Take one large chicken or two
small ones and boil the stock down to
one and a half pints. Remove all
bones and return to the kettle; add
three large tomatoes, fresh. Canned
ones will do. Also add one large
onion sliced thin, a few bits of eel

together quickly for about 10 min

MUST BE WELL COOKED.
Chief Point in Soup Declared to Be
in Preparation.

No matter how plain and simple
dinner may be soup adds to it. Poor
soup is often served because too little
attention is paid TO it. First of all
there must be good material to start
with. Cold water should always be
used where meat is cooked in order to
draw cut the juice. Salt must never
be added until the soup is done. Soup
should simmer on the back Of the
stove instead of boiling rapidly. When
the meat is well cooked, strain. add
salt and set in a cold place. Skim on
all grease from the surface the next
fay and the stock is ready for use.
Clear soups are never considered as
wholesome as others. There are a
great variety of vegetable, meat and
cream soups which are appetizing.
Cream of tomato, celery and aspar-
agus, are particularly good.
\ soup kettle where every bone or
scrap of meat left over is thrown is
considered very essential in many
households, especially where soup is
served every day. One or two table
spoonfuls of cold rice is an addition
to any ordinary soup, especially
chicken or mutton broth. Be careful
that the soup is never greasy. If the
stock stands over night all bits OF
grease can be removed. A cupful OF
tomatoes fiaVOrs a soup made OF stock.
In making good soup bay leaves, eel
cry. parsley, carrots, onions, whole
cloves and other herbs or vegetables
are excellent for fiavoring. An excel
lent stock for soup is made by cook
ing a knuckle of veal and a beef
bone in cold water with six potatoes
five carrots and four tiny onions on
the back of the stove for a day oI
longer. then strain and set away.

PROPER USE OF GASOLINE.
Sufficient Quantity for Washing Pur-
poses Is Requisite.

Too many people tell of their fail
ure in gasoline washing.
In nine cases out of ten. the reason
is that too little gasoline is used. If
you wash with water. you usually take
a good basinful or pailfuL but, when
you wash with gasoline, you are apt to
put a cupful into a generOus-sized
pail This, of course, is just enough
to stir up the dirt and to distribute it
in a gray tone all over the lace, gloves
or what not to be cleaned. Take a
generous bowlful of gasoline and wash
your gloves, laces, wells, neckwear.
ribbons and siIken accessories; then
rinse them in plenty Of clean gasoline.
After using, if you will let the gaso-
line stand for a few moments, all the
dirt will settle. and you can carefully
pour on the clean gasoline to use at
another operation. To clean gloves,
put them on the hands and scrub with

To Boil Rice.

Place the rice on the fire in cold
water and allow it to reach the boiling
point slowly. AS soon as it begins to
boil, remove it from the fire, put in a
coIander, and hold under the cold wa
ter faucet until all the grains are
swollen. Then add milk in place OF
water. season with salt and a little
piece of butter, and let boil short

To Keep Meat Hot.

II your dinner is ready before you
wish to serve it, place the meat over a
large kettle of boiling water, cover 1t

the whole. In this way the gravy will

The Union services

Through the month Of August the resi-.
dent ministers OF the city have arranged
to hold union services on Sunday evenings
alternating at the different churches.
Two meetings have already been held.
one at the Baptist church with Rev. Craig
in the pulpit, and last Sunday evening at
the M. E. church with preaching by Rev.
G. E. Brown, pastor of the Congreg rational
church at Crystal, who gave most ex-
cellent sermon. Mr.. Brown also occu-
pied the pulpit of the Congregational
church in the morning and his sermon
was well received by the audience.
These union meetings are largely at
tended and the pastors and people are
being drawn closer together in their reli-
gious and social life and can not fail of
being very helpful in many ways, and it
is hoped that many people will take adj
vantage of the opportunity of attending
On next Sunday evening the service will
be held in the Congregational church.

Governor Warner and State
Chairman DiekeTna
Advocate Law Requiring the Pub
Iicity For All Campaign Contribu-
tions.

Ian cling. Mich.-Both Governor War
ner and State Chairman Diekema
favor law in Michigan requiring pub
licity of all political contributions re-
ceived by all political parties. The ac-
tion of Presidential Nominee William
III. Taft in securing the fullest pub
licity of all campaign expenses by
placing the operation of the national
committee under the New York state
law requiring publicity of all contribu-
lions and expenditures meets with the
fullest approval of both Warner and
Diekema.
On this subject Chairman Diekema
is quoted as saying:
THE use of money for legitimate
campaign expenditures is necessary,
and no man who contributes literally
for his principles at the polls win fear
publicity. The ballot should express
the freeman's will untrameled and IN
purchased, and the purity OF the ballot
is liberty's surest safeguard. Illegiti.
mate and excessive expenditures OF
money for campaign purposes demon

TEMPERANCE TEACHING.
Schools In India to Give Special In
struction to the Children.

AS a result of the widespread inter-
est recently aroused in India In regard
to the drink evil found to be largely
on the Increase, especially among the
native population, an order has been
issued by the director of public in
struction for the United Provinces OF
Agra and Dude, directing that teach
ers and public instructors devote spe-
cial attention to the teaching of tenn
perance and effectively point out to
scholars the physical and moral evils
arising from the use of alcoholic drink
Inspectors of public instruction are
enjoined to see that the subject is
given due consideration by the pro-
fessional staff of teachers and that
the teaching is not given in a perfume
tory manner.
In taking this step, the authorities
are taking a wise method of combat
ting an evil whose growth is so des-
structive since the real hope of future
betterment lies in training the coming
drink on reasonable and scientific
principles. The experience of all
countries where this course has been
taken points to its effectiveness in pro-
not only among the children affected
by the teaching, but in the homes
from which they come.

tanned for the insane has also in
creased in leaps and bounds. The ut
ter helplessness OF the man or wo-
man without means, bereft Of the
spark of reason must surely appeal
to DR.. Bradley as a member OF the
medical profession. Would he ignore
the crowded conditions OF every asy-
lum in the state and the demands
made upon them from so pitiable a
class?
With the increase in population
comes the increase in crime. For the
safety OF society penal Institutions
must be maintained and criminals
incarcerated therein. Surely DR.. Brad
ley would not advocate the reduction
of this population, with its consequent
danger to the safety of life and prop
erty, on the ground of economy?
Taken as whole, DR.. Bradley's
pledge of economy can only be con
strued first, as a criticism. not OF Gov
ernor Warner, but of the last legls-
lature; and, second, as a plea for pop
ular support which, If not forgotten
after election, he would find himself
entirely helpless to fulfill.

ABOUT INCREASED EXPENSES.

Practically All Due to Growth Of Edu-
cationaI, Charitable and Penal In
situations.
One of the principal points in DR..
Bradley's platform upon which he
seeks the nomination for governor Is
retrenchment In the expense of admin
lstering state affairs. This is all very
well as a general proposition. A
pledge of economical administration Is
not new to candidates for public office.
A careful study OF the political his
tory of Michigan will probably reveal
that every candidate for governor
since 1897 has made a similar pledge.
What the state asks of DR.. Bradley is
greater defniteness. We want speci-
fications. 1t boots little to compare
the cost OF administration now and
twenty years ago. Not only have eX-
penses of all sorts increased in the
last generation, but the state is now
as well embarked in many lines OF
activity which were unthought of
years ago. Would DR.. Bradley aban-
don these?
Even casual study of the various
appropriations of the last legislature
demonstrates that practically all OF
the increase of appropriations went to
the various educational, charitable
and penal institutions maintained by
the state. During the last few years
there has been an increase OF over
100 per cent in attendance at the
state university, the agricultural col
lege, the mining school at Houghton
and the various normal schools. These
increases in attendance made absolute
ly necessary the increase of appropria.
