The “do your shopping early” slogan is still applicable and the sooner you get the shopping done the better it will be done, for the later buyers always get the pick-overs.

DANGER IN DELAY.

Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous for Rensselaer People to Neglect. The great danger of kidney troubles is that they so often get a firm hold before the sufferer recognizes them. Health will he gradually undermined. Backachq, headache, nervousness, lameness, soreness, lumbago, urinary troubles, dropsy, gravel and brights disease often follow in merciless succession. Don’t neglect your kidneys. Help the kidneys with Doan’s Kidney Pills, which are so strongly recommended right here in this locality. Mrs. Joseph Houk, S. Benton St., Goodland, Ind., says: “I can highly recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills for they were of greater benefit than any other medicine I ever used. For three years I was troubled with kidney complaint and at times my back ached severely. When I heard about Doan’s Kidney Pills I decided to give them a trial and got a box. They relieved the backache and improved my condition in every way.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedyget Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Houk had.

Showed Wifey How to Cook

“It’s'Junny I never can get a steak cooked at home the way it ought to be < cooked?’ grumbled the married man. v “How ought It to-be cooked?” asked his wife. “Perhaps if you would tell me I could see that you had it the way you wanted it” “Oh, no, you couldn’t” said the man. “Not on your life. In the first place, you wouldn’t get the steak. You let that butcher send you any old thing that he wants to and then charge you what be likes. A steak ought to be cooked so that a man can get his teeth into it, io begin with. The steaks I get you can’t get the knife through the gravy.” “I think you are exaggerating a little, my dear,” said the man’s wife. “I think we get pretty good steak — considering.” “Considering that it’s cut from between the horns,” said the married man. “1 suppose it is—considering that. I can tell you the way it shouldn’t be cooked, if you want to know. It shouldn’t be frietl until it’s as tough as leather and as dry as dog biscuit, and it shouldn’t be charred to a cindejr on the outside and have a violet streak running through the middle.” “No?” said his wife.

“No,” replied the man. “There’s no reason why it should be cut as thin as a sheet of wrapping paper, either. Have you told the man you’d like something eatable?” “No, and I haven’t flung it in his face, either,” said the man’s wife. “It’s as good steak as any one could expect for money. If I remember, it was you who objected to paying more than thirty cents for a steak enough for four persons, and I’ve been trying to please you by keeping it down to that. Just look over the bills?’ ‘h don’t think I ever made any complaint of the price.”/ ' ‘ “But you wouldn’t be sure, would you? I don’t think —I know.” “Weren’t you going to call up the butcher yourself and tell him that he needn’t expect any more orders after such robbery, and didn’t I talk and talk to you before I could make you understand that I was attending to that department?” “I’ve no doubt you talked,” said the married man. “Any way, it isn’t so much the meat as it is the way it’s cooked. “That’s what I was talking about, if you will exercise that phenomenal memory of yours. You can buy the best meat in the world —or any other food —and pay the best prices, and then spoil it by not cooking it properly. You know that just as well as I do.

“A' steak ought to be about an inch and a quarter thick and then it ought to be broiled. You spoil a steak when you fry it, to begin with.” “I don’t,” said the lady. “I Always have your steak broiled. We never fry it” . “I thought you wanted me to tell yoy how I liked my steak done. If you don’t, of course, I’m wasting time trying to tell you. You want to broil it until it is just cooked through and a nice, rich brown on top. Then you can put a lump of butter on it and season it and” — “Who was it complained of the amount of butter we used?” “I suppose I did. I suppose I grudged the pepper and salt, too. I raised cain about the mustard, didn’t I? I’ll take you to a restaurant where they can cook a steak, where it will be brought on juicy and tender with the flavor in it. It will be an object lesson for you.” X “Will it cost 30 cents?” asked\he man’s wife.

The man looked at her in ‘disgust “Oh, you women are ldtical crea tures, aren’t you?” he sSWI. “Can't you keep it in your head for five min utes I was talking about the cooking?”

EARLIEST RAILWAY TICKETS.

Old System Was in Line With the General Service Then Existing. The earliest railway tickets differs, entirely from those now in use. T'nbooking clerk was furnished with. a volume, the pages of which were di vlded down the center by a perform ated line, the outside half of each page was again divided into slip.' about four inches long by an Inch and three-quarters in width, on each of which was printed the name of t b r issuing station; spaces were proviJ r’ in which the clerk had to write thdestination, passenger** name, d n of issue and the time the train wa due to start. One of these slips, dnh filled in, was detatched from the bo~ and handed over to each would-b passenger in exchange for his farThe traveler, having thus obtained h i ticket, was passed on to the guard c the train by which he desired to trav el. This pfflcial was provided witly kind of waybill, on which he enter particulars of all his passengers t mttch the same way that a parcel i served nowadays. Incidentally, th similarity of treatment did not alwav end there; the third-class passengnhad to travel in an open .carriage, f? quently nothing more than a good truck attached to a train which ca' ried both passengers and goods, mor or less indiscriminately. ’ j ■ Cypress water tanks have bee; known to defy decay for more than i quarter of a century.

Veal Loaf.

This is a savory dish at picnics and Simple country suppers. Mince three pounds of raw, lean veal and a quarter of a pound of the best fat pork. Sprinkle through the meat half an onion grated fine', half a teaspoonful of powdered thyme, a scant saltspoonful of powdered sweet marjoram, the same amount of summer savory, one tablespoonful of pepper. When the meat is minced and the seasoning added, mix in about two-thirds of a cup 6f cracker crumbs, half a cup of veal gravy, the yolk of an egg and the whites of two eggs well beaten together.

Itching Scalp.

The head should be carefully shampooed and then would be benefited by applying for two weeks a lotion made from three drams of glycerine and sous ounces of lime water. This is rubbed in with the finger tips, keeping It from the long hair. At the end weeks put half an ounce of tincture of cantharldes to the original amount of the lotion and apply this, at the end of the month increasing the tincture to one ounce to the first proportions of the lotion. The prudent young man who is looking for a wife «who will “wear well," takes note of the appearance of her mother. If she is neat and trim, and looks as if she had help with the work and kindly and loving , care, he may safely infer that her daughter will make a good wife.
