FISHER RUNS GENERAL
MEAT AND GROCERY STONE

Mike Fisher has been associated
with the business life of Crested
Butte for the past twenty years.
Formerly engaging in the saloon busi-
ness, when the state went dry Mr.
Fisher decided to keep on as bust
ness man in the community. Closing
out his former stock, Mr.. Fisher re-
stocked the business as a grocery
store with meat shop in correction.
A standard line of groceries and
fresh fruits are to be had at Fishers
at all times and prices are as low as
possible consistent with good quality
goods. The butcher shop is in
charge of competent man, and the
modern corveniences installed make
it possible to handle a large trade
easily and to give service in both
and smoked meats.
Mr.. Fisher operates a pool hall in
part of his building and in addition
to the amusement tables, carries a
line of soft drinks, candies and SO
forth.

aUNNIsON GIVES BOYS
A ROUSINo SEND OFF

With banners flying and the band
playing Gunnison turned out We'd
nesday evening to give the boys a
rousing send-off, and to show in a
small measure their appreciation of
what the boys were doing.
The men went TO the depot early,
where a picture was taken of them
for The Gunnison Empire. Nearer
train time the High School band
marched through the street and to
the depot playing some rousing airs,
and upon reaching there continued
their concert until the train pulled
with the boys aboard. who were pre-
sented with cigars and button-hole
bouquets of flowers by the ladies'.
Though there were many moist
eyes in the crowd, spirit of cheer
fulness prevailed and the boys will
carry with them the memory of their
friends wishing them pleasant
journey and God Speed.

LOCAL MEN APPEAR FOR
PHYSICAL ExANIN aTION

Crested Butte was we'll represented
at the physical examination for the
draft army held Mt Gunnison the lat
ter part of last week. Charles Guer-
rieri, Matt Stayduhsus, Pster Camp
bell, John Comforti, Raffele FAlsetto,
Frank Kuretich, Frank Bailey. Earl
Daub, Jos. Gaughan. John Grancie and
James Arnott appeared for examina-
tion as called, and we understand
with the exception of Charles Guer-
rieri, all passed the examination. 1t
will be recalled that Charlie Guerrieri
was severely burned at the coke
ovens and it was necessary to graft
a considerable amount of skin to
save his life, the effects of these
burns was directly responsible for
the rejection on physical examina-
tion.

To remove blood, wash in cold
water until stain turns brown, then
add teaspoonful of turpentine to
the water and rub briskly.
When you begin rinsing clothes on
cold wash day, empty the clothes
pins into a large pan anu place them
in the oven. With clothespin apron
full of hot pins hall the dread of q
cold wash day is gone, for speedy
plunge into the warm depths of the
apron keeps the hands warm and
comfortable.
If the oven of a gas range is en-
clined to rust sprinkle lime on a
board and place it in the oven after
baking. 1t will absorb all steam and
prevent rust from forming.
To keep apples from turning brown,
pare with silver knife, put in bowl
and cover with wet napkin and place

four feet long, not too heavy and
about two inches wide. Nail a cross

Household Helps

II the ironing board is placed at a
higher level than an ordinary kitchen
table, you will be delighted to find
how much less tiresome the ironing

For frosted fingers or toes the
soreness may be much relieved by
prompt treatment. Apply cold water
to the spots with a soft cloth hold
ing it on for some time; keep the
frost bitten parts away from the
heat, allowing them to warm very
gradually.
One very acceptable way of using
juice left from jars Of canned fruit
or preserves is for pudding sauce.
Dilute it If very strong, and add a
little lemon juice if too, sweet; sugar
il too sour. Thicken with flour
blended with an equal amount of
butter.
For pretty and inexpensive trays,
cut out quaint old fashioned plates
or other pictures of delicate coloring,
take them to a picture shop and
have them made into trays with dull
green gray or cream mouldings with
small brass handles at each end.
These make charming and inexpen-
sive Christmas gifts and are also
very useful.
To darn on the sewing machine re-
move the presser-foot from the ma
chine and loosen the tension; place
the goods to be darned in an embroid-
cry frame; run the machine quite
rapidly, passing the goods back and
forth until the worn place is well
stitched over. A little experience
will enable you to make an almost in
visible repair if done before the goods
is worn entirely through
Colored clothes should never be
soaked. Neither should they ever be
washed in very hot water or boiled.
Also soap solution is better than
soap rubbed on the garment, Greens,
yellows, lavenders and pinks should
never be blued.
To remove coffee stain, use borax
and pour boiling water through the
stain.

WORD FROM SOME OF
OUR SOLDIER BOYS

1t is interesting to note where
the Crested Butte boys are who have
enlisted in the different armed forces
Of the country. George Ball is in the
electrical shops of the U. S. Navy
and is stationed at Mare Island; Al
fred Benson writes from Corpus
Christi, Texas, where he is one of the
U. S. Regulars; Francis O'Neil joined
the cavalry and is now at Fort
Douglas, near Cheyenne; Louis Mos

sickness, but are now enroute to

room. If you have steam heat, the
best thing to do is to keep a we'll
filled dish on your radiator all the
time and keep your fern as far from
the heat as possible.
If you could tell your neighbor how
he could make some money easily and
at the same time not inconvenience
yourself would it not be your privil-
ege, pleasure.and duty to do so?
On the Western Slope much opposi-
tion has developed to shipping fruit
on consignment. The producers be-
lieve the dealers would get more for
the goods if they had their own
money invested in it.
One of the most discouraging things
you can say to child or youth is to
call him a good-for-nothingo or to tell
him he will never be of any use.
Many a good boy is ruined by just
such treatment.
If there is any where on your
horizon, a spot of light, fix your eyes
upon it and turn your thoughts away
from the clouds that may cover the
rest of the sky.
Pleasures make one soft and lazy,
but not happiness. Happiness is as
bracing as the sea air.
Don't flatter yourself that friend
ship authorizes you to say disagree
able things to your intimates.
There were thirteen stars in the
United States flag at the time of the
Revolution. Fifteen in the war of
1872; twenty-nine during the Mexi-
can war; thirty-iive at the close of
the Civil war and forty-five in the
Spanish American war. At the pres
ent time there are forty-eight.
1t is always easy to forgive the
other peoples enemy.
Courtesy is really doing unto others
art of it lies in a careful considera-
tion for the feelings of other people.
1t comes from putting oneself in
neighbours place and trying to enter
into his mind and it demands a GER
tain suppression of oneself and SYM
pathy with the neighbor.
Some reformers in trying to make
the world better, merely succeed in
making it very uncomfortable.
1t is we'll to have vision of bet
ter life than the every day one, but
it is the every day one which counts
in the end.
You cannot grow strong by merely
exercising, you must have food, the
kind you can digest and assimilate.
Not too much rich stuffs or sweets.
Never mind the little stings,
Jog along.
On the road to happier things,
Jog along.
With your courage shining bright
With cherry smile in sight,
And your face turned to the light
Jog along.
1t is easier and pleasanter to keep
sickness out of the home than to get
rid of it once it has gained foot
hold. And with this end in view one
should strive at all times to see that
cleanliness reigns supreme.
