The Table.


Sunk Similar to buttermilk but
much more delicious and nourishing.
1t is made by. putting fresh un-
skinned milk in an air-tight jar and
keeping in a warm place till clabbered,
then removing to a cold place till
wanted, when it is whipped with an
egg beaten till creamy.
Bran Coffee-One quart of bran
mixed thoroughly with two table
spoons of baking molasses. Brown
slowly in oven. Use one tablespoon
for each cup of coffee wanted. Boil
twenty minutes.
Peanut Butter Soup-Three cups
milk, one cup water, one-half cup pea
nut butter, one teaspoon salt. one
half teaspoon nutmeg, one tablespoon
cornstarch, pepper. While the milk
is heating mix the peanut butter with
hot water until smooth, than add to
boiling milk. mix the cornstarch with
little cold milk. add to hot milk, add
salt. pepper, nutmeg, Doll three min
utes. Serve.
Dresser Trays-Buy at the ten cent
store small picture frame which has
depth; buy also two handles and
screws. Insert under the glass pretty
cretonne or a bit of crocheted lace
with silk backing, in place of the pic
ture originally in the frame. This
makes a pretty pin tray for the dress
er. By adding a larger frame for
brush and comb tray, you have as
pretty set as one could desire.

THE POWER OF SPRING.

THE POWER OF SPRING.
Sisters busy shopping,
Mothers cleaning house,
Daddy comes when all is still,
As quiet as a mouse
Uncle's beating carpets,
Auntie's chasing germs.
Fish are biting in the lake
And Johnny's digging worms.

SCOOP" TURNER TELLS
OF JAPAN ADVERTISING

| America has even made chewing gum
! and prepared breakfast food seem a
daily necessity, has taken firm grip
on commercial Japan, where not many
years ago the idea of publicity was
limited to small signs displayed by
shop owners in front of their stores.
But industry has been making rapid
progress in the empire. and with its
advancement has come the realization
that dividends can be considerably
increased by informing the people just
how Indispensable this or that article
may be. In recent years advertising
agencies have sprung up in Japan, the
billboard has made its appearance,
street car interiors display the WON
ders of everything from sake" to
monographs, advertisers have increas-
ed their space in the newspapers and
even Mt. Full, held sacred by the JAP
anese for centuries, bears at its crest
some bold advice on the effectiveness
of a certain medicine for women's
ailments.
1t is considerable of a jar on the
nerves of the worshipping Japanese,
after spending his time and energy
climbing the sacred mountain that he
may pay homage to the shrine at the
summit, to be confronted with SUCH a
worldly thing as a patent medicine
advertisement.
Disguised W. hthis. he may choose
to tour thr beautiful Kiso
Mountain. japanese Alps.
Here, in the -ags and cliffs,
the last place ,rld where one |
would expect trace of the |
hand of man, is d on the side of |
a precipice the glories of a certain |
cough cure
Or he may seek the shrine at Miya-
jims, an island in the Inland Sea, |
one of the nations three |
leading beauty spots, but there. too,
his pilgrimage will be interrupted by |
not one, but many, boastful claims for
the nations products.
Modesty is a factor not always
found in the Japanese advertisements,
nor are the claims always backed by
the goods. The art is growing. how
ever: the Japanese have come under
the spell of the printed page and the
lurid billboard-that have been con-
vinced that it pays to advertise.

The following news story, written
by Ralph H. Turner, former editor OF
the Daily Missourian, is reprinted
from the Japan Advertiser, CTokyo),
of August 9. In a letter to The Mis-
sourian Turner says:
"The next time an advertiser doubts
whether the people read the ads in
the Missourian, you tell 'em that they
It least read them in Japan. I'm sure
that there's one individual over here
that carefully peruses every line, not
that he wants to purchase any of their
wares-simply because he's about
1000 miles from the old town fianked
by the shoe factory on the north and
the golf links on the south.
mo, I'm not homesick-but | have
a hankering to know what they're
going to do to Rastus Finney. what
time the Missourian's going to press,
whether the Saturday night lunches at
the Greasy Spoon still have the same
old lure and many other questions of
vital importance"

ALLIED PEACE TERMS DRASTIC
Complete Crushing of TeutOn Influ-
ence Is Determined On.

Complete Crushing of Teut0n Influ.
ence Is Determined On.
By United Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-The Al
lies are talking among themselves
more drastic peace terms than ever
before hinted at Here are some of
the demands likely to be made of
Germany:
The ceding to England of Heligo-
land
Naturalization of the Kiel Canal.
The demolition of some of the
strongest Notifications on the Ger
man border
This list Of demands was obtained
today by the United Press from an Of
ficial in close touch with Allied SEN
timent both in this country and in
England.
The desire to see Germany "abso-
lutely crushed" leads some to pro-
pose even harsher terms than those
listed. In order to break down the
power of centralized Germany, it is
said these men are in favor of offer
ing lenient peace terms to adjoining
states willing to sever their political
connection with the empire.
The main concern of the Allies is
not how long the war will last but
how thoroughly Germany can be con-
quered. the United Press informant
said.

bishop. aud the rights Of any part OF
the ministry.
"In 1908, when these rights were rec
ognized as on par with the rights Of
the pastors, the church was paying
S6OS 900 a year to claimants. leaving
shortage OF $1.2O000O, for which no
provision was made. The Board OF
Conference Claimants Immediately be-
gan a campaign Of publicity and laid
the nature and size OF this obligation
upon the heart of the church. The re-
suit has been that instead of paying
s6OS 900 a year, as i'm 1908, the year
Just closed the church has paid to-
tai of Si,225 .226, or more than double;
and the church is now facing the joy
ful problem Of proving an additional
income of more than 100000, so that
i'm this great obligation, as in the
other obligations. Methodism may be
clear on the books. While rejoicing
that since 1908 the annual income has
more than doubled, Methodism Is de-
termined that this annual revenue
must be increased at least One-half
and that the balance sheet between the
church's obligation and the church's
resources shall he a clean one. The
resources Of Methodism applied to this
problem are Of three kinds: First, gen
eral or correctional dividends; sec
Ond. dividends from investments held
by the annual conferences; third, di-
rect annual contributions from sew
eral pastoral charges to meet an ap-
determined by the dis
cipline and fixed by the annual con
ference.
Methodism has a most unique and
valuable institution in its book con-
cern. the largest publishing establish
ment on earth, and the dividends from
this business do not go to the stock
holders. but to the retired ministers
and widows and orphans. The annual
revenue from this source is now $780,

"The charter fund is the oldest in
stitutiOn of MethOdism. more than a
century and a third old. a small fund
accumulated in the early days of
Methodism, the income of which for
more than a century has gone to ease
the burden OF the retired ministers.
"The Board OF Conference Claim
ants is a new institution with an an
nual dividend of about $4,000, but
with large functions related to the
work in annual conference throughout
the church.
For sixty years or more annual
have held invested funds
under their own control, the income Of
which has been distributed to their
own claimants The present cam
paign for an increase in these funds
has brought the amount so held up to
the magnificent sum of over S5,OOO,OOO,
and almost every conference in Meth
odism is now engaged in campaign
TO secure sufficient money for invest
ment to enable it to make provision for
all the future and provide a sufficient
and honorable care for every retired
minister. The sum total Of the
amounts needed for annual conference
investments is in excess Of S16,OOO,-
OO0. S6,000,000 of which is now in
hand. and campaigns are now deter
mined or prosecuted in the several an
nual conferences to cover the addi-
tional S1O,O00,000.
