he extracted a bit OF cardboard from

In his uneasy frame of mind, Els
worth began to think that his waiter
was growing suspicious of him. Every
time the waiter drew near, Ellsworth
had a spell of the creeps. Now he
brought Ellsworth's check, left it,
melted away, stayed away a while,
returned, coughed shifted the check
the one-thousandth part of an inch,
withdrew, and at last approached once
more.
Just as he did so that pretty girl
leaned towards her escort, and said
something to him that made him put
down his glass, get unsteadily to his
feet, and wabble over to startled Els
worth.

said, "but my friends know you:

with sweet smile, as he swayed gently
to and fro. "Awf'ly fine of you to be
so modest, y know. But you see we
knOs0 you, we do, an you simply got
to come over"
He turned toward his own table.
Here" he giggled, ''the lion refuses
t. be a lion. Come on m make IN

The girl whose eyes had so often met
those of Ellsworth rose in a flash and
Joined the men. Ellsworth sprang to
his foot "a Sbe addressed him

81 regret it most sincerely, but 1

The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1916-12-09

murmured Ellsworth, his face crimson,
and his words stumbling over one
another; "but you see my name is
Ellsworth, not Lockwood, and l really
am nobody at alI-distinetly nobody"
How charming of you" rejoined the
girl, laughing merrily 81 suppose
I should respect your wish for privacy;
but l happen to be in a most stubborn
mood tonight, so you'll please come
along peaeeably.'
Ellsworth opened his mouth once
or twice like a goldfish making bubbles
in an aquarium, but no words came
forth. The girl, suddenly leaning to-
wards his table, thrust his dinner-check
swiftly towards her escort.
"That's yours. Take it !" she COM
handed q Mr. Lockwood has been our
guest all evening though he didn't
know it until now"
Suddenly comprehending what she
had done, Ellsworth made a deter
mined effort to capture the paper;
but the grinning WARBLER held firmly
to it, and the girl was battling.
"No, Mr.. Lockwood" she decided,
firmly, 81 am eccentric and daring,
as you see. Now don't say anything,
but sit down."
"Tha's right, Lockwood, OF chap"
put n the amiable second, "come On I"
And he almost hauled Ellsworth into
the extra chair that a waiter showed
to that enchanted table.
When Ellsworth finally rose with
them, it was still as " Mr.. Lockwood,
in spite of his efforts to prove his
identity, and with his bill paid by the
fond youth of many drinks, who con-
sidered the paying privilege. And,
moreover, he rose under an order

c. F. Older Declares Tanlac,
New Medicine, Worked Won

Minneapolis, Mimi, July 4, 1916.
C. F. Older, an attache of the Denver
Hotel in this city, is one of the hundreds
of residents of Minneapolis and vicinity,
who praise Tanlac as the best of all re-
NEEDLES and regard the Master Medicine
as the one source of relief from their
troubles. He said:
II suffered from stomach trouble in
the form OF Indigestion and also con-
stipation. My appetite was poor and
what l ate did not agree with me. NV
stomach soured often and gas formations
bothered me. l was losing weight
rapidly.
Tanlac surely has worked wonders in
my case. l can digest my food properly
now and | have hearty appetite. I
am no longer bothered with the sour
stomach and the gas accommodations have
disappeared. Tanlac is the best medi-
cine ever tried in my life.''
Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is
especially beneficial for stomach, liver
and kidney troubles, catarrhal COM
plants, rheumatism, nervousness, Sleep

Tanlac is now being specially intro

GOPHERS BLANK GONZAGAS.
Both Pitchers Throw Good Ball
But Support Fails
Cuentner.

What would have been one of the best
pitchers battles witnessed by the fans
this year was spoiled by numerous errors,
most of them costly, by the Gonzaga
team. In spite of the good twirling done
by Guentner, of the Gonzagas, who
struck out 16 men and allowed but four
hits, they lost the game by 40 count,
Huevelmann also pitched good article
of ball allowing but two hits and getting
five men. However he had seven
determined men behind him and these,
as can be seen by looking over the box
score, folded perfectly. Forster, the
lanky first baseman for the Gophers,
saved several of his teammates from
errors by making high stabs for the ball.
! Of the twenty-seven putouts, fifteen were
on first, six on home and the remaining
six divided between short, third and left
field. Several exciting instances were
furnished when the base runners of the
Gonzaga team tried to steal, two men
being caught off third and one off home.
In the very first inning it looked as if
the Gophers would score when Burk hit
a nasty grounder to Eichten, hitting him
on the tip of his shoe, but when he came
to third on passed ball and a wild
pitch, Guentner frightened up and famed
two, the next man flying out to center
field. In the second inning Arndt was
safe when first dropped the ball. The
next two men tried hard to connect
but failed to do so. Muesing, the next
man up, hit beeliner to Tauer, who
failed to hold it, Arndt scoring. Mues-
ing took second on bad throw and
scored on Huevelmann's hit. Burk
ended the inning by tanning.
The next score came in in the fifth
inning. Huevelmann got scratch hit
stealing second and scoring on a passed
ball. The three men batting after him
were unable to find the ball, all three
being whitfield out. Again in the eighth
inning the Gophers scored, making their
fourth and last run. A base on balls
a single anda ielder's choice, in which
the runner was safe by small margin,
doing the work.
OF the four hits secured by the Gophers
three were made by Huevelmann, the
fourth being credited to Lindemann.
Guentner and Herzog were the only men
on the Gonzaga team that were able to
get a safe hit, the former getting triple
and the latter single.
The Gonzagas, altho practically at the
mercy of Huevelmann, were able to get
several men on bases, but they were
caught before they reached home.
One thing that greatly pleased the fans
was the true craftsmanship shown by
the teams and the impartial decisions
made by the umpires, taltho several of
the fans jokingly called the Jumps"
down.
This game was one of a series of games
to be played for a side purse of fifty
dollars which has been put up by the
players. The date for the next game
has not been scheduled but when it is
played the fans should turn out as the
contests are sure to be hummers.

The Value OF ONIONS

To many people the onion repre-
sents nothing more than an odorous
and vulgar accompaniment TO a fried
beefsteak. a liking for which is not
admissible in polite society In truth,
the onion holds sway with beef ex-
tract n the highest type Of cooking, in
which the favoring OF dishes and
sauces is a science A dish that tastes
Of onions would hardly have place
in the haute cuisine OF France; on
the other hand. there is probably no
meat or vegetable dish without some
subtle flavor Of onion in II.
II is the abuse Of the onion that is
responsible for any prejudice against
t. Green salads. for instance. are too
delicats TO carry the undiluted flavor
of onion, yet little touch Of it is
necessary to give piquancy and life to
such a salad. This can be obtained
by rubbing the bowl with a slice Of
onion, or by tossing the salad with an
onion and removing 1t before serving.
The leek Of the onion family is a
vegetable which deserves more con-
slderation than IL receives from the
hands Of the. average housekeeper Not
as strong as the onion, II is better
adapted for soups and boiled through
two waters. and served either hot
with butter, or cold with French or
mayonnaise dressing, many people
ind II as delicious as the expensive
asparagus.
FOOD VALUE.
In French cooking the garlic Is less
considered than the onion proper. but
IFS use is indicated in certain dishes
The leg Of lamb or mutton when ready
for the oven has a single pod of gar
lie slipped under the skin of the mar
row end. For certain bitter salads,
such as chicory, the bowl Is rubbed
with garlic. or the leaves are tossed
with a Glove Of garlic before serving
From the dietetic point Of view thA
onion Is most valuable, for II is highly
nutritious and contains in addition
important mineral salts. The dried
root contains from 25 to 30 per cent.
OF gluten OF the nine essential min
eral oils the onion pEivides us with
Iron, calcium, potassium, PHOSPHORUS,
silicon and sulphur. To get the value
Of these minerals. however the onion
must be eaten raw, or steamed, or
baked, in its own juice. The common
fashion Of boiling it. and discarding
the water largely dimlnishes its value.
The boiled onion is often unpalata-
Bile though even TO those who desire
the beneficial food value It contains.
One way to overcome this is to sea-
son with an extra amount OF pure
cream and butter. much less ex-
pensive and more effective way is TO
serve with a cream sauce favored
with beef extract.
