Talk about your literature and books
of other days
How you can push your pencil in every
way that pays
Talk about Demosthenes and all the
ancient gang,
Euripides and Aesthylus whose praises
Athens sang
But for money that is easy which en-
ables you to dress
Just try stunt little while on the
territory press
Dickens made some money on "Veller"
and Pickwick,
Mgcaulay stirred Barere up with
sharpen'd stick,
Vanity Fair made fortune for Make
peace Thackeray
And Walter Scott got out of debt on
the troubandour's last day
But when you want corner lot we
honestly confess
You'll never get your money on the
territory press.
You can run in putfs on Hitchcock
and J. Blair Shoenfelt
You can praise up all the churches
till the pocket books will melt
You can touch up Charlie Haskell and
all the Midland crew
And tell the people that there's naught
absolutely new,
Should you wish to attend a party
decked out in fullest dress
How can you get the money from the
territory press?
When you start to tackle Peter at the
bright and pearly gate,
When you see the ticket taker in all
his glorious state
When you see the Dawes Commission
filing through without pass,
And the territory editors reading signs
keep off the grass
You'll hear voice from heaven: ''the
best and nothing less
Must be given to the editors of the
territory press. "

Inventions That Have Worked Won.
dcrs In CInssmnl<ing.
In 1927 a carpenter of Sandwich
Mass, wanting a piece of glass Of q
particular size and shape, conceived
the idea that the molten metal could be
pressed into any form. much the same
as lead might be, writes William T.
Stewart in the Cosmopolitan. Up to
that time all glassware had been
blown either offhand or in mold, and
considerable skill was required, and
the process was slow The glass man
ufacturers laughed at the carpenter,
but he went ahead and built press,
aud now the United States Is the
greatest pressed glassware country in
the world.
In 1890 novice in the plate glass I'm
dustry, Henry Fleckner Of Pittsburg,
whose only knowledge of glass had
been acquired in window glass fac
tory, invented an annealing "lehr," the
most important single Improvement
ever introduced in plate glass manu-
facture. In three hours by the lehr the
same work is done which under the old
kiln system required three days.
About the same year Philip Argobast
Of Pittsburg. also a novice In glass
making, invented process by which
bottles and jars may be made entirely
by machinery, the costly blow oven
process being avoided and the expense
of bottle making reduced one-half.

please, right away"
"What do you need the money for
Ermagarde?"
swell, now, you see, I'm going to gel
married, and need it for the license
"But if the man you are to marry
cannot pay for the license how is he
going to support you?"
"That's just what want to explain
to you, Miss Sophie You see, tomorrow
is Thanksgiving, and we are coming to
your free dinner. Then you always
give us something to take home, and in
the evening the Kings Daughters are
going to have basket distribution,
and we shall each get one. That will

time we'll be on our feet"

CULINARY CONCEITS.

Pies will be soggy If set on top Of q
hot stove after being baked.
Thin sugar cookies If favored with
bitter almond make a good. substitute
for macaroons. ss
Raisins for fruit cake are much i'm
proved by cooking. Let them soak
slowly and then simmer until the skin
Is tender.
Should your soup be too salty add a
sliced raw potato and cook a few mo-
ments longer, as the potato will absorb
the surplus salt.
Soup is made into a most nourishing
broth by adding about teaspoonful OF
oatmeal to the pot. Any one Of the
many oatmeals may be used for this
purpose. S
The toughest beef or chicken can be
made tender and palatable by putting
q good spoonful Of cider vinegar in the
pot in which it is boiling or in the Juice
with which it is basted If roasting In
q pan.

y The people Of all nations are super

tinue the subject, and In a few min
utes he will state, "While / am not
superstitious, vet must say always

he Is about as superstitious as the
average of mankind. Charms and aim
ulets are made of almost everything,
from repulslve collection of human
fingers. human bones, frogs, toads,
snakes, pieces of glass, stone, iron,
dried blood, bottles of water, etc., to
elegant and artistic combinations of
gold and precious stones. For many

The abracadabra Of the aneients, the

the convention hall rang with speeches
orators presenting the pro and con Of
the issues. Favorable speeches were
made by Senator Simons, VIM. Alden
Smith and Gen. Dufield. Hon. Perry f.
Powers made an opposing speech and
when the motion for adoption of pri'
mary reform was put to vote it fell
/ short. the result being S04 for 1t and
TIA against.
The Nominations.
The question of primary reform hav'
| ing been disposed of, the next order OF
business was the nomination of state
! officers. General Duffield set the ball
rolling by presenting the name OF IIo.
mer Warren.
Then came Henry G. Smith Of Adri.
an, who In the best nominating speech
of the day, put before the convention
| the name Of George B. Horton.
Samuel w. Smith Of the sixth dis
trict nominated Mr.. Warner.
Then came the roll call. Allegan
cast its Is votes for Justice S. Stearns,
whose name had not been presented.
Bay, Branch, Calhoun, Clinton, Eaton,
tennessee, Gratiot, Hillsdale, Huron,
jackson and Kalamazoo got in their
strokes for Warner and the expected
was happening very rapidly.
Warren was getting few scatter
ing votes, but not enough to encourage
his friends. The first big vote for Hor-
ton was cast by Grand Traverse with
its nine. He also got the twenty-six
from Lenawee, five from Lapeer, two
from Lake and one from Monroe.
Stearns got the solid vote of Kent.
Horton Surrendered First.
Horton was the FIRST candidate to
cry enough" for just before Onton-
agon was reached he arose and said
It was very evident that Warner was
the choice of the majority and he was
ready to acquiesce in all cheerfulness.
He therefore moved that the nomina-
ton Of Warner be made unanimous.
William Alden Smith seconded the
motion. H. NJ Duffield, in behalf Of
Homer Warren and the Wayne delega-
ton also seconded the motion and pan,
demonium, that wild king that has
stampeded many convention, slipped
its collar and reigned for at least fif-
teen minutes. A committee was imme-
diately delegated to bring In the candi-
date, and upon his arrival more pan
demonium reigned." Mr.. Warner
spoke briefly to the convention in ap-
probation of what they had done.
Homer Warren followed with neat
speech, which showed that SO far as he
was concerned the situation was ac-
cepted with becoming grace.
Then came Mr. Horton with
speech along harmony lines, and ev-
cry one was happy.
Other Nominees.
The nominees for land commissioner
were e. B. Nugent Of Bay, Edwin M.
Gardner of Cheboygan, William II.
Rose of Clinton and H. H. Woodruff Of
Roscommon. The roll call showed
Rose to be in the lead. He was elect
ed by reclamation.
The nomination of the rest of the
ticket was rushed through.
Patrick H. Kelley Of Detroit was
superintendent of public In
struction by reclamation and the same
courtesy was shown Luther L. Wright
of Ironwood as member OF the state
board of education.
After authorizing the state central
committee to fill all vacancies In its.
own body and on the state ticket that
may occur, the convention adjourned
at 6:45 local time.
