We have all heard of the five wise
and the five foolish virgins in con-
nection with the provision of oil. Tho
story has to be completely reversed
to fit the conditions of the decadent
times onto which we have fallen. Now
it is not wise to provide oil, but to
have none on hand, especially if you
are to deal with steamship lines. Word
has been received from three wise"
bachelors who put one over" on
lake steamer. These men, Ed Kellam,
Ned Osborn and Dan Hammatt, are
on a motor trip through the east, and
at Detroit, they loaded their car onto
the boat to take the lake trip. Now
it seems that these boats have
strange ruling. When the automobiles
are taken aboard, they are emptied of
all their gasoline, and then when they
are set ashore, about gallon and half
is given back to the driver-just
enough to give him little start. One
man, on his return trip on the boat,
had just put into the car a supply
of twelve gallons, only 70 have the
greater part OF it taken away from

BALLOTS TO BORDER
All Arrangements Completed for Re-
ceiving the Soldier Vote.

J. T. Botkin, secretary of state, to-
Gay sent poll books, tally sheets and
blank ballots to Eagle Pass for the use
Of the Kansas troops in the coming
primary. 1t will be impossible to ro-
tate the ballots for the various Kan
sas military units on the border. So
it was necessary to send merely blank
ballots and the Kansas soldiers must
write in the names of the candidates
for whom they wish to vote.
With the poll books, tally sheets and
blank ballots, Mr.. Botkin expressed a
number of lists of candidates, copies
of the election laws and Il blue print
showing the congressional, senatorial
and judicial districts of the state. For
lowing the election, the ballots will
be expressed to the secretary of state
by the soldier judges and after certifi-
cation of the secretary will be sent
to the respective counties of the vot-
ing soldiers for compilation by the
county clerk.

company of our Topeka travellers,
while he was still Tuning over his loss
He explained the situation to them,
and they profited richly by his coun-
sci. They knew how much gasoline
it would take for them to reach the
wharf, and when they replenished
their supply, they got just enough to
take them there. So well did their
calculations work out that the drain
ing of their gasoline talk was a sad
ceremony indeed to the steamship lire.
The five drops they extracted will
never in the world build up their
gasoline trade.

Fillets of Founders
By CONSTANCE CLARKE.

Q OLE is a popular. dish with the
~ English, and the French also es-
TEEN it highly.
The American founder, when fill
leted, is a delicious and inexpensive
dish. 1t is free of all bone and skin,
and the flesh is delicate and fine. The
founder lends itself to every method
of cooking that is given to sole. Fillets
of founders with green peas is an
appetizing way of preparing the fillets.
Take the fillets from the fish, re-
move the skin and any bones (if a
large one is used cut the fillets into
four pieces), place them on a wetted
board and pat them out smoothly with
thick wet knife; season the outside
of each fi1let with little salt and
White pepper, sprinkle lightly with
lemon juice, roll up the fillets, place
a skewer or wooden toothpick through
them to keep them together, and place
IN buttered saucepan. Sprinkle
them with lemon Juice. place but
