In order to prevent milk from burn

Fill burnt saucepan with cold wa

Drowned Potato Soup.

Pare and cut into thick slices ten
large potatoes and leave them in cold
water for an hour. Dry them between
two towels and brown in butter, cot
tolene or in oil. They should be nice
ly Drowned, but not crisped. Fry with
them a sliced onion. The frying should
be done in a deep saucepan, not in a
frying pan. Pour upon the Drowned
potatoes the onion and the fat in
which they were cooked two quarts of
boiling water, cover the pot and cook
until the potatoes are boiled soft.
Add a tablespoonful of Drowned -four
rolled in butter. Rub through a
colander, return all to the kettle, sea-
son with pepper and salt and a table
spoonful of minced parsley.
Have ready in another vessel cup
full of scalding milk, add a pinch of
soda and a minute later, two we'll
beaten eggs. Pour the potato broth
into tureen or bowl, stir in the milk
and eggs and serve.
A most palatable puree. Some cooks
omit the Drowned flour, but it gives a
richer color to the soup and prevents
wateriness.

Drawinq-Room Cushions.

Cushions meant for drawing-room
use are made of handsome dull fin
ished silk, velvet or satin, and covered
with a network of gold braid put on
in diamonds. In each diamond there
is basket filled with flowers, a bou-
quet, a bunch of fruit or simpler dec
Grafton done in ribbon work. The de-
signs are sometimes put on alternate
ly, a stiff bouquet of vari-colored flow
ers alternating with basket filled
with similar blossoms. The bouquets
are usually tied with gold cord which
extends to one of the diamond cor
ners. The cushions are finished with
a ribbon work or small ball fringe and
sometimes also with a ruffle of gold
lace.

Admired statesman,s Stature.

A German journalist visiting in
Washington, himself man of stal.
wart proportions, was rather inclined
to look with something like contempt
on the many understood statesmen he
saw in the national legislature. But
when Secretary Taft bore down upon
him he gasped in wonder. They were
introduced and after a short chat the
secretary departed. Just as he disap-
peared from the Germans admiring
gaze the towering form of Congress
man Sulloway hove into view. The
German looked at the New Hampshire
man long and earnestly. He is big
ger than any man in his imperial ma
testy's Uhlan guards" said the for
eigner in tone of chagrin, land

MORTALITY REPORT
CONSUMPTION AND PNEUMONIA
HEAD DEATH LIST.
Statistics Show That the Greatest
Number of Deaths From Lung
Trouble Occur in Winter.

The Bureau of Census has published
reporc presenting mortality statistics
for the United States for the five cal
endar years 1900 to 1904
AS shown in the table, tuberculosis
of the lungs and pneumonia were by
far the leading causes of death. The
greatest number of deaths from lung
trouble occur during the winter
months. Colds are so prolific of lung
trouble that they should not be neg
lected. Persons with weak lungs
should be especially careful.
A noted authority on lung trouble
advises that as soon as a cold is con-
tracted the following simple treatment
should be given. The ingredients can
be purchased from any prescription
druggist at small cost and easily pre-
pared in your own home. 1t is said to
be so effective that it will break up
cold in twenty-four hours and cure any
cough that is curable.
Take one-half ounce Virgin Oil of
Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glycerine
and eight ounces of good Whisky
Shake well and take in teaspoonful
doses every four hours.
Be sure that the Virgin Oil of Pine
(Pure) is in the original half-ounce
vials, which are put up expressly for
druggists to dispense. Each vial is Sc
curely sealed in a round wooden case,
with engraved wrapper with the name

limitations of Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure)
which are put out under various
names. such as Concentrated Oil of

these as substitute for the Pure Vir-
gin Oil of Pine. as they will invariably
produce nausea and never effect the

Most men," said the man OF expert

to have wife who takes things as
coolly as Dave Potters wife takes
them: but others, more discriminate

FOR THE HOMEMADE RUG.
Economical and Durable Floor Cover
ing Easily Made.

For a rug collect about 25 pounds
of flannel rags and dye them the de-
sired shades, tear into strips about
an inch wide. These must be neatly
sewed together, overlapping about
half an inch so that the joining is
strong.
Now procure length of clothesline
rope and commence to crochet the
flannel strips over the rope
This is begun in the center, like any
crochet wheel for a chair back.
A large wooden crochet hook may
be obtained from a needlework shop.
The stitch of double crochet is used
over the rope with the crocheted fan.
mel
AS you go along the crochet is In
serted into the previous row, so that
the circle grows with every pull of
the needle.
In using two colors the paler shade
should be used until the circle is
about a foot across. Then use the
darker shade until you have gone
five times around the ring.
Return again to the paler color, re-
peating the alternate colors until the
flannel is all used up, or the rug
is the desired size, leaving the darker
shade at the edge of the rug.
These are very economical to make.
and are very quickly done. and are
among the most durable of any of the
homemade rugs, as the rope makes
such a hard. strong surface before IL
is covered with the flannel.

CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by Cutieura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent ply
sician for an obstinate case of &C.
zema, l resorted to the Cuticura Rem
edies, and was so well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford
ed that we discarded the physicians S
prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint.
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced With the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble.
in July of this year a little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were
a mass of torturing sores. We use
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cuticura
Soap, and amounting them with the
Cuticura Ointment, and then gave
him the Cuticura Resolvent. In
about three weeks his hands AM
arms healed up. So we have lots OF
cause for feeling grateful for the Gu
ticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby, living as we dc
