How OcaIa HOusekeepers May save
Money, Time and Trouble if the
City Continues to Help
Times UniOn)

A few months ago Mrs. L. c. Pen
singer, 935 Haskell avenue, Kansas
City, Kans., picked up a pencil and
paper and began to figure. Like ev-
cry other good American housewife,
Mrs. Pensinger was trying. to figure
down the high cost OF living.
1t was impossible to cut the groc-
cry and meat bill. There are five
members of the Pensinger family
and all had to eat. 1t was impossi-
BILE to cut the clothing bill. The lit
tie Pensingers were champions at
wearing out clothes. She figured on
one item of expense and another un-
til she came to heat for cooking.
Suddenly she announced the an
swer. She was going to save on the
fuel bill. She bought electrical
equipment and did her cooking with
the new style pots and kettles. The
first week she reported she had paid
only " cents for electricity.
Mrs. c. w. Green, wife of the may
or of Kansas City, Kan, tried the
same method of cooking. In her
home, 1915 Ruby avenue, she watch
ed the meter while cooking three full
dinners for three persons. The cyl
inder in the meter clicked merrily as
the food was being prepared. When
she had finished cooking she count
ed the revolutions and found the
three dinners had cost her exactly s
cents
Mrs. Arthur Armitage, 700 Quin-
daro boulevard, Kansas City, Kan,
made a more detailed experiment.
She baked biscuits with electricity
| for / cent. She baked six potatoes
| for l cent She baked a two-pound
loaf of cornbread and it cost her /
| cent.
Besides the economy in fuel these
three women didn't have TO bother
with cutting kindling or shoveling
coal 1t was as simple as looking
at the clock. They did not even
! have to strike a match, as in light
4 ing gas. They just turned on 8
switch and the current did the cook.

ton. Mere current made more hear
and less current made less heat
There was no worrying about The
drafts or hampers.
Now these three women has
; friends across the river in Kansa!
City, No. These friends tried tht
same stunt and found it cost then
three and cne-third times as mucl
TO do the same cooking. Electricit.
cost them 10 cents a kilowatt. whil
IL Kansas City. Kan. it costs only

The whole secret is that Kansa

does not.

NEWPORTS REPLY.
Newport Accepts The Evidence and Many Readers Will
 Profit By 1t.

Which is the more weighty proof-a few words from a New port resident. whom we know and respect, or volumes from strangers in distant towns ? There can be only one reply.
 w. L. Hall, farmer, R. F. D. No. 2, Box 97, Newport, Ark, says:
 "I have never lost an opportu- nity during the past six years to praise Doan's Kidney Pills, for what they have done for me, as we'll as others of my family They have made such complete cures of kidney trouble that it has not been necessary for us to take them or any other kidney medicine during the past few years. One of the family took Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Dutton's Drug Store, (now walk CTS Pharmacy), for trouble with the kidney secretions, together with a weak and painful back They cured her and later I used
  them for a similar complaint Their action in my case was just as satisfactory and I was quickly cured"
 Price, 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that MT. Hall had. Foster Milburn Co.,, Proprietors, Buff falo, New York. (AdY.)

 New York, April 30. -Ru- mors of a change of control of the Missouri Pacific railway from the Goulds to an important banking interest were circulated in the financial district late to- day. They were supplemented by dispatches from the West stating that expert accountants and railroad engineers were making an inspection of the pro- posed new interest. Kuhn, Loeb : & Co.,, who were mentioned as acting for the purchasers, de- clined to deny or affirm any par ticipation in the reported trans action. It is known, however, that these bankers, acting for a syndicate, have been willing to purchase control of the Mis- souri Pacific from the Gould family.
 Missouri Pacific, which fell to new low record early in the day, recovered over 1 points in the late dealings. Trading in the stock has been extremely heavy recently and it is believed that the banking interests have al- ready acquired substantial hold ings in the open market.

While The War Drums Beat.

Our boys in blue are marching Onward they go Through the plains of Texas, To the hills of Mexico. They're bravely marching To meet q southern foe That tried to stain our flag In the streets in Mexico. Our navy is alert
 And sailing for their port To defend her sacred honor, Though war we never court. Our guns will tell the world In language pure and plain That we will fight with all our
 might
 Her honor to maintain. The fields may be strewn With the wounded and the
 dead.
 The water of the sea
 May be turned to crimson red. The widows and the orphans May vail their bitter woe, But we will never pull her down On the shores of Mexico. Onward, boys! Onward! Halt not nor e'er retreat. Take each town and city While the war drums beat.
