Forced To Yield Bottle.
Last August a man died nt
Kalama, Washington, under cir
curnstances jxjculiar. When iound
his room was on fire but no signs
of violence were seen.
Coroner li. V. Wicker, now of
St. Johns, held an inquest. A
small bottle of white powder was
found by the coroner in the dead
man's room and this was taken
by Mr. Wicker who has since re
tained it.
The widow has been having
trouble In getting the $10,000 for
which O. M. Kosenclale was in
sti red the company refusing to
nay on what it deemed a suicide
The company has also been very
anxious to get hold ol the bottle o
powder but Mr. Wicker has stead
ily refused to yield it.
Last Saturday an order was
issued from the federal court which
could not be iiiiiored. The bottle
was turned over to the court on
Tuesday but precautionary meas
ures were taken to avoid attorneys
for the insurance company tamper
nir with the contents. It wouh
be a very easy matter to Inject
jwisoii in the bottle where so large
ti stun was at stake even if the
present contents were harmless.
The court has ordered mi iinaly
sis of the powder.

boiled in pure soft water.
String beans usually need to boil
forty-fivo minutes. The addition of
small bit of salt pork will general
ly minimize any rank flavor und will
improve them. When done dram
thoroughly, season with Bait, pepper
and butter.
Turnips, carrots, cabbngc nnd on
ions fchotild be boiled in a great deal
of water and taken up immediately
and drained when sulllcicntly done.
Overcooking destroys the taste, and
too little wntcr will allow them to
turn dark in color.
A very little sugar added to toma
toes, squash, peas, corn, beets nnd
turnips will improve them.
Turnips will cook more quickly
when cut into thin slices; otherwise
thev will need to cook a long time.
Cauliflowers should bo tied in a
net to prevent boiling to pieces.

The Oust Cloth.
A damp cloth is the best of al
dusters, nltliom-li many women wil
not use it on any account, claiming
that it injures the polish on the itir
niturc. Tills objection is absurd
for if tho cloth is clean it will not

To Avoid Taking Cold.
Stop worrying about diseaso
germs, which you cannot cscnpo any
how, and fortify your system against
them by hardening processes. Keep
thu foot dry nnd avoid sitting in
drafts when heated. Harden the
body by reasonable exposure to cold
air and cold water. Then you wil
never have a cold, ami tho grip nni
pneumonia germs will nover bother
you.

Uso yolk of eggs with a bit of bak
