To mend the paper invisibly, tear the patch to be used, instead of cutting it, match- ing the patterns carefully. If the paper on the wall is faded, the patch should be faded in the sun before it is applied. The uneven patch will be quite unnoticeable. Measuring Molasses.

Assemblyman Edward P. (Boyle, who introduced the measure 'before the ateEte legislature, had made similar provisions for products within t state, he added. Health Commissioner Wynne, in a letter, informed Dr. Pabst of his wil- lingness to have the sanitary code of the city changed to conform to the proposed measure and expressed his approval of them, the latter said. provision in the sanitary code at pres- ent prohibited the sale or manufac- ture of cosmetics containg poisons, but made no provision concerning la- belling, he added. RUSSIIA AND CHINA FIGHT OVER RAILROAD One-half cup butter, one cup gran- ulated sugar, two-thirds cup water, two cups flour, three teaspoons bak- ing powder, whites of two eggs, half teaspoon salt, one teaspoon flavoring. Cream shortening and sugar to- gether until very light; add water slowly, almost drop by drop, and beat constantly; add flavoring, stir in the flour, salt and baking powder which have been sifted together twice; fold in the whites of eggs which have been beaten until stiff and dry; but spoon- ful of batter into small individual cake tins and bake in moderate oven 20 to 25 minutes or bake in shallow pan and cut in squares. Soap Chips in a Jiffy. Instead of using a paring knife to cut up soap, take your grater and rub a bar of soap on it—this shaves up the soap in a very short time. By this method you can use your favorite kind of soap. whereas it is not al- ways obtainable in chip form at the stores. When you are through with the grater, put it in the dish pan and pour boiling water over it; this will clean the grater and make your dish water soapy—providing the soap was not perfumed. Devil's Fo.,,d Cake. One-half cupful grated chocolate, one cupful brown sugar, half cupful sweet milk, one egg yolk, one tea- spooriful vanilla. Melt the choclate, add the sugar, milk and egg yolk, and lastly, flavor- ing and cook over hot water in a double boiler. Set aside to cool while mixing the second part. One cupful brown sugar, half cup- ful butter, two eggs, half cupful sweet milk, two cupfuls flour, one teaspoonful baking powder. Cream the butter and sugar and add the egg yolks. Add the milk and sifted flour. Beat all together, stir Moths. in custard, and lastly add one tea- spoonful of baking powder dissolved in a little warm water, and the beat- en egg whites.

Perhaps as much through a distrust of Russia as a consideration of the facts which so far have come to light the rest of the world will be inclined to believe that China is in the right in the Manchurian dispute. The Chin- ese position is that when the agree- ment was made with Russia five years ago as to the management of the Chinese Eastern railway Russia pledged herself to refrain from prop- aganda in Chinese territory. Subse- quently evidence came to light thus hai Russia had violated this pledge, vitiating the agreement. Therefore China deposed the Russian officials and took control of the system. The Russians on the other hand say that China has seized their property with no more legal authority than is cited when Chinese bandits seize foreign- ers and hold them for ransom. Who owns the railway? That is in dispute and the trouble will not be ended un- til ownership is vested in one nation or the other. Or, perhaps, we should say that it will not be over until China owns it. But if the question is: Who found the money to build the railroad? the answer is more favorable to Russia. The railroad itself is the product of the war between Chi, a and Japan in 1894, at the c ncl(u `. of which China had to pay Ja . arge indemnity.

To save your floor mop, make a few bags of unbleached cotton flan- mel—wrong side out—and draw up with tape to slip over the mop. This dusts the floor beautifully and is easily washed each week, with the dusters at the end of your wash. One and a quarter yard will make three bags. Apple Sauce. When making apple sauce, if you find the apples still remain in pieces after cooking for some time, beat with dover egg beater while still hot. When Travelling. Take the fingers of your old rubber gloves and stretch them well down over the tops of medicine bottles when you are travelling. They will keep the corks in and prevent leaks.

So China was in a mood to protect herself against future troubles by a kind of alliance with Russia. China granted i Russia the right to build a railroad through Manchuria, beginning in Si- beria and ending in Valdivostok. It was understood, though it did not ap- pear in the formal documents, that in exchange for this Russia would protect China from future Japanese attacks. More than the right to build the goad was ceded. China gave the right of way to Russia and also gave to Russia ownership of and control over any cities that might in future grow up around the railroad. For all practical purposes the rail- road and its towns and cities and necessary expansions were to be Rus- sian territory. At the end of 80 years the road was to be handed back to China without cost, but it was pro- vided that at the end of 36 years China might buy the road by paying for all the capital invested, plus in- terest charges. One of the develop- ments of the roalroad was a branch line run through Manchuria to Port Arthur. This brought Russia almost within the Japanese sphere of in- fluence and was one of the chief causes of the Russo-Japanese war. At the end of the struggle Japan took possession of this branch line, and one of its first steps was to change the gauge of the rails so that in case an- other war broke out Russia could not use the part of the system entering the Japanese zone of influence. But up to the beginning of the World War Russia remained in control of the main part of the railroad, despite the fact that Chinese restlessness under the old agreement was visibly in- creasing. When the revolution broke out China thought she saw an oppor- tunity of getting hold of a line which was built through Chinese territory and which was growing more and more important not only commercial- ly but politically with the growth of cities along the right of way. But the new Russian government was not disposed to be shorn of the railroad. It was, nevertheless, will- ing to make a new agreement with China. This agreement was much more favorable to China than the old one and was hailed at the time as showing the sincerity of the profes- sions of the Soviet government to live at peace with its neighbors. It re- cognized the railway as purely a com- mercial undertaking and resigned to China all control over the towns through which it passed. It was agreed that Chinese and Russians should have equal opportunities of employment and that China should be fairly represented among the di- rectors. Certainly Chinacould have made no such bargain with Czarist Russia, but on the other hand, Czarist Russia would not have sought to use the railroad for propaganda purposes. Perhaps it can be admitted that China took rather a high hand. If so it can be asserted that it is time that China did take a high hand. China is changing. She is tired of foreign interference in her affairs and it must be admitted that foreign inter- ference is very much a thing of the past. Old treaties may be still in existence which were forced upon China in her days of weakness, but they are not in operation. The extra- territorial treaties are not being en- forced. China is not so much meek - ening as she is uniting. There is n central government in Nanking, which if it controlb only a fraction of China, is daily extending its au- thority.

Pabst, chief dermatologist of the Greenpoint hospital in Brooklyn, New York. Dr. Pabst has issued an ap- peal for the medical profession and the public to support bills intended to stop the sale of cosmetics containing poisons, now pending in Congress and in the legislature of the State of New York. Says the New York Times: There has been an increase of at least 50 per cent. during the past three years in the number of skin diseases resulting from the use of cosmetics. With the growth of the cosmetic industry to a point where more than $3,000,000,01)0 worth of cosmetics is sold every year, small laboratories have sprung up through- out the nation to manufacture "mir- acle potions guaranteed to do almost anything," Dr. Pabst said. Frequently, he added, "in order to approximate their advertised purpose the products of these manufacturers contained poisons such as lead, mer- cury or arsenic, and practically all of them were sold without the name of the manufacturer appearing on the container. One of the products of this type in which poison was frequently used, he said, was face powder which it was claimed would not rub off. If such powder were used in large quantities over a long period of time lead poisoning would be the result; but even if used only in small quanti- ties the lead in it was apt to cause eczema or dermatitis, he went on. Of- ten, he said, in the case of products guaranteed not to ru'b off," the "re- mover" which was provided by the manufacturer for his own product was more dangerous than the product it- self. Many of these "removers," he ex- plained, contained alcohol in too strong a solution, or even ether, and it was these mixtures "that would take the paint off an automobile." Cosmetics, he pointed out, included practically all mixtures and products applied externally to the body, and men used them hi the form of sbav- ing prepnratiovis, hair tonic and simi- lar .products.

LUTHER Vla'1DIICATER OF PURIITANIISM CHARGE It is refreshing in a day when the main purpose of biographers appears to be to hold up to ridicule and con- tempt the subjects of their exhume tions to find one of them coming in- stead to the rescue of his hero and refuting ugly charges made against him. "Luther Was Not a Puritan" by Rev. Ray 191. Abrams in Plain Talk puts the father of Protestantism be- fore us in a nevi light. Mr. Abrams has little difficulty in proving from Luther's owia writings that whoever called him n Puritan was either in .ignorance, of the facts or merely wish- ed to smirch n noble reputation. So far from being a Puritan was Luther that be enjoyed coarse language that twad esrp5tessed the op s pleasing to the Lord. So coarse was it indeed that if it should find itself into this collie -non the writer would probably be arrested and the paper suppressed. Re was fond of liquor and on his travels complained oodif lnallihe did not find enough ty. There is, of coarse, no evidence that he was atira int dated, 'fent u;mde - edly he was merry with wine often enough. Rev. Abrams carries his defence of Luther so far that he is able to say "Were the gentleman here to -day he would scarcely be tolerated in any Protestant sect, and would be accus- ed of the vilest heresy. He would be playing checkers in jail with fellow prisoners." Even Luther's attitude toward the Scriptures is not what his enemies have attributed to him for we find him writing "The book that does not teach Christ is not apostolic, were St. Peter or St. Paul its -writer. On the other hands, the book that preaches Christ is apostolic were its author Judas, Ananias, Pilot or Herod . the Epistle of James is a veritable epistle of straw for there is nothing evangelical in it." Luther rejected the Book of Revela- tion, the Epistle to the Hebrews and Jude and several of the Old Testa- ment books, particularly the proph- ets: "Without any doubt the proph- ets had studied the books of Moses, and filled with the spirit of God, they committed their good thoughts to writing. But this is not to say that these doctors, scrutinizing the Scrip- tures, did not sometimes find wood, hay and stubble, and not always gold, silver or diamonds." In the case of Philip the Magnaini- nmous, Landgrave of Hesse, Luther showed a kind of wisdom that has gone out of fashion, or at least is not publicly defended, by his successors. Philip fell in love with is young girl, and Slough he had a wife, proposed to add the girl to his establishment es a second wife. He knew that Luther had condemned divrorce, but he appealed to him to prepare a de- fence for the new relationship. Both Luther and Melanchthon, another holy man, came to his rescue and set up a very good case for the bigamy. They said that though God in His infinite wisdom had approved monogamy as the ideal for human beings, there were obviously cases which would prove exceptions to the rule and that the influential Landgrave's was un- doubtsdly one of them. Luther also advised Henry VIII to commit bigamy rather than divorce Catherine of Ar- agon, but in both cases his advice was private, and he was furious when at length the facts came to light. It was in the course of correspondence in this matter that Luther wrote the extraordinary sentence: "What is it, if for the good and the sake of the Christian church one should tell a good strong lie?" 'It seems generally agreed that despite the uxoriousness of his later life, his strong interest in women and his disposition to coarse conversation about them Luther's personal morals were far superior to those of his age. Mr. Abrams, after some calculations, seta them down as 'being 99.44 par cent. pure. Luther admits that in the years in which he was vowed to celi- bacq he was tormented with yearn- ings, and came to regret having en- tered a monastery long before his break with the Pope. After his em- ergence he advocated marriage, urgg- ing reluctant friends to ' take the plunge. After his own marriage he was wont to deticribe in language which we would now find sheek1m? the satisfactions he had tolled in the holly state. He admitted that the wife Dao ^ eagam, eventually took, a nun whom he had helped escape, despite the fact that the act was then an offence punish- able by death --was not his first choice. But she made him as ad- mirable mate, and we never have supposed that he was an easy man to live with. But there were moments when Kia enthusiasm for the institution seemedl somewhat dampened as when he wrote: "The reproduction of man- kind is a great marvel and mystery- 'Had ystery'Had God consulted me in this manner I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay, in the way Adam was fashioned." One quality in his wife which he particu- larly admired was her ability to make good beer. He wrote to ll alanchthoim that Katy was brewing Wittenberg beer with which to regale him when he visited them. To leis wife on hie journeys he would write complaining about the beer and wine he met, some- times instructing her to send bine come of his own special stock. Wbile at home the town council of Torga us- ed to keep him pretty well supe lied, and the Elector John Frederick of Saxony, who understood his tastes, used to see that he did not want. That he was never averse to a little gaiety is revealed in one of his lat- ters: "What harm does a little pol- lity do? The beer is good, the maids fair, the boys young. The students are so merry that I regret that may health prevents me being oftener with them." We congratulate the Rev. Abrams on having done a corn - lath job off vindicating Martin
