The bolshevik!, knew that, Esthonia desired peace and what it demanded Was little in such a big country in comparison with the elimination ol one opponent and the opening up o peace. Later on it might not take much of an effort if the spirit moved to eat up that lltle country, but Just at present it is bound to have con siderable influence upon - peace nego tiations with other provinces and par ticularly so with the breaking down of anti bolshevik commanders. Esthonia has apparently made it possible to in crease the peace talk on the part of too scviet government which has been anxious to get negotiations underway tor considerable time. Norwich, Monday, Jan. 5, 1920 CIRCDUTION WEEK ENDING JAN. 3, 1919 10,439 SEE NEED OF ACTION. TVlih the resumption of business by congress this week there are growing evidences that, aside from the rail road legislation which needs to be kept constantly to the front In order that it may be disposed of before the j oads are turned back to the owners ui the end of next month, the peace trfaly Is going to be kept in the lime l.ght. The fact that the president will j;ot recall and resubmit it to this con gress threatened for a time to let the matter remain pigeonholed but there WOMAN m UFE MP IN THE KITCHEN is a feeling amon as well a3 amon:..-i.-ts that action v the document ot 'in, and this t vew f the de rorne from abre Kurope is prep; .-r-r.a ! reserv s may ntik-.

ThU is indicated in the plans that are helr.g set afoot to get an agreement anions the senators on reservations that will permit of ratification and the letting into effect of the treaty for :he benefit of this as well as the other i-nuntrifs. Where there is, smoke ;V:eie is usually lire and where the '. r.-lorj are meeting and conferring ;!pon this matter it is evident that the .r.s beginning to realize its re- onsibility and planning to act. It is me that it was realized that we need protect ourselves, rven in helping . :. ar.d that this important matter -nouiu i-e disposed of that other r ie-s;ng problems may be tackled. AMERICAN SHIPS. Plans by the shipping board to start at onje to dispose of the ships that were seized from Germany and Aus tria in the ports of this country when tho war broke out, numbering about 30. indicates a move that will help to eliminate the competition between private capital and the government In the operation of our merchant ma rine. In disposing of these vessels which have been engaged Jn transport service it will be stipulated that they must fly the American flag and be owned by Americans, and it will be required in addition that they be Used en routes designated by the govern ment. Whether these requirements will have any influence upon the fig ures at which they wiTl be sold may depend upon the prospects of busi ness in the service insisted upon by the government. Naturally private capital is not going to buy ships for the sake of operating them where the government wishes unless there Is a probability of a proper return being received, and at the same time it is to be realized that there is likely to be a big demand and good prices paid for ships that can be operated on routes about which there is no question. Evidence is furnished to the effect nevertheless that the shipping board is alivo to the necessity of establish ing new transportation lines if the country is going to increase its trade and maintain such a merchant marine as it ought to have. From all indica tions it is intended that our flag shall be seen in more ports of the world than was .the case before the war. These 30 ships including tho largest afloat can be made to do much in the development of our foreign trade. These can help in improving the ser vice between this country and South Americat for which the South Ameri cans have been loudly calling and for whose trade we have been making strong bids, but apparently it is not solely in one but In all directions that it is intended to increase transporta tion facilities. It is a move that should result in meetings long felt need. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE Warm lemons before squeezing. You will get more juice. To prevent delicate glassware from cracking when washing it, slip it into the water edgewise instead of bottom first. Salt moistened with lemon juice will take almost all stains off . the hands. Tn mnke k cloves look like new after they ha been cleaned, rub- over with white of egg. . Potatoes do not stain the hands if peeled while suite dry and not thrown into the water till afterward. When salad dressing is liable to curdle a small pinch of soda dropped in will prevent it from doing so. To keep doughnuts from burning drop a piece of raw potato in the burning fat and you wjll have no trouble with them. For mending hard substances like metal or glass there is nothing more satisfactory than melted alum. Simply meit the alum over an intense beat, and apply while hot. An ivory ban- die to a knife wh.ch had lessened was mended in this way many years ago, and has been in use ever since, with out breaking or lossenirg. Slicing hard cooked eggs will be easy and successful if you will heat your knife in ery htt water before using It. Do not wipe the water from the knae. suits. Filet laces will soon begin to de cline. Cape wraps are as much favored as ever. "Caucht fringe" appears as trim ming on many mantles.- Some long stik tunics come within two inches of the foundation 6kirt. SauirreT. it is predicted, will be used extensively as a trimming for autumn suits. "The wide tucks of skirts are some times made to tand up like cuffs. Narrow ribbon embroider- is being used wth considerable success on frocks of advance styles. The buttoned sweater is .worn now more than the slip over. A pretty hat of taupe velvet has both crown and brim shirred. Very high collars are seen on some of the smartest dresses. TJnderbrim trimming is being shqwn on some of the advance hat models. In one unusual hat a plume passes through a slash in the brim, and taxl ess to a wide band of velvet which encircles the "throat..

Sometimes A little fur cape is to be part of a cloth coat a de tachable part, that may be put on and taken off the coat at yaur will. of honor to be absolutely ignorant of her age. . - BABIES' FLANNELS. - Winter flannels for babies should be of only medium weight wool. The heaviest flannels often cause a baby to perspire, and then to take cold when there Is the slightest draft ot air. REMOVING INK. If just spilled ink may be removed by taking cotton bating and sopping as much tip as posible. Then take clean batting, dip in milk and keep sopping up, changing the cotton often. Then rub until the spot disappears. Now wash in warm water and a little soap, rinse and rub dry. If dried in it c.annot be removed un'ess on a white cpot. Tou may then use salt of lemon or lemon juice and stracb. This will remove it easily. , RUNNING RIBBONS. When preparing to launder a gar ment tho lace of which is run with ribbon, tie a piece of white cotton string to one end of the ribbon. Then wheu the ribbon is withdrawn, the string takes the place of the ribbon. Alter the garment is washed an end of the ribbon is tied to one end of the string. Then when the later is pulled out tho lace is quickly run with the ribbon. TO TEMPT APPETITES. The patient who cannot take need ed olive oil, plain usually enjoys it when combined with egg in a spoon ful of mayonnaise served on a bit of fruit, such as banana, .apple, pine apple or prune. For the kiddie who obiects to cereals, try serving them with chocolate flavored milk, a tea spoonful of cocoa with the sugar, or instead a little maple syrup. ' SCORCHED PANS, Do not use soda, for the scorched saucepan. It will only tend to make it burn agatn when used. You win have better results if you All the pan with cold water and a'rtd a, liberal spoonful of salt. Let the pan soak for twenty four hours ' " v" and the burn ed portion will com Oft easily.

Probably the most important change affecting the average taxpayers is in the normal rate, the exemptions of Jl.OOO for single persons and $2.0ft0for married persons and heads of families remaining the same as for 191$. The normal rate for 1919 is 4 per cent on the first i 90ft of net income above the exemptions ami & per eent. on the remaining net income. The normal rate for 191S was 6 and 12 per cent., respectively. This applies to every citizen and resident of the United States. Alien non-residents receiving income from sources within the United States are taxed to the full S per cent on the income from such sources. The surtax rates, which range from t per cent, on the amount ot net in come between $5,000 and "SnOO to 5 1 W.i i. 1 i - ' " per cent Norwich's Best Drug Store ...........

Aj.parcntiy te machinery cf the ,-ovemment has been set in motion throughout the country for the pur- ; cse o: putting an end to the activi 7..s of those who have been silently ;.?.! openly at work in advocacy of the rthrovr o our government. It has isk'-n a long time to get this started i- to overcome the idea that such Cupie should not be tolerated in-thelr -.ircrorous efforts. Among the thousands who have been rounded up it will not be surprising if .i nn5iur-rab!c number are relc-ased r vnr reason or another since it can ' ! rtalii-.fi, ss has been shown iu one ase where a gathering of men called t -r Icc::im.iic businf-ss purposes but in a hajl where radicals had been l:-.idin3 iorth, that mistakes can be inane. Auin it is probable that many will bo turned over to stafo authori 1 s lur punir hment or that the cases -.v;"l be within the province of the fed eral court, as might bo expected in ase those caught in the net were cit irons. but where the aliens are caught in this def.arre of law and order to ;i.o df-gree where they are a menace to the- nation too prompt measures rannot be taken for their deporta l.ca. It is an expensive job corraling and porting such people but it is the i he-ipest method in the end. There is ro place for them in this country. We lannot afford to permit them to con tinue their work unmolested for they are aiming at the destruction of the vrry foundation' of the nation when lh;y attack our institutions and gov ernment and the quicker such a dafl-p-trous element can be gathered in and jiaced where they belong the better it will be for the country. There have been scattered raids on previous occasions as the result of which some of the undesirables have ben removed but the widespread character cf the latest move Indicates a realization of the seriousness of not checking their operations. There tthouid be no holdup until all of the dangerous radicals are under arrest cr until all those who ought to be and can be are deported. A WILD RUMOR. Jast what the object of the naming of Viscount Grey as the special am- bassador of Great Britain to this country was has not been disclosed, except that it was desired to have one cf its strongest men look after its af fairs in connection with this govern ment as the result of the develop ments following the war and the mat ters pertaining to the treaty of peace. Eut -whatever it was it did not suc ceed through no fault of the ambas sador's and he has returned homo. lUit that has not prevented one rtory coming out of Washington to a Xew "i'oik paper to the effect that the special ambassador came here for the purpose cf getting the support of the administration for a loan of $13,000, 000,000 or fonr billion more than was loaned to the allies during the war. and that he was successful in his fiut-st. That such a report should be den;l and called a'osurd is not sur priHing. It should be realized that much more than the administration's support would bo required in order to put through any such loan. It would rest with congress to sanction any such proposition so that it would mako little difference with conditions as tlify are whether the approval of l he administration was secured or not.

Both the dresg p?.od and the silk mills have? quite decided to stick to staple and semi-staple materials for some months to come. The reasan for this is that conditions are . consid ered too abnormal to warrant making crorvdft that miaht depreciate consid erably if there was a sudden change in the etuation. The manuiacturers in both lines seem content to let the fancy and novelty business go to English and French houses, despite the. Dossible loss in prestige that may result.

When you rip an old garment, first cut a few stitches with tne scissors then Pin the material to your knee and rip with a sharp knife. ' Blankets should be darned wits fine yarn, and when their edges-become worn th?y stould bo tound up with ribbon. If it m necessary to put pat ches on' make them out of the good parts of old blankets or old flannel garments, and herring-bone them, don't hem thefn. Hems are too bulky and they cause the patch to pucker. Men's" shirts wear out soon where the points of the collar chafe them, while thi rest of the shirt is almost is good as new and tho worn spots are in a place which cannot bo hid. Cut two pieces from the tail of th5 lack of the shirt. Sew these pieces on he front like p. bosom, right over t'a". worn soots. This is easy to do, and when tne shirt : ironed it looks as good ac" new. INCOME TAX FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW No. 1. . Were yon one of thousands of per sons who last year, with unquestioned honesty of purpose, tiled an incorrect income tax return? Are you. or have you beena claimant for refund of tax es overpaid? Have you been called upon by the bureau of internal revenue for payment of amounts owed the gov ernment through inadvertence or omis sions in making out your income tax form? To sum it up. have you ex perienced trouble of any kind in filing yoi;r income tax return for 1918? If so, this is written for your benefit and for the benefit of more than 3.000,- 000 taxpayers who, on or before March 15, will file income tax returns for the year 1919. It is certain a percentage of these returns will be incorrect. It is equally certain that the percentage of errors may be largely reduced if taxpayers wilt acquaint themselves with the income tax provisions of the act bf Feb. 24. 1919, known as the revenue act of 1918, which provide for the collection of taxes for the year 1919 and subsequent years Bureau Ai.ds Taxpayers.
