Green Corn Performance.

When eating green corn great care
should be taken to keep the corn out
of the hair and ears particularly if
you are dining out in company. Of
cource if you are eating alone or in a
restaurant you may go as faa as yon
like. In other words you may chew to
the line and let the corn fall where it
will. The main object snould be to get
at least SIS per cent of the corn into
your system and not more than 45 per-
cent Of it on the tabelcloth and the
floor. The whole ear of corn should
be buttered at one time, for this is a
waist of raw material. Nothing is
swifter or more elusive than piece of
butter which has been placed on the
ear of hot corn. A person is apt to
miss it suddenly and find it a few
minutes afterward in his vest pocket
or in side his shoes. 1t is better to
butter about one mouthful at one time
and then grab it suddenly. 1t requires
ar much dexterity as swrtting the file,
and is much more exciting. g.-Dixon

Saginaw September Races


The remarkable success of the first
meeting of the Saginaw Fair and Racing
Association has caued the new half-mile
plant of the Saginaw horsemen to be-
come known all the country and the fast
time made set horsemen and lovers of
the sport of kings to talking about the
the fall meeting which will be given on
the same track on Sept. 9, 10, IL, and
18th. Secretary Louis Smith of the As
sociation has received positive assurance
that practically all of the horses who
were entered at the first meeting will
come back to try conclusions at the fall
dates.
The problem of racing in Saginaw
was mighty one when the directors took
broken down track and rehabitated it
into fine plant this summer and the
squareness which featured the races in
July has given Saginaw a reputation
among horsemen all over the country.
At no half mile track in the entire United
States this year have the PAGERS and
trotters worked as fast as they did at
Saginaw and excellent time and now
MARKS are looked for gong rings on
Sept. 8.
The Association is fortunate in secur-
| ing for starter the services of Emil
Schwanz of Aurora, Ill for long time
attached to the grand circuit and an
official who is recommended by Pop"
Goors and other famous drivers as being
one of the best in the business.

selves as it were. Festive boards were
spread at noon and again at A 80 o'clock.
Tired but happy the. throng without
t5ev loss of one was returned safe to

Bv some strange chance her head
might some day have rested on your
shoulders. She's somebody's daughter;
pray God not yours.
Tonight the claws of the city are
ripping at her soul. Loneliness and false
pride has blinded her.
She is not bad girl, just tired, numb.
The dice were loaded. The game was
crooked. The odds were too great for
her wisdom and strength The roac
was strange and the guide posts lied.
Backbone life was drab thing
and sober faced. The petty tyrannies
of the little town, the eternal same
ness of the years, started her imag-
nation.
Romance was hungry within her and
cried for beauty and mystery and
adventure. And out of deprivation
sprang reckless yearing.
You did not understand, mother-of-
hers, wherever you are. you could not
see with her eyes. Your own were
filled with pictures Of family wash
and cooking and mending and broom:
and dust cloths.
Fate has paid you stingy and bitter
pence.
But that is just what she saw tha
and the thankless yoke under which
the wives of poor men struggle anC
strain and surrender
The wings of her fancy kept beating
across the miles and carried her into
dreamland of joy and gayety wher'
work would be as child's plas, will
real money all her own, to spend as sh'
chose-to buy what she wished.
But the wage shrank when it reached
her-its purchasing power shriveled.
Five dollars week (six, seven if yoV

plared the easier way.
But young girls who live alone ca
seldom protect thepselve7. Few hav
the intuition to comprehend until it
too late-some are too weak to fight
out-ahd some are too weary.
And now she has paid the price sh
has crossed the death line.
The city has dropped its mask an
she sits staring into its brutal, re
lentless, inexorable face, At least sh
realizes all that she has lost-all tina
might have been-the happiness tina
patience could have won.
She sees "the man back home" VIII
