Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be.
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

The Twentieth Century Offering
Of the White Stone Charge was one
of the finest made during that car
vass, and a large part of the Offering
was paid within ten days. All pay
ments made were entered upon the
ledger of the treasurer of the fund
and receipts sent to Rev. O. r.
James, pastor of the charge. The
books of the treasurer show that the
payments were made In accordance
with the list which follows. When
the treasurer settled with the vsri-
ous institutions all moneys that had
been paid In were turned over to
those institutions and a list was fur
nished them of the names of sub
scribers to the fund, and the amounts
due by the subscribers were indi-
Gated on the lists furnished. There
were several thousand names to be
transcribed, and in that large num-
Der it happened that some few mis-
takes occurred in placing opposite
the names the amounts still due,
and some of these occurred in the
White Stone Charge, and conse-
quently some of the subscribers
received cards which called for a
larger amount than is still due.
Such errors in transcription as soon
as they are discovered are rectifed
by reference to the treasurer's books,

Women who value their jewels may
be glad to receive a few hints on their
care and management. Pearls, it is
said. should be inclosed in a box con-
tanning a piece of the root of the ash,
lose a jot of their pristine beauty.
Diamonds are easily cleaned by plac-
ing them under a tap and allowing a
rush of cold water to deluse them. But
this is a dangerous experiment. as a
stone may be loosened in the operation.
A better plan is to carefully wash them
with a light lather of soap on a soft
brush, wash off the lather with cold
water and polish with chamois leather
dipped in eau de cologne.
Diamond ornaments tied UP in a little
bag of bran preserve their brilliancy in
a wonderful way.
Jewels may often safely be cleaned
with cold water and ordinary yellow
soap. 1t is advisable, however, to lay
them in sawdust rather than dry them
in the ordinary way.
If opals have become scratched OF
spoiled in wear, rub them softly in a
moistened wash leather, then polish
with precipitated chalk with another
piece of leather and finally wash with
rainwater and a soft brush.
Ivory ornaments. brushes. powder
boxes, paperkniyes. etc. may be whit
ened with peroxide Of hydrogen OIL
cleansed with a brush STEPPED in water
to which good pinch of carbonate o.
soda has been added.

TO RECOVER BRIDGES.
County Commissioners to Ad-
vertise for Bids.

The county commissioners have decid-
ed to call for bids for the recovery of
the Kansas river bridges and after the
bridges have been removed from the
river the commissioners will then decide
which bridges shall be replaced.
The commissioners have practically
decided not to expend any money at
present on the Granville and Maple
Hill bridges. The Granville bridge con-
meets Shawnee and jefferson counties
Shawnee and Wabaunsee counties. The
bridges in Shawnee county will be re-
placed before they are. The Wabaunsee
commissioners asked the Shawnee board
to appropriate $4,000 toward the Maple
Hill bridge. The commissioners refused
to make the appropriation. Then the
Wabaunsee commissioners attempted to
get a bill passed at the special session
of the legislature which would nave
compelled Shawnee county to bear half
the expense. The bill was defeated.
The Maple Hill bridge was originally
built by subscription and Shawnee
county appropriated $4,000 toward it.
The bridge contra ctors have engineered
the scheme for rebuilding it and have
tried several ways to force Shawnee
county to bear the greater part of the
expense. The bridge contractors sprung
a paper Oh the county commissioners,
signed by former commissioners, which
the bridge contra ctors claimed would
force the Shawnee commissioners to re-
place the bridge The commissioners
could not be bluffed and now the bridge
contractors are looking for new ways to
force the rebuilding of the bridge.

the meringues round with narrow rib

would be an appropriate and dainty

the little meringues as cases in which

Cause of the Suicide of Sculptor
Donaghue.

New Haven, Conn, July 6.-The body
of the man who committed suicide by
shooting in Whitneyville last Thursday,
has just been identified as that of
sculptor John Donaghue of New York
The identification was made by D. H.
Robbins of New York, who said that a
few days ago he received a note from
Donoghue announcing his intention to
commit suicide
New York. July 4Donoghue's sui
eide is said to have been the result of
dependency due to the rejection of his
design for a $50, 000 memorial to the late
President Mckinley, which it is pro-
posed to erect in Philadelphia. Donog-
hue had executed some notable pieces
of sculpture which We're highly praised
both at home and in Europe. He was
of a modest retiring disposition, how
ever. and failed of the recognition that
he felt was his due and the rejection of
his Mckinley memorial plan caused him
to lose heart completely.
