COULDN'T FOOL Mr.. MARTIN
Alleged Fact Of Natural Mistory Alto.
oetber Too Much for Him
to Believe.

The best people in Dark Hollow had
Just begun to sit up and take notice of
the fact that along the Great White
Way and in other large centers there
was such a thing as the turkey trot.
The Martin family, however, living on
the far outskirts of the Hollow, had not
heard of this peculiar and seductive
motion.
II see," said Mrs. Martin, "by the
Dark Hollow Weekly Struggle that q
lot of chickens in Chicago are turkey
trotting."
"Shucks!" said Mr.. Martin, with In
effable disdain. That's just another
mistake in one of those bulletins that
the dinged. crazy department Of agri-
culture sends out. They're always try.

FOR THOSE FOND or VEAL

Which the Meat Can Be
Served.

Five or six pounds veal brisket, two
onions. two carrots, one-fourth hand

one tablespoon flour. salt and pepper.
Cut the brisket in pieces about
three inches long and one and one
half inches wide. Freshen them In

Place them in stew pan, cover with
cold water. and when it begins to boil
add two onions, two carrots sliced.
parsley (tied with a thread). white

Allow to cook one and one-half
hours. When the veal is cooked melt
in another sauce pan two tablespoons
butter; mix it with one tablespoon

DRIVER OR DRINKsHoP7

Chicago coroner gives 1t as his
opinion-the result Of his experience
with joy-riding accidents-that men
who are out all night drinking whis.
ky and beer should not be trusted
to drive automobiles. II there is no
law, he says, under which drunken
chauffeur can be locked up, the city
council had better get busy and make
one.
How would 1t be to lcck up the
places which make drunken drivers
Why not outlaw the thing which
makes the men incapable Of handling
a machine? The people of Chicago
or any other city can do it. They
can see to 1t that no automobile
fatality is caused by drink. It's up to
the voter to get busy"

KITCHEN WRINKLES

A piece OF starch placed in the wa
ter will keep flowers fresh for quite
long period.
If little saltpetre is sprinkled over
the fire occasionally it will keep the
chimney free from SCOT.
After washing cut-glass articles let
them dry and afterwards rub them
carefully with prepared chalk. with a
soft brush.
Potatoes are more nutritious II
boiled in their skins, after being
rubbed clean; they can be skinned be-
fore taking to table.
After using a gas stove for baking
leave the door open a little while to
allow the heat to escape. This will
prevent sweating and rusting.
The best way to keep a dustbin
fresh and clean Is to put hot ashes into
II each time it has been emptied. 1t
keeps it quite clean and free from all
smells.
Celery or parsley rubbed on the
hands after peeling onions will coun-
teract the odor. Lemon, borax or am
monia Is excellent for removing stains
from the hands.
Brown stockings should never be
ironed, but just passed through the
mangle to smooth them out. A hot
iron will spoil the color and give them
an unpleasant yellow tint.

Probably the finest example Of a
popular amusement and recreation re-
sort, as absolutely successful as 1t is
dry, Is Long Beach, Cal, writes a
w. c. T. U. woman of southern Cali
fornia. Since the voting out of the
saloon 13 years ago, she tells US, the
growth and development of Long
Beach has been both rapid and sub
stantial, the census returns for the
decade, 1900-191O, showing an increase
in population of SOL per cent. In 1900
the saloons were voted out by a
strong majority, and this position was
strengthened last January by an iron
clad no-license charter amendment
which prohibits hotel licenses and any
importation of liquor into the dry
territory.
In 1900 the bank deposits were
$4,000; children in schools, 1923;
homes. 628; churches, four, and lum-
ber yards. one. Today, the bank de-
posits are $s,50O0O0; bank capital
stock. 100000; surplus, $412,757;
school children, $3.50; homes, 5,22O.

to 13. Real estate values have ad-
vanced, in the business area, from
$3.50 lot to $6O,00O in the 13 years.
with a corresponding gain in realty

So strong is "dry" sentiment in

WHY THEY WON,

The sporting writer Of large east
ern daily tells OF the first notable VIC
tories won by American athletes over
those of England. An English team
had come to New York for an easy
time in maintaining their old-time su-
periority over all other nations. The
evening before the openinE-of the
events few of the Americans dropped
into the British headquarters and were
astonished to find several of them sip
ping ale. In reply to their express
sions Of surprise the Englishmen pro-
tested: "Oh, we always drink ale, but
not much of It," In the ensuing con-
tests Great Britain was badly beaten.
Sportsmen in the tight little isle are
now speaking seriously Of the United
States rise in the athletic world, and
are beginning to admit that the Amer
lean system Of no intoxicants and no
tobacco at all times must be adopted
In England If the mother country can
hope for the regaining Of her lost
laurels.

Denver-"Speculato need not ap-

the State Land Board regarding the
proposed sale of about 10000 acres of

Hoggatt, land we are satisfied that
they had no intent to settle upon the

word to the "speculating" applicants
that they can have the land at the fig

it, and improve such portions of the
land as this board sees fit. We must

VERY MUCH ALIVE.

Bellaire, Ohio, has been without sa-
looms for nearly five years. Accord
ing to the argument of the "wets" it
should by this time be dead as a
door nail" But nowhere in the Ohio
valley" the Wheeling Intelligencer
tells us, can be found buster or live
lier town than Bellaire. This fact Is
plainly demonstrated every Saturday
night. All the stores along the main
streets were SO crowded that progress
was almost impossible. One merchant
stated that the crowd in his store was
SO large the he, assisted by his corps
Of clerks, could scarcely accommodate
them. This city is now on straight
and rapid road Of progress. and in a
few years will undoubtedly be the
foremost city Of the valley. The peo-
ples are becoming aware Of the fact
that the money spent at home builds
up the town and makes it a better
place to live in.
