10 the city council at their monthly
meeting last night petition signed
by over ffty-fye residents and tax
payers Of Berkeley Place that the res.
idents Of this section Of the city be
furnished with water. This is a com.
modify that has been long needed in
this thriving and rapidly building sec
ton and the residents have endeavor
cd on several occasions to secure this
from the council, but no action has
been taken so far
Mr. Reed states that all Of the sign
ers Of the petition have ayowed their
intention Of taking the water as soon
as it is plped TO their curb line, and
figuring on an average Of $1,000 per
annum for SIS families would yield
a revenue to the city of $4,000 or 5
per cent. on $1,000, which is. accord
ing to the estimate Of some authori-
ties, considerably more than the
amount required to make this extern
sion a private corporation. would

Anty Drudge's Free
Cook Book

If promises or appearances count for
anything, Anty Drudge's Cook rook-
the old lady's latest venture-should be
valuable to every woman who Is doing
her own work and trying to do it as well
as possible, with as little trouble, and the
saving of every possible dollar.
Anty Drudge is very talkative, and very
fearless. Also very full of advice. In her
Cook Book she acknowledges this state OF
affairs. She frankly says that she is hap
piest when she is doing something for
somebody, even if 1t is only giving good
advice'-and her advice is usually extra
good
The Cook Book primarily fulflls the
function of all cook books. 1t contains
recipes for everything under the sun.
Anty Drudge claims that they are good
and economical To be both. these days,
is recommendation enough for any cook
book. But Anty Drudge's Cook Book
goes further. 1t is full of helpful advice
to the tired and busy housewife. Anty
Drudge seems to have had the co-opera-
ton of many of her wise friends. and the
Household Helps at the end of the book,
as she says, were gathered from the cx-
periences of clever. homemaking, hard
working women, who have discovered
ways to tighten their work. With her
usual good nature and her genuine inter-
est in everybody's welfare, she has
passed them on.
Anty Drudge's Cook Book radiatcs an
optimism and cheerfulness which any one
familiar with her disposition would ex-
pect Certainly there is nothing selfish
about her, because, as she announces on
the title page she stands ready to an
swer any questions about housework or
cooking that any one writes to her about
