The Proper Use of Water.

Editor Social Corner: The use of
water is a simple thing, and yet it is
doubtful if one woman in a dozen
realizes the disadvantage of using old
boiled water in making tea and cof-
fee, or for other purposes instead of
fresh water boiled. It takes longer to
heat up water to the boiling point that
has been boiled than water from the
faucet, and when it has been heated
it lacks quality and is at the bottom
of most poor tea and coffee brews.
Those who have practiced drinking
hot water before breakfast and just
before retiring as a means of keeping
the stomach and bowels right, know
the value of fresh water heaNed. and
come to make a distinction between
hot water and water that has been
scorched. This is a knowledge of wa
ter that the majority of water users
seldom attain to- The water that
and has water from the faucet added
ton and is at the bottom of many
kitchen failures, for it lacks life. Tea
or coffee made from fresh water just
boiled is SO superior to that made
from old boiled water that the contrast
in the flavor is most striking. Any
old thing will do, is too often the
rule of a kitchen, and this is the kitch-
en- where things are not done well
and about which there is most COM
plant. knowledge is power in the
kitchen as we'll as elsewhere, and wa
ter that is water should be recognized
there for its merits as well as other
things in constant use.

Salt for Use of the Eyes.

Editor Social Corner: The use of
salt water on the eyes is simple and
safe. 1t is apparent that brine is not
called for. I think a tablespoon OF
salt to a, pint of warm water is suf-
ficient. The water should not be made
SO salt it cannot be drunk. ] use ii
cool and in winter sometimes use ii
tepfd. If the eyes are highly inflamed
it might be well to battle them with
hot water-as hot as can comfortably
be borne, and follow with a cool salt
water bath. Salt strengthens the eyes
and 1t is beneficial when the eyes are
watery or bury. 1t does a well eye

The rapidity of development in this
age is such as to cause many to lose
sight of the fact that some Of our
chief industries are of comparatively
modern origin. Cotton spinning has
come to be one of the foremost of
manufactures in this and other coun-
tries, says the Milwaukee Evening
Wisconsin. But in the present form
1t has been in existence less than a
hundred years, the first cotton-spin-
ming mill in the. United States having
been started in 1911 at Fall River,
Mass. That city is preparing to OBJ
serve the centenary of the business,
and next year will have an imposing
celebration 1t may be of interest to
know that when cotton manufacturing
was started there Fall River was
known as Troy, a name which was re-
tanned until 1884. Cotton goods of
various kinds are made in Troy, N.
Y, and vicinity, and the anniversary
of the origin of cotton spinning will
enlist attention.

WILLIAM {. LORIMER.
United States Senator from Illinois

matter had been submitted to the full
committee.
of lawyers and it is expected they will
Judge the evidence from a technical
point of view much the same as
court would do. The report was cur
rent about the senate that an informal
canvass of the committee had been
taken and that not one member would
vote to sustain the charges.
The charge that Senator Lorimer
had purchased his seat in the United
States senate was first made when a
confession of Charles A. White,
member of the Illinois legislature, was
published in Chicago newspaper
April 30, 1910. The names of State
Representatives Lee O'Neil Browne,
H. J. c. Beckemeyer, Michael Link and
Robert e. Wilson were mentioned as
having been involved in the purchase
of the senatorial toga.
White said he had been paid $1,000
for his Lorimer vote by Browne, the
minority leader at Springfield. Sena-
tor Lorimer had been elected by
combination of Democrats and Repub.
licans after the legislature had dead
locked for months in the vain effort
to elect a senator.
Beckemeyer and Link later con-
fessed that they also had received
money for their Lorimer votes. At
the same time, States Attorney Burke
of Sangamon county took up an investi.
cation of the charges and forced from
State Senator d. w. Holstlaw a state
ment that he had been paid $4,000 for
his Lorimer vote by State Senator John
Frederick, Chicago saloonkeeper and
Democratic friend of Lorimer. Indict-
ments were returned against the men
involved in both Cook and Sangamon
counties.
Lee O'Neil Browne was tried twice
in the criminal court of cook county.
The first time the jury disagreed, on
June %, after having been out longer
than any other jury in the history of
the county. The second trial of
Browne ended Sept. s, when second
jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
Brown has been reelected to the
Illinois legislature from La Sale
county.

Washington, ID. G. - The sub-com.
mittee of the United States senate,
which has been investigating the
charges of bribery in connection with
the election of Senator William Lori
mer of Illinois, decided unanimously
that the testimony does not prove any
of the charges made.
The committee took up the evidence
in it's entirety in an executive session.
1t canvassed the testimony, weighed
the evidence and the arguments and
took into consideration all of the facts
that have been advanced in connection
with the charges concerning Lorimers
election and decided there had been
shown no foundation for the charges
that bribery had entered into the case
in connection with Mr.. Lorimer's cleo
ton.
The subcommittee consists of Sena-
tors Burrows, Michigan; Buckley,
Connecticut; Gamble, South Dakota;
Hepburn, Idaho, Republicans; Frazier,
Tennessee; Paynter, Kentucky, and

CHARL TON GOES BACK TO ITALY
U. s. sURRENDERS ALLEGED
WIFE MURDERER.
State Department Decides That Treaty
Must Be Interpreted Literally
Until 1t Is Abrogated.

Washington.-The state department
Friday decided that Italy is entitled
to the extradition of Porter Charlton,
which was demanded on charge of
murder and who confessed to the
murder Of his wife near Lake Como,
Italy.
1t is held by the department that
the treaty under which Italy made the
demand must be interpreted literally
until it shall have been abrogated.
The department holds that treaties
are not reciprocal, which means that
a treaty may be binding, even though
one nation has the advantage over
the other in some of it's details. Such
a treaty is undoubtedly the one now
in force between Italy and the United
States, but the department frankly
says that it will abide by the conven-
ton as a principle of national faith.
The decision of the department does
not mean that Charlton will imme-
diately have to go to Italy and stand
trial. The matter may be carried to
the courts where the prisoners sanity
will be determined. In such event
Charlton would be held here for al
most two years.

the second floor at the head of wide
staircase were Mrs. Eddy's family, her
other relatives and members Of her
household. The furniture had been
removed from the room where the COT

the soft light of day Illuminated the
surroundings.
Judge Smith began the services by
the reading of lesson sermon cor

SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR

"My mother used to have very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema, and for it had two
different doctors. Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
in spite Of what they both did. One
day her niece came in and they were
speaking of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did it no good.
She says, Aunt, why don't you try
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment?' Mother did and they helped
her. In six months time the itching,
burning and scalding of her head was
over and her hair began growing. To-
day she feels much in debt to Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four.
"My own case was an eczema in my
feet. AS soon as the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn and
then they would crack open and bleed.
