General Passenger-Agent Lee of the

the outlook for the Exposition said.
'Just at present, he said, "the farm

I've just come from trip through the

Comfort i'm Canning
With the
"MUDGE" GAMER

During the Summer the housewives soul is
torn between conflicting emotions-the desire,
and sense of duty, to "put up'' fruit and veg
etables for winter use, and the dread of long
hours of toll over hot stove-boiling, strain
ing, slimmng, and all the rest of it. And
then the pity of tito open jar after jar of
the most priced preserves, and to fnd-as
often happens-that they have worked"
What delightfully."- easy way of getting out
of all these fluctuations the Nudge" Gamer
presents! The fruit or vegetables are simply
sterilized by steam-not cooked put up
whole, they preserve their color, form and
natural flavor; without the addition of any
chemical whatever. The process is simple,
extremely convenient, and very rapid.
What does the average housekeeper think
of canning peaches or berries in five minutes;
tomatoes, whole, in twelve? The Nudge
Gamer does this And, if you will come to
the Basement, you may see all sorts of fruits
in season being put up by this process.
The Z" Nudge " Gamer can also be used
for picking, making jelly, and cooking. Ex-
cellent tea and coffee, for instance, may be
made in this manner. Prices, SIPS to 50.

Named In Honor of President Eliot.

There Is great rejoicing over the
birth of n daughter by Mr.. and Mrs.
Alexis T.. Frye at their ranch in High
land, Cal, says a San Francisco dis
patch. The child will be named Pearl
Eliot Frye, after President Eliot OF
Harvard. Frye was the first superin-
tcndent OF schools in Cuba after the
American occupation. He organized
the expedition Of Cuban teachers which
spent the summer Of 1900 at the Har-
ward summer school. The marriage
of Mr. and Mrs. Frye was the culmina-
tiOn of romantic association. She
was Senorita Maria lrruebarreno. one
of the beautiful Cuban teachers who
visited Harvard on the excursion. Frye
chastised an impudent quartermaster
on the trip from Cuba because he
would not act promptly in providing
staterOoms Cor the sick teachers and
by that act gained their admiration.
Frye is Harvard athlete.
