The Picnic Month

This is prominently the picuic month.
The rush of the harvest is over and
there is a lull before the autumn seed
ing, and farmers take advantage of the
bright summer weather to meet in
social way. Whatever else may be
lacking on the program the picnic
dinner never disappoints. And what
contrast between the res aurant lunch at
the average summer amusement place
and the farmers picnic dinner? Honest
butter, water and milk one is not
afraid to drink chicken free from all
suspicion of cold storage; homeboled
ham free from all packing house faint;
and cake and pies mixed with real lard
genuine butter, and minus glucose and
the other adulterants with which the
dweller in town finds his pastry loaded.
In short, the farmers picnic dinner is
dream, while too often the quick lunch
of the town is nightmare. August,

Prayer Prevention of Drunkenness

As a preventive for drunkenness and
lawlessness Charles Edwards, former
constable of Huston township, Clearfeld
county, believes there is nothing like
prayer. For three years he placed his
reliance in it. and he says it stood him
in better stead than a revolver or club.
In 1904 Edward was elected constable.
Until that time his township had
suffered from the loose habits of young
men whose drunkenness and general
conduct were the scandal of that section
his first act after taking the oath Of
office was to kueel and pray During
his inoumbency he arrested only one
person for drunk HIS successor.
w. L. Joyce, has been in office only
two months and there have been three
drunken riots already. The neighbors
are suspicious that he is rot a praying
man. Philadelphia Record.

one that can be worn when embroid-
ering or presiding over chatting dish,
is made of white linen having a dainti-
ly worked scalloped pattern all around
the edge. The apron part is rounded
at the bottom corners and is narrowed
at the waist, having a few tiny plaits
where it joins the belt. On the under
side of the apron, starting at the belt,
is sewn a narrow strip Of linen, fol-
lowing the outline of the apron and
continuing on up the other side Of the
belt. In the center at the bottom two
buttonholes are worked and then rib
bon is run in this casing. the upper
ends being well fastened at the waist,
while the other ends come through
the buttonho,es to the outside, where
they are tied in bow.
When the apron is worn plain with
out the pocket effect the bow remains
in this position. but when the use Of
the pocket is desired the knot is lifted
up to the waist line, thus gathering
the apron SO that it forms a pocket,
and the bow is then hooked to an in

were several other hindrances to

Mr.. Primer said that all wall papers
were alike to him, and INDUCED in
dreary speculations as to where the
money was to come from. Mrs. Pin
ner, who knew that they were saving
fast owing to his enforced seclusicn,
smiled at his misgivings.
He papered the room that day after
a few choice observations on the price
of wall paper, and expressed his Opin-

men would be rendered an impos-
sibil:ty. To the compliments of his
workmanship bestowed by the gratified
Mrs. Primer he turned a deaf ear.

him that IL he lived a hundred years

chance of bonneting that red-whis-
