The geological survey has completed
an exhaustive investigation of the fuel
properties of Texas and other oils, com
pared with anthracite coal, the result Of
which will be issued partly in the form
of report prepared by Prof. Charles
Willard Hayes. Prof. Hayes says that
single barrel of oil has fuel value of at
least So compared with anthracite coal
at $3.50 or 81 ton. In view of the fact
that 100000 barrels of oil were shipped
last year from the Texan field at cost
of not more than 40 cents barrel, the
advantage of oil over coal as cheap fuel
easily is established. Prof Hayes will
point out that the capacity of the Texas
field is practically unlimited and that
with the substitution of devices for the
consumption of oil for coal CRATES now so
universally in use the shipments easily
could reach 2)000,000 barrels year
without causing a material increase of
price Bulk steamers of 60 600 barrels
capacity or more can deliver the oil from
Texas to seaport cities at very low rates
Such a distribution is recommended as
economical because the oil re- ion OF
Texas as now developed is at no place
over forty miles from the coast and the
big wells are but twenty miles inland.

AMONG the notables who have gone
forth from Albion academy to make their
mark in the world, we take pleasure in
mentioning James j. Mccarthy, son of
James Mccarthy of the town of Dunkirk
Dane county, who resides at Ponca, Ne
braska, and who has been nominated by
the repu blicans for member Of congress
to represent the third district of that
state. He is about forty-fve years old
and went to Nebraska twenty years
ago and studied law at Davis City. Last
year he represented Dixon county IN the
legislature and was for three terms con-
secutively chosen district attorney.
Through the ups and downs Of popu-
lism, fusion, anti monopoly and other
political vagaries he has never been de-
feated though he always stood squarely
for republican principles. Ten years the
district has been populistic but it is con-
tidenty expected that he will swing it
into line for his party. Mr.. Mccarthy
owns neat little cottage at Atkinson's
park, Lake Kegonsa, where he and his
family usually spend the summer months,
but this year he was unable to come be-
cause of his business and politics.

Otis Skinner Has Genuine Antiques.

Several from Edgerton are planning
on trip to GAINESVILLE Oh the evening Of
Monday, Sept. 10, to see Otis Skinner at

a stickler for historical accuracy of de-

to diligent research III order that his
coming production of "Lazarre" may in
every way be convincing and perfect.
Stories of actors attention to detail in
the presentation of various plays are we'll

the impersonator of the characters of an
historic period to feel that he is &C
cousted in the actual habiliments of the
time he represents; to know that he is
wearing fob, a rapier, ring, jewel
peculiar to that date, Or to have upon
his stage genuine piece of furniture
handed down from other days Correct
ness of stage detail had a marked begin
ming with the productions of Charles
Kean, and the following in this direc-
ton has become a fad with many actors.

IT IS more fun to see a man read a puff
about himself in newspaper than to
see fat man slip on banana pee says
an exchange. The narrow minded man
reads it over seven or eight times and
then goes around and appropriates what
copies he can. The kind hearted man
goes and reads it to his wife and then
goes around to the office and pays what
he owes The successful business man,
who advertises regularly and makes
money at it, Immediately starts out to
find the editor and then the two walk
silently and thoughtfully down the street
together, and the business man takes
sugar in his and both eat Glove or two,
and life is sweet, and peace settles down
on their hearts for moment Such is
the experience of mustard seeds that fall
on different ground.

SOMEBODY has figured out that to sup
ply the state of Wisconsin with sugar
would take 10 factories elch with ca
pacity of 600 tons of beets day, which
would call for an investment of some
100000 and would require something
like 100000 acres of sugar beets to be
raised on the lands of 10000 farmers. 1t
would distribute 100000 annually to
the growers of the beets and one and
one-half million dollars for wages and
supplies at the sugar factories.

ACCORDING to an exchange, farmers in
other localities are showing their appre-
citation of the benefits which they derive
from the free delivery routes by donat-
ing each bag of oats to the carriers
whose salary is none too high when it is
considered that out of it must come feed
for one or two horses. AS this is year
of plenty, the farmers along the sur
rounding routes would never feel it if
they followed the generous example set
in other communities.

ammonia to gallon of water Rub
gently with the hands, squeezing,

be too generous in the use of soap and

Use only in solution. Rinse through

where women May Not Pray.


There Is practically universal pro-
hibition against women praying in Mo-
hammedan countries They are not
admitted beyond the thresholds Of the
mosques; but, on the other hand, the
Koran distinctly encourages women to
pray in private. Some Hindoo congre-
cations deny the privilege of prayer to
their women altogether. Among the
Ainu, a race supposed to be the abo-
rhymes Of Japan, women are not per-
mitted to pray or offer sacrifice except
in rare cases as the deputies of their
husbands. The reason for this prac-
tice is that the Ainu women are not
supposed to possess souls, and there
fore their prayers would be quite I'M
availing. Among the natives of Mad
agascar women are permitted to pray,
but only to the powers of evil, kind
Of microscopy prayer. Only men are
permitted to address prayers directly
to the Supreme Being.

Resisting Power.

Doctors tell us in these days Of germ

most in a case is the resisting power"
of the patient. Some men and women
can pass through an epidemic or even
be inoculated with it's peculiar poison
germs and yet shake off infection, I'M
harmed. Others apparently just as
healthy succumb to the first contact
with disease and sink under it in spite
of the best nursing. Resisting power
Is an individual affair, and many sur
prises come to doctor and nurses as the
frail looking patient pulls through and
the robust seeming one dies. Medi-
cines can only aid the ''resisting pow
err" They can never take it's place. 1t
determines in the end life or death in
every case.-Scottish American.

How to Mend Lace Curtains,

If your lace curtains are badly torn
when they return from the wash, try
mending them this way: Buy some
plain curtain net in about the same
size mesh as the groundwork of your
curtains. Cut pieces sufficiently large
to overlap the holes, dip each in cold
starch; lay the curtain on an ironing
board wrong side up. Place a piece
Of the net carefully over a hole and
iron with a moderately hot iron till
quite dry. Do the other holes in the
same way. If curtains are pretty
long, it is sometimes possible to cut
sufficiently large piece either from the
top or bottom to do the patching.

What to DO with old Hats.

If you want to make the best use of
any old hats that you may have, you
should take them to the Nicobar is
lands. There you will be received
with enthusiasm, for the people who
live in these islands have quite a pas
sion for them. Every one likes them,
and every one tries to get as many as
he can. On a fine morning the sea
roundabout these islands may be seen
dotted with canoes in each of which
is savage, with nothing at all on but
strip of cloth round his waist and a
tall hat and the funny part of it is
that old hats are very much more
sought after than new ones. The Nico.
bar natives regard new hats with sus-
picion and dislike.

Dainty Furniture.

An artist decorator says the finely
carved French walnut in the exquisite
ly delicate natural wood color is the
best for drawing room furniture. The
carving may be In the Louis XIV. style.
Sometimes more ordinary wood Ii
used and is then painted to carry out
the room scheme. For summer espe-
cially these frames are more desirable
with fine cane seats, which may be
painted to match the wood. In white,
with the wood in Wedgwood tint,
they are very good.
Such drawing rooms have panels nm
ished with corners exactly like those
of the furniture.

CARE OF UMBRELLAS.
How They Should BE Rolled ana
Drained.

How They Should Be Rolled ana
Drained.
A handsome umbrella is well worth
taking care Of, and to do this requires
little thought and good judgment,
says the Philadelphia Record. In roll
Ing an umbrella instead Of twisting
with handle take hold of it just above
the points Of the cover ribs. These
points naturally lie evenly around the
stick. Keep hold Of these. pressing
them tightly against the stick, and
then roll up the cover Holding the
ribs prevents them from getting twist
ed out Of place or bending out Of shape.
Then the silk is bound to fold evenly
and roll smooth and tight.
When an umbrella has been out in a
rain, it should be placed to drain i'm
mediately upon your return to the
house, and it should be drained in the
position in which one carries an UNI
brella. To do this place the handle Of
the umbrella on a small stand that will
not retain the drippings, and there let
it remain until thoroughly dry. II

soak into the leather at the top and
will gradually tend to rot it out, so the
life Of the umbrella will be greatly
shortened. ..... t --
Many persons are extremely fond Of
having handsome handles for their
umbrellas, and this very pleasant fad
may be carried out without very great
expense. Handsome handles may be
purchased separate from the umbrella
and may be adjusted without trouble,
provided care is taken when selecting
the handles to secure those of SINH
lar make to the umbrella. In some UNI
brellaS the screw is fastened to the
stick; in others the stick has a hollow
place for the reception of the screw.
In every case it is wise to select an
umbrella from which the handle may
be removed, as then the umbrella may
be easily packed if necessary in a
much smaller space than when the
handle is stationary.

Havoc Of Responsibility,

The funniest case of absentminded-

Louis the other day. A pale, nervous
looking young fellow came into the
grocery with his baby on one arm and
the coal oil can on the other. He set
the can on the counter and said gently,
"Sit there moment, dear" Then,
holding the baby to the dazed clerk, he

How to Clean Fine Lace.

fine lace is to spread it on clean cloth
sewed about a board, arrange every
point carefully and haste it to the
cloth. Then 60 over the lace carefully
with clean linen rag dipped in hot
borax water until all soil is removed;
then use clean water to rinse away all
trace Of the borax. Sometimes little
thin starch is added to the last rinse
water, but that is a matter of personal
taste Put the board and lace in the
sun to dry, cut away the stitches, re-
move the lace, fold it in blue paper and
lay it away until needed.

How to Make Delicious Lemonade.
Perfect lemonade is not common. To
make it at it's best the water and sugar
should be boiled together to form a
sirup. Allow half a pound of sugar to
each quart of water and boil together
for five minutes, then strain and stand
aside to cool. Allow four good sized
lemons, rub two Of them with a few
Jumps of sugar until they have alb
sorbed the oil. Add them to the sirup,
then extract the juice from all the
lemons; rem ove the pips and stir into
the sugar and water. When needed,
add ice and serve very cold in thin
tumblers. TO make a slightly more
elaborate drink add a few crushed
strawberries or raspberries, a few
slices of pineapple or few, of orange,
as may be in season. ,... !
