To Take Imp.e .sion. Of Leaves.

This is a most fascinating occupa-
ton, although at this time of year
there is not very wide field for such
pastime. Procure some lamp-black
and linseed oil at any colorman's, and
mix the two together until OF a
greasy consistency.
Now make small pad with piece
of chamois leather, dip it into the
mixture and apply it very lightly to
the under part of the leaf; take great
care not to apply it too thickly, and
rub of any superfluous black Place
the leaf so treated between two
sheets of white paper, and lay an
other over all and rub firmly, being
careful not to shift the paper. If the
impression is a trifle blurred, repeat
on clean paper and clear impress
sion will be the result.

The editor Of the paper at Coyle,
Okla, asks in large letters, who
makes the town." To make a town
requires the work of many people. It
is surely not the man who earns his
wages in the town and then spends
his earnings elsewhere; not the farm
er who sells his produce to the home
merchant and then takes the money
to the express or post Office and sends
it to the Chicago mail order house
for the goods he needs; nor the minis
ter who is paid for preaching by the
business interests of the place, and
spends his spare time in working up
grocery clubs for an outside concern.
No, brother, these men do not make
towns.

Mis6ta In sonas,

I'm going to see new American

American plays these days are written
by English authors"
Il hope they are more apropos than

Cotton fields way down in Old New

Killino the Small Towns.

1t Is impossible to build up towns
without there being business to en-
ploy the. people who reside in them.
The mail order system of doing bust
moss is killing off the small town, and
as a result the farmers residing near
them suffer by having a poor market,
and poor schools and other blessings
of the kind that go with the live town.
Not alone this but farm values are
kept down.

Pair of Banana Dishes.

Banana Pie.-Line pie plate with
rich crust and then place layer Of
rich smooth apple sauce on the bot
tom; over this place layer of thinly
sliced bananas, sprinkle with lemon
juice and powdered sugar; place over
all thin layer of puff paste and
bake.
Baked Bananas.-The bananas are
cut into quarters and arranged in an
agate baking dish; a mixture is then
prepared of one-third cup Of sugar,
two tablespoonfuls OF lemon juice.
Half of this is poured over the ba.
nanas, which are then set in the oven
to bake for 20 minutes: while baking
the fruit should be frequently basted
with the rest of the sauce. and when
done they are truly delicious, and
may be served at almost any meal.
hot or cold.

For Summer Comfort.

Nothing wears and stands frequent
washing and hard usage in summer
pillow covers for hammocks, living
rooms and verandas like natural COL
ored linen.
For hard-wear summer hangings
cream.colored seersucker finished with
cotton fringe is ideal, for it issues
from the laundry numberless times
without sign of wear, and it is al.
ways clean and cool-looking.

nurnlno Old PAPERS.

It is often dimcult to dispose Of old
papers, for, II burned, they are apt to
be carried blazing up the chimney and
set it alight. To destroy them with
out danger. roll the papers up lightly,
wind them round with wire, and then
place them lengthways in the crate.
Thus they will consume slowly like
a log, and perfectly safely. The same
wire will do duty again and again.

A New Entree,

An entree new to some of the
guests at a recent luncheon was
green peppers stuffed with creamed
chicken with which a little parmesan
cheese had been mixed. The tops
were covered with buttered crumbs,
and they were baked for about half
an hour. In baking any such prep
aration, the dish containing it should
be covered, excepting for the last few
minutes that it is in the oven, when
the top should be allowed to brown.

Tea Leave. Kill Reaches.

Try wet tea leaves as a means Of
destroying cockroaches. Just squeeze
the leaves with the hands and lay on
sheets of paper near the hearth, when
shutting up for the night. The cock
reaches go to the leaves and the tannin
kills them.

For Ease in WALKING.

New walking shoes often blister the
heels of their wearer by slipping lit
tie with the movement of the foot.
To prevent this, rub the inside Of the
shoes at the heel with soap just before
uutting them on.

The American homes are the most

ship Is found the bulwark of our re-
publican government.
Where the home life is ideal, there
is found genuine patriotism which is
always commensurate with the en-
lightenment and the domestic happi-
ness of the people. How important It
is then that every safeguard be
thrown about the home, which is the
hotbed where are produced for devel-
opment all the strength that is neces-
sary for the perpetuation Of govern
ment and the maintenance of ma
tons greatness.
The student who will study into
conditions of the countries that are
continually wrecked by internal tur-
moil, such as Russia and the Central
American republics, will discover the
homes are far from ideal homes, and
that there is an absence of the love
of country that should be found in the
hearts of it's citizens. There is duty
that involves upon all, and which is
due to the generations growing and to
come The duty Is to surround the
home with such environments as will
make it attractive and develop in the
growing youth the highest qualities Of
manhood and womanhood. Where the
people are oppressed by monarchy
and feudalism there is no incentive to
! develop the highest state of home life.
In America where all are upon an
equal plane and opportunities are
open to every citizen, and where the
people are secure in their rights to
homes, there is every reason why
each one should make the greatest en-
deavor to found for himself and his
progeny a residence place that will
be sure from intrusion and be an in
centive to higher mental and social
development
Education is all important and no
other country in the world offers to
| all such glorious advantages to re-

ed States. 1t Is important that the
home be located near good schools.
Good schools are generally found
where there are good homes and good
towns. The quality of citizenship of
community can generally be gagged by
the standard of its educational insti.
tutions. 1t is important to the home
builder that the town wherein he Is To-
Gated or which he may reside near,
be Z progressive place. And the bet
ter that this town be, the better will
be its educational facilities for the
youth. 1t is essential to the greatest
good Of a community that it be real
ICED by al residing within it that the
more wealthy 1t can be made, the
greater will be its advantages both as
to education and otherwise. BY sup
port to home institutions the home Is
made better in every way. Patriotic
citizens will make it their first aim to
be loyal to their own home interests
and then their state and nation. One
who is loyal to home Is generally
faithful in the performance of all the
duties that good citizenship implies.

potatoes and gravy must be hot. Pass
more gravy with the dish.
