Methodist Parsonage Guaranteed

Rev. P. V. d. Vedder was quite sur
prised Sunday afternoon to hear the
attending physician decide that Mrs.
Vedder, who had been sick for several
days, had clear case of scarlet fever
and that it would be necessary to put
them under quarantine. Just how or
where she contracted the disease is not
known. Mr.. Vedder filled his pulpit
in the morning and preached splen-
did sermon pertaining to the resurrec-
ton of Christ, and he was looking for
ward to the evening service by the
Sunday School with pleasant antici-
patton. AS Mr.. and Mrs. Vedder are
alone he will probably be prevented
from filling his pulpit for several weeks
But the official board of the church
has notified Presiding Elder Steven
son who will send some one here to
supply the place. Since the above was
put in type we are informed that the
preaching service will be omitted next
Sunday.

Obituary..

Clara Roselle LaFoy, the infant
daughter of Plat and Sadie LaFoy
was born March 27, 1908, and died

days.
Mr.. and Mrs. LaFoy had spent most

work Plat had returned to their home

not seriously sick until few days be-
fore it died. Loving hands did all
that could have been done for its re-
lief till death came to the little suffer
er and our Heavenly Father took it
home. A large number of relatives
and friends gathered at the house
where the funeral was held at two
o'clock p IN. Wednesday, the service
being conducted by the pastor Rev,
o. M. Yaggy. The body was laid to
rest in the Viola Cemetery.

Some funny combinations occur.
Last week we mentioned that some rela-
tives were visiting at the Presbyterian
parsonage. When it appeared in the
paper the following sentence was add
ed: "Only FIVE dollars for the round
trip whether you buy or not" Now
we are sure that local had much more
notice than all the others in the paper
last week. 1t belonged to one of Mr.,
Eeach's advertisements and we think
we'll charge him five dollars for the
extra attention it attracted.

WHAT is IT.?

Merely little map to show you some
thing of the immensely of the territory
served by the Rock Island Frisco
G. & E. l. Lines,
Just think of all those miles of steel
humming to the tune of whirling
wheels, day and night!
Some size to system like that-don't
you think
And it means great deal to the well
fare of your COMMUNICATE railroad
which carries you and your freight.
It's bond of communication between
you and your neighbors-between you
and the market for your products.
It's an enterprise worthy of fostering
is it not?
Remember, too, that the country needs
the railroads as an aid in development
and in the transaction of business, and
the railroads need you, the traveller and
the shipper-it's community interest
proposition, you know.
Let's all pull together!

CARING FOR DISH CLOTHS.
How One Young Housekeeper Solved
Kitchen Problem.

Dish rags are the great difficulty that
beset the careful housekeeper in her
efforts to keep clean and tidy kitch-
en-. They are drying on the hook and
hanging on the sink, and somehow a
towel used for pots and pans is always
damp. Then time must be taken from
the general work to wash them out
and dry them. and altogether they are
most extremely annoying.
All these things and more. too. were
discovered by careful young house
keeper. so she arranged to have a dish
in the outer kitchen filled with good
clear water and some washing soda.
and into this mixture the cloths were
dropped Immediately after using and
there they were left till evening, when
they were hung up where they might
dry over night.
or course. enough towels must be on
hand. so that the same one need not
be used more than once a day, but
at least they are always clean and the
kitchen is always in order.

PREPARATION OF GOOD SOUP.
Care In Making the Stock Is the First
Essential.

No matter how plain and simple a
dinner may be soup adds to 1t. 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 out 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 day and the stock is ready for
use. Clear soups are never considered
as wholesome as others. There are
great variety of vegetable, meat and
cream soups which are appetizing
Cream of tomato, celery and aspara-
gus. are particularly good.
A 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 boiled rice is an ad-
dition to any ordinary soup. especial
ly chicken or mutton broth. Be care
full that the soup is never greasy. II
the stock stands over night all bits of
grease can be removed. A cupful of
tomatoes fiavors n soup made of stock.
In making good soup bay leaves, cell
cry, parsley. carrots. onions, whole
cloves and other herbs or vegetables
are excellent for fiavoring. Beans
and peas make delicious soup. An ex-
cellent stock for soup is made by
cooking knuckle of veal and beef
bone in cold water with six potatoes,
five carrots. and four tiny onions on
the back of the stove for day or
longer, then strain and set away.

Old Lifting Machine That Long Ago
Proved Health Preserver.

The secret of perpetual youth. which
has permitted Uncle Joe" Cannon to
be as young ms he is at ~. has just
been rediscovered here by a former
senator from New Hampshire. says
the Washington correspondent of the
Boston Herald. Henry w. Blair. who
is no younsster himself, having been
born in 1884, and the present speaker
were fellow members of the house 30
years ago. Both at that time were in
poor health. They suffered from in
digestion and were so frail and puny-
looking that each anticipated the ne
cessity of purchasing a bouquet to
place with reverent hands upon the
grave of the other. They lived in the
same boarding house in those days
and, to prolong their lives. entered
into partnership for the purchase of a
lifting machine, which they erected in
hallway outside of their rooms and
upon which they practiced diligently
night and morning with a view to the
improvement of their physical beings.
