Most of us have heard Wilton
Lackey's celebrated bon mot about
going into a certain restaurant to
HEAR the patrons eat soup.
One of the first things to remem-
Der is that eating or drinking al
any time or place should be a noise
less operation.
Never allow your spoon to re-
main in a cup while drinking from
soup in order to reduce it's temper
AZURE. When dipping up a spoonful
of soup do 1t with an outward mo-
ton and sip it from the side of the
spoon.
Foods eaten with a spoon are hot
puddings. custards, grape fruit
cantaloupe. porridge, preserves and
soft boiled eggs.
If, however, one eats fruit OF
something which, like asparagus
or artichokes. is eaten with the
fingers, then bowl filled with
water in which a fragrant leaf oil
blossom floats may be placed al
each place and you may dip the
ends of your fingers in and lightly
rub them across the mouth.
Only the ignorant and under
bred bolt their food; scrape the
bottom of the plate or sup in hun
cry pursuit of the last morsel
masticate with the mouth open
talk with food in the mouth; take
large mouthfuls or smack the lips
when chewing.

thing on the table do not try to
scrape 1t up with your knife OIL

Dear Miss Grey: Every night

Miss Grey, 1 feel so sorry for

tell you they are in love. and
write this hoping some of them
will put on their thinking
caps. If 1 tell of my life, which
has been almost a living hell.
When I was 10 was led
wrong by an old man, five
times my own age. This man
kept me under his influence
until 1 was past fourteen.
When I was Is 1 could easily
pass for Is or 10. 1 quit school

ming around with their faces

Why don't someone take care of

Ed G!au. Business man of Charter Oak
Chosen Postmaster There; 3D.
itor McDermott at Manila.

The Geographic reports from Wash
ington on Friday last say that Mr. Ed
Glau has been confirmed as postmast-
er a. Charter Oak, succeeding Mr.. l.
A. Mains. The appointment and con-
firmation of Mr.. Glau come as a recog-
milton of his work for the democratic
party. He is we'll qualified for the po-
stion and will no doubt render good
service to the patrons. He has lived
many years at Charter Oak and his
acquaintanceship covers a wide terri
tory. His Denison friends extend con-
CALCULATIONS.
Editor McDermott was also named
for postmaster at Manila, to succeed
Mr.. R. C. Saunders. Mr.. McDermott
and his friends have been looking for
ward to this appointment for some
time, and now that it has been made
are feeling quite jubilant. Mr.. Nc
Dermott is a prominent business man
of Manila, having been editor of the
Times for a number of years. His ap-
pointment as postmaster will in no
wise interfere with his work in con-
nection with the Times. The newspa-
per men of the county, as we'll as his
many friends, congratulate.

Carroll is in danger of losing its
branch of the Iowa National Guards.
The term enlistment of thirty-two
members of the company has recent
ly expired and the company roll is
now below the number required by
the state to maintain the organization.
1t is said that there are enough young
men in Carroll who would enlist and
bring the company up to its full quota,
but are unwilling to do so because in
some cases their employers will not
let them off from work to attend the
summer encampment. If Carroll can
not supply the needed recruits the
company will have to disband and
some other town will be given the op-
portunity to fill its place in the regi-
ment.

From the Carroll Herald we learn
that the government building at that
place seems to have been temporarily
lost in the shuttle. Some time ago
bids on a number of properties were
submitted to the government, but
none of them have been acted on. 1t
seems that the price asked in each
case has been higher than the de-
partment chooses to pay. At Wash
ington, Iowa, which secured an ap-
preparation at the time Carroll did,
the site for the building has already
been purchased and building is soon
to begin. The citizens of Carroll
should be patient with the govern
ment for "all great bodies move SLOW
ly," according to the old adage.

was q great double victory that the
Griffmen won yesterday, making the
SEASONS standing fourteen victories for
trsm out OF nineteen games with the
worlds champion Boston Red Sox.
Joe Engel never pitched better ball
than he did yesterday against the Red
Sox. The boy was GOODNESS personified.
He allowed but one free pass and had
but one bad inning. He was not always
trying to fan the foe, contenting him
self with refusing him a chance to make
q bingle. The milk bottle hurler kept
the hits scattered at all times and when

It was an easy out, but Morgan and
Engel failed to cover first base and Il
went for a bingle. The young pitcher
was then facing a crisis. The bases were
loaded and none was out. He rose to
the occasion grandly, tanning Larry
Gardner, one Of the best hittera on the
Boston team, and then forcing Steve
Yerkes to hit into a double play. This
was Engers greatest piece OF work and
