Kansas Freed from Quarantine.

Washington, D. c., July 27.-The en-
tire State of Kansas is now freed from
quarantine for the foot and mouth dis
ease, the order taking effect July 20.
The same order frees the States of
Connecticut and West Virginia, and
limits the quarantined areas in Ken
lucky, Maryland and Virginia to stock
yards at Louisville, Baltimore and Rich
mond. Five counties are freed in New
York, four in Pennsylvania, and one in
Illinois.
There is now very little territory still
under quarantine for this disease in the
United States. Four counties In
Illinois, three in New York, and two in
Pennsylvania, constitute practically all
that remain, with the exception of
stock yards and isolated premises. In
Kansas, the quarantine was confined at
its worst to four counties.

EnHiabIe Record

Otis l. Benton of Oberlin certainly
has no reason to get cold feet in his
race for congress if one is to judge the
popularity of his canvass by the numer-
Gus complimentary press notices he is
continually receiving at the hands of
the newspaper boys of this district.
Whether he is elected to congress or
not he certainly can congratulate him
self that his long residence in the Sixth
district has been so successful and
satisfactory to the people that nothing
but words of commentator and praise
for him appears in the papers of his
district. -Hoxie Sentinel.

It is refreshing in this strenuouS
commercial life to find so many dollars
with souls. When a dollar is approach
ed to perform task that does not d.
rectly yield the highest rate of interest,
we usually hear the rustic of the eagles
wings as it scars upward; when dollar
is requested to return at the option of
the borrower, it usually appeals to the
Goddess of Liberty for its contractural
rights; when dollar is asked to expand
in volume to suit the requirements of
industry, it usually talks solemnly of its
redeemer, but soul material has entered
into the vaults of our banks and rate,

ne Famous DIVA
am old-fashioned enough to think
that every girl should know how to
cook and should know the great i'm
portance to the human race of good
food, properly prepared.
More than three-quarters, yes,
might say at least nine-tenths of the
unhappiness of the human race, is
caused by the food they eat.
1t is all. well enough to say that if
one gets plenty of food to eat that is
all that is necessary, but plenty of
pie made the New Highlander pessi-
mistic dyspeptic.
Nothing affects the liver to the ex-
tent of badly cooked food combined
with lack of exercise.
Every girl should be proud of her
ability to cook nourishing and proper
food for the members of her family.
There is nothing monotonous about
keeping a house in order and in cook
ing the meals for ones family.
In the country where 1 was born
every woman from highest to lowest
wears an apron in her own home, and
well she may, for it is the badge of a
very high calling. Some clever wom-
an who has travelled much in Ger
many has said:
What his silk hood is to the Ok
ford scholar, what his mitre is to the
archbishop, what the iron cross is to
the general-the apron is to the Ger
man hausfrau."
Housekeeping is her 'fberuf," and
when she mentions it she speaks in
the same dignifed tones as minis
ter or doctor might in referring to
his vocation.
1t is her profession to which she is
called by all the traditions of Teutonic
centuries.
The German hausfrau is the do
nestle engineer, to distinguish her
from the mechanical engineer, which
is sometimes her husband, and not
