Expert Rings Bell on the High
Cost of Living-Market
Basket Results.

You can do fl.
You can reduce the high cost Of liv-
ing almost oue-half
At least that is the opinion Of an
expert who has devoted the greater
portion Of his life 10 the solution Of
this very problem.
Seeing the merits Of the Market Bas-
zet in last Fridays Georgian and ap-
preciating the great saving to the
housewife from the bargains offered,
and the splendid opportunities, Ebert
L. Thornton. steward Of the Atlanta
Athletic club and for years steward ~
large hotels throughout the country
for five years of the Kimball house IN
Atlanta-has submitted an interesting
digest. with suggestions which will
prove Of great value 10 the housewife
and the man who pays the bills alike.
The Solution.
Following Is the solution offered by
Mr. Thornton:
In addition to the bargains offered
in the Market Basket, the following
suggestions may be Of benefit to Geor-
gian readers
Don't throw away the handful Of
mashed potatoes, potato cakes, potato
croquettes etc
The chicken. is cooked. the broth is
left why throw it away? Save L
for Monday. II can be used for chick
en- soup with rice and is delicious. You
had a small amount Of rice left over
from your Sunday dinner The left
over rice would make a nice pudding,
or if you want wheat cakes for break
fast a little cooked rice in the batter
makes them fine.
The small amount Of lard that is
left after frying the bacon is enough
to fry potato cakes or could be used
in making waffles. 1t also gives
splendid flavor

ARRIVED SUNDAY
BUILDER OF NEW RAILROAD IN
CITY INSPECTING PROGRESS OF
WORK.

John Ringling arrived in his pri-
vate car yesterday over the Frisco
and will remain here for several days
inspecting the work being done on
the new road. The work on the line.
according to the statement of con-
tractors is progressing nicely and
with good weather will be finished
and in operation before the time limit
expires.
A new grading crew has been add
ed to those already employed on the
line and is at work about fifteen
miles west of the city, the grading
should be done as far as Hewitt
early this week if nothing happens
to interfere. When this point is
reached the contractors say that the
hardest part of the work will have
been done and the rest will be easy
in comparison. The supplies for this
road that were tardy in arriving
when the work was first started are
now coming as fast as needed and
there will be no further delays from
this source.

REPORT Of NEW

VERIFIED ALTHOUGH LOCATION
is IN GOOD FIELD.

Reports from the Oil fields today
state that the new Franklin well
continues to flow and that intermit-
tent gushes throw the oil high in
the air. This well will be tested this
week and arrangements made to take
care of the flow. Other wells are
going to be drilled on the property at
once.
Areport was sent out from Loco
Saturday that the old test well sunk
south of that place was now produc
ing after the drill had been sunk to
a depth of little over 500 feet. This
report was not verified, however.
neither was it learned what the we'll
promised to develop.
Many of the oil men who have been
here for the past week left Saturday.
but their places are being taken by
new arrivals who are Investigating
the field and the excitement has not
adated to any perceptible extent.

he was unable to give an accurate

PETTY THIEVES
STILL At WORK
WATCH STOLEN FROM RESI-
DENCE IN NORTHWEST ARD
MORE.

The police of the city are facing a
problem that is causing them sleep
less nights. For some time there
has been an epidemic of petty thiev-
cry going on in the city and it seems
impossible to catch the guilty ones.
The theets are in most instances
small and are evidently the work OF
boys. This morning four were in
the city court, two for making raid
on an orchard and vineyard in north
cast Ardmore, and two charged with
the theft of two pistols belonging to
company G. The latter were turned
over to the federal authorities as the
property alleged to have been stolen
belonged to the government. Hardly
had Judge Bridgman concluded his
labors in the city court when Prof.
WI. A. Erdman reported the loss of
valuable watch from his residences
yesterday afternoon.
He stated that he left the watch
on a dresser in the front room and
came to town for something. His
wife was at home in the rear of the
house and did not hear anyone enter.
When Prof. Erdman looked for his
watch after his return from town it
was gone, and a diligent search failed
to unearth the missing time piece.
Remembering that some boys had
been in the habit of visiting the place
asking for old junk, he reported the
matter to the police and gave them
that club to work on.
Besides the above cases in the city
court this morning Judge Bridgman
assessed a fine of s25 90 against one
party for gaming and $1,000 each
against two for disturbing the peace.
