 QUESTIONS and ANSWERS,
 Pineapple.
 Kindly tell me if raw pineapple eaten often has any Fl effect? Has it any effect on reducing? Miss S. J.)
 Answer-Pineappl fresh oi canned is a wholesome, healthful food and has no ill effect of any kind. Of course 1t has food value. It is silly to imagine that certain foods, such as lemons, pickles, etc, reduce.

 Some time ago you recommend cd something aS an ant-acid for stomach acidity. I believe 1t was chalk, but I have lost the clipping . (Mrs D. J. WI
 Answer-Yes, prepared chalk also called calcium carbonate, Is alkalis. Ten grains will neutralize excessive acidity for an hour or more.

Mascara on the lashes in the evening does something in the way of adding glamor and charm to almost any pair of eyes. yet there is no cosmetic women are so shy of trying.
 This timdity may be partly due to the general belief that mascara is particularly hard to apply. There is little trick to 1t, but an easy trick that every beauty seeker should learn.
 First of all, do not use mascara in the daytime except most apar- ingly-unless, that is, you have lashes and brows that are com pletely colorless. Or, of course, unless you are deliberately going in for the exotic and unnatural at all hours. Nothing gives more made-up look than a lavish out lay of mascara in broad daylight.
 Avoid Beads.
 Next put the preparation on the lashes of the upper lids, but never on the lower lids. And when you've finished with the lashes, use the same brush for the brows. They always need

Many women write asking how to use sour milk in baking. We'll, milk that has just turned will need Q small amount of soda to neutralize it and enough bak- ing powder to leaven the mixture, or in other words, to make 1t "rise." An eighth of a teaspoon to quarter of teaspoon of soda to a cup of slightly soured milk and the usual amount of baking powder called for in the recipe using sweet milk should be used when sour milk is substituted.
 The acidity of the milk must be considered and when milk is thic kand definitely sour, the gen. eral rule is to use one-half tea spoon soda for one cup of sour of tartar or two teaspoons bak- ing powder from the recipe.
 Use of Baking Soda
 Baking soda by itself is not or dinarily to be recommended as n leaven, although it often is used alone and satisfactorily, too, Tn making ginger breads, spice and chocolate cakes and cookies.
 There's always question about whether soda should be used dry and sifted with the dry ingredients or mixed with liquid and added the last thing before baking. If you mix an sift the dry ingredi- ents thoroughly. repeating the process several times until you arc sure that the soda is evenly dis tributed through the flour, you will find the result satisfactory. If 1t isn't thoroughly mixed and sift- ed you will find tiny brown spots through your baked stuff. The product will not be light and the brown spots will have a bitter, un- pleasant taste. When the soda is moistened in a liquid there's no danger of insufficient mixing al- though some of the lcavening gas- es escape before they can act on the mixture to be baked.
 MOIasses Cookies
 These cookies are made without eggs, and are deliciously old-fash- toned, sure to please the men of the family. The cookies are soft and puffy.
 One-half cup butter, 1-2 cup lard or other shortening, cun graduated sugar, 1 cup baking molasses, 1-2 cup sour milk, i ta- blespoon ginger, ? teaspoons soda, 1-2 cups flour. 1-2 teaspoon salt.
 An extra amount of soda is used in this rule because of the molas- ses.
 Cream shortening and slowly beat in sugar. Mix and sift flour salt and ginger. Dissolve tea spoon soda in molasses and add to first mixture. Add half the flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Dis solve remaining teaspoon soda ir sour milk and stir into mixture Mix thoroughly and add remaining flour. Roll on floured board into sheet about 3-S inch thick and cut with a fioured cookie cutter Bake twelve minutes in a mod crate oven.

Also, the Governor went on in his

how the wicked twin city papers

that he was going to be replaced

NICHOLAS THOMEY
FOR
COUNTY AUDITOR
Stearns County, MINI.
General Election Nov. 6, 1884
Your Vote and Support viii be
Appreciated

In running business successful
ly the most important phase of the
management is to properly handle
the finances. The same is true of
city, county, state or nation. Thus
the office of County Auditor is one
calling for large ability and exper-
fence as well as an integrity of
character beyond criticism. Such a
man is Nicholas Thomey who is
Auditor of Stearns County. It is
indeed wonderful to contemplate
how he can open his books at any
moment and tell you exactly how
the county stands financially when
most of us cannot do that with our
own little exchecquer. The intricate
details of such position would be-
wilder any but the initiated and ex-
perienced. In fact, to other than
experts like this man it is appalling.
But to him it is just part of the
days work, for he has long since
mastered those problems and de-
veloped highly efficient methods of
acquitting himself of his arduous
duties. A financial debaucle such
as we sometimes hear of happening
in certain communities, could never
occur in this county so long as he
is here to keep such an accurate
log of its financial voyage. He may
properly be termed as a real guard
ian of the county's greatness and
stolid strength. =

pathy for the downtrodden and the
oppressed. Little children who do
not have adequate clothing and
people who do not have enough to
eat anguished the heart of the Gov
ernor for fifteen minutes or more.
II know of many families in Min
nesota whose children do not go
to school, they are ashamed to
send them to school because they
do not have decent clothing to
wear" the Governor tearfully de-
clared.
Well anyhow, Governor, 1t must
be comforting to you to know that
you have taken care of the Braat-
land family with $1015 or $12, 1S0
per year. Their little children will
not be compelled to go to school
this winter with their toses stick
ing out of their shoeses.
At Slayton, and doubtless at many
other places, the Governor told the
people that he wasn't so much in
terested in politics. Relief was the
thing that interested him. "This is
the greatest thing I've ever been
in" he said. IT wish there wasn't
any political campaign. AS mat

FARMER-LABOR

Gov. Floyd B. Olson is consider
ed one of the nations leading lib
erals with whom President Roose-
welt has surrounded himself" Con-
gresham Paul J. Kvale, Farmer
Labor candidate for reelection, de-
clared in a talk in which he pointed
out the similarity of the Farmer
Labor program and that of Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
"Not all persons bearing strict
party labels can be depended upon
to put over the features of the new
deal, and President Roosevelt dis
covered this long ago." Congress
man Kvale stated. Many strictly
party men have been found to gum
up the machinery and, consequent
ly, the President has been forced to
call upon the liberals of the nation,
such as Senator Nye, of North Da-
kota, Senator Norris, Of Nebraska,
Senator Hiram johnson, of Cali
fornia, and Governor Olson"
Pointing out that "the eyes Of
the nation are upon Minnesota with
a expectation that the governor will
be given a friendly legislature and
state executive council" Congress-
man Kvale urged that progressives
of the state pay particular atten-
ton to the election of liberal can
didates to the state legislature and
to the offices of state auditor, state
treasurer and secretary Of state. so
that a liberal, progressive executive
council will be formed to aid Gov
ernor Olson in his progressive prin-
ciples. He said that the people of
Minnesota have placed into office
liberal and progressive governor
in Olson but that they have "tied
his hands" by not giving him leg
islature and executive council to
help carry out the enactment of his
principles.
while we, as thinking citizens,
gave him the responsibilities Of
governorship and demanded of him
that he keep his promises, we neg
