rpHERE Is no Joy like the Joy of acqmr-
Jng knowledge; nothing which keeps
the mind so alert, so alive. Tho pleas
ures of doing are as nothing In compari
son, for they are but passing, while the
new knowledge Is an imperishable pos
session which Ave will carry with us be
yond the grae. It Is true that the habit
of study is difficult In the bejinnlng. but
It Is an appetite that grows In the rratl.

TITENTAL rust Is one of the most In-J-
sldious of diseases. It steals on us
, before we have recognized the first symp
, toms, and unless we have unusual powers
of will It Is virtually Incurable. Have
you not known many who seemed In
capable of receiving a new Idea, whose
minds appear to be barred and shuttered
against any glimmer of today's sun? The
locks and hinges of their mental door are
rusted, the wheels of their spiritual ma
chlnery are bound with rust and dust, and
A bic polka-dotted bow. stiffened
another color and design.
so they become too old and cumbersome
to use.
Such people often st-iit out with a
good equipment of intelligence and edu
cation, but wits are lllso knives If they
are not kept In constant u'e. sharpened
and ground, they first become dull and
then rust sets In and eat them away
That Is why you will meet men and
women old before their time, while others
away up In the seventies and eighties
will be brighter than their own giand
children. "Marlon Harland." who Is now eighty
six years of age, told a tecent Interviewer
that should she now find herself In want
and "out of a Job" she would "go right
out and make one." And there is little
fear she would find any dimculty, for
she has always kept her mind and soul
free from rust. She explains her youth
In this way; "Old ago Is merely selfish
ness. We have lived our lives we say,
and we shut our minds to the Interests
of those around us So tho lethargy of
the lotus eater enwraps .spirit and
senses."
The Newest Thing Is the Aviation Chapcau
Now that the
boys are doing
the things worth
while and going
into all branches
of Uncle Sam's
sen-ice, the girls
want to show
them how much
they think of
their efforts by
rushing around
and getting very
busy in their
many w ays of
helping out in the
big cause. .Of
course, the girls
must not forget
to look pretty, no

they may be, and
what could be
more becoming
when they are

Explanation of Cold Pack Method
To iht Editor of Woman's rage:
Dear Madam I am a constant reader of vour
department ami find many valuable helps
therein, and am nrltlnc to ask If vou can help
me. too. I would like to know the details of
the eo-ealled "celd-paek" method of cannlntr
lima beans Are they put Into the Jnrs raw,
covered with cold water, then cooked for eom
time, or do they have to be cooked nt all first?
Jr you tell me they ar to be "blanrhed" miy I
ask lust what blanehlnjr means? Also la any
preservative necessary? (Mrs ) M C. W.
Cold-pack canning simply means packing
the product uncooked and cooking It in the
closed Jar
To prepare 11ms. beans for the Jars wash
them carefully, then place them In a fine
wire holder or cheesecloth bag (a square of
cheesecloth with the four corners tied to
gether will answer) and blanch them by dip
ping In rapidly boiling water for five min
utes. At the end of this time remove, and,
working as quickly as possible, pack the
beans In glass Jars which have been
thoroughly cleansed, add one teaspoonful of
salt to each quart Jar and nil to overflow
ing with boiling water. Have your rubbers
sterilised, adjust them, screw down the lid
until it Just catches, place In the cooker and
let cook from SO to 120 minutes In a home
made hot-water bath outfit, or one hour in
steam-pressure cooker (five pounds). Count
from the time the water begins boiling
gain after the Jars have been placed In It.
Remove, tighten the lids of the Jars and
stand them upside down to cool. Tu this
way any leaks can be discovered De care
ful that the 1ar are nnt r,lanA in ...u
)K pail or a wash boiler can be used for the
Itome-made cooker If a false bottom of
cross-pieces of lathing or a wire basket Is
made In order to slightly raise the Jars and
allow the free circulation of air around
them. The water should cover the Jars
completely No preservative Is necessary
when this method Is used.

Hate of partial or complete exhaustion
When fatigue ts the result of work, rest
Is demanded If one continues to work when
tired, a wasteful expenditure of eneigy
occurs I. Zuntz, of Berlin, has shown that
when one 1 fatigued the amount of eneigy
lequlrcd for the performance of a given
task Is gre.itlv Increased For example. If
one walking at the rate of three miles an
hour expends cevcnty-flve units of enetgy
for oaeh mile when fresh, after walking for
som time and becoming weary, the energy
expended per mile will be ninety units nr
even more The explanation of this In
creased energy expenditure Is found In the
fact that when one becomes tired ho usei
a larger number of muscles for performing
the same work than when freMi.
Laboratory experiment have demon
strated that an exhausted muscle may bo
completely rested by simply washing It,
showing that the rxhauted muscle con
tains some element, thn removal of which
restores the ability of the muscle to woik
It has been noted, also, that If the muscles
of the legs are worked to tho extent of ex
haustion, the arms also become tired, een
though they hae taken no part In tho
work Professor Ranke found that an ex
tract prepared from exhausted frog mucles
ptoduced fatigue when Introduced Into the
circulation of fresh mucles These experi
ments hae led to the conclusion that
poisons result from the activities of the
cell These fatigue polxms lessen the cell's
working power.

He said, "Hurry up I w-ant you to see

nnd milk and so did Rowdy, and Jim took
the milk cans out of the wagon and we
all piled ln, and away we went We got
to the circus ground before they had the
tents up. nnd It was all fun and cussing
and hammering stakes Into the ground Then
the animals began to come and there were
so many things to see that I did not see
halt of them Jim knows all about circuses.
They are Called circuses because the men
who put up the tents cuss so much.
When everybody started away from the
grounds to parade we piled back Into the
wagon and went to see them. We saw the
elephants and the camels and everything.
Then Jim bought some sandwiches, which
we ate In the wagon, and then we went out
to the clrcuB again, and Jim bought some
tickets and in we went.
I never looked at so many things at once
In all my life before. After It was all over
and I was full up with peanuts and popcorn
and lemonade, we started to go out. and
there was such a crowd we could not
breathe. Jim kept pushing the people back
to keep them off of Rowdy and me. A
lot of young men came rushing through the
crowd In a line, knocking the people seven
ways for Sunday. I was right In their way,
and so I was going to have Rowdy eat the
whole bunch when Jim got between us and
pushed them bacT and told them to behave.
The big fellow who was leading them Btructo
at Jim's face, only when his fist got there
Jim had removed his face. Then Jim
landed his fist on the fellow's face and
after that Jim had to grab him to keep him
from falling. I think If I was not a good
little girl I should like to grow up like
Jim. to pound somebody's face In.
Jim said, "Is there any other gent who
would like to try to step on a little girl?"
The crowd yelled and the gang broke up,

Cheaper Coal Hardly
Expected Before Spring
1 y
it j! Km
Vv aJ "
Cnnllnned from Pass One
latter cost of production, These mines
obviously cannot produce at this price while
the mass of the coal in the district yields
a fair profit. Yet the Government wishes
to keep production up.
TWO THKOIIIKS
There are two theories as to how these
mines will be kept In the game. One Is
that they should be taken over by the
Government and operated, the Government
to stand the loss. The second theory Is
that they should be made exceptions nnd
a price set for them at which they could
pay profits. The administrator Is con
fronted with the tak of keeping them
working.
Difficulty number three has to do with
the dealer who has nlready bought his
coal on contract
Vlrtuallv every large coal dealer In Phila
delphia lo'ng ago contracted for his coal
for tho coming winter. Many dealers have
large quantities of it already In their yards.
They have paid something like $3.8S for
the same coal that the Government now
says must be sold for $2. They have got
to sell that coal as though they had bought
It for ?2 a ion Their next-door neighbor
who Is not buying on an old contract gets
his coal nt $3 a ton and they must meet
his competition. The Government will not
let them sell coal at a flguro that would
make a profit on 53 8f. tf the law and
the regulations are administered In ac
cordance with what nppears on the surfaco
every 0110 of these local dealers would lose
money on every ton ho sells. The coal
administrator has got to work out some
plan that will not do this dealer an In
justice. Difficulty number four nIo has to do
with coal contract that already exist.
The railroads are most favored of all
coal consume! s. While other buyers were
paying 13 for bituminous coal It wns
no uncommon thing for a railroad to ha
purchasing the same fuel from the same
mine at $1.50. tt may be true that It
costs $2 a ton to mine this coal and that
the mine loses money on it.
WHY RAILROADS ARH KAVORHD
There are two explanations of this sit
uation One Is that a railroad contract
Is attractive becnuse It Is large and runs
steadily throughout the year. It will give
the miner a bulk of production that will
make his other business more profitable.
The serond explanation Is that coal mines
are dependent on railroads to move their
product The mine that accommodates the
railroad Is much more likely to get cars
than is the mine which does not. Henco
the favorable contrar-ts to the railroads.
It Is argued that If coal mines were
to abrogate these conltacts on which they
lose money, they might tend to offset tho
cuts in prices that are being forced upon
them by the Government. Mr. Garfield will
have .1 chance to take out this slack In mlno
operation.
Difficulty number five may be said to
have to do with labor.
In the United Stntes today there aro
probably not less than a hundred situations
In which the miner and tho operator nie
near the breaking point. The two face
each other with fixed bnyoncts. Each goes
over tho top cr tunnels under In his at
tempts to weaken the position of the other.
This cut In the selling price of coal will
cause the employer to attempt a cut ln
wages. Tertainly he cannot as well afford
to pay high wages as when Iin was making
four times the profit on every ton the miner
took out The miner will answer that tho
Government based Its ludgment In fixing tho
price on th producer's ability to take out
iiih coat wun me wages then prevailing.
The coal committee of tho Council of
National Defense has assumed tho task of
imiirinK on on inn troubled waters of labor
as applied to coal mining. That commltteo
has as Its head, for Instance, P. S. Peabody.
ot Chicago, n man who owns a score of
mines. Half of his mines, being in tho
unionized .State of Illinois, employ union
labor. The other half are ln Kentucky
where an operator may pick and choose,
nnd Mr. Penhody works nonunion men
there to show his broad mlndedness. Ho
has got nil the money he wants nnd so
works hard for tho Government for a dol
lar ti year.
HOW PEARODY WORKS
Mr. Peabody Is n diplomat and moro
genial than llunny himself. He picked
two assistants for Intlmato advice and co
operation In keeping the coal mines of the
nation yielding up their dormant horse
power Roth were young men, nggresslve.
Incisive, thorough masters of the coal busi
ness. Edward Chase was tho representa
tive of one of the biggest coal producers ln
the nation.
The organization which Mr. Chnso rep
resented had never employed a union man
In all its life. The second selection of Mr.
Peabody was William Diamond, enthusiastic
representative of the I'nited Mine Work
ers, who had been fighting nonunlonlsm In
Kentucky. Hero was nn open-shop man, a
union man nnd an employer who worked
with both. Tho group has been handling
about fifty telegrams a day bearing on
labor troubles (n the mines and has talked
reason nnd canning tho Kaiser to all of
them nnd adjusted tho difficulties. This
organization Is at the disposal of the new
coal administrator and wilt help him with
the difficulties of the labor situation.
Of these difficulties two aro obviously
emb.itrnsslng getting the mines to pro
duce $2 coal when they havn contracts for
$1 coal, and forcing tho man who is loaded
up on $4 coal to soil It at $2,
The mines today mostly have tne mass
of their product contracted for. Certainly
these contracts will bo filled before coal Is
sold at tho lower price. Mining men are
saying already with somthlng of a chuckle
"There ain't gonna be no core." '
The mass of tho coal Is used ln the In
dustries which buy In advance and have
already provided for, the present year.' They
will pay contract prices unless something
drastic Is done about It. If their rivals are
able to buy at the now prices they will
get a material advantage In production be
cause ot the Government action which made
it possible. There are those who think It
will be necessary for the President to nsk
Congress for the authority to abrogate con
tracts and place everybody on an equality
with, $2 coal for the ptesent season.
WOULD SOLVE DIFFICULTY
This would solve also the difficulty which
faces that dealer, who has contracted for
this winter's coal at old prices nnd who
will be forced by the Government to sell
as though he had bought for J2. It would

Italians Drive Enemy
From Monte Santo
Continued from Tare One
occupied before their own offensive last
December.
MONTE SANTO CAPTURED
' IN CADORNA'S ADVANCE
' ROME, Aug. 26.
Capture of Monte Santo yesterday by
Italian troops ana peneiranon 01 ine aun
trlan lines at several polnta were an
nounced officially today.
In the various places where the enemy
line has been broken the Austrlans are
being closely pursued.
On the Trentlno front, especially In the
sectors of the Lagarlna Valley and Monte
Croce, the Austro-Hungarlans are maktnr,
strong counter-attacks, but these have been
broken up by ItallnV resistance without
gaining a foot of ground.
Upward of 21,000 prisoners aro now In
the hands of the Italians, all having been
enptured since the eleventh battle of the
Isonzo opened on August 18.
The War Office gave the second Italian
army the honor of the victory.
News that this force had been "broken
through" at several points was hailed with
great rejoicing hero. It was agalntft Monte
Santo that one of the main drives of the
Italian offensive of last April was directed
ln the assault on tho three great promon-
torlesof Kuk, vodlce and Monto Santo.
Dispatches from the front say the
Italians forced crossings of the Isonzo be
tween Tolmlno and Plava. The survivors
of the Austro-Hungarlan garrison nt Monte
Santo fled eastward, hotly pursued by the
Italians. The pursuit continues.
Monte Santo, a peak 2245 feet high ln
the Julian Alps, had been strongly fortified
by the Austro-Hungarlans and It was only
through the efficiency of the Italians' heavy
guns and the brilliant gallantry of tho In
fantry that It was carried by storm.

Canadian troops still ndvanced against
Lens today West and south of the coal
city the fighting was one continuous battln
of assaults by the Canadians and Immediate
counter-attacks by the enemy. At several
points the German counter-attacks forced
some slight recessions, but this wan more
than counterbalanced by a night victory
west of the metropolis.
There Field Marshal Halg today reported
"a successful attack, with slight casualties
to us," which "captured a short trench of
local Importance.
"In the Lombaertzyde neighborhood at
night wo "captured an enemy post, taking
n few prisoners and a machine gun," the
statement continued. "Around Epehy there
was considerable artlllerylng early this
morning,"
Germany's counter-attacks, not only
around Lens but northward In the Ypres
Menln sector, show no signs of weaken
ing. They are made In great concentration
of men nnd of barrage fire.
A dispatch from the front says:
"The Canadians continued hammering at
Lens today, chipping off bits here and there.
"During the night they advanced astride
tho railway In the city nnd captured a
trench a thousand yards from tho station
itself. It was Uttered with German dead.
Fierce resistance was encountered over
every step of this gain.
"As a result of cold-blooded sacrifice of
men, headquarters report today showed tho
enemy had retaken Ivcrncss Copse, forcing
back tho British extrcmo right on this bat
tlo ground a short distance.
"As this Is cabled reports at headquarters
say fighting Is developing on tho extreme
urltlsh left front near the Junction of the
British and French fronts."
