BACKACHE
Wonderful relief from pain
Backache is one of those wearying
complaints which bind all their victims
together with a common bond of
misery. And when any one sufferer
from backache finds a sure remedy,
fellowship prompts the quick report
of that discovery to others.' Here's a
woman who has her friend to thank for
knowledge of a remarkably successful
treatment. Now gratitude compels
her, in turn, to pass along the good
news to you.
"1 am writing to tell you of the great
benefit I have received from Krusehen
Salts. My friend, Mrs. H., had received
so much benefit that she begged me
to give Kruschen a trial, although at
first I was doubtful, because I had
tried so many things. At last, however
I tried some of her Kruschen, and,
feeling hopeful, I purchased a bottle,
and I can honestly say that before I
had finished the bottle my backache
was gone. I have suffered for years
with kidney trouble and dreadful
headachesaand now to be free from
the pain altogether is wonderful."—

HOUSEHOLD DISCOVERIES
To prevent the water in the refri-
gerator from overflowing, place the
dishpan under the refrigerator. Each
time you need the pan for dish -wash-
ing, uee a small WW1 until the pan is
ready to , be replaced. The pan is
then emptied three times a day.
e."
The coffee can with tight -fitting
covers, if well aired to banish the
coffee aroma, make good containers
for cereals, cracker or bread crumbs,
seedless raisins, shelled nuts and
whole spices. They protect their con-
tents from dampness and insec-,s and
look very trim sitting in a row with
paper labels pasted on to signify the
contents pf each. A pound tin will
hold a package of most cereals.
If desired, the tins can be enamel-
led to match the kitchen trimming;
also, waterproof labels may be cut
from wide adhesive tare and the name
of contents written all in waterproof
ink.

-Jo
England where thee would :ea, AA
spies. This was dpue by the lesele of
false passperts lashieli guaranteed that
the „spies were, reputable American
citizens. Carl Hans LeelY, one ef the
most notorious of GerMan spies, was
thus enabled, to reach England where
his careee was cut short by a fixing
squad one bleak, but 11011, we hope,
too bleak, winter morning. Boy -Ed's
fertile brain is also .said to have de-
vised a scheme whereby German war-
ships at sea were supplied by the
vessels of neutral nations, but this
menace was ended, of course, when
there ceased to 'be any .Germen 'war-
ships at sea.
Just what Boy -Ed did is not likely
to become known, for the present
German Government has refused to
publish the secret documents cover-
ing the campaign of sabotage it con-
ducted in neutral and enemy coun-
tries, and these acAtivities in Canada
and the United States were under his
direction. was also• supposed to
have tried to foment an insurrection
in Mexico. We may at least take it
for granted that he was extremely
busy and that he' recognized no laws
of hospitality where the interests of
Germany were concerned. Naturally
he denied all the charges, made a -
against hive but his denials lacked both
conviction and suavity. He became
embroiled with news,papers, an occu-
pation traditionally profitless, and
gradually American public opinion
centred on him rather than on Bern-
storff as an enemy within the gates.
They were demands for his recall and
they became more furious 'at the
time the Luisitania was sunk, for Boy -
Ed lacked the good sense to remain
silent in this crisis. In the end,
Washington gave him and Von Papen
their passports, and they left the
United States to an accompaniment of
cat -calls and cries of "Attaboy, Ed!"
The United States did not make
public the precise grounds of the de-
portation but merely announced that
the two had been guilty of "improper
activities in naval and military mat-
ters." Through the rest of the war,
eve presume, Boy -Ed conducted him-
self like a patriotic German though
we do not remember luaving heard
just what he did. He might have
done service in Turkey for he was the
son of 'a Turkish merchant, his mother
having been a popular German author-
ess. It is a curious kind of par-
entage and it may be that Boy -Ed
will be remembered' as the most il-
lustrious specimen of it to have fig-
ured in world affairs. In 1919 he
wrote a book about the 'MT called
"The Plotter," and in this his war-
time experiences in Washington were
recounted. Apparently in time he
forgave the land that had hustled him
out so unceremoniously and express-
ed a desire to revisit it. But the
'United States refused to bury the
hatchet so far as Boy -Ed was con-
cerned and would not permit his en-
try, though his wife whom he mar-
ried in 1920, returned to her native
land several times. She had been
formerly Miss Virginia Mackay -
Smith, daughter of the late Bishop
Mackay -Smith, of the Episcopal dio-
cese of Pennsylvania. It has been
noted 'before that bishops' daughter:,
sometimes pick up some queer hus-
bands. •
Boy -Ed joined the German naval
service when he was 19 and became
in time the chief lieutenant of V07,1
Tirpitz when he launched his big
navy scheme. It was not by accident
that he was sent te the United States,
for if great events had not been ex-
pected there, a man of Boy -Ed's abil-
ity and originality could hardly have
been spared. Once in the United
States he proceeded to Americanize
himself so far as appearances went
for he shamed off his Prince Henry
whiskers and became outwardly indis-
tinguishable, from any other stalwart
young American with a military bear-
ing. After the war he entered the
commercial shipping business. His
death was brought about through a
riding accident, and it is interesting
to note that riding and plotting were
Bay -Ed's favorite pastimes.
When Cleaning Brass.
'When cleaning brass door knockers
door knobs and drawer handles, place
around the fixture a thin cardboard
that has been cut to fit it closely.
This prevents the polish from being
srnearet over the wood and does away
with an extra cleaning job. After
once obtaining the outline of the fix-
ture, it is a simple matter to cut any
number of cardboards for future use.

When Making Pieced Quilts.
To make a pieced quilt without
quilting frames—to use up pieces of
material not large enough for other
purposes—get plain chambray or tur-
key twill or any material that is the
same on both sides, and sew squares
corner to corner on one side, then
turn the quilt over and sew similiar
squares on the single material on the
wrong side. Any contrasting colors
will make a pretty spread—and there
will be no padding required: The
quilt is lighter to handle, too, when
it requires laundering.

Wallpaper Books for Scrap Books.
If you should have on hand an old
wallpaper book, do not throw it away
if there are children in the family.
Use it as a scrap book. If it is a
large one, so much the better, as
large pictures then can be pasted in
it.
There is fun and education for the
children when they make a scrap
book. Allow them to cut out pictures
of interest dealing with different coun-
tries, keep the pictures dealing with
each country together and add to
each group as new and interesting
pictures are found.
Start one page with a house, then
have the children furnish each room
in a house with pictures of furniture.

DEATH SUMMONS BOY -ED
NOTED GERMAN PLOTTER
Our readers will join with us, we
are sure, in observing a ten-minuto
silence in memory of Captain Boy -Ed,
whose death is announced from lelam-
burg. Our emotions are now suf-
ficiently under control to permit us
to say a few words about Captain
Boy -Ed, whose name first came into
world-wide prominence some time
after the outbreak of the World War.
He was then naval attache to the
German Embassy at Washington. He
MS hardly less vocal than Bern-
storff, the German Ambassador, in de-
fending his country's cause, and prob-
ably a good deal more active than his
chief in promoting it. Captain Boy -Ed
was, in fact, a man of deeds rather
than words. His partner in these ac-
tivities, which was forbidden by the
laws of neutrality, was Captain
Franz Von Papen, the military at-
tache. Not content with writing let-
ters to the newspapers, they sought
to help their fatherland by more sen-
sational means. To this end they be-
gan to organize various anti-British
organizations, providing them with
money. They also collected some
patriotic criminals whom they sent
on missions of sabotage to Canada,
though we are not aware that they
were able to do any particular dam-
age. It was said that they spent not
less than $27,000,000 in the course
of this campaign which eveotually
led to their recall by thetiFerman
Government.
If we are not mistaken the late John
Rathom, at that time editor of the
Providence Journal, was chieflly in-,
strunnental in exposing Boy -Ed and
Von Papen. Ire was no doubt great-
ly helped by the British secret ser-
vice and his publication of articles in
the Journal, which were widely copied
throughout the 'United States,. had a
good, deal to do with provolang the
slaw American wrath against the
German propagandists. Real evidence
against the pair of Washington plot.
ters was found in, the confession of
Richard Peter Steglpr, a German re..
servist. He said that Iloy4d was
the director of a Aug whose biasiriete
was to get Gentian restervists into
Md.
