Concerning The Making of Falls City. Of course you arc interested n "Palls City , but ho\v much ? Have you ever seen the vine gar factory ? tt is worth an lour of your time to walk down .here . and look it over. Go lown to the brewery and turn east and keep going until j'ou come to a. frame building1 by the side ol a draw and there you ire. ire.Yor Yor know when the vinegar actory was first talked of our wealthy men kind a laughed at t. "Shucks , " they said , 'what's the good of trying to nvest any money here. There lin't anything in it for us that we can see. " But someway or other Ned Towle and Tom Gist ind Billy Grcenwald and Henry Smith and a few other foolish 'ellows thought that a factory could make raw material into vinegar as well in Falls Oity as tnywhere else. So they put jfood hard earned cash into it nnd let the wealthy men that tren't worth a tinkers dam to a .own go on laughing. Now you just go down and see what a little nerve and en- .erprise is doing ; just see how nany farmers wagons are lined up waiting to be weighed and unloaded. Just see how many fanners walk into the State jank every day with checks for apples , cull apples at that , and get their money and go out to the merchants and spend a ittle of it on Mollie and the babies. Every dollar of this money is outside capital. The factory sells the vinegar that is made from these apples in St. Louis and Kansas City. The money which they get for the vinegar is the money with which they buy the apples and which the farmers spend with the merchants. So you see it is St. Louis and Kansas City money that is being spent here. And it is worth while remem bering that this money wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Ned Towle and Tom Gist and Billy Greenwald and Henry Smith that were laughed at by our wealthy men who could see nothing in it for them. Just to give you an idea of what the factory is doing let us tell you a few facts. It bought and paid for 71 wagon loads of apples Saturday. Apples that would have been an utter waste if the factory had not been here. The machinery is started at seven in the morning and doesn't stop until midnight. It was originally intended to make eight tanks of vinegar , each one holding 20,000 gallons. These eight tanks are now filled and four more are being built. But here is the best thing of all. We hope our wealth men who have hud so much fun out of'the enterprise will read this. The men who have financed the con cern will make at lenst10 per cent on their investment this year. The success of this enterprise varifies what The Tribune has always contended. As much money can be made in Falls City in any manufactury for which our resources iurnish the raw material as can be made anywhere. Auburn has made as high as 100 per cent a year on her canning factory. So has Barada , so can Falls City. We can furnish the raw material for every canned product just as cheaply and just as abundantly as the hundred and one places where canning factories arc sucessful. All we need is a le\v less laughing rich men and a few more Towles , Gists , Green walds and Smiths. But there are a few men whc are knocking the vinegar fac tory. God bless you there have been knockers in the world evei since a bilious individual tolt old Noah that it wasn't goinj to be much of a Hood anyhow , There are men that knock or Heacock's mill and Ley da iS Whetstine's cigar factory ant Bob Kanaly's factory and Th ( Gilligan company and every other enterprise we have. Speaking of the Gilligan com. jany it might be worth while .o state a few facts about that. When this company was recent- y incorporated for $100,000 , with a paid up capital of seven ty thousand many of the stock- lolders wanted Seattle made the headquarters an most of the work was being done in the lorthwest. John Gilligan would not stand for it. Falls Oity or no where he said. So Falls ity was made the headquarters , and $1200 are spent in salaries in this city by this company every thirty days. These are enterprises that deserve the en couragement of every man who loves Falls City and desires her advancement. Let the knock , ers , whether they are individ uals or a sore newspaper , knock. It is your duty and mine to joost every thing that is worthy of boosting. Let's make every enterprise welcome among us that helps to make this a better and a busier town. Buy home Hour , home cigars , homo every thing. Side step the knocker. If lie must knock let him make it a monologue. Tell him you are too busy boosting to listen to liis tale of woe and you will see busier times for all of us and a better town as the days go b } ' . To Sell Eggs By the Pound. To find a way to have hens lay none but large eggs is the aims of investigations being made at the agricultural experiment stat ion in Missouri. At the same time an agitation is going on among dealers in poultry products to have eggs by the pound instead of by the dozen. A retail grocer , when ques tioned on the subject , said that until recently he had never heard the slightest complaint regarding small eggs , although he had been in the business twenty years. "But lately , " he said , "a number of my prospective cust omers refused to buy because I had only small eggs left in stock , the larger ones having been pick ed out by previous purchasers , 1 have always sold eggs by the dozen , but believe it would be more fair to customers to sell by weight. Some eggs are almost twice the size of others , as 1 can show you. " The grocer took from a crate two eggs , one large and other small , and put them separately upon the scales. The small egg weighed 1J4 ounces , the large one 2/6 ounces. "The customer who gets a dozen small eggs doe ? not get his money's worth , " said the grocer. If he bought his eggs by the pound he would known that he got what he paid for. " If eggs are sold by weight the farmer will have to try and pro duce big eggs only. Scientific men who have experimented de clare that this is by no means impossible. And farmers have had some success in private ex periments. Some are working on the theory that the matter of feeding has much to do with the size of the eggs. Others be lieve that the solution may lie in the crossing of certain breeds. In fact , there are many theories on the subject to which a good many farmers are at present de voting attention. A rather un expected fact in this connection has alreadj- been clearly estab lished , which is that the best egg producers arc the small breeds. They lay more eggs in a year , and as a general thing their eggs are larger and more uniform than those of the larger fowls. Worth Mentioning. A subscriber wrote to a Ne braska paper and wanted to know if "alcohol will disolvc sugar1' "It will , " was the reply. "It will also disolve gold and silver , and brick houses , and horses , and happiness , and love , and everything else worth hav ing. " NOTES ON THE FASHIONS. Linen Parasols Qo with Plainer ShirtWaist - Waist Suits and Lingerie Styles Harmonize. The moat fascinating hats and para sols have como out , seemingly planned and made to go together , yet In rcall- y happening upon that effect In nine cases out of tun. Lingerie styles are responsible for much of it the whole wide range of Ingerlo Ideas echoed and reechoed In ho parasols ; In fainter , though no ess exquisite , tone In lints. Some one ias glibly prophesied the passing of the Huffy parasol , claiming that In stead will bo carried the plainer types. Yet lingerie dresses grow moro pop ular all the while , and rufllca are piled upon rufllcs , wOo'inlngly without end. That prophecy Is hound to bo wrong , for , so long as the summer girl holds court dressed In the sheer est , softest of gowns , which billows and froths about her , just so long will she , In spite of fashion's dlctums , twirl , in lieu ot a scepter , the airiest , uost useless , but wonderfully pictur esque and becoming parasol. Those plainer styles will bo car ried moro than the Huffy OUCH without i doubt just as shirt-waist suits and ho many attractive models of linen suits are moro In evidence In HUH times than those billowy , borulllod , berlbboiied things. Uut ouch will lave HH place anil each will bo car ried you might almost sny worn with the sort of gown It boot nulls. And lint * of linen and ot linen nnd lace will go with them. For the plainest shirt-waist suits the prettiest linen parasol Is made , plain except for a rather largo motif embroidered In ouch panel , or per haps In only ono , with the Initial ! ) cunningly Interwoven , HO as not to lie too conspicuously plain to any one moro In the nature of these clover seals which look Illco an old eastern charm , but which are real- y the three Initials made Into a cabalistic sign. Eyelet work holds Its own In Iho parasol world , and insertions of lace are oven more popular than over , lioth cluny nnd Irish lace used In lavish profusion. Chicago Record- Herald.

Study suitability ot subjects when assigning pictures to their position , as a picture that Is suitable hi ono room may be entirely out of keeping , with the general character and pur pose of another. Do not crowd pictures. Too few aii > preferable to too many , nnd plalr spaces are restful In their effect. Oil paintings , water colors , and line drawings show the ai list's work ai.i' ' what he meant to depict much bcttei when hung Hat against the wall not tilted. Never hang a gloasy picture opposite a window , and never hang any nlcturn so high that It Is haul to look at. Do not hang pictures In pairs , and do not hang two from one hook It tUo wire on both shows the oblique lines made by the two wires are very ob jectionable. A picture which shows heavy shad ows should be hung with the shadows , away from the window , to make the shadows seem natural ones. Pictures are less apt to get skewed when dusting , or by other means , If hung on two hooks inatead of one. The lines of the wire are Irss objectionable , too , as they are horizontal and per pendicular , as are the lines of the frame. When the wires can bo entire ly behind the picture , out of sight , the best effect Is secured. Prairie Farmer. Soft Gingerbread. Hreak a fresh egg In a bowl , etl- with a fork , add a tablespoonful ot molted butter and fill -the bowl half- full of sour cream , Kill to the top with New Orleans molasses , turn lute u larger bowl , beat and add a cupful of Hour Into which has been sifted a lewd teaspoonful of soda. Add a teaspoon- fill each of ginger , allspice and clnnu- inon , and a little salt. Iako In n wlioct. Mousse. A mousse Is a smooth k-e , usually prepared with whipped cream. For a "coffee mousse , " drip enough best grade of coffee to make a cupful quite strong , but very clear ; boil this to a syrup with a cup of ingar , and wuen cool mix Into a pint of whipped cream ; put into a mold and pack In Ice ant a couple of hours. TO EXTEND YOUR LIFE. Thinking- Exhaustive Process aad the Need the Brain Worker Hrui of Repair. According to the theories propound ed recently by Dr. Wllholm Ostwald , of the University ot Lclpslc , in hla lecture before the students ot Colum bia university , the length of human Ifo depends upon the store ot psychic energy which is within the body. The prolongation of llfo at pleasure , ac cording to hla theory , should bo mcro- ly a question of revitalizing the body occasionally with thla mystorloua force , which travels through the nerv ous system , and which experiment ha-'i ahown to bo closely akin to electricity. Dr. Ostwald said In part : "Thinking is the most exhaustive diul ot work , because tt consumes uoro of this force than any physical process. It ban often been found , ipon stopping the process of thought , .hat thlfl energy is transformed into icat In the body , and at the same tlmo .hero Is less need of rconforcomcnt of the supply of energy. When I am en- ; aged In sovcro mental labor , as I have jccn since coming to America , I cat twice nn much as 1 do whim I am not so engaged. This only shows that the ) raln Is constantly using up a supply if the energy , and to keep up brain work wo must keep supplying the energy - orgy from Urn outside. "Most of this energy comes In .hrough the food which wo cat , but every scnso Impression , such as see- ug , hearing or feeling , conveys a cor- aln amount of force Into the body. When the body once receives the en ergy , It acts just llko any other ma chine In Its transferences. The quea- Jon of long llfo then Is simply a ques tion of keeping up the supply. Aa eng as the vital organs are able to assimilate properly , thus providing the body with the force that Is used up In mental and physical processes , person should remain young.

When ray lit- tlu neighbor wishes blankets , It IB i pleasure- Just to sit by and watch Ihu pretty , soft , fluffy things blowIng - Ing on tlio lino. The process is so simple Hint I have learned to do it myself. Choose a warm , sunny , but windy day. This Is Important , If the best results tire wished. While dry , look over them carefully , and put a safety pin In the center of the spoiled spots , For ono pair of blan kets , prepare a suds with halt a cake ot any good white soap , with ono tablespoonful each of. borax and am monia. The suds must bo as hot as you can bear the hand In. Lot tub blankets stand In this for an hour , and It the water Is too cold , add more hot water. Then look up the places where the pins arc , remove these and rub between the hands until the spots disappear. Do not ruben on the board , and do not soap on the blanket direct ; have ready n second tub or suds , and paildlo them around In this , squeezing and pressing be tween the hands ; rlnso In not less than three waters of the same tem perature , running them through the wringer each time. Fasten with at least a dozen pins to the line , and shako frequently while drying. Storing Woolens. This Is the sea son for putting away woolen clothes and furs. No moth balls or other vllc-smclllng substance will bo needed If the garments are hung on the line In the sun , whipped with a light switch , and In the case of clothes all the soil spots carefully cleaned. Then tlo up in clean pillow cases or , better still , fold over the hems and run along on the machine. A chain-stitch machine Is best for this purpose , as It is easily ripped ; but If a lock-stitch is used , have the bottom thread loose. Country Gentleman. Whole Wheat Bread. Scald ono cupful ot milk , add one cupful of water , ono teaspoonful each of salt , sugar and butter. When this Is lukewarm , add one-fourth of a yeast cake dissolved in one-half of ; i cupful of lukewarm water , and enough whole wheat flour to make a th'n ' bit ter. Have this done oy six o'clock am' set In a warm place until ten o'clock. Add enough Hour to make a sot : dough , kneading well. Let It rise until morning. Then stir down and pour Into well-greased pans and let It rise half an hour. 13uke one hour la n moderate oven. To Renew a Mirror. Keep tor this purpose a piece of sponge , a cloth , and silk handkerchief , all entirely free from dirt , as the least grit will scratch the fine surface ot the glass. First sponge It with a little spirits of wine , or gin and water , to clean off all spots ; then dust over it powdered blue tied in muslin , rub 1 * . lightly and quickly off with the clotb , and finish by rubbing with the silk handkerchief. lie careful not to nib the edges of the frame. Moth in Carpets. If the moths have got into a carpet It must bo taken up , thoroughly shaken , and pressed with a llatiron an hot as it will bear without scorching. Then liberally sprinkle the floor where it is to lie with spirits of turpentine , pouring It into any cracks there maybe bo between the boards. For Washing Brushes. Dissolve rock ammonia in the pro portion of ono ounce to two quarts of water. Dip the bristles lightly la this and move backward and forward. Itinso thoroughly in cold water , shake and dry In the sun.
