De stingy man alters miserabel.
If he walkf around he trimbles

The friends of ]. c. CAUGHMAN have agreed
that the public may know all the meanness he
has ever committed, therefore, we respectfully
nominate him as a candidate for County Treas

war, and we knowing him to be a Christian gen.

That you tell of no good act of his life.

"And what kind did we send you

The label was jest the same.
We'll madam, both lots is from

little difference in the doping
The 'dopingn What's that?"
why. the swcetening! Put little
sugar in the next lot you cook and
then it'll taste just like the old"
Put sugar in CORN exclaimed the
woman. greatly astonished
Why certainly; there's sugar in
evory can OF corn put up. Didn' you
know that? Probably not Most
people don't know it, but it's fact all
the same. It's sort of trade secret
that ! found olt for myself
II used TO think that all the differ
ence was in the corn itself. but that
bosh. OF course, some corn is bettor
than other corn-tenderer jucier and
naturally sweeter-but none of it is
sweet enough to can without the use

Dear me- novor heard of that be-

Probably not responded the gro

over It's great business and no
mistake.
The farmers bring in their corn

The husSod ears are put into baskets
and carried into the factory. The

Then comes the packing into the

this: Into every single can there goes

is choice lot there is little sugar
needed; but when it's inferior or has
been kept over night they dope it In

so, madam, use the sugar, and III

that corn as well as any they ever ate. ="
We'll I'll try it. said the woman.

Why II Is That Lobsters and Crabs Turn
Red.
"What makes Holsters and crabs
turn red when they are boiled P" said
the obseryant fish man in reply TO a
question. Well, strictly speaking,
they don I The lobster or the crab
Is just IS red before it is put in hot
water as it is aiterward, only it is
subdued by a mingling of blue in its
makeup that gives it a grayish- blue
appearance The blue and red of Il
live lobster or crab ars pigments in
the shell. AS long as they are there
together the red becomes gray. But
both OF these pigments are not fast
colors. The blue won wash. but the
red is there to stay. II it were posi-
BILE to keep Holsters or crabs alive for
any length Of time in the sun the blue
would fade out as quickly Is the same
color does ont of cheap flannel suit.
and the shells would be vivid red as
if they had been boiled. II is not an
uncommon thing to catch live holsters
and crabs. more frequently the latter
that are entirely red. II has been
determined, however. that this Grad
ication Of the blue pigment IS the re-
suit OF disease. Live red crabs and
Holsters are never put on the market.
So tho reason a crab or Il lobster turns
red. as the saying is, when it is boiled.
is because the hot water instantly
washes the fugitive blue coloring mat
ter out of the shell and leaves only
the fast red, 1t does not take long
boiling to change the color. II you

bath two seconds after it is submerged
you would find IL as red as if it had
