Blind in alteration
Ofhis lady's glove;

Quite so sweet as she.
Tells you she's an angel,
Expects you to agree.

Moping and repining,
Gloomy and morose,

Marriage is failure,
Like q broken dam.

Caught in q fashions whirl,
Thinks no more of poison
Got another girl!-TOpeka Cupitdl.

A "hear-say" reputation may do for
other remedies; Paines celery COM
pound is best known from the mouths
of men and women whom it has made
well-they are in every city, town and
village in the country.
No one can pass the newspaper bull
letins. without being reminded by how
slight thread the best men hold on to
life. The slight ups and downs in
health from which people recover make
them forget that there is a limit to the
body's elasticity and endurance. The
habitually exhausted nervous system
at last loses it's power of recovery and
offers no resistance to disease.
Prevent disease" is the watchword
of the best medical thought of today.
Careful men and women do not wait
until they are fiat on their backs as
people once did. The more intelligent
part of every community has found out
the inestimable benefit to be derived
from Paine's celery compound, when
one is worn out, nerve-tired and out
of-sorts."
The little ills. the beginning Of neu-
ralgia and rheumatism, the "all-gone"
and tired feelings show the immediate
need of purifying the blood and re-
freshing the nerves. The direct and
energetic way Paine's celery compound
overcomes sick and nervous headaches.
dyspepsia and heart troubles, as it
does all other nervous disorders, has
compelled the admiration of the medi-
cal world from the start.
Headaches, rheumatism, neuralgia,
lifeless feelings, and debility cannot
persist when intelligently met and cor
rected by this greatest of nerve and
brain strengtheners. No remedy ever
kept the confidence of so large a body
of inquiring men and women. Try IT

Edward w. Brenneisen left for Dali
las last night to accept a position in

Miss Lucy H. Hitchcock, lecturer,
department of physical culture, Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union,
Vermont, wrote on May 16, last:
1T affords me great pleasure to add
my testimonial with others regarding
the healing effects of Paine's celery
compound upon an exhausted nervous
system"
Aug. II, 1897, she wrote: las a rule
1 do not endorse medicines, but 1 be-
lieve Paine's celery compound to be of
different order from the ordinary
medicines. Facts cannot be disputed.
l have derived so much benefit from
the compound that 1 am glad to heart
lily recommend it, hoping others SINH
larry afflicted may be relieved. Any
medicine that will relieve suffering hu-
manity is a blessing to the world"
= A blessing to the world! g..n.
Paine's celery compound has been
proven to be the one great remedy that
really makes people well. This esu-
mable woman, whose Christian work
is earnestly directed toward the better
ment of others, and whose eminence
in the w. c. T. U. makes her advice
of great value, plainly indorses Paine's
celery compound.
The amount of poor health on every
hand is something shocking to every
one who stops to think. Hundreds
of men and women in every neighbor-
hood are today carrying about with
them a needless load of ailments that

Lutheran Church Celebrates Today

Lutheran Church Celebrates Today
Throughout the World.
Today, October 81, is day which all
Lutheran churches throughout the
world celebrate with great rejoicing.
1t is the anniversary of the day their
great reformer Martin Luther start
ed the reform crusade against the then
existing rule of the Roman Catholics
by mailing his % thesis on the cathed-
raj door in Wittenberg, Germany.
Martin Luther, the founder of Pres
,byterianism, was born November 10,
14SS, at Eisleben, Germany. and became
a monk July II, 1904. He created a
great sensation throughout Germany
when he, on the Slst OF October, 1917,
owing to the Monk Tetzel selling in
dulgences and the forgiveness of sins,
nailed his 80 thesis, as mentioned
abeve, on the door of the castle church
of Wittenberg, and invited discussion
on the subject.
1t was he who said at the close Of
his defense in worms: Here l stand;
l cannot do otherwise; God help me,
Amen!"
His translation of the Bible from
1521-34 was his grandest gift to the
German people. ..
In this city it will be celebrated by
both the st. Johns German Lutheran
church and the Evangelical Lutheran
Emmanuel church.
At st. Johns church on Nueva street
Sunday school will be held at $3.50 a.
m, followed by the devotional services
conducted by the pastor, Rev. Father
Ulrich. There will be some special
music at this service. Prof. Gus.
Albers will play on the violin and
Profs. z. Voigt and A. Schemmel will
play on the organ. Miss Lottie
Braun will also sing.
At the Evangelical church on New
ton and Centre streets, Rev. Theodore
Bogish will conduct the services which
viii be very beautiful and impressive.
The church will be nicely decorated
and songs by the church choir will aid
the services in impressiveness. Ser
vices will begin at 1880 a. m. from
November 9TH and Sunday school will
be at 2 p. m. New Sunday school
pupils will receive special attention.
The Ladies' society of the Emmanuel

THE THANKSGIVING TURKEY.

There is a very general impression
that hen-turkeys are better than COB
blers, but such is not the case when the
birds are under year old; until that
age is past the cock or gobbler, is
more highly and finely favored than
the hen. A small turkey is never sat
isfactory; only al twelve pounds Getty
dressed) do they begin to be fine. In
small towns, where they are properly
dressed-drawn, with head and feet re-
moVed-ten pounds would mean the
same. Be sure your bird is young.
Avoid those that are yellow, fat, with
rough legs and hard spurs. One heavy
for it's size, of a blue cast, smooth
legs, soft, only budding spurs, flexible
end to breast-bOne, and skin easily
pierced between the finger-nails, is the
bird you want. Whatever dressing you
use (oyster or chestnut is best) do not
have it too moist, and do not fill the
turkey more than two thirds full,
otherwise you will have a soggy, solid,
indigestible mass as a result. The
baking or roasting must be long and
slow operation after the first brown
ing, and if the patent covered baking
pan is not used, an ordinary dripping
pan must be used as a cover. The
basting must be frequent-every fifteen
minutes-and thorough if you would
have the meat juicy. Four hours is
about the proper time for fourteen
pound turkey, in a moderate oven.
When served, your turkey is right If
of a dark rich brown all over, without
a suggestion of scorch, juicy in appear
ance, and though whole, ready to fall
apart at a light touch of the carver.
Before placing it in the oven rub all
over with good butter and dredge heav-
lily with flour seasoned with pepper and
salt. The basting should be melted
