WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
The Great Orator to be in Lamar
on june It'll. Part Of the
Chanfauqua Program

The Radpath-HOrner Chautau-
qua management has arranged a
great treat for the people of the
Lamar territory in addition to their
regular program. 1t will be no
less than the great orator of the
present day, William jennings
Bryan. who will be in Lamar on
Friday, June 7th. No attraction
could have been given which would
be more pleasing to the large ma
jority of our people and the fact
that he is again looming up as a
presidential possibility will add to
the interest.
MI. Bryan toured through the
Middle West with the Redpath-Hor-
ner Chautauquas few weeks
last summer and, consented at that
time to fill more engagements this
summer.
Because of the convention in
Baltimore 1t was necessary either
that some Of these early engage
ments be cancelled or that eanlier
dates be arranged. Mr.. Bryan
kindly consented to the latter, and
Lamar will thus be included in his
summer itinerary.
Those who hold Chautauqua sea-
son tickets will be admitted to the
Bryan address free; for those who
do not hold tickets. the Admission
will be SO cents.
Although Mr.. Bryan is coming
under Chautauqua management, his
address is in addition to the regu-
lar seven-day Chautauqua program
which will follow later.
AS this will be given before the
regular time of the Chautauqua it
Ia impossible to announce yet as
just what arrangements will be
made as to place for holding the
meeting or other matters in con-
nection.

HEALTH NOTICE

Notice is hereby given that for
the benefit of the public health all
dead animals must be buried at
once. Many deadly diseases. es-
pecially spinal meningitis. are
originated in the carcases of un-
buried animals. and 1t is to be
hoped that this notice will therefore
be promptly complied with.
All land owners upon whose land
such animals are found will be held
responsible for their burial should
they not have proof of the owner
ship of the animal at time of death.
The county authorities will pay
reward of $40 to anyone furnish
ing proof of any person hauling
dead animals from incorporat-
ed towns of Prowers county and
leaving same unburied.

John Dills, an old Confederate veter-
an left an egg shell at this office the
other osy on which the letters ''W NJ

alone on an egg is usually taken to
stand for war, but the added IN" makes

AIDS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

When keeping bread warm 20 rise
In winter, a slate stone made warm
on which to set the pan will hasten
the process.
Now that eggs are so scarce, an
eggless cake viii be welcome.
Eggless Frultcake.-Take two cuns
OF brown sugar, one cup of molasses.
pint OF boiling coffee. d pound of fat
salt pork chopped fine, q tablespoonful
OF soda, one teaspoonful Of cloves. all.
spice. ginger and T. pound Of eurrants.
a hall pound Of shredded orange peel.
lemon and citron, and a half pound Of
chopped nut meats. Over this pour
the hot coffee and molaeses and soda
Add flour to make stiff. Bake slowly
two hours.
When roasting meat, parboil a few
small juicy turnips until nearly ten
oer, then lay them I'm with the meat
and basic occasionally until well done
Never try TO boil when using tho
oven, as opening the stove will cool
the oven. ParbOiliDg in a hot frying
pan will do when the better way is
not available.
A fine cake mixer when one is
making enough to go TO the bother. il
small ice cream freezer can. Put in
the ingredients and beat with the pad.
die by turning the crank
German Mush.-Cook a ham or beef
bone until the meat falls off. Salt the
water and stir in oat meal, cook until
well done, then turn out into creased
pans to mold. Slice and fry.
To preserve brooms, dip them for
three minutes in pail of boiling soap
suds every week. This cleanses them,
makes them more tough and pliable
and they will wear longer.
A delicious accompaniment to fried
chicken is fried mush. Fry the mush
before 1t gets cold. II will be crisper
and sweeter than of it were nodded
before it is fried.

Walking $4,000 Miles For Wafer.

The North Carolina Christian Advo
cate tells the story of a farmer Whose
family had to carry water from a spring
about quarter of a mile away. Bis
wife, after thirty years of this work
ventured to complain about it and lit.
tie figuring was the result. The farmer
could scarcely believe it when he found
that bis wife had walked "a, 900 miles
carrying water from this spring. As
soon as he realized what his careless
ness In this respect meant he had 2 well
dug right at the house. OF course.
there will be less walking for the good
woman to do to get water from the
well, yet, if the farmer had figured a
little longer, he would doubtless have
found out that the time and labor spent
In pumping water from the well would
amount to enough to make this very
expensive way Of getting water when
compared with system of home water
works. The reason so much unneces-
sary work of this kind is done is that
people never stop to figure out lust
what these crude ways Of doing things
really cost.-The Progressive Farmer.
