or anxious to hurry others. He was
a well dressed handsome young fellow
and he seemed fiustered and excited.
The stranger looked over Tim, then
his hack. and then old Ready. 1t was
apparent from the disappointed ex-
pr 'ssion of his face that the layout
was not encouraging.

Tim.
Again the man looked over Tim and
his equipment.
Are you ready for a hard rum" he
inquired.
We'll, sir" replied Tim, "as you see,
old Ready is no racehorse, but If it's
a sure steady plugging gait he can't
be beat"
Get up on your box and follow or
ders. them" directed the stranger.
You shall have good pay, only do
just as | direct you," and to Tins
surprise the man got up beside him as
though resolved to act as pilot direct.
He pulled his coat collar we'll up
over his face and spoke crisply, nerv-
ously when he spoke at all. After
devious turns and windings he or
dered Tim to drive slowly d2wn dark
lane. Behind a laY5e-story b-ie...,
house he whispered III order to Hal.
Then he was lest in the daI. aCs5 o,

When he returned, to the amazemect

No" flared out the young man
breathlessly, "villainy! Poor dear!o
and he held the form more sheltering-

to help a good cause"
The man disposed of the senseless
form of the girl within the vehicle.
Then he spoke hurr,edly and definite

FOODS FOR HOT WEATHER
m.,+.r That Is Worthy Of the MOST
Careful Attention That Can 30
Given II

Much of the irritability Of the human
race il caused by overindulgence IN
unbalanced meals composed OF badly
cooked foods.
The modern, thrifty housewife plans
her meals SO as to secure the best diet
for her family. During the hot months
heat-producing foods--fats, sugar.
starches. heavy buildings and pies
and fried things should not be eaten
but rather those which are easily d.
gested and cooling to the blood.
The business In which the bread
winner of the family is engaged must
be considered when planning the
meals. The man or woman leading
a sedentary life requires foods easy
of digestion and assimilation. This
class Of people does not require as
much food as that engaged IN muscu-
lar labor. The latter class needs heaV-
Ter meals, but these should be less bur-
densome than in winter.
For both classes too much cannot
be said about masticating ones food.
The teeth were made for this purpose
and many Ills would disappear II food
was not bolted into the stomach, which
is too often overtaNed.
Salads rich with mayonnaise or
boiled dressing should never appear
at dinner, but be served for luncheon
or supper. Green or fresh vegetable
salads with a simple oil and vinegar
dressing are the proper thing for din
ner at all seasons. Potatoes can be
eliminated from the menu some days
and In their place substitute macaroni,
rice, hominy, beans, peas and other
starchy vegetables.-Woman's World.

Observation-Disclosures
HIS STRANGE FARE
BY AUGUSTUS GOODRICH sHER-
WIN.

Big Tim finished the last crumb of
his midnight lunch on the drivers seat
of his old-fashioned four-wheeled hack.
Then he took red misunderstanding
apple from his pocket.
NO" he said suddenly, drawing 1t
back as he was about to sink his
teeth in its Juicy depths-"Old Ready
will cheer up a bit If I give it to him
and he deserves it-brave, loyal fel-
low!"
So Tim got down from the seat,
broke the pippin in two with his strong
fists and fed the sections to the horse.
The latter tried to express his appre-
citation Of the cheering feast He
munched at the last shred of the tooth
some dainty, his eye fixed gratefully
on his master and then rubbed his
frowsy cheek against that of Tim.
ITS all right, isn't it?" chirped Tim
Ever the best of friends, hey, old
scout? What chums we've been nigh
on to twenty years. And now-ah
mel"
Tim sighed, and well he might. The
good old days were gone, indeed.
Square by square, mile by mile laws,
ordinances, the police had pushed the
old cab stand farther and farther from
the city center. New centers had
been formed, but chauffeurs and auto
mobiles and electric cabs had in.
truded.
Thus for over a year Tim and Ready
had been obliged to make their night
stand at the present corner-a street
car junction. An occasional fare came
along. There were some exigency
midnight calls from doctors, the hospi-
tai, or some belated convivialists.
Tim had grown old and hardened in
the service. Ready was dropping and
gray. The hack had seen both its
best and It's worst days. There was a
family Of four at home. Tim knew
nothing but driving a hack, SO he was
fast going down hill with a failing
business.
IF I only had the capital to buy

1t was about an hour later when
Tim, anxiously stroking poor Ready
who appeared to be at his last gasp,
was startled by the appearance of
two men. They were breathless from
running and in minute or two Tim
knew that they were on the trail of
his recent fare. They looked inside
the vehicle. Then they began to ques-
ton him as to the direction his pas
sengers had gone.
Sturdy Tim gave them no satisfac-
tion and they tried to force him to
speak. He beat off one OF his as
sailants The other Selling a stone
was about to lay him out, when Ready
staggered to his feet. With quick
nip he seized the mans arm between
his powerful jaws. There was a

Presidents Wife Dead

Yesterday afternoon, word came
to Liberal that the wife of Presi-
dent Wilson had died in Washing
ton following an illness of long
duration but which was not made
public. Since March rumors of
her falling health often was pub
lished but so stated that nothing
was feared by the public for her
recovery. Up until the time she
was not expected to live the public
was not informed of her serious
illness. Part of the Presidents
executive work was issued from
her sick room. In his great hour
of public mental worry and stress
came this loss of his wife. TO him
in his grief and sorrow the heart
of nation will go out.

Election Returns

Tuesdays, primary election over
Seward county passed with little
incident. Most of the Offices
sought had no opponents and the
struggle to win out at the pri-
maries was narrowed to three or
four offices. The race on the
republican ticket for sheriff was
so close that the winner came out
almost neck and neck with his
contemporaries. On the d e M
ocratic ticket, for register Of
deeds the ladies took a prominent
part and the results showed that
the winner here was only elected
by majority about twenty to the
good. The vote showed that a
good many of the ladies voted and
most of them knew how they
wanted to vote slso. The Senat-
orial race showed that Congress
man Geo. Neely carried th e
county on the democratic ticket.

for congressman was ahead hand.

two votes. Miss Gertrude
Carpenter, of Antelope Valley
acted as clerk of the board and
Mrs. Kate McCutcheon was judge

Creamery to Build

The Liberal Creamery an d
BottIing Works is to begin the
erection of a new building on
Second Street. They will be east
of the Lamp-Black lumber yard
and west of the Overland Garage.
The new building will be of brick
forty by one hundred feet and
will front both south and north.
On tine east private alley or
drive way will be left so that the
customer delivering milk ca n
come in from one street and 90
out another. The new location
will be much more convenint for
the firm which does an enormous
business in furnishing butter and
milk products to the Rock Island.
1t might be interesting to the
people to state here that the butter
put out by this firm is used on the
system from Chicago east to Cal
ifornia. The new building will
be one story but built SO that ad-
ditional upper building may be
done, The actual work will begin
some time this month";

creamerys For Seward Co.

/ Court Brown who is here from
San Diego, California is an en-
thusiast over the things h S
country can do. One thing that
he is in favor of for this country
IS more extensive dairy business.
He is talking of the extensive
business that he feels the people
of this country can build up if
they will only begin this work at
once.
| Mr., Brown knows this country
from o cattle mans standpoint.
He sees it now from the stand
point of what the new conditions
and adapted farming can do. He
knows what he is talking about
because he has the litature to back
him. Because he has interviewed
ttbe men aud women of this and
other states who are darying on
d small scale. These people he
finds in every community are the
j people who are the ones who have
ibank accounts and who are erect
ling permanent and substantial
buildings.
In an interview, Mr.. Brown
said, There is no reason why this
country can not develope into a
splendid dairy country. When
came back from Chicago last week
things looked better right out
4 here than farther east. There is
no reason why the farmer can not
raise some feed each year and
have that to feed his cows and
have the cream and milk to sell.
| do not believe that one should
never try to raise any wheat but
do believe the farmer out here
should not depend on that crop a
lone. 1t is too uncertain, that is
it is not to be depended on yea
after year. "A small bunch o
milk COWS will make a living foI
nan and family and the feed cal
be raised here because last yea
out here proved that.
i would like to see a creamery
started at Arkalon and believe i
the farmers in that section of thu
county would get togather tha
they could start a small cream
station"
Mr.. Brown is, particularly
interested in starting a milk con.
densery in his home town or in
the VICINITY and in getting inform,
alton for his project naturally saw
the chances for this section. He
does not believe however that 8
condensery for this country
would prove the better things for
a number of years if it did then.
