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.

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.
