KEEP BRIGHT AND YOU
WILL KEEP BUSY
Electric light is the magnet that draws trade.
The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business.
People can no more resist the attraction of a bril
liant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist
the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Electrically illum
inated show windows, bright interior and sparkling
Electric Sign getting an advantage over you?
The moth never flutters around the unlighted
candle! Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop
window lighting a necessity, whether they remain
open after dark or not. Competition forces modern
methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with
Electric light will make many a sale "the night
before.'' Electric light compels attention, makes
easy the examination of your display, shows goods
in detail and fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect the Electric Sign. It is
soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is
lighted burning you name in the public mind. It
is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops
work costs little.
Broiled Oysters.
Lay oysters In shell on the fire
with the deep side down; when hair
cooked turn them. Serve on a hot
plate with a little butter and some lit
tle hot tea biscuits.
Chicken Loaf.
Cut a cold chicken or veal Into dice,
make a white sauce, into which slice
two hard boiled eggs, then add the
chicken and pour into the loar, which
has been prepared, and bake.
Cider for Winter Use.
First let the cider settle In the bar
rel; draw it out, rinse alf the spdp
ment out or the barrel, replace the
cider In the barrel, arter straining It
through a cloth, bung the barrel air
tight, stand it on end and place a
wooden faucet In the upier end, turn
the splggot or p''g ot the faucet so-the
gas rrom the cider can pass through:
take a piece or rubber hose about 12
or 15 Inches long, flt one end tightly
over the open end of the faucet peg
and place the other end of the hose
In a vessel of water. After that don't
disturb the barrel until all the gas has
passed off when It is ready to Itottle
or drink. An old hand at preserving
cider says he has tried several ways
but gets best results from this method.
Ideal Work for Women.
Five years ago Mrs. Burbrldge ob
tained a setting of eggs and raised a
brood or chickens. Now she Is called
the poultry queen or California and
has taken more rlbtnins and cups than
anyone else In the state. She makes
at least $5000 a season or four months
by selling capons. She is trying to
demonstrate that poultry raising Is
ideal work for women. One old wo
man whom she helped with a setting
or eggs two years ago, the chickens
being kept In an old piano box, now
clears $100 a month.
Damp Beds,
The time draws near, alas! when
damp beds become greater elements
or danger than they were In warm
summer weather, though, or course,
at any time a damp bed la to be avoid
ed. In no household should the pre
caution of airing the bed linen before
taking It Into use be omitted, and it
will make the bed more healthy and
more comfortable If an India rubber
hot water bottle, or a stone bottle
cased in flannels, be put In Just, be
fore bedtime. As a final test of
dampness In a bed, put a small look
ing glass between the sheets. Leave
It there for about five minutes, and ir
It Is then taken out with a cloud or
mist upon its surface. It Is a sure
sign that the linen Is not thoroughly
dry. In such a case do not attempt
to sleep between it, for damp bd
linen Is a fruitful source of rheuma
tism and lung afections.
However, the next time It needs
cleaning, try washing It with a mix
ture made by boiling for an hour one
pound or bran In a gallon or water.
This process Is said to keep paints
not only Immaculate, but bright and
glossy as well.
Scalloped Salmon.
Place a layer or cracker crumbs In
a square pan, then a layer or salmon,
sprinkle with salt ami pepper and add
a row bits of butter. Then another
layer of cracker crumbs, salmon, salt,
pepper and butter ami lastly cracker
crumbs. Almost cover with milk and
bake for three-quarters of an hour.
Codfish, Mexican Style.
Fry to a pale yellow one small fine
ly chopped onion In three tabesMM,n
of butter. Add two tablespoons ir
(lour, hair a green pepper chopped
tine and one cupful or stewed and sift
ed tomato pulp. When the sauce
reaches the boiling point add a hair
pound r salt codfish, which has been
freshened for 24 hours In cold wafer
and slowly simmered until It readily
will separate Into flakes.
Preserved Quinces.
Peel and cut some fine ripe apple
quinces In quarters If large In
eighths; remove the core and drop the
fruit as soon as peeled In cold water.
Drain and weigh the quinces; place
them In a kettle of boiling water and
boll until tender; remove with a skim
iiht to a large flat dish. For six
pounds or quinces allow four pounds
or sugar and one quart or the water
the quinces were cooked In; place
water and sugar over the tire, boll
a tew minutes, then add the quinces;
cook five minutes, flit them In Jnrs
to overflowing, close at once and set
aside.
MANY SKUNKS ARE CAUGHT.
The Crop Unusually Good This Year.
Legal Holidays Cut No Ice.
The Corvallls Times says: Crops
never tall in Oregon. The skunk crop
this season Is one or the best In a
decade. Three steel traps set at
Samuel Bane's place, west or town,
the other night, captured three. The
same traps In the same spot the next
night nailed two skunks and a rat.
Dr. lister, however, beat that com
bination when recently, with one
trap, he captured two skunks at a
time. He and Mr. Bane in the last
rew months have trapped a total or
55 or 50. Even a better record was
made by the man who preceded Dr,
I'ster at the Miller poultry farm. Me
captured ten straight at one stump.
One feature of latest captures by
Bane Is that It happened during the
legal holidays, ir the skunks are re
lying on the Governor's proclamation
ror Immunity, they are badly bunc
oed, as business proceeds regularly
at the old stand. Skunk skins are
worth 75 cents to $1.25 each, but the
Times Is not In the market as a buy
er. Tbvy are used tor making rugs
and other adornments and conven
iences, ir soaked long enough In
water, It Is said that the thing which
Is unpleasant about them disappears.

Bishop's Story Brings Results.
The Ulshop of Maryland was much
Interested In uplift work among the
lowly, and maintained a school for
neglected children In one or tie
poorer rpiarters or Haiti more, says
me sun. Among me pupils was a
little girl whose tree use or "swear
words" indicated lamentable condi
Hons In the home circle. On one or
the bishop's visits to the school the
teacher told him or this little girl's
persistent use or proranlty, and asked
him to talk to her about. Iater the
good bishop called the child to him
and, arter putting her at ease by a
few kind and fatherly words told her
how very wrong It was for a little
girl to swear, and hoped she would
not do It any more.
The child, in no wise abashed,
wanted to know of the bishop "who
told him."
"Oh," he said, evasively, "a little
bird told me."
"Well," said the child, with a flash
of quick Intelligence, "I bet It was
one of those d English sparrows."
