firms have already placed their orders
with the electrical supply company for
unique designs and illumi nations. The
idea has taken hold quickly, and the
merchant who really wants to appear
up to date will practically be obliged
to Join the procession and light up his
store front with the electric bulbs.
The price has been made very rea-
sonable for the week of the convention,
and no progressive merchant can af-
ford to be left out.
All the flags in the city should be
brought out of hiding. Much OF the
decoration that is put up for the COM
ing convention will remain to do its
part in celebrating the Fourth of July.
1t will be impossible to overdo the
thing. There will be thousands Of
people here from Texas, New Mexico.
and old Mexico. It is the finest op-
portunity Ell Paso ever bad to sd
vertise herself, and If she succeeds
this time in making the occasion
unique among Texas conventions her
place as a convention city Is assured
for all time.
Everybody in Texas, after once visit
ing Ell Paso in the summer, will con-
cede at once that this city ia the ideal
summer convention city OF the Great
Southwest. The summer climate here
can not be surpassed. And when ad-
ded to Ell Paso's advantages we have
Cleudcroft and the Sierra Madre, toge-
Their with Mexico's attractions to the
tourist, surely Ell Psso combines oil
that Is desirable in . summer meeting
place.
At one of the citizens meetings the
that the average woman teacher was
the best advertising agent that the
town could have-that che could talk
more to the cubic inch than any six
average men, and her talk was of the
kind that carried far and had weight.
There is much truth in this. 1t must
be borne in mind that in every salts
fed person who comes here this month
as Q visitor we have the most efficient
advertising agent shat could be de-
vised. And the benefit derived is 80
greatly in excess of the comparatively
trivial cost that every single individual
ought to be willing to contribute libe-
rally of money, time, and labor toward
making the occasion a memorable one
In Ell Paso's history.
Pull together. Forget the little jsa-
lousies and misunderstandings, and 60
into the thing to win.

THE INDIAN FAMINE FUND

AT the request of the Committee
of One Hundred the HERALD today
presents an appeal in behalf of the
starving millions of India, The cause
is such q worthy one that no doubt
there are hundreds of people in Ell
Paso Who will be glad to put a little
money where they know it will do the
most good.
1t may be said that this movement
is spreading all over the United
States, and large amounts are being
subscribed In every city toward this
famine fund. It is not time to stop
and discuss questions of England 3
responsibility and the alleged faults
of her colonial system. We need not
consider England at all in this matter
If We do not choose. The main fact
Is that there are ten millions of people
likely to die If Immediate aid is not
proffered them, and out of our plenty
and abundant prosperity 1t seems
reasonable that we should give a,
least little to save these poor etarv-
ing human beings from death by
starvation.
THE HERALD will gladly receive and
forward all funds that may be sub
cribe toward this end.

FIX THE STREETS

The streets of the city ought by al
means to be cleaned up and put n
perfect condition before the visitors
come. There is no time to waste.
In the past there have been occasions
when the street com missioner and
other public officers positively refused
to act on any suggestion Of the HERALD
az long as this paper kept it before the
public, a certain pride restraining
them from acknowledging that they
GOULD be Influenced by such things. To
show our entire good feeling, if the
street commissioner will let us know
when he is ready to go to work On the
street we will avoid reference for q
while to the subject, and be can get his
immediate cue from one of his own
party spokesman.
The HERALD certainly does not want
to stand in the peoples light and it 10
ready to respect the tenderness of the
feelings of it's political opponents. The
people really want the improvements,
and no doubt one OF the democratic
lights could be induced to print as ad-
friendly hint to some of the
governing powers.
The thing has to be done very
automatically, and nobody is supposed
to know anything about 1t.

ut is surprising fact says Prof.

years, l have met more people having
used Green's August Flower than any
other remedy for dyspepsia, deranged
liver and stomach, and for constipa-
ton. l find for tourists and statesmen,
or for persons filling office positions
where headaches and general bad feel
ings from irregular habits exist, that
Green's August Flower is q grand

THE little plaza ought to be entirely
cleared of rubbish ard building mate
rial before the teachers come. The
Sheldon is far enough advanced low
to justify such a demand, and the
council ought to see At once that this
is done. Every square foot of open
space in that part of the city will be
needed; and besides the piles of debris
are ve-y unsightly.

WORK FOR EVERY MANA MAG
NIfICENT OPPORTUNITY
MERCHANTS AND ELECTRICAL
DISPLAYS.

The city council ought to appropriate
ers not less than a thousand dollars
two thousand if possible. The citizens
would then no doubt raise another
thousand by subscription, and the total
would be enough to entertain the visi-
tors in q worthy manner.
The council may be sure that the
city will stand united with them on
this matter, and this is not the time to
display false economy. Tie people
look to the council to 90 the right thing
just now, which is to appropriate
enough of the peoples money to
guarantee at least one half Of the
necessary expenses of entertaining the
visiting teachers and their friends.
With the city appropriation as a
nucleus, 1t ought not be difficult to
complete the fund by private su bscrip-
tion. Every business man should give
something, and iberality In this case
will return many fold.
Do not make the citizen solicitors
wait, or have to call second time.
Make up your mind now what you will
give and give it without delay when
the committee calls on you.
Remember that this is no private
enterprise to benefit q few, but it ia
the greatest public meeting that Ell
Paso has ever seen, and every bust
ness man in the city should join heart
lily In the movement to provide suitable
entertainment. Every individual is
needed.
It Ia not alone as contributors to the
general fund that individuals are
needed. Every man should consider
himself as cons tituting at least two
committees, of which he shall be
chairman and all the members. AS
one of these committees, the business
man will 60 out of his way to be civil
and courteous to everybody who can
by any twist be called visitor, and
see that every stranger is provided
with the best of everything that the
city affords.
AS the other committee each in
dividuai business man should take an
active part in street decoration. Each
m ere chant should provide some sort OF
a window display, and take pride in
getting up as attractive an exhibit as
he can. He should plan special
urprise for the people during the con-
ventiop, and if possible should arrange
for an electrical display in order to
help in the general illumination and
decorative scheme.
AS an instance of what will be done
in this line, the Mills block may be
cited. The entire block will be bril-
liantly Illuminated by agreement
among the various tenants, and nearly
every impor tsnt firm will have an in
dividual electric display. Along Ell

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Dishes For the SicL-A Pleasing Bay
Window Eject House,
hold Hints.

Comparatively few housekeepers ap-
preciate the amount of nutriment that
is wasted with every pair of chickens
or fowls feet that is thrown away. A
practical test of the value of these
usually despised portions is to boil one
pair in saucepan by themselves until
the bones fall apart, and then note the
quantity of jelly thus obtained. The
feet are the most easily cleansed of
any portion of the bird because the
thick outer skin can be removed entire,
like a stocking. To do this the feet
should not be allowed to boil, as the
skin will adhere to the bones, but they
should be plunged into hot water, not
boiling, and allowed to stand for two
or three minutes. The skin will then
readily loosen at the top and draw off
to the claws. The latter should be cut
off.
To make chicken jelly clean and dis
Joint chicken, cut it into small pieces,
break the bones and place it with the
feet, prepared as described above, in a
saucepan. Add one pint of cold water
for every pound of chicken. Heat slow
ly, simmer until the meat falls from
the bones. Strain, let it stand until
cold, remove the fat and season it with
salt, pepper and small piece of lemon
peel. Parsley, celery and bay leaves
may be used for flayoring If they are
desired. Turn into a mold and stand in
a cold place to harden. This can be
used for broth or soup by thinning
slightly with boiling water.
! To make chicken soup follow the
above directions. Remove the meat
when it has fallen from the bones,
strain, add tablespoonful of rice,
small piece of onion. the seasoning,
bits of the meat and cook until the rice
is done. Remove the onion and serve
with croutons, sippets or toast.
Toast should be cut one-third of an
inch thick, dried slowly, Drowned
quickly and served hot. 1t may be
served as water, milk or cream toast
A poached egg may be served on any
of these.
To make French toast plunge slice
of bread into milk and then into an
egg, the white and yolk of which have
been beaten together thoroughly and
seasoned with salt. Fry a golden
brown in butter.

Household Hints.

Ice can be kept well even during the
warmest weather Wrap it in several
thicknesses of flannel and place in the
ice chest on four crossed pieces Of
wood so that no water will accumulate
under it.
Ants can be driven away if the
places they frequent are sprinkled with
oil of pennyroyal.
The smell of onions may be removed
from the breath by eating parsley
moistened with vinegar.
Mildew stains can be removed by
rubbing plenty of soap and powdered
chalk on the garment and placing it in
the sun. 1t may be necessary to re-
peat this operation.
Houses may be kept comparatively
cool during the summer months by
throwing the windows and blinds wide
open in the early morning hours and
then closing the blinds for the rest Of
the day.
