Helpful Home Hints.

When tablecloths are beginning
to wear out in the folds it is
good plan to cut two or three inches
off one end and one side and rehem
them. This will change the places
of the folds and will add new life
to the cloth.
Grease marks can be removed
from books by sponging the soiled
leaf with benzine, placing it be-
tween two sheets of blottine paper
and placing hot iron over it.
1t is better to use a wooden
spoon than one made of metal
when stirring milk or soup, and be-
fore using baking tins they should
be creased inside thoroughly either
with butter or lard. ay
It is well for a housewife to re-
member that a pound OF sugar Is
one pint, an ounce of liquid is two
tablespoonful. and a pint of liquid
] weighs sixteen ounces. H,r e
When it is necessary to pour boil
ing water in a tumbler or glass put
in teaspoon first and there will
be no trouble of the glass break.

from which he now and then awakens
momentarily. DR.. E. S. Judd has just
come from the room. He said it will
all be over by midnight. Frank Day
and Fred B. Lynch are here, but at
Mrs. Johnson's request will not try
to see the governor in his dying NOM
ents. The governor is suffering no
pain but is simply fading into the great
beyond.
1926 p. m-"Oh, how slowly the
time drags!" Governor Johnson has
just uttered these words. He says
nothing concerning his approaching
end. His pulse is becoming so weak
that it can be counted with ease. Two
hours ago it was 140, and difficult to
count.
11:10 p. m.-The superintendent of
nurses just entered the room. AS he
entered the door, the governor said:
Il am so uncomfortable" He is now
almost pulseless.
11:20 p. m.-The governor apparA
emily is suffering at this hour, for
he groans. Miss Sullivan has just
left the room and gone to the fourth
floor to inform Frank Day of the gov
errors condition. DR.. w. J. Mayo
says he may live an hour longer.
lis a. m.-The governor is con-
scious by spells. His pulse is just
countable, at 100. There is absolute
ly no hope. He must die within next
few hours. The governor knows he
is going to die, and talks about it,
although not in any connected fashion
due to delirium. Mrs. Johnson is be-
side the bed and is endeavoring to
hold herself together.

At breakfast next morning an ON
nous silence had fallen upon all. The
head of the house had no appetite
and was evidently far from feeling
well. After painful silence the hus-
band, without meeting his wife's eye,
essayed to start conversation.

SECURES OPTIONS.
Another Main Line Cutoff Believed ,to
Be Contemplated.

New Rockford, N. D., Sept. 21.-The
Great Northern railroad is securing
options on property in Wells, Foster
and Eddy counties, and the belief is
expressed here that the company in.
tends to build another main line cut.
off running from some point on the
Casselton-Devils Lake line to Minot,
traversing a country almost parallel
to the 500 line.
The company has secured options on
eighty acres adjoining the townsite of
New Rockford, and it has also OBJ
tairmed right-of-way through a newly
plated addition. In Wells county it
has secured options on two pieces of
property that will, should the line go
through, be used for townsite pur-
poses. 1t also has one townsite option
in Foster county.
New Rockford is especially interest
ed in the proposition as it hopes to
become the division point, should the
line be put through.

average depth of the water is ten
feet. The capacity is 1900 cubic feet
of water second. After the water
leaves the west portal of the tunnel
it is conducted through IL miles Of
canal to the Uncompahgre. There is
drop of 214 feet in this distance, and
this great fall will be utilized for Gre
ating power. A series of concrete
drops has been constructed and the
immense body of water rushing over
them is capable of generating at least
10000 horse power which will be util-
lied in lighting the entire Uncompah

The cost of the tunnel and distrib.
uting canals is over $5,00O,O0O, and

President Taft met so members OF
the Japanese commercial mission to
the United States at Minneapolis and
babe them a hearty welcome to this
country.
President Taft, in the most import
ant speech he has delivered since his
election, told an audience at Winona,
Mimi, that the new tariff law is the
best revenue measure the Republicans
ever passed and denounced the insur-
gents who voted against it.
In a speech in Chicago President
Taft renewed his promises to labor
to obtain legislation against injunc-

to withstand the wear of ages. All
the fumes, culverts, division gates,
drops and other work along the lines
of the main canals are built of steel
and concrete.
There is no dam across the Black
canyon at the point where the river Is
turned into the tunnel. Instead of
this, the tunnel itself taps the river
from beneath it's granite bed. By
this plan neither floods nor slack wa
ter can prevent the tunnel taking
from the river all the water needed.

A few statistics of this tremendous
