It Is hardly necessary to give re 4pt for tomatoos, but If you have iever tried tne lard metnoa. perhaps would be well to try It now. In the Iays when lard wag not so high It wns n easy and inexpensive way to have -esh tomatoes when the snow waa fly- lig. Now It Is not quite in lnexpen- ve, hut even now it win mane winter Iimatoes cheaper than hothouse toma iei?. and a whole lot better. Select very fine smooth tomatoes with skins unbroken. This last Is im peratlve or you will have a failure. Pour melted paraffine In the hollow left by stem. Melt a layer of lard in the bot tom of a stone Jar. When cold place your tomatoes on It, not allowing them to touch. Pour softened lard aver them and place where this layer will harden. Continue till the top of the jar Is reached, cover with a paraffined paper and a plate weighted, and place in a dry cool place. To use, wipe off the lard, scald and remove skin, and serve aa any fresh tomato. Canning1 Tomatoes. If you have trouble in keeping canned tomatoes try this method. Select small tomatoes that will go Into the cans w-hole, peel only enough to fill two cans at a time. Have a kettle full of to matoes simmered to a pulp and strained. When this pulp is boiling drop In your tomatoes and cook until tender, lift carefully Into the cans, fill with the boiling Juice and seal in the usual way. These retain their flavor better than If salt is added while oooklng. If the pantry Is large nough It will save time and temper to go over the list of spices, sugar, vinegar, etc., that will be used during the catsun mak ing and preserving season and see that everything Is of tha best and that the supply Is adequate. It is no economy to buy bargains In spices. The best Is the only rule. Brown sugar and white phould be bought In quantities to last through tho season. The different kinds of vinegurs carefully labeled. Tar ragon vinegar and dill vinegar can both be made at home by slmnly boiling the leaves In the vinegar. All these things if done when there la a rift tn the bus housekeeper's days will save her muo worry and loss of time, and that Is the great thing In doing housework. Make your head save your feet Is one of the wise old sayings that our grandmothers have handed down to us, but most of us seem to think that means "get out of as much as you can.

I do not think aha ever did anything well. She would much better get her mind on her work and get It done and out of the wav and then read or studv. but I have shrewd suspicion that she was deceiv ing herself Into the belief that she was not neglecting the work while she was cultivating her mind, and perhaps she felt a llttlervanltv over her struggle not to drop out of the literary lists, else how do we come to hear of her?

Hot Springs, Va.. Aug. 25. Wlde Tead opposition to the reelection of innon aa speaker of the house of repre- ntatives is reported from nearly every ction of the country by visitors to cretary Taft. While there la nothing r. Taft could possibly do, either to em the rising tide of anti-Cannon feel- g or to aid In the movement, his lends are foreed to reallxe that Can 's la one of the heaviest nuroens the publican rarty is compelled to bear tola campaign. It la apparent to every one that an ectton which results in placing lart the White House and at the uma ne places Cannon once more In a po- 'lon of power to work agalnat the Melee and principle of government itch Tift la pledged te cphold would an absurdity.

In addition to this, a fight on Cannon is to be made in his own district. In which his antagonist will have the sym pathy If not tho active assistance of progressive Republicans everywhere. Organized labor will concentrate Its forces In the district and will endeavor to prevent Cannon's return to the house. The fight Is more serious than any the speaker has encountered In many years. xwo years ago it was declared that labor was fighting Cannon, and his elec tion then was construed to mean that his hold upon the diRtrict could not be broken. But as a fact there was no fight two years ago. Tho Cannon ma chine was strong enough to control the! selection of a Democratic candidate against him. and the man chosen was so closely affiliated with the Cannon or ganization that virtually no attempt was made to elect him. West Against the Speaker. Republican members of the house who are planning the defeat for the speakership are not takinir into account the possibility of hi defeat t the polls. They are assuming that he will be reelected, and that, being electel, he will be assured of all the support which reactionary Influence can bring to him, and of tho strongest efforts of ino various men wnw have been asso- I ciatea wun mm in his control of the house. It Is premised that the great ma jority of the representation of western States in the house will be opposed to Cannon, and that his chances of election will depend upon the support he obtains from the great eastern ftAlptrariunn a those of Pennsylvania. Burton Is Taft's Kind. In the discussion of the situation as It relates to Cannon and the speaker ship, Theodore Burton of Ohio is spoken of as the man who should ho chosen in Cannon s place. Burton and Taft would be In entire sympathy. There would bo harmony between the administration and the house of representatives, such an has not existed since Cannon has been speaker. I Mr. Taft hns been informed of the In tensity of the anti-Cannon feeling, and reirainea irom making anv com ment. It Is Impossible to suppose, how ever that one holding his views, and as familiar as he has been with the steady opposition offered by Cannon to every progressive suggestion made by President Roosevelt, can have anv sym pathy with Cannon or with the methods he represents. Anttcnnon men are so confident of this that thev do nnt ti,aitot ...... Taft a name In pushing their fight against the speaker or to make cnpltnl out of the perfectly obvious circum stance that the election of Cannon would be In Itself a partial defeat of all the purposes for which -rntt ho. i nominated and will be elected. Home of the men Cannon In. mii.i upon to carry out his plans for serving ' the special Interests and opposing the 1 policies of the president are also marked for defeat In the coming elec tion.

Bulletin No. 10, appearing in the Telegram of August 8, and in the Oregonian and Journal, August 8 and 9, showed the advantage of Tungsten lamps over other forms of illumina tion. It was based on a very careful calculation of FACTS as to gas arcs, and the cost of a 200-candlepower Tungsten arc per month, as shown therein, INCLUDED THE COST OF RENEWAL. COMPARISON WITH GAS In comparing Tungsten lamp with the cost of gas arc, the consumption of both was based on actual tests. Gas arc catalogs, showing the consumption of gas, base their figures on a gas pressure of yz inches, and a consumption of about 16 cubic feet per hour. As a matter of fact, tests in Portland show that the gas pressure is considerably higher than this, and that THE ACTUAL CONSUMPTION OF THE GAS ARC RUNS FROM 24 TO 28 CUBIC FEET PER HOUR. Even a superficial observation of the operation of the two types of illuminants will show that the gas arc is also sub ject to depreciation, as may be frequently seen by the man tles bec&ming black in part or in whole; the less of light from this cause being far greater than from the blackening of electric light bulbs. Gas mantles are also SOMEWHAT brittle in their nature, as any user caaMestify who has had occasion to handle or renew them. For the benefit of consumers, the following table is repub lished. Gas Af.
