True Stories of Successful Women By Edith Moriarty
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am fifteen years old and have one brother who is working and one younger brother who to in school. My mamma is dead and papa wants me to keep on with school until I graduate. So we all help out with the housework, but it is not a bit like it used to be. We do not have it nearly so nice in our house as my friends have and I never like to invite them over. It was always neat when mamma was here, but now papa and my brothers do things any old way and I have to let them and not fuss because I can't io everything alone. My older brother has just been scolding me terribly and says I don't deserve such a good father. He called me a 6nob and says I ought to quit the girls I go with. I wonder what I shall do, but first I will have to tell you. Papa can't wear good clothes when he works and he looks awful. One day he met me with some of my friends and called out to me, for he is full of fun. He looked so awful I was ashamed and when the girls asked me who that freshie was I said, "Someone I know well," and started about something else. I was not pleasant to him and I think it hurt him, but he never said a word about It. A while afterward when I was with Household Hints ECONOMY DISHES Cream Noodles In place of meat dish. Mix two eggs and a pinch of salt with enough flour to make stiff dough. Roll and cut fine strips about two inches in length. Drop In kettle of boiling salted water. Boil till done, strain through colander. Put about three tablespoons of butter or fat in skillet, add one cup bread broken in small pieces and brown. Add one-half cup thick sweet cream, add noodles and fry about three minutes. Pepper slightly and serve. This is an appetizing dish and is good for a change. It is an excellent meat substitute. Baked Apple Dumplings Materials: Take two cups of flour, two teaspoons baking powder, one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon butter, one tablespoon lard, seven-eighths cup of sweet milk, ono teaspoon cinnamon, two tablespoons brown sugar, four large tart apples chopped. ' Sift the flour, baking powder and
Best Sweet Peppers for Canning Are Pimentoes; U. S. Department of Agriculture Gives Instruction
Roasting the peppers; placing filled jars In container to process.
The best sweet peppers for canning are the Spanish variety known as pimentos. The fruit of these peppers has a very thick flesh and tough skin and is comparatively smooth and free from ridges. Bell peppers are not a suitable variety to can. Only ripe, sound peppers free from bruises should be used. Can the whole peppers. The small or broken ones may be cut into strips and canned or used in relishes, sauces and soup mixtures. Remove the seeds with a slender paring knife by cuting around the stem and taking out the inside partitions. To peel, roast the peppers in a hot oven from 6 to 10 minutes or until the skin blisters and cracks. Do not allow them to scorch. Remove skin with a sharp paring knife, flatten the peppers and pack in layers in a jar which has been boiled 15 minutes. No County Folks Lose Grouch, Gain Tan, in Vacations at Northern Fishing Holes With a coat of tan, and a better disposition, court attaches are returning from their summer vacations this Week and are getting down to the daily grind again. Gus Hafner, deputy county clerk, returned Monday from a two week's stay at a northern Indiana lake. Deputy Sheriff Carl Wadman is again at work, after an outing in the wilds near Centerville, where he hunted the elusive squirrel and dodged the pestiferous chigger. "Ate all the time," was the answer Wadman gave when asked how he Fpent his vacation, "and those squirrels certainly tasted good." John Holaday is still drowning worms at his favorite "fishin' " hole, although an estry on the court docket shows that he was due to return last Monday. Officials of the court house are wondering just what has happened to him. Holaday promised that he would not return until he was able to bring back a good mess of fish, and it is believed that this promise might be the cause of his extended stay. Boston, lnd.

the same girls he was coming up the street, but before he got up to us he turned and crossed over and I know he did it on purpose. He is good as he can be, but he looks a fright except on Sundays. I felt so badly I told my brother and he just scolded me terribly. I don't want to be a snob, but all the girls I go with have prettier homes and clothes and their people dress better, too. Please tell me what I should do. MAIDIE. Your letter is very pathetic. It is easy for me to see the great soul your father has, and also that he has neglected to teach you true values in life. Do you think less of Jesus because he wore poor clothing? TUe quality of his soul makes you admire him the more for his simplicity. Be proud of your father and tell your friends how splendid he is. Explain that in spite of his hard work he tries to be both father and mother to you. If your friends are anything but snobs they will regard him with the respect you hold for him and will love him in spite of his shabby workday clothes. Your present attitude is entirely wrong. If your friends amounted to anything they would like you less because of it. When a girl is ashamed of her own father it shows that she is a snob and lacks heart and soul.
By Mrs. Morton salt, and work these with the butter and lard, then make a dough, using the milk. Place on your molding board. Roll out into one sheet onehalf inch' think. Brush with a little melted butter, 6prlnkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon. Then cover with the chopped apples. Roll up as you would a jelly roll and cut into twelve equal slices. Place the slices on end in buttered pan. Pour over them the sauce and bake in a brisk oven for twenty-five minutes. Following is the Dumpling Sauce: One cup of brown sugar, one cup hot water, one tablespoon of butter, one tablespoon flour, one-half teaspoon salt, one-half lemon, sliced. Mix the sugar, flour, salt, add the butter, sliced lemon and hot water. Stir until well mixed. Cook three minutes. Always use brown sugar for apple pie, dumplings or tarts, as the flavorwill be better. water or seasoning is used in the canning. The processing in the jar brings out a thick liquor which almost covers them. Put in place the rubber and top which have been boiled. If a screp-top cover is used, screw half way on; if a glass top with wire bails, put top bail : in position and leave the lower clamp j unfastened. Place jars on the false I bottom in a water-bath canner. If the rover of the vessel in which the nrrv cessing is done is not tight, water suf-! ficient to cover the jars should be put i in. uoii pint jars ior minuies, mj vert to test for leaks and, when cool, store in a cool, dark, dry place. When a steam-pressure canner is used, process pints 10 minutes under an eight-pound steam pressure. United States Department of Agriculture. Beard.

FOOD SALE POSTAGE LOWER; QUOTA YET IS BARELY TOUGHED
A new change in the postage for mail orders in connection with the sale of surplus army foodstuffs has ben made by the postofflce department, it was announced by Postmaster C. B. Beck, Wednesday, morning. All postage will correspond with the rates in zones one and two, which is five cents for the first pound and one cent for each additional pound. Hereafter persons ordering food through the postofflce department should figure their postage accordingly. The extra amount of postage paid by persons who have already purchased will be refunded, added Beck. Three times as many orders were received Tuesday as Monday, with peas and corn still the largest commodity being purchased. Sales in Richmond are bigger in proportion than the ones in the state capitol, Indianapolis, said Beck. The sale will, in all probability, be continued until all the foodstuffs are consumed, which will be .according to the prsent rate of purchases, a month. Sales to Continue Richmond purchasers who are under the Impression that the sale will end Wednesday, and consequently are not buying 6hould mail or give their orders to carriers, or bring them direct to the postofflce, with the new postage Drices. It will not end until Rich mond's quota is exhausted. Persons who have been overcharged on the postage due to the late arrival of the orders changing the rate, should not worry about receiving the surcharge, for, as soon as the postal authorities get the situation cleared up, they will sent checks to all purchasers for the amount due them. It will relieve the officials greatly if the people adhere strictly to this order, and help to keep down the congested conditions at the postofflce. Brownsville, lnd.

Modern Genius Triumphs
- By Luke Woodard. Man belts the mighty earth with nerves, His hands have spun from melted ors The chained lightning meekly serves As tongue and pen, and time and space Are made as nought, and from their thrones, Monarchs may speak, as face to face. To princes in remotest zones: And what the Czar of Russia said At evening is next morning read In Congress and in parliament. To Prince of Wales and President. How changed! For once, to take our mall The stage and slow pack horse were used. And we relied on wind and sail To bring us all our foreign news. We have no better voice or ear Than had our grandsires, yet while they Could not be heard a league, we hear One's voice a thousand miles away. In days gone by our loved ones tongue Was stilled by death, 'twas heard no more, But now like to a harp re-strung. We hear their -voice, the songs they sung. As we were wont in days of yore. The Duke of Argyll, though a sage, Surpassing most men of his age. Does in his book declare That man with wisdom most profound. And skill, the means has never found. To navigate the air. But now we have the aeroplane. Whose speed exceeds the fastest . train; And flies across the seas With men on board! Well, who can say We may not in a coming day. See stranger things than these. If one who has prophetic powers Had told those worthy sires of ours. That their own sons would see What we have seen, they would have said, "Why, man, you've surely lost your head. Such things can never be." ANNOUNCEMENT I have gone back in the Building and Contracting business. See me at once. O. A. KEPLINGER 1218 N.
