MINERS RECEIVE
 NEWS IN SILENCE
Hear Report That Mines Will
 Resume Today
THE MEN WILL NOT TALK
Believed That Few If Any Members of the Pratt City Local Will Ac- cept the Offer of the Ten
 nessee Company.

Pratt City, August 9.-(special 1.-The re- port that an effort would be made to resume work at the mines tomorrow has caused little excitement in Pratt City. So far as can be ascertained no prepara- tions have been made to begin work to- morrow at any of the mines in this dis trict. The miners still maintain the si- lence and steadiness that have character ized them throughout the entire strike.
 The men heard the report that the mines would be opened tomorrow without any demonstration whatever. They re- fused absolutely to discuss the situation, otherwise than to say that they are for law and order first, last and all the time. as a prominent miner put It. If the report that the mines would be opened affected the position of tue miners any, it was to make them more determined.
 The commissary will be reopened toe morrow and the members of the local will receive another weeks supply of provis- ions. In addition to the commissary on First avenue another branch store will be established at Pratt station for the purpose of distributing supplies to the miners who belong to the Wylam local but live at Pratt City.
 So far no movement has been made to erect the houses that the Tennessee oom- pany has stated that it proposed to build at No. mine.
 The general opinion now prevails that very few if any members of the Pratt City local will avail themselves of the Tennessee companys offer to return to work tomorrow.
 Mines No. and No. 10 are still in con- tinuous operation and are said to be mak- ing good records. The coal mined by Nos 8 and 10 is being shipped direct to the steel plant at Ensley

ONIONS AS A MEDICINE.

Every housewife knows that onions
are a kind of ~all-round good medicine,
without knowing why.
She knows that a solid red onion
eaten at bedtime will by the next morn
ing break the severest cold.
She also knows that onions make q
good plaster to remove inflammation
and h~oarseness, but she does not know
why.
III any one would take an onion and
mash it so as to secure all the juice in
it, he would have a most remarkable
smelling substance that would quiet
the most nervous person.
The strength Of this substance in.
hailed for a few moments will dull the
sense of smell aud weaken the nerves
until sleep is produced from sheer ex-
haustion.
This all IN from one property
possessed by the onio., and that is a
form of opium.

Homemade Coffee.

A mistake that ! made for 10 years
was in buying store coffee at 90 cents
per pound. when a substitute just as
good can be made at home for not to
exceed 2 cents per pound. Directions
for making: One pound bran, one cup
corn meal, two-thirds cup molasses, sorg-
hum preferred. Put bran and corn
meal in dishpan and stir. then pour the
molasses over them and rub between
the hands till well mixed. Place the
mixture in a bread pan and set in the
oven to brown. Stir occasionally to
prevent burning. and brown it as dark
as possible without burning. Use a
heaping teaspoonful Of the coffee to each
person, pour boiling water ON it and set
back on the stove. 1t is ready for use
almost Immediately. and with good rich
cream added you have a cup fit for a
king. AS this coffee requires nc grind
ing, it saves time and is also economical
from a financial standpoint.-Mrs. Sadie
Shroyer.

When the birds from wood and a
In their hidden nests are curled.
Then I think OF all the babies
That are sleeping in the world.
There are babies in the highlands
And babies In the low:
There are pale ones wrapped in furry
skins
On the margin of the snow.
And brown mes naked in the isles
Where all the spices grow.
And some are in the palace
On a white and downy bed.
And some are in the garnet.
With a clcut beneath their head.
And some are on the cold. hard earth.
Whose mothers nave no bread
oh. little men and women.
Dear flowers yet unblown;

OF the pageant yet ~unshown,
Sleep soft and dream pale dreams now:
Tomorrow Is your own
