Beauty of old CathedraIS in
Europe Told in Let
ter.

The beauty of the cathedrals Of
England is told in a letter by Eliza
beth Wicks.
This letter is contained in the cur
rent issue if the Indianapolis Uni
tartan Bulletin.
The beauty of her travels to the
old cathedrals is told as follows by
Elizabeth ,Wicks in the Bulletin:
Our railroad train swung down
from the north one bright, sunny
noon, through prosperous hayfields
to the little town of Durham The
great cathedral seizes the attention
at once: perched on the hill above
the river Wear it looks like a dragon
couchant ready to spring away from
earth.
AS we stepped into its softened
light the air was mellow with hea-
venly music-boy's and mems voices
singing at the vesper. The splendid
strength and sincerity of the build
ing give one feeling of harmony.
The simply decorated arches and
sturdy pillars take one baSk to the
days when this church had to be

ing figures buried there. OF one we

of the river now flowing at his feet.

hill making Of Durham a strong ma
tura1 stronghold and here the monks
came in 997 and began the church on
the site of the present cathedral, and
here we stood beside the tomb and
heard the tale of st. Cuthbert's wan
derings.
The-sun was setting at about nine
o'clock when we strolled out for a
walk. A narrow street led us to a
church yard with a we'll worn path
across it. This led us down beside
the river, beneath great trees, beside
a waterfall and beckoned ever by
rosy clouds out to a bridge at the
very foot of the cathedral which.
flushed with evening glow, looked
more than ever like a great winged
dragon about to soar into the sky.

MRS. LILLE JONES

2136 Winter Ave, this city, made
the following statement to the Kon-
lola Man, who is at Hooks drug
store, Pennsylvania and Market SITS,
where he is explaining this surpris-
ing remedy to large crowds daily
Il suffered a great many years
with stomach trouble" said Mrs.
Jones, land my food seemed to form
a solid rock after every meal instead
of digesting. An awful grinding
and gnawing would appear in my
stomach. and many times it felt like
my insides were being torn out. 1
had terrible pains in my chest and
so much gas formed in my system
that I would hurt clear up to my
shoulders and in my-back. always
belched a hot, sour liquid that would
feel like it was taking the lining off
my throat. l would break out in
cold, clamy sweats, always had dizzy,
sick headaches, and when sitting
in a chair the room would seem to go
around and spots of all colors would
appear before my eyes. Pains would
come on me in the night that near.
ly drove me. insane. No one knows
. what suffering I endured and worst
~ all, I had tried so many remedies
9gnd different medicines that failed
to help me until I lost hope of
getting well.
II began reading about Konjola
and when I discovered that so many
Indianapolis people were restored to
health by this medicine, I had faith
in it, so l got my first bottle, and
before it was half gone l knew it
was just the medi cine I always
needed. I have taken bottles and
now my stomach is digesting any
kind Of food care to eat. haven't
had a single ache or pain of any
kind since I finished the second
bottle. The sick, dizzy headaches
formerly had are gone now, and it's
hard for me to realize that l was
once a victim of those bursting pains
in my head. I am getting a lot of
nourishment from the food I eat, and
that heavy rock feeling and awful
gnawing and grinding in my
stomach is entirely gone, and my
digestion is so perfect that I don't
even belch or suffer from the
slightest gas or bloating. Why, be-
fore l got this Kopjola, as I have
already stated, l would have terrible
belching spells and my throat would
actually become raw. I noticed Kon-
jola has also built up my whole
system in every way, so that I sleep
all night long without waking up.
and I always feel refreshed in the
morning instead of worn out like
was before. But I am most thank
full for the wonderful way Konjola
acts on the stomach, and I do not
hesitate to recommend such
medicine to every one.
The Konjola Man is at Hooks drug
}<Atore, Pennsylvania and Market SITS,
indianapolis, where he is daily meet
ing the public and introducing and
explaining the merits of this remedy
Konjola is also for sale by every
Hook drug store in this city, and by
all good druggists in outside towns.

BARBER

TAME the visiting barber. He
~ brought a set Of strange and
archaic tools, and having shaken
hands all round and taken up a
sitting position in a bowl-shaped
depression in the sand, proceeded
to wait for customers. AS fast
as our men finished their work
they went to him, squatting on
the ground before him and facing
him. The ancient razor tortured
their sun-burned faces. The same
brass bowl OF water did for all.
When each customer had fin
ished he paid what he considered
the job to be worth-one plaster
or two, or 10 cents. Whatever
he received. the barber took it
courteously and without comment.
When he had finished he packed
up his belongings and politely de-
parted, joining the throng OF
laborers who were on their way

WITH
MAPLE


Tl7E first run Of maple syrup
i win soon he on the market,
although the reluctance Of spring
has made the season unusually
late.
Each year we give suggestions
for using maple syrup and soft
sugar IN cooking so that the
cakes, biscuits and pastries Of the
springtime may carry this flavor.
This year we stick to sweets
which may be given the maple
flavor without the use Of too
large quantities of the precious
sweet.
Instead OF beginning on confec-
tions we will start off with e.
punch which may be useful for
entertaining on q spring after
noon when the first really warm
day arrives.
One cup currant juice, one cup
strong cold tea, one cup grape or
apple Juice. one-half cup maple
SYRUP juice of one lemon, three
small sprigs of mint.
Mix the liquid ingredients to-
gether. Put the mint in O cloth
and twist the cloth tightly to
bruise the leaves. Add the crushed
ice and when ready to serve, add
mint and liquid. Keep near the
cracked ice. If assweeter drink is
perferred, more syrup or a little
sugar may be added to taste. The
recipe may be increased to serve
any number.
The simplest maple sweet to
make is this which resembles
that form of CONNECTION known as
'lxisses." The maple sweets be-
ing more delicate are called
"caresses."
Two cups maple syrup. whites
of two eggs. one-Quarter cup
water.
Boil the syrup and water to-
gefher until the medium hard
ball stage is reached t248 degrees
F1. Pour the syrup slowly over
the beaten egg whites, beating
until the mixture is cool. Drop
by spoonfuls on waxed paper.
Cut candied fruit or chopped nuts
may be added.
Equally simple are these golden
nuggets made OF pure maple and
puffed rice for crispness. But be
sure to crisp the rice:
One cup maple syrup, one and
a half cups puffed rice, one table
spoon butter.
Boil the syrup until it forms a
soft ball in water (23S degrees
F) Remove 1t from the fire, add
the butter and beat until 1t be-
gins to thicken. Add the puffed
rice crisped over heat. Mix thor.
oughly. Drop on waxed paper.
This is q simple sweet easily
made and excellent for children.

Being in Love

DEOPLE in love are not happy,
l. but they always think they
are going to be. Being in love
is a delirious process of gathering
together all imagined happiness,
and believing that some other hui
man being is the sum Of them.
You will be happy when you get
it. The conclusion is almost
mathematical. Millions Of young
people arrive at it, Just as we
did. When we were married we
would be happy ever after.
The number of persons who are
not happy, though married. should
have suggested to us that there
was a flaw somewhere in our rea'
soning. But it didn't-Rose VIII
