The Man Who Signs
Must Make Good!

responsible man puts his name to piece OF paper
and it becomes check-the equivalent of money.
He signs his name on the back Of another piece of
paper and it becomes an endorsed note-good for
money.
He writes letter and it becomes binding contract
The adding of the name makes things solemn and
legal obligations
The man who signs is responsible.
Just so with an advertisement-the moment a man
signs his name to it he has made pledge to the public
He is bound by his word as much as if he signed
check or a note He must do what he promised on the
terms he promised
If he does not he courts business disaster The man
who advertises lie publicly proclams himself liar
Such men are seldom in business but frequently in

WANTS TOWN
 OFFICES CONSOLIDATED

Editor Gateway: Now that cleo tion is coming close to hand and the terms of the present incumbents are nearly over do you not believe it would be a good idea for the voters to demand the consolidation of the offic- es of the clerk, treasurer, and assessor and the offices of chief of police and fire chief. The city attorneys office could also be abolished in the inter- ests of economy. An attorney could be hired as the need arose and the pro- posed consolidation would save the taxpayers some $3,000 per year. We now are paying out salaries of $6,00O per year, and could cut this sum in half and secure the same results.
 While the town has plenty of money at all times, and is financially solvent, I believe the money could be spent for other purposes that would be of more general benefit.

Marshal in President Wilson's first term, and was also can didate for representative on the Demo cratic ticket, but was defeated His name was place on the ballot by his friends. but owing to disappointment over his failure to land the marshall ship, he refused to interest himself in the election.
 MT. Oldham was born in Mi:souri, and for many years taught school and worked on a number of papers as edi tor if reports are true, coming to the Northland with the idea of recouping his fortunes. He was man who made and kept friends. and had strong pref udices.
 Mir. Oldham was one of the original discoverers of the Crow Creek district and formerly had many mining inter- ests in the territory.
 His brother, it is claimed made the nominating speech for William Jen- nings Bryan for the presidency.
 At the time of his death little was known of him as he had effaced him. self from public life the past few years, but now it is known that he was man of former ability and su- perior education, choosing It. live the life of a recluse.

PERVERTED ECONOMY.

The practice of economy is a splendid thing, but'like all
good things it must be practised wisely or it becomes worth
less and ridiculous.
The housekeeper who saves a few cents a week by the
purchase of an inferior grade of butter, Or an inferior grade
of milk for her family, so as to be able to save enough to
buy a new lamp for the living room is not practising wise
economy. Good food is essential. One would not put an In
ferior grade of gasoline in ones automobile and expect it to
run smoothly. 1t is just as true of the human machine. When
it comes to food, the oil of the human engine, the best is al
ways the cheapest.
How ridiculous is the woman who is SO economical that
she saves for days, or more likely weeks, the lux water
in which she has washed her fine laces on the chance of further
use, and is so foolshly extravagant as to buy a string OF
beads to match perfectly each of her gowns.
Doesn't that strike you as being perverted economy?
Still don't you all know people whose idea of economy is such.
The saved lux water of a life time wouldn't purchase a single
bead in a string.
A confusion of essentials and non-essentials; an unjust
estimate of proportionate values; an oyerstressing of details
to the exclusion of vital t~hings-that is the trouble with
many women's idea of economy.
To practice economy wisely is hard. One wouldn't be
human without ones pet eXtravagances. Every woman has
them. But don't have so many of them that you pay for them
with your unwise and ridiculous economies.
The secret Of wise economy lies, don't you think, in it's
even distribution.
Balance, moderation, a knowledge of real and proper
tionate values marks the wise economist as it marks the wise
woman.

MOTHERS OF FAMOUS AfEIN

Quite the reverse in every respect
from the placid uninteresting mother
of David Garrick. great actor of the
eighteenth century, was the mother
of Richard Mansfield, great actor of
the nineteenth century. Erminia
Rudersdorff, M%ansfield's mother, was
a vital, warm, creature of genius as
famous in her time as an operate
prima donna as her son ever became
as a master of tragedy. A mere cur
sorry glance at her character, tenn
permanent and life, is sufficient to
demonstrate where Richard Mans
field got all his fires, genius, and
also his eccentricities.
Erminia Rudersdorff Mansfield
was a typical tempestuous, story
book prima donna, a life model of
the heroines of several modern plays
and novels, such as Enter Madame"
''The Texas Nightingale" and Rita
Coventry" She was beautiful, brill
liant, gifted, temperamental, Eighty
and lovable. Her husband adored
her, as did everyone else who came
in contact with her. She made all
men her willing slaves. Her caprices
were respected as those of a queen.

How To Make
Delicious Pickles
BY Sister Mary

Perhaps an early frost has come
along and nipped the cantaloup
vines. The melons look full grown
and seem to ripen in the sun but
when cut they are not sweet and are
a great disappointment.
However, these melons can pc
used for delicious sweet pickles
They combine with green tomatoes
in a truly epicurean relish. one
flavor compliments the other.
Small unripe melons are also used
for this pickle. The tomatoes should
be green, so green thai the Whlte
tinge is un~noticeable.
CantaIoup and Tomato Pickle
Pare rind from melon and remove
seeds. Cut in two or three men
lengths of about three-fourthS inch
thickness. Wash tomatoes and cut
in one-fourth inch slices. Let stand
in salt and water to cover for three
hours Use one-half cup salt for
one-half peck tomatoes. Sprinkle
salt through tomatoes as slicing
them and then pour over water to
cover. Drain thoroughly. Combine
c%antaloup and tomatoes and let
stand in weak alum water to cover
for four hours. Allow n teaspoon
powdered alum to a quart of boil
ing water.
Heat slowly to the boiling point,
romove from fire and let stand in a
warm place for the required length
of time. Drain and put into very
colo water to chill.
Make a strip by boiling two
pounds brown sugar, one quart cider
vinegar, two tablespoons whole
cloves three tablespoons broken
9stick cinnamon one tablespoon all
Dspice berries until thick. Strain
over tomatoes and melon put
down" in a deep crock.
Let stand until the next morning,
then drain off strip and scald. Pour
back over mixture. DO this four
successive mornings. The last morn
Ding pack tomatoes and melons in
Jars, pour over boiling strip to com
pletely fill jars and seal.
Tomatoes or melons can be used
this way alone. Tomatoes picked
this way do not become soft and
broken as when they are boiled in
strip. '+'
