WILL SOME DAY BE UTILIZED
Almost Unlimited Power In the Cur
rent Of Niagara River, at
Present Embarrassed,

But for the efforts of the civic as
sociations whose desire Is to preserve
the scenic beauties Of the world in
general, the Niagara river could be
made to develop enough power to
move every street car, light and heat
every house and supply all the power
for manufacturing industry in the
state Of New York." said Edwin w.
Trimmer, United States consul at Nj
agara Falls, Ontario, at the Shoreham.
AT present scarcely more than per
cent. Of the possible power of the
Niagara river has been harnessed.
The current Of the river below the
falls will some day be harnessed by
some engineer without affecting the
scenery In any degree.
1T Has been only within the last
quarter Of a century that even the
falls themselves have been utilized
There have been efforts made to use
the current Of the river below the
falls, but these efforts have not proved
commercially successful. But one has
only to ride over the gorge route from
the city Of Niagara Falls, N. Y, to
Lewiston and back, over the Cliff road,
on the Canadian side, to realize at
glance what a terrific force surges
through the channel, and to under.
stand the possibilities Of power deveJ

SERVING CORN ON THE COB
Typical American Dish Requires Some
Care In Its Proper Preparation
for the Table.

There Is no vegetable Of which so
much can be made as the typically
American sweet green corn. Some
persons insist that no dish is more de-
licious than corn on the cob, but there
Is certain art which must be mas
tered IL even this simple dish Is to be
well prepared. One way to boil It 10
to select thick, short ears and remove
all OF the husk excepting the inner
layer. Strip that down and take OF
all the silk and cut out the grains that
are dried or discolored. Tie the husk
over the ear again and boil It 20 min
utes in a deep covered pot, or Is min
utes II the ears are small. Then re-
move the string which holds the husk
in place and serve either in the husks
or without the husks on a folded nap
kin.
Another way to prepare corn on the
cob is to remove the outer leaves and
silk from six young ears and put them
In saucepan with just enough water
to cover them. Add half cupful Of
milk, half an ounce Of butter and a
pinch of salt. Cook for 20 minutes,
covered tightly, and then serve. Re-
member that the sweetest ears are the
freshest.

Middle Names Once ILLEGAL.

People have not always been al.
lowed the pleasure Of having as many
names as they wished; indeed, 400
years ago not even a middle name
was allowed in England. It was ille-
gal. The old English law was definite
and admitted Of no infracticn Of it's
ruling. The only exception made to
this iron-clad regulation was In the
case Of persons of royal rank. II they
really wished It they could boast a
middle name. but woe to the person
OF ordinary rank who was sufficiently
unwise or obstinate to insist on hay
Ing more than two appellations.
For the first offense he would very
likely be tied to a whipping post
and severely lashed For a second
offense he would endure some more
lasting punishment, perhaps the re-
moval Of his thumbs or his ears. And
II he still persisted in his stubborn
ness he would be hanged.
There is a case on record of a poor
man-in all probability half dementsd
who insisted on signing four names
every time he wrote his signature to
any paper. OF course he passed
through all the legal stages of pun
ishment until he was finally hanged

A telephone letter is a novelty in

one end OF the wire with your cor
respondent at the other. Write the
letter as you would talk.

The typical telephone letter should
have short paragraphs, we'll detach-

Of the paper and make not only the
wording, but the general appearance
quite different from the ordinary
letter.
Commence an occasional paragraph
with Yes or NO" In answer to an
imaginary remark of your correspond
ent. This makes the conversational
style more apparent. With little in
genuity a good deal of news can be
incorporated in one of these letters
and 1t can be made interesting as we'll
