THE DAVENPORT NEW ERA
What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH.
Few pe iple realize to whnt extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of
serious illness, makes a chemical analy-
sis of the patient's urine, lie knows that
unless th<' kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta-
tistics, Uright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
jear, in the State of New York alone.
Therefore, it is particularly necessary to
pay more attention to the health of these
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success ns a kidney remedy
is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real-
ized, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Root at once from any phar-
macy. It is sold by every druggist in
bottles of two sizes—50c and fl.OU. ^
However, if you wish first to test this
eat preparation send ten cents to Dr.
ilmer A Co., Hinghamton, N. Y., for a
ample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

If you want knowledge you must
toll for It, if pleasure you must toll
for it. Toll Is law. Pleasure comes
through toll, not by self-indulgence
and Indolence. When one gets to love
work his life Is a happy one.—Ruskin.

New Shoes Protect Linemen.
A number of linemen liuve lost their
lives because the shoes they wore were
not properly protected from transmit-
ting electric current. A special line-
man's shoe has been patented recent-
ly which will completely overcome this
risk. Its sole Is composed of two sep-
arate layers of rubber which lessen the
possibility of blowholes through which
current enough to produce shock might
be carried. Tests prove that this new
shoe will prevent the passage of a cur-
rent of at least thirty thousand volts
without In nny way affecting the wear-
er.

WILD FRUITS.
Most of us for plain everyday use
prefer the plain nnd common foods
well prepared rath-
er than explore In-
to the uncertain
and unknown, yet
an occasional unex-
pected dish is usu-
ally welcome.
There are so
many berries nnd
small fruits that
might be put up for winter use that
nre never thought of. One frugal wom-
an nfter putting up all the blueberries
she felt tliut she could afford, washed
and dried a bushel. These when soak-
ed In water and sweetened make most
delicious pies and sauce and have kept
perfectly four years or as long as they
are not used. It Is necessary to care-
fully dry them and put them Into pa-
per sacks or bags that are dust and
Insect proof.
Wild grapes are the greatest of
roadside prizes and many are the ways
they may be preserved for the winter
table.
For green grape jam, pick the grapes
Just before they begin to turn. Halve
nnd seed them If you want a delicious
conserve and mix equal parts of sugar
when cooking. A few pint jars of
these will so delight your friends that
you will forget the labor of preparing
them. For Jelly, wait until they are
beginning to turn, then you will hnve
n most beautiful color. If too ripe
the jelly is not nearly ns good In color
and may lack the pectin found in the
greener grapes.
Spiced grapes make another way of
varying this delicious fruit; use this
when you nre serving venison, and be
thankful for such favors.
When everything else has been done
with grapes that you can think of, put
up a few bushels In the form of grape
Juice. No more delicious drink can be
offered the parched nnd tired traveler
than a glass of grape juice with tin-
kling Ice.
The elderberry Is another fruit that
need not be overlooked. Make a pie
and add a bit of vinegar or a few green
grapes to the pie to give it zest and
you will surely muke another very
soon.

SOUR CREAM FOR COOKING.
Most of us hnve too little cream to
every worry over using sour cream,
for It usunlly does not
last long enough to be-
come sour. On the farm,
however, there Is often
small amounts left In
the cans after being
brought from the cream-
ery and this. If saved,
amounts to quite an Item
In the food line. Very
delicious Ice cream nioy
be made from sour
rrenm as well as from sour milk and
fruit juices. Of course, by using
sour fruit Juices the ucldlty of the
cream Is not noticed.
Salad Dressing.—Mix a cupful of
sour cream, a half cupful of vlnegnr
nnd water, two tablespoonfuls of
sugar, a tnblespoonful of niustnrd, a
tenspoonful of salt, paprika to taste, u
half tenspoonful of clnnnmon, a tablo-
spoonful of flour, nnd a tnblespoouful
of butter with the yolks of four eggs.
Cook all together, then add the butter
and cream. If the cream Is whipped
nnd folded In when the dressing Is
cold It will be much lighter and dell-
rnte.
Johnny Cake.—Take n tablespoon-
ful of butter, two tablespoonfuls of
sugnr, a half teuspoonful of salt, one
egg, 0 cupful of sour cream, a cup-
ful of comment, a cupful of tlour, and
a tenspoonful of soda; mix us usual
nnd bake In a hot oven.
Sour Cream Cookies.—Add two cup-
fuls of sugar to half a cupful of
softened butter, two eggs beaten, and
a cupful anil u half of sour cream, 11
teeapoonful and a half of soda, and
a tenspoonful of grated orange peel
or lemon. Flour to roll soft. If the
flour Is added and kept on Ice for a
while It will roll with much less flour
nnd the cookies will be more tender.
Steamed Brown 8read.—Take a cup-
ful of white flour, a cupful of sour
uillk, a cupful of sour cream, a half
cupful of molasses, one nnd a fourth
teaspoonfuls of soda and a half a
teaspoonful of salt; mix nnd steam
three hours. Itnlslns may be added If
liked, and a few nuts nre an Improve-
ment.
OVER THE KITCHEN TABLE.
A bright progressive woman the oth-
er day put into words something that
has bothered many
n housewife in this
nge of "up to the
minute recipes."
She was speaking
of the great value
obtained from the
articles written for
the housewife but
concluded by say-
ing "they either come so early In the
season that we cut them out nnd lose
them, or they nre published after such
foods nre out of season." Bight here
It Is well to plan a system of caring for
such recipes, l'ut them carefully In-
dexed where you may lay your hand
upon them in the moment of need.
Most of our publications these days
make it Important that all recipes
should be published nt 11 time when
they can be used at once.
Some women do their work three
times, In anticipation, in realization,
and In retrospection. It Is wise to
plan work well, but after It Is done let
It be done and Improve on the next
piece of work if possible. Men as
a rule are not nervous and unstrung;
more women than men break down
with nerves. One reason is that a
woman's work has more of small de-
tails, she Is often called on In emer-
gencies, and her work Is "powerful
constant."
I wonder how many people realize
that It Is the work they don't do that
wears on the nerves. One may by con-
stant application train the mind to let
go when It Is time to rest, not turn
tilings over all night with tired un-
strung mind and body, making a new
day a torture.
It takes much more ability to Inspire
nnd get work out of others than to
be a great worker oneself. The first
Is n commander, the other, one in the
ranks. Cultivate the ability of getting
work out of others, especially the
young people. They need the train-
ing nnd you need the help. Young
children will work happily with com-
pany, but cannot be expected at first
to take tasks alone and enjoy dcing
them.
If the onion bed needs weeding or
the cellar or wood shed needs atten-
tion, get all hands together and make
quick work of It, for many hands do
make light work.
EMERGENCY ROLL.
Delicious little rolls are these and
may be served as such or In various
forms as bread sticks
to serve with soup or
salad, or take the place
of cake, and which are
easily made, as they are
leavened with baking
powder, so may be pre-
pared in a hurry. Sift
four cupfuls of pastry
flour and measure four
cupfuls. If bread flour Is
used subtract two ta-
blespooufuls from each cup, or, better,
take but three and a half cupfuls of
bread tlour. The pastry flour makes
a more delicate product and Is a little
more expensive flour. Add two tea-
spoonfuls of salt, one tnblespoonful of
sugar and four teaspoonfuls of baking
powder. Sift all together. Cut into
this four tablespoonfuls of cold hard
butter, using two case knives, one In
each hand; then moisten with one and
a third cupfuls of milk. Tills amount
may vary a little, as flour varies In
moisture. Lard and water may be
substituted for the butter and milk,
but nt a sacrifice of delicacy.
Cinnamon Rolls.—Itoll out a por-
tion of this dough until a half-Inch
thick, then brush with melted butter,
sprinkle with cinnamon nnd sugar
mixed, or nutmeg and sugar, using
brown sugar for a change In flavor;
roll up nml cut In slices two-thirds of
an Inch in thickness. I'lace the rolls
on a grensed pan, leaving ns much
space between them ns their own
diameter, ns they Swell In nil direc-
tions. Bake In n hot oven.
For maple rolls prepare (hem In the
same way, substituting maple sugar for
the white or brown. Honey and
lemon peeling grated Is another flavor
well liked.
Most delicious pin wheels are made
by using various kinds of fruit and
spices, mixed nnd sprinkled over the
buttered roll. Dntes, figs, raisins nnd
nuts singly or In comblnntlon with
spice, orange peel, lemon peel, citron,
cherries nnil nny kind of preserved
fruit niny be used to vnry this little
cake. Hake as above.
