COTTON SEED FLOUR IS FINE.
Bread and Cake from the Product
Shown in Columbia.

Columbia, March Cotton seed
flour bread and cake reached Coluln-
bia in advance Of the arrival of the
box of these eatables at the Diciin-
son home in Washington. B. T.. Tay-
lcr, of this city, vice president OF the
Interstate Cotton Seed Crushers'
Association, opened in his office a box
containing some of the bread and
cake made from the cotton seed
-four. Several ladies in Columbia,
who have tasted the bread, are want
ing the recipe for the making OF It.,
and the loaves that came here were
subjected to inspection by them.
Cotton seed bread has the out
ward appearance Of bread made Of
Graham -four and "eats mighty
good The Associated Press ex-
plains that the cost of the cotton seed
-four is said to be only SO to Is per
cent that Of cereals, while it's nutri-
tive value IS declared to be from five
to seven times as great Analysis
SHOWS that cotton seed contains 37.7
per cent more protein than wheat
flour. Mr.. Taylor explained to-day
that in the bread and cake the pro-
duct Of bread IS obtained while the
protein in meats, that for which meat
IS eaten, Is had, so that this bread
and cake has the nutritive value Of
ordinary bread and meats combined.
The bread, it is explained, can be
made either from pure cotton seed
flour, In which case it is very palata-
Bile, but dense, or from 80 per cent
cotton seed flour and 20 per cent
wheat -four, in which case it becomes
lighter and resembles more the
wheaton bread.
The cake Is very tasty, and those
who tried it here to-day faxed" for
more OF 1t.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deaf

this tube IS inflamed you have a rum

when 1t Is entirely closed, deafness Is
the result, and unless the inf1amma-

Sermon Shut Out.
The most amusing episode of my
weeks labors," observes a Presby-
terian minister, taking a humorous
view of the question, lis to watch a
medium sized man trying to obtain
a glimpse of the preacher between
two ample hats that fill most of the
space which would usually be allot-
ted to at least three persons. The
man is indeed a comical sight as he
peers anXiOusly between the two
scenic creations of frills and furbe-
lows, looking almost exactly like
some imprisoned monkey with its
nose pressed against the bars of
cage. Often during my sermon
cannot avoid an inward smile.

Circuit Court Matters.

Yesterday was non-suit day in the
circuit court and four cases in all
were dismissed under this mode Of
legal procedure-two of them on
motion of the plaintiff and two on
motion of the defendant.
The first case to be dismissed Ou
the motion of the plaintiff was the
case of D. NJ. Dryden against the
firm of Korinek & Kenwell, veter-
mary surgeons of this city. The
plaintiff in his complaint alleged
that he was the owner of a stallion
by the name of Dupond Of the value
.of $4,000, and that he hired the
defendants to perform a surgical
operation upon the horse and that
through the unskillfull use of chlor-
oform, the horse died and damages
to the amount of $4,000 we're asked
for When the case came up for
trial the plaintiff evidently felt that
he had not made out case and
moved for a voluntary non-suit.
The next case to fall by the way
was that of G. W. Livesay against
d. Boyer, an action commenced for
the purpose of recovering a commits
sion from the defendant for the sale
of real property, The defense in
this case moved that the action be
dismissed on the ground that the
plaintiff had not made out case
and the motion was sustained by
the court.
Chalcraft Case Dismissed.
A non-suit was also granted in
the case of ]. M Forest against f.
L. Chalcraft, superintendent of the
Chemewa Indian School, This suit
was brought by the plaintiff for the
purpose of recovering damages
against the defendant for the
wrecking of plaintiffs buggy last
fall. A student by the name of
Moore had wrecked the buggy by
driving into it with lumber wagon,
and the plaintiff sought to hold
Chalcraft responsible on the ground
that the student was under his SUI
perYision as superintendent. The
defense held a contrary view and
moved for a non-suit which was
granted.
The last case was that of Edna
j. Brown, ct al, against George "A.

brought by the plaintiff in behalf of

A "get-off-the-grass" argument
yesterday at the horse show field, re-
suited in a sudden ruffing of the dig
nifty of the law, and a badly bruised
leg for Walter Johnson, of this city.
A young man, who persisted in stand
ing his ground within the arena
where the horses were being displayed
for judging yesterday afternoon, was
asked to move himself to the curb by
Constable Ira Johnson. The young
man proved to be stubborn, and
the officer dismounted, and, putting
him under arrest, proceeded to take
him to Jail. A struggle ensued at this
juncture, and the husky young fellow
jerked away and legged it over the
court house lawn. Constable Hamil-
ton turned his horse over to Walter
Johnson, and Immediately took a
hand in the Marathon, while John
son, mounting the beast, whipped
around the block to head the run
away off, or, to be more precise, near
ly around the block, for while at

What do you. as a minister OF

Several leading preachers of Spo-
kane have given the Inland Herald
their opinion on this subject. Min
isters, representing many different
denominations, in answer to the
question have voiced their condem
nation of present day styles in dress
in no uncertain terms.
All are pastors of fashionable con

Modern Dress Barbaric.
In giving a direct answer to that
question" replied a minister of a
Methodist Episcopal church, "I
would say that civilization in the
matter of clothes has advanced to d
state of absolute barbarism-on the
theory that it is, but a step from the
sublime to the ridiculous, women in
particular seem to have taken the
step.
IF it were not so serious a prob.
lem, women's dress would furnish
daily comedy for those with an ap-
probation for the funny side of life.
Yet l do not doubt that these same
women would shudder were they
shown the peculiar forms of hea,.-

would doubtless murmur surprise

it, and yet the American women are

with her home ideals and the duty
of a wife and mother. 1t is merely
a problem of mathematics. There

hours to spinning the family gar

compared with present day mothers,
who find only time TO seek for newer
designs in styles.
Through our newspapers and
journals we learn that mankind is
becoming emblttered; that the di-
vorce court is collecting an increased
toll with each year. 1t is little to be
wondered at. Men as a rule are pa
