THEcLOSEc MOUNTED ALLEN

A few days ago a Carson man was
down in Churchill county and reach

to call on the old political hay-seeder
Riding up to the gate, be asked a
man in a casual way if ''the Speaker
of the House" was in.

Never heard him spoken of in that
way round here

Der f the Legislature" was the next
query
"Never told the boys anything
about it on the ranch I supposed he
went to Carson to run horses"
Didn't you know he was running
for the Assembly last fall?'
''Never heard word of it. He
never said nothing about it to me-"
Didn't you vote last Fall?"
''No. we waz all busy as thunder
hagen and never heard Of the lection
until about Christmas. Heard Lem
say the Silver party had raked the
persimmons, but didn't know he waz
in. Lem never talks much politics to
the ranch boys anyhow. Guess he
knew he had sure thing, and didn't
need our votes. Lem alters was close

Doctors generally agree that cam.
phor is the deadliest foe to grip that is
now known. A drop Of camphor on
the tongue is excellent to break up an
incipient cold, but it is a painful rem
edy as it burns like a coal Of fire.
Much easier to take is lump of cam
phor gum allowed to slowly dissolve
in the mouth. The burning sensation
is very much lessened and the help
seems quite as certain.
Assemblyman Constant didn't make

Ills WELL TO REMEMBER.

That a baked custard Is one Of the
easiest things TO make aud one OF the
easies, to spoil in bakiug-if left to II.
own devices. IL must be made Of fresh
materials, and bskes better in a shallow
dish than in deep one. The dish con-
tanning IL should be placed In shallow
tin dish holding hot water, and the oven
must be moderate. Watch IL, and just
as soon as the blade Of knife comes Out
clean when you try it-take IL out. II
you leave 1t longer 1t will be wstery.
That the best Of materials are none toe
good for our cooking.
That IL We feel that We cannot afford
the best, we had far better 60 without
cake and pies 10 certain extent, and
when we do have them-have the best.
That We cannot cheat our stomach, II
We do disguise the poor butter and egg:
with spices and flsvors, but that sooner
or later II will rebel, and call for the
doctor, and his bill will be more than the
butter bill decidedly.
That a cake made with two eggs Is just
as palatable as one made with six eggs,
if it is fresh, well baked, and favored,
and looks attractive.
That layer cake Is more attractive
than plain loaf or sheet Of cake frost
ed. The cost Is the same, except the
filling, and that Is slight.
