THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW To prevent rugs from slipping on ! polished floors, sew a piece of rubber j on the under sfae at each end or a t*' i angular piece under each corner. Old ! rain-shoes may be cut up for this puv ppose. ?.. i If annoyed ?>y sators dropping cut of cha?r or table legs, remove the eas tor, fill the hole, with melted para if in. and quickly insert the castor. This will entirely remove the annoyance. A Congoleum, rug that has beionce cracked by accident may be ?neri.ded by pntdng a piece or adhesive tape, a little larger than the crack, on the un der side. This will not show and will last indefinitely. To save garbage cans from rusting and wearing, out so quickly, paint in sides and out with odds and ends of paint. Prevent bed springs from becoming rusty and marring the sheets by ap plying a coat of aluminum paint. If you haveyoily hair, try, whjen shampooing it, the juice of one lemon instead of soap. Lemon cleans the hair and scalp perfectly and it cuts the oil. An excellent pot-scraper is a smooth flexible piece of brasg about two and one-half inches across with a ho\e in one Corner, and the other corners each rounded differently so as to fit groves in various, pans and dishes. * A safety-pin with a hook attached similar to "those pins used in hanging portieres' is very handy for your latch key in your shopping-bag. When baking in aluminum gem or bread iXt??* set the pans on the stove just a few seconds to slightly heat: then, grease and fill with the dough. By so doing you will find the gems or bread will not stick to the pans when ! baked. Another way to'prevent food from sticking is to grease the pans and then drop a spoonful of flour into them, shaking it about until the surface is all thoroughly dusted by the flour i whieh adheres to the grease. Reduce your gas bill by making use of that old portable oven which for merly belonged on your two-burner oli-stove. -I have resurrected mine from a?far corner of the garret and Jam using it daily over one. of the small burners of my gas range to bake bread, cake, potatoes, puddings?ev erything for which I would ordinarily use the gas oven. Before roasting your "leg of lamb" put in a pot, add two quarts of water, one'-fourth cupful of rice, onion salt and peper to taste, celery and parsley. | Let boil for one hour, then remove lamb and prepare for roasting. You have delicious lamb broth and also roast lamb. Paint the top and bottom cellar steps white. This will save many a fall.

To prevent this. after the second coat of enamel has dried, rub it evenly and lightly with a soft cloth dipped in watnd and powdered pumice.

Additions to Earth's Weight1 - In the early days of its history the earth .grew rapidly by the addition of meteoric matter. It Is still growing in the. same manner, though scarcely to an appreciable extent, for the mass of^meteorlc matter. added yearly is reckoned to be only 20.000 tons. In the eourse of ages the larger .planets have swept up practically all the frag ments of the original disruption, and the only available source of supply of meteoric matter seems to be that brought by comets. Snails Color Ocean's Beaches. A curious, change of .color. with the tide is noted in the beaches p-f Snails island in the Gulf of Mexico. The nat joral golden color of the sands is re tained as the tide rises; but with the ebb of the tide the beaches become quite purple; a change that is. due to the appearance of great numbers of tiny purple snails. s The Heart and the Puts*. -??

Press) I Seoul. Korea, May 8?The two Am- j erican Methodist missionaries" Henry j Appenzeller and Miss B. A- Smith, j who were dismissed by Japanese offi-j cials in Korea from their positions" of] principals of private schools, were ac cused of failing to comply with the re quirements of the Japanese to pre vent pro-Korean demonstrations by! students alleged to have disobeyed the j government order. Statements issued by representatives j of the Japanese government and by i Mr. Appenzeller indicate that both j missionaries refused to investigate de monstrations of some 'of the students in their, schools on the anniverary of the Korean independence movement or to punish students who participated in them. The position taken by bath missionaries was that sucjji action.by them would involve a political ele ment and that they had been war'r.ed from the American council-genencf, ?riot to interfere in political matters in Korea, Mr. Appenzelle/ declares-that he obeyed the government order to the, extent of warning his students against demonstrations arid had told them they would be punished if they dis obeyed. >?. X6 statement has lbeen obtained from Miss Smith, .principal of the Paiwha girl's school. The government agents assert that she did not warn her students against demonstrations as directed by the government e'\i?-~ der the plea that the prdblerir wus po lithr?! in, nature and an educational ist ought' riot to interfere with it."'The authorities admit that; Mr. Appenzel ler, principal of.-the T?ichai school warned the students against dsmo'n- ? stra.tions but state that when they had shouted "long live Korea," and the police had placed a cordor around ihe school he declined to investigate the affair or punish the students. Mr. Appenzeller declares ia a state ment that he told the gbver.i men t of ficials that he was ready to ijeai w'th any offence against school disctplb:.e but that it seemed to him tnat u t-oii tical element was involved which transferred the responsibility lor the investigation from the principal (him self) to the police. "Having done all in my power to prevent any,such iyc- j curenee, I ought not to be called up on to search out offenders of that sort." says Mr. Appenzeller. He ex plained that if he had searched for the offenders as a govern merit ^ger.t demanded he would' have b'^eri te garded by his students as u "tool of the police." Mr. Appenzeller adds that the police conducted their own investi gation, excluded him from the inquiry rooms and took from-the school one teacher and 14 students. He contin ues! ~~~ ; "As I had heard that the inquiry had been carried on in a brutal fashion, I commissioned the teachers to gather facts (concerning the police inquiry). I have detailed statements in riiy pos session and they show a total of 41 students who-were,, maltreated in one or more of the following ways?slap ping, punching, kicking, wrists twisted an object inserted between the fingers and these pressed until the blood started. One student is said to have Ha?vst finger brwken. This had been done tn the school." It is alleged by some foreigners that the Japanese officials in Korea tend to interpret the school regulations in such a manner as to make educationalists coadjutors of the pol*^ to an unwar ranted degree, it is a matter of re gard that Americans engaged in. teach ing in Korea'are specificially enjoined by American ? governmental' regula tions from taking any part whatsoever iin political matters in Korea.. This was brought out at the time of the inde^ pendence ? demonstrations last year when the American counsulate-general mailed copies-of instructions intended to guide Americans in Korea. These instructions had come years before from, the State Department in Wash ington. [ At the time of the independence re volts Japanese officials sought to iri ! duce the misionarieS to'exert their in j ftuence fo restrain the insurrectionists j/but the niisionaries declined to take ['any action on the ground that the j matter was political. In the present I cases the Japanese authorities con tend that the-matter was one vitally touching school discipline and that the niisionaries should have acted. Liberty Bond Xews.
