"How's that?" "The Janitor is now the. superinten dent." "Good work!" declared the Junior partner. "But why didn't you make him superintendent In the first place?"

Gives Product That in January Will Supply Spring Acid" Other Ways and Modifications Also Explained. BY LILIAN TINGLE. RHUBARB is one of the few mate rials for which the "cold water, method" of canning is usually sue-! cessfuL Of course rhubarb may be canned by the usual "open pan." or "cooked in the Jar" methods, but the simplicity of the cold water or boiling water canning is attractive and with ordinary care the results are generally good. First wipe the rhubarb, if very ten der, or "string" it a little if necessary, and cut it into le'ngths to fit your Jars. Have the jars, lids and everything that touches the rhubarb sterilized in the usual manner. Next rinse the rhubarb under the faucet if you are sure of the purity of your water, or in boiled and cooled water, if necessary. Pack close ly into the Jars, fill to overflowing with boiled water, being sure there are no air bubbles, and seal the jars at once. That is all. Be sure there are no leaks and inspect the rhubarb from time to time. Usually "cold water rhubarb" or "boiling water rhubarb" put up as above will keep well into January or February, when one is glad of the "Spring acid" of an early rhubarb pie. As it is neither cooked nor sweetened for canning, it should be used, when ofn, as if it were fresh, and will need cooking and sugar to taste. Canned rhubarb done by the "open pan" method also requires very care fully sterilized cans. The rhubarb is prepared and cut in Inch lengths and quickly cooked until tender, with or without sugar, in an ordinary preserv ing kettle or "baked" in a casserole. The hot sterilized jars are then filled tO HVPrfln tner .-!.. V. i . . r .lu 11UL Bigwea rhubarb and sealed at once, with the u&uai precautions.

ONE may wear a corsage bouquet into the sea this year' the sort of flowers that thrive In salt water, for they are made of rubber and will look as gay and fresh when they come out of the briny deep as when they went in. There are, violets, roses and gar denias, in natural colorings, bearing a surprising resemblance to the real flowers at a little distance; and green stems and leaves are not forgotten. A smart bathing dress of black pussy-willow taffeta. Just completed, has a skirt with two ruffled tunic and a bodice opening in a deep "V over a chemisette of white machine em broidery in close pattern. Into the wide girdle Is tucked a' deep red rose and the shirred black taffetta cap also bears a red rose at one side. Another bathing dress of gunmetal gray pussy willow taffeta has countless ruffles piped with white. . Against the gray taffeta corsage a cluster of rubber violets is exceedingly effective. Yellbw and burnt onion motor veils are as fashionable as yellow and burnt onion parasols. The smart motor veil is a high affair, at least two and a half yards long and finished with a hemstitched hem two inches deep. A skimp veil can spoil the effect of the most expensive motor bonne and coat. Some women sew small snap fasteners to the brim of the motor bonnet and also to several veils, so that a change may be effected quickly when the cos tume calls for a particular color, or when one veil has become damp or dusty midway of the . trip and one wishes to freshen up a bit before en tering a restaurant. " Callot Soeurs have brought out an 1850 reincarnation that is proving pop ular, for several duplicates of the model have been ordered through the firm who exhibited the frock in this country. Above a skirt of six flounce, alternating black and magenta pussy willow taffeta, is a bona fide "basque," fitted with darts and buttoning straight down the front. The three upper flounces of the skirt are distended on hoops and with the costume goes a tilted Watteau hat of black straw, trimmed with a long black velvet rib bon streamer and a red' rose matching the magenta silk in the frock.

It is not necessary to mi a Dig vase with an elaborate dis Play of blossoms especially when flowers are high, in price. A single rose, a ' couple of chrysanthemums. three golden yellow jonquils, with a Dit or rem or asparagus, will work wonders in adding distinction to the dinner table, set out with spotless cioth and shining silverware. Just now flowers are at their cheap est and 15 cents twice a week will pur chase enough to make .a charming cen terpiece. Vases and jars of various sizes, shapes and colorings should be kept on hand, and these will add their not inconsiderable measure of charm In combination with the flowers. A bunch of Spring violets In one of the little brass baskets which have tall handles makes a dainty table center on a white embroidered centerpiece, yellow jonquils in a tall, slender brass tankard breathe the essence of Spring. Lilies of the valley in their spiked green leaves are loveliest in a glass vase. Pale pink tulips in a Jug of white and blue pottery are something to conjure by. Lilacs are exquisite in a Jar of ivory white plaster or in an iridescent vase that catches the lilac tones of the blossoms. Pink roses or red roses best become a tall vase of clear or Iridescent glass. Tea roses will look well in the blue and white jug aforementioned. Pansies and nasturtiums should be arranged in a low bowl, with overhanging leaves around the edge. Daisies should bloom in a pale green or brass bowL And so on. through the year. Even the humble pink clover has its timely place on the table of the woman who loves flowers and there are great possibili ties in pussy willow sprays.

BERLIN. April SO. (Special.) Na poleon, Frederick the Great, and other giants of their era have been immor talized in drama and opera, and now George Washington has joined their ranks. His name gives the title to a new grand opera Just finished by a German composer and librettist, Her ren Otto Wolter and George Hunold. This opera is dedicated "in friendship to the free American people." and will, it Is hoped, have, an early first produc tion in New York. The opera deals, of course, with the American Revolution, includes 'Washington's famed "crossing the Delaware," and ends with his ac ceptance of the Presidency from thou sands of his adoring compatriots. New Boot Has Long Sharp Toe and Curved Heel Slnbblneai Is One Thins Footwear May Not Have and Retain Claim to Smartnraa. ew Pumpa With Long Line. STUBBINESS Is the one thing that a boot or slipper may not have now and retain any claim to smartness and correctness of style. All the lines of footwear suggest slimness, narrowness, the sort of foot that has ilvivn h,n associated with patrician birth and the oiuest oi oiue bood. Everybody knows that a long, nar row shoe makes the foot look better and feel better than a short, thick shoe yet the hideous "bulldog" shoe could be ordered one or two sizes smaller than any other sort of shoes with a toe of average length. Now the long, narrow toe Is the thing and women are willing to buy footwear one or two sizes too long In order to make the most or narrowness and slenderness of effect. A new pump is an up-to-date model of patent leather and has the extreme ly long, pointed toe of the moment, the moaerateiy nigh curved heel and the small, wedge-shaped tongue which gives the Colonial effect. New for Spring also are buttoned boots of white buckskin with curved heels, long, pointed toes and very light turned soles, which will be In keeping with the very dainty and airy effect of smart lingerie irocks. 1 .

Mailing Tube Makes Ideal Centerpiece Holder Convenient Device for "Putting Away" Laces and Embroidery That Won't Kold May Be Made Easily. EMBROIDERED or lace-trimmed cen terpieces should be ironed flat and rolled up. not folded, for putting away. If desired a very little boiled starch may be added to the last rinsing water, but the centerpiece will look handsom er If simply wrung out of hot water and ironed while wet with a very hot iron. Several centerpieces may be rolled at once over a length of broomstick or any other stick of suitable siee and length. Newspapers made into a long, smooth roll will answer . if there is nothing else handy. A most attractive receptacle for the safekeeping of centerpieces may be made with an ordinary mailing tube a yard long, one yard of flowered cre tonne and several yards of No. 4 ribbon at 5 or 6 cents the yard. Cut off the four corners of the square of cretonne and bind all around with ribbon. Use the corner pieces to cover the ends of the mailing tube, pasting the material to the tube with library paste. Paste one edge of the square along the' tube, roll over until the tube is completely hidden and tack in place. The cutoff corners at either end will fit nicely around the covered ends of the tuhe. At the opposite edge of the cretonne square sew short lengths of ribbon, and when the centerpieces have been laid on the square, begin at the tube and roll up, tying the finished roll of cretonne and centerpiece within by means of the ribbon ends. Or, Instead of using ribbons to tie up the xoll, at tach metal snap-fasteners to the cre tonne in such manner that the roll may be snap-buttoned together. FRANCE PLANNING PARKS Society Starts Move to Preserve Some of Xoted Scenery. PARIS, April 30 (Special.) The Association des Pares Nationaux has undertaken a task which all lovers of French scenery will appreciate the preservation of some of the most beau tiful tracts of country in France from the ugliness and degradation which fol low the advance of civilization by con verting them into National Parks. Al ready a park called the Park of La BANDITS KILL OFFICERS Tribes AVage Battle With British Troops on Sudan Borders. KHARTOUM, April 30. (Special.) A recent fight with outlaws on the At bara River. SO miles southeast of Ged aref, resulted In the death of Major James Conry, of the Connaught Rangers- For some time measures have had to be taken against the wild bands who Infest this part of the Sudan, far away from railway communications and troop centers. There is no doubt that brigandage and slave-trading flourish in some of the remote dis tricts, in spite of the measures adopted by General Sir Reginald Wlngate. The center of the disturbing influ ence lies on the Abyssinian border of the Sudan, from the point where the River Atbara enters the Amhara dis trict of Abyssinia to the valleys where the Blue Nile and other southern rivers cross the frontier. Having no effective central control applied to them, the border tribes of Abyssinia have taken to organized brigandage. These tribesmen cross into the Sudan with impunity In search of loot and slaves, and sharp skirmishes occur with the native troops. The latter manage to keep their districts fairly clear, but not without the loss now and again of a party and from time to time of a gallant officer serving his period of two years away from all the paths of civilization. There are many British Sudanese now in slavery in Abyssinia, far beyond the possibility of rescue, and the raids into Anglo-Egyptian ter ritory from time to time secure for the triDesmen many fresh batches. A large tract on the Abyssinian border has been depopulated in consequence, and as a result the raiders are com pelled to come further into the Anglo Egyptian Sudan. It Is understood that the question of a new railway has been discussed and that it is probable arrangements will be made t& carry the present line from Sennar, on the Blue Nile, south of Khartoum, to the borders of Abyssinia No doubt such a railway would aid in pacifying the lawless district.
