Entered at th e poetoffice in Decatur, Senators Burton of Ohio and Smoot of Utah, are fighting the tariff bill, but the arguments they advance seem weak and wabbly. They say it is a partisan bill and will not reduce the cost of living. Unassisted by a lobby, their speeches will not go very far. Mr- Mulhall is getting stronger in hie testimony and all the threats of all the powers of the manufacturers association have so far failed to make him back up. Yesterday he caused a sensation when he swore that James f. Watson of Indiana accepted a -c---tainers fee of SIO,OOO while he was a member of congress to represent the interests. Watson denies the charge and says lie will charge Mulhall with perjury. The public will likely find out some tilings before this investigation is over that will be real startling. The report submlt’ed with the new tariff bill is a very <•'-ar statement of the principles that guided the demo-1 cratie members of the senate finance | committee. It will help greatly to a i clearer understanding of the measure. There hive been heavy reductions of I duties, and large additions to the free ! list all of which are designed to re- 1 duce the cost of living and to remove ! some of the restraints that interfere i with the development of trade and in-* dustry, We think that Senator Simmons, chairman of the committee, is < ntitled to great credit for his work , in connection with the bill now before the country. It was assumed by many that he would take a reactionary attitude. So strong was this feeling in certain quarters that it was proposed to displace him from the chairmanship of the committee. It is no more than fair, therefore, to say that he has, as far as the public knows, stood with the tariff reformers end has co-operated loyally with the ■ administration in carrying out its policies—which were the policies of tlie party. At no stage of the proceedings has he shown the slightest dtspot; it ion to obstruct. There has been no suspicion of any attempt to mutilate or weaken the bill, such as we saw twenty years ago under similar conditions. On the contrary, the senate has gone beyond the house, and has given us a better bill than ths house gave us. And the influence of .Mr. Sitninons lias been on the side of genuine downward revision.—lndianapolis News. FOR.

HERE'S HATS OFF TO THE COOKS "The nearest way to a man's heart is through . ills stomach." “When I was a sixteen-year-old high school girl, with mind solely on study and feasting on poetry and ultra-classical literature. f calmly surveyed mankind (in my mind) and opined that he was a very sordid creature regarding whom the above statement was a most appropriate saying," said a Decatur young woman. "Since I have taken my place in the world's work, side by side with the men, I am convinced that the above is a slander; and that it must have been written by a woman who had nothing under the heavens to do but to embroider butterflies into a lace boudoir cap and nibble at fudge, with her little finger daintily pointed away to avoid contact with the said fudge. "1 have ploughed my way, physically through the forld's work, using exhaustive mental force, at the same time, and evening found me tired and dispirited. I went home, the table was invitinglyspread, savory odors steamed forth; I ate. and 10. the blues scurried away, I felt refreshed and able to take up my work again, with cheer. The result of good food, well cooked, worked miracles. "The idea that eating is ‘vulgar’ is a false one. True, there ar high pursuits of the mind; but a mind without a body is nothing more than a ghost, and ghosts accomplish little except to' give ; "creeps." Dr Woods Hutchinson, a well known physician writer in our standard magazines, comes forward with a plea for food, the good old fashioned food. too. He overturns all advanced theories offered. He says a body is like an engine: it cannot work without fuel: put in nothing and you get nothing: you must keep up the power that runs the liody He sets aside many new "notions" regarding diet. He claims that fine, white wheat flour bread is the best in spite of arguments favoring the unbolted; that "red meats" are the tiling, and he even advocates the good old baked beans, and (horror of horrors, to many, he says drinking water at meals, is all right. Os course, all foods should be WELL COOKED, and served in the right proportion as to food values. "In many cases apiietities for intoxicating liquors are created in bodies that are underfed or poorly nourished, and which thus crave a false stimulant, found In strong drink. Many temperance societies in large cities recognize thia, and to offset the craving for drink, have organized eating houses or stands, when- good food is sold to nourish the body and provide the real stimulant. Os course there is danger of intemperance in eating, also; this must be carefully avoided.

"That ‘we dig our graves with our teeth' is not the fault of ‘eating,’ but of over-eating, or eating the wrong kind, or poorly prepared food. "I read with dismay, the account of the good fanners' wives of Madison county revolting against the old-fashioned ‘feeding' of threshers last week, substituting the ‘lunch-basket system.' “What will happen if the good women ‘go ba-k' on the world. It will be equal to the city method of some housewives of ‘opening a can' for dinner, or sending hubby off breaklastless, letting him go to the restaurant and buy a ‘hunk’ of cake, a couple of oranges and a cream puff for breakfast. What would have happened to the cave-woman or ancient woman of long ago if she refused to stay at the home and keep tlie fire burning while hubby sallied forth and braved the wild beasts and slew them to drag home for the mate to cook Methinks he would have been justified in Jetting the wild beasts ‘get her,' or making her do without her share of the animal he slew. Os coure it is difficult to keep the fire burning and prepare and dress the food for eating, but not more so than the man's share, that of slaying it. If she does not choose to do the former, she may be obliged to do both Hats off to the cook; for she is blessed to those who labor and need her help, to keep the ‘power’ supplied." Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Diehl and son, William, accompanied by Mrs. J. W Schooley and daughter. Miss Mabel McLaughlin, motored through from Elkhart Sunday to visit Mrs. J. P. CrlsL mother to Mrs. Diehl and Mrs Schooley. A reunion was enjoyed. ail three daughters being present, the third daughter being Mrs. John Floyd, who lives with the mother. The party returned to Elkhart Monday evening The Y- P. A. social for this evening, on the Evangelical church lawn, has been canceled for the Ladies’ Aid social which had been previously announced for Thursday evening. This will be on the church lawn and ice cream and cake will be served. Home made cakes and candies will also be sold. The Y. P. A. social will be next Tuesday evening. Miss Marie McMullen, of Ft. Wayne who has been visiting at Brazil. Indiana, and at St. Mary's of the Woods, Terre Haute, will arrive tomorrow for a visit with her cousin. Miss Agnes Costello. The Misses Mildred and Hazel LaDelle informally but d<|ightfully entertained a number of girl friends, including Miss Lulu Beachler, of Union City: Irene Gerard of Toledo; Marguerite Gerard, Mrs. Frank Parent and Miss Agnes Costello last evening. Instrumental and vocal music contributed to the good time. Mr. and Mrs. James Bain who are now at home on their farm northeast oi the city, entertained a company of town friends Sunday at dinner in a most hospitable way, the party reported a very fine time Guests were, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Imler, Mr and Mrs. Charles Burdg of Fort Wayne; Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Hoffman, Mr. and Mrs. Al Burdg.

MISS KRICK HEARD STORY. It has developed since the account was published yesterday, of the sui-, cide of Mrs. Laure Van Camp Tunnel, at Cornvallis, Oregon, that mention! of the same was made in a letter] written home fast week, by Miss Jos- i ephine Krick, a nurse at the Hope hospital, Fort Wayne. Miss Krick w rote that she had heard the story from George Pullman, who had called one day at the Hope hospital. She ended her letter by asking her family! "What about it," as she was afraid that the report might be a false ru-1 mor. Having heard nothing of the matter, and fearing that it might have been a false rumor, and not wishing : the same to emanate from their family, they did not make any mention of the affair, thinking that perhaps it might not prove true. —o — COOK’S PAROLE GRANTED.

“No! They are not all the same.’ “Wear-Ever” Aluminum Utensils are different. Os course, aluminum is aluminum; but utensils may differ in purity, in thickness, in handles, in finish. Purity. “Wear-Ever" utensils are 99 per cent. pure. Thickness. They are made thick enough to prevent denting readily; thick enough to guarantee a lifetime of satisfactory service. Handles. I’he handies ot’ “ Wear-Ever " utensils are made of the best tinned steel. Aluminum handles would become too hot —wooden handles would burn off or break. The handles of “Wear-Ever” utensils are grippe! to the utensils by aluminum rivets with large heads. The heads are not sunk into the side of the utensil —the aide remains of uniform thickness, strong enough to hold the handle on firmly for years. Finish. The outside is polished. The inside is hardened by an electrical process which makes the metal WEAIFEVER harder, smoother, le-s zi-<r\ liable to be discolored by food or water containing AcßmlwOh alkali or iron, and more UXkCC7 easily cleaned than would xJolJx lie possible if the utenTSADEMARK were not so finished.
