To Hold the Veil.

A number of clever expedients have
been devised TO hold veil snugly un.

kind of round elastic, the same color

with water colors for a colored veil
and whip it over the extreme edge OF
the veil, taking up only single
thread all around. Include any cut
edges, but afterward pare them off
neatly with a small pair of scissors.
Fasten in back with q tight knot,
The veil is slightly gathered on the
elastic, fits nicely under chin and over
hat, and stretches when 1t is raised. 1t
seems the best solution of vexing
problem Of dress.

ruffles and ribbon headings.
And little linen bootees, washable

Scallop borders are exceedingly
dainty, but'that sort of work takes un
immense amount OF time and is so
heavy in proportion 10 the fabric that
it is easily torn. The better way is
TO buy machine-scalloped handker-
chief of fine quality and embrolder it
daintily, than to devote hours of toll
to a border which may be reduced to
a ragged fringe the first time 1t is
Numbered.

Cheese Dishes.

Cheese being a highly nutritive
food, takes the place OF meat during
the hot months on many tables. IN
less carefully prepared 1t is difficult of
digestion. One reason that 1t Is hard
to digest is. It being such concen-
trated food 1t needs careful mastica-
ton, which 1t doesn't always have.
Uncooked or cooked at a low tenn
perature is best
The Italians appreciate the value of
cheese and have many delightful ways
Of preparing it. The following is one
of the many:
PoIenta.
Make a thick mush OF cornmeal,
season well with salt and pepper.
Cook over hot water for an hour. Then
for each pint Of mush stir in one cup,
full of grated cheese-the ordinary
kind. When the cheese has melted
pour into creased pans. Let stand un,
til cold. When wanted to serve, fry
in q little butter after cutting It in
slices.
Cheese and Eggs.
This is dish similar to a rarebit
but easier of digestion. Cut fine OF
crate half a pound of cheese. Put in
a sauce pan with cupful of rich
milk or thin cream, tablespoonful Of
butter. dash Of salt and pepper. Stil
over the fire until the cheese Is melt
ed. then add four well.beaten eggs
Serve with, or on. toasted crackers.
Cheese Roll.
This Is a most appetizing way o.
serving cheese. Take cake OF cream
cheese, one cupful Of grated New
York cheese, dash of red pepper ant
half cupful of finely chopped pimo
las tstuffed olives), enough swee
cream to mold In roll. Serve on ,
plate covered with a doiley.
Cheese Souffe.
Melt two tablesroonfuls OF butter
add three tablespoonfuls of flour ant
when well mixed add half cupful o
scalded milk. Then add half n tea
spoonful Of salt, dash Of cayenn,
and fourth Of cup of CRATE,
cheese. Remove from the fire, ad,
the well.beaten yolks Of three eggs
Cool the mixture and cut and fold Ii
the beaten whites Of three eggs tina
have been beaten stiff and dry. Pou
into creased baking dish and bak
20 minutes In slow oven. Serve a
once.

The Cliffiand bridge across the Des

least said George Zika, the construct
ing engineer Of the bridge that will
mean much to Ottumwans and more
to persons living in the country south

tors are removing the false work and
the painting rs well as the few minor
details of the work remaining yet to
be done, will be completed by the end
of the week The bridge represents
an outlay by the county of s23,50o and
the contract was awarded to the OF
tumwa Supply Co. The work Of build
ing the bridge commenced las July
and would have been completed soon
er but for DELAYS caused by high water
and conditions arising that hampered
the progress of the work. The length
of the steel work in the bridge is 1875
feet and the weight of the metal will
total 900 tons. Three inch oak plank
ing was used for the floor of the
bridge and q pretty and substantial
lattice railing serves q useful and or
namental purpose The width of the
bridge is sixteen feet in the clear.

BIG RANCH BARN BURNED.
Mysterious Fire Destroyed The
Barn on Paul Ranch
EIGHT HORSES ARE ALSO BURNED
Loss Is Five Thousand Dollars.
Insurance $1,000

Last Friday afternoon Frank
Paul Jr. was in'the barn on the
Paul ranch, at about 2 p. m. He
returned'to the house and in ten
minutes happening to look to-
wards the, barn saw volumes of
smoke issuing from the doors
and flames bursting out of the
building. 7 The alarm was at
once given and he rushed to the
barn only to be met with flames
from every opening. Attention
was then turned to saving the
house, which was accomplished
by hard work on the part Of
those present. The large shop
equipped with full set of tools,
forge etc we're burned with it's
contents. In the barn were
eight head of horses. harness,
saddles, blankets and the farm
wagons. Also a gasoline engine
a full ranch equipment of agri-
cultural implements, mowers,
rake, farm mill and other ma
chinery. The whole with the
hay and grain are total loss.
The most pitiable part was Ithe
death of the horses which includ-
ed valuable stallion. The barn
was large one originally built
for livery barn at Mertilla.
The origin of the fire is
mystery as it has always been
rigidly enforced rule on the
ranch that no smoking be done
either in or about the barn.
Several possible explanations
are given for the origin of the
fire. One is that sometime
match had been dropped in the
hay or about the barn some
place, which by some means
ignited.
The insurance was entirely on
the buildings and will go no long
way towards replacing them.
The other property is an entire
loss.
