LET FORD OWNERS TELL YOU

1»‘. A. J. SIMPSON Office and Residence 9001 Broadway, Cleveland, O. Cleveland. 0., Dec. 22, 1913. Ford Motor Company, Cleveland, Ohio. Gentlemen:—l am writing this letter to tell you of my experieee with my Ford Model *T” runabout purchased from your Cleveland office Oct, 4th, 1912. My machine has been on the road every day since I have owned it with the exception of about four of the very coldest days of last winter and to date has traveled 5.900 miles carrying an average load of one, frequently two and sometimes three passengers, - With the exception of one 300mile tour all of my traveling has been short trips about the city and surrounding country roads and I average 21 miles j>er gallon of gasoline. I have spent $7.80 . for repairs, $4.60 of which was necessary on account of an accident, have bought three tires, one of the original ones still doing duty, have averaged 8,000 miles out of the three that have been replaced. Have been very much pleased with the treatment received from lour office force land shop employees and when in the market for another car shall buy a “Ford.” Am never too busy to stop and recommend its advantages to my friends, send any doubtful prospects to see me and use this letter in any way you like. I previously owned another make of car and after six months use it became such a nuisance and bill of expense that I was almost persuaded to not buy another car, but my model “T” has pleased me beyond my fondest expectations. Yours very truly, A. J. SIMPSON, M. D. A\. I. HOOVER, Local Agent.

'Ye noticed in one of our county papers that the physicians of Rensselaer have raised their practice rates; while the calamity howlers are telling of the reduction on farm products owing to taking off the tariff, the doctors propose to advance on their products instead of reducing, eh? Twelve and fifteen years ago when they had to go on horseback and in buggies out over the country to administer to the sick, and would take them a half day to make a trip, they would charge from $5 to $6 and seemed to make money at that: now they are prepared to make three trips and sometimes more in the same length of time and have to have from $8 to $lO per trip, and many of us if we haven’t got the price have got to do without service no matter how badly we need it. Unfortunately somehow fortune has not smiled upon some of us very favorably, and consequently we haven’t the cash on hand, and sickness and accidents don’t wait until our ship arrives.

Admires Pastor Russell’s Book.

Atlanta Constitution:—Bill Arp, the “Southern Philosopher," wrote the following review of “The Divine Plan of the Ages’’ some time before he died: “It is Impossible to read this book without loving the writer and ponder ing his - wonderful solution of the great mysteries that have troubled us all our lives. There is hardly a family to be found that has not lost some loved one who died outside the church—outeide the plan of salvation, and, if Cal vinism be true, outside of all hope and Inside of eternal torment and despair. We smother our feelings and turn away from the horrible picture. We dare not"deny the faith of our fathers, and yet can it be possible that the good mother and the. wandering child are forever separated?—forever and forever?

“I believe it is the rigidity of these teachings that makes atheists and infidels and skeptics—makes Christians unhappy and brings their gray hairs down in sorrow to the grave—a lost child, a lost soul! f* * * “This wonderful book makes no assertions that are Aot well susfalned by the Scriptures. It Is built up stone by Btone, and upon every stone is the text, and It becomes a pyramid of God’s love, and mercy, and wisdom. "There is nothing In the Bible that the author denies or doubts, but there are many texts that he throws a tloyd of, light upon that seems to remove from them the dark and gloomy'meaning. I see that editors of leading journals and many orthodox ministers of different denominations have endorsed It and hare confessed to this new and comforting light that has dawned upon the interpretation of God’s Book. Then let svery man read and ponder and take comfort, for we are all prisoners of hope. This is an age of advanced thought, and more thinking is done than ever before—men dare to think now. Light—more the watchword." 365 pages—cloth bound, 35 cents, postpaid. Bible and Tract Society, 17 Sicks Street, Brooklyn, N. Y.

HELPFUL HINTS FOR HOUSEWIVES

Spoon Holder Attachment For Cooking Pets.

One of the many minor inventions that are so useful in the kitchen Is the kettle spoon holder designed by a Massachusetts man and shown in the Illustration. It obviates the necessity of having a saucer, plate or cup standing near the cook to hold the stirring spoon when the latter is not in use. The holder is made of aluminium and consists of a saucer shaped piece with perforations and a hook by which it may be hung ov.er the edge of a kettle, the wide portion inside. Then as the spoon is taken from the food It can be laid on the holder, and the drippings drop through the perforations into the con tents of the kettle. Another advantage of the holder is the fact that the spoou Is always at hand when wanted.

Right *Way to Boil Ham. The discussion of, ways to Itoll ham mn y seem to soin eon ti rel ys u peril nous, yet have you never noticed that some hams retain that rich red color and perfect taste, while others have a brownish color and the meat comes apart? This difference lies in the man nor of boiling. V good ham put on In' cold water and cooked slowly, or allowed to stand for awhile without cooking will lose much of its nutrition. The proper way to cook a bam is to put it on hi water that Is already hot. just beginning to simmer. If it can he kept at this temperature, which Is a few degrees below the lioiling point, so much the better. At any rate, it should Hot boil vigorously. For every pound of ham let it boil a quarter of an hour. Thus a sixtiHUi iMiund bam would require four hours to ptvperly cook. When put In hot water the outer layers of meat are cooked at once, thus preventing the escape of juices which will take place in cold water

Cranberry Butter. Two quarts of cranberries washed and put on to cook With water enough to just co\er. When boiling hot put in oue teaspoonful of soda, stir nnd sktin; let cook until tender and the berries all mashed, then run through a wire flour seive or fine colander. At the same time have three quarts of apples cooking. When done run through colander, mix cranlsrrles and apples 1 with two quarts of sugar: put in a flat granite pan, pla'ce In the oven with a uioderat fire: let ebok two and one-half or three hours, according to the heat of the oven; stir every thirty minutes. Kentucky Corn Bread. To one Pintsifted white corn meal add one-half teaspoonful soda, one teaspoonful salt land if liked one or two tablespoon!ills sugar), one tablespoon fill lard, two beaten eggs and enough buttermilk to rnaki* a thin batter. Have a well greased pan heated on top of the stove. |mur tin* butter Into this and bake one-half hour in a quick oven. There must lie plenty of grease in tin* pan and it should lie hot enough so that the batter when if is poured In will crisp around the edges To Restore a Dying Plant. When a plant becomes poo dry it Is difficult to get the water to penetrate the dirt In the pot far enough to reach the roots, and you may pour water on all day and not revive your plant. IJut try placing the plant in a pan of water and let it absorb upward nil the water It needs. When it fias enough the water will bubble and your plant will he benntifut and alive again I '■ .. .• ■; \ Macaroni In Tomato Sauce. 801 l one cupful of macaroni until tender, then drain. Make the sauce,of one cupful of tomato, strained, one tablespoonful of flour and add butter and salt to taste. Alternate a layer of macaroni and sauce in a baking dish until filled.

Have ready three tahles'poon fills of butter very hot and brown the chicken all oyer quickly. Be careful not to burn it. Cover and place in the oven for one hour.
