The Nezperce herald. (Nezperce, Idaho) 1900-1957, 1916-08-17

Recently we received a letter
from an old friend at Nezperce
which stated that the afore-
said friend would be candidate
for the office Of secretary Of state.
The letter was only a surprise at
first thought, for the writer,
Chaneey Wallace, was at the time
of our acquaintance a very young
man, with a family Of three small
children, struggling against the
poverty and hardships Of a new
country. But when we stopped to
think; the same indomitable eOur-
age which would help man thru
those days would also help him TO
keep on aspiring and keep on
struggling to achieve and we see
no reason why a man with the
stick-tO-itivness and ability OF
Chancey Wallace should not go to
the top, and we believe he will.
chancey is a very active Republic
IAN but has worked on the Nez-
Derce Herald "a democratic sheet
until he has soaked up quite a few
sensible ideas, at least we hope so.
Any way we wish him success

monthly bills, knowing that no
real service had been performed
for the state,
In the matter OF dismissing Mr..
Hale as register he voted for the
dismissal, while saying that Mr..
Hale was a good, competent man
and giving no excuse for his vote.
When a storm of protest came in
he FASTENED to vote to reinstate
Mr.. Hale, thus showing that he
had no good reason to vote against
him in the first place, or having
one was willing TO subordinate it
to political expedieney. But as a
matter of fact he did not have
one. and no one yet knows why
he was guilty of so grave an in
justice. Many more instances of
this lack of firnness and strength
of character might be cited. but
these are sufficient to show the
necessity of another candidate.
The Leader-Herald believes Mr..
Wallace measures up to the place.
This is the report that comes from
the north where he is best known.
That he viii receive strong sup
port in Canyon county is a GER
tainty and that seems to be true
of the whole state, partly because
of the character and standing of
Mr.. Wallace and partly because of
the determination of the public to
have a new land board from top to
bottom.-Nampa Leader-Herald.
We noticed last week by the
Idaho papers that Chaneey Wal
lace, of Nezperce, has announced
himself a candidate for the office
Of secretary of state. We hope
the Idaho press and politicians
viii forgive US if we mix in this
matter in Chaneey's behalf. To
make a long story short, we
found" Chancey on the Kamiah
grade, selling watermelons, some
fifteen years ago and, being hard
pressed, hired him for a printer.
He soon demonstrated to us that
he knew his business, in fact, he
delivered the goods " After
four years with us on the old I

trail committeeman Of old Nez-
perez, we urged his appointment /

perez and so thoroughly did he

ports were accepted by the gov
eminent as received and with the

ever came back for correction.

Dogs to Match.

NNY HEN the fashionable woman
Wv changes her frock she also
changes her dog. At least. this seems
to be the case with a number of society
leaders whose doings at the famous
summer colonies are always matters of
general interest.
One fashion leader appears with an
advanced autumn street frock Of wool
velour. that looks charming against
the golden-brown hue of this lovely
woman's hair. Her hat is Of brown
trimmed with golden flowers. and, of
course, the spaniel she carries now on
her arm and now tucked under her
arm Is Of the same tone of golden
brown.
But do not imagine that this golden
brown beauty is tho constant compan-
ion Of this lady's promenades. Had she
chosen to wear a dark-brown velour
walking frock she would have taken a
brown chow, and had she gone forth
in black and white striped sport ap-
parel she would have selected a par
ticularly nobby little fox terrier, whose
black and white patches accentuated
the striking points OF her own costume.
For occasions when the fashionable
dog lover wears soft white frocks she
must have a small. white, fuzzy lapdog.
which, however, would never do for oc-
castons when she chooses to wear white
sport clothes on sitter lines. For then
the little helpless lapdog would not be
at all appropriate, and though she wants
must have one of brisker appearance
and would probably choose a west
Highland terrier or white English
bulldog.

Pictorial Negliges.

IN the last few months the smart
shops have made strong effort to in
troduce original house robes. They
have gone to Venice and to Moscow
for their Inspiration.
There are negliges that look as
though they had been ilched from the
stage of the Russian ballet, and there
are others that could easily be worn in
a more formal manner.
That which is known as the wrapper
is dead. The calico Mother Hubbard
of practical life has absolutely no place
in the modern finery. Even with her
simplest combing sack, the bride-elect
sees to it that it is touched with artis-
try, frivolity and originality.
The outpourings of the shops today
in matinee, sleeping sacks and break
fast gowns allure the most economical
and conservative women to their win
dows.
One of the attractive negliges made
for an October bride is of white chiffon
lined with flesh pink chiffon and
edged with wide bands of white mara
bou. 1t is girdled above the waist with
large pink roses. from which fall at
one side loops and ends of natter blue
velvet ribbon.
There are no sleeves to this neg1ige,
but the long kimono armholes cover the
top part of the arm. This is an example
of what is considered correct and fash
ionable today for ones own room

headgear which is neither cap nor

ton from each. It is made of fine

Use Bread Crumbs.

MICE some potatoes. cook until half
" done. then add an equal quantity of
diced stale bread. This is good plan
when you are short on potatoes.
If your bacon is not plentiful you can
stretch the dish by dicing stale bread and
frying with it The bread absorbs the
fat and acquires a bacon taste.
Either broken bits of bread or bread
crumbs may be made into griddle cakes
You can stretch creamed chicken. Cut
off the crustS from small loaf OF stale
bread. scoop out the inside until about
half an inch of wall is left. butter it all
over. set in the oven until a light brown.
Bread crumbs in the proportion of
half a cupful to pound of chopped
meat will also help you to make your.
meat loaf or croquettes go farther.
Fine bread crumbs may be used in,
stead of -four for thickening gravies..
They add flavor and there is no danger
of big Jumps They may also be used.
in thickening all kinds of soups.

Bread crumbs may be substituted for

dried crumbs and soak them until soft.

Guiding crusts. The crumbs add light :.
ness to the dish and are not easily de :.

Leftover mullins. even when quite
stale, make nice little baskets in which
to serve eggs. Cut them in two. scoop
out part of the centers. drop ana egg
into each half and put them in thes
oven until the eggs set. A cover may,
be made to the basket by making a.
paste of grated cheese and milk and
spreading around the top.
Stale brown bread cut into small
squares. lightly Drowned, in the oven,
and eaten with sugar and cream, is .
good substitute for p cereal.

! A Campaign Against Flies.-My ex-
perience with fighting flies has been
mainly confined to the problem from the
point Of view Of a private home, but I
am sure that the following suggestions
will be of help either in a house or a
restaurant. 1t is taken for granted that
doors and windows are well screened
and that everything about the premises
is kept with absolute cleanliness My
install several electric fans. for flies
will not remain where there Is a strong
draft
The garbage pail should be scrubbed
daily with broom and hot suds and
kept closely covered. If garbage can
be burned instead of being kept in a
can. that is better still.
The Care Of Food.-AH food should
be kept under covers.
Cloths should be kept under the stone
covers OF crooks and Jars containing
food.
Net cloths should cover fish and meat
till they can be dressed.
All papers soiled with groceries or
meat are to be burned instantly before
flies can get at them.
All dishes. cups and spoons used IN
cooking must be placed at once in a pan
OF cold water.
Crumbs and dust of sugar and -four
must be Immediately scraped up.
Rooms must be kept well aired.
We have never used anything except
sticky and poisonous fly paper to get
rid of the flies but we have read of the
following methods, which we think
would be OF help to you:
Quickly to Clean the Room Where There
Are Many Flies-Burn pyrethrum pow
der. This stupefes the flies. which may
then be swept up and burned.

Lightly brushing the tips of these
points and floating away to the

The mules are of flesh pink corded

Gorgeous Colors for the House.
For the same trousseau, there is an
other neglige made of white lierre,
draped over American beauty satin.
In this the arms and neck are also
bare, but there is a comfortable
shoulder cape which keeps one from
catching pneumonia
This cape is caught at the bust with
an American beauty rose, and the lace
which falls away from the high waist
line has two long points at the back
which are weighted with crystal tas-
sells.
Along with this negIige go silk
stockings of American beauty pink and
cloth of silver bedroom slippers.

In its original form the cape was not

In preparing for a weeks camping
trim MANY things are to be taken into
consideration Is the food to be car
ried by wagon, canoe, on horseback
or on your own back, as they do in the
| north?
! Another important question Is whether
you are to be on the march, or If 1t Is
to be what Rocky Mountain people call
a permanent camp. In the west the
water has to be planned for, but in the
east there is plenty enough in any OF
the good camping places
It must be borne in mind that camp
cooking is totally different from house
cooking; many exceedingly good cooks
cannot make the simplest thing In
camp. Nearly all recipes are changed
and the proportions are appalling to one
who is used to indoor work.

so many are its guises. so subtle lis its
influence, that there is no danger that 1T
will soon return TO the oblivion that har-
bors fashions when they are unfashion-
able.
The neckwear pictured in the sketch
gives vivid proof that the cape is the
dominant influence of the season in fash
ionable collars. And the neckwear pic
tured Is typical of the smart neckwear of
the autumn. 1t shows some Of the models
that have been accepted by the men in
this country who make neckwear-models
that they will duplicate and will soon
have ready for the shops to offer to all
Of US.
The sailor collar, which stands well
up against the hair at the back of the
neck, is as smart as the cape collar.
Young girls at the beaches this summer
have been adapting the sailor or other
large collars Of their morning froclks-of
Bingham, pongee. linen or other fabric
In most patriotic manner. They have
cut bias strip. perhaps twelve inches
wide and as long as one wishes, OF the
material OF their various morning frocks,
and have pulled the collars close about
their necks. using the strip Of fabric ban

quite effective.

GIVE PLACE TO 1ANDKERCHEFS

MOT very long ago the idea was that
AN the well-bred woman and the woman
Of good taste did not care for colored or
ornate handkerchiefs. Although there
may still be any number of women of
extreme refinement who feel that the
handkerchief that is striking because of
its color or originality is not in the best
Of taste. most of US have changed our
minds We simply can't resist the temp
tation. The handkerchief that is a little
out OF the ordinary gives us just one
moro way Of expressing our mood or our
personality in clothes and we would fain
refuse to sieze upon the opportunity.
For the girl whose heart is off on the
border with the national guardsmen. or
for the girl who is camping the new camp
handkerchief is extremely interesting. 1t
Is made Of silk in exactly the shade of
brown that the khaki uniform of the SOL
der boys Is made Of. It is neatly hem
stitched, slightly larger than the regula-
ton woman's handkerchief. washable. of
course, and only 15 cents in price. The
advantage of these handkerchiefs for
ing and no one is the wiser If they do
remain stained by fruit eaten in the
course of the days camping.
Crepe de chine handkerchiefs in various
light or pastel shades are extremely at
tractive. The only trouble with them is
that If they have to undergo the same
hard usage to which most handkerchiefs
have to submit they soon lose their color
and become hateful dirty white in hue.
Many young women, however, are willing
to wash their own handkerchiefs in cool
water and bland soap for the sake of
having them retain their original color.
Colored linen handkerchiefs are also
extremely attractive, and many of these
instead of being hemstitched are sim
ply rolled by hand at the edges. The roll
ing is fastened twice into place so that
there is a line of stitches going first in
one direction and then In the other.
Many of the new handkerchiefs show
quaint little embroidered designs at the
corners, and though the most fastidious
women do probably prefer either their
own initial or a monogram, there are al
ways some women who prefer these
quaint embroidered chickens, turtles and
flowers.
Many women delight to make their own
fancy handkerchiefs. and perhaps the
most attractive finish that can be at
tempted is this that had its origin in
the converts Of Europe. which Is simply
a double-fastened roll. The square of
linen should be cut only very little
larger than the desired size of the hand
kerchief. The edges should be then rolled
carefully between the thumb and finger
