A Good BuckWheat Cake.

Those who have tried the following
method of making buckwheat cakes
never use the prepared flour that
comes in packages. Put four small
cupfuls of the best quality buckwheat
in a jar with narrow neck and pouf
over it a quart of cold water; add a
teaspoonful of salt and rub together
we'll. Dissolve half cake OF COM
pressed yeast in wineglass OF tepld
water and mix in well; cover the jar
and set in warm place over night.
In the morning beat in half tea
spoonful of soda dissolved in little
boiling water; add two tablespoonful
of molasses and bake the cakes on
hot griddle. Reserve a cup of the bat
ter, leaving it in the jar; pour little
cold water on it and set in cool
place. In the evening pour off the
water, add fresh buckwheat, water and
salt and stir until smooth; set where
it will keep warm and in the morning
add the soda and molasses and bake
as before. Batter for cakes can be
kept this way the whole winter, or as
long as buckwheat cakes are desired
for breakfast.

pOrtance Can we be said to have
free schools when the most important
item costs us, individually so much?
To be sure, school books do not cost
so much as they used to, but even yet
the profits on their publication are
enormous and we are depicting our
pocketbooks to line those of the stock
holders in the great school book trust
This matter should be studied over,
and perhaps we may be able to find
some available plan whereby we may
make our schools really free, or at
least diminish the cost of the books.
First, 1 do not believe that we are
in duty bound to pay tribute to any
person or corporation merely to enrich
INN or them. l believe that along
the line of school books, as well as
along many other lines, we are pay
ing out money for psuedo-services-
services which do us no good and
which we could just as well get along
without, and yet they cost us good
money and quite often a good amount
of it.
If our government is to furnish us
free schools, why should it not pub
lish the necessary books and furnish
them to us at cost, at least, so as
to allow our children the full benefit
of such schools. Can not our govern
ment purchase the copyright of good
school book, as we'll as the American
Book Company can? 1t already owns
and operates vast printing establish
ments, and can it not easily enlarge
them to the needed capacity to pub
lish the needed school books? nave
heard the argument that we would get
inferior books. That is weak argu-
ment, as our educators should be just
as intelligent in writing book to sell

Paying Too Much for School Books
Fired w. Lewis

Another question of vital interest to
the farmers of the country and also to
great majority of the people is the
question of school books. Our nation
boasts of a free school system, and
yet, before our children can avail them
selves of it's advantages, we have to
pay a heavy dividend to one of the
greatest corporations that exists. Our
government furnishes a school house
and teacher free, but the American
Book Company holds us up as we take
our children to school, and says:
Here. my friend, is where my inning
comes. Right here is where l col
lect my revenue" And before our
children can take any advantage OF
the free school house and teacher we
have to buy the requisite text books
and pay a large profit to the said
American Book Company.
Now, is this right? Is it fair? To
some who have large family of bright
boys and girls, those who are pushing
forward in the school work, the school
book question becomes of highest i'm

HOUSEHOLD
ChiIdren's White Dresses.

Young girls can always appropriate
ly wear white and there is no color
that is so becoming and certainly none
that proves so economical as pure
white, for if colored dresses are care
lessly washed they are soon faded
and their beauty gone, while an all
white dress is often improved by wash
ing. Fruit stains and mildew will often
appear on their white dresses through
carelessness, and to prevent mildew
do not put anything away damp. An
old stain is hard to efface, but a fresh
stain may be removed by rubbing with
lard and placing in the sun for several
days, being careful to bring it in
nights, as the garment should not be
allowed to get wet until the stain dis
appears The best way to remove
grass stains is to first rub with lard
and then dampen with alcohol, and the
lard is good for removing tar or wheel
grease. If any coffee or fruit stains
are found upon white goods they may
be removed by pouring boiling water
from the tea kettle through the stained
portion and if fruit stains prove OBJ.
stinate they should be rubbed with
turpentine. Some white waists and
dresses were kept fresh and new look
ing through season by first removing
the spots and then putting them in
strong pearline suds and allowing them
to remain for an hour, then they were
cleaned by rubbing between the hands
and rinsed through clear water and
then in blueing water. The starch was
made as smooth as possible by strain
ing through cheese cloth and the gar
ments were always hung in the hot
sun to dry, as the sun helps to bleach
them. If the dresses are lace trimmed
it is best to iron all the rest OF the
garment first, then dampen and press
on the wrong side, and as soon as
you have finished pressing the lace,
pull it out TO it's fullest width, and
press again, and you can make the
lace look almost like new.

P'unk-duk pagoda. That is not the marble
structure which Gen. Taiko attempted TO
take in the sixteenth century and which
still stands by the great turtle stone and the
bell down by one wing OF the deserted
palace.
About this monument and the one now
in Japan, which stood by the graves OF the
kings outside the city walls, there lie a
mystery which makes them venerable
bevond almost any other possession the
Coreans have. No man knows whence they
came nor when.
Both pagodas are Indian in conception
and the carvings on them represent the
Indian belief in the progress OF Buddha
toward Niryana. In the tilt Of the caves
and the slender lines Of the basreliefs there
is nothing OF the Chinese or Corean type.
Both monuments are as purely Hindu as
any at Darjieling.
Corea was once a worshipper OF Buddha,
but several hundred years ago the religion
was banned because. IL is said. japanese
spies disguised themselves as Buddhist
priests and spied out the weaknesses OF the
strongholds. Corea was once one of the
most warlike OF all the Eastern countries
and It held in fief many OF the richest prov
vinoes Of China, b
Whether the old pagodas were taken as
prizes OF war In some shadowy invasion
OF India far back beyond the records Of the
Orient or whether they were the gift OF an
Indian potentate 70 jealous defenders Of the
faith has never been determined. For
unnumbered hundreds Of years they have
stood there in the decayed city Of Seoul
alien to all their surroundings and monu-
ments Of the forgotten past.
Even though the rains Of centuries have
pelted them and though the partially dis
mantled pagoda by the palace is blackened
by fire that once swept around it, the
yellowed marble Of each is as delicately
chiselled as on the day when the carver laid
down his mallet. For hundreds Of years the
Coreans have clustered about these two
marble plinths and attempted to read the
story of their basreliefsr forgotten by the
nation in the days when it went into its
long sleep.

to n Of the straw ministers who hold
shadowy power under the japanese regime
and got an order from that functionary
permitting the removal Of the pagoda to
Japan. Japanese soldiers went to the park
where 1t stood and took the beautiful marble
plinth down block by block, Grated II up
and shipped il by railroad to Chemulpo.
A Japanese steamer took it 20 Japan.
There was an unexpected development
nf sentiment ca the mart Of the Corean
attending this move OF Viscount Tnnaka,
They called the removal Of the pagodn by
the unlovely name OF stealing.
What really bothered the Japanese Resi-
dent-General most was the outspoken CON-
ments OF two foreigners in Seoul who hold
strong influence through their publications
with the Emperor and his subjects. These
men are the Rev. Homer B. Hurlbut, editor
of the Korean Monthly Reuiew. and E, T.
Bethel. who publishes in English the Korea
Daily Neus, with a Corean edition.
Both Of these editors, who are English
men. have been strong in their condemna-
ton of the Japanese programme in Corea;
the editor of the daily paper particularly
has proved a thorn in the flesh Of the Japa-
nese by publishing facts which make I'M
pleasant reading beyond the confines OF
Corea.
Because Mr.. Hurlbut and Mr.. Bethel are
Englishmen and the recent alliance between
Japan and England necessitates the tender
handling OF Edwards subjects by the
Japanese the Resident-General had not
found a way to stop the pens Of the editors
until shortly after the pagoda theft had
etirrad than IN rannWnd wrath
Very recently there appeared in THE Sun
a brief cable despatch from Seoul telling
how Hurlbut and Bethel had been arrested
by the Japanese for an alleged conspiracy
to take money from the Corean treasury
to provide for the sending Of Corean dele
gates to the Hague tribunal. This in
~telligence makes it manifest that finally
the Japanese have found a pretext for
stopping the mouths Of those who protest
against the stealing OF pagodas.
A mistake has been made in the publica-
ton OF the story about the theft Of the
