Mr. Tydings argued ear- nestly in favor of an amendment to permit the use of only nonpoisonous denaturants in industrial alcohol, as- serting that present practice was in effect “giving the death penalty to a man who commits no greater crime than violation of the prohibition law.” But a large majority of the senators evidently believed the statement of Sheppard of Texas that “poisonous matter put in industrial not used in kin.” Senator Carter Glass said the transfer of the prohibition bureau should have been made years ago, but he attacked the Wickersham commission for “wasting” nearly $250.. 000 and asking for that much more. He said he would propose a resolu- tion calling for a statement of the commission's expenditures before any additional money is appropriated. He asserted that the commission had been spending Its time “inquiring into deliquents, the depth of automobiles, and such things Under the terms of the bill Dr. James M.

The nice thing about the crown roast is that It is so easy to carve, There is an old saying among the French that it is as disgraceful for a host to be ignorant ng It is to have a fine lihrary and not know how to read. The art of carving is a most useful and graceful accomplishment, and it should form a part of the education of every young men and woman. Be gin with the easy meats to carve, and the more complicated will not seem so overwhelming. The carvers seat should be high enough to bring the elbows on a line with the table, with ample room fo moving the arms. The cut of meat or fowl should be placed on a platter large enough to allow the joint to be carved without danger to the cloth, The garnishment should never inter fere with the work of the carver. Such garnishes as parsley and watercress may be laid aside and will not prove objectionable. With a crown roast all the carver has fo do is to cut down between every rib. Each plece is then ready to serve. Cocktail Sauce~~Those who enjoy the shrimp or oyster cocktails or the gimapler one of fruit prepared from grapefruit or oranges will like a home made sauce. Take two teaspoonfuls of grated horse radish, three table. spoonfuls of catsup, one teaspoonful of salt, two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, four tablespoonfuls of grape fruit juice and one-fourth of a tea- spoonful of tabasco sauce. Mix all the ingredients and pour over the cocktail, For spring lamb mint sauce Is fa. vored, Crush a bunch of mint, cover with a tablegpoontul of each of water and lemon juice, boiling hot, add a tablespoonful of powdered sugar and gerve, Have the mint finely chopped.

The Pennsylvania demand for the grading “excellent” is that the “rough. ometer.,” a wheeled device that meas. ures all tiny ridges and valleys in the pavement surface, shall not show more than 25 accumulated inches of rough. ness per mile. No Cure-All for Many Troubles in Starting While there is no cure-all for start. ing troubles, it Is seldom necessary to go to such extremes as priming the gpark plugs, running down the bat. tery or flooding the cylinders, and fin. ally towing the car for two or three blocks. Instead of trying to start the ing out the choke and then touching the starter, It Is far easier if the choke is drawn out and the starter turned over a few times before the fgnition is switched on.
