Why wait another day?

Go boldly forward to the call,
Stand Ike hero on the wall
Proclaim salvation to the lowest,
Don't mind the storm, the wind, the

The harvest time will come someday,
When you will cease to work or pray
When the Master will say, it is

What is the secret Of first-rate coffee
the kind that starts the day right
that makes you feel "Iike million
dollars"?
Literally hundreds Of women-and a
surprising number of men--have asked
me this question in one form or an
other. And it's an important one-for
what can be more blighting to domestic
happiness than cup of muddy coffee
or coffee improperly "creamed"? And,
on the contrary, what can be more ex-
hilarating than good up-fragrant,
golden, delicious?
Luckily there's no hidden secret
about making and serving the perfect
cotfee-it's just matter of minding
your p's and as and following a few
simple directions.
Selection Of Coffee
There are many excellent brands of
coffee in the market--the choice Of one
of these is largely a matter of individ-
uai taste. But I do want to say that
usually coffee in the bean retains it's
favor longer than in the ground form
SO, if possible, buy the whole beans
and grind your coffee fresh for each
meal If, however, the breakfast hour
or fifteen minutes-is too hectic to
admit of this extra step, at least keep
your ground coffee in an air tight con-
tainera glass fruit jar for instance.
And it's well to remember that the
more finely the coffee is ground, the
easier it is to extract its full strength
and favor-consequently Underground
coffee is economical and time-saving.
The Coffee Pot
Connoisseurs maintain that coffee
brewed in a metal pot has a less deli
cate flavor than in container of glass,
stone-ware or agate. Whatever kind
Of coffee pot you prefer-it should be
secured frequently and occasionally
"boiled out" with water to which a
pinch of baking soda has been added
then rinsed, dried, and left uncovered.
II a perco1ator is used, the pipe
should be carefully washed every day
with brush to remove all scum from
the preceding brew.
For drip coffee, IL you do not have a
special drip coffee pot, an ordinary one
equipped with double cheesec1oth
bag will serve the purpose. The cheese
cloth should be washed in cold water
after using and renewed at least once
week Keep the bag always moist.

This consider quite IS important as
the actual brewing. Good coffee can so

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK !?
BY Edison r. Waite
Shawnea- Ola.


United States Senator Frank B.
willis, Of Ohio, says:
THAT an American working man
earns as much in q day as a foreign
worker in the same employment earns
in week
THAT the reason why living is
cheaper in Europe is not because food
costs less, but because Europeans
have to get along with fewer things.
THAT in a recent contest in great
agricultural state 20 farmers were
chosen through a careful system Of
grading as being the best farmers
in that state, and of these 20 every
one owned an automobile, Is had
electric washing machines, 10 had
electric irons, 16 had electric light
and power plants, Ia owned trucks
and Is owned tractors.
THAT American farmers are the orly
farmers in the world that have cleo
tric lights in their barns and pianos
i'll their parlors.
THAT American working men are the
only wage earners on the face OF the
Garth that ride to their work in auto
mobiles and listen to grand opera
over their own radios.
IF WE would all quit grabbing and
grouching and do our part in cheer
ing cur neighbor on his pathway, we
would realize that this country is the
best place on earth to live, favored
by the blessings of the Almighty as
no other nation since the beginning
of time

OUR IMPORTS

Congressman Rainey, Of Illinois,
has become a prophet of business dis
aster He predicts business slump
in the United States and in a recent
statement says:
Our balance of trade for the cal
endar year 1926 was only $350,000,
600. In recent months we have been
compelled to import gold in consider
able amounts for the first time since
the war We are investing more
money than ever abroad. The loans
and investments we made abroad in
1926 exceed billion dollars We
are rehabiliating the industries of Eu-
rope In 1928 the production in Eu-
rope will be normal, greater perhaps
than pre-war production"
Congressman Rainey has been re-
garded as low tariff man but in the
above statement he is asserting facts
which go far to sustain the position
Of the protective tariff advocates.
Certainly the things which he asserts
as true do not out the dire predictions
of the free traders who only few
months ago We're telling US that our
protective tariff and oar policy Of
making Europe pay its debts would
bankrupt Europe and eventually the
United States for the reason that our
imports would be cut down and our
foreign trade proportionately reduc-
ed.
Europe is sending us more goods
constantly with each succeeding
month. Our balance of trade has
dwindled as Congressman Rainey
states, and this in spite of our tariff
which has been characterized by its
enemies as the last word in high
duties.
AS amatter Of fact our tariff in
some instances Is not protective
enough. That is why our textile
mills have been producing less. TIL.
shelves Of our retail stores are filed
with imported goods, and certain ag-
ricultural products, are coming in in
great quantities from South America
to the detriment of our farmers.
1t is true that a great deal Of Am
erican money is being loaned abroad.
That this money is going abroad
proves that it can be invested in Eu-
1opeeon the assumption that Europe's
markets will be broadened and that
the United States will take con-
stantly increasing quantity Of Eu-
ropean goods.
The remedy for the conditions
which Congressman Rainey sets out
is iudicious increase in the pro-
lection of certain Of our commodities.
agricultural and manufactured, and
not lower in a tariff
There is no present indication that
any serious slump IN our present
prosperity is imminent. But if it
comes it will be not the result of our
Eigh tariff but Of the fact that our
tariff is not high enough in certain
schedules.
