The following ; hot weathei sanitary suggestions 1 are timeh and well worth heeding: "The heated t-rm has com menced and more than usua care should be taken by lionet -keepers in the way of sanitary precautions against sickness dur ing the next iew months. j "The kitchen is the most im portant room in the house and it is here one must look for germs of disease They are lurk ing around m every unsuspected corner. lhev hide in tne aisn cloth, they sneak, around any article where mould can possibly form, and they are always near any article that becomes a little spoiled. "Dirt it may be dust or it may be putrid grease on the stove, pans, siiik or noor, or wherever there is dirt, there the small but mighty germ will grow, increase and . multiply until tne numbers are great enough to cause a "dispenation of Provi dence" in the form of diphtheria, scarlet iever or typlioid lever. . "While looking around lor dis ease breeders the filthy sink pipe must noc be overlooked, lor tnat is something which can poison our system slowly, yet surely, and while Jyou are about it take careful notice of the brush with which vou are in the habit of v m cleaning out the sink; it may need to be burned or it may only need a thorough cleaning in car bolic acid water. I have always found it a good plan to pour boil ing hot lye or sal soda water down the sink at least once ev ery week. All the drains and water pipes must be thoroughly looketbafter f the v rnti vv be" hi mg; ing the water from" the sink" and roof all right, but through a faulty connection somewhere be distributing waste water through the soils about the walls, there by poisoning the air which we A t- onen our doors and windows to receive. Or there may be a pool ol stagnant water lormed under the wall or sidewalk someplace that is full of disease-breeding germs. "The garbage and slops just -i . iai i it removed iromtne Kitcnen snouid at once be carried off and dis posed of, and should not be left to get sour and putrid. "Another potent cause of dis ease is the water closet, where there is either a cesspool or an earth box. All such places x t should be frequently disinfected and 1 know oi no other better disinfectant than common air- slacked lime; but it should be used freelv nd often. It should be sprinkled in all dark, damp places around the cellar and out buildings. Here. too. carbolic acid water may be freely sprink led with good effect. When cess- pools or closets are filled they snouid be covered witn lime and then with earth and new ones made, and not left to overflow and poison the air with noxious gases. ' "burelv no higher missionary a a' f work can be conceived than that which removes these life-sapping surroundings irom our homes.

Real Estate Transfers. BIG GAME Bears and Elk Numerous in Lin coln County. For Good Roads. Thfi rural delivery division of the Post Office Department has a force of clerks busy sending Ant rlnilv- thousands of notices to local highway officials through out the country, allmg attention to needed repairs to roans trav bv rural mail earners. The rural delivery service is hfifioming the greatest agency vftt known for the improvement of the highways of the country and the helplul co-operation ui the states which have highway commissioners or other officers is proving highly beneficial. Several months ago, postmas ters at rural delivery offices were required to render reports to the department of the number of iniles of road covered by rural delivery from their respective offices, the material of which the roads were composed and to in dicate from official description those roads urgently needing re pairs and the character of re- pairs required. Last Friday Carl Davis shot and killed a large bear close to the house of Newt Guilliams at Beaver Creek. 'About the time this was hap pening, says the Newport News Reporter, Henry Howell was having great sport down in the Yachaats. While out loosing for birds, armed with a shot gun, he heard a rustling in the brusn and on investigating found him self face to face with a bear. He did "notliav e nTOChtHmridenoein his artillery but he opened fire and the third shot brought bruin down. A short distance irom where he shot this bear he treed another bear. . He opened fire and soon there was another dead bear. It would seem that big game was just hunting for Henry that day for before he got out oi the woods he spied a herd of eight grown elk and three elk calves. Roosevelt could have the time of his life if he would come over and go on a hunt with Henry in the wilds of .Lincoln county. Sarah E.

When Amos Cummings was rapn-a"-in?r editor of the New York Sun, many years ago, an important news story came m late one nignt. ana was sent to the composing room with' "must" written above it, which meant that on no account must the news be left out of the paper. A few minutes after the copy boy re turned to the1 editorial rooms and reported that the foreman had said the paper was already overset and that .two columns of other news would have to be killed if the "must" story was to get in. Cum mings took "the copy from the boy and went himself to the comnosiuj room. Ho demanded an explana tion. The foreman told him that there was a pressure of advertise- ments that night and that they had usurped. some of the space usually o-ivf-n to news. "What shall I kill?" asked the:, foreman. ' "Kill two columns of advertise ments and print all the. news," or dered Cummings, and it was done. ; , The next day there was trouble around -the Sun office. A hurried meeting of the stockholders was called, and it was a stormy one. Some of the stockholders wanted to have Cummings discharged, but Charles A. Dana stood up for him, and as Dana owned the greater part of the stock his voice was all pow erful. . After the meeting Mr. Dana walked out of his office and straight to Cummings' desk. He put his hand affectionately on tne manag ing editor s shoulder and saia. "Amos, you have my permission to throw out advertisements to make room for the news whenever in your opinion it is necessary. We are publishing a newspaper, not an advertising poster." Shortly afterward an improve ment was made in the presses so that' two or more pages could be added to the paper at the last mo ment if necessary. At this week's term of the Benton' county circuit court a case of more than passing inter est is on the docket. It is the ! contest case wherein ex-County Clerk T. T. Vincent questions the recent election of Victor P. Moses to the office. The case was to have been heard a few weeks ago but an error was made in preparing. the necessary pa pers and it was necessary to postpone it. Mr. Moses is in possession of the clerk's office at r.he court house, having taken his seat when the other officials went in, and 'much interest is taken in the case, which will be settled this term. - Mrs. H.

Drove of Piav..;-.. In the American Magazine a writ- ... . T ,1. . er talks about courage. j.n iuo course of his story he tells about a certain respectful father he once knew. Here is what he says : Isn't it time we took off our hats and thanked this pleasant land for the good things it has done for us by going on patiently covering up our blunders, rectifying our mis takes and responding cheerfully to' our every intelligent effort ? "I knew a man who had tne ngni idea about it. His father had made a great fortune in the pork packing business. The heir was not puffed up by his millions. Long after he had grown accustomed to the money and might reasonably be expected to look down on butchers, if in walking in the country witn nia children they saw a drove of hogs on the road, he would make the lit tle boys stand at attention and take off their hats. T want them to re spect the sources of wealth he said." . j Don't Want Too Much. A woodman who was passing through the forest came upon a bear who was rolling over and over on the ground and uttering the most dismal complaints. Bruin had one eye closed and was covered from head to heels with lumps and knobs and knots. "What cheer?" gavly cried the woodman as he drew near. "Bees," moaned the hear. "Tint nature gave vou a coat of fur to protect you from the sting of bees." "So she did." answered the bear, "but she also made me fool enough to want honev iust the same when I was shedding my coat, and every sting would lift me a loot mgn.
