Today's Short Story
The Missing Ring

" BEN GRABBLE was sitting on
moving machine cutting the July
wheat. Eben was light hearted.
Within week the crop would be In,
and then be was going to take time
to get married.
Soon a pretty sight met Eben's vi

through the wheat. The sun shone
down on her pink calico dress; her
face was concealed by a sunbonnet.
When she came up she pushed the bon
net back and stood with a troubled
look on her young face.
What on airth's the matter, Katie?"
asked Eben.
"The ring; it's gone"

'Yes. l left it at the well when l
was washing my hands to go for a
towel, and when came back it wasn't

Eben jumped down from the ma
chine and put his arms about her.
Katie Ball was slender and graceful
and very young, so young that this
was her first real trouble.
Never mind, sweetheart" he said
consolingly. "Tll get you another"
"Yes, but it won't be that one"
An hour later Moll Tinker passed on
the other side of the fence. She had
been to the store for pitcher of mo-

PREVENTION OF FRECKLES.
Even IL They Cannot Be Banished. Care
Will Reduce Their Number.

Those who freckle very easily should
remember that prevention is better
than cure and make a point of wearing
shady hats and carrying parasols in
summer. They should never omit APP
plying face cream and powder before
going out of doors; only the merest
busting of powder is necessary.
Massage helps a great deal in pre-
venting and graduating freck!es. Pro
tecting the skin in the manner pre-
scribed serves to prevent freckles also.
Some skins are so delicate that they
freckle very. very quickly in the sunl-
mer. Glycerin and rosewater Uixed
In the proportion of two oi,nces of
glycerin to one ounce of rosewater
make a sp.endid freckle iction. In
the case Of some skins the addition OF
about four ounces OF lemon juice to the
the glyeerin and rosewater has splen-
did results. 1t should be applied sew
e,ai times daily and literally at night
time.

Johnson for state treasurer were

to defeat the high tax crowd The

Precious Salt.

Precious Salt.
What is known as "radium' is a
radium salt. usually either radium
bromide or radium chloride. sometimes
radium sulphate. Tiny grains Of these
salts are extremely precious and are
usually sealed up in little glass bulbs.
The radium In one OF the first bulbs
that were received in London had a
curious history. A physician in Port
land place was applying the bulb to a
patient when he accidentally let it fall
and moment after crushed it under
his foot The value Of the radium TO
the physician was very great. He re-
moved his boots from his feet and cut
out a square of his valuable carpet.
He had boots and carpet burned and
ont of the ashes refined the original

Buttermaking.
In butter making men are apt to
be more careless than women, be-
cause they do not so readily recog-
nize the Importance of little things.
A little dirt or odor of cream kept a
trifle too long may seem unimpor-
tant to them; while most women
recognize instinctively that milk.
cream, and butter require strict
cleanliness and prompt attention. If
necessary, help him clean up about
the barn and milk house and remove

feet the quality of your dairy pro-
ducts. Then keep all the dairy
utensils absolutely clean and sterile;
see that the products are taken to

good points. Do not let him sell
canning fruit for table fruit nor vice

certain vegetables should be pre-
pared will persuade an inexperienced
woman to buy when she is in doubt.
For instance, one should know that
