PATRIOTIC PARTY
Many Young People Make Merry on
 Eve of Fourth of July.

Come to our Independence sO- cial in the Sunday school room of the Methodist Episcopal church on the evening of Friday, July 3, 1908. Good time guaranteed. .-T h e Girls.
 There is nothing very unusual in the wording of the above invita- tion except the cordial signature, "The Girls" but the novel way in which it was sent out makes it no wonder that it met with such an enthusiastic response. Cannon fire crackers that looked like the real thing were distributed to a number of young people last week Each cracker bore the words. Pull the string. A little tampering with the fuse and out came the invita- ton which was novel little affair in red, white and blue.
 The patriotic idea suggested in the invitation was admirably car ried out in the evening s entertain ment. Each guest was given the end of string and requested to follow it to the other end. After tunneling under chairs, circum- navigating flower pots and doing a few circus stunts the guest would find the other end tied to little note which told him of something patriotic he was to do. such as 'Tell the origin of the United States flag" Sing T h Star Spangled Banner or America 7" "Recite the Declaration of lndepen dence" and other simple little tasks of patriotic character. So interesting was the evenings en- tertainment that it did not end un- til l2:l0 a. m. July Fourth. Dur ing the evening delightful refresh ments were served and all went away wishing that the Fourth of July came oftener.
 The Sun congratulates The Girls" upon such a novel idea and in carrying it out so beautifully.

BORAX IN THE DAIRY.
A Matter of Profitable Interest tc
the Farmer and Dairyman.

The problem of keeping sweet all the
utensils used in connection with milk
and cream selling, and butter making,
has been a serious one with the farmer.
He has come to realize fully that the
slightest faint or hint OF staleness left
in a can, tin or churn may ruin whole
output; that the faint which is left is
in the form of bacteria which grow and
multiply in milk or butter, producing
disastrous results.
The farmer has learned that hot
water won't rinse away the greasy resi-
due in dairy utensils.
He has learned that soap leaves a
residue Of it's own which is, if any
thing, worse than the milk or cream
residue, and it is little wonder that
there has been constant clamor for a
dairy cleanser and sweetener that will
meet modern requirements.
A few of the largest creamery estab-
lishments have called experts into con-
sultation on this problem and have
with this scientific aid hit upon a pro-
duct of nature which exactly fills the
bill-borax.
Scientists have long known borax as
cleanser, a sweetener and an anti
septic destroyer of bacteria and germ
growths. Destroys all that is harmful
and promotes and preserves freshness,
! sweetness and purity, relieving the
dairyman and dairy housewife Of
drudgery and of needless work and
worry.
Its cheapness and value should give
it first place in the necessities Of every
dairy.
The cows udder is kept in a clean,
healthy and smooth condition by wash
ing it with borax and water, a table
spoonful of borax to two quarts Of
water
This prevents roughness and sore
ness or cracking teats, which make
milking time dread to the cow and a
worry to the mixer.
The modern cleanser of all dairy
utensils consists of-one tablespoonful
of borax to every quart Of water need
ed Remember tablespoonful equals
four teaspoonfuls.
Be sure that you get pure borax.
To be sure, you must get 40 Mule
Team Borax."

Effects of Rural Delivery.

There is veritable network Of rural
routes out of nearly all of the towns III
this section Of the State, and seldom
does one find farmer who is not
placed in a position to take advantage
of one. With present conditions exist
ing, the man on the farm has the op-
portunity to take his daily paper as the
one III town, and gets his mail some
times earlier than many Of the resi-
dents of the cities. There are rural
mail carriers and rural mail carriers
each one has his striking characters
tic. The majority are favorites in
their particular field, and as rule
the patrons of his route would not
trade him for any other man on an
other. The carrier and the farmer
learn to know each other, and the coun-
try visitor on hearing them greet each
other would say they were both good
fellows The man that carries the
mail should have whole lot OF credit:
He is obliged to make the trip in all
kinds of weather and the best Of pro-
tectiors will not make the job an en-
ioyable one. Some time when he is not
busy, let the reader talk few min
utes to rural mail carrier and he
will find that he Is in touch with ev-
eryone on the route. = Bloomington

STOESSEL'S LIFE IN JAIL.
Confined with Nebogatoff and Two Naval

the naval commanders GrigOnef and
Lischin: The generals have each spa

two prisoners have a cell equally large

dows, with iron bars, overlooking the
\eva and the Winter palace. The furnl-
ture for each is camp bed, a large and
small table. two chairs, and q press. The
prisoners outdoor recreation consists of
gardening, under the direction of LiSchin,
who is no stranger TO that art and myS-
terry. According to the rules of the
prison fortress, the four unfortunate war
prisoners rise at s q. M. take their tea,
and then proceed to the garden abutting
upon the \eva. At noon they dine to-
What the conversation of these men,
upon whom Fortune has not smiled, but
whose bravery has never been impugned,
is. can only be imagined. AT 6 p. M.
they sup, and at 8 o'clock they take tea.
Between times they can read what they
like. newspapers, books and magazines.
1t seems that Stoessel and Nebogatoff
met for the first time in prison. They
only knew one another from photo

A twine string tied to an ordinary
heavy screw answers the same purpose
as the lost corkscrew.
Gum arabic starch is obtained by
pouring boiling water over the gum
arabic, then diluting 1t to the right con-
sistency 1t is an excellent starch for
pieces that are starched to dry and must
not be ironed.
A handy candle to carry is made by
melting the fiat end of the candle and
adjusting it in tumbler or goblet. The
glass prevents wind from blowing out
the light; then There is less danger IN
carrying it this way.
Instead Of trying to Cream" sugar
and butter for a cake with a tiresome
spoon or knife blade, try using a wire
potato masher. This chops the butter
finely and blends the two with little
trouble in a comparatively short time.
Before using new gas mantles soak
them in vinegar and hang them up to
dry. When quite dry put them on the
burners. In this way brilliant white
light Is obtained, and the burners will
last twice as long as usual, even in
drafty places.
Japanned trays should never be
touched with boiling water, for that
would cause the varnish to crack and
feel off. To clean these trays rub them
over with little olive oil and then
polish with piece of flannel, which
will absorb the superfous oil.
