Secretary of tbe Treasury McAdoo has announced that, no matter what the results of the pending overtures for peace may be, there will be another Liberty Loan, To use his expression, "We are going to have to finance peace for a while just as we have bad to finance war." There are over 2,000,000 Upi ted States soldiers abroad. If we transport these men back to the United States at 30O,C0Oa month, it will be over half a year before they are all returned. Our Army, therefore, must be maintained, victualed and clothed for many months after peace is an actually. The American people, there fore, baving supported the Lib erty Loan with a patriotism that future historians will love to ex tol, will have an opportunity to show the same patriotism in fi nancing tbe just and conclusive victorious peace whenever It comes. Not for a moment, however,. is tbe Treasury acting on any as sumption that peace is to come soon. Until peace is actually as sured the attitude of tbe Treas ury and tbe attitude of tbe whole United States government is lor the most vigorous prosecu tion of the war, and tbe motto of force against Germany without stint r limit will be acted up to until peace is an absolute accom plished fact. One mora Liberty Loan, at least, is certain. The fourth loan was popplarly called the "Fighting Loan", the next loan may be a fighting loan too, or it may be a peace loan. Wbat ever the cndition, the loan must be prepared for and its success rendered certain and absolute. Begin now to prepare to support it Good Roads Assured. Tbe approval of tbe people of Pennsylvania ol tbe constitu. tional amendment making it pis sible to issue bonds for $30 000, 000 to be us?d for good roads is a too long neglected step in the right dirtc'ioa. The defeat of this proposition the last time it was submitted was due to a few snug hypocrites who lifted them selves to temporary control over the Democratic and independent voters of the State by bang ng to President Wilson's coat tails. Tbe roads ol Pennsylvania have long been a disgrace tojtbe Com monwealth, and the people who havj resented their condition, have by tbe recent vote furmnbed Governor elect Sp-oul one of l is greatest opportunities fie has always been an adv cate of good roads, and with the mot ey now made available to build and main tiin them we may expect many parts of Ponny'vanlt to emerge from the mud by which l hay hava Q(eucut' ff from tti ii: neighbors The Winter Vegetables. "It is not an economical tend ency that bas developed Us away from the use of the winter vege tables," says Mrs. Eugene G Uenn. advwer on home and com ui unity interests for tbe Penn sylvania Department ofAgncul ture. "We are getting so that we think it not refined to con fess a liking for cabbage, sauer kraut, turnips, carrots and on ions. They are bomoly old veg etables and they make the bouse smell like a cheap board tog bouse to cook them, and that is tbe principol reason why wo dislike them. It is much easier for Uio housewife to opeu a can of coru, peas or tomatoes than to prepare and cook the winter vegetables. And in winter tune we often forgot tho hot summer afternoons that we spent in putting these vege tables into the caus. War time conditions will probably bring our common sense to bear on this as ou many another problem, as we shall come to see that we must con sume tbe things that are at hand to use in their respective seasons in order to save materials, energy, time and expense. "At market, recently, I saw some ueautiiul ciniaioupes fftiicb, I was told, were L'5 cjnts apiece. Ana as i started lopats on tho man said 'Fine canta loupes, lady, 'Yen,' I said, 'but ttny are too expensive.' 'But tbey came all the way from Colorado, M's.' 'Well,' I said, 'I do not doubt that, but we poo pie must learn to use the things that are nearer home. Of course he knew that we shou'd, but it was his business to got the people tbe things tbey want from any part of the country re gardless of transporalion con gestion, expense or sense. There is a good suggestion to tbe farm er right here that he advertise well his winter vegetables and get tbe town people to using more of them. "Study your cook book to find different ways to serve the winter vegetables. No family likes the parsnips always cooked with salt pork. They like them dipped in Hour and irieu or creamed. The same with tho every day potato Watch yonr self that you do not give your family 'warmed up' potatoes for breakfast, boiled ones for dinner and irieu lor supper. lio sure to save the nice smooth ones for baking. llave a nice dish of scalloped pott toes to surprise them some day. Cream them in stead of frying for suppsr oc cassionally. Dice tbe raw pota toes, cook a few minutes, and cream them and add a nine touch of cheese for tl.vor. You may think it too much trouble to French fry tbem, but it is very little extra effort to cut them in half llit ways, boil u'util tender and put in a pan in tho oven to bake. Try cooking them around your roast ocnasionally. Cirrots are fine sliced thin and cooked until tender, tben drain off what water is left, put in a little butter and a little maple syrup or sugar 1 permissible, stir until glazjd, then sprinkle over them a little spearmint ground fine and serve. There are many ways to be resourceful in this as in any other line of work." Value of Bean Crop. Stimulated by war's demands, Southern California's tean crop this yoar will surpass its yield of oranges in value. Toreshing now is being completed and pre liminary estimates announced by the Los Angelef Chamber tf Comme.ce indicate that the bean crop will run more than 8, 0 0.000 bushels, baving a u aver age value of (4 53 per bushel a total of more thao 140.000,010? According to ( overoment fig gurec, last) ear California pro duced more than half the beans in thtUnited States. This year there is an unusually large acre age, due to tbe many ranchers interplanting their young or charda with this staple of the soldiers' diet. Tho total ac resge is 487,000. A few milei tout') of Los Angeles is tbe largest bean acre age in tbe world under onn ownership. This is knon as the I' vine Ilinch. It has 15 003 acres planted in beans, which will bring the growers somelbl g enr 8,000,0C( WARCC5IS Eipcoses for Present Year Over Thirty . six Billion Dollar. Before the war an American Congress that appropriated a much as a billion dollars for Gov ernmcntal expenses during a sin gle aoar was considered very ex- traeagant. However, we have re cently become so accustomed to the idea of monstrous war appro p-iations that the fact that the Urgent Deficiency Bill, recent ly introduced in the House of Re presentatives, totals more than ?G 000,000,01 0 (or approximately six times as much a tho total annual txpensos of the Govcru- inout beforo tbe wa) causes but little comment. Moreover, even the fact that the cost of running our Federal Governmuot this year, iucludiug payment and au thonzitions, alrtadyf amounts to the enormous sum of 6,130,097, 439, excites only passing interest. This attitude is, of course, due to the fact that these matters are now completely overshadowed by the epoch making event of tho war. When pjace cornea, how ever, and we have time for care ful thought and norious n dic tion, there will no doubt be a do mand for a full anointing, aid the record th y n revealed will, ao cording as it i croditaole or dis creditable, constitute either a mouumout which will glorify, ai d strengthen or an ludiclmunt which will ondemn and humili ate the political party whrwe len ders are responsible for the p"op er administration of these stu pendous f::nds.

It seems that his hair was of a ycllowlsh-whlte shade that was no color at all. Ho had heard the red heads were Rood scrun pers, and ho .was praying the Lord to Klve lilm red hair so that ho inlRht go forth to flRht the kaiser.

X. 1J. l', was throuji into the sea by the explosion. lie was drawn under by the suction, hut on coming to tho surface grasped a raft and clambered aboard, where there were already eight others, in cluding the skipper. Floating about in tho open sea the men could still observe tho outlines of the German submarine which had fired tho tor pedo. After drifting for several hours two of the men died. Their bodies were consigned to tho sea. Tho men were finally rescued by a Nor wegian merchant ship and taken to Scotland. Lieutenant 1'uluski, who was one of tho men saved after this ordenl, had been on duty on the Lake Moor sineo her launching at Duhith in December. His home is in Chicago. HIS POSITION IN LIFE. It was kit inspection in a certain military camp on tho Yorkshire coast and the men in otie hut stood to attention when tho officer came in. He stopped opposite one fellow and asked him what he did in civil life. The man replied : "A carter, sir." To the next man he put the same question; ho had been a weaver. The officer then stopped, facing a miserable-looking chap. "Well, and what were you in civil life, my man ?" ' He replied: "Aw wero very un happy, sirl" ROUGH ON THE PRESIDENT. They were discussing government in a school. Finally the teacher asked a littlo hoy what the duties of the chief executive were, lie stammered for a moment, then blurted: "The chief executive is the guv that executes the president." THE REASON. "Do you find it hard on your fam ily to keep tho meatless days, Mrs. Cornell p?" "No, indeed ; our family are more or less valutudiariaaa." Rich In Misfortune. At the end of life a man finds him self rich, not so much by his fortune as by his misfortunes.

Statistics Show That Juries Are Gen erally Willing to Maintain Validity of Legal Testaments. Tho right to regulate what shall la dono with one's property after death remains substantially intact, and this, too, notwithstanding tho popular impression that tho inten tion of testators is very easily frus trated. It is a current belief, which derives color from the sensational contests of which wo read in tho newspapers, that a great many wills arc broken, I'ohert Grant writes in Scrihner's. Hut, though tho attacks of disappointed or greedy relatives are nuiierous, tho contrary is true, according to tho records of tho largest comity of tho slate with which I am most familiar and whero predatory tendencies against tes tators arc well developed. These rec ords show a steady average of rather less than 1 per cent of wills disal lowed during the last ten years, a re sult which is made more reinarkablo by tho reminder that some of these were set aside because of defectivo attestation instead of mental inca pacity and iiihIno influence of tho maker, ordinarily urged by tho rcpa cions. Tho statistics for tho same period show a yearly average of less than 1 per cent of wills compromised that is, whero the legatees and next of kin agree to split their dif ferences with tho sanction of tho court. These figures, which are un doubtedly indicative of conditions elsewhere, reveal a disposition on tho part of juries to uphold the validity of legal testaments and tend to con tradict the notion of the "man in the street" that his last wishes are apt to he disregarded. LIGHT ON HISTORIC QUESTION Teotimony Seems to Prove Nnpoleon Had Not Planned to March on St. Petersburg. uki orrespondenco has been found m England which throws much light on tho mueh-inootei' question as to whether Napoleon planned a march on St. Petersburg. The correspondence roads: "When Conite do Simoon met Napoleon in Dresden after the emperor's return from Kussia in a sorry, one-horse sledge Do Simeon was then prime m mister of the kingdom of West phalia, and came to inquire after his own soverign, King Jerome Na poleon said to him : 'You probably think I ought to have added to tho collection of cudgels of tho Great Frederick which I brought from Potsdam by getting one of Peter tho Great, which are kept in St. Peters burg. Hut 1 never had the stomach to undertake the invasion of that mud peninsula, most of it morass and water. Besides I had 'become interested in the problems of Huh- sum civil administration; that kept me in Moscow and kept mo too long. Perhaps if I had pushed on I would not be hero now.' " MANY SWEET THINGS IN LIFE. There arc always so many beauti ful things around us and before us that we miss. If we would only open our hearts and minds to them, how different our outlook upon life might be. Especially now with the weight of the world war pressing more and more upon us, do wo need to look for all that is beautiful and good, and if we would do so wo would find our selves less fretful of existence, less intent upon our own ills and troubles and we might bo able to say with tho gypsy man in Lavengro: "Life is sweet, brother. . . . There's day and night, brother, both sweet things; sun, moon and stars, all sweet things; there's likewise 8 wind on the heath." Exchungo. ONE OF THE VICTIMS. "You know what Sherman said about wur?"

KEEP ARMIES "FIGHTING FIT" War Activity of First Importance Is That of Ordnance and Quarter master's Departments. "Without fanfare and with next to no publicity at all," writes Harold Titus in Everybody's, "u chain of colleges and universities that stretches between tho two oceans has been enlisted where men are taught to render service in the ordnance de partment and quarlorniaslcr corps. At intervals of six weeks these schools arc sending out a total of from 400 to BOO men who have un dergone a high-pressure course ol study that has given them a founda tion upon which can be based thai I practical training at arsenal, depot or cantonment, which will make them indispensable in this problem of grub and guns. "Just recall that tho ordnance materials alone for the United States army will require a base depot in Franco which will necessitate an expenditure of $20,000,000. Con fiider tho tonnage that will pasf through such a station, then of the number of men who will bo needed to handle it properly to avoid waste, delay, confusion. Without them the arrffy would bo immobile, unfed, un supplied. By schooling theso men, tho American university has ren dered the army a service of incalcul' able value."

SECRET OF SNAKE'S GLIDE. Did you ever watch a snake glid ing over tho ground in graceful urves, and did you ever slop to Ihink of tho mechanical principles involved in its motion? Tho snako moves along the ground in undulat ing curves produced by the contrac tion of tho longitudinal system of jiuscles in alternate sections of its Dody. That alone would not pro luce a forward motion, however, ivero it not for tho friction of tho icales on tho underside of the snake's Sody against tho roughness of tho ground. Ily bracing tbe rear part of '.he body tho forward part is enabled lo glido forward and by reversing Iho process tho rear part is dragged forward to a new position. l'opulur Science Monthly.
