 the water from which the cress is gathered is pure, for disease germs gather on such greens and are men ace to health.
 Like most green vegetables cress is better served fresh than cooked. as much of the mineral matter is dis solved or changed by cooking Cress is particularly rich in mineral matter containing both sulphur and phos- phOrus. It is especially good in the spring as it is a stimulant to the appe- tite because of its peppery flavor.
 A water-cress soup is especially good. The following recipe will give the method of preparing it
 Take two bunch es of water cress each bunch weighing a pound or quart of chopped cress. half a table spoonful of minced onion, three table spoonfuls of rice, three tablespoonfuls of butter. dash of cayenne. the yols of an egg. four cupfuls of white stock (chicken preferred), cupful of rich milk or thin cream, one-half teaspoon full of salt, g.ating of nutmeg and whipped cream Tor garnishing. Pick off the tips of he cress and save for garnishing; chop fine, stems and all Fry the onion in butter until light yellow, add the stock. rice and cress When well cooked rub through sieve and add the egg and cream. There should be three .upfuls of soup when ready to serve. Serve piping hot with whipped cream sprinkled with the fresh cress tips
 When one is fortunate enough to obtain cress in abundance, cook it as one does spinach or any greens Do not add any water when cooking ex- cept that which clings to the cress. Toss and stir occasionally until it is well heated through. If care is used no extra water will be needed. Drain. save the liquor and chop the cress fine. Thicken the liquor with a little flour and butter cooked together, add ing generous ~upply of butter. Serve very hot.

Important to all Women
 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy con- dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition
 Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- ble and may be despondent; it makes any one so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions
 Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sam pie size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores-Advertisemen

A train from Dubica for Agram was travelling slowly soon after leaving the station on account of the snow, when it was attacked by a large pack of wolves who were maddened by hunger. The animals jumped on the engine and into the coaches, bowling desperately. The frightened passengers barricaded and defended themselves with rifles and revOlvers. Many wolves were run over and killed, and finally the train, putting on speed. succeeded in getting away from the pack. It arrived at Agram covered with bloOdstains and pieces of wolves flesh.

and instructive address upon the sig
nificance of the day. lie made some
pointed remarks relative to the mis-
sion of democraciss; their virtues and
shortcomings. He declared that not
all reforms necessarily mean progress
and he depiored the excess OF law
making, declaring that the tablets OF
law handed down from Mount Sinai
were excellent models of brevity and
directness and he commended them to-
modern legislators who sought q law
or panacea for every ill.
7 Mr. Diehl who is winding up the
Home Building association affairs de-
clared that until the court passed up
,Jn the Issue OF equity the state has in
the various houses, it would be hard
to state how great the deficit was.
The book deficit, he said, was more
than 100000. but it Is expected that
when final liquidation is made that
there will be, from 100000 to $1OO, 900
deficit dependent wholly upon the
courts construction OF the various
contracts in litigation. He stated that
it was very fortunate for the state
that the experiment in BODYBUILDING
was stopped as the losses promised to
run into many more thousands.
