WHEN YOU CLEAN THE STOVE
Some Simple Observances That Will
Tighten Labor.

The kitchen stove can be cleaned
with newspapers; but when cleaning
do it thoroughly Many tops of stoves
receive a daily polish and yet the sides
are covered with dust and grease.
Let the oven be thoroughly cleaned
with a brush kept for that purpose,
then nicely washed, ana your bread
and cake will have purer flavor.
Never leave dust or grease remains
OF former bakings on your oven doors.
A newspaper will remove all of these;
a wet cloth will complete the clean
ing.
In cleaning the cook stove, do not
forget to keep the pipe clean within
and without-an important point to
bear in mind.

How E5e Won His
Spurs and His Wife.
TorlgInail

TOrlglnall
Years ago, when indian fighting was
N vogue, party of army people, Major
Hildreth, his wife and daughter; Cap
tain Kelley, his wife and two children;
Captain Nye and Lieutenant Chapman,
started to transfer from one post to
another.
There was no transportation availa-
bic, except an army wagon drawn by
mules, Improvised seats were PIT in.
besides plenty OF provisions, ana an
ether wagon containing arms, ammuni-
ton and some quartermaster stores
that were awaiting transportation was
also got In readiness. The comman-
dant proposed to send small escort,
but the officers, who were young,
agreed that the four of them, besides
two drivers, a cook and wagon full
Of lighting material, should suffice. No
guard would have been thought Of had
not an Indian outbreak been considered
imminent.
During the trip Nye was obliged to
witness the constant devotion of Chip
man to Marcia Hildreth, which was
excruciating since Nye had long
worshiped her in secret. But when the
party had half finished the journey
something occurred that fixed the at
tentlon Of all on common danger.
Coming to an eminence on one OF the
foothills, party of 200 Indians was
seen below and from their appearance
and actions il was evident that the
expected outbreMx had occurred. They
caught sight OF the wagon and raised
a warwhoop.
Major Hildreth, the ranking officer,
possibly because he saw certain death
staring his wife and daughter in the
face, collapsed. Nye cast his eye over
the ground, looking for a place to make
some show Of defense. Below was
wooded valley. Suddenly a light came
to the soldiers eye, the light Of genius
for war. He began to give orders as if
he were commanding his own troops.
He took the wagons down into the val
ley. OF his six men he posted two on
one flank, two on the other, while with
the other two he proposed to hold the
center. Each flank was protected by
rocky facade, while the center, through
which ran creek, was comparatively
narrow. The wagons, with their con-
tents, and the women and children
were stationed behind a rock in the
rear. Nye briefly explained his plan Of
defense. Marcia Hlldreth insisted on
taking a rife At the front but Nye told
her that she could be Of more service
as his aid-de-camp. transmitting or
ders, information and ammunition.
Nye judged that the Indians having
seen the wagons, would consider them
part Of train. Army trains are al
ways furnished with a guard as the
redskins we'll knew. AS to the
strength OF this guard they were igno-
rant. His plan was TO make them
think by scattering his force that #
