In pursuance of our usual policy to
encourage local writer's, the Republican
takes pleasure this week in giving its
readers the opening chapters of a story
written by H. A. Compton, of Buchanan
county. Mr.. Compton has been an oc-
casional contributor to our columns.
and has given much promise of succeed
ing in his chosen field.
The present story will, we think, be
found of much interest, aside from the
fact of its local color and the fact that
the scenes are laid in country familiar
to all our readers, and the characters.
their homes, their feuds. their every
day life, will be recognized as the same
as those of whom we have heard in
days past on the Tug.

Making Summer Cooking Easy

The cookstove is one of the principal
causes of the housewives i'll health dur
ing the summer. The farmer has labor
ers to be fed and it is practically impos-
slble to get good cooks in the couhtry.
so the wife spends long hours in the
kitchen over the hot stove preparing
sufficient substantial food for keen appe-
titles. When meals are on the table she
IS often too worn out to eat anything
and every thread of her clothing is damn
from perspration. This is indeed true
OF hundreds of women in our country.
but old conditions are passing away and
1t Is now possible for the housewife to
prepare delicious meals for her family
and never feel the heat from the stove
The kerosene or gasoline stove and
the fireless cooker used together make
cooking easy and pleasant and dispense
with the sickening heat.
have a thI burner oil stove and a
treless, both of which cost me less than
$25, but after using them one summer
l felt that they were worth many times
that amount to me. l wish that could
prevail on every woman in the country
to purchase two helpful articles now.
1t Is delight to prepare your break
fast on the oil stove, because it is so
easily and quickly done. Then when you
take up your breakfast plate your rad
lators from the cooker on the stove to
heat while you are eating. After break
astput your vegetables, which you have
gathered in the cool of the previous
afternoon and your meat in the shining
aluminium vessels, cover tightly and set
on radiators to boil. When boiling
briskly place radiators, vessels and all
in cooker, shut tightly and think no
more about then until IL O'Clock. The
cornbread and potatoes to bake should
also be put in cooker between two
radiators. You can nov go about your
other work and recreation until about
20 minutes till dinner time, when you
make your biscuits and put on the OIL
stove to cook. While they are cooking
prepare the table and take your dinner
from the cooker. When the men come
in they will find a delightfully."- cool
kitchen and dining-room, and will enjoy
the pleasure eff sitting down to a steam
ing hot dinner served by a cool cook.
Anything from cup of coffee to a
fruit cake may be cooked in the cooker
and on the oil stove as well, so if one
wishes she need not own any range at all
To the woman whose family is fond of

Indeed. sir, it u.s." said the stranger,
''but thought only few short min

shore have my sympathy"

''did this occur?"
"Oh, not over half mile" replied
the stranger.
Couldn't NO over5ske the villain, -
asked Reuben. ''and retake your prop
erty?"
"We could easily overtake him." re-
piled the man, but as to retaking my
property, it might not be so easy. But
never shall 1 risk myself any closer to
that fiend than 1 can help. OF course
my goods were valuable, but shall ne t
try to recover them"
Stranger, said Jim, "ef yer want
US to, me and Rube will go ar'ter him
fer ye."
mo, Friends" replied the frightened
man, do not imperil your lives for the
sake of a few trifes, which can be
bought again anywhere at a small ex-
pense."
Here the conversation ended for a
moment, Reuben being the first to
speak,

told the story of the murder of his fam
lily, which was listened to with breath

After delivering his story he and his

BEWARE OF FAKE AGENTS AND DOUBT
Full BARGAINS.

With the opening of SIMMER agents
of all descriptions, representing every
thing from shoe strings to pianos are
infesting the countryside. Some may
be all right and their goods all right but
usually they have a cheap article which
they seek to sell at one hundred and fifty
per cent profit by means of a rich, mes
merizing, oily flow of speech and an
insistance that is annoying to the busy
house wife. The agent realizes that if
he once gets his spiel under Roadway he
has good chance of giving it to the end
and, by hook or crook, influencing sale
To get this start the agent, as soon as
the door is opened, thrusts foot across
the threshold with the result that it is
exceedingly hard for the lady of the
house to get rid of the caller. 1t will
be their own fault if some of these pesti-
ferrous gents before summer is over 90
hmping from banged door to a doc
tors office to have the amputation of a
few toes completed.
Later on, too, will come the affable
stranger desiring to sell the farmer some
fencing, or machinery, etc, at a low
price-a little money in advance and a
note or two signed clinches the bargain
and in few days or weeks the signer
realizes how badly he has been stung.
If you buy of agents see that they are
home firms, firms that you
know and that are putting up guaran-
tees on the materials they sell. They
are not here for once only and to cheat
