Church Program Good.

On Sunday evening a very interest
ing program was presented at the
Congregational church. The church
was full, hardly 9standing room left
and more than half the people that
applied for admittance could not get
in. 1t was a program to consider the
interests of the American people in
the last election and these in
terests were presented from various
angles and all were interesting and
instructive. Mr.. Asa Forest, Jr.,
stated what he thought were worst
and best things in the Taft Admins
tration. He stated in his opinion the
failure of Taft to recommend a down
ward revision Of the Tariff was the
worst thing and his economy was the
best thing. His talk was int erestiDg.
Then followed Martin Lybarger whose
main effort was to frame a cabinet for
| Wilson and the combination he sug-
gested would be a good thing for the
opposition If Mr.. Wilson should take
Martins ad vice. Such a combination
would paralyze the democratic party
as the invisible government in the
democratic party would proceed at
once to demoralize the Wilson admin
iStration. Martin should have held a
caucus with the solid south and Tam.
many before attempting to construct
a cabinet for the democrats. The
difficulty appeared to be that Martin
has not been a democrat long enough
to fully understand che democratic
invisible government. Next came
Jacob Olson and he thought that this
was a great and glorious government
and we should all be proud Of it.
Then came G. B. Kennedy, who pre-
sented the claims Of Roosevelt. He
waded right into the question. Did
not allow the reverence for the day to
In any ann pre- vent him from stat
ing facts as he understood them. He
reviewed Roosevelt's career from the
time he vas a kid in school until that
despicable Shrank cowardly fired the
shot which Roosevelt carries in his
body. This history was interesting
and showed that Roosevelt never
failed but always made good and if
elected at this election this country
may fear for no Nation on earth,
either in the com petition of war or
peace, that he was just the man this
country needed at this time to keep
it in the way of progress and to stran-
gle the bosses. The audience seemed
pleased and to be impressed with the
conviction that Roosevelt was the
man. Judge Clifford closed the pro-
gram with a discussion Of the presi.
Dental primary and he c%onclusively
showed, that was the thing necessary
to make such steals as the Chicago
convention impossible.
All left pleased with the evenings
entertainment and that Rev. Lewis
did the proper thing in opening his
church to a christian discussions of
the things and issues which are more
potential to justice and rightness
than any other element in modern
life. 1t took courage on Rev. Lewis
part to cake this step. He knew and
felt it was right II and will be in
dorsed by all right thinking people.

How to Use Old Stockings.

Don't throw away your old black
stockings when the feet are worn out.
Cut the feet off and rip the stockings
open at the seams. Then sew them to-
gether, keeping the narrow parts to-
gether, and of them make the top of
your petticoats.
They make excellent stockinet tops
for silk ruffled underskirts that would
cost considerable if bought.
After you have sewed the stocking
legs together fit them about the hips,
sew on a waist band and trim off even
around the bottom.
Now make a corded silk ruft1e the
necessary length and attach it to the
stocking top by French seam. There
you have it-a perfectly fitting petit
coat at about half the cost Of the same
ready made.
A hint that the economical woman
will be sure to make use Of.

HOW TO BOTTLE FRUIT JUICES.
Great Care Should Be Taken When Fit
tina Corks.

In putting up fruit juices in ordinary
bottles exercise the same care in steri-
lization that you would for ordinary
canning. Have the bottles clean and
heated to boiling point in water, new,
scalded corks, etc. Usually the fruit
Juice will need heating to steaming
point, settling and filtering as for jelly.
After that put it into the clean bottles,
leaving little space to allow for the
liquids expansion on heating.
Set the filled bottles on rack in
wash boiler, fill up with water to with
in an inch of the tops and heat grad
ually to the simmering point. Then
cork and seal Immediately.
The corks should be put in hot water
for some minutes before using, since
this not only sterilizes them, but makes
them more pliable, so that a good fit
Is certain. The corks, being porous,
need to be completely covered with
paraffin or sealing wax. A cheap kind
Of the latter, called "bottling wax"
is usually little safer than paraff1n.

IVY POISONING.
How to Get Relief From This Painful
Rash

HOW to Get Ho1iot From MS fAl0ruS
Rash
Poisoning the skin by poison ivy
(Rhus toxicodendron) Is frequent In
the summer and the early autumn.
Some fortunate persons are not sus-
ceptible. but most are poisoned ii they
come into direct contact with the plant.
says the Youths Companion.
The disorder causes discomfort al
ways and sometimes suffering. 1t
shows itself within few hours with
redness, heat and irritation Of the skin,
swelling and the formation of small
vesicles. These vesicles may occur in
great numbers. Often many Of them
coalesce to form blisters, and they also
break and exude sticky yellowish
serum. 1t is this fluid that by its es-
cape spreads the disease to the ada
cent skin or to the face and other parts
of the body.
The swelling may be so considerable
as completely to close the eyes. As a
rule, the acute symptoms continue sew
eral days. at the end Of which time the
vesicles either discharge or crust over
and the swelling and redness slowly
disappear. In this stage the itching
may be intense and is likely to provoke
repeated scratching, which may in turn
bring about eczema.
The best way to treat ivy poisoning
is simple. The infamed skin should be
copiously washed with lukewarm wa
ter and a soap that does not irritate.
The parts affected should then be bath
ed with a watery solution Of perman-
ganate of potash as hot as can. be
borne. If the skin is broken per cent
solution should be used II the skin Is
not broken, however, the strength OF
| the solution may be increased up to 2
| or 3 per cent. Treatment should begin
the instant symptoms are observed.
| In mild cases one treatment Is
enough. Occasionally the poison is
more deeply seated. and the permanga-
nate must be applied for some time.
In these cases and in the extremely
rare instances of systemic infection due
to the entrance Of the poison into the
circulation physician must be called.
The patient must avoid scratching OF
course. Bandages are undesirable be-
cause they tend to spread the poison
over the surrounding skin. If any pro-
tector is needed let it be a loosely ap
piled dressing of absorbent cotton and
gauze, changed frequently and kept
moist at all times with warm water
containing little bicarbonate of soda
i Permanganate Of potash discolors
everything with which it comes in con
tact and stains the skin deep brown
color, but that is a small price to pay
for the relief it affords. The stain viii
wear off in few days or it can bt
removed by vigorous applications o.
soap and water. In the healing stage:
of the disorder soothing ointments ma.
be used.

How to Clean Lace Panels.

Very frequently lace door panels
shrink after washing, making 1t impos-
sible to use them again. To prevent
this follow these instructions: After
removing the panel from the door thor
oughly clean the glass.
Wash and starch the lace, slip In the
rods Immediately and replace the panel
on the door. Care should be observed
to pull the lace straight, tacking down
the sides If necessary to stretch the
panel Allow it to dry upon the door.
This gives far better results than to
launder the panel in the usual manner
