cooked.
Rub the outside of a new saucepan with

Tin cooking things are so apt TO feel
greasy to the touch that the greatest care
must be taken to wash them thoroughly.
Use very hot water and a very liberal
supply of soap. Do not dry with cloth,
but drain as dry as possible after they
have been Tinsed well In hot water, and
then dry over the gas or on the stove.
Fill the frying pan or skillet in which
bacon has been broiled with hot water

WHERE WATCHES ARE WORN.

Life is mad race.
Forty-eight hours duties must be
squeezed into twenty-four.
One couldn't accomplish it without
keeping tabs on the time.
A watch is a constant need carried
where il can be instantly seen.
But the ordinary timepiece won't do at
all 20 wear 20 social occasions,
So numerous other clever devices for
taking account of time have appeared.
For instance, there's a tiny jeweled
watch set IN a lorgnette handle, for

SLATE DEPOSITS
 OF THE STATE
ffof. \. II. Purdue. of the depart. and Has Placed Copy With Publish- ers-Slatc Belt 100 Miles Long and l., Miles Wide.

Prof. A. II. Purdce of the depart- n"nt ol geology at the State Unvcr-- sity, has just placed with the publisIr- CTS here the copy of his report on the slate deposits of the State of Ar kansas. The report is made in ac- eordante with an act of the Legisla~ tllfe, passed to determine the extent and value of the deposits. Some erable stir over the possibilities of Arkansas as a slate producing state, and believing that a careful plat of the slate belt should be made and the Value of the deposits passed upon bA capable authority the Legisia- tnre authorized Professor Purdue to talk" up the work. Since that time he. with several assistants, has devoted no l.ttle attention to the matter, and his report will cover the field cxhaus- lively.
 Speaking briefly of the report Pro lessor Purdue says it will show that the slate belt of the state lies almost directly west of this city, extending east and west for a distance of about 100 miles, with an average width of about l5 miles. In some places the slate gives evidence of deposits that will be valuable for roofing purposes. while In others the deposit will bc valuable only for inside work, not for roofing.
 It's real value. says Professor Pur- due, will depend largely upon the so- lution of the method of mining or quarrylng the product. Up until the present time there are no extensive quarries, although there are a num- Der of points where the field is being worked. Arkansas Democrat

Pipkin is in the White River Conference. It was the policy of the presiding bishop at that time. Bishop E. E. Hoss, to dlffuse the contending elements as much as possible. Rev Thomas with drew from the conference and was located at his own request.
 Rev. Thomas has steadfastly main tained his identity and his good name ill the church and todays action full ly restores him to his conference con- nections.

 There is now liklihood that he will resume his residence in Little Rock, and should he do so he vii be given a warm welcome.
 The board of stewards of Asbury M. F. Church, South, has passed reso- lntions and written strong letter re- questing Rev A. C. Miller, presiding elder of the district. to exert his in- fluence to have Rev Thomas assign ed to the pastorate of that congre- sation.
 Rev. W. A.

 Much qualification is being express cd at this satisfactory adjustment of q controversy that has attracted as great secular as we'll as denomina- tional interest because of the sensa- tional features injected into it by the enemies of Rev. Thomas.

in Old ConiroYers! Settled.

This is the settlement of a contro- Tersy that has at times during the fast eight years wrought the church to a high pitch of excitement, and it is believed has finally closed a chap ter in the history of Arkansas Meth odism that has been fiaught with much bitterness.
 At a session of the conference held at Benton several years ago the cha.- acter of Rev. James Thonlas. former pastor of Winfield Memorial and one of the most popular who ever held that station, was arrested. He was at that time presiding elder of the Little Rock District.
 Charges were preferred by certain members of the conference that Rev. James Thomas was deceiying the church and his people; that he was an unfrocked Baptist preacher origl- nally from Texas, and that his name was really Otto Brock.
 Rev. Thomas and his friends, among the staunchest and truest men ever had. denied all the charges as scandalous and untrue, and the con- troyersy ran through several sessions of the conference, and even resulted in suits for islander in the civil courts.
 Among those who were most prom inent in the prosecution of the charges against Rev. Thomas, before inc conference, were Rev J. $. Hawk ins, Rev. J. E. Godbey, Rev E. M. piplzin and Rev. w. F. Thompson. At a recent conference Rev. J. s. flaw
