Salads will never go out of style,
for they are such refreshing as well
as nourishing dishes that they should
be on our tables as often as it is
possible to prepare them.
The very early salads may in
clude the young dandeliOn and any
that have CHANGED to grow under
woodpiles Or boards, when they Will
| be beautifully white, tender and
crisp. A few Of these blanched dan
deliOns cut up and mixed with a
green onion or two likewise cut fine,
and a simple salad dressing Of oil
and vinegar with dash of catsup
and salt and pepper, makes most
appetizing salad. One may use any
desired salad dressing but oil is so
meaty and sweet and withal so full
of nourishment that everybody should
learn to like good olive oil.
Pepper grass and the mustard that
| is so annoying in the field as a
weed makes fine salads if dressed
with some good salad dressing.
If one is fortunate enough to live
near a small brook Or creek where
the water cress grows there is al
ways a supply of a most wholesome
green. Served with lamb or pork
chops just as a garnish and eaten
without any dressing it is a most
piquant and tasty salad. Mixed with
lettuce or pepper grass or served
alone with French Dressing of oil,
three parts, and vinegar, one part
salt and pepper to taste, it is a
salad par excellence.
Simple Lettuce and Peanut Salad

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result, Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, a child's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, SCI Charles ST.,
Luzerne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased"
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised. In using DR.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the prics is returned. Ask your
druggist. A box of IS doses costs
only rs cents, Never sold in bulk.

crush like coarse crumbs. Sprinkle
crisp we'll dried lettuce with the
peanuts and serve with French
Dressing. very little shredded
onion may be added for variety.
Outside leaves of cabbage rolled
closely and cut with a sharp knife
make a pretty garnish for any salad.
The leaves should be fresh and crisp.
The little curls may be crisped by
standing time in cold water. When
one wishes to make a salad espec-
tally pretty slices, cut very thin, Of
crisp red radishes arranged in over
tapping rows make very attractive
garnish Radishes cut to simulate
tulips is another way to treat them.
The brilliant red of the radish is a
most pleasing color but should not
be used with carrots or the red Of
beets, il fact too many cOlors are
not in good taste on any dish.
On the farm where there are
plenty Of fresh green vegetables and
always eggs, delicious cream and
butter, one may have salad dressings
galore for any number Of salad COM
binations.
A Good Salad Dressing that Keeps.
Take a half dozen eggs, beat Well
and add a half cup of mild vinegar
stirring it in gradually and put them
over hot water to cook When smooth
and thick the mixture will look like
mayonnaise. If beaten with an egg
whisk while cooking the dressing is
smoother. Put into a fruit jar and
set in a cool place. When it is
needed take out two or three table
spoonsful, add sugar, salt, red pep
per, paprika, mustard and cream to
thin. If making a fruit salad, omit
the mustard and pepper. This is
so easy to make and such a com
fort to have that every farmer
wife should keep a jar on hand.

Bohemia's Hero Burned at Stake
Five Hundred Years AGO


To the Bohemians of Wisconsin
numbering many thousands Of intel
ligent and industrious citizens, the
coming Independence Day celebra-
tions will carry double meaning.
They will commemorate on July 5
the 500th anniversary of the death
of their great national hero, Jan
Hus. The story of the life and
death Of this great religious lead
er is most dramatic. Because of his
criticisms of the clergy, and of the
doctrines of the church, in 1412 he
was declared a hereto and excom-
munlcated. His fellow BOhemians
rallied to his cause, however, and
he preached to ever-growing mum
bers. In 1414, he was induced by
Emperor Sigismund's promise of
safe conduct to attend the great
Council Of Constance, there to an
swer to the charges of. heresy that
were brought against him. The en-
perors promise was broken, how
ever; Hus was condemned, and on
July 6, 1415 was burned at the stake.
"The blush of Sigismund" over his
dishonored word passed into a
proverb. The memory of Hus has
ever since been cherished by his
countrymen.

year gives happy evenings to nearly
100000 newsboys. His book, The
Boy Problem, is said to have had
the largest influence in the develop

Elaine. down in the library. that she
had done nothing yet about the letter
from the Women's Guild.
Il wonder what there IL upstairs
that l can give them" she thought,
as she re-read the letter. Il think
I'll see."
She started up, just as lnez was
leaving.
The adventures in the attic heard
Elaine coming and quickly slipped be-
hind a door, letting Elaine pass her,
without being seen.
In the attic Elaine started to take
down and examine several dresses for
the rummage sale, laying them aside
one by one.
An attic is always a place that calls
up memories of the past, and Elaine
soon began to think OF things that
were suggested by one after another
of the discarded dresses. Besides.
some of them were scarcely worth
sending, anyway. She sat down. abb
sently, in the chair to think it over.
Suddenly a secret spring released
a set of bands that automatically and
swiftly clamped over Elaines arms
and about her body and neck, holding
her in a grip of steel. At the same
time a vapor bulb in the back OF the
chair shot out its smothering fumes,
rendering her unconscious.
Elaine was caught in trap.
Inez in silent exultation opened the
attic door just a trife. Then her
slender hand reached in and took the
key from the inside, shut the door and
locked 1t from the outside.
Stealthily Inez crept downstairs
from the attic and into Elaine's room.
There, taking care that neither Marie
nor Aunt Josephine was about. she
opened the closet and took out the
dress, coat and hat which Elaine had
worn when she was kidnapped by WI
and stuffed them into a suitcase. lnez
closed the suitcase quickly, threw on
her own hat and coat and left the
house unobserved.
Half an hour later she entered the
opium joint ON Mott street.
There were both WI and Long Sin
carefully examining a blonde wig made
up as closely as possible to resemble
the golden masses that were the
crown Of Elaine's beauty. Four or
five other Cinnamon sat and stood
about at respectful distance.
"Havo Won tho clothoo ?" oekod WIN
greeting Inez.
YES" she returned. All has been
done exactly as you ordered"
Good" complimented WI. Then
you may prepare yourself immediate
ly."
In the meantime a second trap was

taking on the receiver, but not an
swering. Instead, she hung up and
wedged the telephone bell with a
piece Of paper 30 that 1t would not
ring It all
She was about to move away from
the desk when Elaine entered the r.
brary.
Didn't I hear the telephone ben
ring?" she asked.
Inez was quick. YES" she replied,
my former mistress telephoned that
she 10 sending my trunk today"
"Oh, very WELL" smiled Elaine, pass
ing on through the library with an
encouraging nod to the girl.
Inez had killed two birds with one
stone. Not only had she disarmed
suspicion about the interrupted call.
but she had laid the foundation for
the delivery Of trunk which at that
moment she knew WI and Long Sin
were preparing and packing.
1t was a large trunk, and in 1t the
two willy Cinnamon were packing a
chair. as well as the phosphorus ma
chine.
Once Mistress Inez induces Elaine
to sit in this chair" observed WI, tap
ping 1t significantly as he closed the
trunk, half our work is completed"
Uptown Inez, always on guard, was
watching for the safe arrival of the
trunk, when she saw a messenger boy
coming up the steps of the house.
Perhaps. it flashed over her, it was
some message from Kennedy. She
must get it, whatever it was.
Without hesitating a moment she
slipped back into the library while the
boy was still at the door and wrote
a note of her own at the desk. She
had thought out beforehand just what
plan she was to adopt and the note
read:
Dear Miss Dodge:
The ladies' Of the First Baptist
church will send q collector for our
rummaoe sale this afternoon. We
thank you for whatever you can give
him. Yours truly,
Miss Ella Burns,
Secretary, Woman's Guild.
Inez read over the note she had
written herself as the messenger boy
continued ringing the bell impatiently.
Then she hurried into the hall to open
the door.
The boy came in and Inez took the
note he had brought. signing Elaine's
name for it in his book She had
acted not a moment too soon, for
Elaine had heard the bell and was
now coming downstairs herself.
WAS it anything for me, Inez?" she
asked.
Inez deity palmed the letter and
substituted the note she had written.
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1915-09-03

being prepared for Kennedy. The
note of warning regarding Elaine was
merely a first step in the entangle-
ment.
We were in the laboratory and
Craig was at work testing some chem
icals, about to pour q liquid from a
beaker into q test tube. He paused,
posing both in his hands. listening.
Outside we could hear what sounded
like a scratching at the door.
BE quiet Just a minute, Walter"
whispered Craig, moving on tiptoe
toward the door.
The fact was that . young China
man had crept up cautiously and was
crouching there in q position like
that of q runner about to start in q
race. Actually he was merely wait
ing for Kennedy to open the door,
but It looked as though he were listen
ing.
As Craig threw open the door he
started on like q racer. apparently
dropping piece Of paper in his hurry.
darted out after him. while Craig
stopped and picked up the paper. then
stood gazing after US.
Down the hall the young Chinaman
dashed until he came to the back en-
trance to the laboratory. There he
turned and crouched again in the
darkness.
A moment later I came after him.
As passed the door he seemed to
rise up Unexpectedly and I stumbled
headlong over him, almost stunned
as / hit the floor. He rose again
and criss-crossed around the corner
Of the building before / could pick my
self up. 1t was of no use now to
chase him further, and I limped back
into the laboratory.
He got away in spite Of me-" /
managed to blurt out as l rejoined
Kennedy in the hall. Whats that!"
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1915-09-03

yes. ma'am," she replied, handing
Elaine the faxed note.
Elaine read 1t. Il didn't know about
the rummage sale before" she COM
mented, as She went into the library,
but l guess I'll have to give them
something"
She sat down for q moment to look
over a new fashion magazine. Out
side in the hallway Inez was reading
the note which the messenger boy
had brought, with the warning post
script written by Kennedy under
meath. She knew, as she destroyed
it, that 1t was only q part Of Wu's
subtle plan to alarm Kennedy and
start him on q false scent.
1t was not many minutes later that
the bell rang again, and this time
Jennings answered the door, disclos-
ing the expressman with . heavy
trunk.
'Oh, I guess that's my trunk" Inez
exclaimed. May have 1t taken up to
the attic, out Of the way?"
The men carried the big trunk up
stairs into the attic, a large room full
Of trunks, some old furniture and a
great many old dresses hanging up.
As they set it down she signed the
receipt for it, and the expressmen
dumped downstairs.
For a moment she leaned over the
railing and looked after them to make
Sure that she was alone. then hastily
locked the door and ran back to the
trunk to unlock It.
First she took out the chair which
WI had devised and placed it near the
clothes hanging up. Next she re-
moved the phosphorus mechanism
and placed it in the shadow back
of the chair, piling up some excelsior
and other dry stun over and around It.
Inez had scarcely completed her
arrangements when it occurred to
