HIS WIFE
Stopped Moat Terrible Suf
fering by Getting HerLydia
E. Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound.
Denison, Texas. "After my Httlo
girl was born two years ago I began Buf
fering with femalo
trouble and could
hardly do my work.
I was very nervous
but just kept drag
ging on until last
summer when I got
wbero I could not do
my work. I would
have a chill every
day and hot flashea
and dizzy spells and
my head would al
most burst. I got where 1 was almost
a walking skeleton and Kf a was a burden
to mo until ono day my husband's Btep
elstcrtold my husband if ho did not do
something for mo I would not last long
and told him to get your medicine. So ho
got Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetablo Com
pound for me, and after taking tho first
three doses I began to improve. I con
tinued its use, and I have never had any
female trouble since. I feci that I owe
my life to you and your remedies. They
did for Tho what doctors could not do
and I will always praiso it wherever I
go." Mrs. G. O. LOWERY, 419 W. Mon
terey Street, Denison, Texas.
' If you are suffering from any form of
femalo ills, get a bottlo of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and
commence tho treatment without delay.
Ordering Meals by Telephone.
A enfo in I'lnlnfleld, N. J 1ms In
stalled n unique system for tho con
vonlenco of Its diners. Whether tho
plan will eventunlly be welcomed by
the dining public 1ms Ktlll to bo proved,
but It has t'le merits of Ingenuity and
novelty. Each table In this enterpris
ing enfo Is connected directly with the
kitchen and the head chef by means of
a telephone. The fastidious diner, In
stead of trusting the fine points of his
order to a mero whiter, tells them di
rectly Into tho ear of tho chef. Thus
ho can have his steak cooked to tho
exact turn he likes and get exactly
tho proper number of drops of season
,lng n the sauces.
Nothing Is calculated to jar a pretty
girl like the masculine attentions be
stowed upon another girl who Is
homely.
Going It Too Hard
We nro inclined nowndays to "go
It too bard;" to overwork, worry,
eat and drink too much, and to
neglect our rest and sleep. This
fills the blood with uric acid. Tho
kidneys weaken and then it's a siege
of backacho, dizzy, nervous spells,
rheumatic pains and distressing
urinary disorders. Don't wait for
worso troubles. Strengthen the
kidneys. Use Doan's Kidney Pills.
An Iowa Case
James Pollock,
Traer, la., eaya: "The
loast cold seemed to
eettlo on my kidneys
and brought on an at
tack of backache. Of
ten when I stooped,
sharp pains seized ma
and I could hardly
straighten. The kidney
secretlonB passed Irre
gularly, too. I have
used Do'an'B Kidney
Pills at tlieoe times
and have ' always had
lino relief."

ALKALI WATER NOT HARMFUL
Results Obtained In Experiments Con
ducted by Dairy Department of
South Dakota College.
The dairy husbandry department of
tho South Dnkotn Stnto college haa
conducted experiments to determine
tho effect of alkali water on dairy
cnttlc. Tho results of these experi
ments, ns published In station bulle
tin 147, show that tho drinking of
alkali water by dairy cows did not pro
duce "alkali disease," or even tho
slightest Indication of It.
The postmortem examination and
Fine Yard and House for Cows.
analyses of the vital organs of the
cows used In the experiments revealed
nothing abnormal. Considering the
fact thnt tho strongest alkali well wn'
ter.wns used it Is reasonable to con
elude that the alkali disease of cows
is not produced by drinking alkali wa
ter. This conclusion does not include Wtt'
tcr which at times collects In partly
drled-up ponds.
Such water Is usually very strong
and cows should not be permitted to
become so thirsty as to bo forced to
drink it.
IMPORTANT ARTICLE OF FOOD
Butter Is Three-Tlmes-a-Day Necessity
on Tables Cleanliness Is
Great Essential.
Good butter, next to good bread, It
tho most Important article of food,
and ns it Is a three-tlmes-a-day ne
cessity on our tables, Its proper male
Ing Is of great Importance. Successful
butter-ranking depends most of nil on
cleanliness of stables, cows, mllkcrt
nnd palls, along with a clean, well
ventllnted dnlry room and utensils
Everyone needs fat, and butter Is the
most wholesome ns well as most ngree-
able way of taking it into the system.
Cream absorbs whatever odor sup
rounds It and then passes It on to the
butter, so milk should not be kept In
the kitchen where cooking Is done.
nnd cspeclnlly if the men of tho funilly
have the hnblt of smoking there, ns
this gives It n very dlsngrcenblo taste
Hutter made from well-rlponed cream
has the best flavor, and to obtain thlt
ripening before the cream is so old aa
to become rancid, n "stnrter" of a
tablespoonful or two of thick sour milk
Is usually added to tho now milk when
set to raise.
Butter churned from perfectly sweet
cream hns less flavor, but some people
prefer It. It Is n mistake to churn
butter nt too high u temperature in
order to make it come quickly, for It
contains more buttermilk, is apt to be
greasy nnd pale In color. If tho cream
must be kept for several days before
churning, It should be In a cool place.
If for any reason the churn Is not per
fectly sweet after thorough washing
and scalding, rlnso it well with cold
lime water.
KEP DAIRY UTENSILS CLEAN
Steam Can Be Utilized Effectively in
Washing Different Vessels
Keep Covers Off.
Always have some good stiff brushes
that will lit the different utensils nnd
keep the scams In tho tin absolutely
clean. If one hns steam It may be
used very effectively In sterilizing the
utensils. After rinsing in scalding wa
ter of sterilization with steam, place;
the utensils Jn n clean, sunny place to
dry. Do not wipe them with a cloth
or stand them right cldo up on the
racks. Tho heat Imparted by tho hot
water or steam will cause them to dry
quickly and by being placed bottom
eldo up on tho racks very little dust
and dirt can get on tho Inside of the
utensils. Never put tho covers on the
cans or pnils ufter washing them.
Thcro arc few worse odors than a
fairly clean milk cun that has been
shut up until It has become musty.

DELICIOUS FRESH PEPPER.
You will probably recall that Voter
Piper picked his peck of peppers,
pickled and tho
day was when
p e p p o r a wero
only used in thnt
way. Tho sweet
red or green pep
per of our gar
duns Is not ouly
wholcsomo but
adds another do
llclously flavored vegetablo to our list
of good things.
A touch of chopped green pepper
In a cnbbngu salad takes It out of
tho ordinary into the field of uncom
mon. A few strips of tho red pep
per added to tho lettuco before put
ting on tho French dressing makes
a most delightful flavor and bit of
color, which always adds value to any
dish.
Peppers cooked with onions Is a
dish worth trying. Cut the green pep
pers Into strips and add to tho boil
ing onions when uenrly done. Drain
and servo with cream, salt and pa
prika. Peppers Stuffed With Mushrooms.
Perhaps somebody may discover n
more delicious dish, but ut present
thl3 holds a ilsi plnce. Cut pep
pers In halves and parboil them, then
fill with creamed mushrooms, the
fresh ones, sprinkle lightly with but
tered crumbs nnd brown In tho oven.
Servo these to your very best friend.
Green Pepper Sandwich. Mince
finely two lnrgo sweet peppers, re
jecting tho pltli and seeds; fold Into
this n cupful of mayonnaise, seasoned
with chopped chives and parsley.
Spread tho buttered bread with the
mlxturo and fold in a damp towel
until ready to serve.
Pepper Salad. Select four largo
Bweet peppers ; cut tlieni in half longi
tudinally, remove tho pltli and seeds
and plunge them In Ico water until
tbey nro ready to use. Drain and fill
a few minutes before serving time
with tho following: Two cucumbers,
cut In small cubes; one hard-cooked
egg, and one cupful of pecan meats.
On top of each after filling place a
generous spoonful of mayonnaise,
seasoned with minced chives nnd
parsley.

8UCCE8SFUL CAKE MAKING.
How rarely one meets a perfect cake
and yet crJces nro usually tho first ac
complishment of tho now,
cook. A girl loVcSj to
mako n cake long beforo
she appreciates the value
of a well made loaf of
bread.
To bo a good cake
maker ono must 11 rut bo
accurate, n good mixer,
and a faithful watcher of tho oven.
A perfect cake must hnve lino delicate
texture, very tender nnd free from any
suggestion of sogglness, yet moist. It
must bo light ns a feather, and of good
flavor, good to look at and more dell
clous to the taste. With all these
'qualifications It Is certainly nn art to
produco a perfect cake; It takes a deft
hand with careful attention to detail.
Tho famo of a good cook was not
earned by making good cakes, for It Is
a more desirable accomplishment to
Lbo ablo to broil a steak, properly cook
an egg or prepare a pleco of toast, or
highest of all mako a stnndnrd loaf
of brend.
Some of tho main points to observe
In making enko it will bo profitable to
dwell upon. Havo nil of the Ingredi
ents ready as well as the utensils be
foro starting In, because at the critical
moment something vital may be lack
ing which will spoil the result. Have
tho butter, If used, soft, not melted,
but so soft that It quickly creams ; add
tho sugar gradually, mixing It well;
havo extra eggs so that If there should
bo a stale ono you need not leuvo to
get another. Break all eggs In a small
dish ono nt a timo so that no acci
dent such ns putting a bnd egg into a
dish with several good ones, occurs.
Mako sure that tho oven is ready
by tho tlmo tho cake Is ready for it.
The success of a cako depends largely
upon Its baking. Ono may put caro
into tho mixing and making of a cako
and ruin it by careless attention to it
when it Is in tho oven. Cakes that
contain a largo amount of eggs, espe
cially whites stiffly beaten, should
bako In a slow oven. Cakes that con
tnin fruit and molasses should also
bako In a alow oven. Cakes that re
quire slow cooking nro bcHt baked In
sheet Iron or heavy tin as they aro
better protected from the direct heat.
8pIco Cakes. Beat an ogg, add two
thirds of a cupful of molanses, two
thirds of a cupful of ougar, two-thlrdB
of a cupful of soft buttor, and two
nd one-half cupfuls of flour and a
cupful of milk; two teaapoonfuls of
baking powdor and two-thirds of a
tcaspoonful of soda, ono tnblospoonful
of mixed splco, a tablespoonful ot
lemon Julco or vinegar; mix woll and
bako in gem pans.

len. WAYS WITH TOMATOE8.
Tho subject of tomato d'shes lu one
that cannot bo exhausted ns some new
delightful combination Is
always being discovered.
As n salad tho tomato Is
especially fitted. Tho
color, tho refreshing
acid, and tho lluvor all
mako It most appealing
(to tho appetite.
Tomatoes with Cucum
Mtornnto slices of tomatoes
bers.-
with 'cucumbers on n snlud plato and
servo with mayonnaise mixed with
whipped cream.
Thick slices of tomnto heaped with
chopped cucumber nnd onion nnd
served with any highly seasoned snlud
dressing makes a most tasty salad.
Tomato Aspic. Put Into a saucepan
two quarts ot tomatoes and let cook
until soft; strain and return to tho
heat, ndd ono teaspoonful of celery
seed, two bay leaves, one-half tea
spoonful of cloves, nnd cayenne to
taste; cook llvo minutes, then pour
over n box of gelatin which hns been
softened In n cupful of cold water;
strnln and fill n border mold nnd let
stand on lco four hours. When ready
to serve dip the mold quickly Into hot
witter and turn tho aspic out on to n
platter or chop plate, fill the center
with shredded lettuce and serve with
salad dressing. This mny bo molded
In Individual molds and served' on
heart leaves of lettuce.
Dressed Tomatoes. Cut shapely,
even sized tomatoes In halves; scoop
out a part of cuch and mix with salad
dressing, then fill the tomatoes, chill
nnd servo ench on crisp lettuce with
plenty of salad dressing.
Italian Tomato Soup. Cook one
onion In butter, but not brown; ndd
two quarts of tomatoes alid a quart
of water ; cook 20 minutes then strnln,
ndd a dozen cloves, or ground cloves
may bo added, nt tho last; thicken
with two tnblcspoonfuls of Hour nnd
salt and sugar to taste. Boll live min
utes nnd ndd n tcaspoonful of wor
ccstershlre snuco and servo nt once.
Stuffed tomatoes may bo served, us
ing large firm ones, nnd fill with pota
to salad, cut very ilno and mixed with
cooked green corn, a little onion nnd
seasonings.

JELLY MAKING.
Thero nro two elements needed to
make good jelly. These aro pectin
and acidic Juices.
When theso nro
present tho sue
cess or failure de
pends almost en-
v vuH "mount ot sugnr
hrpiI. Thr nlfl ruin
of a measure of
Julco to a measure
of sugar has no doubt been tho causo
of most of our poor Jellies.
A given volume of Julco which con
tnlns a certain amount of pectin can
uso n definite proportion of sugar only.
Currants nnd partly rlpenod grapes
aro rich In pectin, and nro fairly acid
so that tney usually demand equal
measures, while three-fourths to ono
will ho the proper proportion for rasp
berries nnd blackberries. Much de-i
ponds upon tho fruit Itself.
When It Is necessary to add water
to fruits boll tho Julco until It Is by
appearance and tasto ready for tho
addition of sugar.
After tho winter's supply ot grnpo
Julco has boon made, cover tho pulp
with water and uso for Jelly or n good
marmolado may bo mado from this by
product
Tho more thoroughly tho Julco Is
clarified by skimming beforo tho sugar
Is added the better from an economical
stnndpolnt.
Sugar Is heated bofore adding to
tho Julco to save tlmo In the cooking
process.
By using sour apple Julco with fruits
too swet, or lacking In pectin a most
pnlatublo article may bo prepared.
Tho best quick tost for tlmo to re
move Jelly Is when tho Jelly breaks
off as a portion of It Is dropped from
tho spoon. Tho time-honored one of
cooling n Httlo In n saucer is not n
safo one, for many things may hnp
pen to tho hot Jolly waiting on tho
stove. Tlmo Is too precious at this
stage to wnsto It in long experiments,
Tho length of tlmo for boiling de
pends upon tho kind of fruit Julco,
nnd tho richness (or amount of wn
ter It contains).

"New Post Toasties"
will bring a package of breakfast flakes with a delicious
new corn flavour flakes that don't mush down when
milk or cream is added, nor are they "chaffy" in the
package like the ordinary kind.
These New Pott Teantics are manufactured by a new
process using quick, intense heat which raises tiny
bubbles over each flake, the distinguishing character'
istic. And the new process also brings out a new com
flavour, never tasted in corn flakes of the past.
Try a handful dry they're good this way and the
test will reveal their superior flavour. But they're
usually served with milk or cream.
