Do you suppose that we would
have invested over $500 in a
printing outfit, just to get a few
subscribers and: then quit? Do
you? Why, certainly not unless
we are starved out waiting for
you to subscribe.
If Jackson comfy is not pros
porous enough. not rich enough,
and up-to-date enough to have
and support a good. live news
paper. tell us where you would
find one?
You take the daily paper and
some others. That's good. fol-
you can'tdo without them. But
that is no reason why you should
not take your own county paper.
1t should be first. Why? Be
cause it is published for your
benefit, and contains many items
of news each week that could not
be learned from any other source.
When you get this issue make
up your mind ike this: Il am

Give your child a nicKle oeea-
sionaly. It won't break you. and
it will give the child its first les
son in the art Of handling money.
But most important Of all, teach
it to save two cents Of every ME-
kle you give it. That will teach
it thrift and the art of saving.
Let it take its pennies out and
count them over. Every time il
counts them it will want to add q
few more to the pile. That will
inculcate the art Of accumulation.
But don't let it depend on what
you give it. 1t should be taught
to earn money, and the first les
son should 60 with the first nick
Ell. That will demonstrate the
necessity and increase its capa-
city for work. And in after
years, when success has crowned
its efforts, it will look back over
the lapse Of time and tell others
that it had the best father and
mother that God ever permitted
to live.

Drink q lot more and live still

Fortunate Babies.

There Is one instance. at least, where
a baby received a substantial bonus as
a result of subscriptions raised by the
inhabitants of the town where it was
born. This was at Schoneberg, near
Berlin. With the arrival of the baby
the population of the town reached the
100000 mark. and according to rule,
1t attained the dignities and privileges
of "gresstadt," or large town. The
inhabitants marked the occasion by
raising considerable sum of money
for the baby. At Temesvar, in Hun
gary, 100000 was once settled on
baby. The baby had been left at an
orphanage and visitor agreed TO set
tie that sum of money on 1t If allowed
to take ii away and adopt 1t.

Small Breaks in Lace.

Where there are only few threads
broken in Irish or Swiss lace they can
easily be repaired with a needle and
thread the same size as that used In
the manufacture of the Taee. Place n
tiny knot at the end of the thread on
the needle and draw this through the
place where the broken thread joins
the body of the lace. Having done
this. draw IL succession of loop knots
over the floating thread very tightly
close to the base. Now follow with
the new thread the course that the old
thread has taken, and do the same
with the other loose end. knotting it Sc
curely close TO the body lace. Cut
away the loose ends and the break is
no longer perceptible.

Just a Story.

When William Jennings Bryan was
in indianapolis recently, he was enter
tanned at the country home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Samuel NJ. Ralston. Mrs. Bryan
accompanied her husband. The Raj
ston household greatly enjoyed the con-
versation of Mr. and Mrs. Bryan. par
ticnlarly when the great commoner
told some of his best stories. A domes-
tic employed at the Ralston home was
so interested in the guests that she
wrote to friend: I'VE had fine time
at the Ralston's last night. Mr.. and
Mrs. Brandy We're visiting them and
they We're very entertaining"
Mr.. Ralston thought it was a delici-
Gus joke on Mr.. Bryan to have him
called Mr.. Brandy, and was telling it
to some friends later at the Hotel
SEVERN when Mr. Bryan came up.
81 was just telling the story about
how you We're called Brandy" said Mr.
Ralston.
II think that's just a story" said
Mr.. Bryan, laughing.

Why Soldiers Wear wrls. Watches.

Replying to question from his au-
dience. British officer lecturlng In
Chicago explained why all officers wear
wrist watches. He described an adj
vance from the trenches as an illustra-
ton, telling how every move was made
on a prearranged schedule. the artil-
lery throwing a curtain of fire for a
certain number of seconds, while the
infantry advanced 20 yards farther
ahead, while the infantry made an
other advance. and SO on.
"All this shell fire." he said. 'is be-
ing done by artillery far behind. The
artillery officer depends most of all
upon his watch. He sits with tele-
phone glued to his ear and field glasses
in his hands. He has no time to be
fumbling for his watch A minutes
error in changing the range would
mean that the shells would be falling
into his own advancing troops. Nor
has the officer leading his men across
No Mans Land any time to be FUN
bling for his watch"

cupful of sugar, half n cupful of salt.
two cupfuls of vinegar and the follow
ing ground spices: One tablespoonful
of cinnamon. one-eighth of teaspoon
full of cayenne pepper, half tea
spoonful of cloves and allspice mixed.
This mixture is boiled for three hours
and then bottled for winter use. This
makes thick sauce. BY adding six
cupfuls of vinegar instead of two a
good catsup may be made.
Bordeaux Sauce.-Two gallons of
cabbage, one gallon of green tomatoes,
one dozen white onions, six red sweet
peppers. all chopped fine; one ounce
of whole allspice, one ounce of whole
cloves, one-quarter of a pound of
white mustard seed, one ounce of cell
cry seed, one and three-quarters
pounds of sugar, one gallon of vine
gar and half cupful of salt. Drain
the tomatoes; cabbage and tomatoes
are measured after chopping. Remove
the seeds from the peppers. Gloves
and allspice are put in small cheese
cloth bags. Boil twenty minutes, can

vinegar may be used several times.
Picked Beets.-Take one dozen
beets, two quarts of vinegar, one-quar-
ter Of an ounce each of mace and GIN
ger, tablespoonful of pepper and two
tablespoonfuls of grated horseradish.
Cook the beets until tender and cut
up, add the seasonings to the vinegar

Two-pieee or three-piece matched
sets in millinery are among the smart
est things shown in the new displays
for fall. The two-piecea set is just
right and designers have made it pos
sible to select hat and bag a hat
and collar-or hat and cape or scarf
made to match; or, if they do not
match in materials. some touch in
trimming makes them kin. A silk hat
trimmed with chinchilla. for instance
is bound for life to a high chinchilla
collar by a veil that falls from the hat
and is sewed to the upper edge of the
collar.
Leading the vanguard of matched
sets came the hat and bag to match
and this fancy is altogether so pleas
ing that hat and bag sets are quite
likely to be found also in the rear of
the fashion parade along about Christ
mas time. If you contemplate some
thing unusual in Christmas gifts that
hat and bag set pictured here ought to
prove interesting.
One of the smartest of smart sets
is of brilliant green satin hrOeaded
with gold and finished with green che
mile tassels in the bag. The hat, to
be worn with it, has crown Of black
velvet and a narrow rolling brim of

Troops Called to subdue Bear

When the Swiss army was modified
three years ago the soldiers surely did
not think that they would have to fight
bears, but that happened to n detach-
ment of the troops on Horseback on
the lake of Constance recently.
A large brown bear escaped from
travelling menagerie and trotted
THROUGH the streets, causing panic
among the population. The bear fin
ally entered butcher shop, where
he enjoyed a good meal of steak and
fish and created general havoc. In the
meantime half company of soldiers
of the local garrison had been called
up and FASTENED to the scene of the
disturbance with loaded rifles and
fixed bayonets. The butcher shop was
surrounded by the troops and the bear
held at bay until his owner and a
couple of trainers arrived and lassoed
him.

women. Everybody that is anybody is

People who never touched knitting
needle before have mastered the art
of knitting sox and find the work fas-
cinating.
When we contemplate the brief his
tory of a pair of SoX we realize that
the task of furnishing them will never
be through with until the war ends.
Supplies of sex must be sent in relays,
one after the other, because, sturdy as
the knitted wooden ones are, they will
wear out.
Mufflers are easier for the begin
ner, and the sort of sweaters required
are not very difficult. They are sleeve
less and are really chest and back pro-
tectors. All the knitted garments
must be made according to stand
ards, which will be furnished by the
Red Cross to those who apply for
them.
