This is the season of houseclean-

Too self-evident to mention, you
think?
Quite so. But I mentioned it only to
introduce a suggestion. As you take
your broom in hand to move upon the
foe, will you not make up your mind
that the season of housekeeping this
year, is also a season of housekeeping
and simplification. AsS4 %

COST OF LIVING

A Visit to See the
White House Pantry
Is a Pleasure You Should Not
Deny Yourself This Week

Every day scores of people come in look at
the WHITE HOUSE PANTRY, then say:
Gentlemen, I had no idea you had such nee
essary convenience for the kitchen"
We are convinced by this that the average
man and woman of Topeka do not realize what
the WHITE HOUSE PANTRY is We wish we
could say something here that would induce
every man and woman to pay us visit, let us
show you the many advantages of the WHITE
HOUSE PANTRY over the old way of prepar-
ing meals.
It does away with the eternal drudgery in the
kitchen, puts every necessity for preparing a
meal in a 36-inch space, and makes cooking a
pleasure for the housewife, as well as big saw
ing in the cost of living.
This pantry is made of sheet steel, and has
more conveniences than any other pantry ever
made. It is dust, dirt and germ proof, keeps
your supplies always fresh, and tells you how
to prepare thousands of delicious dishes you
never thought of before.
It costs you absolutely nothing to see and
learn all about the WHITE HOUSE PANTRY,
and you are under no obligations to US in any
way if you will give us the opportunity of
demonstration. We will also tell you how you
can own one free

To show how the Japanese are ad-

woman" of Japan. Her hand was
sought in marriage by a young man.
A friend. q Christian was asked to
be tho go-between. He invited the
young people TO his house and after
they had taken a look at each other
and the young man had put a few
questions TO her she proceeded to ask
him few as follows: What Is your
opinion OF a woman? OF a wife's
duty to her mother-in-law? OF di-
vorce! What part of your estate
would you leave your wife I'm the
event of your death? Explain the
Trinity? Explain the following pas
seges in the Bible?
The young man wos foored. but ad-
miring the bright woman. sent a letter
the next day to his preacher friend
asking him to arrange the marriage.
About the same time came a letter
from the young woman saying she did
not want to become the wife Of this
young man.
One Of the Japanese daily papers
publishes a letter on family worship,
written by a Japanese lady whose
husband is a Christian. She says
that the family worship in her house
lasts less than fifteen minutes. Tho
whole family assemblies at 6.45 around

and the servants often making many

the household has his morning for
choosing a hymn. After the Scripture
reading is over the master OF the
house explains the meaning Of GER
tain verses and chooses a text to be
taken as a motto for the day, and
makes a few simple remarks thereon.
Each member Of the household takes
II in turn to pray morning after morn
ing. The children's prayers are
very short, but impressive IN many
ways; and the way the servants re-
peat the same prayers day after day
is rather amusing. What ever han

Of the Morning Calm" as its name
means? The Palestine Of the
Of the East" as we love to think OF
it. is a fascinating country Even in
the winter months the sunshine is
glorious and the air is crisp and in
vigorating.
A Korean village resembles a forest
of mushrooms, as all houses are made
cf dried clay, with matched roofs. The
boys and girls wear dresses Of the
brightest colors-pink, rcd. green,
purple, and yellow A foreigner can
at first scarcely distinguish a boy
from a girl, as both wear their hair
in a plat down their backs, and the
long bright colored coats reach below
the knees.
From the beginning Of the great
revival in Korea, the Bible has been
cne great book Of the Christians. The
secret of the strength OF the Korean
church lies in the fact that the Bible
Is their daily food The Christians
read It night and day. and are among
the greatest Bible lovers I'm the world.
They take IL with them wherever they
go, women and children carrying
theiis in a cloth tied about the waist.
Large portions Of the Bible are com
mitted to memory by the old and
young. Children often memorial
several thousand verses I'm year, and
are not satisfied until they can repeat
tho whole of the New Testament The
people also put into practice what
they read
Or. James S Gale tells Of one man
who Travelled a hundred miles to see
him, who when asked the purpose of
his visit replied: II have been memor-
izing some verses Of the Bible and 7
came to recite them to YOU" He re-
cited without an error the entire Ser
mon on the Mount. DR.. Gale told
him that 10 simply memorize would
do no good; he must practice its
teachings. His face lighted up with
smile as he replied, "That is the
way ! learned IL. I tried 10 memorize
It but II would not stick, so hit upon

and then find heather neighbor and
