THE COOKBOOK.

Remember that salt raises the tenn
perature of boiling water thereby
making vegetables cook more quickly
when it is used.
1t Is mistake in greasing a griddle
to do it with too lavish n hand The
main thing Is to see that the grease
is evenly distributed.
Chopped cucumbers with tomatoes.
When highly seasoned make a good
filling for tomato shells when serving
individual dishes, one may decorate
the dish with parsley or lettuce leaves.

CONCERNING THE LIBRARY.

There is a movement on foot to ere.
ate special fund for buying juvenile
literature. The board of directors find
1t impossible to keep enough good
books on hand to supply the demand.
Books are worn out long before they
can be replaced. The idea of a popu.
lar subscription is now being agitated,
for the purpose of supplying the chill
dren Of Durango with good literature
The new furniture for the public
library has arrived. 1t is all hand
made, in oak with black finish. From
the way 1t Is constructed 1t will prob
ably last hundred years. With the
tinted walls and new furniture and At.
tings the library is delightful place
to be.
The mems reading room will be
ready to be opened this week. This
will be somewhat on the order of a
club room. where men may road,
smoke or talk. 1t is the south room In
the basement.
The north room in the basement is
the directors room. Here they hold
their meetings. and will keep their
records and filed papers.
The south room on the first floor is
a reference room entirely. 1t contains
fine collection of all kinds of refer
ence books valued at almost $4,000.
The north room on the first floor is
general reading room. Here may be
read periodicals not including news
papers which cost almost $1OO year.
The cost of the newspapers to be OBJ
tained in the reading room we are not
able to state.
The stock room contains the books
belonging to the circulating library
Then there is a private work room

Il am North Carolinian by birth
and lifelong Democrat. shall vote
for Mr.. Taft because he has In his
heart desire to bring my people of
the south back into absolute union
with the national life and to their his
the nation. and to do which would i'm
mortalize him as q statesman.
II shall vote for him because he
more nearly represents my ideals OF
government, of social order and econ

or any man before the people today
save alone Theodore Roosevelt, who is
the only Republican president ever
voted for.
"Mr. Taft has administered every
trust committed to him by the nation
with single eye to the nations good
and for the highest interests of the
people.
Every permanent interest, indus
trial. commercial or economic, has
found and will find under his admin

Hardly O day goes by that addi

look as though the Republican nomi
