A LIFE SAVER

Local hunters may gain much OF
value from the following dispatch
which carries a worthy suggestion
1t might also be we'll to wear a red
petticoat and a pair of red socks:
Williamsport, Pa. Nov. 1s.-Red
caps have come to be a regular
hunters uniform IN Pennsylvania
TO :he new custom is ere iited the
fact that not an accident has been
reported since the hunting season
opened.
Whenever a hunter ventures into
the woods without his blood red
emblem" he is met by some hunter
properly equipped with the safety
device and advised to hustle for
regulation head covering under
penalty of being mistaken for a
deer and shot. Red caps are dis
played IN all the gun stores
throughout the hunting sections.

RUTH.

She stood brenst- high amid the corn,
Ciasped by the golden light of morn,
Like the sweetheart of the sun,
who many glowing kiss had won.
On her cheek autumn flush,
Deeply ripen'd-such blush
In the midst of brown was born.
Like red peoples grown with corn.
Round her eyes her fresses fell.
Which were BLACKLIST none could tell,
But long IRshes veiFd light
That had else been all too bright.
And her hat. within shady brim,
Made her fressy forehead dim;
Thus he stood amid the stocks,
PrnisinG God with sweetest looks.
Sure, said. heav'n did not mean.
where I reap thou shouid'St but CLEAN
Lay thy sheaf adown and come,
Share my harvest and my home.

MUST WE STAND THIS FELLOWS

The editor of the Hammond Times
says that Horace Greedy was such a
teetotaller that when a barber rubbed
bay rum on his face he would purse
up his lips so that none of the liquid
would escape down his throat The
Times intimates at a Lake county
editor under the same circumstances
would open his mouth so wide that
the barber would be in danger OF
falling in.-Muncie Press.

DEMOCRACY MINORITY PARTY

There is at least one Democrat in
Illinois who has not allowed the
Democracy's recent slide into power
10 dazzle his judgment. In signed
article Hiram n. Wheeler, editor of
the Quincy Journal, has this to say:
The shout has gone up across the
country that we have won great
victory-an overwhelming victory.
And so we have won an overwhelming
victory-in the electoral college. But
what about the popular voter That's
what we must look Aft we have
any sense. 1t is the popular vote that
is truly indicative of public opinion
not the electoral college.
The fact is that our party is still
the minority party-that it is, in
fact, largely in the minority It is a
question if we polled two-fifths of the
votes polled in the country at the re
cent national election. 1t is doubt
full if Wilson polled as many vote:
last week as Bryan polled in 1896
Notwithstanding the large increas,
in our population.
In the state of Illinois, Bryan, il
1896, polled in the neighborhood o
$4,000 votes more than Wilson poll
ed in 1912-and the population o
the state has increased enormousl.
during the last sixteen years. Wilson
poled only from 80 to Sc per cent o
the total vote polled in Illinois,

TALKS ON HEALTH
BY THE FAMILY PLY SICIAN

The benefit derived by certain tuber-
culous patients from the assimilation
before meals OF small quantity OF sea
water is well known. Many. however.
adopt this idea with reluctance on ac-
count of its bitter and disagreeable
flavor, but this difficulty may be over
come by the use of oysters.
Six large oysters. fresh or previously
impregnated with sea water, contain in
their shells from IS TO 60 grammes Of
this liquid. This amount closely appro
INMATES that usually prescribed. The
clinical results thus obtained have been
most satisfactory and quite comparable
to those following the simple ingestion
of sea water. Oysters taken before the
meal in few days bring about man

shallow breathing is a habit like others
and can be overcome by persistent eff

proper breathing is to take a few long,
deep breaths several times daily. These
should be taken preferably in the open
air; but If that is not practicable. take
them any way in almost any other cir
cumstance. The object of a deep breath
is to MI the lower lobes of the lungs

Pastry, cakes and sweets generally
are wonderfully improved by being
cooked in paper bags. The concen.
trotion OF heat which ia thus gained

manner the open oxen cannot produce.
Then again the cooking takes much
less time. and | need not point out
the value OF this. In the old style
the oven door had frequently to be
opened to watch progress. The pastry
was thus exposed to draughts Of cool
air. which could but produce "doughy. "
