Kitchen Miracles.

Kitchen Miracles.
In Aunt Amelia's kitchen there are
many wonders done,
Such miracles are wrought as never
seen beneath the sun:
A pumpkin from the garden-just q
yellow sphere that lies
Beneath her skilfu1 handling ripens
quickly into pies;
The corn grows into fritters, you must
marvel at the change;
The apples change to dumplings In
the glowing kitchen range;
She waves her hands above it, and
the milk is cottage cheese.
You merely watch her, and YOU see
such miracles as these.
She finds 1t easy, quite, to make blue
berries into rolls;
And eggs are changed to omelets
above the glowing Goals;
And sometimes when she's fixing the
materials for pies +,
She turns cider into mine-meat right
before your very eyes!
sometimes sho makes currant roll
you would not think she could
Or makes peach turn over, or does
something just as good;
But she says quite the hardest task
that ever she has found
Is, when she has her boys at tea. to
make these things go round!

HOSTILE LEGISLATION.
Cotton Belts General Manager Tell:
Where 1t Hurts.

Referring to state legislation the
management of the Cotton Belt railway
comments as follows: 1T is hoped
that the active anti-railroad agitation
of the past few years. resulting in the
impairment of the credit of trausporta-
ton interests, will in time be followed
by a reaction which will establish closer
relations and a better feeling between
the railroads and the people. The de-
mands of the public are, for safe
prompt and efficient service. To meet
these demands and to properly develop
the southwestern states, increased
rather than decreased transportation
facilities are necessary.
These results, desired by the rail-
roads and the pubic alike, can only be
obtained by reasonable increases In
freight and passenger rates. Arbitrary
rate reductions and antagonistic legts-
lation are bound to enforce rigid oper-
ating economies. curtailment in ex-
penditures for Improvements and the
consequent continued idleness of many
employees, with possible reduction in
the wages OF those retained in the ser
vice.
AN Improvement is now manifest in
the general situation. and the railroads
appear to be in a better position to
reach a satisfactory understanding
with the public Doubtless, much OF the
legislation affecting railroads hereto
fore enacted by the several states has
been due to a misconception of the
ultimate results. In dealing with the
public, this company has encouraged
the policy of hearty cooperation be-
tween the railroad and other business
interests. as necessary for their COM
mon success and prosperity.
Normal conditions and a full meas
ure of prosperity for business inter
ests generally will not be reached,
however, until the railroads. manufac-
turers and other large employers of Ia
Dor and consumers of material are en-
abled. through the restoration of con-
ddence and credit, to resume their ex-
penditures for improvements and in the
development of the natural resources
of the country"

VOICE FROM OHIO.
Norris l.. Gage on Repairing
Paved Streets.
They Are Being Ruined by Care
lessness.
HE HAS A GOOD PLAN.
All Repair Work Should Be
Done By City.
Tells of His Efforts and Obser-
vatiOns in Other Cities.

Norris L. Gage of Ashtabula. Ohio,
owner of considerable Topeka real es-
tate. and who visits here often and has
the best interests of the city at heart
all the time. has been keeping in close
touch with the State Journals articles
on the destruction of our street paving
by careless repair work. Mr.. Gage has
made a study of the paving question
here and in the cities of the east. His
opinion is worth something and it is
along the same lines followed by the
State Journal. Mr.. Cages letter on the
paving subject is as follows:
To the Editor of the State Journal
Your recent exposures in detail of the
manner in which Topeka has allowed
its pavements to be injured and in
many cases ruined by want of proper
attention to repairs after gas and wa
ter plumbers had torn them up. re-
minds me of my communication on the
same subject which the State Journal
published some two years ago. In that
article I stated that the repair problem
was the greatest financial question that
the city had TO encounter that vast
sums Of money which would soon
amount to millions OF dollars were in
volved and 1 pointed out the remedy
and the only remedy which would pre-
vent further waste. assuming that the
original pavement was fairly good and
well laid. My article attracted some
attention and soon after Mayor Green
brought the subject UP in the city
council but after some desultory re-
marks the entire subject was brushed
aside in the interest of ward politics
and other minor matters: and this

THEY WORE miss KANSAS"
Kansas Bankers Had Unique Badge at
Denver Convention.

Kansas bankers who attended mo
national convention at Denver last
week wore a broad ribbon badge on
which appeared the picture OF Miss
Kansas which has been made famous
BY the agricultural publications of
F d. Coburn For number of years
MI. Coburn has used the Miss Kansas
picture on all his large envelopes and
many other documents going out from
his office
When W. w Bowman, secretary OF
the Kansas Bankers association was
looking about for a proper emblem for
the badge to be worn by Kansas bank
ers. Mr.. Coburn suggested Miss KAN
sas to him. and Secretary Bowman
said it was just the thing and would
call attention to the products which
have brought the state to its wonder
full prosperity.
The history Of this Miss Kansas
picture is interesting. About ten
wears ago D. o. McCray, W. A
Thomson. now of Junction City. and
others organized what they called
the Kansas immigration bureau The
plan was to get the legislature to
create an immigration department
and place it under the supervision Of
F. D. Coburn as an adjunct of the
state board of agriculture, but this
failed.
The Kansas immigration bureau IS

The Stomach Does
Not Cause Dyspepsia
Neither Will 1t Cure 1t Because The
Lack OF Gastric Juices.
Prohibit Relief.

The stomach is a strong, powerful
organ. which is composed of muscles
of great strength. 1t is filled during
digestion with gastric juices which,
when the stomach. extending and
comprising the food. dissolve IL and
separate the nOurishment from the
waste matter. If, however. these
gastric juices are lacking. the stomach
is not capable of digesting with food
because it has not the tools with
which to work successfully.
The gastric juices when in a per-
feet state do away with all foul odors
fermentation and decay. reduce the
food to a disintegrated mass and the
stomach then presses it into the in
testines where another form of
digestion takes place. Then the in
testines take from this mass of food
all that is nourishing and give it to
the blood The waste matter is
thrown from the system.
If instead Of nourishment the in
testines receive impure deposits COM
bined with a poisonous and imperfect
gastric juice, it can be readily seen
that they must turn such imperfect
nourishment into the blood. The blood
then being able to give each part of
the body that which it requires, be-
Games impoverished and disease is
spread broadcast.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets corrects
such a condition at once If the gas
trio juices are lacking and imperfect
these tablets do their work just the
same. They build up the elements in
the juice which are lacking and re-
move those elements which cause

Meat. grains. fluids, vegetables and
delicacies. in fact each portion of a
large meal have been placed in a glass
vial and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
have digested them to a perfect
fluid Just as healthy stomach would
do.

In another week or so the railroads
of the country are likely again to find
themselves without much idle equip
ment According to the latest reports
OF the committee on car efficiency Of
the American Railway association there
was idle but or 10 per cent OF all the
equipment owned by the roads, and
even that proportion was diminishing
rapidly.
Improvement is shown in all sections
OF the country. but IL is particularly
emphasized in New England. where, il
things keep on improving. there will be
another car famine before the roads
have time to realize it. A shortage in
some lines of cars already has begun
to be felt there.
In the northwest there Is no surplus
of cars. The grain movement there
has drawn into service all the cars
available for the purpose. The only
equipment idle there is a few coal cars.
Everywhere there are fewer available
box cars than any other kind. and the
number of coal and gondola cars out
of use continues to fall off steadily.
In connection with these reports, It
has transpired that they have at all
times during the present period of sur
plus equipment failed to reflect the full
extent to which the country's freight
cars have been out of service. The fig
ures published have not included the
freight cars which were in the railroad
shops undergoing repairs. The COM
mittee was reluctant to include these
because had notice been taken of them
at the worst time of depression. 1t
would have shown that over 100000
cars of the whole supply of the country
were idle. and the knowledge of this
fact might have been used to depress
the price of the securities of the roads
even more than they were.
, Normally. when business is active,
about per cent of the car supplies are
in the shops undergoing repairs. This
would mean as a usual thing about
100, 900 cars. When the depression set

activity, there was more than double

preme court, in the case of the Jones'

company against B. T Brook

charge full fare for a part of a mile
in passenger traffic. Brookfield bought
a ticket at Jonesboro for Nettleton. a
distance of three miles and 1872 feet
and for this distance the company COL
lected fare to the amount of 90 cents.
He complained that this was a viola

cents for less than a mile of line. He
