The presentation has been made possible through the courtesy of Rothert & Co. There isn't a woman in Harrisburg who can afford to miss the oppor-' tunity that the Telegraph is offering i them this week in the instructive \ lessons on war cookery given by; Mrs. Vaughn and it is the patriotic j duty of every woman to attend. I There is no cost whatever and no ad- j mission card is necessary. The pro- How cocoa helps to keep the bills down Eggs are up. Butter is up. Flour is up^ Prices are so high you have to make every thing count. But there is one strengthening food that has not increased in price. That is Lowney's Cocoa. By serving this pure Lowney's Coccfa you and your children get a delicious drink that will at the same time nourish and strengthen everyone. We say children par ticularly, because Lowney's Cocoa contains just the correct amount of nutritive Butter Fats (Cocoa Butter) for grow ing bodies, without being too rich for children's digestions. Lowney's Cocoa has always met the Government Pure Food Standards. It meets, too, Dr. Wiley's and the West field Pure Food Standards.

Swiss newspapers print !:i telegram from Vienna quoting the Sozial Demokratische Korrespondez to the effect that a committee of the Socialist party and a committee of the German Socialist deputies club have been said to issue a manifesto to the workingmen in regard to the government action in which the fol lowing declaration will be made: "If absolutism is re-established out of regard for pan-Germanism which Is prolonging the war, the working classes will be forced to fight for their rights." The manifesto concludes by ex horting the workers to hold them selves ready to fight if necessary. ' COMMISSIO N KB GROSS CJETS SOUVEMR FROM FRANCE i City Commissioner E. Z.

LIBERTY LOAN IS $2,000,000 OVER [Continued from First Page.] j quotas by almost one-third their ollotment, are Dauphin, Perry, Juni ! ata, Cumberland, not includingShip pensburg in the last named county. Harrisburg subscribed $3,710,- 900. Its quota was $3,500,000. Of | the amount raised. $3,347,900 was subscribed through the various banks, and $363,000 through the railroads. The subscriptions report ed by the banks include the sub scriptions secured by the various campaign workers during the inten sive campaign in the city. Steelton is credited with $726,000. Steelton's quota was $400,000. Counties Do Good Work ] The county outside of Steelton and Harrisburg reports subscriptions ! amounting to SBOO,OOO. This raises I the entire Dauphin county total to \ $5,210,900. Its quota was $4,800.- i 000. There are a number of banks 'in the small towns of the county j districts which have not completed j their returns, so that the total will | he raised by a few hundred thou sands to-morrow. In addition, $200,- i 000 was reported by the railroads. Cumberland county is the only county which has not yet submitted complete returns. Its total to date shows subscriptions of $1,300,000, with a quota of $1,000,000. It has promised additional $200,000. Perry county mar surpassed the expectations of the Liberty Loan of ficials. With a quota of $400,000 to I raise, the officials of the county promised $500,000 and to-day re ported $5*8,200. Juniata county In the last -week of the campaign raised $200,000, which is more than it raised during the entire preceding period of the drive. Juniata county raised $388,- 750, with a quota of $300,000. A week ago last Saturday night the county reported subscriptions amounting to $190,000, and raised the remainder the last week of the drive. The Totals In addition to the above amounts reported through the banks, the amounts raised by the railroad em ployes of the four counties are: Dauphin $200,000 Cumberland 87,000 Juniata 25,000 Perry 49,000 The reports of the banks in the city follow: Allison Hill Trust Co ... $52,800 1 Camp Curtin Trust Co.. 151,000 Central TOrust Co 198,300 Citizens Bank 47,450 Commercial Trust C 0... 30,000 Commonwealth Trust Co 380,000 Dauphin Deposit Trust Co 850,000 East End Bank I^>,ooo First National Bank.... 4*.000 Harrisburg National 150,000 Harrisburg Trust C 0.... 300,000 Keystone Bank 38,650 Mechanics Trust Co 175,000 Merchants National Bank 107,000 Security Trust Co 88,700 Union Trust Co 245,000 State Capitol Savings and Loan Association .... 40,000 Railroads 363,000 Total $3,710,900 Any persons who imagined at the beginning of the recent Liberty Loan campaign that Perry and Juniata countlea were not going to "come through" with their respective quotas certainly had a wrong "slant" at the two counties. Perry county's quota was $400,000 —and P. F. Duncan, of Duncannon, last night reported to headquarters that the total subscriptions then had reached $568,200. Juniata county's quota was $300,- 000—and H.' E. Linderman last night reported $388,750, with the county still going strong. The Perry county towns bought bonds in this manner: Blain. $45,200; New Bloomfleld, $100,000; Duncannon, $108,000; Landisburg, $40,000; Marysvllle, $48,850; Millefstown, $40,000; New port, $106,000; Liverpool, $26,150.

R., $5,050; Harrisburg Trust Company, $5,000. Steelton Has Many Buyers Steelton last night had a total of $600,000 Liberty Bonds, which rep resented 7,429 individual subscrip tions. This, say the Liberty Loan of ficials, is a marvelous showing, but it does not include everything, in as much as it represents only the purchases through Steelton National Bank and Steelton Trust Company. Hersbey Does Well Returns from Hershey this morn ing show that the town has bought $410,000 worth of bonds. In all the Liberty Loan campaigns Hershey has done remarkably well. and Wlconisco are down on tfle books for $117,600 worth of bonds, representing $117,600 pur chasers. Mechanlcsburg, with 53 9 pur chasers, bought $160",000 bonds. Penbrook. with 961 buyers, pur chased bonds worth $82,400. FLYING WITH SHAFFER • HUNTING B OCHES IN THE AIR t.ETTERS FROM A DAUPHIN BOY TO HIS MOTHER Somewhere in France, March 14, 1918 Dear Mother: Am sorry to say. that those wo&d en Xmas boxes have not .showed up yet, I have nearly given up hope of even getting them—and I do want that camera so badly, for your sake more than mine. At last 1 re ceived my two-wing badge from the French authorities, so now I have some official proof that I am an avi ator. Having the ljafayette Flying Corps badge also, I'm pretty well decorated up. The other day several Americans came by In a motorcycle with a side car. and stopping to look around the place, were much interested, and were so thankful they took two of us for a ride to the Lafayette esca drille headquarters. We just got there in time for tea, (they seemed to have acquired the habit) and ask ed us to sit in, of course. Consid ering how we looked, it being an impromptu trip and we tearing all old duds on, they showed a real democratic spirit, for they were cap tains and lieutenants, all dolled up In the American uniform. Howev er. I did enjoy that unexpected lunch, for they actually had gran ulated sugar—and all one wanted, too; and white bread also, some thing I had not seen in eight months ■ —let alone tasted. Even the thought was poor payment for their hospitality, for I confess I had a wild desire to swipe a loaf of that bread. They also had cream—not condensed either—if one wished it In his tea. That made three sur prises in one day, which were quite shocks enough for any aviator. Daylight Saving;' Yesterday we jumped ahead of the rest of the world again—one whole hour. It seems to be quite regular pass time to set the clock ahead an hour every once in so of ten. as far as I can see the idea seems to b to have the sun rise at 7 A. M., and set at " P. M„ and by juggling the clock .they succeed pretty well in making "old sol" keep regular hours. Am feeling rather downhearted tonight, for I have been loafing for over a month now, and am still loar ing, since I busted my "Zang" the <>ther day after about six rides In it. Now I am awaiting orders to leave for Paris to get a new one, but the orders have not come yet, and I am becoming very impatient. My room mate, Putman, was in a fight today —the first with a Morane and I am anxious to get at the Hun myself. This inaction is awful ! ! ! Spring Fever Spring has certainly arrived here lately and naturally, the pprlng fev er also, for the sun has been shin ing brightly for a whole week. I am trying to kid myself that the weather has forgotten how to weep, but it is like a 'woman:—one never can tell when the next flood will be gin. Don't get the idea I, am tiring of "cherchant" the Boche, because I am not. Rather. I am becoming heartily sick of waiting around for the chance. After bothering the Captain everyday about a "zing", and even asking for the use of his private Nieuport, which he gave me permission to fly, but not to flgbt in, he finally gave another American and I the use of one "zing" a mo rane whose owner was on permis sion. We were to use it clternate ly, and tossing a cent to yee who tlew first, I won, and went jubilantly off to round up my mechanic to put my instruments on, for 'wo lieutsn f.nd I were going hunting at 6 P. M. and I wanted to be ready. Wc Eagle Brand for Javori Eagle Brand in your cooking and baking makes every dish a "favorite" dish.

That boy sjre could paint and I stood enraptured nehlnd him, watching the p.ctu.'e appear with swift, deft strokes of brush and pen cil. The day lofj.'e I had watched him paint the plnui-e of a Niouport in the same auro, swift way. At 5 P. M. finally ariivsd, and we w:r# soon away, but no sooner had 1 be gan following ray lieutenant than I noticed some oil was leaking from u tube nearby. It was leaking very slowly, 1 knew on going, for I had not been in the air for so long that I would have stayed al >ft with more trouble than that. We were soon at the lines and climbing higher, some thing I did not like, for above 4,000 meters my motor worked badly, so I came down lower, still staying with my lieutenant, but away below him. In this way we kept flying back and forth Just over the lines, sometimes being shot at, but the twilight seemed to disturb their judgment, because all the shots fell far short. Twice I saw white shrapnel break ing over the lines, which is sener-| ally an indication of a Boche, but strain my eyes as I would, I could I not find the Hun. It was 6:30 P. M. and getting rather dark, but I still kept flying up and down the lines, although the lieutenant had left for home some time before in the hopes of seeing something. Being all by my lonesome, I nat urally kept a shfirp lookout all around. Once a big plane hove in sighf behind and over me, but it proved to be a French plane, and another time I saw far below, one of th* famous French aces chasing something down at a terrific speed, but I could not see what he was chasing.—l hope you have not be come all "het up" by this time, for you will be disappointed if you ex pect the climax to be a "mort" Boclie, for I finally had to give up on account of darkness and come back to roost. I made another awful landing, but stayed right side up this time and did not break any thing, my roommate, Putman met me with a beautiful "balling out" as I climbed out of my seat, first for making a bad landing, and for staying over the lines so far. It seems the lieutenant had come down and to the inquiries as to where I was had replied that he had left me a mile on the other side of the lines, flying at the suicidal altitude of 1,500 meters. As Put man put it, "I was afraid I would have to make another trip to Paris" (Winter, an American was kiUed some time ago here, and he arrang ed his affairs in Paris, which called forth the above remark.) I think it was more relief than anything else that made him call me down so. However, the lieutenant had not toid him the story quite right, for I was flying at 3,000 meters and was right over the lines most of the time. But I had not luck, and my machine gun was working so well too. I may go out tomorrow again, if the motor runs well, I certainly hope so. Today being Sunday, the usual crowd was around to gape and ad mire our pretty birds. Some Amer ican soldiers came out also, and one of them said he would give me CO francs if I would arrange to get him a ride. It was soon arranged with one of the big, clumsy sinus, which pull a target after them for other zings to shoot at, and he had the thrill of his life—and I 50 francs for he was as good as his word. There seemed to be a number of "chickens" abroad to-day also, some of them pretty enough to make me wish I was dressed up instead of be ing in sweater and trousers, the latter needing a "Window" closed in the back. But sewing is an awful bother, even when ono has the time, for the second time since I came to France, 1 beheld the French "chick ens" actually In the natural, who are painted so beautifully and daringly in the magazines. The rabbit has hatched agnin, or would one say laid ?—anyway, the family is there, and I am trying to remember now how long it requires a rabbit to grow to eatable size, for with the present vegetables in use here it requires SOME cook to make them appetizing. However, he tills the bill pretty well, for he can dis guise turnips so that even I can't recognize them —and believe me! that's going some. As for cabbage and carrots, he bakes it, he cooks it, he mixed it with meat and every thing else but sauerkraut, and what we don't eat, goes to the rabbits — or in next day's soup. You have no doubt heard of the many raids on Paris lately, well, the Boches generally pass near here on their way in, and from the way the guns keep booming away at them, the way must be wild and bumpy. Only last night they attacked Eper nay, near here, and there sure was some racket for a while. One of the planes must have gotten lost, for he was sailing around above our camp at a very low altitude. Wo Particular Housewives!

Press Urges German Navy to Deal With Bold Antagonist IJWUIOII, May 7. —That the recent British attack on the Gorman sub marine bease at Zeebrugge was sue* cessful is admitted by the Frank furter Zeltung in commenting upon the affair. The newspaper urges that the German navy take measures to deal "with an antagonist of remark able boldness." "It would be foolish to deny," IS says, "that the British fleet scorei a great success through a fantas tically audacious stroke in penetrat ing into one of the most Important strongholds over which the German flag floats. "However unpleasant it may he, we must frankly admit that the enemy ships actually entered the port of Zeebrugge. That being so, there is no reason why they should not achieve a similar feat at other times. It, therefore, behooves our command to be alert for we have to deal with an antagonist of remarkable boldness."
