Isn't This Absolutely TrueP

Nothing ever became popular-here or

As with men, so with goods. So with
any article that is on the market. 1t can
not increase its sales, it cannot be adopt
ed as a standard Article, it cannot sur

Millions of dollars spent in advertising
any article without merit, are just wasted,
so far as continued sales are concerned.
Intelligent housekeepers cannot be com

That much is a self-evident fact. 1t
cannot be gainsaid. But it tells its own
story of Lion Coffee and its quallty-a
coffee that has been the leader OF all

of a century, that has steadily grown IN
the affections of millions of American
homes since the first introduction, long,

Its ~unexcelled flavor, perfect purity, ano

THE EVENING
Ali Are White or Pale Yellow and All
Are Characterized by Extreme
Fragrance.

Evening boomers have a great fas-
cination for me, seeming to have a
special purpose in their growth. Flow
ers are supposed to be placed on this
earth to beautify it, and 1t seems
strange that some of the most attrac-
tive ones bloom at twilight n are
gone as o as the morning u
strikes them. They beautify the earth
only at a time when they can be seen
and admired but little. They must
have been so made for use or some
Of the night-fying moths or other In
sects, as they are so often seen lying
among such flowers.
With the exception Of the four
O'Clock, which can not properly be
called an evening bloomer, all these
flowers are white or very pale yellow,
and there must also be an object In
this: the pale shades of the flowers al
lowing them to show so much more
plainly in the dim evening n nlgnt
light so that they are easily found by
insects.
Then, too, all evening boomers are
extremely fragrant, the strong odor
| being carried all over the garden as
| soon as the flowers begin to open
which doubtless also helps to attract
insects, without whose aid many OF
them would not produce seed to per-
| petuate the species. There is a great
| field for study in this subject for those
who are interested in it, and the best
way in which to do so is to plant a col
| lection of these flowers III STUDY
them when in bloom.
Some of the flowers open so quickly
that even if closely watching them
one may miss the opening by glancing
away ever for a second. Others, such
as some varieties of evening primrose
open with a decided snap, which can
sometimes be plainly heard. Some
open so slowly that one can watch
them for a long time, scarcely reallz-
ing any change until the flower is full
blown.
Evening boomers are mostly an
nuals. and easily grown by anyone,
but as they are so plain and COM
m~on-looking, except in the night, when
in blossom. a space should be selected
for Their. in the back Of the yard, Where
they can be fully enjoyed when III
bloom. but where they will not de-
tract from the beauty Of the garden
during the day. The white datura, va
riousIy called sweet nightingale, an
gels trumpet, wedding bells and ghost
flower, is one of the best of this class
of plants.-Ohio Farmer.

SOME CHICKEN RECIPES.
For Fricassee and Smothered Chicken
and Chicken with Crust and
Also One for Broiler.

Some one wished for different ways
for cooking chickens and fowls. Here
are a few ways. They are all good.
Smothered Chicken.-Cut up the
chicken as for frieassee, wash and let
it stand in water a little while. Drain,
season. dredge with flour, put in a
dripping pan not quite covered, dot
with bits of butter. Cover closely and
bake until tender. When done take
from the pan and make a gravy.
Fricassee.-Cut up chicken or fowl,
wash, put 1t in water enough to cover
1t, cook until tender, add salt. Thick
en- the gravy AMI serve. Where one
has a large family l think this is one
of the best ways of cooking chicken or
fowl, as it goes further.
Chicken with Crust.-Joint chicken,
cook until tender, seasO to taste,
place in a shallow pan with a little
graHy and pour over it a batter made
as follows: One and one-half cups
-four, one heaping teaspoon baking
powder sifted together, one-half tea
spoon salt. Mix with one-half cup
cream and one cup milk and bake in a
| quick oven. Thicker the gravy that
was left from the chicken when put
into the oven and use as a dressing.
This is a nice way to cook a small
| chicken (broiler or a little larger).-
Joint it. wash and drain it, season it
| dip it in beaten egg, then in crumbs;
lay in a dripping pan; put little butter
in the par before putting chicken in
and little bits on top of chicken, Oh
one can use salt pork; if liked, put IL
over and bake until done; l think
| about half an hour; when done take
up. put a little water in pan and thick
en-. The gravy can be poured Over
| chicken or not, just as you choose.
serve them separately.-Boston Globe

Yellow Bedrooms.

Yellow bedrooms are especially cool
and f~resh-looking in summer. Select a
pale yellow, not the warmer shades.
Peoples. tulips and small roses are to
be had in wall papers. There should
be plenty of green foliage, and the eff
feet is better if the white ceiling be
brought down as far as the picture
molding, which, in turn, should be no
higher than the tops of doors and win
dows. With the yellow paper green
stained furniture is very good, or white
enamel may be used. In such a room
the narrow iron bed had a covering OF
pale green sateen over which was laid
dotted swiss spread. The furniture
was white, and cushions, etc., were
plain green. The n rug was of braid
ed rags in several shades of green.

cleanses the skin, but has the effect
of causing a slight chafng that sets

The Evolution of the Pen.

The patent Office at Washington has
a collection Of pens that illustrates the
difficulties with which men had to CON
tend before they found a suitable in
strumrnt with which to write There
are the styluses used by the ancient,
the instruments for writing on wax
tablets, one end sharp like an anvil. the
other fat like a paper cutter There
are the brushes used by the japanese
and Chinese and quilts of every vari-
ETY., together with an infinite number
Of steel pens. But the most curious
are some quill pens with steel points
They were made in an effort to do
away with the constant necessity for
the mending Of the pen, process that
few could perform properly and that
everybody hated. The effort was very
ingenious. but unsuccessful, because
the points could not be made to stay.

Dear Sisters of the White Ribbon Band:
Although / have had no standing in
your ranks OF late, my heart is In the
work, and / read every word in your col
umn whenever there is anything, and now
want to add my mite.
recall the time when we began to work
in this county, and as l follow up the
years see great gain. We are no longer
looked upon as a band OF cranks, but all
acknowledge us to be a power for good.
What would people have thought twenty
years ago to have ministers stand up in
the pulpit and talk OF enforcing the liquor
law-as everyb body then called It?
To-day the minister who Is not for en-
forcement has not many calls to fiji va
cant pulpits, and 1 much doubt IL he has
call from God even 10 be proclaimer OF
the gospel.
Is not even the "Bsngor plan" in dan
ger when the ministers OF that city take
the stand they did last Sunday? God hep
each one OF them and their people.
Here In our dear Old Hancock county,
may we not look for better things In the
coming year? Let US each ask what is
there for US to do; then when the answer
comes, do 1t,
IL lam not out OF place will come again.

Male shoppers prcferrcd.


"Saleswomel would rather wait upon
ten men customers than one woman"
said floor manager of experience
There is no question but men make
the best and most agreeable shoppers.
They know what they want are easily
suited and are not fussy They have a
genial way that makes them easier to
satisfy than women are. Their man
ners are not SO stiff.
NO nau ever brushes a salesglri with
4 naughty stare Men seldom hagele
over prices. They may easily be per-
suaded to buy higher priced article
if they have the money and You can
convince them they are getting their
moneys worth. Men show good taste
and Judgment in buying articles they
know little about. Their fondncss for
large sizes borders on the ridiculous
sometimes. Shoes, gloves, shirts-they
want them all with ample room.

MAINE GRANITE.
Monolith from Maine for the New
York Custom House.

Monolith from Maine for the New
York Custom House.
The fifty ton stone which is to form the
Intel OF the custom house, fronting
Bowling Green, New York, was moved
last week from the bulkhead between
piers and 4, East river, up Whitehall
street to a point from which it can be
hoisted into place, says the New York
Tribune. Four automobile trucks carried
1t. There were no accidents, except for
the breaking of four maDhole covers over
which the stone passed.
This stone, next to Cieopatra's Needle
In Central park, is the biggest monolith
in New York city, exceeding in weigh
even the sections of the great pillars OF
the cathedral OF st. John the Divine, or
those OF the new Hall OF Records. 1t is
of smoothly dressed granite, and was
brought here month ago on the schooner
William Booth from the quarries at Hur-
ricane Island, in Penobscot bay, Maine.
1t Is thirty one feet long, five feet broad
and three feet six inches thick.
1t cost the government $500 to have the
schooner bearing the stone towed from
the quarry to this city and the moving of
1t to the custom house has cost So, 00O
more. The big stone is insured, SO that II
it falls through the street, or is damaged
In any way, the government will be reim-
bursed. Its value is $4,000

Sometimes 1t does happen to make a

urer Of a church.

A NEW YEARS WISH.
wish that sympathy and Love,
And every human passion
That has Its origin above,
Would come and keep In fashion;
That Scorn and Jealousy and Hate,
And every base emotion,
Were buried fifty fathoms deep,
Beneath the waves of ocean.
wish that friends were always true,
And motives always pure;
wish the good we're not go few,
wish the bad were fewer;
wish that persons ne'er forgot
To heed their pious teaching;
wish that practising were not
So different from preaching.
wish, in fine. that Joy and Mirth,
And every good ideal,
May come erewhile throughout the earth
To be the glorious real;
TIL God shall every creature bless
With His supremest blessing,
And hope be lost in happiness,
And wishing In possessing!
| wish that modest worth might be
Appraised with truth and candor;
wish that innocence were free
From treachery and SANDER;
/ wish that men their vows would mind,
That women meier were rovers;
wish that wives were always kind,
And husband always lovers!
