GETS MAIL WITH PULLEY.
Farmer Didn't Want to Walk to lh*
Road to Gat It Thar*.
WhilesvUle, Mo.—To C. R. Thompson,
• farmer living northeast of here. Is
given the credit of paginating the lat
est method of having his mall brought
directly to his door.
Some time ugo Thompson' decided
that It was a waste of time and shot'
leather to make the daily trip to his
mall box down by the road, anil he Bet
bis miml and hand to work on a device
which would make said trip unneces
sary.
He succeeded, and now by means of
a set of wires and a pulley the trick is
accomplished.
After the mall man's visit Thompson
has only to step to his door and draw
In his mail, box and all.
The box Is sent back to Its post by
the roadside in the same manner.
Others In the community are so pleas
ed with Thompson's device that they
are going to follow his example, and it
will doubtless not be long until "golur;
after the mall," eveu so far ns the
gate, will be a thiug of the past with
the progressive farmers of uorthwest

How to Care For Your Pet Furs
and Woolens. /
MOTH BALLS TO THE FORE,1
Although We Can't See Our WhiU
Winged Enemies Flying About, Their
Larvae May Even Now Be Boring
Into Our Ermine Stoles and Sables.
Now Is the tltne to lay away all
woolens, furs and similar articles
which must be stored during the sum
mer.
The time when the n oth does most
damage is not when we see him flying
around. The mischief has been doue
by the biting of the little larva or
worm from which he came.
The first tiling to do in laying clothes
away is to see that they are perfectly
clean. Everything woolen, like bath
robes, blankets anj underwear, should
be brushed with a whisk broom, if it
cannot be washed first, and exposed to
tho sun and air.
If tbe garment cannot be washed in
water and we do not care to send It to
the cleaner it should never be laid
away dirty with spots of grease and
food, because these arc Just the things
that will attract the uioth worm first
The little spot on the lapel of the
overcoat, the slight dirt on the shield
of a child's flannel suit, these are the
places that Mr. Moth Worm goes for
first. Materials which arc not thor
oughly washable in water should be
given a bath In gasoline and thorough
ly aired.
Dresses trimmed with fur should
never be laid away with the fur on
them, but have the fur ripped off, clean
ed in gasoline, brushed and plsiced in
separate packages. In fact, all fur
must be thoroughly (-leaned, brushed
and aired before beius laid away.
Moth balls and camphor paper have
been used for a long time and are still
used, but we have modifications of
these now in the tar paper bag and
camphor bag, which are more efficient
In many ways.
These bags come In various sizes,
some very small for children's coats
and sweaters, others half length and
others even full length for evening
dresses or for overcoats.
Another cheap way of putting
clothes away is to put them Into the
paper boxes, such as come with under
wear and other articles and seal the
covers firmly with strips of gum paper.
There are many other articles which
we perhai»s cannot lay away, such as
tufted furniture, cushions, etc. The
best plan Is to spray them with gaso
line or benzine, using a small atomizer
or hand spray, or they can be very
carefully sponged with a diluted solu
tion of corrosive sublimate in alcohol
made just strong enough to leave a
white stain.
Light, air. low temperature and fre
quent ins[>ection are the things neces
sary for perfect storage.

Fish Bisque.
A fish bisque is made from one cup
ful of cold flsh minced very fine, one
cupful of hot milk and a cupful of
:;ny white stock. The carcass of a

excellent stock for this purpose. The

"Ain't I Worth MoreThan Taxes?"
By George McGinnis
The spectacular progress of the
temperance movement in. its world
wide sweep is truly marvelous.
Never 'u the history of the world
has the cause been making such
gigantic: strides. The liquor traffic
aas been weighed lu che balance
uid found wanting. _
The :um devil >s leaving the
world -o fast you can scarcely see
him for the dust. Russia's mil
lions are ou the anti-vodka wagon.
German's soldiers are denied beer.
France has put absinthe under the
oau. The King of England has
climbed the water wagon, and said
to his subjects, "Follow tne."
War has vitalized tho growing op
position to "rum in Europe and the
cry of efficiency in the busi
titss world in America ha® concen
trated the opposition to the liquor
traffic in our own land. Banks
are rolasing to buy whiskey paper
and brewery and distillery; stocks
are going begging on the market.
'flip wets have sent out an, S. O.
S. (iuds or Suicide) call to
Uncle Sam saying, "You'll commit
financial suicide if you lose tlie
rum revenue." Uncle pays no
heed to this call of distresB for he
knows its a "selfisihj holler for
themselves." Uncle is getting on
fine without saloons la the duy
sections. Illinois has aver 800
prosperous cities without saloon li
cense money ajid they are having an
era of prosperity such as they-have
never known before. Uncle is he
giinjing to believe with Gladstone
that "a sober nation can find rev
enue to sustain the government."
Saloons have been weighed in the
balances of the moral, social, scien
tific and business world and found
wanting.

"Which way will you vote, dad

lad, as he climbed upon his fath

"Wet, 'of course," replied the
man.
"But why, daddy":' questioned
•he I>ov.
"Because the saloons help pay
my taxes," replied tha father.
The child sat in deep thought for
a. while and. then, looking his father
lu the eyes, said: "Daddy, ain't X
worth more to you than yourtax
03? IF YOU VOTE WET, MAYBE
I'LL L"E A DRUNKARD SOME
DAY."
"If you vote 'wet' "—the words
echoed and re-echted through the
father's mind all night long, and
the next, day- ho went to the polls
and voted DRY, saying to those who
expressed surprise at his sudden
change of attitude, "THAT BOY

An Interesting In

Mr. Marks Tejlls His Experience
The following brief account of an
interview with a grateful man over
three years ago, and its sequel, will
be read with keen interest by every
citizen.
P \\r.. Marks, 1709 Parks St.,
Vancouver, Wash., says: "I was
so lame that I couldn't stoop, and
I had an extremely tender spot
over my left kidney. The kidney
secretions were irregular in pas
sage and discolored. I had to get
up often at night, especially dur
ing the fall and damp weather.
Doan's Kidney Pills cured the at
tack.'*
USES DOAN' S OCCASIONALLY

LATER, Mr. Marks said: "I still
have great confidence in Doan's
Kidney Pills. By using them once
in a while, I keep free from kid

Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
