Dennett has an excellent article on infantile paralysis, the scourge that so many physicians fear will return with the warm weath er. Among other things Doctor Den nett says: "It is impossible to tell, when the child is first taken with the disease, what the eventual outcome is to be. Even those who are most completely paralyzed at the start occasionally be come entirely well; whereas, paralysis that is very slight in the beginning may show no later improvement, even with the most faithful treatment. It is never too late, however, to 3tart some sort of treatment, even for the little ones who have had their infan tilo paralysis. for a long while, and who have not had the advantage of any special treatment afterward. One never knows how much can be done until one has tried, and it is only fair, at any stage of the paralysis, to give the child the benefit of science, no matter how discouraging the outlook may seem.'' TODAY'S WAR RECIPE. (From Britain's official win-the-war cook-book.) Bacon Soup One onion, two table spoonfuls of maize rice or barly flour, three quarters of a teacupful of rice, half a pint of milk, two carrots, tablespoonful margine or dripping, pint and a half of water in which ba con has been boiled. Fry the onion (chopped small) in the fat, stir in the flour smoothly, and add gradually enough cold milk to form a smooth paste. Add the rest of the milk and a pint of the bacon water. Wash the rice. Scrape the carrots and cut them into long, thin shreds. Boil the rice and carrots in the remaining bacon water, adding more water if neces sary. When these are done, do not strain off the water in which they have been boiled, but add the entire contents of the saucepan to the rest of the soup. Simmer for ten minutes or longer, stirring occasionally. Four Hundred Acres Planted to Beans Lincoln, June 14. (United Press) Four hundred acres planted to beans is the "bit" recently done by W. E.

IntheArena of Sports Doney Bush, Tiger Shortstop Among the shortstops of the Ameri can league none has a better record for reaching first base than Owen (Doney) Bush of the Detroit team.

Jennings, dls Kiuiitled over the poor showing of Ills Tigers, displaced Bush from the top of the batting order, which be had held sbice Joining the team. Ilughey, how ever, soon changed bis mind, and Bush U again lend off num. If the rest of the Detroit team was playing as well as Bush the Dctrolts would be higher ud in the standing of the clubs. Jack Murray Released. Outfielder Jack Murray has been un conditionally ..released 'by the New York Giants under the "ten years' service" rule, which says that major league player of ten years- experience cannot be sent to the minor lengues without his consent. This is the second time that Murray has been released by the Giants under the same rule. After he got his first releaso from New York Murray signed with the Cubs. Later be was released to Toronto of the In ternational league, where he played brilliant ball. Murray secured his un conditional release from Toronto last winter, presumably to accept the man agement of a minor league club, but later signed with the Giants. Brainard Slugger. Freo Brainard, who was tried out at third base by McGraw iiist season. bids fair to be the leading long dls- tnnee bitter of the International league this senson. Brainard now is a mem ber of the Montreal flub, playing at second base. Agrigraphs A good form of borne guardln' is the home garden. Plowing an acre of land in four min utes seems like a dream, but it has been done with three tractors hitched to fifty-four plows. Consuming 3,000 plant lice in forty minutes muy not bo a record perform ance for a bird, but the yellow war bler that did it is worth protecting. "The home garden coupled with the smoke house will beat a grocery store when it comes to furnishing a good farm meal," says the Mississippi A. and M. college. In checking up the wastes remember tho poultry parasites. Lice and mites keep many a pound of meat and ninny an egg out of production. Put crude oil in the poultry house crevices and around the roosts and whitewash the whole place. 4. 4. .J. .j. 4- LITTLENESS OF MAN.

There is nothing better than pure white vase line for promoting the growth of the eyelashes and eyebrows, says the Farm and Fireside. Apply it with a Bmnll brush, being enreful not to get It into the eyes, and brush the eyebrows vigor ously every day to promote circulation and stimulate the growth of hulr. It is best to apply the vaseline at night and wash it off iu the morning. Care of the Teeth. Once a day is not often enough to brush your teeth. It must bo done three times a day to keep the teeth in good condition. However, no matter how often one brushes the teeth or how clean they appear to be, it is well to visit a dentist once or twice a year aud have them thoroughly cleaned. Treatment For Blackheads. For blackheads wash the face thoroughly every night, using first hot then cold water. The hot water will soften the black part, which is nothing more than an accumulation of dust which hns set tied on the tops of the little pores of the skin. These pores have become choked with perspiration, ami you must niassago your face wheu washing so that this accumulation is loosened, and blood from underneath tho surface will force it out 'with your assistance from the outside. Twice a week apply a good cold cream. To Abolish Pimples. Pimples are usu ally the result of iuiproiier eating and not enough exercise and sleep. Eat simple food, lots of milk and eggs, fruit and fresh vegetables, see that you are not constipated, get eight hours of sleep dally and take exercise frequently in the open air. To Waah Blankets. Put a pint of household ammonia and a pint of warm water iu a tub, lay the blanket iu and pour a little warm water over it Just enough to wet the top folds, Cover closely and allow the blanket to stand for a few moments, thut the fumes arising from tue ammonia may loosen the dirt, then wash aud dry It in the ordinary way iu water of the same temperature as the first used. Pass the blanket lightly through the wringer and hang it out to dry. Farm Journal. MUSIC. When I hear music I fear no danger. I am Invulnerable. I sco no foe. I am related to the earliest times and to the latest. Thorcau. Just as gymnastic exercise Is necessary , to keep tho body healthy, so is musical exercise necessary to keep the soul healthy. The proper nourishment of the intellect and passions can no more take place without mu sic than the proper functions of tho stomach and the blood with out exercise. riato. w ra i. i"v' Inspiration Miscellany Serving the Public Borne men are natural "Jin era;" some re not Some "Jlne" to have another place to loaf where they can throw more bricks at Father Time; some have another reason. And It la inter esting to see how many men within the last few years have swelled the lat ter class. How many times within the last Are years hare we read of the election of a central station general manager to be the president of the chamber of commerce In the community be serves. How many times some company's sales manager or salesmen, because be has been active in civic work, has been made bead of this or tbat committee of the board of trado or put upon the board of education or given other work to do for the people. And what reward it brings! The very nature of the .man who heads or represents a public utility puts a premium on friends and reputation. He must stand before bis city as a fair and honest man. He must gljje confidence and Influence by example if he would hopo to be successful In the winning of bis public to the new ways of doing it electrically bis mission, In the business be Is in.

Electrical Merchan dising ' Don't Mope Do you allow yourself to become ab seutmluded, wrapped up in a brown study? Look nbout you. Speak to those you have been in tho bablt of Ignoring. Make friends with every one. Strive to touch life everywhere ycj can. You will accomplish your tusks better by so doing than by going forward blindly absorbed in meditation or engrossed by internal musings. Most people waste a large amount of power through misapplying their own energy. Perhaps more power is lost through lack of direction, through lux, negative habits of thought and action, which lead to a life of general drlftbig than in any other way. Then power leaks out through worry,, fear, envy and mental friction, l'ou cannot con serve power and have plenty for all legitliualo purposes if you are con stantly fighting something. The over, indulgence of the emotions will more quickly dissipate power than anything else. To ullow the thought to dwell contin uously on action which is inexpedient J or which for any reason ones Judg ment condemns Is also the source of a great deal of power waste. Do not let your thoughts uud your acts ru con trary to euch other. Put your will on the side of what you decide to do. Nautilus. Cheerfulnees. Cultivate a cheerful disposition. If a pel son determines early In life that a cheerful disposition Is worth having and strives to obtuln It and does so that person Is a success in a fine sense of the word. Of course comparatively few men and women ever stop to think about success In chls form, but if they will acquire the habit I will guarantee a larger measure of satisfaction thnn they may have- met with before. Ix;lgh Mitchell Hodges. Keep Your Eye on the Present. Finish every day und he done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities, 110 doubt, crept in. Forget them as soou as you can. Tomorrow Is a new day, begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. Today all Is good and fair. It Is too dear with its hopes and invita tions to wuste a moment on the yester days. Emerson. Appreciation. Love never seems so clear nnd ensy as when the heart is beating faster nt the sight of some generous, self risk ing deed. We feel, no doubt, . then what Is the highest prize the soul can wlu; we almost believe in our owu power to attulu It. George Eliot. W!VWf f ?!S Wf St? f VtHSVt w Jf KEEP CLIMBING.
