Try to Uncover History.

Jacob Zinc. who formerly boarded with
the family, was also brought to head
quarters. Detectives meanwhile were
making efforts to uncover the history OF
Mrs. Manning's domestic relations and
her friendships.
The police were inclined to attribute
the crime to jealousy, suspectins trouble
between Mrs Manning and the woman
who killed her over one of Mrs. Man
nings admirers. The fact that the woni-
an announced herself when she called
as Mrs Manning's girl friend from
Philadelphia prompted the local police
to seek the aid of the police of that city.
Manning and the young woman who
was held last night left police headquar-
tiers together, but neither would discuss
the murder. The woman was heavily
yelled and her identity could not be
learned, the police refusing any informa-
ton concerning her.
Manning has been separated from his
wife since July, 1911. Following their
separation the wife went to the home
of her mother, Mrs Harriet Cobb.
where she had since lived with her parent
and a sister, Mrs. Mary Riley, who also is
separated from her husband. Several
persons have been accustomed to take
their meals at the house, but Mrs. Man
ming received few callers not well known
to her family.

friends, and the cheefing dictum from
his doctor that he had only year to
live. To while away the few months
still left to him, as we'll as to help out
his household expenses, he took up
the study Of edible mushrooms. At
the end Of year in the open, he noti-
fed his indignant physician that he
had become to much interested in his
hobby to confirm his diagnosis. In
ten years he has discovered, classified,
and tested one hundred and seventy
kinds OF edible Mushrooms. and has
published book which is one OF the
standard authorities for mushroom.

Another septuagenarian attributes
his long life to the stars. Confined to
business during the day, he sought the
changing consultations and the per-
picking planets. Then he found that
with an opera glass he could detect
their colors, and revelled in the blue
light OF Vega, the green glare Of
Sirius, the rose-red of Aldebaran, the
fame-color Of Betelgeuse, and the
strange SHADES OF other cleaning
sky-kings. Finally he bought small
telescope. Now at seventy he has
published monograph on the double
stars, besides quaint little star-guide
that has interested thousands in his
hobby.
None Of the nature studies requires
much money or time. A cheap illus
trated guide book, an opera glass, and.
If possible, some walks and talks with
an expert, and you will learn almost
immediately to identify a score or
more of flowers, or birds. or constell-
atoms, or mushrooms, and you will
have found hobby on which you may
ride away from Death.
Try it, young men. lest you grow
old. Try it, old men, before you grow
tired. Escape into the open from these
narrow indoor days and learn the way
to where the wild-folk dwell. In their
land you will find the help of the hills,
and hope wide as the world, and
strength, and youth, and happiness.
Try it.

FInnker Anologlzes.

Flunky Flu declares that the Tele-
gram has hurt his feelings very much
but that he forgives. With that the
Telegram apologies to its readers for
having been in argument with the fell
low run out of Sistersville by women
and closes the incident.
Not only is the Exponent idiot
keeping children away from Sunday
school by having them on the streets
Sunday mornings trying to sell copies
of his newspaper, but the Telegram
fears he has caused the city treasurer
to labor on the Sabbath, figuring out
the amount of taxes due the city by
the Exponent. Remember some OF
these patriotic editorials you have
written, "long gal" Now show that
you are patriotic by coming across
with your city taxes. A municipality
cannot be operated on hot air.
In accepting the EXponent's apoI-
cgy the Telegram advises Flunkey
Flu to think twice before he speaks,
instead Of talking so much without
thinking.
These incidents place the Exponent
in such an embarrassing position in
the circles of the profession that
Flunkey ought to get onto himself.

Cooking Summer YeretnbIes,

Vegetables with q strong flavor, like
cabbage, onions, and turnips, should be
cooked in q large amount OF water and
kept boiling rapidly, according to
Womans World for June. Such vege-
tables will improve with the addition
Of bit Of Soda The soda helps to
soften the. fiber Of these vegetables,
and when the water is to be all poured
off, no appreciable trace of the soda
remains.
But don't use soda with beans, peas,
carrots or other sweet-juiced vege-
tables. These should be cooked in q
small amount Of sailed water. Soda
destroys the delicate green color of
these vegetables, while salt intensifies
It. Gently .simmering these vegetables
also helps them to retain their color
and natural flavor. Soft water is CON
sidered better than hard for cooking
vegetables. When it is used, care
should be taken that it is perfectly
pure. Summer vegetables should be
cooked as soon after gathering as pos
sible Deterioration is especially no.
ticeable in asparagus, peas and corn.
People who raise their own vegetables
notice that even in potatoes and car
rots there is decided diifirence be-
tween the freshly dug and those kept
for some time. When they must be
kept, they should be put in cool,
we'll ventilated cellar or in the ice
box. Lettuce keeps we'll if sprinkled
