A man had been very badly treated by the proprietors of a boarding house, and when in temporary finan cial difficulties had been forced to leave. Some time later, smiled upon by fickle fortune, he achieved success md prosierity as a popular dentist, and soon found means to revenge his former landlady's slight The method he' adopted was simple but extremely effective, quite ruining: the business of his enemy. Directly opposite the boarding house he opened his new dental establishment and upon the largest window in bold letters ap peared the following notice: "Steel pointed boarding house teeth a spe cialty!" Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that the beaut' and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste1 of varying thickness, which not only destroys the. appearance, but also affects the wear ing quality of the goods. This trou ble can he entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its great er strength than other makes. Daily Thought A Httlt fun.

This shows that warrants tp the amouut of $220,915 have been paid off in excess of the warrants issued, but this is due to the heavy payment of wararnts issued against the tern-, porary school fund. This issue was ,made last May, the amount being $457, 829. The warrants' were paid just after June 1, bringing the payment in this six months' business and the is suance in the preceding period. As a matter of fact, the outstanding general fund warrants drawing interest amount to a greater sum than six months ago. June 1 the general fund warrants drawing interest amounted to $1,183,544, while at this lime the amount is $1,385,$64, a difference of $201,520. This, however, was to have been expected, and is no indication that the state debt is increasing: The large appropriations of the last legis lature have been .paid during the last six months, while the collections are always less for this period of the year. During the next six months the col lections wil be larger nd the amount of warrants' issued less. Following are the balances in the suspended ac count due to the defalcation of Treas urer" Bartley and the failure of the fol lowing banks: Capital National bank of Lincoln, First National bank of Orleans, Merchants Bank of Lincoln, Globe Loan and Trust company of Omaha, Buffalo County National bank of Kearney: General fund 3 24.S07.89 Sinking fund 18V.101.75 Temporary school fund Z5.671.3S Live stock indemnity fund. 3,84.1.39 Permanent school fund 259,842.87 Permanent university fund.. 9,775.92 Agricultural college endow ment fund 4n.368.Cl Normal endowment fund 12.600.09 Total .1559,711.91 State Building Associations. Secretary Royse in his annual re port on the condition of building and loan associations compliments the or ganizations on their prosperity. The report shows the condition of sixty six building and loan associations for the year ending June 30, 1907. Five new associations were organized dui ing the year. There were 315,372 shares in force June 30 and the num ber of borrowing stockholders had in creased 1,739 and the non-borrowing C.492. The increase in assets during the year was $2,461,102. "There are some practices obtain ing among the associations' which I believe are subject to just criticism' says the secretary. "For instance. It is the practice of some associations having agents' soliciting loans to col lect a membership fee in advance. This practice works no hardship and gives no ground for criticism where tn loan is accepted. However, where the loan is rejected for any reason it is a hardship on the proposed borrower and could hardly be classed a square deal. This department receives nu merous complaints against this prac tice 'and believes associations should prohibit it, if for no other reason than it leaves' a suspicion often in the minds of the applicants that the mem bership fee is the ruling incentive with the agent If the loan is rejected the membership fee should be relurnd to the proposed borrower." Governor Handles Large Sums. Since last January, when he became the chief executive of the state. Gov ernor Sheldon has received from -the national government $41,412.05 for the benefit of the soldiers' homes. This money has been paid on the basis of $100 for each member of the homes. When he took the office Governor Sheldon received from Governor Mickey a total of $23,537.40, which had been received from the govern ment to pay off the enlisted men in the Third Xebraska regiment for the time they went into the service as National Guard members until they were mustered into the army. He has paid out during the year all of this except $10,845.85. Every .effort is be ing made by the governor and by the adjutant general to locate the soldier boys to whom this money belongs, but the work is proving a tedious job. Sugar Beet Crop Dwindles. The figures of the crop production in Nebraska, as returned .to the labor commissioner by his correspondents throughout the state, indicate almost a lapse in the growing of sugar beets, owing to the difficulty in securing labor and the closing up of large beet sugar factories. The production for 1907 was only 30,609 tons. Asks Contest Be Dismissed. The Tri-State Land company, which has the largest irrigation canal in Ne braska, with headquarters in Scott's Bluff county, has filed a motion with the State Board of Irrigation, on the ground that the company's water rights have been adjudicated by the board and the supreme court. Mr. Stewart seeks to forfeit, the franchise of the Tri-State company, alleging that it is a non-user of the water ap propriated. Motion to dismiss the contest will be heard December loth, or soon after. State School Apportionment. State Treasurer Brian certified to the state superintendent that there is 4264,549.53 in the temporary school fnnd to be apportioned to the various counties for school districts Last De cember the amount was $251,806.54, or $12,74259 less than the present ap portionment The funds will not be paid out until the state superintend ent certifies' the amount to be paid in each county. He has twenty days in which' to do this. Then receipts will be mailed by the auditor to county treasures before" warrants are issued. ; ? -, 5.1 Deputy PJeree says fke, National Mutual Fire Iururaace coas paay of Omaha, was advent wkeu it was examined by,Us(departateatitkeJ flrst of the year.

Its sworn1 state- f, ment Showed 'a surplus ever "all lia bilities of $18.132.74;:'ThV company was therefore licensed for 'the year An exanrinatkm of the company was made in June 'oflthis year by the ex aminer of the insurance department This examination showed an impair ment of '$15,000; It was thought at that time that by 'the observance of conservative .methods and strict econ omy, the company could repair ttie eiisting deficit J r given a little time. I The conpany" was" advised that an other examination' would be made in the course or a few months and es pecial attention was called to the rec ommendation made 'by the examiner and urging tee necessity of rigjrl economy in the matter of management expenses. Another examination of the company was begun -November 9. but was not completed untilkNovember 29. It was found that the losses incurred during the. last five months and more especially-since August 15, were disastrous and for the entire year 'the losses in curred equal 80 per cent of the prem ium income. It was also found that the ex penses had increasd rather than" -decreased since the previous examina tion and that for the year they were equal to 70 per cent of the net income. Expense of State Wards. The per capita cost for maintain ing the institute for the deaf and dumb for the six months ending No vember 30 was $84.24 according to the report of Superintendent White. Officers' salaries amounted to $30.28 per capita; employes' wages per cap ita, $13.87; maintenance, $40.06 per capita.- The total amounted expended for officers' salaries was $5,420; em ployes' wages, $2,843.65; for mainte nance, $7,171.15. For repairs and im provements $1,122.24 was expended. Farm products consumed were valued at $59.65. The total amount expend ed by this institution for the six months, excluding repairs, was $15, 079.60. The total cost of running the state school for the blind at Nebraska City for the last six month's was $7,47.84, a per capita cost of $137.91. For gen eral repairs, addition to the main building and a tubular fire escape, $5, 934.31 was spent. This is shown by. the semi-annual report of Superin tendent .J. T. Moray, filed with the governor. An addition to the main building cost $3,701; general rehire, $1,433.31; f.e escape, $800. Of the appropriations of 1905. $7,063 lapsed into the' state treasury. The institu tion rented two acres of land, expend ed $11 for rent and seed and raised $57.50 forth of vegetables, berries and cane. From the brcom shop, whose machinery and materal is valued at $580, there was sold $S5.52 worth of brooms. Warden Beemcr Reports. The semi-annual report of Warden A. D.Becmer, filed with the governor, shows that for the six months ending November SO, 1907, convicts of the penitentiary earned $1S,15G.99, of which $9,082.54 is unpaid by the prison contractor. The total 'cost for this period for maintenance was $27,696.33. The total per capita cost for the six months was $38.72; per capita earn ings for the same period was $50103, making an actual net per capita cost to the state of $48.G9. The warden re ported that the convicts had earned in making repairs and improvements around the institution $9,007.60 and for the value of farm produce con sumed, $3,872.07, he credits the insti tution. Claims against the' mainten ance fund amounted to $4,983.10; against the general repair fund, $432.76; office and contingent expense fund, $89.32. Secretary Junkin Reports. Secretary of State Junkin told the last legislature he believed he could colect $60,000 in two years in fees if the law was amended so as to in crease the' fees for filing articles of incorporation, requiring' the refiling of brands and make the $1 license fee for motor vehicles an 'annual license. These changes were made in the law and the estimate of the secretary of state is being closely approachd. His semi-annual report shows the collec tion of $15,354.49 in sir months. This with $12,373.72 -received, during the previous six months makes a total of $27,908.21 in fees received during the year. This is about double the amount ever received in one year by any pre vious secretary of state. Tn office ex pnses for the six months exclusive salaries amounted to $1,465.97. The fees received during .the six months aggregated $15,354.49. Mother Appeals for Son. Mrs. M. A. Loar of Leavenworth, Kas., has written Governor Sheldon a very pathetic letter asking for the re lease from the penitentiary of her son, who was sent up, from Greeley county. The son has an application pending before the governor for a pardon. The mother writes that she fully expected the son to be home by Thanksgiving but inasmuch as he was not she asks the executive to cheer her declining years by allowing him to come to her in time to eat Christ mas dinner at his old home. State Superintendent J. L. McBrien has issued a volume of 188 "pages con taining information, instructions' and the law relating to normal, training in high schools. It is designed to be a text book on' suchtraining for those interested in the work. One hundred and six schools were asked to make a showing of their equipment and abil ity to do this work. Sixty-four schools were recognized by the state superin tendent as being, qualified for the work. These schools have a total of 1,103 in the normal training classes. classes.

'The' iJfjn edges of the hole should, not" be cut c 'away, thus making -a square or Imund darned patch; Instead, the Jagged edges are leftand the needle woven; skilfully In ;and out until -thpace Is 'filled. Start this mending one-half, inch outside the hole and continue until the, rent is en tirely t surrounded. -These stitches must be taken so they will not show on the.-right side, :and 4hev.,aeedle should bepassed through the raised pattern of the-damasK. taking up the tthreads as though one, were darning, and in working baclr those left are taken up, andsb'oniist as one would darn. 'This " strengthens the linen around the hole and prevents the darned hole from tearing away as is always, the case when it is not rein forced;' tus making, the last state worse than the first. The holes thatTcome from ordinary wear and tear are mended. In this way, but accidents will happen and jagged tears and clean knife cuts are, sure to appear some time. These require a different treatment If the knife cut is .discovered before it goes to the laundry the trouble of repairing is lessened, for all that is necessary then is to draw the .edges together on the right side, baste a strip of cardboard over the rent and darn neatly on the wrong side, as di rected above. In this case the rein forcing previously 'described may be dispensed with, as the linen will not be thin on the edges of the cut as it always Is around the edges of a hole. Of course, one must go outside of the cut sufficiently far to give the neces sary strength, but the, aim in this work Is to conceal the darn. When complete, cut away the stitches on the right side that were used to draw the edges together. Supposing such a rent has not been discovered until after the linen has been laundered, then the simple darn ing will seldom suffice. Instead darn the cut and at the back- hem down neatly a strip of white linen tape. This should entirely surround thfe slit. Three cornered or other jagged tears are more neatly mended if the tape is used. When possible do the darning first and apply the tape after ward, but. when the jagged edges are very open the better way is to sew the tape at the back and darn down to it on the right side. Quilting Ruffles on Machine. Hem the strips of goods which you wish to plait and proceed as for com mon machine ruffling, making the stitch long and loose. Set the ruffler at its highest notch and after the en tire length has been gathered go over it again with the same side up. This time stitch through the hem at the opposite edge. If you are careful to start with each stitch or plait cor responding with the one on the op posite edge, the little plaits will con tinue evenly to the opposite end. Now press the strip with a hot iron and then sew it on the garment. Pull out the unnecessary row of gathering and shake out the plaits, and you will find the quilting handsome and ac curate. Economical Suet Pudding. One cup solid suet, chopped fine. To this add one cup best molasses and one cup sweet milk. One teaspoon cin namon! one-half teaspoon cloves. Sift one level teaspoon soda through three cups sifted flour, using a little of the flour to dredge one cup seeded raisins and one cup currants, pinch salt. Steam three hours. Keeps well to re steam when needed. Sauce for above: Beat one cup pulverized sugar and 'one-half (scant) cup butter to a' cream; add one cup milk slowly,' lemon extract. Set in a bowl on top of teakettle and stir till white and creamy. Serve when well dissolved. Neverfailing Pie Crust. For two ordinary sized pies allow one pint of pastry flour, one-half tea spoonful of salt, one-fourth pint of cold lard, one-eighth pint of cold wa iter; sift salt and flour together, then put in the lard until the flour looks like meal; then add the water, mixing it in lightly with the finger tips. Di vide the pastry into four parts, roll out until one-eighth of an inch thick for the under crusts and line the tins. -I Creamed Oysters in Peppers. Heat a quart of oysters to the boil ing point Drain and make a sauce with the oyster liquor, cream, flour, butter, salt and pepper, add the oys ters. Cut around the stems of red or green peppers and remove stems and seeds. Fill the cases with oysters, sprinkle with buttered cracker crumbs, and set in the oven to brown. Convenience for Sewing. A very good suggestion for those who sew on a machine is in regard to a pin cushion. Cut a circular hole in a piece of flannel, buttonhole stitch around it, and slip it over the spool spindle before the spool is placed there. Needles and pins can be kept very conveniently in this strip of flannel. , Fried Apples. Quarter five apples and remove the core; leave the skin, on.

HAD NO DOUBT OF HIS FATE. t Mr. Jerame' Evidently Was Aware of 1 His Wife's Culinary. Ability. 7. Some weeks ago the wife of Judge Blank, of Pacific avenue, lost her cook, and since she had no other resource she rolled up her sleeves-and for a week provided such meals as the judge had not enjoyed since those happy days when the Blanks did not keep a cook. The judge's delight was so great that by way of. appreciative acknowl edgment he presented -Mrs. Blank with a beautiful ermine cloak. Quite naturally, the Incident was a good deal noised about among thev social acquaintances of the Blanks and a spirit of envious emulation was de veloped in certain quarters. .It was la this .mood that Mrs. Jerome recited the story to her.husband. "What do I get. Jerryf she naked, "if I will do the cooking for a week?" "Well." said Mr. Jerome, "at the end of a week, my dear, you'll get one of those long crepe veils." San Francisco Argonaut ECZEMA COVERED BABY. Worst C Doctors Ever Saw luf- ' fered Untold, Misery Perfect -.

The eczema was some thing terrible, and the doctors said it was the worst case they ever saw. At times, his whole body and face were covered, all but his feet. I used many kinds of patent medicines, to no avail. A friend teased me to try Cuticura. At last I decided to try Cuticura when my boy was three years and Jour months old, having had eczema all that time and suffering untold misery. I began to use all three of the Cuticura Remedies. He was better in two months; in six months he was well. Mrs. R. L. Risley, Piermont, N. H., Oct 24. 1905." How He Did It. Early in the morning session, when the pupils were feeling bright and nappy, the teacher thought it a good plan to give them sentences to cor rect, both as to grammar and 'sense. She accordingly wrote on the black board: ''The hen has four legs. He done it." Thoughtful little Ignatius," at the foot of the class, pondered deeply, and at the end of 15 minutes' time, allowed for correction, he wrote: "He didn't done it; God done It." Preacher's Comforting Remarks. At an evening prayer meeting in a Maine visage the senior deacon, Dominicus Jordan, arose to make ap propriate scriptural remarks about the death of the late MissvSimpkins. In conclusion the deacon said: "I re spected.

Exchange. Riley and the Weather. While going to' the .office of his pub lishers on a bright morning in Septem ber, James' Whltcomb Riley met, what seemed to him, an unusually large number of his acquaintances who made the conventional remark about the weather. This unremitting ap plause pleased and .amused him. When greeted at the office with "Nice day, Mr. Riley,' he stopped at the 'door and answered drolly: "Yes yes l'va heard it very highly spoken of." BOTH GAINED Man and Wife Fatten on Grape-Nuts. The notion that meat is necessary for real strength and the foundation of solid flesh is no longer as prevalent as formerly. Excessive meat eaters are usually sluggish a part of the time because they are not able to fully digest their food, and the undigested portion is. changed into what is practically a kind of poison that acts upon the blood and .nerve's, thus getting all through the system. "I was a heavy meat eater," writes an Ills, man, "and up to two years ago, was in very poor health. I suf fered with indigestion so that I only weighed 95 pounds. "Then I heard about Grape-Nuts and decided to try it My wife laughed at me at first but when. I gained to 125 pounds and felt so fine, she -thought she would eat Grape-Nuts too. ' "Now she Is fat and well and has gained 40 pounds. We never have in digestion any more and seldom feel the desire for meat A neighbor of ours, 68 years old, was troubled with indigestion for years; was a heavy meat eater, and now since he has been eating Grape-Nuts regularly, he says he is well and never has indigestion. I could name a lot of persons who have really been cured of indigestion by changing from a heavy meat diet to Grape-Nuts." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
