho

When airships become so thick that

THE SUNDAY NIGHT SUPPER.
During tho hot' wonthcr tbo simpler
tho food the hotter tho health of tho
family. A salad with uandwlchea and
fruit with n glass of lco tea or milk
makes a sufficient meal after a hearty
llnnnor on Sunday.
A combination of grated cheese and
hopped nuts, with a littlo talad dress
ing Is a good Ailing for sandwiches.
Peanut butter Is liked by many, and
Is an easy Ailing to uso, being ready
prepared.
A slmplo snlad, If ono Is fond of
peanuts, Is prcpnrcd by chopping tho
nuts, sprlnklo over crisp lettuce nnd
pour over a trench dressing, made by
using four tablcspoonfuls of olive oil
to two of vlnegnr and a tablespoonful
of onion Juice, salt and pepper to
taste.
An easy way to servo n Bupper on
Sunday night Is to serve It buffet
stylo. Arrango tho table with tho sil
ver, dishes and food on the table and
sideboard, whero each may help him
self. ,
An egg sandwich is good n sup
per sandwich, nnd easily m.ty. Cook
sufficient eggs for tho number of .sand
wiches needed. When cold, remove
tho shells nnd crush with a fork, sea-
toning with melted butter, salt, pep
per and onion Juice.
Saving Hints.
When purchasing mcatB a two days'
supply 1b found to bo an economy, ns
many tempting dishes may bo mndo
with apparently no qxtrn expense.
Celery stalks, leaves, parsley and mint
should bo cnrofully dried and kept for
an emergency.
A few contB expended occasionally
for parsloy, green peppers, a lemon
and an orange, to bo used as a garnish,
Is wlBe, for that which appeals to tho
eyo also appealB to tho palate.
Save all pieces of meat, vegetables
and corenls, oven If tho amount Is
small. Chop, add ecu and brond
crumbs, roll Into balls and fry. Serve
with tomato sauco and garnish with
parsley.

Juico add a half cupful of sugar and
n qunrter of a cupful of water, boll to
gether ten minutes nnd put In a hot

When egg lemonudo Is wanted, boat

Btifllclent wnter und sirup for the
amount desired.

Pour two quarts of boiling water
over two heaping touspoonfuls of ten
and steep flvo minutes. Strain ovor
two pounds of loaf sugar nnd stand

VARITIES OF JUNKET.
Although most people aro fond of
Junket, not many know tho variety of
ways in which it may bo served. It
Is regarded by most as the very plain
est typo of cookery, as It Is seldom
met except perfectly plnln, Bcrvcd
with cream or perhaps tomo fruit.
Thero nro many moro claborato dishes
which nro not nearly so pleasing na
Junket, if It is carefully prepared.
Tho Junket tablet must bo added
to tho sweetened nnd flavored milk
when Just luko warm or It will not
thicken properly.
Junket has tho merit of being ono
of our most wholesome foods, nnd
mnny who ennnot eat milk And tt
very pleasant, nB It Is In n moro di
gestible form than plnln milk.
I'or Invalids, it forms an Ideal
nourishment, ns tho thickening of tho
milk by tho rennet Is exactly tho samo
process as that which takes placo In
digestion, and It Is consequently more
easily assimilated thnn milk which
has not been trented with Junket,
Junket Is used for mnklng lco
crenm, which renders It easier of di
gestion. Another uso of Junket Is in
making curd, while llttlo cream
cheeses and delicious llttlo cakeB may
bo mndo nt homo.
The milk used for Junket should bo
fresh nnd pure boiled milk will not
answer and It should bo warmed to
blood heat and no higher. Anothor
point to remember Is that it should
bo left in n warm placo without stir
ring until 1b Arm, then put In a
cool plnco until wanted to serve.
If It Is shaken It will break and sep
arate Into whey.
Caramel Junket.
Put six tableopoonfuls of sugar Into
a snucepan, placo over tho heat and
molt; when tho sirup Is a rich brown
romovo, add a few tablcapoonfuls ol
milk nnd let stand until dissolved.
Add this flavored milk to a quart ol
warm milk and n Junket tablet dis
solved In a llttlo water. Pour Into
cups or glasses nnd lot stand until
Arm In a warm place, then put on lco
until serving time.

PLAY WITH THE CHILDREN'
Fabled Fountain of Youth Could No
Be More Potent Than Association
With Little Ones.
"Play with tho chlldrenl" was th
recurrent advice- of a wise aud suo
cossful man. "TIiIb will keop your
heart young, your vlowpolnt fresh
your wit Bparkllng. Tbo child heart is
at onco tho purest nnd tho happiest
In nil nature; tho child tongue Is i
transfiguring power."
Something of this Indulbtnblo power
attaches to good stories of those naive
and Innocent "little ones" scrlpturally
declared specially blessed and potent
Tho child mind transforms, the chlldf
touch lifts to glad laughter Incidents
and nccldents not otherwise worth
noting. Witness this llttlo tale of the
careful mother to whom enmo a tiny
son all agog ovor tho acquirement of
now and forhlddon knowledge.
"Mother!" cried the child, baby
eyes shining, baby cheeks glowing,
"do you know what Til bo homswojr
gled' tnenna?"
"No, dear," said tho mother, col
emnly, seizing tho opportunity to Im
plant a lesson. "I'm sure I do not."
"Well, I do," Wtts tho ecstatic nn
swer, tho suggested lesson being ut
terly Ignored. "It menns Just the
snmo as 'I'll bo gol-darnedl'"
