Storks In Turkey.

Storks have always been in great
esteem in Turkey, says the Baltimore
Herald, and their good reputation has
gone up considerably owing to . most
touching incident that occurred re.
Gently. A small village on the Gull
of Ismidt caught fire, and over 200
houses were destroyed. A large num-
Der had storks' nests on them, and at
the beginning Of the fire all the birds
took fight. Almost Immediately,
however, they returned to their little
ones, of which there were two or
three in each neat. The old birds set.
tied down over their broods, covering
them with their wings, and one after
another persisted in the flames with.
out attempting to save themselves.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
Bacon Rightly Broi'ed.
Good Housekeeping

Bruiled bacon is dish which in few
households deserves the adjective, be-
cause it is seldom broiled; the fat is
fried out OF 1t and again soaked into it
by long spluttering in a spider full OF
grease. The only way TO cook bacon
both for the matter OF appearance
and for digestive qualltics-is broll It,,
not over bed OF Goals Git is too fat for
thaO but in very hot oven. Cut the
bacon in the most delicately thin
slices possible. rejecting the rind. Lay
the pieces close together in fine wire
broiler. Place it over dripping pan
and set in hot oven. 1t requires to
be turned just once. The fat which
falls into the pan makes excellent
dripping for frying potatoes. Drain
the bacon on brown paper. If you
wish to serve calls liver with this,
sprinkle the liver with pepper and salt,
roll it in flour and fry brown in the
bacon drippings. Ssrve with a curled
morsel of bacon on top Of each piece OF
liver. Bacon as served by the average
cook, we'll soaked with grease, is the
most indigestible Of food when broiled
crisp in the oven it is a dish that may

with IMMUNITY. Among all the fats,
delicatety crisped bacon ranks next to
cream in ease of digestion.

promises only happiness ends in disap-
pointment and misery.
This is very true Of marriage. The
young wife goes heart and soul into
home making and housekeeping. She
loves to cook and prepare the dainties
her husband enjoys. She is so robust
and hearty that she can hardly find
enough to do to exhaust her abundant
energy. That's the way it begins. AZ
ter while she finds that it takes all her
strength to care for her home. Then
household cares begin to overtax her,
and she drops down into a chair many a
time and gives way to tears because of
her weakness and misery. The sky so
cloudless on the morning of marriage
has soon become overcast.
THE CRITICAL. TINE
in many a woman's life comes Just at
this period of Encouragement and de-
spair. She finds indications of disease
OF the delicate womanly organs. Her
women friends perhaps tell her that the
bearing down sensation, the pains in the
back and loins indicate disease or dis
placement. She consults physicians,
takes prescribed treatments, all to no
avail. And yet this woman's case is
durable on the evidence of women who
have been cured.

of Glenwood, Washington Co., Oregon.

It can truthfully be said that there is
hardly form of womanly disease med.
ically durable which will not yield to the
faithful use of ~Favorite Prescription. !"
More than this, it is a matter of record
that many forms of womanly disease pro-
nouuced incurable by local physicians

cured by the use Of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription
1t is worth noting that these cures
are lasting. Many medicines offered for
women's use are mere palliatives. They
numb the nerves and so dull the pain
But they do not re-establish the lost
womanly health. "Favorite Prescrip-
ton is purely vegetable preparation.
1t contains no alcohol, neither opium,
cocaine or any other narcotic. 1t cannot
disagree with the weakest constitution
1t establishes regularity, dries the drains
which weaken women, heals infamma-
ton and liberation and cures female
weakness.
IT IS wOMAN'S WAY
to sacrifice herself for her family. She
goes without the new dress that husband
or child may have SOM coveted pleasure.
And for economy's sake she often bears
the ills which are undermining her
health. 1t is false economy. The
health of the wife and mother is the
most important factor in the home life,
and every suffering woman who has been
cured by "Favorite Prescription is a
witness to the real economy of this
means OF cure.
MY health is the best now that it has
been for four years." writes Mrs. Phebe
Morris, of Ira, Cayuga Co., NY, Box 81.

Apple Sauce.

For the ideal apple sauce, smooth.
clear and not too sweet, try this
method:
With sharp knife, silver preferred,
cut the apples into quarters, pare. core
and drop at once into pan of cold
water to prevent discoloration. When
all are done skim out of the water and
put into large-bottomed granite or
agate kettle, 90 that they will not be
crowded. Add boiling water-just
enough to show-cover closely to keep
in the stream and cook quickly on the
top of the stove, shaking often to pre-
vent sticking. As soon as they are
tender, and it will take but few
moments, mash with q silver fork,
sprinkle with sugar to taste, cover
again and cook until the sugar is dis
solved. Turn into a glass dish and
serve hot or cold.
Tomato butter is a relish greatly ia.
vored in Southern California. To nine
pounds of ripe tomatoes pared and
sliced allow three pounds Of sugar, one
pint of vinegar, three tablespoonfuls of
cinnamon, one and one.half table,
spoons allspice and one tablespoonful
cloves, Cook until thick, stirring
often to prevent scorching.

FIGHTING TRUSTS WITH WIND.

Trusts.
A New York butcher, John Bar.
schen, victim of the food trust, re.
Gently gave an interview to . New

paragraph of that interview there is
something pathetic. Mr.. Barschen
said: When the newspapers were

beef trust, they succeeded in making
Roosevelt say that the ravages of the
trust must be stopped. But the price
OF beef is higher than it ever was, and
Roosevelt has done nothing, Knox has

anything. Nobody appears to be big
enough or strong enough or brave
enough to do the right thing"
Knox has gone to Europe, the Judges

Irom romahnwl to shoe.brn.l.

Sitting Bulls eldest son is bootblack.
His name is Montezuma, and he is a
graduate of the Carlisle Indian School.
After his schooling he went to Phil
ldelphia full of ambition, and musing
over the profession he would adopt. Al
first it seemed to him that he might be
a banker, and then, when no one seemed
inclined to help him along that path,

ming to learn that there is royal road TO
riches, and he thereupon decided that he

For few cents he bought the regula-
ton kit, and it was not long before he
could send for Wnonah, from the Rose
bug Agency, the girl who had promised
to marry him. Instead of the soap box
which Montezuma once carried for an
outfit, he now has handsome stand,
and this descendant of line of chiefs
is building up more fourishing bus-

A peculiarly interesting and highly
valued curiosity in the possession Of
an American gentleman named Peter
Gruber, Of Rochester, N. Y, is a COM
plete suit Of clothes made from the
skins OF rattlesnakes sewn together,
No fewer than 125 rattlesnakes were
requisitioned to supply the necessary
skins for this purpose Four different
specimens of rattlers were comprised
in the suit--black, brown, yellow and
gray-and the judicious arrangement
OF these variegated skins presents Pc
culiar and bizarre effect. The buttons
are rattlesnakes heads stuffed, and
supplied with brilliant bead eyes. Even
Mr.. Gruber's hat and stick are covered
with skins, rendering the attire most
extraordinary. The owner would not

Glass Made by Lightning.

Tubes of glass made by lightning are
often found in sand. The electricity
passes into the ground and melts the
sllicious material, forming little pipes,
the inside diameter of which repre-
sents the bore Of the "thunderbolt. 4"
Such tubes measuring as much as 27
feet in length have been discovered,
No doubt exists as to the method OF
their manufacture, inasmuch as people
have sought fer them and dug them up
still hot from places freshly struck by
lightning. Attempts have been made
to reproduce them artificially by pass
ing a powerful current OF electricity
through finely powdered glass. In this
way pipes nearly an inch long and as
big as a darning needle have been OBJ
tanned. From the comparative size
one gets notion of the enormous en-
crgy of lightning.
