The |. C. Hot Pan Litter
Made by Ingram & Goldberg, 1000
Second Street, Juniata, Penn.

The great complaint made by prac-
teal housewives against many Of the
modern devices for tightening labor IS
that they are not sufficiently versatile.
Woman wants an implement that will
do half dozen different things If
possible. She hates to go to the trouble
of looking up new tool for every
separate thing she does.
This is why the l. G. Hot Pan Litter
should be popular. 1t is a two-in-one
tool, one end being designed to grip
hold of the pans and the other to lit
stove lids.
The design Of the serrated Jaws rem
ders the grip sure whether the dish
be Of glass, china or metal ware. 1t

Many a serious sprsin in the temper

that the disk raises the floats too high

Dexter Perfection Grapefruit and
Orange Set No. SO

Made by Harrington Cutlery Company
New York, y. Y.
This set consists of two sharp
knives made of good steel, nickel
plated. and with fat wooden handles
that are easily grasped. One knife IS
straight bladed and the other IS
curved. Any woman who prepares
grapefruit for the table will know how
to use them and why they make her
work much easier and leave the grape
fruit in better shape than when it IS
prepared with an ordinary knife.
The thin, flexible. keenedged blade
separates the pulp from the tough skin
between the sections and also from the
rind, without crushing the pulp or
scattering the juice. Only lovers OF
grapefruit can appreciate what tnat

garments - and tempers - from that

WHAT THE CABLEGRAM MEANT.

Governor Pinkham's cablegram to the war
department yesterday expressed the willing
ness of the National Guard of Hawaii to per
form such duty, if any, as thedepartment sees
fit to ask of it. The war department knows
quite as well as anyone else what duty the mill
tia is able to undertake ~.
In sending his cablegram, the governor
merely voices the patriotic sentiment of Hawaii
and the guard to the war department at a time
when the militia of border states are called on
for patrol work There will be no such misin-
depreciation of his cablegram in Washington
as is evident in this mornings paper.
When the first troops were ordered into
Mexico, state after state came forward offering
the service of its militia Illinois, we believe,
was the first and the entire state took pride in
the fact that it was the first. The offers were
not made in vainglorious spirit but merely
to express the willingness of the state troops
to do what they might be called upon to do;
and at time when peaee-at-any- price advo-
