CARE OF THE KITCHEN.
Clean Walls Are an Essential to
Sanitary Cooking.

It In not only important to know
how to cook, but it is equally impor-
tant to know where to cook. Cook
ing in dirty kitchen can never pro-
duce good food. The idea is simply
preposterous, yet kitchen walls are
left for Notwithstanding for years
without cleansing.
In the first place the kitchen wall
should have light tint that the mer-
est fleck of dirt can be seen; that the
sheerest cobweb can be brushed
away; that the tiniest water bug can
be discerned. 1t is all folly expecting
clean food in a kitchen with dirty
walls.
Never put wall coating on a
kitchen wall that is mixed with hot
water or that has glue in it, or sour
Glue walls made from horses hoofs
colored up with cheap colorings do
not indicate good housekeeping. The
glue is constantly fiecking off, fall
ing into the food and the idea of food
favored with glue made from horses
hoofs is not appetizing.
Kitchen walls to be thoroughly sat
isfactory should be alabastined the
same as every other wall in the
house. They should be coated regu-
larly in the spring and fall of each
year with light tint.
The care of the pantry requires
constant attention. The walls should
be brushed over every year, the
dishes removed from the shelves
which should be thoroughly wiped
with hot water. If there are ant
holes or any other insects in the pan
tries thick putty of the wall coat
ing can be made and all the ant holes,
even small mice holes can be filled
with it which will protect the pantry
from the incursions of disagreeable
insects and mice.

Is in a serious condition, from an ac-
cident which occurred while camping
with some other boys south of this city
yesterday. The boys had been in bath
ing, and while young Turner was In
the act Of dressing, he was struck by
the ball from revolver accidentally
discharged in the hands Of Jay Brown,

physicians, the ball was probed for and
the X-ray used, but the ball could not
be located, 1t Is thought it penetrated
back Ut the collar bone. The accident
is q severe blow to the Turner family,
from the fact that the father Of the
lad is at the point Of death. Mr.. Tur-
ner is a hardware merchant here and
about fifty years Of age. No blame is
attached to the Brown boy. The acct
dent recalls the shooting of the son Of

GIRL ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
Edith FIodine Near Denson Ate Paris
Green Mixed With Sugar.

Edith FIodine Near Denison Ate Paris
Green Mixed With Sugar.
Denison, July 24--Edith Flodine, who
is employed at the John r. Meyer
home, east Of Denison, made a deter
mined effort to- kill herself by eating
Paris Green mixed with sugar. The
overdose made her very sick and she
finally staggered out of the barn where
she had hidden after which prompt
medical attention saved her life.
Edith Flodine is an attractive APP
pearing girl Of about twenty years. She
had been respondent for some time ov-
er personal affairs and had several
times spoken of making an end of her
life. She arose at the usual hour and
went about her duties until the men
Of the household went out to milk.
She then took package Of Paris
Green from the shelf, mixed it with
sugar and taking the mixture went
out to the barn where she completely
hid herself under the hay. Being we'll
concealed she deliberately set about
eating enough poison to kill herself.
Her ignorance Of the amount required
was her ultimate salvation.
When she was missed from the Mey-
er home, an alarm was given and
twenty-five searchers hunted for some
time before she was found.
At the Meyer home and from the
neighbors it is learned that she is
girl Of excellent character, industri-
Gus, frugal and Of kindly DISPOSE
ton. She had been respondent for
some time, but she has assured her
friends that she will never attempt
to take her life again.
