Keeping Milk from Turning

S Neeplng Mllk from turning
Sour
Dear Miss Doom.
Is there any method by which
milk can be kept from turning sour
during a thunderstorm?
NEWLYWED.
am told that the following Will
keep the milk sweet:
Before the storm put the milk in
a bottle which is. securely corked;
then place upside down in a pail OF
cold watera
The water, being a non-con-
ductor of electricity, keeps the
charged air from coming in contact
with the milk.
After the storm is over take the
bottle out and place in the refrig-
orator.

TON TO BE THROWN OPEN

Attorney Clifton Arnsparger, who
recently acquired the Bourbon College
property on Cypress street, will sub
divide the grounds into building lots,
and will hold lot sale within the
next thirty days.
This should prove to be one of the
most desirable additions yet thrown
open to the public in Paris. The
grounds are in an ideal location, close
ITO the business district, and no doubt
will be eagerly sought after by pros
pective home owners.
1t is said street will be run from
Cypress street through the center of
the grounds to connect with Walker
avenue, which will be extended from
Short street through the property to
the Fretwell line. This arrangement
will open up quite number of desir
able sites, and will not interfere with
the old college building Mr. Arm
Sparger will tear away the small
frame cottage on the grounds, as ii
would not be in keeping with the class
of homes that it is expected will be
built.
Watch for the date of this sale, and
take advantage of this opportunity to
buy high-class and we'll located build
ing lots in the heart of Paris.
