Do you want to can any milk? If you
do, an authority on the subject says you
should can it just as you would fruit.
Bring the milk to boiling point and fill
| your jars to the brim with it, then shut
air tight This will keep any length of
time and be just as good when opened as
when it was put up.

A special to the Pittsburgh Commercial
| Gazette from Franklin says that two men
have recently gone into a scheme to enrich
themselves by causing the arrest of vio-
lators of the law in regard to plugging
abandoned oil wells. Already number
of operators have been arrested and fined,
and since this fact has become known
ownersVf abandoned wells have become
very active in seeing That they are proper
ly plugged, and there is a general hust-
ling throughout oildom.
An exchange says man who attempts
to do business without advertising is like
a grave without a tombstone; or an en-
gine without steam; or a bird without
Wings or book agent without tongue;
or flirt without beauty or grace; or a
politician without influence. Neither one
is known, neither one does much, all are
passed by. Advertising is the preaching
of the gospel of business to those who buy
or ought 20 buy. Perhaps one or two
persons would get religion if there was
not preacher in the world but the great
masses would know nothing of Chris
tianity. So some business men will get a
! little trade anyhow, but unless he advar-
tsos, the great bHlk of trade will pass on
to some more enterprising patron of
''printer's ink" and the fate of business
failure may come upon him.
Mrs. Mary Hawk, of Sharon, who has
made herself prominent among the
"Chrisuan SCIENTISTS" was taken through
to North Warren on Saturday, being vio-
lently insane. This species of insanity
does not often become violent, but in Mrs.
Hawks case it had gone so far that she
had got to holding special interviews with
Christ in visions, and she persuaded weak
sisters to shut Off the food supply, assert
ing that Christ would supply all nutrition
and cure all ailments. When a scientist
| gives that sort of advice in the name of
man who plucked corn to appease his
hunger as he walked through the fields of
Judea on the Sabbath, it indicates a dis
eased and defective mind Christ saw in
nutrition as great a mystery and miracle
as that of creation itself or any healing by
mere touch or command. People who
| ignore the wondrous chemistry of the
stomach or other organs are ignorant
bunglers and ignore the most marvellous
and ineXplicable works of the Creator.
