CHANUTE MILL SOLD.

Isaac Otis a. Son have sold their
fine mill at this place. The Otises
came here about two years ago and
took the mill with no trade and In a
bad state of repair and refitted it
throughout and have built up big
trade. They are both masters in thelr
profession and are very agreeable,
genial gentlemen.
We have no objection to their sell
ing their mill If they made a good big
slice of money thereby, but we do ser
iously object to their leaving town
We hope they will engage in some
other line of business. The Otises
are the kind OF men that build up anc
make better town. Would that we
had a few thousand such business
men in Chanute.

Victor Murdock.

There has been much speculation
over the state, ever sinceSthe resig-
nation of Chester |. Long as con-
gressman of the Seventh district as
to whom his successor would be. 1t
has generally been understood that
the state machine was figuring in
the matter and that it would dictate
the nominee. 1t has also been the
understanding that the machine was
sShxhind Mr.. Forsha and that he
would be pushed to the front.
There were a great many candi-
dates for the place and each one
had more or less following, and to
complicate things, several OF the
candidates were members of the
machine and it made it rather a
delicate task to smooth the matter
ont. The anti machine element was
very much In evidence from the
start and were in the saddle. lhey
speedily began to cluster around the
banner of Victor Murdoch, one OF
the bright, brainy young newspaper
men of Kansas and started a STAN
pede on the first formal ballot tha'
gave the nomination to Mr.. Muir
dock before the ballot was com
pleted.
We are inclined to the opinior
that the convention acted wisely an'
used good judgment in that selec'
ton, even though the machine die
get a severe jolt. V.cror Murdoch
is a vigorous young man of go, tulI
of vigor and push. He is fearless
independent writer of great ability
a Jolly, genial man of unimpeach
able integrity and will make hrs
class representative in Washington
For. years he has been managlnt
editor of one of the big papers OF
Kansas, the Wichita Eagle.

On nearly every farm are many
untidy things that are passed by un-
noticed by the owner. A dead tree
in the orchard does no good and
looks bad. Leaving implements
piled up around the barn does not
improve the looks of the premises.
Feeding more grain and hay than
will be eaten is also wasteful. Let
us all take look and see how many
things are out of place.

 NORFOLK, Va, Sept 28. = Rev. John J. Doherty. pastor of St. Mary's church, the largest Catholic church in Norfolk, created consternation at mass when he denounced male members of the parish for splitting on the floor of the church. Father Doherty declared such men desecrated the house of God by their action and were not wanted in the church T have a pretty fair idea of these mems identity" he said, but to be doubly sure I will employ a detective to attend services and re- port expectorators to me. These re- ports will read to the congregation and I will cause the arrest of the guilty parties as violators of the city ordinance prohibiting splitting in public buildings"

TRANSPARENCY OF FLESH.
Act1nic Rays of the Sum Pass Through Human Cheek and Affect Photo
 graphic Dry Plate.

Dr. J. W. Kline, in an article contribut- ed to the Scientific American, gives de- tails of some experiments that show that sunlight will penetrate in a com paratively short time through a consid- erable thickness of flesh. He bound to- gether a small negative and a gelatino- bromide plate of the ordinary kind (that is, not specially sensitized for colorl, and put the Combination be- tween the teeth and the cheek of the subject, taking suitable precautions that no light should enter the mouth. The cheek was then exposed to direct sum- shine in February for 40 seconds, aud in every case it proved that the image was developable. One man had thick, short black beard, and this lessened the exposure effect somewhat Another was a negro, with thick, dark cheek; here the diminution in the light trans mitted was still more marked. No steps were taken to interfere with the circu- 1ation of the blood, and Dr. Kline con- siders that his experiments show that 1t is not necessary, as has been stated, to compress the parts to free them from blood as far as possible when light is used as surgical agent Dr. Kime also states that his experiments show why red light is valuable in the treatment of smallpox. "They prove that no chem ical light of any consequence reaches the patient" when red curtains are fixed over the windows, etc., and so irritation is prevented and subsequent disagure- ment lessened. But, as the photographic plates used were not sensitive to red light, the soundness of this deduction from the experimental results may be doubted.

SAVING STEPS.

FoT the Good Woman of the Farm~
 house and Other Home Workers.
 The woman who does all her own work should make her ''head save her heels" By little foresight and skill ful managing she may do this in an endless variety of ways. The follow ing are some means of saving steps and labor:
 First of all, plan ahead; have regular times for all work, and thus be mis- tress of your work and keep ahead of it.
 When cooking green beans cook enough for two or more meals. Serve once with a plain dressing of butter, salt and pepper, then reheat and serve some more with cream sauce and again serve cold with mayonnafse or French dressing.
 Make enough pie crust for two bak- ings at once, and set the unused part in a cold place until wanted. The last will be better than the first.
 Let the boys or hired man wash bushel or more of potatoes outdoors at one time.
 Cook the breakfast cereal the day before. Cook enough for two or more meals in a double boiler and reheat any number of times. This should be cooked on ironing or baking day to save fuel. Those who object to hay ing the same cereal two mornings in succession can still alternate, as the cooked cereal will keep several days in cold place
 There are many fruits and yegefa- bies which need little or no preparation for the table. Use these generously in season. Serve simply, not untidtly
