Bamboo Cooking Utensils.

The Dyaks Of Borneo boil their food
in bamboo cut into lengths Of about
two or three feet. These are placed
over the fire in such a position that
the joint of the bamboo does not come
in contact with the fire, but rests upon
the ground beyond. The fire is placed
under the green and harder part of the
cane, which, by it's silicious coating,
resists the action of the fame until
the provisions are sufficiently pre-
pared. A bundle of leaves placed in
the mouth of the bamboo serves the
purpose of the lid of an ordinary cook
ing vessel.

Short Course Prizes for Stevens
County.

The scholarships mentioned as
prizes in the industrial contests, are
the first premiums in the educational
department of the Stevens county
fair. The Morris Improvement union
has guaranteed the amount necessary
to furnish these scholarships. and in
order that all may have an opportun-
ity to assist, it has been decided to
raise the amount by popular subscrip-
ton, each donor to be limited to the
sum of one dollar. About one hun
dred dollars will be needed for this
purpose. AS it is a matter in which
the farmers of the county are especi~
ally interested. this plan is followed
in order to give all farmers who wish
to do so a opportunity to assist in
arousing the interest of the young
people to excel in matters pertaining
to farm life, by donating share of
the fund needed. Contributions will be
received until the first of June, and
may be either handed to or mailed to
Paul L. Spooner. Chas. A. Lee, or J.
C. Morrison, the committee, and all
donations will be acknowledged thru
the columns of the newspapers.
The following description of the
Short course and the Industrial con-
tests, is taken from the Stevens coun-
ty premium list:

GIRLS NOT REALLY
CRUEL TO MOTHER
Ill-use of Parent BY Daugh.
tiers Generally Is Not
Intentional.
BY DOROTHY DIX.
CONTINUED from yesterday

Continued from yesterday
f course, girls are not inten-
tionally cruel to mother. They
don't really mean to Ill-use
her They are Just so monu-
mentally selfish and egotistical that
they have never thought of anything
but their own pleasures, or anybody
but themselves.
They really have an idea that mother
works because she likes It. It's sort of
an eccentricity OF hers-a fad, a crank
to get up before anybody else in the
house in order to work, and to be still
working after everybody else goes to
bed. She is a kind OF perpetual motion
machine that never stops, and at which
they gibe.
They have always seen mother at
work. They have always seen her take
the worst of everything; and eat the
scraps at the table: and wear the made
over clothes; and stay at home to clean
up after the family had cluttered up
everything, getting ready to go of on
the excursion.
They have always seen mother with
that tired look on her face and that
weary droop to her shoulders: and they
uOl sup " llldl wash
always like that; that service, for them,
has etched those lines in the old face,
and that the old shoulders are breaking
under the load they have laid upon
them.
Nor do they realize that they could
work the miracle OF the resu ection of
mothers lost youth, If. only. ey would
show mother some consideration: IL.
only, they would march mother out of
the kitchen and into the parlor. and do
for her what she has done for them so
long.
But there comes a time when they
know. Oh, yes, there comes day when
they stand above a coffin in which lies
faded little old woman, with work
knotted hands folded across her tired
breast-at rest for the first time since
her children were born.
Be sure that there are no bitterer
tears of repentance than those a daugh-
ter sheds in such an hour, when she
looks back and knows that It was her
selfishness and her laziness that helped
drive the nails in mothers coffin, and
made her glad to lie within II.
Save yourselves that agony of re-
morse girls. by helping mother while
you have still got her with you.

" = RINKLES come to the Ameri-
ANI can woman at a much earlier
w age than they come to her
European sister
And the pitiable thing about IT is that
they are not wrinkles of age.
The unlovely lines that come to the
American woman's face before age has
had time to make any material inroad
upon her beauty are one of the curses
of the American habit of hurry
was watching a group of shoppers
In an F street shop a few afternoons
ago. There was not a relaxed muscle
in any single face in the group. The
mouths were drawn in straight, unlovely
lines. the corner muscles were pulled
into wrinkles, and the muscles around
the eyes were contracted, causing deep
vertical lines between the eyes. Across
the foreheads ran corrugated lines, the
result of tensely elevated brows.
And l should not judge that there
was a woman In the group whose years
numbered more than thirty-five!
The face OF the Parisienne woman
preserves none of this tenseness, no
matter where she goes nor what she
does, as a consequence of which she
does not lose her grip on youth and
beauty until she Is quite an old "ohldh'
COMPLETE RELAXATION OF THE
FACIAL MUSCLES is THE FIRST
LESSON TO LEARN IN THE AVOID
ANCE OF WRINKLES.
We have had one talk on nervous
tension and how far ii goes toward the
elimination of youth and beauty, but We
cannot talk too much about 1t; We can
not impress the necessity to learn re-
Taxation too forcfbly IL we mean to
keep our grip on magnetic life and
womanly charm.
Another important lesson to be learned
in the care of the face is the cultiva-
tton of a kindly and cheerful spirit.
The woman who must confess wTin-
kles can invest money no more wisely
than in the payment for a sufficient
number of massage treatments to en-
able her to learn to do the work for
herself.
Outside OF temporarily refreshing the
face by stimulation of the circulation,
massage will not remove the wrinkles
of the woman who persistently con-
tinues I'm the habits of thought or emo
tion which causes them.

Discordia.

Student.-Discordia was a malevolent
deity. She was the daughter of Nox,
and sister of Nemesis, the Parcea and
Mars. Jupiter drove her from heaven
for sowing dissensioh among the gods.
When the nuptials of PoIeus and Thetis
were celebrated, she threw a golden ap-
pie into the assembly inscribed, Let
the fairest take me-" This apple was the
cause of the ruin of Troy. and of infin-
lite misfortunes to the Greeks.
