The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1907-01-25

The FIVE year old son of George P.
Kirchner, who swallowed an S-penny
nail while playing at his home in this
city few weeks ago, and was taken TO
Spokane for treatment, is now hale and
hearty, the nail having passed thru
him without doing any apparent in
jury.
Mr.. Kirchner returned from Spokane
last week, where he consulted several
physicians and was informed that moth
ing could be done for the child until
the nail lodged and could be located.
Laxatives were given the boy and he
was kept as quiet as possible, his condi-
ton being closely watched by his pa
rents. In about eight days the nail,
bright and sharp, passed from the boy,
leaving him uniniured. Mr.. Kirchner
and family returned to Waterville last
week feeling greatly relieved.-Water-
vile Empire.

POTLATCH MILL NEVER STOPPED
Ran Night and Day During the Late
Cold Spell TO Keep from
Freezing UP

The big saw mill in the Palouse coun-
try ran night and day and Sundays dur
ing the recent continued spell of cold
weather. The management feared to
close the mill down for Sunday or
at night because OF the extreme cold
weather which would soon have frozen
the pipes and the mill pond. The ex-
haust steam is carried into pond at
the mill, which is called the ''hot
pond" in which the logs which are
frozen almost solid when they come
from the woods, are thrown, and in
twelve hours they are thawed out and
ready for the saw. The water is kept
at such temperature that it is too hot
for bathing and the logs are drawn
steaming hot from the pond up the
slide and into the mill.
The snow is from two and half to
three feet deep in the woods east of
Potlatch, where logging operations are
being rushed, and several hundred men
are employed. The largest cuts in the
history of northern Idaho will be made
this season.

Man is a Little Cuss

Man is little cuss and hasn't long to
stay; he flies around and makes fuss,
and then he hikes away. Some men
imagine they are great and try the
earth to crack, but each one meets the
same old fate and trots the same old
track. Great Caesars dead and turned
to clay and 50 has Cicero; great Alex
ander's gone the way the rest OF us
must go. The sages, heroes, poets, all
the men of wealth and worth, into an
open grave must fall and crumble back
TO earth. Then let's not join the mad
affray and struggle like the deuce, and
agonize our life away; for, really,
what's the use? Let's live and love
and sing the while, and work some now
and then, and give to everyone smile
that cheers the heart of men. And
whether we are crowned with flowers,
or chilled with winter SHOWS, with hap
piness let's fill the hours ere we turn
up our toes.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1907-01-25

A myriad of men are born. They la
Dor and sweat and struggle for bread;
they squabble and scold and fight; they
scramble for little mean advantages
over each other; age creeps upon them;
infirmities follow; shames and humilia-
tions bring down their prides and their
vanities; those they love are taken
from them, and the JOY of life is turned
to aching grief. The burden of pain,
care, misery, grows heavier year by
year; at length ambition is dead, pride
is dead, vanity is dead; longing for re-
lease is in their place. 1t comes at
last-the only imprisoned gift earth
ever had for them--and they vanish
from a world where they were of no
consequence; where they achieve moth
ing; where they were mistake and a
failure and foolishness. There they
left no sign that they have existed-a
world which will lament them day
and forget them forever. Then an
other myriad takes their place and
copies all they did, and vanishes the
same profitless road, and vanishes as
they vanished-to make room for an
other and another, and million other
myriads, to follow the same arid path
thru the same desert and accomplish
what the first myriad and all the myri-
ads that came after it accomplished
nothing Twain.

How to Prepare and Serve Roast Pig
With Holiday Delicacies.

To prepare pig for roasting secure a
fat one not mora than four o I'VE weeks
old. Have the butcher clean and dress It.
When it comes from the market wash
thoroughly IN cold water, using soft
cloth and paying special attention to the
throat and eye sockets. Rinse in plenty
of cold water and wipe dry.
Rub the inside with salt, pepper and
little finely sifted sage. Make a good
dressing. using generous quart of dried
bread soaked. in cold water until soft.

Roll the four legs in oiled paper and

between the teeth to keep the mouth open.
Set in a brisk oven, and as the pig be-
gins to bake haste frequently with the
drippings or a little olive oil, using n

Tea Punch.

Freshly brewed tea may be added with
good effect to almost any fruit punch,
particularly where mineral waters are
used. Here is an excellent rule: Make a
strip by cooking together cupful Of
water and two cups sugar until the strip
spins a hair. Add a cupful of freshly
brewed strong tea AS soon as cool add ii
pint of strawberry juice or strip, the
Juice of four .arge lemons and five
oranges. a can of shredded pineapple.
Let stand cuVered for an hour or two. then
strain, turn in cupful of Maraschlno
cherries Il quart mineral water and three
sliced bananas. Pour over block of ice
in the punch bowl, adding enough more
liquid.

tat apple sauce, sweet or mashed po-
tatoes craamed onions and corn fritters.
Cold slaw is the approved salad to use
with sucking pig, and cranberries,
st=WSd or in . jelly, are often add d.
though they are not at all nee 'Ssary with
the tart apple sauce. The Stufting may b.
varied by using mashed potatoes instead
of the soaked bread, and a good gravy

the pig. If your coal range is compare
lively large, l think there will be no
difficulty in roasting the pig in your own
oven. If it IS too small you can get thu
zig all ready for roasting, then send to
the nearest baker to be roasted.
1t goes without saying that holly and
mistletoe must enter into your scheme o.
Christmas decorations. a pretty idea is to
hang the chandelier of the dining room
with greens and holly. and from that
carry loosely long ropes OF ground pine
to each corner of the room, thus making
a canopy for the table A bit OF mistleto .

with miniature decorated Christmas trees
or cute little Teddy bears that may be
bought or 2h cents apiece. If candles
are to light the table, use red shades with
bit of holly gummed on each. Trim
YOUR plum pudding with holly, putting n
.sprig in the center. Just before bringing
into the room pour little brandy around
the pudding and light at the moment OF
entering. Have the Christmas punch bowl
wreathed with holly. The scarlet Christ
