STRIKE Is SETTLED

OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. S.-The strike Of
conductors, trainmen and yardmen, which
began on the Grand Trunk and Central
Vermont systems on July IS. was officially
called of last night.
Under the terms of the agreement sign
ed by President Hays for the railroads
and all the union officials, the men will
receive, dating back to May /, of this
year, an advance of approximately is per
cent, and beginning January !, 1917,
rate of wages slightly below the eastern
association schedule, for which they
struck, but an advance in many instances
of over 80 per cent.
Much credit for the successful outcome
of the peace negotiations is given to w.
T. Mackenzie King, the minister OF labor,
who has persisted in his efforts TO bring
the men together despite discouraglng
setbacks.
In the case OF the Central Vermont
the same settlement applies.
President Garretson, of the conductors,

KANSAS DECIDES between
INSURGENTS AND REGULARS

Topeka, Kan, Aug. with indica-
lions of fairly heavy vote the Kansas
primaries, the elimination of hot cam
paign fought on issues of almost entire
ly national nature, opened this morn
ing. They furnish probably the first
real test of insurgent strength in the
west
Candidates will be nominated for con-
gress and for state offices. In six CT
the eight congressional districts regular
Republicans ask denomination. Six men
of the so-called progressive element Of
the Republican party oppose them.
In the other two districts Victor Muir
dock and E. H. Madison, and leaders N
that wing, have no opposition in their
own party. Their onl yopponents are
Socialists and the insurgents are sure
OF denomination, IL Is believed.
The insurgents assert that they will
defeat Scott, Miller and Calderheai,
'stand-pat'' candidates in the Second,
Fourth and Fifth districts. and that
tn ere is a chance to defeat Anthony In
the First and Campbell in the Third.
Regulars do not concede that any of
their members will be defeated although
they admit that Miller and Calderhead
are in danger.
ate B. OHare, of Kansas City, seeks tho
nominat ton for congress on the Social
istie ticket.
The contest for governor in the Repub-
lican party also has been clearly de-
fined fight between progressive and reg
ular, Gov. w. r. Stubs, seeking renom-
ination as an avowed insurgent against
Thomas wagstaff, OFF Indepdnence, who
has the backing of "stand-patters."
Outside of the contest for governor, lit
tie interest is taken in the state offices.
RAIN INTERPRETERS.
Rains heavy in the eastern part OF
the state extending through the central
and dwindling away beyond Wichita, in
terferred with early voting at the pri-
maries. Toward the middle of the fore
noon the rain ceased. A fairly heavy
vote is expected. The early vote in west

to be able to grow this crop in that To-
cality?
Alfalfa has not been grown to any ap-
preciable extent in eastern Georgia. In
some of the low alluvial soils of that
section, however, especially If they were
well underdrained, it should do very
well, If we may judge by analogy, for 1t
has been grown with some success in
various localities in the vicinity Of Nor
folk, where the soil and climatic condi-
tons are quite similar. Some of the land
in the coastal plains section contains a
good deal of lime as the result of the
admixture Of shells with 1t during the
process of it's formation. This would
make il better suited to alfalfa than land
further back from the coast, because 1t
has been shown that lime is one Of the
elements which must be contained in the
soil in large amounts or applied in an
artificial form. Alfalfa, being a deep
rooted plant, can only be expected to
thrive on land that is well drained to a
depth of several feet. 1t loves an al
luvial soil and one containing an album
dance of vegetable matter. Areas of this
type are found along the coastal plain
and can be drained artihcially at a mod
crate expense.
Land intended for alfalfa should be
cleared in the early fall and plowed thor
oughly, burying the trash as completely
as possible. Something like cowpeas or
velvet beans should be grown on IL dur
ing the summer which should be turned
under in the fall. An application of a ton
of caustic lime will not be amiss, and
500 pounds of a 10-4 fertilizer will also
prove helpful. The lime should be broad
casted over the land and narrowed in. II
should be put on two weeks before seed
ing. Phosphates and potash may be
broadcasted and worked into the soil just
previous TO sowing the alfalfa. Use at
least 20 pounds of well-cleaned American
grown seed. Scatter uniformly over the
surface and cover with a weeder. Fall
seeding is to be preferred. Top dress in
the spring with nitrate of soda at the
rate of 200 pounds per acre. You should
also inoculate the land before sowing al
falfa by using 200 pounds of earth from
a field where 1t has been successfully Gull
tivated for years before.

THE GoURIE PLoT-August 8.

For a long period August was OBJ
served as a holiday in England, for it
was on that date, in 1900, that James
vi, of Scotland, and 1, of England, then
King of Scotland only, narrowly escap-
ed death at the hands of two of his
countrymen. the early OF Gowrle and
his brother Alexander Ruthven.
on the morning of the 5th of August,
as James was starting on hunting
trip from Falkland palace, he met Alex
ander Ruthven, the youngest brother OF
the earl of Gowrie. who told him, with
a great air of mystery, that he had
discovered a man burytng pot or
money on a field, and that he thought
the affair so suspicious that he had
taken him prisoner. and begged the
king to come to Gowrie House in Perth
to see him.
James went, taking with him Mar,
Lennox and about 20 other gentlemen.
After dinner. Alexander took the king
aside, and when his attendants missed
him they were told that he had gone
back to Falkland.
The story runs that when the king
and Alexander withdrew the latter con-

they had reached small turret closet
connected with an upper room at the
end of the house, where James found

a completely armed servant OF the
earl.

James was scared. He protested that
he was a minor at the time referred
to, that he had restored the family es-
tates and that he could not imagine
what Ruthven wanted. The lad replied
that he would fetch his brother to tell
that. He enjoined the king to quietness
during his absence, but as soon as he
was gone James managed to induce the
servant to open a window looking on a

street. Then Just as the second win
dow was being raised Ruthven return
er, and, crying out, attempted to bind
the king with a garter. A struggle 1ol-
lowed, in which the servant, who art
erward swore that he had been placed
there without warning, aided the king
and James was able to shout Urea
son" before Ruthvens hand closed
upon his throat. Sir Jonn Ramsey got
upon the scene, and, releasing James
stabbed Ruthven, who was speedily de-
spatched by others of the royal follow
ing.
It appeared that shortly after the
king left the dining hall servant Oh

ed home, that the courtiers had set out
to follow him, that porter had aWaK-
ened their suspicious by saying that
the king had not gone out and that

several parties and proceeded to search

several of his retainers. met them IN
the turret room. James was tossed
for safety into a closet and the fight
followed, ending in the death of Cow
RE, while the king and his friends
knelt upon the bloody floor and thank
ed heaven for their 'deliverance.
Gowrie and his brother were both
young men or prominence popular d'
court and apparently with brilliant fu-
lures ahead of them. They had just
returned from the University of Padua
and were looked upon as every way
above committing so cruel or attempt
ing so rash an act Lne probability is
that they did not intend murder, but
rather the possession of the royal per-
son. The whole affair was very mystic
rious, the only witness being the king
himself and Henderson, the man In ar
NOR.
Some of the ministers thought II so
suspicious that they refused to return
thanks for the kings safety, as they
thought the whole affair was an inven-
ton of his own. Eight years later,
however, some letters were discovered
which seemed to prove that there had
really been a plot to seize the kings
person.

VALUE OF REST.

The inability to rest, either at night
or by means of short respites from &C
tivity during the day, is the beginning
down. and should be needed as natures
warning that all is not well, and that
the routine of life, whether of work or
pleasure, must be closely scanned and
so changed as to lessen the strain.
Hurry and excitement, with constant
overstrain, which is working on the
nerves, are subtle nerve-wasters, for they
consume double the energy required for
the mere performance of the given act it
it were done reposefully. Moods are
to blame for much of this mischief IN
iected into lives but we should master
our moods, not be mastered by them.
The amount of regular sleep required
varies with the constitution, age and hab-
it's of life, the brain worker, whose
drafts on vitality are the largest, need
ing the most. At least seven to nine
hours of sleep are needed by all who lead
active lives and would keep themselves
physically and mentally at the summit OF
their powers. Physicians agree that wo-
man commonly requires at least an
hours more sleep than man; but also
that she bears deprivation of rest better.
This is due, however, to the fact that
in crisis which demands wakefulneSs her
sympathies and emotions are commonly
involved, and the intensity of her inter
est keep her alert. Not till the excite.
ment-which in her is an exaltation OF
spirit holding her to duty, is passed will
she feel the loss of rest, but then she
should shield herself to an increased
amount of sleep, as should the brain
worker after every unusual and pro-
longed effort.

FOLDING DRESS SKIRTS.

To fold a dress skirt properly for
packing and so avoid the crease down
the middle of the front breadth, fasten
the skirtband and pin the back to the
middle of the band in front. Lay the
skirt on table or other flat surface,
right side out, with the front breadth
down. Smooth out all creases and lay
folds fiat. Then begin at the outer
edges and roll each toward the centre
back until the two rolls meet. In this
way the hang of the skirt is not injured,
there are no wrinkles and the front
breadth is smooth and fiat. If the skirt
is too long for the trunk, fold it over
near the top and place roll OF tissue
paper under the fold.

the fruit acid will not ruin them. But
do they stop to think what the silver
will do to the fruit. 1t poisons it, even
though the spoon is silver. There is a
chemical process between the fruit acid
and metal which makes the fruit unfit
for use. This is even more so where
genuine silver is not used. Lard will
turn a spoon green in a few days in hot
weather, yet often a silver spoon will
be left in the lard can.

CLEAN SPOONS.

Careful women have in some cases
had their silver egg spoons dipped in in
gold so that the stains from eggs will
not have to be fought against.
They do not realize that single ap-
plication of fine table salt on wet cloth
will take off any stain and leave the sill
yer entirely bright. After this it should
he washed in warm water and pure soap.
Many women leave silver spoons in
preserves from one meal to another, re-

USERS OF EGGS.

The uses to which eggs may be put are
many, aside from their employment in
cooking.
A mustard plaster made with the
white of an egg will not leave a blister.
The white skin that lines the shell of
an egg is a useful application for a
boil.
White of an egg beaten with loaf su-
gar and lemon relieves hoarseness-a
teaspoonful taken every hour.
An egg added to the morning cup of
coffee makes a good tonic.
A raw egg taken with the yolk un-
broken, taken in glass of wine, is
beneficial for convalescentS.
1t is said that raw egg swallowed at
once when q fshbone is caught in the
throat beyond the reach of the fingers
will dislodge the bone and carry it down.
The white of raw egg turned over a
burn or scald is most soothing and cool
ing. 1t can be applied quickly and will
prevent inflammation, besides relieving
the singing pain.
One of the best remedies in the case of
bowel trouble is a partly beaten egg taken
at one swallow. 1t is healing to the in
famed stomach and intestines, and will
relieve the feeling of Distress Four
eggs taken in this manner in twentyfour
hours will form the best kind of nour
ishment, as we'll as medicine for the
patient.
A raw egg is one of the most nu-
tritious of foods and may be taken very
easily if the yolk is not broken. A little
nutmeg grated upon the egg, a few drops
of lemon juice added, some chopped
parsley sprinkled over it, or some salt
and dash of cayenne pepper, vary the
flavor and tend to make it more pal
atable when taken as medicine.
The white of raw egg is the most
satisfactory of pastes and is better than
any prepared mucilage or paste one can
buy. Papers intended to put over tunb-
lers of jelly or jam will hold very Sc
curely and air-tight if dipped in the
white of an egg.
