True Stories of Successful W0nen
BY Edith Moriarty

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am fifteen
years old and have one brother who
Is working and one younger brother
who b in school.
My mamma is dead and papa wants
me to keep on with school until
graduate. So we all help out with the
homework, but it is not bit like 1t
used to be. We do not have it nearly
SO nice in our house as my friends
have and l never like to invite them
over. 1t was always neat when
mamma was here, but now papa and
my brothers do things any old way
and l have to let them and not fuss
because / can't do everything alone.
My older brother has just been
scolding me terribly and says I don't
deserve such good father. He called
me snob and says I ought to quit
the girls I go with. I wonder what
shall do. but first l will have to tell
you.
Papa can't wear good clothes when
he works and he looks awful. One
day he met me with some Of my
friends and called out to me, for he
is full Of fun. He looked so awful
was ashamed and when the girls
asked me who that freshie was l said,
Someone Il know WE'LL" and started
about something else. I was not
pleasant to him and l think 1t hurt
him, but he never said word about
it,
A while afterward when l was with

County Folks Lose Crouch,
Gain Tan. in Vacations
at Northern Fishing Holes

With a coat of tan, and a better
disposition. court attaches are return
ing from their summer vacations this
week and are getting down to the
daily grind again.
Gus Hafner. deputy county clerk,
returned Monday from a two week S
stay at a northern Indiana lake.
Deputy Sheriff Carl Wadman is
again at work after an outing in the
wilds near Centerville, where he
hunted the elusive squirrel and lodged
the pestiferous chisser
Ate all the time" was the answer
Wadman gave when asked how he
spent his vacation, and those SOUR
rels certainly tasted good"
John Holiday is still drowning
worms at his favorite "fishin'" hole,
although an entry on the court docket
shows that he was due to return last
Monday. Officials of the court house
are wondering just what has happened
to him.
Holiday promised that he would not
return until he was able to bring
back a good mess of fish, and it Is
believed that this promise might be
the cause of his extended stay.

the same girls he was coming up the
street, but before he got up to us he
turned and crossed over and l know
he did 1t on purpose. He is good as
he can be, but he looks fright ex-
cept on Sundays.
l felt so badly told my brother and
he just scolded me terribly. / don't
want to be a snob, but all the girls /
go with have prettier homes and
clothes and their people dress better,
too. Please tell me what | should
do. MAIDIE.
Your letter is very pathetic. 1t is
easy for me to see the great soul
your father has, and also that he has
neglected to teach you true values In
life. Do you think less of Jesus be-
cause he wore poor clothing? The
quality Of his soul makes you admire
him the more for his simplicity.
Be proud of your father and tell
your friends how splendid he Is. Ex-
plain that in spite of his hard work
he tries to be both father and mother
to you. If your friends are anything
but snobs they will regard him with
the respect you hold for him and will
love him in spite of his shabby work
day clothes.
Your present attitude is entirely
wrong. If your friends amounted to
anything they would like you less be-
cause of it. When a girl is ashamed
of her own father it shows that she Is
snob and lacks heart and soul

German Prince Charged
With Hoarding of Food

BERLIN, Tuesday. Aug. 19.-At a
meeting of the citizens of fellow, a
suburb of Berlin today there was a
discussion of the conduct of Prince
Friedrich Leopold, cousin of former
Emperor William, who unlike Count
Hohenzolern remained there instead
of leaving the country. 1t was alleged
that he had engaged in Illicit trading
on large scale and had boarded large
quantities of food.
Local authorities recently searched
his castle. confiscating great supplies
of food which were distributed among
hospitals, but when they attempted
to bring action against the Prince,
they were told from authoritative
quarters that he was immune, being
member of the royal family Prince
Friedrich has also stored a huge
quantity of coal and other fuel with
which to heat his castle during the
coming winter. The castle has 14O
rooms and Is bathrooms No deci-
sion as to what will be done with the
Prince was reached at today's meet
ing.

The best sweet peppers for canning
are the Spanish variety known as
pimentos. The fruit of these peppers
has a very thick flesh and tough skin
and is comparatively smooth and free
from ridges. Bell peppers are not a
suitable variety to can. Only ripe,
sound peppers free from bruises
should be used. Can the whole peppers.
The small or broken ones may be cut
into strips and canned or used in rel
ishes, sauces and soup mixtures.
Remove the seeds with a slender
pairing knife by cutting around the stem
and taking out the inside partitions.
To peel, roast the peppers in a hot
oven from to 10 minutes or until
the skin blisters and cracks. Do not
allow them to scorch. Remove skin
with a sharp pairing knife, flatten the
peppers and pack in layers in a jar
which has been boiled Is minutes. No

FOOD SALE POSTAGE
LOWER; QUOTA YET
IS BARELY TOUCHED

A new change in the postage for
mail orders in connection with the
sale of surplus army foodstuffs has
ben made by the postoff1ce department.
1t was announced by Postmaster c. B.
Beck, Wednesday, morning.
All postage will correspond with the
rates in zones one and two, which
is five cents for the first pound and
one cent for each additional pound.
Hereafter persons ordering food
through the postoffice department
should figure their postage according
ly. The extra amount of postage paid
by persons who have already pur-
chased will be refunded, added Beck.
Three times as many orders were
received Tuesday as Monday, with
peas and corn still the largest COM
modify being purchased. Sales in
Richmond are bigger in proportion
than the ones in the state capitol,
Indianapolis, said Beck.
The sale will, in all proba bility, be
continued until all the foodstuffs are
consumed, which will be according
to the present. rate of purchases, a
month.
Sales to Continue
Richmond purchasers who are under
the impression that the sale will end
Wednesday, and consequently are not
buying should mail or give their or
ders to carriers, or bring them direct
to the postoffice, with the new postage
prices. 1t will not end until Rich
mond's quota is exhausted.
Persons who have been overcharged
on the postage due to the late arrival
of the orders changing the rate, should
not worry about receiving the sur
charge, for. as soon as the postal au'
thorities get the situation cleared up,
they will sent checks to all purchasers
for the amount due them.
1t will relieve the officials greatly
if the people adhere strictly to this
order, and help to keep down the con-
gested conditions at the postofice.

water or seasoning is used in the
canning. The processing in the jar
brings out thick liquor which almost
covers them.
Put in place the rubber and top
which have been boiled. If a screp-top
cover is used, screw half way on; If a
glass top with wire balls, put top bail
in position and leave the lower clamp
unfastened. Place jars on the false
bottom in water-bath Gamer If the
cover of the vessel in which the pro-
cessing is done is not tight, water suf-
ficient to cover the jars should be put
in. Boil pint Jars for 80 minutes, in
vert to test for leaks and, when cool,
store in cool, dark, dry place.
When a steam-pressure Gamer is
used, process pints 10 minutes under
an eight-pound steam PRESSURE

by Luxe "oOodTos
Man belts the mighty earth with
nerves,
His hands have spun from melted
orS
The chained lightning meekly serves
AS tongue and pen, and time and
space
Are made as nought, and from their
thrones,
Monarchs may speak, as face to
face,
To princes in remotest zones;
And what the Gar of Russia said
At evening is next morning read
In Congress and in parliament,
To Prince Of Wales and President.
How changed! For once, to take our
mail
The stage and slow pack horse were
used.
And we relied on wind and sail
To bring us all our foreign news.
We have no better voice or ear
Than had our grandsires, yet while
they
Could not be heard a league, we hear
Ones voice a thousand miles away.
In days gone by our loved ones tongue
Was stilled by death, twas heard
But now like to a harp re-strung,
We hear their voice, the songs they
sung,
AS we were wont in days Of yore.
The Duke of Argyll, though a sage,
Surprising most men of his age,
Does in his book declare
That man with wisdom most profound,
And skill, the means has never found,
To navigate the air.
But now we have the aeroplane,
Whose speed exceeds the fastest
train;
And flies across the seas
With men on board! Well, who can
say
We may not in a coming day
See stranger things than these
If one who has prophetic powers
Had told those worthy sires of ours.
That their own sons would see
What we have seen, they would have
said.
why, man, you've surely lost your
head.
Such things can never be-
