DISH OF MEXICAN ORIGIN.
"Chili Colorow' for Those Fond of
 Highly Seasoned Viands.

A dish that cannot fail to delight the palate of those who love highly seas oned viands, and yet, strangely enough, will not induce an increase of the body's internal heat, is recom- mended by Harry Leighton, whose tai ents as an amateur cook are quite on par with his ability as an actor. This is Mexican concoction, called "Chili colorow," and those who care for such dainties will find it most delectable mixture. To make it, MT. Leighton takes quart of boiled tomatoes and one onion that has already been chop ped fine. To these he adds three ta- blespoonfuls of granulated sugar, one tablespoonful of the prepared ground Spanish pepper-a continent that may be purchased at any first-class grocery store-and little salt. The mixture is then permitted to stew rath- CT slowly for some 20 or 30 minutes, when, if it seems too dry, little water is added.-The Bohemian.

Browninq Crumbs.

The majority of cooks who attempt to prepare escallops or other dishes that are supposed to be finished with 2 top layer of Drowned crumbs usual ly spread the bread or cracker crumbs over the surface, finally dotting them with bits of butter. As the invariable result such a dish is always Drowned unevenly. The butter, spreading as it does in spots, browns nicely, but all around these spots are unbrowned spaces that give a most inartistic if not unfinished appearance to the dish. To avoid this 1t is only necessary to roll the crumbs fine and then mix them with the melted butter before spreading them over the space to, be Drowned. Those who have never prac. ticed this method cannot fail to be delighted with the improved appear ance and flavor that may be imparted so easily to any preparation of this kind.

DIRECT TO SINNERS
Farmers Union Arranges to Sell
 Cotton to English Spinners

Reports from Atlanta, Co.,, where the International Conference of Cotton Growers and Spinners was held last week, indicate that the cotton growers will reap immediate benefits from the conference. This developed in con- ference held by the executive board of the Farmers Union and H. w. Mac alister of Manchester, England, one of the chief experts on spinna ble grades of cotton, with the European delega- tion to the late conference.
 The object of the conference was to perfect, and as speedily as possible agree, upon terms whereby the growers of the union could deal direct with the European consumers. It is stated that already the union has arranged to To- cate an agent in England; that a cen- tral agency has been esta blished in Memphis, and that this office will noti- fy the European agent of all cotton ready for sale. Mir. Macalister gaur- anteed that all cotton offered would be bought. He explained, however, that the cotton offered by the union must conform with the grades sold, and that the bailing and compressing must be in accordance with the terms adopted by the conference This was agreed upon.

IMPORTANT TO OUR YOUNG
 MEN AND WOMEN

Are you satisfied with your salary? Are you satisfied with your present employment? Had it occurred to you that if you continue to plod along as you are, you will always be what you are-no bigger, no richer, no wiser, no better? Suppose you were to lose your present position? What then? Yet, you may be able to make bare living for yourself without special training while you are young and in robust health, but in old age, sickness, or when you have the increased bur- den of others helpless and dependent upon you, how about then? Nobody ever saw an advertisement for an old man or an old woman wanted in clerical position. Young man, young woman, isn't this enough to open your eyes and suggest most forcibly to you that you should at once pre- pare yourself with thorough practi- cal knowledge of bookkeeping, busi- ness training, shorthand, and type writing, that you may be success in life, and lay up a comfortable living for old age?
 The famous Byrne Simplified Short hand and Practical Bookkeeping and Business Training can be had at the Tyler Commercial College, Tyler, Tex as. in almost half the time and at half the usual cost of less modern systems taught in other schools. Take the ad- vice of the editor, and write this ex- cellent college that is doing so much for our young people of today, for catalogue, and don't delay this inn portant training.

VIOLET SHADE WELL LIKED.
Has Attained Much Popularity for
 Bedroom Furnishing.


 A charming wall paper displayed in 2 store window shows an arbor design of light purple shades upon cream ground, says the Chicago News. Pur- pie tones are so fashionable now that they are, and very rightly, used con- siderably for furnishing. They are particularly clean and pretty for a bedroom; that is, if the violet or lav- ender shades are selected. For sunny exposure violet gives a cool effect.
 Most women select blue or pink for their bedrooms, but if violet is becom- ing it Is every bit as effective, and If the solid tone is not used the dainty floral designs in papering are not suf- ficiently pronounced to conflict seri- ously with dislike for the color.
 In spare room violet is very pret- ty. One room facing north and east is furnished with old mahogany, al- though the two little beds are of brass. The mating is violet and white, with two or three woven rugs of the same coloring.
 The paper shows clusters of violets on cream-colored ground, and the colonial fireplace and deep-embrasured windows are of snowy white paint. The white lowered muslin curtains have plaited ruffies. Can any one imag- inc cozier apartment for a welcome guest?

besieged by people suffering from all manner of ailments
 The physicians of the city are amazed at the work he is doing, and have tried to shake the wonderful in- iluence he has over the people, even. going so far as to threaten prosecu- tlon, but as he does not accept any money for his services and does not give out any medicine himself, they have been powerless to interfere.
 Cooper created considerable amuse- ment at the expense of the doctors by asking them why they did not write their prescription in English so their patients would know what they were taking.
 Since the interest has become so widespread that Cooper cannot meet the people personally, he is receiving an enormous mail, and keeps large force of stenographers employed in answering it. In the meantime stories of marvellous cures continue to pour in.
 Mrs. G. Fry, living at 182 Oak street, had suffered agony for months from rheumatism. In telling about her case, she said:
 ''I have had rheumatism for over nine years. It has been getting worse every year until I have been almost cripple from it for the past eighteen months. I have been unable to write for over three years, as the knuckles of my hands were so swollen I could not close my fingers enough to write. Every joint in my body was in the same shape, swollen and intensely painful. The suffering has been too great to describe. I have seen a doc- tor every week for, ten months and have tried in every way to get we'll. ''Last week I came here and bought some of the Cooper medicines. I was told to come back in case I did not improve. I have come back anyway, just to express my thankfulness. "You see my hands. The swelling has almost gone. So has the pain. If you will lend me pencil I will show you that can write.' Mrs. Fry here took the pencil and used it readily. II told neighbor who has rheuma- tism, about it, and she said maybe it isn't the medicine: maybe it's some thing else. I told her that until I knew what the something else was should keep on taking the medicine and 1 advised her to do likewise.''
 Cooper claims to have received the formulas of the medicines he is using from an aged priest in sleepy Span ish town in Old Mexico. The Mexicans believed that holy water or some su- pernatural element entered into their composition.
 Cooper receives an enormous daily mail. Letters are coming from every rpart of the state, asking for advice.
 The philanthropist reads every letter carefully, and replies to each one, advising the remedy which is applica- ble to each individual case. | While his remafka ble cures are the chief topic of conversation, many. stories are heard on the streets and in business places of his goodness to the l poor. His gifts of food, money and 1 clothing have relieved great amount of distress, and have greatly endeared him to the people.
 He is beginning to show the great strain he has been under the past two weeks, and it is understood that he will remain here only one more week.

City is Excited Over the Remarkable Cures of Mysterious Man Whose Eccentricties
 Are Startling
Strange Stories Told Quiet Stranger Great Quantities of Food and Clothing and Cures
 Disease Without Pay

Chicago, Oct. F. Especial The people of this city are greatly excited over number of remarkable cures which have been effected by wealthy philanthropist by the name of Cooper.
 His headquarters at the Public Drug Store is besieged with crowds of men and women eager to be cured of their ills.
 Cooper is quiet gentlemanly per-, son, with the appearance of a student, rather than business man. He is apparently about thirty-one or two years of age. He first came into pub lie notice by his philanthropic work among the poor. The large fortune he possesses has made it possible for him to distribute many wagon loads of food and clothing among those in in- digent circumstances since his arrival in Chicago.
 The first that was known of Cooper's power over disease was when Mr. John Stauber, of 1907 Broadway, Cincinnati. Ohio. who was in this city on business. declared Cooper, the philanthropist, was the same person who saved his life last March, after he had been given up to die by his physicians. Mr. Stauber stated that last March the doc- ters had told him he would not live until May, as he was in a terrible con- dition: every said he had consump- tion: he had nasty cough, with fre- quent hemorrhages, dizzy spells, and was so weak that the least exertion or excitement would completely prostrate him: there were seveve pains in the stomach and back, and his kidneys were in bad condition.
 After my physicians gave me up, :" said Mr. Stauber, ''Mr. Cooper heard of my case and called to see me. He left peculiar medicine which I began taking and 1 immediately began to inn prove. My cough stopped, my stom- ach no longer distressed me, and my kidneys were in perfect condition. gained seventeen pounds in seven weeks, and today am as well as I ever was in my life.'
 A few days after this Mr. R. l.. Sid we'll, a justice of the peace living at 3:}22 Dearbon street. reported that Cooper had cured him of severe case of stomach trouble with few doses of his peculi ar medicine.
 His trouble had been of long stand- ing and he had tried many different doctors and medicines without relief From the first dose of Cooper's medi- cine he began to improve, and is to- day in apparently perfect health.
 This was followed by the still more remarkable cure of Mir. Thomas Web- ster, employed at the Omaha Packing Company, and living at 52l0 South Morgan street. Mir. Webster had suf- fered for years with pain in his stom- ach, dizziness, palpitation of the heart, backache, and all other troubles. He came to Cooper's headquarters and l displayed an enormous tapeworm, which he said had passed from his system after he had taken a few doses of the Cooper medicine. Mr. Webster said all his suffering had left him as if by magic, and he felt like new being.
 l The report of these remarkable cures flew through the city like wild fire, and the Public. Drug Store, where | Gnnnnr IT, l. ;rfc hio hoa o,,,n ,,tens.

Lime enters into the composition Of
all plants, but its value depends more
upon its tendency to hasten chemical
action in the soil rather than upon its
use as food for plants, and whether the
soil is light or heavy, sterile or fertile,
there is some change introduced by
lime when applied to the land. Its ten
dency Is to work downward, for which
reason 1t Is advantageous to apply a
small quantity each year after the first
application, beginning with twenty
bushels per acre ON light soils and
thirty bushels ON heavy land; but even
ten bushels will show some results, as
lime fits the soil for the presence Of
micro-organlsms which perform an i'm
portant function when providing plant
food, an alkaline condition Of the soil
being sometimes necessary, especially
for clover. AS carbonic acid Is largely
generated by the decomposition of veg
etable matter in the soil, the applica-
tion of lime creates many changes,
chemically, in which other mineral and
organic substances are broken up in
their combinations rendering soluble
many inert materials that could not be
employed as plant food, but which ex'
list in the soil abundantly. While lime
is not, therefore, a necessary adjunct
to the soil with other fertilizers, and
gives but little benefit to the crop It
self, yet its indirect action unlock'
stores of materials, and supplies The
crops with available fertilizers. Th'
action of lime in the soil Is nearly al
ways beneficial, and farmers who hav'
used lime seldom discard 1t. 1t give

large proportions Of vegetable matter

CHAPTER VIII.


One bright, frosty day in January,
when the icicles shone in the sun and the
blue sky was cloudless, the open carriage
of Lady Avon drew up at the rectory
gate. After the marriage of Mr.. Baum
garten Lady Avon had occasionally at
tended Little Whitton church as hereto
fore, but Lady Grace never. She had al
ways excuses ready, and her mother
who had never fathomed, or even suspect
ed the true cause of Grace's caprice as
to the living-put faith in them The
countess declined to alight, and Mr..
Baumgarten went out to the gate.
"Would it be troubling you very much,
Mr.. Baumgarter, to come to Avon House
occasionally and pass an hour with me?'
began she, as they shook hands.
Certainly not, If you wish it," he re-
piled. IF can render you any service
I shall be very happy to come"
Lady Avon lowered her voice and bent
toward him. II am not happy in my

to see him? l will have him brought

"I should like to see him, yes; but I
will come in"
He helped her from the low carriage,
the most comfortable chair by the parlor
fire. The child was brought in by Dinah
