HOW TO COOK POTATOES.
Various Ways in Which Housekeepers Car
Prepare the Tubers.


Prepare the Tubers.
Does anybody want to know the varia-
tions played in our kitchen on the tune
of plain, cold, boiled potatoes? Here
they are: Milk is the keynote, and the
first recipe is this: Put three-fourths
cup of milk--with the cream on-in a
shallow frying-pan; heat to boiling
point, then add pint of cold sliced
potatoes, salt, pepper, and generous
lump of butter; simmer gently few
minutes, and serve hot. A second recipe
is: one cup of milk to which, when it
boils, is added tablespoonful of corn
starch paste, then put in one pint of
potatoes cut in dice, and the salt, pepper
and butter needful. Or instead of corn
starch, stir in well-beaten egg just be-
fore serving. The other variations are
made by using the above ingredients and
adding different flavors; as at one time
sprays of fresh parsley; at another boiled
corn cut from the cob; at another a
sliced onion or two-though these last
must be cooked in water awhile before
being added to the potatoes. Still an
other way is to put bits of dried beef in
the pan, add one-half cup of cold water,
simmer awhile, then add potatoes and
seasoning needed. Yet one more is this:
mince the cold potatoes; put in a baking
dish; add salt, pepper, butter and one
half cup of milk, and bake half an hour
in a moderate oven. Fried potatoes 1

CATARRH.
catarrhal Deafness-Hay Fever-A New
Home Treatment.

:, Sufferers are not generally aware that
tnese diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
IN the lining membrane of the nose and
eustachian tubes. Microscopic research,
however. has proved this to be fact, and
tne result of this discovery is that simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.
N. S.-This treatment is not snuff or an
ointment; both have been discarded by
reputable physicians as injurious. A pamph-
Jet explaining this new treatment is sent on

enemies that are known. Walls roomed IN the
house, and told a straight story when ques-
TONED about the case at the preliminary exam-
lnation and before the coroner. He was ar
resied because a torn shirt and bloody hand
kerchlef were found recently among his effects,

THE FARMERS WIN.
The Iowa Ejectment Cases i'm O'Briep
County Decided.

Sioux CITY, Iowa, June 13.-Judge Shiras
has filed his decision in the case of Conklin
against Wehrman, which is the celebrated
o'Brien county ejectment case, growing out of
the attempt about year ago to eject large
number of farmers in that county from their
homes. The farmers pooled their ISSUES and
employed counsel, and the trial. which took
place here in May was OF much interest The
court was asked to enioin Wehrman from prose-
cutting his ejectment suits until the title could
be settled and asking that the title be auieted
IN the farmers. Judge Shiras holds that the
farmers have both the legal and equitable title
and that Wehrman never had a valid title, and
that If he had he has slept too long on his
rights now to assert it. This opinion is in
harmony with other recent decisions of the
higher courts that stale claims and technical
defects cannot deprive the farmers of the
homes they have occupied for many years
Several thousand acres of valuable farm land
are involved.
