Why He PLAYED IL.

Some years ago the Oldham anna
teurs were producing one of Handlers
oratorios under the personal tuition
and conductorship of the late Charles
Halle. Among the orchestra was the
famous and gigantic bassoon player,
George Seel At the final rehearsal
Halle went to George and, indicating
several bars for the bassoon. told him
not to play them on the night of the
performance. George was inwardly
boiling with indignation, but said
nothing.
On the night of the performance
George played the banned music.
When the affair was over Halle went
up to Seel in a great rage and, point
ing to the notes, said:
II told you to leave that out.
didn't II"
AYE. you did," said George. but
Handel told me to put 1t in, and he
were better judge than you!"-Lon-

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

To save face towels, put hanger
on both ends of the towel and you
will find that instead of one end
wearing and the other remaining un
worn, both ends will wear evenly.
One quart OF -four made up into
baking powder biscuits will make
from IL TO 10, according to the size OF
the cutter.
Always leave the teapot or coffee
pot lid open a crack to admit the air
and prevent mustiness when not in
use. A piece of paper slipped in is
sufficient to keep it open.
When using whipped cream, il you
add the white of an egg to the cream
and whip with it. it requires less
cream and is more delicate in taste
and flavor.

SCRIPTURE
Proverbs 1O:22-3O.

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh
rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.
1t is as sport to fool to do mis-
chief: but a man of understanding
hath wisdom.
The fear of the wicked, it shall
come upon him: but the desire of
the righteous shall be granted.
AS the whirlwind passeth, so is the
wicked no more: but the righteous is
an everlasting foundation.
AS vinegar to the teeth, and as
smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard
to them that send him.
The fear OF the Lord prolongeth
days: but the years of the wicked
shall be shortened.
The hope of the righteous shall be
gladness: but the expectation of the
wicked shall perish.
The way of the Lord is strength to
the upright: but destruction shall be
to the workers of iniquity.
The righteous shall never be re-
moved: but the wicked shall not in
habit the earth.

L. A. Simpson, of Dickinson, who
was the choice of the people in the
Third Congressional District by a SUBJ
stantial majority of first choice votes
at the last Primary election and was
counted out by second choice votes, is
the popular candidate this year. His
opponent is deluging the mails with
free seeds and free literature from
Washington at the Government ex-
pense, but it is the opinion of the in
telligent people that the voters of the
Third District are not to trade their
votes for a package of seeds, which
in the main will mot come up" The
popularity of Mr.. Simpson, where he
is best known, is demonstrated in the
fact that he received Sc per cent of the
total Republican vote cast in his
home county stark at the last Pri-
mary election and also by the fact
that in his home city of Dickinson,

twenty-four years and where more

do not know anything about, law but
reason tells me that if the sheriff is
deprived of his authority and priv

contract he should also be relieved of
the responsibilities imposed upon him
by law as sheriff in connection there
with. This the law does not do hence
I think the sheriff has the same auth
ority- and privileges while collecting
taxes under contract as he otherwise
has. Mr.. Shaw also states that Mr..
M. S. Williams offered to collect those
taxes for fifteen per cent. If that is
true why did not the county commits
sioners let it to Mr.. Williams, if they
had the power to do so? The object
of both Mr.. Shaw and Mr.. Vandenoev-

dency to do that and it is undoubtedly
their object. We know the reason
why. The want to get hold of the
sherif's Office, and Mr.. Lee, being a
popular man and a strong candidate,
they have to resort to all kinds of ar
guments to defeat Mr.. Lee. We rec
ognize the right of any one to be a

extent be determined by his manner
of campaigning. i have my doubts
about anyone that has to 60 to the
voters for support on the faults of his
opponent. It seems that the candi-
dates own personal merits should be
the foundation on which to bring his
case before the people.
Yours truly,
