HOW HUGHESES CELEBRATED.
When Republican Victory Was in
Sight They Had Great Time.
Here's how Mr. Hughes and his
family received the news of Republican
"victory," according to the
Charleston American:
New York, Nov. 7.?At 9 o'clock
tonight Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes
ran to the side of her husband in
their suite in the Hotel Astor, threw
her arms around his neck and kissed
him. She repeated it three times.
"I'm so glad, so glad," she cried.
"You are the president of the United
States."
The little woman was weeping like
a girl. Her husband, for the first
time in the evening, showed traces of
m K\r VllC
einouuii pru>uivcu uivic uj uu
life's fervor than by his own sense
of victory?placed his arms around
her and told her to be calm.
The candidate's three daughters?
Elizabeth. Helen and Catherine?
were well-nigh hysterical. The candidate's
son. Charles Evans, Jr.,
shook his hand wildly and placed his
arm about the quiet man's shoulder.
Dr. Colin Carter, Mrs. Hughes's
brother, -was boyish in his delight
and attempted no concealment of it.
Miss Dorothy Radley, granddaughter
of William C. Muschenheim, president
of the hotel, entered the suite
bearing a huge basket containing
100 American beauty roses.
From the adjoining rooms there
came a roar that was .nothing less
- than a wild song of victory. On the
roof of the hotel a huge American
flag has been raised and from the
corners fierce searchlights played upon
it.
Over the stone doors of the hotel
an enormous electric sign had been
hung and suddenly it flared alight
with the letters H-U-G-H-E-S. From
y the street below there came a riot of
clamor. There arose a thousand
N calls for "Hughes, Hughes."
Thus the news came to Charles
Evans Hughes. And for all the emotion
he displayed?savfe for the moment
when his wife wept happily before
his eyes?he might have yet
been the taciturn justice of the supreme
court of the United States.
In rooms nearby the one he occupied
men were compiling tables.
When the news came that the New
York World, President Wilson's personal
organ, conceded the election of
the Republican candidate, the maddened
men in the nearby rooms fell
back in their chairs. It was for them,
now, to merely figure up the number
of electoral votes. Further conjectures
were unnecessary.
The three daughters sat at a window
looking at the bulletin board.

to cheir father.
But the more they raved, the wilder
grew the excitement; the more
studious became the face of the former
justice. Once in a while his
strong (teeth gleamed as his chances
grew more roseate. Now and then
he nodded his approval of the returns
from Pennsylvania, New York,
Maine. Illinois, Massachusetts and
other great States. But he left it.
for the others to enthuse. A high
color in his cheeks was the only outward
manifestation that he heard the
acclaim of the throngs below or
knew of the news that was pouring
into the next room.
How Teddy Felt About It.
Here's Teddy's views on the "victory,"
according to the New York
World:
Oyster Bay, N. Y., Nov. 7.?Beaming
with pleasure, Col. Roosevelt tonight
in his home at Sagamore Hill
joyfully discussed the election returns
and had the following to say:
"In view of the latest returns I
have received it appears Mr. Hughes
is elected. I wish to express my profound
gratitude as an American
proud of his country. That the
American people have repudiated the
man who coined the phrase about
this country that it is "Too Proud to
Fight' and whose administration had
done so much to relax the fibre of the
American conscience and to dull the
sense of honorable obligations in the
American people.
"We are all of us sincerely to be
congratulated on the victory of Mr.
Hughes. Let me add, in view of certain
letters and telegrams which already
have begun to come in to me,
that I will not make any recommendations
to Mr. Hughes for appointments,
nor any requests about legislation."
Col. Roosevelt waiting for the returns
passed the evening at home
with Mrs. Roosevelt. There were
no visitors.
Contemporary.
"Miss Ann Teek has had her house
furnished in colonial style."
"Well, she ought to feel thoroughly
at home amid such.surroundings."

DOX'TS FOR AUTOISTS.
A Few Rules for Preserving the Car
and for Safe Driving.
Af Knobloch, of Indianapolis, gives
a series of "Don'ts" for automobile
drivers. They are as follows:
Don't put oil in the engine without
first making sure that it is free
from dirt and lint.
Don't race the engine when it is
not drawing the car. There is no
worse abuse.
Don't neglect to keep the radiator
filled with water. Also use a good
anti-freeze solution in cold weather.
Don't neglect your tires, use the
pressure guage and maintain between
70 and 80 pounds pressure.
Don't fail to inspect the level of
liquid in the storage battery every
two weeks.
Don't drive with your feet on the
clutch or brake pedals.
Don't let your car stand with headlight
full on. It is unnecessary and
it runs your battery down.
Don't drive fast on slippery streets.
Don't drive with fully retarded
spark.
Don't start motor with wide open
throttle or advanced spark.
Don't neglect the lubrication of
your car. Watch your pressure
guage.
Don't drive fast around turns or
over rough roads.
Don't apply brakes suddenly, except
in cases of emergency.
Don't attempt to shift into reverse
gear when going ahead.
Don't allow your clutch to engage
suddenly.
Don't drive on crowded thoroughfares
until you thoroughly master
the operation and driving of your
car.
Don't attempt to start motor with
any of the transmission gears in
mesh. Have gear shift lever in neutral.
Don't leave your ignition switch
"on" when the motor is not running.
Don't tamper with your carburetor
unless you know it is out of adjustment,
and not even then unless you
know just what you are doing.
Don't fail to tighten up spring clip
nuts at end of 800 or l,000^miles.
Don't fail to tighten up all body
bolts at end of every 800 to 1,000
miles.
The Horse Xot Extinct.
Prophecies are always interesting
but often fail of fulfillment. JLong
range prophecies are the safer, and
the greater the range, the more confidently
may be stated the particular
prediction of the moment.
This is suggested by the present
high value of the farm horse which,
according to a long range propnecy
made upon the advent of the automobile,
should now be a drag upon the
market. The reverse is true, so another
prophecy has failed of fulfillment
and another prophet is classed
amongst those without honor. The
automobile is now almost universal?
promises soon to be universal. The
automobile plow is fast extending its
sphere. With increased simplicity of
construction and lowering of cost,
the farm tractor will eventually rank
with its city cousin, the motor car,
as a competitor of man's most faithful
and efficient friend?the horse.
But in spite of the number of city
cars and in spite of the fast increasing
number of farm tractors, the
horse is still here, and to venture a
long prophecy will always be here.
No matter how luxurious in appointment
the automobile manufacturer
may make his motor car: no matter
? * J U /\*t? /\ rvi ^ V* n
I1UW Sllliyie ctliU liW" ciinJlciiL LJLIC
farm tractor may become, the horse
is not doomed to be classed with prehistoric
animals but will continue to
aid man in his struggle towards
things that are better.
The horse and man have been
identified since time began, and the
centaurs roamed the mountains of
Thessaly. In that mythical halfhorse
and half man race is found the
symbol of their identity. Since those
days man has advanced far but always
his faithful friend kept pace
with him. The horse has drawn the
plough and without him the world's
harvest would not have been. He
is charged with his master into the
hells of battlefields and has offered
his life as a sacrifice without murmur.
The horse is as courageous as his
master, as affectionate as a woman,
as faithful as a child. The motor
car has not driven him from the
hearts or the streets of the city.
Neither will the automobile plow
drive him from the pleasant fields of
the country and as long as man remains
on earth, so long will the
horse remain with him.?Asheville
Citizen.
Going the Limit.
"Did lie tell you that you are the
only girl he has ever loved?"
"Yes, and he went further than
that."
"He did? What else did he say?"
"He said that I was the only girl
he ever intended to love."?Life.
ARTIFICIAL MILK AT LAST.
Chinese Firm Manufacture it From
Keans.
Milk is being made from beans in
China. This bean milk is not to be
confused with the product known as
chiang vu, a fermented sauce made
from beans which is well known both
as the soy of the Japanese and as
one of the constituents of the famous
sauces of Europe. Bean milk is
made from small yellow beans, the
same variety from which the Chinese
bean curd and chiang yu soy are
made. The process appears to be a
very simple one. The beans are
soaked and then crushed between
two stones. The crushed mass is allowed
to run off into a tub and is
then strained through cheesecloth
and diluted with water and boiled.
After boiling it is again strained
and the white milk run off into bot
ties and sold to the factory's customers.
An analysis of the beancured
milk shows that it has a specific
grafity of 1.020 and a fat content
of 3.125, contrasted with a specific
gravity of 1.029 and a fat content
of 3.9 for good average cow's
milk in America. The present bean
milk factory is a small one. The
proprietors report that they do all
their work at night in order to have
their milk fresh for delivery the following
morning. They begin their
work about 10 o'clock. The milk is
ready and bottled by daylight, when
it is sent out by coolies to the various
customers.
The room where the milk is made
shows that no complicated machinery
is necessary. At one end of the room
are two of the small stone mills in
which the beans are ground. Large
numbers of bottles are arranged on
a rack near the ball, clean and ready
to receive the morning's supply of
milk. At the opposite end of the
room are three wooden vats built into
a concrete foundation, which proved
to be a furnace. The prepared
product is poured into these vats and
boiled, the furnace being supplied
with fuel from a hole in the-outside
wall. On either side are two earthenware
jars into which the boiled
product is poured and from which it
is allowed to run off through stop
cocks into the bottles. The manufacturers
of the bean milk appear to
be endeavoring to conduct their factory
along hygienic lines. It is reported
that they invite inspection of
their factory and express a desire to
carry out the suggestions made by
the inspecting physician; these suggestions
related principally to the
sterilization of the bottles before allowing
the milk to run into them.
The new product is very cheap as
compared to cow's milk. The factory
undertakes to supply one pint each
morning for approximately 50 cents
gold a month.
Autumn.
Who has not seen the fall of the leaf
And felt tlie pain of languid grief
Since summer's gone
And left us alone
Without a tune, at the fall of the
leaf?
Who has not seen the moon at night
As thru the clouds she takes her
flight,
Play hide and seek
With paling cheek?
Who has not seen all this at night?
; Who does not know at the fall of the
i
lear
The heart feels like a drying sheaf?
That death with its sting
Is a comely thing,
In autumn at the fall of the leaf?

LATIN-AMERICAN MARKETS.
Supplies in Special Demand in South
America.
Europe, prior to the war, was a
large buyer of American apples "and
pears, writes W. E. Aughinbaugh, in
Leslie's. This market is closed now,
but there are excellent opportunities
for our farmers to dispose of these
fruits in Latin-American markets, especially
Brazil, Uruguay and Argentine.
These countries were formerly
large purchasers from Australia
and New Zealand fruit growers, but
owing to the scarcity of ships cannot
obtain their supplies. Argentine
and Brazil alone consume about 1,250,000
boxes of apples yearly, and
about 300,000 boxes of pears. We
have refrigerator ships from New
York to the ports of Rio de Janeiro,
Montivideo and Buenos Aires, and I
suggest that fruit farmers consider
these markets in which to dispose of
their crop. Goods can be sold at the
docks in the above named towns. Potatoes,
cabbage, beets, turnips,
onions and the hardier vegetables
are also required in these countries,
the demands formerly being supplied
by Holland and Germany.
One of the largest wholesale
houses in Buenos Aires has its buyer
here who is desirous of purchasing
cottons, woolens, dry goods and toilet
preparations. This concern has seven
travelers who cover the entire
Argentine and Uruguay.
