Mr. and Mrs. Bert Rann and son of Portland spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Harbison. Served Turn Only as Symbol of Kindness Mr. Smith, writes a contributor to the Youth's Companion, had made particularly good catcl of black bass. Mrs. Smith picked out a nice big one and sent one of the boys with it over to their neighbors in the adjoining cump. "We won't bother to clean It for them," she said, "because that big boy of theirs can do It just as well as we can." A few days later the grateful neighbor, not to be outdone, re turned the favor by bringing across to the Smith's back door a nice juicy raspberry pie freshly made from the wild raspberries growing In the woods behind the camps. That day the storekeepe- across the lake bad his weekly shipment of ice cream from the city, and none of the Smiths felt much like eating pie. The next day they all went on a trip down the stream, and the third day when the pie was served It had become so soft and soggy that everyone refused to touch it. Wrapping it up carefully in a news paper, so that no one should see It, Mrs. Smltb gave It to young Tom and asked him to take it out in the woods and bury It. The next morning Mr. Smith went out to dig worms for his day's fish ing. As he turned up the moist earth there, lying side by side, sym bols of neighborly kindness, were the black bass and the raspberry pie. New Microscopes That Have Marvelous Power The great world of little things revealed by the microscope Is about to become greater still, for new In struments have been Invented which have enormously Increased the mag nifying power which Is at man's command. News of a new microscope which will magnify an object over 600,000,000 times, or &,000 diam eters, has lately come from two sources at once. One such instru ment has been Invented by Doctor Siedentopf of the famous Zeiss firm of Jena; another capable of giving even greater magnification, has been perfected by N. D. (,'hopra, a British metallurgist, who has al ready solved with It the problem of avoiding oorrosion In train mils, a discovery which will save enormous sums of money In all countries. A good microscope of moderate power will magnify an object about 600 diameters, or 360,000 times in square measure. Such a mnimlflca tion as this Is difficult to imagine, but some idea of the power of the new instruments may be gathered from the fact that a tennis ball, If It could be viewed through tbem, would appear about one and a half miles in diameter. My Magazine. London. Inconvenient "Currency" Economists tell learnedly why money makes the commercial world go round, but a Parisian opera singer of a decade ago learned the lesson in one classic experience. She was determined to tour the world thoroughly and she stopped over in the Society Islands, where her manager contracted to have her sin? for one-third the receipts. Her share of "the box office" was 3 pigs 22 turkeys, 41 chickens. 5,000 coco nuts and an unrnmputerl quantity of bananas and orHnges. She couldn t convert her proceeds, the natives had no money. She fed the fruit to the animals and donated her banryard to the community when she sailed away. First Coinage of Silver 8Ilver was first coined on the Isle of Aeglna. Here the ancient Greeks BtamDed a turtle on their first sll ver coins over 700 years before the Chrlstlnn era. The first silver coins In the United States were Issued by the Massachusetts colony, which minted small sliver coins, familiarly known as the pine-tree shillings. The mint was closed by order of the crown In 1684. The first coins made by the United States government were dated 1793. Color Blindness Permanent Color blindness Is not curable, and sometimes exists In eyes that are otherwise normal. It Is found In 8 or 4 per cent of men and less than 1 per cent of women. It Is r,a.Hnlnrlv tinnnrtnnt thnt rMllwnv and marine employees do not have this defect, since the safety of the traveling public depends In a large measure upon the accuracy with which red and green signals are observed. Buttoni Denote Rank A button Is worn on the headgear of Chinese officials, both civil and military, as a badge of rank. There are nine ranks, the first and highest being distinguished by a transpar ent red (ruby) button; the second by opaque red (coral) ; the third by transparent blue (sapphire) ; the fourth by transparent white (orys- tal) ; the sixth by opaque white ; the seventh by plain gold; the eighth by worked gold, and the ninth by plain gold with a certain character engraved upon It. Bold Forgeries The name "Ireland Forgeries" Is given to certain Shakespeare auto graphs, private letters and plays, which a youth named Ireland claimed to have-, discovered, but which he had In reality forged. One of the j)lays, called "Vortigprn," was pi$duced at the Drury Lane theatetf April 2, 1796, but proved to be a vapid and senseless production. Ireland soon after acknowledged the forgery and published his "Con fessions" In 1805. Kansas City Star. in hot rate Keeping well in hot weather Is largely a matter of using common sense in aiding the body to carry on its normal functions in a normal way. The human body possesses wonderful means of keeping the body tempera ture constant, even under extremes of heat and cold. But like any other automatic mechanism, you cannot ex pect it to act satisfactorily if you overload it or overdrive it, when it is already under a strain. When the weather is hot, the sur face blood vessels are expanded and the sweat glands bathe the body with perspiration.- By evaporation, the skin ib cooled the rapidity and de gree of cooling depending on the rate that the air is moving. Drafts are harmless in summer, unless the cool ing of the body is too rapid. A fan is as useful "to the human machine 88 it is to an automobile. A daily bath keeps the pores open. Light clbthing aids in rapid evapora tion of the perspiration. Some exer cise is essential, but over exertion in the hot sun should be avoided. The matter of diet is one of importance. The Eskimo eats heartily of fats and oils. .His tropic brother lives largely on fruits and vegetables." There is a reason. Fats, sugars,' and starches are heat producing. Nature gave us green vegetables and fruit in abund ance during the summr season. Over eating overloads the system. Eat moderately of a varied diet. Ice cream, sodas, and sundates may sat isfy the palate and temporarily cool the throat, but they are heat produc ing, nevertheless. Food spoils more quickly in hot weather on account of the rapid growth of the- organisms of decay. Be careful when away from home that the food served is not tainted; that fruit is not over-ripe. Plenty of cold water is essential; an extra amount is needed in summer on account of the activity of the sweat eland Plenty of sleep or, at least, plenty of rest in bed, even if it is too hot to sleep, will aid in keeping one strong and well during the heated period. As long as you drink freely of wa ter, keep the head and neck well pro tected, wear clothing suitably light and loose, the sun seldom has any in jurious effect on healthy individuals who are temperate in their food and drink. JAM AND JELLY MAKING MADE EASY AND SURE RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT. In memory of Brother Oscar 0. Ed wards who died June 23, 1926. Again that unwelcome yet relentless visitor, death, hat entered the portals of our lodge room and summoned a brother to the home beynod.

The reason for the old-fashioned method of "boiling fruit down" was that no fruit contains enough jelly ing substance to jellify all of its juice. Therefore a large amount of juice had to be boiled away. But now with Certo (the jellying substance of fruit refined and bot tled) you can use any fruit you like even one which has never jelled before boil it only one or two min utes, and get a perfect tender "set." This short boil with Certo saves all of your fruit and juice ita fresh flavor its bright color its bulk. You get half again more jam or jelly. It takes less time to make it and it tastes better, looks better and cannot fail to jell. A recipe book comes with each bottle of Certo. Your grocer car ries Certo, or you can send 10c (for postage) and get a trial half-size bottle which will make from 6 to 10 glasses of jam or jelly, depend ing upon the recipe used.
