N. Y. CIubWomen Find Evidence
in Canada to Back Legiti-

DISCLOSURES NOT GIVEN OUT

New York. Sept. 90 6-Clubwomen
who have interested themselves in the
Stillman divorce case in behalf of Mrs.
Anne Urquhart Potter Stillman. or
detectives who represented themselves
as clubwomen, are reported TO have
ferreted out important and sensational
new evidence.

son Of Fred Beauvais. Indian guide. ad-
mitted last night that the new evidence
had been obtained. lie refused to dis
cuss il. however.
The evidence is reported to be vol
luminous. An authority in the case
said
There is i>,uch of it. and 1t has had
u far reaching effect. for II has brought
Mrs. Anne UrQuhart Potter Stillman
and her nineteen -ycar-Old daughter,
Anne Stillman. closer together prob
ably than they have ever been.
Says Father Lied TO Me"
Miss Stillman. who had been much
with her father. visited her brothers
at point near Canada this summer.
and was there when the new evidence
was uncovered, It IL said to have
raused her to acknowledge baby Guy
Stilman as her own brother and TO
have said:
Father lied to me. The real facts
in the case were kept from my knowl-
edge, and ! have asked my mother to
forgive me and I will always remain
true to her in the future. No matter
what happens. I will never believe any
thing any one tells me about my mother
again. although my father told me he
had positive proof of the charges he
brought against her
Although Miss Stillman never def
nitely broke with her mother, she sided
with her father, and it was through her
that an effort was made to compromise
the case last spring. 1t was explained
last night that Miss Stilman now oc-
cupied an unusual position in tho fam

both her parents. Mr.. <Stilman ac-
cOmpanied her to the steamship Olym-

Care of the Teeth

Carelessness is the only excuse for
decayed, dirty, ill-kept teeth. Daily
brushing of the teeth from early
childhood is a habit easily acquired
and as easily kept.
There is a certain small percentage
of people who have never become ac-
quainted with a toothbrush and there
is a large percentage of those who do
not know how to use the toothbrush
properly.
1t is essential. not alone to remove
the food and tartar that may cling
in the crevices of the teeth or the
points at which the teeth emerge
from the gums, but also to stimulate
the circulation in the gums. This
can best be done by vigorous brush
ing with a stiff brush. The gums
themselves should be brushed, too.
A soft brush must first be used for
this until the gums become used to
the brushing. 1t is well also to brush
the root of the tongue as germs may
also cling there.
The best way to use a toothbrush
is this:
Place the bristles of the brush
firmly against the teeth. Then. APP
plying pressure as If trying TO force
the bristles between the teeth, pro-
coed with q slight rotary scrubbinS
motion. After a little practice you
will be surprised at the results OBJ
tanned provided you are careful to
go over all the surfaces of the teeth
in this manner.
The brushing finished, take a
mouthful of luke warm water, ana
with lips, cheeks and tongue using
all the force you can bring to bear.
force the water between n around
the teeth, repeating this cleansing
process several times. This is al
most as important as brushing h
teeth.
The teeth should be cleaned after
each meal in the morning before
eating Snd at night before retiring.
Not less than three to five minutes
| should be spent each time.
A carefully selected powder, dental
| cream or tooth paste should be used
10 aid the water and the brush in the
work of cleansing. :.
Little children should have a SINAI
narrow. soft-bristled brush. AS the
| child grows older the size OF the
| brush and the stiffness of the b~ristles
| should be increased. lore than one
| toothbrush is often a good thing.

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

Dry the surplus of your garden
and orchard. Dryed fruit and veg
etables r very satisfactory to use
and they keep without risk. A cup
of dried food will go almost twice as
far as a cup of the same thing
canned.
The driers may be made at home
or bought. The simpler the con-
structon the better. Trays with per
forated bottoms can be made or
purchased to fit the oven, or a large
frame the size of the top of the cook
stove can be made. Stretch strong
screening covered with coarse
cheesecloth over the frame and JUS
pend from the ceiling over the stove
by means of pulleys. The frame
can be raised or lowered accord
ing to the heat.
before drying. This makes them
evaporation.
Dried String Beans
Wash and string beans carefully.
Cut in inch lengths. Put ina cheese
cloth bag and dip in boiling water
for ten minutes. Dip in cold water
for minute. Drain and dry be-
tween towels. Spread in a thin
layer on the dryer and dry about five
hours, increasing the heat gradually
stir occasionally.
Dried Lima Beans
Shell beans. Put in cheesecloth
bag and dip in boiling water for
five minutes. Plunge in cold water.
Spread on tray and dry until brittle.
Dried Celery Leaves
Wash the leaves and dry between
towels. Put on dryer and dry three
hours. These are most convenient
for use in soups.
While all vegetables may be dried
those hat will keep through the
winter carefully stored in the cellar
should be stored and kept without
drying is space permits. Carrots,
parsnips, celery, onions, leeks, tur-
nips and beets keep for winter use
without drying or canning.
Dried Apples
Pare, core and slice the apples.
Drop in cold, slightly sailed water
to prevent the fruit from turning
dark. Drain and dry between towels
Spread on tray and dry until it is
impossible to press water from the
fruit. Increase the heat gradually.
Dried Pears
wash pSdiS III PuI III ciiCCSc-
cloth bag. Dip in boiling water for
ten minutes Dip in cold water
Pare, core and cut in rings. Drop
in cold, sailed water to prevent dis
c%oloration. Drain and dry between
towels. Spread on trays and dry
the same as apples. Dried pears
and apples make delicious buildings
and desserts.
Dried Peaches
Wipe peaches and dip in boiling
water for two minutes. Dip In cold
water and slip skins. Cut in halves
and remove stone. Put on trays,
hollow side up and dry the same as
apples. Dried peaches on the mar
ket are dried with the skins on.
Do not attempt to dry fruits on a
screen not covered with cheesecloth.
The acid of the fruit would cause
an unhealthful chemical action on
the metal.
Vegetables can be dried that have
grown too hard to can. Peas Of
late planting that have had too
much sun should not be discarded
as burned" but dried and saved
for winter soups.
