"She tied a string to my leg and hung me on the clothes lines." "Oh!" said Bobby Jones.

TALKS ON DoMEsncScmcE , Br Lilian- TIugle. BY LILIAN TINGLE. Portland. Or.. Jan. 5. Kindly give a recipe for shrimps or lobster a la Newburg, also suggestions for dishes suitable for chafing-dish suppers. Would also like a recipe lor peppermint creams, now can you make the different colored cream wafers? Thanking you In advance. MRS. S. G. S. HRXMPS a la Newburg. The pink shrimps, canned or fresh picked, 3 tablespoons butter, Vz teaspoon salt, a few grains cayenne. 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 14 teaspoons flour, V cup cream. yolks of 2 eggs, 3 tablespoons sherry wine. Ciean the snnmps, cut mem up. if large canned ones are used, cook 3 minutes in 2 tablespoons butter, add the seasonings and cook 1 minute. Add the remaining butter and flour worked to gether, and the cream. Jet tnicaen. then add, the yolks of ssa iishtlj beaten, and stir a, minute to thicken a little, then add tne lemon ana snerry. Serve on toast or in cases. Lobster, clams, crab, or even cold "left over" salmon or halibut may be served "a la Newburg" in a chafing dish with a sauce made as above. Where sherry is not approved use or ange juice: but the dish will not then be really entitled to be called a la Newburg. Almost ' any kind of shell fish or flaked, cooked fish may be simply creamed in the chafing dish or made into a "wiggle" by the addition of an equal quantity of canned or cooked peas, with or without some chopped green peppers. A number of unnamed but very "t.asty" concoctions can be made in a chafing dish on what might be called a hot salad basis. That is, you use the Ingredients (apart from lettuce, of course) that would "go" to gether in' a salad and combine them with cream sauce or Newburg sauce, or poulette sauce, or Hollandaise sauce, in place of ordinary salad dress ing and serve them on toast instead of on lettuce. For instance, a chicken salad with pimiento and olives suggests heating the diced chicken and combining It with an equal quantity of cooked celery, or celery and peas in cream sauce with a little lemon juice and cayenne season ing, and some chopped pimiento and ol ives all mixed and served hot on toast. Other combinations will suggest them selves. Curries are good on the chaf ing dish, and of course ther is a wide range of Welsh rabbit variations. Easy cream peppermint wafers. Mix IVt cups sifted confectioner's sugar with about cup boiling water and 6 drops oil of peppermint. Beat until of consistency to drop from the tip of the spoon. "Fruit coloring paste" may be used to give different colors, and the flavor may be varied to taste. 1b-NlGHfJ I Drusilla Cleana Honse. T WAS late one Summer night when Bobby Jones looked out of his box and inquired of Drusilla what had happened that day in the play room. "We have been cleaning house," ex plained Drusilla, "and looking for moths. This is the time every one is cleaning house and looking for moths. and my little mother said we must clean the playroom and look over my clothes just as her mother and the maid were doing downstairs with the Winter clothes. They had to be brushed and sprinkled with some powder or something that smells and keeps away the moths. , "When all the clothes . had been brushed and put in my little trunk and my muff and neckpiece with them, then my little mother looked around for something else to do, and, seeing Teddy Bear on the floor in the corner she ran over to him and picked him up. 'Teddy has fur on him, she said, "I think we better brush him and put some smelly stun on him, too, he might get moths." "And would you believe It, Bobby Jones, a moth had actually eaten a piece of Teddy Bear's fur on his side. Our Tedly Bear, you know, has real fur, and is not a cheap Teddy at all like most Teddy Bears you see. Well, my little mother ran down stairs with Teddy under one arm and showed her mother tne place on Teddy Bear's side. Yes, a moth did that, said her mother after examining Teddy Bear, and we shall have to give him a beat ing and put something on him to keep the moths away.' Oh! I don t want poor Teddy Bear hurt! Please don't beat him.'" Well, we will Just do it very gent ly,' said her mother, "to beat the bad moths; we will not hurt Teddy Bear.' " If you think they did not beat me you are mistaken, urusiiia, saia Teddy Bear from his corner, "and I think I have had an adventure this time which is as interesting and dreadful as any you have told." Drusilla and Bobby Jones both looked toward Teddy Bear, who looked very forlorn and disgusted also. Why. how in the world could you have an adventure?" asked Drusilla. Well, if it was not an adventure, it certainly was an escape," said Teddy Bear. "I'll tell you and Bobby Jones all about it." Teddv sat up straight and looked very important as he began his story. "As you know, Drusilla, your little mother's nurse took me out in the yard and you heard the big mother tell her to beat very gently. Well, sfi .took, a. sUslt and struck Making: m Summer Now. A LITTLE verse caught my eye the other day that gave me a pleasant thought or two, and so I am passing it on to my reader-friends. passing it on to my reader-friends: You possess the heavenly power That- rejoices in the hour. ' Makes a Summer of its own Blooming late and all alone. The stanza was part of a poem to a late-blooming rose, but it was this one verse that particularly strucK me. It has oulte a lot in It. has it not Is it not really a heavenly power that can get a measure of happiness from each hour that comes? No matter what the hour may seem to nave in its hands, he possesses a rare gift who can look at tne Drignt siae oi us uuoi Ings, who- can see instead of some mo notonous and drudging work the re wards of this work, either material or spiritual, who can perceive in the worry or strain or care, the hour may seem to be bringing, the patience or courage or loyalty the impending trial will develop. Th nbiiitv to rejoice in the hour, whatever that hour may bring forth, to rejoice because one has tne tar-seeing vision that perceives the good under lying the events of that hour, is cer tainly worth while. But much as I like those two lines, I like the last two the best. Makes a Summer all Its own. Blooming late and all alone. Haven't you sometimes seen, when Winter skies were lowering, a solitary rose lifting its sweet face alone on its bush? Hasn't the sight swept you with a glow of admiration? Haven't you really enjoyed its beauty and fra grance more than some great bush of blossoms in June.' Its courage, its cneery sturamess in making a Summer all its own are what touch your heart. You like the way it blooms there, generously filling the air with its fragrance and the eye with its beauty, just as if Summer suns worn shining and Summer breezes blowing. So far as It is concerned it is Summer. It is making its own Summer. It could make no better one for itself in June. Why can't those of us who haven t the normal Summer of life emulate this rose and make a Summer for our selves? Why can't we bring into our lives the fragrance and beauty we nave a right to, if for some reason or other we could not or did not nave it. wueu tViA T.ma nf VOUth Wflfl OUrS. I have often heard women say "1 never had a girlhood like other girls. I never had pretty frocks and parties and beaux and the good times most girls enjoy. I had to work." With others the reason for their roses not blooming in June was poverty or a home in which they coum not emenam nr- Tin RsniMat ps of the kind they want ed. For one reason or another their life in youth was barren of bloom. But does that mean that all beauty and fragrance must be cut out of It forever? They may not indulge in un seemly frivolities of youth, but those things now would give them no pleas ure. . But there is plenty in life yet to bring joy into their days. The do not need to sit and repine and look back to roseless June. They can bloom right now. They can make a Rummer all their own. "And their very blooming will make such a bright spot in the dreary circle of dull. uninteresting middle-aged women that every eye will seek them with delight and everyone passing within tha radiance of their joyous ness wfl pause to admire. They will have a court of more genuine friends and admirers than has the young girl and their late Summer will have more real enduring happiness than the thoughtless, flying hours of June. PRACTICAL AID IS ASKED PLEA MADE FOR. SOLDIER WHO IS PHILIPPINE SERVICE VICTIM. Most Old People Are Constipated The wear of years impairs the action of the bowels. With ad vancing age people are disposed to restricted activity and exer cise, which is responsible for the constipated condition of most -old folks. The digestive organs are more sensitive to the demands made upon them and rebel more quickly. A mild, effective remedy for constipation, and one that is espe cially suited to the needs of elderly people, women and chil dren, is the combination of sim ple laxative herbs with pepsin that la sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 452 Washington St., Monticello, 111. Member of Second- Oregon, Broken In Spirit and Health by Tropics, JVo-nr ' In Trouble aa Result. PENDLETON. Or.. Jan. 14. (To the Editor.) On the average, the American people are fair, just, merciful ana gen erous, ever mlnaiui or lemperanw fortitude nrudence and justice." Er rors occur, heavy misfortune has crushed our fellow-mortals "of the dust," and innocent men have been hanged. However, no other people on earth will go farther in forgiving and helping "seventy times seven times" than Americans. Irr the Spanish-American War. the 1200 men of the Second Oregon Infan try, U. S. A., were the first picked Americans to guard Manila, and they fought bravely in carrying rree civili zation, peace and progress to the 10, noo 000 of more or less benighted Phil ippine people. For their work for their country and the happiness of mankind, the officers and men of the gallant Sec ond Oregon deserve practical gratitude. Service in the tropics, for the ben efit of human liberty, exacted heavy toll on the brave men who followed freedom's starry banner. There was illness from tropical sun and swamp: once rugged strength forever Droaen, and vigorous nerves and minds shat tered. Strong soldiers came back to die at home or inside the sad wans oi puo lic asylums. Tlravelv and cheerfully going far ovef the ocean, following the standard of the Second Oregon, was a strong young man in Company M, recruited from Salem and vicinity. His parents are honored Oregon pio neers, graduates of old WtllameUe Uni versity, veteran teachers, and, for some time, successfully conducting the Ore gon School for the Blind, and his father is president of tne Oregon i-ioneer ou ciety. His brother is a respected Ore gon fruitgrower, his eldest sister, de ceased wife of a Portland physician, was once a revered member of the fac ulty of Willamette University; another sister the wife of a trusted banker of Eastern Oregon, and his youngest sis ter is soon to wed a worthy young bus iness man of this state. Once vigorous, this young man's health was broken by his army service in the tropical Philippines, and after the Second Oregon returned home, he made a pitiful and pathetic effort to succeed again as- a bank clerk. With crippled nerves, mind ana win power, he was accused of immorality. but not of overt acts. Pronounced by Portland alienists to be at least tempo.- raxUy. not mentally responsible, ha was taken for treatment to one of Oregon's creditable-public hospitals, and. recent ly. was discharged from that hospital. Then, the former accusation being brought up, he was doomed to the wretched service of one to 10 years in the Oregon state prison. This plea, for this unfortunate sol dier of the Second Oregon, is unsoliclt ed, absolutely. But it seems clear that some place may eventually be found for him, somewhere In the wide world. where he may be respected and self- respecting. Is there not a good Samar itan who will not forget to extend the strong hand of practical, brotherly help to this wounded soldier, like that noble aid to unlucky mortals being given an hundred so-called "down and out" men. by the mundane angel. Mother Law rence, of Plsgah Home and ranch, near Portland. Will not words and acts aid this American soldier out of darkness into light, because he is not by choice a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but one whose body and mind have been sorely wounded by his service for his country and human freedom. Is he not entitled to that charity which "covers a multitude of sins?" "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." On his behalf, will it not be noble, and of eternal reward to merciful ones, prac tically to remember him, helpfully, as one of our brothers, "beneath life's crushing load, whose forms are bend ing low, who toil along the climbing way with painiui steps ana glow." JOHN W. ELLSWORTH. J. W. FERGUSON REMOVED GOVERNOR SAYS MOVE IS "FOR THE GOOD OF THE SERVICE." Insurance Commissioner Submits Copies of Report to Show Decreased Department Expense. 6TATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) Having, declined to resign, J. W. Ferguson, Insurance Commis sioner, was notified today by Governor Withycombe that his official duties would cease next Wednesday when Harvey Wells, of Portland, would take charge of the department. Upon receipt of the letter removing him Mr. Ferguson said he was ready to turn the office over to Mr. Wells when he qualified. Pointing to the phrase in the letter that he was re moved "for the good of the- service," Mr. Ferguson remarked: "Why didn't he say that in the first place? I shall take pleasure in turning the office over to mv successor." Replying to the Gov ernor's letter he said that he would get out at any time desired. He in closed . copy of his biennial reports for 1911 and 1912 and 1913 and -1914, showing a decrease in expenses of the department for the past two years oi $4668.28. Governor Withycombe's letter removing the Commissioner was as follows: "You are hereby notified that In the Judgment of the Oovernor the good of the service requires your removal from the Commlsslonership of the de partment of Insurance of the State -ot Oregon. This is to notify you that commencing at noon, Wednesday, Jan uary 20, 1915, the appointment oi Harvey Wells will be effective, and to request you to turn over the office to him at that time." Governor Withycombe based his action upon the belief that Mr. Fergu son was not in sympathy with the administration and as a consequence the best results could not be obtainea.
