with our mission service there have been
during the past year four groups of volun-
teer workers, viz, the Woman's Board, Uni-
versity Students, Members of Churches and
Individual Workers. To keep this report
within reasonable limits it will be impossible
to mention, except briefly, the amount and
varied character of the willing service given
by between one and two hundred persons on
these lists. A few items of the work of each
division may be mentioned as follows:

Co-Operative Picking.

The ladies in our neighborhood have
been trying little cooperative pick
ling, says correspondent of the Prairie
Farmer. We find that in making all
kinds of chopped pickles, it is very
great saving of time and labor to use a
sausage cutter to prepare the vegetables.
AS good part of the work consists in
cleaning the cutter, we met and cut or
ground our cabbage, tomatoes, onions
and peppers. 1t was all done in very
short time. We took the chopped vege
tables home in pals. Mrs. Howe, the
lady at whose house the work was done,
gave me this recipe for making them up:
One peck and half of green tomatoes,
three small heads of cabbage, six large
onions, six ripe peppers, and six green
peppers; chop all very finely and cover
all with salt for twenty-four hours, then
drain the juice off thoroughly; cover with
two quarts of strong vinegar; add one
and half pounds of sugar; scald all one
hour, then add three heads of finely
chopped celery and one pint of grated
horse radish root; boil all fifteen min
utes, then add one tablespoonful of
cloves, two tabespoonfuls each of white
mustard-seed, allspice, ginger, and one
tablespoonful of mustard. These spices
are all to be ground. Cover closely. 1t
is fit for use in month.

The Care of LAMPS.

People who live in houses lighted by
gas escape much that is disagreeable in
the care Of lamps-or their lack of care.
But the kerosene lamp is the almost
universal illumination
The best light is obtained from lamp
where the surface of the oil is at all
times at the same distance from the burn
ing part of the wick. Where the reser
voir containing the oil is directly under
the burner, as in most common lamps,
the blaze burns less and less brightly as
the oil decreases and the wick grows
more tardy in supplying it. We need
an improvement in hand lamps on this
account.
The wick serves principally to elevate
the oil, the combustion of It's own sub
stance being very slight, but there is
choice IN wicks. Felt wicks are preferable
to woven, as they can be more easily
trimmed to give good shaped blaze.
Some housewives in trimming a wick
will cut off all the black every day. This
is undesirable, for by pinching off the
loose fibers and smoothing over the top
a better light is obtained. The inside of
the oil reservoir should be carefully
cleansed with soda dissolved in water
careful to drain and dry them we'll. This
Chh OO easily OOhC W lhCA1 LII
the open oven few moments. Do not
let the soda and water come into contact
with any bronze or gilt about the ouside
of the lamp.
Oil should be strained before it is put
into glass lamp. The burners should
be boiled in soda water once in a month
or two. If you live in or near where
there is a factory in which brass is
handled, take the burners there and
have them dipped. 1t will cost but
few cents, and they will look like new.
Some burners give an excellent light,
especially for winter, as they heat like
small stove. One will very quickly raise
the temperature, in an ordinary sized
room, five degrees. People practice
economy in all ways and use widely
different means of "saving a little"
which is a good thing to debut don't
for the sake of your eyes and health
economic by using poor, WORKOUT
burners on your lamps, which render
combustion imperfect, and would be
none too good if new.-NeO York. NeaOs.

If this sort of thing keeps on they will

We now learn that w. Jennings Demo

tory, and yet does not sell single pat

They are all given away to the pur-
chasers and subscribers to that wonderful
family magazine, Demores,'s Monthly.
I ach magazine contains an order emit
Ting the holder to any pattern they
manufacture. We do not see how they
can afford it, for their editions are i'm
mense, and it seems incredible that each
magazine price 20 cents contains an
order for pattern worth from 20 to 30
cents. This will certainly hurt the pat
tern trade, for ladies will soon learn that
they can get their patterns free by
simply buying or subscribing for Demo

THE SAVAGE WAY.
How the Indian Treats an Injury-OlI
Time Methods.


Time Methods.
The savage is emphatically the child of ma
ture. He lives close TO nature, his only edu-
cation is gained in natures school.
When the Indian receives an injury, he
does not seek cure in mineral poisons, but
binds on the simple leaf, administers the herb
al tea, and, with natures aid, comes natural
recovery.
Our rugged ancestors who pierced the
wilderness, built their uncouth but comforta-
BILE Log Cabins and started the clearings in
the woods, which in time became the broad,
fertile fields OF the modern farmer, found in
roots and herbs that lay close at hand ma
lures potent remedies for all their common
ailments. 1t was only in very serious cases
they sent for old ''saddle-bags' with his
physic, which quite as often killed as cured
Latter-day society has wandered too far
away from nature, in every way for its own
good Our grandfathers and grandmoth hers
lived wholesomer, purer, better, healthier,
more natural lives than We do Their minds
were not filled with noxious isms nor Their
bodies saturated with poisonous drugs
IS it not time to make a change to return
to the simple vegetable preparations of our
grandmothers, which contained the power
and potency of nature as remedial agents
and in all the ordinary ailments were effica-
cions, at least harmless!
The proprietor5 of Warmers Log Cabin
remedies have thought SO, and have put on
the market number of these pure vegetable
preparations, made from formulas secured
after patient searching into the annals of the
past SO that those who want them need not
be without them.
Among these Log Cabin remedies will be
found Log Cabin sarsaparilla," for the
blood Log Cabin hops and buchu remedy"
tonic and stomach remedy; LOG Cabin
cough and consumption remedy" LOG
Cabin hair tonic" for strengthening and re-
newing the hair: ''Log Cabin extract for
both external and internal application; Log
Cabin liver pills." Log Cabin rose cream"
LOG Cabin plasters." All these remedies
are carefully prepared from recipes which
were found, after long investigation, to have
been those most successfully used by our
grandmOthers Of ''ye olden time" They are
the simple, vegetable, efficacious remedies Of

Anarobists, Festival Of Sorrow.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2.-The anarchists
and their sympathizers are putting
forth earnest efforts to make their
demonstration in observance of the ex-
ecution of the Chicago anarchists sue
cess. The anniversary of the event
falling on Sunday. the ''festival of sor-
row." as it is called, will be given on
Saturday evening, November 10. The
"Die ParOle,n the anarchiStic organ,
this week is filed with appeals to work
ingmen of all labor organizations to
be represented at the demonstration.
There are said to be 600 to 700 anaTeh-
lists in st. Louis, while the socialists
number eight to ten times as many.
The anarchist leaders endeavOred to
secure their cooperation in this dem
onstration, but partially failed, for it
has been decided by the socialists to
observe the day separately, and Arbi-
ter hall has been secured for that pur-
pose. The principal feature of the so
cialist meeting will be an address by

organ, the ''Die Tagblatt." entitled,
THE Unfairness of the Accessory
Law" Mr.. Heppner is the man who
claimed to General B. +. Butler, when
defending the Chicago anarchists, that

and when General Butler diSSented
from that view Mr.. HepDner claimed

Los ANGELES. CAL, Nov. 2.-The
Times. of this city. the paper that first
printed the Lord SackviIIe letter to the
Pomona Enquirer publishes what the
editor claims, are the real facts con-
nected with the Murchison-West cor
respondence. Says the Times:
Information has been gathered di-
rectly from the few persons who are on
the inside and possessed of all the facts
in the case. The idea of writing the
letter to Minister West originated
with Murchison himself in the latter
part of August or early in September.
He is q reputable citizen of Pomona,
in this county, and is of English paren-
tsge. The conception or the letter was
his thoughts. He consulted q conf
Dental friend in its preparation. Muir
Gibson said at the outset and before
sending the letter that the object
was not to perpPtrAte joke or crafty
cuI iosity, but to get Minister Vests
opinion on the topics embraced in the
letter. Murchison's letter was dated
September 4th, and Vests answer
September 18th. The minister's letter
was received at Pomona September 20,
and kept by the receiver till October
18th, a full month when It was brought
to Los Angeles by w. A. Bell, the city
attorney of Pomona, and laid before
w. z. Fitzgerald, a member of the
state republican committee, Henry j.
Gage delegate at large tie Chicago
convention, Harrison Gray Otis, the
editor of the Los Angeles Times and
one other local candidate. They saw
| the Importance OF the West letter in 3
political point of view and it was
unanimously determined by persons
| to make the letter public without delay
which was done. The date of the first
publication here being October 2Ist.
