CAN NOW FOR WINTER USE
Time Spent in Preparing Vegetables
viii Be Found Well Worth While
When Cold Weather Comes.

Whole tomatoes, green peppers and
the thought suggest q pleasant .depar-
ture from too much meat in the diet?
Every woman on the farm should
can surplus fruits and vegetables dur
ing the summer months for winter use,
according to Miss Addie D. Root of the
Missouri College of Agriculture. By so
doing, the cost of valuable food will
be decreased and meals during the win
ter will be made more appetizing.
Fruits and vegetables give variety to
the diet and supply certain food mate
rials which are necessary to maintain
health. They do not leave us in need
Of a spring tonic.
In the day of our grandmothers the
canning of vegetables was little under
stood and results were seldom success.
full. We know today that foods spoil
from the action of small organisms
called bacteria, which float in the air
around us and we know how to kill
them. If these are killed in the process
of canning and the jars sealed air.
tight, food will keep indefinitely. Diff
ferent kinds of bacteria are found in
different kinds of foods. Some kinds
require higher temperature to kill
them than others and for this reason
some fruits and vegetables must be
cooked longer than others during the
canning process.
For the beginner the water-bath can
ner Is recommended rs the simplest
form. It can be arranged in any home
with but small expense. 1t consists Of
containing vessel with a rack and a
cover. A wash boiler may be used. A
rack may be made of thin boards or
heavy wire. 1t should be raised three
fourths of an inch from the bottom of
the boiler or enough so that water can
circulate freely under the jars. This
prevents the jars from getting too hot.
Water should be an inch over the tops
Of the jars.
Before placing the Jars in the boiler,
screw the top down as tightly as pos
sblc with thumb and little finger. If
screwed too tightly, expansion will
cause the jars to break. The cans are
removed most easily by means of
can litter.
Miss Root has recently issued cir
cular containing directions for canning
all the common fruits and vegetables.
It can be secured by writing to the Mis-

ECONOMY IN SUMMER WEAR
Cleaning and coloring, if Properly Done, Will Save Many a Dollar
 for Other Necessities.

There are two things to do to ar- ticles solled or faded by the ravages of summer-dust, bleaching sun, per- spiration and salt water. One. clean them; two. color them. Of course. If the color Is actually faded out cleaning will hardly do any good. Often, how ever, things that are apparently faded are only badly soilcd, and thorough cleaning is all that they need.
 The market ia full of cleaners and colorers of various sorts So if you have a soiled white straw hat. first try cleaning 1t with some bottled or boxed preparation and then, If 1t remains soiled looking. try coloring it with some other preparation.
 So, too. if white frock or blouse seems yellowish or grayish, boil il first in water to which q little washing soda is added. If 1t bleaches nicely. well and good. If not. get some dye and dye 1t to some pretty shade of pink or blue.
 Rag rugs that have been washed so many times that they are losing their color can be satisfactorily dyed. The color in them will modify the color of the dye, to some extent. SD count on that when you are choosing the color to dye them.
 There are many satisfactory hat dyes with which straw hats can be colored easily in almost any shade. Follow the explicit directions always given with these commercial coloring liquids to get the best results.
 For faded pink lingerie, remember. there are bottles of pink liquid to re- store it's original hue. A few drops of red ink to 2 howl of water, too, will brighten piD1 lingerie, and so will lit tie red dye well diluted with water.

SMOKERS IN DICKENS WORKS
Great Novelist Had Many of His Char acters Use Tobacco in C1e
 Form or Another.

The 'cigarettes" mentioned by Dick ems in 1S57 were brown paper cigars" an informant writes ts the London Chronicle, und were evidently rolled by hand in the fushion not unknown tl- day, though r2ddly being superseded by the macidne-made article.
 In the first chapter of Little Dor rit," written in 1857, the villain Riguad in his jail at Marseilles has tobacco brought to him with his rations and he rolls it into cigarettes by the aid of little squares of paper which had been brought in with it." The scene. by the way, Is dated by Dickens thirty years ago" Whether the paper wns white or brown does not appear, but Il seems clear enough that the smokes in ques- ton, thus rolled in n prison cell, had more likeness to the modern cigarette than to cigar, although the novelist sometimes calls them little paper cigars.
 Little Dorrit," think, adds the cor respondent. k the first of the novels In which the word cigarette" appears, although pipes and cigars are frequent ly mentioned, usually in the mouths of the morally less admirable characters. Montague Tigg and Chevy Slyme both move in an atmosphere in which tobac- co is added to frowSiness. Rogue Riderhoods rascality Is heightened by his use of pipe, and the depth of Quilp's inhumanity Is emphasized by his abilities in the way of what Is now called "chain smoking" with cigars, while he swallows boiling rum from pannikin kept on the fire. Eugene Wrayhurn's languid likeness is solaced by cigars. but correct characters. such as John Harmon, never touch what Tony Weller calls the fragrant weed.'

AMONG THE CHURCHES

Next Sunday is Worlds Temper snce Sunday and special opening exercise will be used in the Bible School and an offering for the Lincoln Lee Legion, the Anti-Saloon League of America.
 Don't forget the Noaccount- Money wedding in the chapel at o'clock on Friday evening, the 10th. Everybody is cordially invited. Wedding gifts of any size, shape or description will be gratefully accepted. These will be auetiGned of at the close of the cere- mony to defrsy expenses.
 Attractive window cards, a promis- ing program, an unusually pleasant afternoon and evening, and an efficient committee combined to make the Christmas sale and supper one of the best and the most literally patronized of any similar function of the Ladies' Social Circle. The decorations in the chapel fully met the suggestions Of the advertisements and the display of re. minders of sea scenes and fisher folks not to mention the somewhat weird and ferocious characters with their wares and tempting parcels made the scene one that will be long remember ed. At o'clock the company gather ed about the tables in the assembly room and showed a hearty apprecia- ton of the viands set before them and be laid, relaid and laid again. The en- tertninment that followed the supper was In the form of pantomimes Illus trsting two ballads, "The modern and medieval ballad of Mary Jane" and "The ballad of the oyster man. pThis feature of the evening was novel and thoroughly enjoyed by company that filled the chapel to it's utmost capacity. We gre not able at this writing to name the financial returns but they were exceedingly gratifying.
 Misses Harriet 1nman and Josephine Clifford, C. D. Sharpe, c. k. Child and the pastor represented our Bible School at the state meeting that was held in Hartford this week. The addresses of Dr. Dorchester and Miss Margaret Slatteriy were attractive features. Some s2500 were pledged for the support of the association for the coming year which is $200 more than was received at similar conventions one and two years ago. A report of the convention will be given by the delegates in the near future.
 Last Thursday the series of Teacher Treining lessons under the direction of Frank Barber were brought to close. While the attendance has not been large the course has been appreciated by those who did attend and good will undoubtedly follow the study.
 At joint meeting of the Church snd Ecclesiastical Society committees it was unanimously voted to recommend to the Society to discontinue the pew | rental system and with free pews de- pend upon the freewill offerings of the | people to meet the current expenses.
