Most dishes requiring deep frying are denied the dyspeptic because they are usually fried in lard, and lard does not "agree." The following recipe will be welcomed by those of poor digestion: cold water. Drain welt and dry ip a towel. Fry few at time in hot Cotto- lene Salt as you take them out, and lay them on coarse brown paper for short time
 The above recip: can be followed without the least fear of disagreeable after effects. The chips will be crisp and dry--not greasy, as when fried in lard Cottolene contains no hog fat, but Is made of purest cottonseed oil; 1t Is recommended byphysicians generally

He married Miss Sanderson three

THE MAN WHO KNOWS"

In an interesting interview Con-
gresham Weeks related his expnli-
ence on first entering congress. He
said he soon realized that n member
who was thoroughly familiar with
even one subject could maintain the
attention Of his audience better than
a congressman who could talk fair
ly well on almost any subject.
A measure came up involving the
custom of "hazing" at Annapolis.
and as he was 2 graduate he was
urged to say something on behalf
OF the bill.
You may not have as good a
chance for five years to speak on
the subject which you so thoroughly
understand said his colleague.
He asked the speaker for an OPP
portunity 10 state his Yiews in Ave
minutes.

speech" said Mr.. Weeks, the
