Advice About COOKING Hams.

A ham should never be cooked with
out having been soaked first for "a
hours in cold water. When it is ready
to be cooked, drain it, put on fresh
water, skin the ham, cover again with
boiling water and cook slowly for one
more hour. Again drain the ham and
pour over it one quart Of cider and
enough boiling water barely to cover
it. Boil slowly for another hour, re-
move from the fire and allow to cool
in the liquor. When cold, drain off
the liquor and keep it. Trim the ham
into a nice shape, cover it with crack
er crumbs highly seasoned with
spices, black pepper and a heaping
tablespoonful of brown sugar; moisten
with cider and bake slowly for two
hours, basting frequently with the
liquor in which the ham was boiled.

Waterloo.-Miss Maude Wilson, who
employed as cook at the Gedney
lotel at Independence, was SO serious
y burned that she will die.
Her terrifying screams brought a
lumber of travelling men from the of.

loor semiconscious. The rescuers
brew their coats over her and smoth-
cred the flames. The fire had burned
way her hair and the flesh from one
trm, also portions of her nose and
chin
The entire body was a mass of
,urns, and the terrible sight of the
clothing clinging in patches to the

cling men, unused to such sight, to
cave the room.
The young girl is still living, but
growing weaker, and there is no hope
or her recovery.
The origin of the fire is unknown,

At times when you don't feel just
right, when you have bad stomach,
take something right away that will
assist digestion; not something that
will stimulate for time but some
thing that will positively do the very
work that the stomach performs under
ordinary and normal conditions, some
thing that will make the food digest
To do this you must take natural
digestant like Kodol for Dyspepsia
Kodol is scientific preparation of We
getable acids with natural digestants
and contains the same juices found in
q healthy stomach. Each dose will
digest more than 5000 grains of good
food, 1t is sure to afford prompt re-.
lief; it digests what you eat and is
pleasant to take. Sold by Nick Doffing

Everything taken into stomach should
be disested fully within certain time.
When you feel that your stomach is not
in good order, that the food you have
eaten is not being digested, take good,
natural digestant that will do the work
the digestive juices are not doing. The
best remedy known today for all stomach
troubles is Kodol, which is guaranteed
to give prompt relief. 1t is natural
