COLD PORK PIE

Dear Sisters: Even if this is busy season when most people are on the jump most of the day. feel it necessary to take. the necessary few minutes to keep in touch with the Corner. I never fail to read the letters but somehow I believe as a member I should do something more than that and make an occasional -contri- button.
 I have just been given a new recipe for cold pork pie and as the weather is such as to permit of good pork members of the Corner may like to- try it. since this is one of the meat pies that has the reputation of being as good if not bet ter than hot

WELCOMES AND EGRECTs MUCH
 FROM NEW wRfrERS.

Dear Social Corner Friends; How our Social Corner family is groWingi Four new ones last week How cheering 1t WAS to read Great Grandmas letter of Thankfulnesz May we treasure her words of counsel and remember to count our blessings day by day. We gre tee apt to forget to render thanks to eur Heavenly Father for the many blessings and mercies that we are continually re- ceivinE from His bountifuI hand once heard the great preacher Henry Ward Beecher say that whenever be picked an apple or plucked q flower in the fields he felt that he ought to say thank you" as he knew that it was through the loving kindness of God that they grew for the beneht of mankind We are very glad to welcome the new writ. CTS to the Social Corner page and te our good times at our club rosnns anA are very glad to hear from all that have ever written. I was very glad that Diana's letter was appreciated and she re- ceived a prize for the sentiments she ex. pressed were so true and helpfuL We are very sorry that Ma of Green Cables is afflicted with rheumatism % that 1T is hard for her to write fer the Cor. ner, for we always eniey her letters. Probably the cool reception, she wrets about in her lest letter by the lady
 
 door to greet them, might have heen due 10 the fact that she was net able to re- spond. She might have been suffering from severe headache and did not feel able to get up and entertain n larae number of unexpected guests and her
 sband might not have known just how to quickly explaiA- the situation, and they perhaps did not wait long enough te find out the true situation. I would not let it raakle in the heart for prob. ably there was some good reason why she could not greet SC many -unexpect- ed guests, and we know that we must not treasure up grievances, but mus forgive and overlook as cur Heayenl, / Father forgives us.

WESTERN RIOT CENTRES
More Troops Sent to West Frankfort
ILL.,, After Mob Drives Foreigners

West Frankfort, Ill.,, Aug. AL
though West Frankfort was quiet to-
day after a night of wild rioting, Ma
ior Wilbur Satterfield, in charge of the
militiamen here telegraphed Adjutant
General Dickson for 500 additional
troops. Major NJ. E. Satterfield ex-
pressed the belief that the rioting
might be rendewed at any moment.
The homes of many foreigners were
fired, and the residents were dubbed
and mauled as they emerged from the
burning buildings to escape incinera-
| ton.
/! Following night of rioting in
which five persons are believed to
have been killed and scores injured,
comparative quiet was restored. APP
proximately 5000 foreigners, against
whom the rioters directed their at
tacks, had left town, and this, coupled
with the arrival of $50 militiamen Of
the 9th Illinois Infantry, tended to
bring about order.
A number of homes were burned
and a pool hall was wrecked. The mob
at its height, numbered about 1000
men. Foreigners fled in all directions.
taking what articles of property they
could with them. The outbreak got un-
der way shortly after 10 o'clock last
night and continued to nearly day
break. At times the mob split up in
sections, and it was reported that
some divisions drove foreigners into
nearby woods.

when houses for rent or for sale were
conspicuous by their absence. When
families were leaving the city for
other places, owing to the fact that

rent a place in which to live.
However, this condition does not ex-
list in such great measure today.
| Houses are more plentiful now than
at any time during the past few years
! but this condition may not remain.
Real Estate dealers throughout the
citv are continually asking the ques-
tion-Why should man pay a big
rental for house, when for a small
initial cash payment, he can buy
piece of property and pay for 1t on
the same conditions as paying rent
for home?
In an effort to further the pur-
chasing of property, the various real
estate dealers of the city have band
ed together and every Saturday they
are planning to run a number OF spe-
cially good bargains in real estate
and it is to the best advantage of any
prospective property owner in the city

make a personal visit to the offices or

Varieties of Foot Trouble


Varieties of Foot Trouble
Philadelphia, Aug. 7.-Danlel "
Springer, Tamaqua, Pa, had given u4
hope that there was any cure TOR the
crippled foot of his daughter, Irene
now 16 years old.
He brought her to the convention
of the National Association OF Cniro-
rodists today. One of the doctors dis
covered that her trouble of ten years
standing was only case of the mis-
placement of three small bones IN her
foot. He set these bones with his flng-
ers. The girl threw away her arch sup
porters, waking away without a DIT
Of pain.
DR.. Edward Adams, of New YORK
City, who spoke on "Ulcers OF the
Feet asserted that a surprising
number of cases of this trouble were
caused by scratching a foot clad IN a
silk stocking. This completed the case
against the silk stocking. During the
convention it was accused by various
chiropodists of causing practlcahv
every variety of foot ailment.
