OREGON DRY. Noted Lecturer, Next Number Y. M. C. A. High School Course. DR. JAMES S. KIRTLEY. Dr. James S. KlrUey, Chicago, who has written a very interesting book en titled "That Boy of Yours" and who for years has made a study of Ibe boy and bis needs, Is to lecture here on "The Barefoot Kingdom." Dr. Klrtley, however. Is not only an mitlior mid an authority on a subject of vital Interest and importance, but he Is also a most fluent speaker. Dr. A. K. du Itlois of Boston has well de scribed till lecture ou "Tho Barefoot Kingdom" when he said: "It sparkled with rare wit. It charmed by Its beau ty of Imagery. Alwve all. it ns thought provoking and life Inspiring." The metropolitan papers hnve re viewed Dr. Kirtley's book most favor ably, among them the New Vork Times. New York Kxaminer. Chlengo Hera kl. Chicago Tribune; also such That Oregon voted dry was inevit able. Two facts contributed to it. First the small retailer and mer chant believe they have profited through prohibition. The collapse that was supposed to have followed the prohibition movement did not come. The butcher, tho baker, the candlestick muker, the grocer, say they found that collections were bet ter, that people had more money to spend. They voted dry to keep money from being sent out of tho state. Secondly, the Brewers' amendment resulted in the bone dry amendment being put on the ballot. The people wanted to swat that and they did, and incidentally voted bono dry in ordor tc show tho brewer that they ware dono with the wet and dry issue for once and all that he was one man who. couldn't "come back." A great many like the ex-saloon keepers voted dry becnuse they be lieve two stringent a measure may cause a reaction in favor of a wet state. That may bo true it remains tc be seen. A great many men who have bena fitted personally by having their sup ply of liquor curtailed voted dry. The enforcement of the law will bo difficult and expensivo but the coming of complete prohibition both state and national seems inevitable. We might as well swear off now rather than "taper off." The government of Wuertemberg proposes to subsidize parents of large families. The daddies will receive this news with much colnt. A Chicago doctor has discovciv.nl an nuti lazy serum. If aii the lazy people buy it and take it, he will make a fortune. An extra allowance of corn in tho evening feed fr liens when the night promises to be severely cold is pretty good "egg Insurance." Buckwheat Is another good addition to the diet In cold weather, but It Is not relished like other grains. . Visit the houses at night and break up the habit some birds have of Bleep ing beneath the roosts. Teach them to roost on tho perches, but first pro vide sufficient perch space for them. Fowls only require about eight lineal Inches of perch space per bird, but It la better to allow twelve inches. It Is sometimes very hard to part with a flock of surplus cockerels, yet those who raise chickens for a profit cannot afford to be "chicken hearted." It Is poor policy to winter more male birds than are required for next sea son's breeders, plus those you feel rea sonably certain to sell at a fnlr price. It does not take male birds long to eat up the profits they might have brought, and then some. Besides, they require bouse space Mint might be de voted to more profitable tenants lay ers. Nine to twelve days In the fat tening pen, with all the cornmeal mash they will eat three times a day, with plenty of water and grits, will put them In fine condition for the market. Keep the coop dark except at meal times, so there will be no Inducement to exercise. Cannery Project Talked Of. Eugene. Ore., Nov. 13.( Special) ' A train load of citizens of McMinn- DR. JAMES S. KIRTLEY. journals as the Chicago Advance, tbe Baptist World of Louisville, the Bibli cal World and the Survey. The Re view of Reviews pronounces this book particularly suggestive and entertain ing, and Bishop Qnayle said to Dr. Klrtley, "You have done boyhood and tho pnrents of boys a distinct service." Perhaps It would be more accurate to say that Dr. Kirtley's hobby In gen eral Is People, and he specializes on Boys. As the bachelor pastor of the Delmnr Avenue Baptist Church In St. Louis, ho had a Boys' Brigade when that movement was at its height Every Thursday evening ho gave up to the boys. In t lie summer be took them out camping. Ills lecture. "In the Barefoot King dom," is always recognized as different from anything ever given by any one else. As one Chautauqua secretary said Inst summer. "I've henrd all the boy lectures, but this Is different," and. as the McConnellsvillc lO I Democrat said. "It Is the most unique, the most Interesting, the most practical Roy lee. ture we ever heard." Some one has also truly said of Dr Klrtley. "Ills two special characteristics are orlglna'lty and dnlutv humor." Removing Common Stains. Alcohol will not spoil the most deli cate material and Is safe to use in most cases where the source of tho stain is unknown. Orass stains and pitch will yield readily If the stained clothing Is rubbed with a cloth soaked In alcohol. To remove Iron rust nnd scorches on white clothing cover the spots with lemon Julio and salt and leave for awhile In the sun. Scalding milk is often more useful In dissolving stains hi cotton and linen where hot water and soap would fail. Bloodstains usually disappear if washed In soap and tepid water, but in caso of stub born stains kerosene Is frequently help ful. A paste of two parts of soft soup and powdered starch, one part of salt and lemon juice to moisten will remove mildew. The pnsto should lie spread on both sides of the cloth, which should then be left In the sun to dry. Chloroform is best for removing pnlut stains dried Into the cloth. If the stains nro still wet benzine will re-, movo them. K neither of these sub stances arc at hand turpentine- plus patience will dissolve paint. When fruit or acid stains have taken the color out of colored goods ammo- iiiln will frequently restore the color. I A raw potato rubbed on black goods will remove slight stains, and blnck goods sponged with strong black coffee to which a few teaspoonfuls of ammo nia hnve been added will look like new. To remove grease spots on silk lay tho silk between blotters right side down nnd press with a very hot Iron. Ether, benzine or chloroform will rem edy bad grease stains. Wagon grease or machine oil spots should be covered with lard, left to sfnnd two or three hours, and then washed with soap and cold water.
