Telephone 15 Quite a Number of our Customers Have Asked us How it Happenedthat we were Selling our Windows and Doors so Cheap. You know we meet anybody’s prices on Windows and Doors. Now here is the story. Some three years ago our General Manager Mr. Moore took a business and pleasure trip to the Pacific coast, and while he was there he made a contract with one of the largest Sash and Door Houses in the west to manufacture our windows and doors. This factory is located in the heart of the western white pine forests. They manufacture the Doors and Windows right on the ground where the timber grows. They saw their own timber into Lumber most suited for this work. They select the’ best part of the tree for this purpose. They are equipped with the latest modern ‘machinery, they employ the most skilled mechanics, they are proud of their finished products, they have a reputation to maintain. Now here is where we save our customers money. We have these Doors and Windows shipped to our big warehouse at Nevada, Mo., in car loads. By so doing they are not subject to the rough handling of freight men. Second, by shipping in car loads we save an enormous amount of freight. Fourth, by buying from a-factory that manufactures their finished products right where the timber grows, we save the enor- mous amount of freight and extra expense of handling that the average mill house is compelled to pay. For they most all ship the lumber from some sawmill to their factory and’then ship it to the consumer. When these Windows and Doors arrive at our Warehouse We do not allow a Window or Door to go out After the Windows and Doors arrive We have just received our share from the last car at our Butler Yard. When you are in the market for Windows and Doors come to our yard.

We have a divided Democrat party | here in Texas, the Pro-Democrat and 'the. Anti-Democrat. Kind readers, while I am no politician, Iam a voter jand this division ought not to be in the Democrat party. The question is asked, ‘‘who put it there?’’ Did not the religious guides of every denom- ination stump this state and _prohibi- tion went skyward, but took the back seat at our primary again. Accord- ing to history man can not: prohibit ‘anything. Why not Uncle Sam stop the making of strong drink? He can not get a hold of the moonshiners. We read of Paul and Silas being cast in prison and a guard placed over them, and their feet bound. At mid- night the walls of the prison shook. Why did not the guard prohibit this trouble—a good reason. When Christ said to his disciples “‘go preach the gospel to all nations,’’ nothing was said about anti-prohibition or prohibi- tion. But they cry today from the | stump, “Save our boys, the girls can go, but oh, God save our boys.” T. J. SHOBE. House for Rent. .8 room house, modern, furnished, for rent. Across from high school. DR. E. G. ZEY, 41-tf Butler, Mo. WILSON STANDS ON HIS RECORD Josephus Daniels of Demo- cratic National Committee Wants Voters to Make an Investigation. WILL WIN LEGION OF FRIENDS Slander is Not to Play a Part In Democratic Campaign, Declares Publicity Chairman. New York, Aug. 8.—-Josephus Dan- fels, chairman of the publicity com- mittee of the Democratic national committee, said today: “Eight years ago during the presi- dential campaign of 1904 I came to New York and, being a member of the Democratic national committee, I dropped in at the headquarters of the committee. I found the literary bu- reau of the committee very actively engaged in perusing the volumes of Theodore Roosevelt. When I saw on every desk ‘The Winning of the West,’ ‘The Life of Thomas H, Ben- ton’ and a half dozen others of the works of the then Republic:in nominee for president, I wondered whether or not I had gotten into the right place. “I was immediately set aright, how- ever, when I was informed that the literary young men were engaged in culling from those books some of the many denunciations and bitter criti- cisms and attacks made by Theodore Roosevelt upon public men and meas- ures, and his aspersions upon great representative bodies of our people, such as workingmen and farmers. “I found them preparing to send forth broadcast all over the land suth excerpts from the writings of Theo- dore Roosevelt as: “Cowboys are much better fellows and pleasanter companions than small farmers or agricultural laborers; nor are the mechanics and workmen of a great city to be mentioned in the same breath.’ “‘Mr, Bryan and his adherents have appealed to the basest set in the land —the farmers.’ “They (workingmen who object to government by injunction) are not in sympathy with men of good minds and sound civic morality.’ “They quoted from what he said about the Quakerm that those who would not fight were traitors to their country, “They said that when the farmers and workmen and the Quakers came to know what Theodore Roosevelt had written about them they would rise up with wrath and indignation and bury Theocore Roosevelt beneath an avalanche of votes. They said that Roosevelt would not answer that ex- posure of his views, and, of course, he never did. I agreed with them that it was the proper thing to do to her- ald these utterances through the coun- try. “As to whether or not that sort of campaigning had any:.effect, the re- sult of the campaign eight years ago speaks for itself. “The Republican party is attempting to do today the same sort of thing that the Democrats tried in 1908. The Democrats out-Rodenberged Mr, Ro- denberg. They were eight years ahead of him in this sort of thing. It didn’t work with us then and it will not work with them now. Stands on Record. “The attempt to attack Gov. Wilson because of certain statements which he made in writing history and in commenting upon events of history as they appeared to him as historian, will fail signally. As one great metro- jolitan newspaper pointed out, Mr. Rodenberg and his kind are simply ‘Blowing against the wind.’ Governor Wilson is running for president on his record as a public man, and with that record the public is fairly well conversant, and it will continue to learn more as the campaign pro- gresses. “He ig running for president on his record as governor of New Jersey, what he said and did in that capacity, rather than what he wrote as a histor- fan, chronicling events and comment- ing upon them as they appeared to an impartial observer whose duty it is to write of things as they are rather than as they should be or as he would have them. “Our Republican brethren are en- titled to all the thunder they can make out of Governor Wilson’s writ- ings. I hope they will read them carefully and thoroughly. They will be able to gain a great deal of valua- ble information and when the context is read along with the excespts which have been taken from his works for the purpose of placing him in a false light, I have no fear as to the results. All that is needed is a thorough un- derstanding. “Ingersoll sought to disprove Bible truths and to assail Holy Writ by the same methods which the Republicans are seeking to assail Gov. Wilson.” OCOOOOOOOCOGCOOOOOOCOOOOCOO: SENATOR GORE OF OKLA.

White Puffs—Beat a pint of rich milk and the whites of four eggs un- til very light, and add, slowly, beating all the while, a cupful of finely-sifted flour and a scant cupful of pulverized sugar, with the grated yellow peel of | half a lemon. Bake in buttered tins in a very hot oven, turn out, sift powdered sugar over them, and serve , hot with lemon sauce. Sultana Salad—Wash and core sev- eral tart, juicy apples and slice in rings just before the salad is wanted. Dip the slices in lemon juice to pre- vent discoloring and arrange two slices in each salad plate. Have ready some broken walnut meats and seed- ed raisins which have been marinated in French dressing, fill the centers of the rings with the sweets and serve at once. Drying Plums—Split ripe plums before they get ripe and mushy, re- move the pits and lay the plums on plates or sieves to dry, setting in the sunshine if possible, but if not, in a: warm oven. If in the sunshine, take in at night before the dew begins to fall, and do not put them out again until the sun can shine on them; turn the pieces that may be dried evenly; | pack them in jars when dry, or in paper bags hung in airy places. Where berries and fruits have to be bought, there is little economy in making fruit juices and beverages, but if one can stand the expense, a great deal better article can be had if care is taken in the making. Where fruits are to be had for the gathering, these should be put up, by all means. Quince Honey—This recipe. has been given several times, but is called for again. Three pints of boiling water, six pounds of granulated sug- ar, a piece of alum about the size of a soup bean, which should be pulver- ized; boil twenty minutes; grate five quinces and two nice, sour apples, | put into the syrup and boil twenty minutes. Then strain into a’ jar. This should make about a gallon of honey. Making Fruit Syrups For peach syrup, either the store extract may be used, or a small quan- tity may be prepared at hume by cracking the pits, pounding the ker- nels and putting them in an ounce of | ‘known to science. fine alcohol; care must be taken not to use too many kernels, as the kernels are full of prussic acid, which is a deadly poison—one of the deadliest A dozen kernels to the ounce of alcohol is enough, and it should stand for about a week. For peach syrup, to each quart of peach juice made by peeling, pitting and mashing the fruit (which must be set aside about thirty-six hours and then pressed), allow one gallon of the plain syrup and half an ounce of peach extract. The extract should be added when the syrup is made, cold and ready for bottling. In preparing fruit syrups, first boil the sugar and water in usual propor- tions, to a certain point, where a drop taken between the thumb and finger will snap when pulled apart; to try ‘this, dip the finger into ice water, take a drop of syrup from the edge of the kettle; when the syrup is ready, the frut juices may be added, and only a few minutes more boiling will be necessary. The flavoring should be added when the syrup is cold. The syrup is made by using two pounds of sugar to three cupfuls of water. One quart of fruit will gen- erally yield one pint of juice. Only the perfect, ripe fruits should be used, as imperfect, wilted, unripe or rotting fruit will be worse than a waste of everything. Only the best spirits, or alcohol should be used, if any; but excellent fruit syrups can be made by eliminating all liquors. High Prices Cause Suicide.
