The first thing to do i'm making lem

they are darkened i'm patches by
myriads of tiny insects eggs. AS the
''zest' of the lemon lies in the oil cells
of the outer skin, il should be made
absolutely clean, first by rubbing we'll
in water. using a little vegetable
brush, then by good rinsing in clear
water.
+ Allow, three lGnAens to each quart Of
water. Sugar is better added TO taste,
as the acidity of the lemons varies as
we'll as individual preference. Cut the
lemons in halves, slicing from the
center OF eaCR TWO or three lulu Ni
cles of lemon to be laid aside for
I "hoaters." Squeeze the juice from
the rest of the lemons into a bowl.
add the amount of sugar that you
/ prefer. (the usual proportion is cup
/ OF sugar to each quart of water). Now
/ with a wooden masher press and rub
| the lemons with the sugar until the
/ latter is dissolved. Next pour on the
desired amount of boiling water and
| stand away to cool. When ready to
serve strain into glasses one-third
filled with fine cracked ice or water
that has been chilled in the refrige-
rator and a spoonful of currant or
red raspberry juice. Add n thin slice
of lemon and serve with straws.
These are to be commended in drink
ing cold beverages, as while prolong-
ing the delight for the children, they
correspondingly lessen the danger of
an inner pain caused by lowering the
temperature too suddenly.

BALTIMORE, Md Special.-A re-
volt against the methods of W. J.
Bryan has broken out in the ranks
Of the men who hitherto have been
loyal TO him.
Bryan was renowned by Al
bert Chapelle, delegate from the
Tenth California Congressional Dis
trict and hitherto lifelong friend of
the Nebraskan. Mr.. Chapelle assert
ed that Bryan is driving the repUta-
BILE men of the party from his sup
port 10y his insults; is insincere in
his TRADE against Wall Street influ-
ence. and now stands ready TO grasp
the nomination for himself If Oppor-
tunity presents itself"
Mr.. Chapelle said:
Bryan has destroyed the friend
ship of all of the great men of this
country who are members of the
Democratic party. These men follow
| ed and sacrificed themselves during
| the years Of 1896, 1900 and 1908 for
his sole benefit, and he has now en-
tirely deserted them. and the reputa-
| BILE men of his party have in turn
| deserted him.
| He has insulted them upon all oc-
| casions, without reason, without JUS
! tice, and today stands practically
| alone. accusing other Democrats OF
| having sold themselves to Wall Street
| when he knows that accusation to be
a malicious falsehood.
| In 1908 Bryan was more than Will
ing to accept the support of Tam
many, and having received it, played
for the support in the campaign tina
followed. If the New York delegation
is tainted would not the same hold
true at the time Bryan received tina
support?
II have always been a friend anC
ardent supporter of the gentleman
from Nebraska, but it has come tC
the point when he is not a fit per
son to be associated with the grea
Democrats of the country and III
| should be kicked out Of the party.
| Bryan is not now supporting the
| candidacy of Governor Wilson solely
on account of his interest in his wei
! fare, but for Bryan alone. If the OPP
/ portunity should present itself at thi:
! convention for him to swing the nom
| inatiOn to himself Bryan would de
sert the New Jersey man as quiclSl!
| as he took him up. He is in tn,
game for himself alone. and in order
I 20 further his own end would no
/ hesitate to throw down his presen
followers but would even disrupt thu
/ Democratic party. He is not Dem
Ocrat and does not deserve the sup
port Of any loyal Democrat"

Il no grolCr is better than knife
for removing inc surface OF anything
that is burned.
In washing laces that have become
stained with pcrspirauOn first wash
them with cold water and soap, and
after the stains are removed put them
into warm water.
To clean n vinegar cruet put n tea
spoonful Of I've in it and then fill it
with water. Let this remain in il
few days and then rinse the cruet
out thoroughly. when the cruet will
be perfectly clean.
A good way TO bleach handker-
chiefs. when it is not convenient to
hang them out of doors, is 10 wash
them and then let them soak over
night in water in which little cream
of tartar has been dissolved.
/ Warm weather ironing has it's
problems in keeping the sadirons hot
enough without making the room too
warm. a large baking pan placed up
side down over the irons causes them
to heat quickly and to retain the heat
: over n low fire.
: To clean silver put n quantity of
sour milk in n shallow pan and place
Z the articles in the milk, letting them
remain there till they become bright.
| Afterward wash them in warm water
which contains Il few drops of am
monia, and your silver will be bright
and clean.
To prevent salt in salt bottles from
4 becoming damp and lumpy, when fill
, ing them put in ten to twelve pieces
! of rice. This will not come through
the holes in the cover Of the salt SELL
ers, but will break the Jumps of salt
! and gather the moisture; thus the
salt is always dry and fine.
When not in use scrubbing brushes
should be turned bristle downward.
Thus the water will run out Of them
and they will dry, whereas if they
were placed on their backs the water
would soak into the wood and loosen
the bristles.
When you are going to move and
have fine china, by all means have it
carefully packed. Get n barrel and a
plentiful amount of excelsior. Fill the
bottom of the barrel, stuff all dishes
full and place no two close together.
The excelsior must be packed to pre-
4 vent a piece from moving even the
fraction of an inch. If this work is
carefully done there is no danger of
having broken china or glassware.

low water OF Dorchester bay.
The bodies were driven deep into

were eXtricated with difficulty by men
in launches The water at that stage
OF the tide was only five feet deep.
The horrifying spectacle of the two
forms plunging. through the air was
witnessed by thousands of spectators
attending the Boston aero meet.
Miss Quimby and Willard were just
finishing n flight from the aviation
field at Squantum to Boston light and
return, the flight which Graham White
won two years ago in competition for a
prize OF $4,000. Apparently every
thing was going well with the engine
when, suddenly the machine careened

spectators believed the intrepid flyers
were only. adding a thrill for their

WILSON Is STRONG FOR
THE PURE FOOD LAWS

NEW YORK. Special The food
committee of the National Consumers
League made public a letter received
from Governor Woodrow Wilson in re-
Spouse to a set Of questions sent out
recently, asking him and other presi-
Dental candidates to outline their at
titude toward pure food legislation.
II do not feel that it would be prop
er for me to answer the questions, /"
says the Governors reply, because to
answer them would seem to assume
that I was to have the opportunity to
determine the method in which the
laws of the United States are to be en-
forced. I can only assure YOU that I
cannot see any excuse OF any kind for
relaxation in the enforcement of a
definite law and that my judgment
and sympathy both are absolutely with
the pure food laws"

The GIOrIOus Fourth.

When convention days are ended
With their tumult and their strife:
When the broken hearts are mended
And we seek the simple life,
We will get the fireworks ready
AS July the Fourth draws near.
We Will sOothe our nerves unsteady
With the customary cheer.
Though, perchance, we roast a finger
When we start the noise and glare
Though the powder marks may linger
Round our eyebrows and our hair
We will drown the echoes pealing
From the fierce convention fray
And invoke with reVerent feeling
Blessing on this blissfuI day!

Sleeves OF the Season.

Sleeves have been steadily getting
longer during the last two years. and
the very short ones OF three seasons
since are never seen in fashionable cir
cles. Those Of this year end midway
between elbow and wrist, and in the
very newest gowns are tight and come
quite to the wrists.
The blouses follow suit, some of
them being made with quite long,
closely fitting sleeves. others with those
that turn the elbows comfortably.
