Shiloh Baptist Church Trouble REV. THEODORE HAWKINS AND CHURCH DISAGREE Police Officers Guard Church Meeting—Pulpit Declared Vacant After 12th of the Month—Pastor's Alleged Opposition To Berean Association, One Of Reasons for Dissatisfaction Up to a few months ago the First Shiloh Baptist church, Harden street, had been going along the even tenor of its way and getting along nicely. Even in the loss last year of their beloved pastor, the Rev. B. Molette, the church clung together and last May called the Rev. Theodore Hawkins of Philadelphia. The new pastor took hold of the work with vim and enthusiasm and the church began to take on new life and it looked as if much success would attend his pastorate. Howeyer, after several months' work, dissatisfaction at the way things were being managed began to crop out by degrees and a climax in the situation was reached Tuesday night at the church meeting when the pulpit was declared vacant after the 12th of the month. Two police officers were stationed at the church, and this only served to tensify the feeling. Many of the members were indignant at this and did not fail to so express themselves. While the meeting was not a very stormy one, yet an overabundance of the spirit of brotherly love and christian fellowship cannot be said to have prevailed. One side of the trouble, as told by one of the leading members, is as follows: "Rev. Theodore Hawkins of Philadelphia, Pa., was called by the First Shiloh Baptist church during the month of last May to serve indefinitely as its pastor during the period of mourning for its deceased pastor, Rev. B. Molette, with the understanding that at the expiration of that time he should be called indefinitely, if satisfaction was given. "When Rev. Hawkins first took the church, the church took on new life and all of the officers and members did all they could to make his pastorate a success; but after a short time there became a gradual decrease in average attendance and collection. During the time the reverend has been in charge of the church about eight members have been added, but at the same time more than fifty per cent. of the original membership stopped attending church. "Rev. Hawkins' unpopularity among the members was brought about by himself from the fact, that he created much dissatisfaction among the members commencing first, when, he attempted, without any reason whatever, to persuade the church to leave the Berean Association and by criticising all the officers and everything connected with the Berean Association, an organization and people he knew less than two months. We will next say that the reverend was very productive in his mind in planning good things for the success of the church, but not one of them has been a success; don't know whether it was the members' fault or the reverend's, perhaps the reverend couldn't work his plans; there are some things though I know the reverend could work, that is dissention among his members by taking the smallest trifle and magnifying it by agitation into a mountain. Further, the reverend by contracting so many unnecessary debts for the church, and some other reasons which we won't mention here, have created distrust and caused great dissatisfaction with nearly the whole membership. The officers stood loyal until things got to the place that it became necessary for the perservation of themselves and the church to allow members to act. Hence, on the third of this month they met in regular conference and voted that on and after the twelfth of this month the pulpit shall be declared vacant, as that was the end of the race. VOLUME XXIX The A Word to Physicians The sixth annual meeting of the South Carolina Race Conference will be held in Columbia, February 18th to 20th. The opening session will be at Sidney Park C. M. E. church, Wednesday night, the 18th. People who attend are usually benefited by the instructions received and the information given. The last day of the Conference, Friday, will be given over to the physicians and dentists of the state from 2 p.m. to 10 p. They will hear and deliver addresses bearing directly on their workDr. LaBrince Ward will speak on the Hookworm disease. All physicians in this and the bordering states are invited to be here on the 20th to hear these addresses and take part in the discussion of the same. Let the physicians from Charlotte, Wilmington, Savannah, Augusta, come and haer these helpful addresses by experts- All physicians expecting to come write A. B. Johnson, M. D., 1109 Washington street or Richard Carroll, president. All dentists write Dr. H. H. Cooper 1109 Washington street. Any train reaching the city by 12 o'clock Friday, the 20th will be in time for this very important meeting. These lectures to physicians and dentist will be delivered at Benedict college. All other meetings at Sidney Park C. M. E. church. Rev. Richard Carroll, Pres. Dr.G. T. Dillard, Vice-pres. Rev. C. H. Rombert, Sec'y. of mourning. The conference was orderly, the only objection being the pastor wanted to do all of the talking and most of the presiding. "We regret very much that officers were asked to be around the church, as it was not necessary. We could not say positively, but we were led to believe that the pastor ordered them there. Perhaps he was afraid that something would happen after he said he prayed and God gave him the church and he was not going to let it get away." The Rev. Hawkins version of the trouble may be learned from the following: 2016 Harden Street, Feb. 3d. To the officers and members of the First Siloho Baptist church: Dear Brethren: For one month or more, the following notice has been read from your pulpit. "At its next regular business meeting February 3rd (Tuesday night) the church will call a pastor to take charge beginning February 12th, 1914. All members are requested to be present." At this meeting there were thirty members present and a vote of 14 to 16 that the pulpit be vacant after the 12th, carried. I have heard through one upon whose veracity I place the most implicit confidence, that a conspiracy to shoot me, if I was reelected, had been planned. The party who over-heard the plot, phoned for two city officers to appear and they came and guarded the church while it was in business session. This is so alarming to me until I feel it my duty to present you my resignation to take effect at once. Why such a conspiracy be, I cannot conceive the slightest idea. I remember about two months ago that Deacon Rainey told me of a dream he had similar to this plot, knowing as I do, that my conduct was of such that such a thing could not happen by a sane person. I did not take the dream sincere, but after passing through this odeal, I find he is a very good dreamer. The calling off the memorial services of your former pastor after I had arranged same and secured ministers to serve, who would help you to raise the balance due on the funeral, I feel to be not only an injustice to me, but an insult to those who promised to serve, and shows also the esteem you had for your late pastor. This closes our relationship as church and pastor, and whatever dealings hereafter we are to have must be through my attorney, whom you will no doubt hear from soon. Respectful y. Theodore Hawkins. New Physician in the City Dr. O. C. Clayborne of Fitzgerald, Ga., who arrived in the city last week, has opened an office at 257 Randolph street. Dr. Clayborne is a member of the 1908 graduating class of Meharry Medical College SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1914 A. M. E. Churchmen Met in Atlanta BISHOP H. M. TURNER PRESIDED Annual Conference Sermon Delivered by Bishop C. S. Smith—Many States Represented in Gathering Atlanta, Feb. 5.—Bishops and other general officers of the African Methodist Episcopal church met today in annual council. The meeting was presided over by H. M. Turner, senior bishop. Bishop C. S. Smith of Detroit delivered the annual conference sermon. In addition to high officials, many ministers of the church from more than a score of states were in attendance. Over Home News, Beaufort, SC Never in the history of Beaufort have the citizens manifested so much interest in as the bridge proposition which came up to be voted on Tuesday, February 3rd. Much talk of the new bridge from Beaufort to a point on Lady's Island has been made. On all sides you can hear simply, bridge, bridge. On the Beaufort side the vote is three to one for the bridge; on the St. Helena side the vote is about three to one against the bridge. A few reasons why St. Helena does not want the bridge were, because of increased taxes; because they do not want to sell lands; because they do not want undesirable citizens to locate among them; because Negro farmers ought not to depend upon the farms of strangers for work; because they will have little benefit and bear a heavy tax burden. Why Beaufort wants the bridge is: so as to open up and place 7000 people in touch with Beaufort; to get a part of the trade which now goes to some other point; to get new people among the Negro farmers so that they will cultivate more farm lands which will be a help to the whole country; because we want the bridge and we must have it. Mrs. Lottie Brown died at her home, corner West and Green streets, on the morning of Friday before last, after an illness of a very few days.

Howard University Issues Bulletin TELLS OF ADVANTAGES OF SCHOOL Growth of Shool Shown and Success Graduates Have Attained—Says Leader's Need Higher Education Dean Kelley Miller has just issued an interesting bulletin setting forth the workings of the College of Arts and Sciences of Howard University. This bulletin sets forth in clear, concise terms the educational facilities and advantages of a great institution of learning located at the National Capital. The college of Art and Sciences contains over three hundred students, with a faculty of 20 members. This is the largest group of colored youth to be found pursuing the higher academic education. The courses cover the usual grade of college subjects. Special emphasis is laid upon the departments of sciences, leading to the study of medicine, and other practical applications. Combination courses have been arranged whereby a student may gain one year between his college course and his course in law, medicine, or theology. This is in harmony with the practices of the leading institutions of the country. The bulletin states that the curriculum and facilities have been brought fully up to the demands of the modern college. Statistical tables show the remarkable growth of the college from the small beginnings in 1866 to the present number. This growth has been especially noticeable during the past six years. Among the graduates of the college of Arts and Sciences are found men of high standing in het professions of ministry, medicine, and law, and as educators, authors and public servants. Among the distinguished dead are listed the Rev. Wm. J. Simmons, D. D., author of "Men of Mark," and the chief influence in welding together two million Negro Baptists into a coherent organization; and the late Dr. F. J. Shadd, secretary of the Medical Faculty, Howard University. The bulletin calls special attention to the increased numbers, and also to the activites of the graduates of the college within recent years. Nine such graduates are pursuing post graduate work in the leading universities of the country, seven pursuing theology, nine, Law and twenty-one, Medicine. The pamphlet points out in these terms the need of higher education of the Negro. "The higher education of the Negro is justified by the requirements of the leaders of the people. It is a grave mistake to suppose that, because the Negro is relatively backward as compared to the white man, his leaders need not have the broadest and best education that our civilization affords. The more backward and ignorant the led, the more skilled and sagacious should the leader be. It requires more skill to lead the helpless than to guide those who need no direction. If the blind lead the blind, they will both fall into the ditch. The professional class constitutes the light of the race. The Negro needs headlights to guide him safely and wisely amid the dangers and vicissitudes of an environing civilization. The Negro teacher meets with every form of ignorance and pedagogical obtuseness that befalls the white teacher; the Negro preacher has to do with every form of original and acquired sin; the doctor meets with every variety of disease that the human flesh is heir to; the lawyer's sphere covers the whole gamut involving the rights of property and person. The problems involved in the contact, attrition and adjustment of the races involve issues which are as intricate as any that have, ever taxed human wisdom for solution. If, then, the white man who stands in the high place of authority and leadership among his race, fortified as he is by a superior social environment, needs to qualify for his high calling by thorough and sound educational training, surely the Negro needs a no less thorough general education to qualify him Jenkins Orphan Band in City The Jenkins Orphan Band of Charleston, S. C., arrived in the city on Friday of last week and after a stay of a week left for Jacksonville and the east coast of Florida. The band, as is the case in their-yearly visits here, was seen, in every section of the city and wherever it played a large crowd could be found. It was composed of sixteen boys, the youngest 9 years and the oldest 16 Mr. Paul G. Daniels was in charge of the boys and said that they did fairly well while here. The boys will return to the orphanage about the first of March. Two Ministers of Tatnall Association Dead Two prominent ministers of the Tatnall Baptist Association died during last month, namely Rev. R. S. Riley and Rev. Z. L. Lyde, the former died on the 21st and the latter on the 22nd. Rev. Lyde was ex-treasurer of the association, secretary of the Sunday school convention, and held many other prominent offices in the church, among them a trusteeship of Central City College. He was pastor of four churches in the association at the time of his death. NewjStage Manager at Pekin Mr. J. H Campbell, who arrives in the city Monday, will have charge of staging productions at the Pekin Theatre. Mr. Campbell, who it will be recalled was here in a similar capacity at the Pekin about two years ago, closes an engagement today at the Majestic theatre, Washington, D.C. Mr. Campbell will be here for an indefinite stay. Several new persons are booked for next week's show at the Pekin. Splendid Crowd at Congregational Brotherhood As representative a crowd of men as have ever been assembled on Sunday afternoon to hear an address was present at the meeting of the Congregational Brotherhood of the First Congregational church last Sunday. The feature of the meeting was an address by Dr. Henry A. Atkinson, secretary of the Social Service Commission of the Congregational church. The address of Mr. Atkinson was excellent and much enjoyed by the large audience. Deaths Mr. Thomas Johnson died Wednesday of last week and was buried on last Sunday, from Bethlehem Baptist Church. He leaves to mourn his death a devoted wife and a host of friends. Mr. Ambrose L. Cannal, son of Mr. and Mrs., Amos Cannal, died in Baltimore, Md., last Saturday after a short illness. Mr. Cannal was employed as headwaiter in one of the hotels of Baltimore. He was born in this city 28 years ago and was a former student of both the Georgia State College and Howard University. The body of Mr. Cannal arrived in the city yesterday, accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Lizzie Fobb Cannal. The funeral will take place this afternoon from St. Benedict's church at 3 o'clock. Besides his parents and wife, the deceased is survived by a sister, Mrs. Dora Ingram, two brothers. Mr. Edward Cannal, of Jacksonville, Fla., and Mr. A. Clayton Cannal, of Nashville, Tenn. The funeral of Mrs. Maggie Allen Richards, who died on Monday of last week after an illness of six months, took place from St. Philip church, Charles and West Broad streets, the following Wednesday afternoon. The services were conducted by Rev. R. H. Singleton, the pastor. She was well-known in the city and had many friends. The floral designs were beautiful. The deceased is survived by a mother, Mrs. Maggie Allen, and a sister; Mrs. Susie Cook. to serve as philosopher, guide and friend of ten million unfortunate human beings NUMBER 21 Business League In Meeting WOMEN URGED TO PATRO NIZE COLORED MERCHANTS Mass Meeting in Interest of Negro Business Enterprises Will Be Held on 20th of Month-Every Negro Asked To Spend One Dollar More a Week With the Negro Merchants The few members of the Negro Business League who could not be present at the meeting Wednesday night missed the treat of their lives. No such enthusiasm, interest and general determination to more loyally support race enterprises has ever been shown. There was unmistakable evidence of the beginning of a new and better era for the Negro business men of Savannah. Members of the league are beginning to realize what limitless possibilities there are here for material advancement when the race more heartily supports its own people in business. The crystalized opinion of the league is that the first step is for all the members to support one another and thus form a nucleus around which may be built a race loyalty to which we all can point with pride. To this end the league is not only planning to get out catalogues showing the names and addresses of the Negro business houses, stating in what each one is engaged, but will also very soon have their business advertised on 5000 cards to go to the homes of as many Negroes. It is hoped that every Negro who reads this article will resolve to spend at least one dollar more each week with our business men and women. It will come back to you through your churches, your Sunday schools, your secret societies, through employment that will be given to your sons and daughters and numerous other ways. Every house-wife and every daughter who help to turn the tide of trade in our direction hastens the time when our young men no longer will have to remain single because they feel unable to support a family.. Ladies, patronize the men and women of our race, it will pay! Most of you who are not married, hope to, and this support means happier homes. We hope all other-business men in particular and race lovers in general will join the league and band themselves together as all other people are doing for material prosperity. Meet us at the mammoth meeting to be held at St. Phillip's A. M. E. church, at 8 o'clock p. m., Friday, February 20, 1914, under the auspices of the Negro Business League. The pastors of all the churches are asked to assist us in making this meeting a success in any-way they think best and especially by announcing it in all their weekly and Sunday meetings for the next two weeks. Regular meetings of the league are held the first Wednesday and third Friday nights in each month at 457 West Broad street. A. B. Singfield, Pres, W. W. Hill, Sec.

How to be a brother indeed—how in the midst of diversities of interest, diversities of condition, diversities of opinion and belief, diversities of race and nation, to be brothers still, loving brothers in a world rent by violence, sundered by partition walls, full of intolerance and party feeling, sectarian strife and exclusiveness of caste, to be brothers amid the distinctions of common life, where wealth and poverty, obscurity and eminence jostle each other, where religious and political differences, social distinctions and the exclusiveness of wealth all conspire to set men at a greater distance and to water and cultivate the obnoxious weed of selfishness is a problem which Freemasonry undertakes to solve. It has combined the scattered elements of society, recalled men to a sense of their fraternal relations, revived the sometimes almost extinguished faith in friendship and virtue, opened a new temple and set up a new altar above all prejudice and dissensions and selfishness, above all distinctions except moral goodness—a temple dedicated to universal friendship, an altar at which humanity may kneel, where brethren may seek refuge together from the strife and storms of human passion defence and shelter within an inviolable sanctuary of peace and love. While holding itself aloof from the separate creeds, the symbolism of Masonry which is its peculiar mode of instruction, inculcates all the duties which we owe to God as being His children and to men as being their brethren. But above all and before all, it has taught a principle which has permeated its every nerve, coursed through its every vein, and responded to every throbbing of its heart, that man is sovereign over his mind and must deal in charity with the opinions and judgment of his fellows. If then, anywhere, there is taught that the mind of man is subject to the control of another mind, subject to like frailties, to an equally imperfect human vision, which at the very best must be but an inadequate conception of God and his dealing with His creature, man, whether it originates in either an individual or an organized effort, Freemasonry wars against that system, whatever may be its claims to infallibility. The origin of Freemasonry was shrouded in the darkness of past ages, yet some rays converged and united into the warm glow of its influence, were felt in every part of the inhabitable globe. Freemasonry was a brotherhood based on morality—it discouraged every thing that was cruel and selfish. To succeed in securing an entrance into Freemasonry was indeed an honor. It has been, by unthinking critics, objected to as a secret society, but every family and every business has its secret. The secrets of Freemasonry need not remain hidden from any man worthy of admission, but they could not be cast before those who would not appreciate their value.—R W. Barr. That the best of men are Masons proves that the secrecy of the Order does not cover any iniquity, but that all of its secret work is at least emblematic of the purest and best of moral ethics. A LODGE MASON An obligation no more makes a man a Mason than does subscribing to a creed of a particular church make one a true follower of the doctrines inculcated by that church. One may attend church every day and be conversant with every ceremony and be no Christian, or attend the Temple and repeat prayer and be no Jew. Similarly a man may be present whenever his lodge convenes, know the work perfectly and be only a lodge Mason. Like some frequenters of churches and temples whose religion never stays beyond the confines of the religious edifice his Masonry may be and is confined to lip service and ritual work. Such men are never Masons and no amount of obligations can make them Masons. Men whose hearts do not realize, and whose minds cannot comprehend the real usefulness of Masonry; men who cannot apply the teachings of the Craft to their lives and to the practice in their daily existence, and feel their Masonry only within the precincts of the lodge room, such men are a detriment and a hindrance to the cause that Masonry represents.—Jacob Neets in Masonic Advocate.

The Flag. On June 14, 1777, the Continental congress resolved that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, and that the Union be thirteen white stars on a blue field. On Jan. 13, 1794, by an act of congress, the flag was altered to fifteen red and white stripes and fifteen stars. On April 4, 1815, congress again altered the flag by returning to the original thirteen stripes and fifteen stars, as the adding of a new stripe for each additional state would soon make the flag too large. A new star is added to the flag on July 4 following the admission of each new state.—New York American. Special Notice Mrs. Mamie E.

Add a small cupful of cream, cover top with breadcrumbs and bake in a hot oven. Serve with celery and thin slices of buttered brown bread. For Special Occasions Chaudfroid of Oysters. — Blanch twelve large oysters in their own liquor, drain them and remove the beards. Have ready some aspic mayonnaise, coat each oyster well with this and let them set on the ice on a wire tray. Stamp out some dot shapes of red pimento, place these in rings of olives and set one in the center of each oyster. Mask with a little dissolved aspic and place them on little round croutes of fried or toasted bread. Serve and garnish with parsley sauce. - These Are Digestible. Panned Oysters. - Toast thin slices of stale bread, butter and place in a shallow baking dish. Moisten with the liquor from the oysters and cover with raw oysters. Season with salt, pepper and small bits of butter. Cover with a tight lid and cook in a hot oven for seven or eight minutes or until they swell and the edges curl. They can also be panned in their own juice in a frying pan, seasoning with butter, pepper and salt. Serve on toast. Cooked In Shells. Oysters and Mushrooms.-Take some scallop dishes, as many as there are persons to serve. Put a small piece of butter into a hot stewpan. Add the oysters when the butter melts, with an equal quantity of chopped, mushrooms, a minced shallot, some chopped parsley, salt and pepper to taste. Let these cook over a brisk fire for a minute or two; then fill the shells with the mixture. Put bits of butter here and there. Sprinkle with powdered cracker crumbs and brown the top with a red-hot poker or small shovel. Annas Thompson. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD EAT RAISINS OFTEN. DUNCHEON MENU. Liver and Bacon. Baked Sweet Potatoes. Johnnycake. Apples Stuffed With Raisins. Cookies. Tea. THE amount of nourishment in raisins and their delicate flavor commend them as frequent ingredients in desserts. Some helpful hints along this line are given here. Nice For Breakfast. Apples Stuffed With Raisins.—Take large, perfect Greening apples, pare and core, making the cavity in coring larger than usual. Prepare a stuffing of finely chopped, seeded raisins that have been thoroughly washed, a generous lump of butter and a little salt. Stuff the apples very compactly and sprinkle over all some sugar. Tie each apple in a clean linen cloth like an English plum pudding and cook two hours in boiling water. Then serve immediately, when very hot, with thick hard sauce or cream sauce. Raisin Pie.—Remove the seed from a pound of fine raisins and stew them until tender in two cupfuls of water. Add to them a cupful of sugar and a tablespoonful of molasses, the juice of one sweet orange and half its grated rind, the juice of one lemon and half its grated rind, two eggs beaten to a froth, a piece of butter the size of an egg and a generous thickening of well dried bread crumbs. Flavor with cinnamon and salt and bake in one or two crusts as preferred. When one crust is used, cover the top with meringue. Wholesome Puddings. Raisin Rice Pudding.—Boil the rice until tender. Then take one and one-half cupfuls of the cooked rice, one quart milk, three eggs beaten light, four tablespoonfuls sugar, one teaspoonful vanilla and one cupful raisins. Put in a baking dish, grate a little nutmeg on top and bake until brown. Raisin Bread Pudding.—Take a tablespoonful of sugar and half a teaspoonful of salt and mix them in a pint of creamy milk—it is richer to have cream—and scald to the boiling point. Instantly remove from the fire and pour it over a heaping pint of bread crumbs. Add butter the size of an English walnut and set aside in a covered dish for an hour. Then stir into the mixture a pound of raisins that have been placed in the oven for seven or eight minutes and become puffed and full, four stiff beaten eggs, the juice of half a lemon and a little nutmeg. Put in a large, well buttered bowl, cover with a buttered wax paper and then tie into a clean linen pudding cloth and boil for two hours. Serve with wine sauce.

Making It Last. A young man was lately leaving his aunt's house after a visit when, finding it was beginning to rain, he caught up an umbrella that was smugly placed in a corner and was proceeding to open it when the old lady, who for the first time observed his movements, sprang toward him, exclaiming: "No, no; that you never shall! I've had that umbrella twenty-three years, and it has never been wet yet, and I am sure it shan't be wetted now!"—London Express To Make Shaving Easier. To shave easily and save the blades of safety razors, leave a pleasant feel on the face and make all razors take less stropping, adopt the following plan: Lather the face well and wash off the lather. That gets rid of all dust. Then with a small brush work into the skin a little vaseline, and without removing this relather the face well, and then shave. The first day or two the plan does not seem so successful, but after that the advantages are very marked.—London Field. The Real Thing. Mrs. Knielker—Is your husband hard to get along with? Mrs. Bocker—Very. If I give him a poor dinner he wants a divorce, and if I give him a good dinner he calls it lobbying.—New York Times The Sleepless Saven. "There were seven of the twelve," said one of the discharged jurors in speaking of the matter next morning, "who didn't want to sleep themselves and wouldn't let the rest of us sleep. Whenever we dropped in a doze they came around and shook us till we were wide awake again." "And you had to submit, I suppose, for they constituted the majority?" "Yes. They were a rousing majority," said the hollow eyed juror, with a pensive attempt to be facetious.—Chicago Tribune. Mexican Hats. A hat such as is worn by Mexicans may cost anywhere from 5 cents to $500. The better ones weigh from six to eight pounds and carry many dollars' worth of silver and gold trimming YOUNG BROS.

There are but few persons who do not relish them, but such fatal mistakes are made by gatherers that many are disinclined to eat them, or at least do so with more or less reluctance. Mushrooms may be bought in the markets, or the dried ones are sold in the shops. Grilled Mushrooms—Mushrooms for grilling must be of a large and even size. After having washed them and cut off the stalks, dip them in olive oil, season with salt and pepper, then grill over a bright fire, turning them when done on one side. Arrange in a vegetable dish, the hollow side upward, then place in the center of each mushroom a very small pat of maitre d'hotel butter or parsley butter and serve hot. Mushrooms In Cases. Wipe and peel eight cup mushrooms, cut them into small dice and fry them with an ounce of butter in a sauté pan. Butter some souffle cases, paper or china, lay a thin slice of lemon in each, three parts fill with prepared mushrooms and season to taste. Spread a layer of potted deviled meat mixed with a yolk of egg, over the mushrooms, brush over with melted butter and bake for fifteen minutes. A Dainty Way. Mushroom Croutes.—Take slices of stale white bread, stamp these out into rounds or oblongs with a fancy or plain cutter, fry them in butter to a golden color and drain. Have ready the required quantity of large button mushrooms, peeled, minus stalks and fried in butter; also a mixture of finely chopped beef and ham, moistened with a little rich brown sauce. When quite hot spread the meat mixture over the croutes, place a mushroom on each; season with salt, pepper, cayenne and a little lemon juice. Put them in a hot oven for a few minutes, dish up, garnish with fried parsley and serve. Served on Toast. Mushroom With Eggs.—Peei and take the stalks from four or five mushrooms, wash and drain them, then cut them into small slices, place them in a stewpan with two ounces of 'butter and season well with salt and pepper and allow them to stew gently for twenty minutes. Break six eggs into a basin and beat them up thoroughly; add two tablespoonfuls of milk and pour the mixture over the mushrooms in the stewpan. Stir them gently with a spoon until the mixture is set. Anna Thompson. The KITCHEN GUPBOARD JUST A FEW TURNIPS. TURNIPS should be prepared in the following ways to make them popular in families that find turnips cooked in the ordinary ways insipid: Fried Turnips.—Pare and cut turnips in half inch slices, soak for twenty minutes in cold water. Drain and parboil them tor twenty minutes, drain again and wipe dry. Salt, pepper and dip in corn meal or flour and fry in bacon fat or other shortening. A Novel Way. Stewed Sugared Turnips.—Take turnips of equal size, put them into a saucepan with a lump of butter and fry till well browned. Sprinkle powdered sugar over them, season with a little salt, pour in about a teacupful of stock according to the number of turnips. Place the cover on the saucepan and let it simmer till they are tender. Serve on a hot dish. Turnips With Tarragon S. ove—Take some turnips, scrape, wash and trim them and boll them. Then serve them with a sauce made as follows: Prepare half a cupful of melted butter sauce, using milk and no water; season it add a teaspoonful of finely minced dried tarragon and bring it to boiling point. Have ready the yolk of an egg beaten up with a large teaspoonful of lemon juice, stir this quickly into the sauce and remove it at once from the stove, and then add half a tablespoonful of fresh butter and pour the sauce over the turnips. Served With Boiled Meats. Turnips and Potatoes.—Take two good sized turnips, pare and cut into slices, drop into an uncovered vessel of boiling unsalted water and cook just below the boiling point until transparent. Have ready boiled the same bulk of Irish potatoes. Drain the turnip slices in a colander, let the potatoes dry off, then add them to the turnip and press both through into a hot dry dish. Add half a tablespoonful of butter, half a teaspoonful of salt, a dusting of white pepper and paprika. Beat until light, then add two tablespoonfuls of hot milk or four tablespoonfuls of reheated cream sauce or thick cream soup of any kind. Beat and pile in a small hot dish. Send at once to the table. Use a dish without a cover. Anna Thompson HAPPY THOUGHTS. Make for yourselves nests of pleasant thoughts. None of us yet know, for none of us have been taught in early youth, what fairy palaces we may build of beautiful thoughts, proof against all adversity, bright fancies, satisfied memories, noble histories, faithful sayings, treasure houses of precious and restful thoughts.—Ruskin. Not as Bad as It Might Have Been. "Now that your boys have gone away to school and your daughters have got married I suppose you find it rather dismal around home, don't you, Mr. Cadgerley?" "Well, it's not as bad as it might be. When I begin carving at dinner now I always know that it will be my turn to eat before everything is so cold that if it is tasteless."—Chicago Record-Herald. Hand to Mouth. "Are you getting accustomed to New York?" asked the talkative grocer. "By degrees," said the woman. "I think I like it a little better than I did at first. "But how did you know that we had just moved to town? I never told you." "No, you never told me, but the way you bought groceries did. You bought in such large quantities. This showed that you had just come from some place where people had plenty of storeroom and so bought groceries by the box and barrel instead of by the pound. But I see you are getting used to keeping house on two kitchen shelves and are buying in driblets, like all New Yorkers"—New York Times. Got His Reward. Years ago a tradesman whose name is now a household word was employed in a modest capacity in a west end shop in London. While exhibiting some delicate ware to the very first customer he served he let it fall and break. The customer, a doctor, good naturedly took the blame and paid for the broken article. Years later the salesman, now a wealthy man, called on the doctor, reminded him of the incident and settled on him $5,000 a year for life.—London Express. The Wickedest Bit of Sea. Nine out of ten travelers would tell inquirers that the roughest piece of water is that cruel stretch in the English channel, and nine out of ten travelers would say what was not true. As a matter of fact, "the wickedest bit of sea" is not in the Dover strait or in yachting, for example, from St. Jean de Luz up to Paullillac or across the Mediterranean "race" from Cadiz to Tangier, nor is it in rounding Cape Horn, where there is what sailors call a "true" sea. The "wickedest sea" is encountered in rounding the Cape of Good Hope for the eastern portion of Cape Colony.—London Globe. Off and On. The speaker, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was addressing a Y. M. C. A. meeting in Cleveland. "Save when you're young," repeated Mr. Rockefeller, with a smile. "The years will pass swiftly. Then when you find yourself well on you'll also find yourself well off." St. Peter's In Rome St. Peter's is certainly the most amazing church in the world. It is not beautiful—I am satisfied that no true artist would grant that—but after you have been all over Europe and have seen the various edifices of importance it still sticks in your mind as astounding—perhaps the most astounding of all.—From Theodore Dreiser's "A Traveler at Forty." Giving Happiness. To make some nook of God's creation a little fruitfuler, better, more worthy of God, to make some human hearts a little wiser, manfuller, happier, more blessed, less accursed—it is a work for a 'God'—Carlyle. Witty Savings. W. S. Gilbert said of Beerbohm Tree's Hamlet that it was "funny without being coarse." During an Englishman's lecture in New Haven the usher said to a late comer: "Please, sir, take your seat as quietly as possible. The audience is asleep." A Philadelphia woman said: "Of course, there will be no marriage in heaven. There will be plenty of women there and a few men, but none any one would care to marry." DO IT WELL What is worth doing at all is worth doing well. Not giving your whole, undivided attention to the task in which you have invested your life and money means that you are wasting your own precious time and that of others. Whatever you do, do it with your whole heart and mind or get out and try something else. It takes pretty nearly all of a man's time to perfect an undertaking, provided it be a big and worthy one to begin with. Milady's Mirror Home Care of the Nails. A home manicuring outfit is a great convenience. It should contain two or three smooth, nicely polished sticks, a pair of small, curved, sharp pointed scissors, a couple of emery boards, a nailbrush (not too stiff), a slender, flexible file of hard steel; a box of any guaranteed nail polish, a soft buffer and a small bottle of peroxide of hydrogen, with a bit of lemon and a fine toilet pumice stone. A soap with olive oil in it will be found the best, and a jar, of plain cold cream should be provided. If the nails have been neglected and seem clogged with dirt and grime fill them with cold cream, rubbing it in well; then with a piece of fine old linen remove the dirt from one set with the nails of the other hand, never with an instrument of steel. A little white vaseline should be on hand also, as it heals and helps to prevent brittleness. After the soaking rub in the vaseline well, then use the brush and clean suds, warm, but not hot. The nails are then ready for the careful looking over to rid them of any ragged bits of flesh clinging to the sides and base. The stick should be dipped into the peroxide and passed around the nails as well as under. This helps to whiten and cleanse them. If there are callous places use the toilet pumice with the soapy water, rinsing well afterward. Stains may require the juice of a lemon, but cold cream should be applied after to prevent the roughness that would otherwise be caused by the acid, and great care must be taken not to cut the skin around the base, or it will remain ragged, as it is really a "selvage." Filing Finger Nails. Before beginning the home manicuring the file, which should be a thin, flexible one, should be used. The nails are then in a condition to stand this, as after the soaking they will be too soft. They should never be allowed to grow too far beyond the tip of the finger. Long, pointed nails are entirely out of style, if they were ever in, as a woman does not want the talons of the Chinaman at the ends of her pretty fingers. So, in the filing, rub them down to pass just a trifle beyond the finger itself, rounding them nicely, and do not file the sides down too closely, as the natural support is then withdrawn, and this causes hane nails. Often a nail will persistently break or show a flaw in the same place for years. As the new nail grows the split or crack seems to come naturally, and the only cure is to watch that nail, using the emery board to smooth off the first sign of the flaw. Ridged Nails. The little emery boards should be used daily to remove any roughened edges from the nails, and it is advisable to use these every day instead of the steel file. Where the nails are scaly and ridged it shows an excess of acid in the blood. Those afflicted with rheumatism often find their nails ridged as they grow and the ends will break off in fine scales. Some treatment for the disease itself should be used, and, in addition, a small piece of wash leather, dipped into powdered pumice stone, will make the nails fairly smooth, but there should also be used a little thick gelatin. Dip each nail in this at night, wrap the fingers separately in old linen and let it remain all night. Dip each into warm water next morning. This helps greatly in preventing and curing the scaliness. Simple Nail Powder. A good nail powder is made of a quarter ounce of talcum powder, boric acid and starch, also powdered very fine. Add a few drops of carmine tincture. Mix the powders and add the tincture. Pass the whole through a fine sieve three times, forcing out all lumps. Coat the nails with a very small bit, rubbing it in well with the fingers; then use the buffer lightly. If too much is applied it should be rinsed off, the nails carefully wiped dry and then the buffer used, finishing by rubbing the nails of one hand on the palm of the other, a natural polisher. Too Much Manicuring. When the finger nails are constantly breaking and seem soft and brittle there is either something wrong in the general health or they are improperly cared for. Many women in the effort to have nice nails scrub and file and polish all the health out of them, making them frail and too thin. Usually too much manicuring does the harm, so it is just as well to let them alone once in awhile, permitting them to thicken and harden, so they will stand the ordinary wear and tear of daily use. White Spots on Nails. When white spots are on the nails they show a bruise. Although the cause may be called, and they also denote a nervous condition of the system, half ounce of myrrh and refines, teh and spread over the nails at night, wearing glove fingers. In the morning apply olive oil to remove this, and use almond meal in place of soap for the hands. TRY TO BE CHEERFUL Cheerfulness, like other good qualities, can be developed and increased, and whoever omits its culture neglects an important duty to himself and to society. The fact that few men can do their best work or think their best thoughts unless a cheerful spirit animates them should be sufficient reason for setting in motion every cause which produces such a spirit. Tiny Goust. The republic of Goust is a square mile in the Pyrenees which for the last three centuries has been recognized by Spain and France as independent. It has a population of about 150 weavers. They are ruled by a council of elders and pay no taxes or duties of any sort. This civic unit is so tiny that it has to go abroad for its cure of souls and body, for it has neither physician nor priest, for these needs it has to go to Laruns, the nearest French town. Even the dead must leave Goust to find consecrated ground in which to lie, the coffins being slid downhill and thus out of the smallest republic in the world. Not Worded the Same Just as the family was about to sit down to the evening meal the minister unexpectedly dropped in and was asked to join them. When the maid set the table she had turned the plates bottom side up. Written on the bottom was the name of the manufacturer. The minister was asked to say grace, and as he did so he reverently bowed his head above his plate. When he had finished the little five-year-old daughter of the house picked up her plate, looked at the manufacturer's name closely and said: "Papa, it doesn't say that on my plate."—Ladies' Home Journal. Discovery of Turtle Soup. Discovery of Turtle Soup. According to some authorities, Bristol has a special claim to fame as the city where turtle soup was invented by a seventeenth century mayor, who was also a shipowner. The captain of one of his ships brought home a live turtle; thinking that his worship would like to have it in his fishpond. This happened just as the mayor was about to give a civic banquet, and, deeming that his guests might appreciate a new dish, he ordered the turtle to be stewed. The corporation was so delighted with the novelty that it re-elected its host to the municipal chair nine times running.—London Chronicle. Restaurant Affiliations The waiter in the light lunch cafe looked expectantly at the first of five men who had just entered. "Bring me a coffee cake and a cup of coffee," ordered the first man. "I'll take some milk biscuit and a glass of milk," said the second. "Tea buns and a cup of tea, please," remarked the third. "A piece of coconut pie and a cup of cocoa," said the fourth. cocoa, and the fourth. The waiter went to the fifth man. "I know what you want," he said. "You want a slice of chocolate cake and a cup of chocolate." "No; I do not," protested the fifth man. "I want a plate of ice cream and a glass of ice water."—Judge. Stevenson Carried His Tall Hat. "R. L. S." said Sir Sidney, "did once possess a frock coat and tall hat, which he acquired for the purposes of a wedding. Coming to London subsequently, he made the concession to my respectability of donning the coat and hat, and thus we walked down Piccadilly. But the hat was in Stevenson's hand, and as the gates of Burlington House closed on us, Stevenson was declaiming in vibrant voice and rich Scotch accent a chorus from Milton's 'Samson Agonistes.'"—London Globe. Illusions. A rude shock greets the idea that the testimony of eyewitnesses is especially reliable when one comes to study the laws of evidence. The majority of persons see what they think they ought to see. If a house is reported haunted it is easier to see a ghost there than not. Possibly this accounts for the widespread belief that luminous appearances of one kind or another accompany earthquake shocks. Scientific men do not believe these stories, and they usually dwindle on investigation, yet they continue to circulate on both sides of the Atlantic, says a writer in Cosmos, Paris, translated for the Literary Digest. Memory. Dear as remembered kisses after death. All our sensations are memory, some say. It may be. It may not be. But this we know: The perfume that is the finest is the perfume of reminiscence. It may be a vagrant fragrance from the woods or in the city's air. The song neglected, but remembered, is the most appealing. The taste acquired in childhood is that that tickles most our older palate. A friend is a composite of our memories. Sometimes that part of us that is the bud and leaf seems the whole tree. But we would die without the roots. Memory is the roots and sap of us.—Kansas City Star. We make a specialty of framing diplomas, marriage licenses and pictures of all sizes.

Saturday, February 7, 1914. — Wise Necro Chauffeurs + The Negro chauffeurs of Atlanta are to be commended. They are an offi- cered organization. As organization members they have pledged themselves against reckless speeding in view. ol the risk {avolved to property, and life and to abstain from alcoholic beverage: both on and off duty, in view of -the use of strong drink being a contribut- ary cause to this recklessness---Augus- ta _Chrenicle. The Negro chauffeur is here to stay. Intelligent Negro mez make good auto drivers and their employers should en. courage them to perfect organizations in keeping with that in Atlanta. The colored chauffeur who wants to obey the traffic regulations and the Iaw can do a great deal toward law enforcement by inducing others to do likewise.—Sa- vannah Press. The colored chauffeurs of Sa- vannah have long seen the neces- sity of organizing and giving more efficient service. They have been organized for sgyeral years and have been incorporated by the Superior Court. When it comes to eflicioncy and faithfulness Sa- vannah’s colored citizenry is se- cond ton one. Among the leading churchmen ef our country andsthe werld, onc of the greatest present day ques- tions is, how can theattandance at church be increased, and while divers plans have been suggested and tried from time to time with varying degrees of succass, yet none recently tried has giyen as much encouragement, judging by results, as the ‘’Go-to-church- Sunday” recently tried in Chica- go, Baltimore and a few other large cities. In Chicago alone, according to report, at least a half-million people who had failed for some time to be regular church attendants, renewed the acquaint- ance with the church on ‘*Go-to- eburch Sunday.” Such a magnif- icent result as tiis is indeed grati- fying and speaks volumes of praise for those who labored so success- fully ia the interest of the church. And now that success has attend- ed the efforts of those who have striven for an increased attendance at our churches, the aim should be now to keep an eyo on those who have renewed church ac- quaintance with a view to keep them from becoming luke-warm or indifferent as to their church attendance in tho future. This great move on the part of the elergy of Chicago, Baltimore and a few other of our large tities to increase the church attendance is indeed a timely one and worthy of emulation on the part of those of our clergy who find themselves Sunday after Sunday speaking to audiences which fill only a very small part of their church edifices. The presence of larger congrega- tyons at our chureh services can but have a very salutary effect »upon evil and evil doers wherever found. The clergy of Chicago and Baltimore have acted well. The results obtained are deserved. In our humble opinion, we believe that it would be well for others of the clergy of our cities to inaugu- rate themselses a Go-to-church- Sunday. That the solons of South Caro- lina are somewhat in dire need of appropriate and constructive legis. lative Subjects upon which they may spend their time in the in- terest of the people whom they were elected to serve, is attestec ina lerge measure by the great prominence which they have given the race question. Ae. cording to repert, no other sub: ject called for such prolonged debates or drawn out discussion: during which much feeling was shown, us was the question anent the Negro. While we have felt for some tittle time that the fu. ture of our people in the Pal- metto State did not appear so roseate under the regime of the present zovernor of south Caro- Jina and his cohorts, at the same time we had hoped that the ma- jor portion of these who sit in her legisiative halls would fail to sanction or ratify by iegislative ‘enactments any of the ultra radi- cal vie vs of which he is’ the spdn- syr How-ver, lnppeaings seem to the contrary and*from all indi- cations, the great question of state now uppermost in the minds of our distinguished South Caro- lina Jaw makers is, not how te make South Carolina by virtue of her present and prospective industries and resources one of the greatest commonwealths’ of our union, but what is the bes! method or means to keep down the Negroes of the State.” We do not know how far Governor Blease has been able to influence legislation in his State. That he has great influence there is no doubt. But, as tothe extent of it, we donot know. However, we do know that the legislature’s refusal to consider the compul- sory educational bill, for the.rea- son that Negroes would be bene- fited thereby, as well as_ its eagerness to pass a bill prohibit- ing white teachers from teaching Negro children within the State, give to those ina distance ample reason to believe that the Bléase propaganda of Negro blasphemy, antipathy and annihilation is in the ‘ascendancy. In their mad march of curtailment and destruc- tion of all that pertains to Negro interests, Governor Blease .and his legislative creatures will do well to remember that in doing the Negro this less harm, they are doing their State more. South Carolina, like all the other States, cannot rise toany appre- ciables height above the dead selves ofa part of her citizenry to whom she has denied the op- portunity to rise to the full sta- ture of her citizenship. Already the good State of South Carolina has suffered . much on account of the blatant and unde- mocratic acts of those of her cit- izens to whom she has given the sacred vestments of some of hor highest offices. As time passes, we sincerely trust that these same officers will be able to understand that they best serve their State when they administer to the wants of not only a part but to all of the people at all times.

Ofcourse we do not believe im such as ‘had luck” ete., but since so many of our friends have kept reminded of the danger of becoming’ the victim ef some form of ‘hoo doo-ism” we thought it wise to be more careful along business limes in 1913 than we would have been un- der ordinary circumstances and as fa consequence we just literally “cleaned up” for old “‘hoo-doo.” Now we will give you the secret which is a well cultivated habit ef progressiveness: then too it is con- tagious. andif you join the Ga.

Georgia Real Estate Company GENERAL AGENTS, Phone 114 Office, 7 YORK STREET. East McDowell & Shaw, SALES AGENTS 1009 WEST BROAD STREET. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD BREAKFAST MENU. Oranges. Cereal of Choice. Fried Mush With Motasses. Breaded Kidneys and Bacon. Coffee or Cocoa. THERE is probably no meal which counts more to the average per- counts more to the average person than the first repast of the day. It should be borne in mind that the appetite is usually more fickle in the morning than it would be late in the day. Indeed, the sense of taste is never so keen as at an early hour. On this account the dishes selected for breakfasts should at all times be well seasoned, daintily and attractively served, and yet simple in character. Elaborate dishes should as much as possible be avoided. Fine Appetizers. Breaded Kidneys and Bacon.—Take half a pound of beef kidney, a quarter pound of bacon, egg and crumbs. Cut the kidney into slices and season with salt and pepper. Egg and crumb these and fry until nicely browned, place the bacon in rolls on a skewer and toast in front of the fire. Dish daintily with a roll of bacon on each slice of kidney and serve hot. Broiled Bacon With Bananas.—Cut the required number of rashers of streaky bacon and broil them on both sides over the fire on a grillon or in a pan. Peel some bananas, cut each in half lengthways, season with salt and very little pepper, dip each in egg and roll in breadcrumbs and fry in bacon fat. Serve with the bacon and place half a banana on each rasher. Garnish with sprigs of parsley and serve hot. If liked the bananas may be simply fried in the bacon fat without being first egged and crumbed. Minced Foods. Fried Tripe.—Take some boiled tripe, wash and then boil it one hour, cut into small pieces and dry. In the morning dust with salt, pepper and flour; then dip in egg (an egg beaten with a tablespoonful of grated onion and one tablespoonful of cold milk), then in breadcrumbs. Fry in deep very hot drippings until a nice brown. Serve on hot platter garnished with parsley. Ham Timbales. - Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter, add a quarter of a cupful of stale breadcrumbs and two-thirds of a cupful of milk. Add one cupful of chopped cooked ham, two beaten eggs and half a tablespoonful of finely chopped parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Turn Into greased molds, filling them two-thirds full. Set in a pan containing hot water, cover with buttered paper and bake about twenty minutes. Remove from molds to hot serving dish and place small sprig of parsley on top of each. Anna Shropson. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD CREAMED CODFISH. CREAMED fish is a palatable dish when the usual meats have grown tiresome, says an authority on cooking. With it corn mullins are particularly good, while a potato and endive salad is appetizing. Cod and Creamed Sauce.—Take two tablespoonfuls of breadcrumbs, one-fourth teaspoonful of chopped parsley, salt and pepper, one-half a lemon rind grated fine, one egg and one ounce of butter. Mix breadcrumbs, parsley and seasoning on the plate. Remove skin from the fish and wash in salt and water. Dry well on a clean cloth, brush it with beaten egg and roll in the mixture. Place in baking pan and bake for about half an hour. When Fish Is Left Over. Creamed Codfish and Potato Sandwich.—Take cold mashed potatoes and whip them until light. Put half of the potato into a shallow baking dish, brush with melted butter, spread over it cold creamed codfish, add the remainder of the potatoes, brush with melted butter and place in a brisk oven for ten minutes. Both mashed potatoes and creamed codfish are leftovers. Creamed Codfish on Toast--Take a cupful each of salt codfish and milk, a tablespoonful each of butter and flour, a dash of paprika and a half teaspoonful of grated onion. Soak the codfish overnight. In the morning pour off the water and cover with cold water. Put it on the stove and bring to the boiling point; then pick into small pieces, mix with the sauce and serve on toast. To make the sauce put the butter and onion into a saucepan, add flour, mix well, add the cold milk slowly, stirring until smooth and creamy, boil three minutes. Dust the creamed codfish with paprika. Served In Delicious Sauce. Creamed Codfish With Eggs.—Take two cupfuls each of flaked codfish and milk, two tablespoonfuls of flour, two tablespoonfuls of butter, salt and pepper to taste, three hard boiled eggs, a tablespoonful of minced parsley. Both the codfish till tender; then reheat in a white sauce made of the other ingredients. Chop the eggs coarsely, add to mixture, sprinkle in the parsley and serve either in a border of mashed potatoes or on toast. Anna Thompson. MINARET YELLOW. Afternoon Gown of This Startling New Shade. CHIC AFTERNOON GOWN, CHIC TERNOON GOWN, Minaret yellow is one of the new and popular shades. It is a rather brilliant tone, but combined with lace, as in the case on the gown illustrated, it is quite pleasing. This tunic of princess lace is sloped to give the smart pointed effect in the back. The costume is for afternoon affairs or for restaurant wear in the evening. The attempt to bring in high collars is as unwelcome as attempts to bring in long sleeves have so far been. In the case of the collars it will probably fail. However, the fact remains that some of the new lingerie waists show high collars and, of course, back closings. The front closing and the low waist are both so comfortable that women will probably cling to them. THE VALENTINE DANCE. Clever-Touches That/Will Make It Social Success. There are so many novel social affairs that suggest themselves for St. Valentine's day that it is difficult to choose. Of course the heart is the symbol of the day and is grouped with Dan Cupid. Invitations engraved or written upon heart shaped cards are sent to the guests. Decorate the room with hearts cut from red cardboard and suspended from ribbons, making a "shower of hearts" to be danced under. A pretty touch could be given to the affair if the girls would wear white dance frocks and trim them with hearts cut from red crape paper. A flounce or fringe of hearts would be most attractive. If a cottillon is danced the favors may be heart shaped boxes of candy, A PARTY GOWN. bouquets, wands topped with hearts, Cupid's bow or a quiver filled with arrows. Many suitable favors come in heart shapes. If not superstitious have the guests come as the thirteen hearts of a pack of cards or add the joker, making fourteen. If there are more to be invited have two of each kind, with the exception of the king, queen and knave. The table decorations may be effectively carried out with hearts. Have a fringe of hearts falling from the edge of the table. A chain of hearts arranged in festoons would be very pretty. Candle shades of hearts and a floral centerpiece of red roses or carnations in a heart design complete the effect. Cupid's darts could be substituted for the hearts in the decorations. A shower of golden arrows makes a lovely decoration. A dainty gown suitable for a valentine dance or theater party is illustrated here. It is of white embroidered pet gullipled with rusks. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD DINNER MENU. Baked Stuffed Skirt Steak. Brown Sauce. Browned White Potatoes. Escaloped Tomatoes. Pineapple Taploca. Coffee. PEOPLE who like pineapple and are aware of the wholesome nature of the fruit will appreciate these nice desserts. Uses For Canned Pineapple. Pineapple With Cream—Cook one can of grated pineapples with a cupful of sugar ten minutes. Strain through a cloth, pressing out the juice. Add a pint of ice water, a cupful of sugar, one-quarter cupful of lemon juice and freeze as usual. Serve in glasses. Decorate the top of each with a star of whipped cream. The whipped cream is prepared as follows: To a cupful of double cream well chilled add one-quarter teaspoonful of vanilla extract and a tablespoonful of powdered sugar. Beat with a whisk until solid. To shape the cream use a pastry bag with star tube attached. Pineapple Tapioca.-Take a cupful of tapioca and soak it overnight. In the morning drain and put it in a double boiler with one and one-half cupfuls of hot water, one-third teaspoonful of salt, a cupful of sugar, one-half can of shredded pineapple and the juice of a lemon and an orange. Cook until clear, fold in the stiffly beaten whites of three eggs, cook two minutes longer and serve cold with or without cream. Served With Cornstarch. Pineapple Blancmange. - Take two and two-thirds cupfuls of milk and scald in a double boiler. Mix one-third cupful of cornstarch with one-third cupful of cold milk and add to the hot milk with three tablespoonfuls of sugar and one-half saltspoonful of salt. Stir until smooth and thick. Cover and cook fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs and one cupful of grated pineapple, turn into wet individual molds, chill and serve with cream, either plain or whipped. Pineapple Sponge.—Take one and one-half cupfuls of grated pineapple, three-fourths cupful sugar and one-half cupful water and let them simmer together for fifteen minutes. Add one-fourth package gelatin soaked in one-fourth cupful cold water, and strain through a cheesecloth, pressing the juice from the pulp. Place in a pan of cracked ice and stir constantly till it begins to set. Then add juice of half a lemon and the beaten whites of two eggs and stir till stiff. Turn into a mold and set in a cold place. This may be served with whipped cream. Anna Thompson. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD SEASONABLE FRUIT TRIFLES. WITH lightness and simplicity are desired in a dessert a fruit trifle is one of the daintiest sweet- that the housewife can contrive. Pineapple Triple.—Take two-thirds of a cupful of sugar and one pint can of grated pineapple and boil until a good sirup is formed. Dissolve one-half package of gelatin in one-half pint of boiling water. Add pineapple sirup, juice of an orange and let set. When well set add one-half cupful of whipped cream and beat until well mixed. In carrying out a color scheme of red or green a decoration of maraschino cherries could be used. It should be topped with whipped cream. Handsomely Decorated. Banana Trifle--Take six bananas, six small sponge cakes, one orange, half a lemon, some strawberry jam, half a pint of good custard, half a pint of cream and half an ounce of pistachio nuts. Peel the bananas and cut them into quarters lengthways. Slice the cake thinly and spread each piece with some jam. Peel the orange, cut it into thin slices and then again into small disks. Grate the lemon rind. Put a layer of the cakes into the dish and put on them a spoonful or two of custard. Next put a layer of the bananas and a few of the pieces of orange and lemon rind. Continue this till the dish is nicely filled up. Pour in the remainder of the custard. Whip the cream and heap it all over the top. Shell and shred the pistachio nuts and stick them in rows over the cream. Two Wholesome Sweets. Apple Trifle.—Take some apples and pass through a sieve to form a thick layer at the bottom of a dish. Scald them, then add sugar to taste and the finely grated rind of half a lemon. Now mix together half a pint of cream, the same quantity of milk, the yolk of an egg and scald over the fire. Stir well and do not let it boll. Add sugar to taste, and when it is cold pour over the apples. Whipped cream flavored with vanilla should cover the whole.

If you want to sell a big bill of goods—watch the barometer. Such is the advice of Dr. Colin A. Scott, professor of psychology in the Boston normal school. The barometer, he says, is as sure an indicator of persons' minds as it is of the weather. You'll find them active and up and doing with the barometer high; gloomy and irritable with the barometer low.—Boston Post. Putting Them at Ease. Precedence is not the only puzzle in official and social circles in any city, but to say the right thing at the right time is equally necessary. "To make mistakes in speech is suicidal," said a state department official recently. "Let it not be as in the case of Mrs. Brody, who gave a party, and when all the guests were in the parlor she entered with a beaming smile and said: "Do make yourselves, at home, ladies. I'm at home myself, and I wish you all were."—Washington Star. Said the Owl to the Quail. A quall, being shot at by a hunter and narrowly escaping with her life, tremblingly took refuge in a thicket. "You are very silly," he remarked, "to allow yourself to be hunted so when you have the means of defense ready at your hand. If you were to stop killing the insects that prey on the wheat and the corn man would speedily perish of starvation." The quail thanked him civilly for his advice. "However, if you don't mind," said she, "I think I prefer to go on doing what is so evidently my duty, let others do as they may."—Farm and Fireside. SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson VII.—First Quarter, For Feb. 15, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Luke xi, 37-54. Memory Verse, 42—Golden Text, Gal. vi, 7—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. When we remember that our blessed Lord knew all men and knew what was in man and every thought of man's heart (John ii, 21, 25; Ezek. xi, 5) we wonder how He in His purity and righteousness could live among men as He did and not be utterly discouraged. But He came to save sinners, knowing that every imagination of the thoughts of man's heart is only evil continually and that every man at his best state is altogether vanity and that all man's righteousness is only filth rags (Gen. vi, 5; Ps. xxxix). As to these Pharisees, if we note what He says of them in Matt. xxiii as well as in our lesson we wonder that He could think of entering one of their homes. If He was only a man, however good, He could not tolerate them, but being God in human form, God manifest in the flesh, He was not wilting that even such should perish and would save them if they would let Him. But they, being ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness, would not submit themselves unto the righteousness of God (Rom. x, 3). They rejected the counsel of God against themselves and derided Him. Yet when they invited Him into their homes He went, as in our lesson and in Luke vil, 36, but he was always "the faithful witness" (Rev. iii, 14) testifying to the love of God and the sinfulness of man. The word "Pharisee" means a separated one, but their separation was not from sin unto God, but from all who did not think as they did and were to them common and unclean, as when one of them said, "God, I thank thee that I am not as other men * * * or even as this publican" (Luke xviii, 11). We may become well acquainted with them by considering our Lord's estimate of them in the "woes" of our lesson and Matt. xxill and Isa. v. They knew not the love of God, but they did love the praise of men. Their religion was wholly outward, seeking only human approval, utterly regardless of what God thought of them or knew them to be (Matt. xxill, 5, 23). Like their ancestors, they regarded not the work of the Lord, neither considered the operation of His hands. They cast away the law of the Lord of hosts and desplused the word of the Holy One of Israel (Isa. v. 12, 24). They honored God with their lips, but their hearts were far from Him, and they made His word of none effect by their traditions (Mark vil, 6, 13; Isa. xxix, 13; Ezek. xxiii, 31). Their religion was from Cain, who was the human founder of all false religion and who was evidently in the mind of our Lord in the great woe chapter when He spoke of the blood of righteous Abel (Matt. xxiii, 35). The greatest hindrance to the gospel is not the worldly world, which lieh in the wicked one (I John v. 19), but the religious people whose religion is all outward, who know not what is to worship God in spirit and in truth, and who think more of what others think of them than of the approval of the Lord Jesus, and who are more sensitive to a reproach against themselves than to a reproach against the name of the Lord. These are the wicked who plot against the just, who watchche the righteous and seeketh to slay him (Ps. xxxvil, 12, 32), even as these men lay in wait for our Lord, seeking to catch something out of His mouth that they might accuse Him. The self righteousness of such people could not take them into the kingdom of heaven (Matt. v, 20), but would doom them to the outer darkness, where there shall be weeping, and grashing of teeth (Matt. vill, 12). Never did our Lord turn away or say a severe word to a truly penitent sinner or one honestly seeking the truth, but to those who professed to be what they were not and yet were righteous in their own estimation He was severe. Yet even such, who thought they had need of nothing. He counseled to buy of Him gold tried in the fire and white raiment and eye salve to cause them to see (Rev. ill, 17, 18). God requires an absolutely perfect righteousness, such as was found only in Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, without blemish and without spot, with whom the Father was always well pleased, and anything less than this will not suffice. We can never attain to such righteousness by our own efforts,—but how glorious is the truth in II Cor. v. 21. "He has made Him who knew nothing of sin to be sin for us, in order that in Him we may become the righteousness of God," or as in I Cor. 1. 30. "He has become for us a wisdom which is from God, consisting of righteousness and sanctification and deliverance" (Weymouth's translation). When once our eyes are opened to see His perfect righteousness and to receive Him, then all seems as nothing compared with His excellency, and we glory only in Him (Phil. iii, 8-10). While we continue in the blindness and darkness of our own pride and self will we can see no beauty in Him, being wholly occupied with ourselves and our own doings, and will consequently reject the counsel of God against ourselves (Luke vil, 30).

JOHNSON, 1009 West Bread St., Savannah, Ga 17 BLUE TAFFETA GOWN. The gown illustrated here is one of the most useful of spring models, for it incorporates many style hints that the wise woman would do well to note. The sleeves are set low on the shoulder, but so adjusted as to have a comfortable fullness at the elbow. The skirt has a moderate fullness, which is caught in at the side with three fancy buttons. Plaid is very prominent in its decoration. This use of plaid is one of the touches which Paris is now imparting to many smart gowns and wishes to make the fashion. Plaids will be exploited more and more as the season advances. This gown was carried out in blue taffeta with plaid silk in harmonious colors. Paris says checks are returning to favor and plaids continue to meet the approval of smartly gowned women who need at least one such simple and practical dress as they afford. Bright buttons, a bit of contrasted trimming material or scarcely more than a trill or vestee gives the style accents. Designers are offering attractive plain models for misses and young women, with novel features to distinguish them from the style of early winter. Travelers' Coat Hanger. A convenience for travelers may be made as follows: Buy two nickel towel rack rods, with the screws, a screwdriver and glimlet. Roll together in paper and place in the trunk when starting on a journey to supply the often felt need of proper hanging conveniences. Adjust your rod at such a distance from the back of the wardrobe that you can slip coat arms over it and give them space to hang in a straight row. When leaving unscrew the rods and take them with you. When this has once been tried it will always be the travelling companion and one that never indulges in moods or whims. Gay Bed Covers. Pretty and useful covers for beds can be made of cretonne or heavy shintz to be used instead of the time honored counterplane. The covers are to be cut at the corners so they will fit and lie flat and may be finished off with lace or wash edging. Use the same material elsewhere in the room—on dresser, table, cushions, even to the curtains. Be sure to choose a well covered though dainty design. Every one knows how ungainly a mattress is to handle. This difficulty can be overcome by sewing two loops on each side of the mattress to use as handles when turning or lifting it from one place to another. New Glass Rolling Pin. For some time the glass rolling pin which is filled with ice and which has wooden handles has been on the market, but the new glass rolling pin is made entirely of heavy crystal glass, handles and all. It has therefore no cracks or crevices to absorb either paste or water and by actual test was cleaned in five seconds. It is very light and so rolls easily, and if desired it can be placed in a refrigerator to have it extra cold before using. It has proved one of the most worth while of the season's household novelties and can be recommended to those housekeepers who are contemplating buying a new rolling pin. An Emergency Hint. To bake large potatoes quickly place in boiling water and boil until tender. then wipe dry and place in the oven until done. Usually about twenty minutes will provide them ready for the table. Bake very large potatoes until done but not very soft, the day before wanted. At breakfast peel, slice in even slices and fry to crisp brown sprinkling with salt or sugar, as preferred. How to Make a Valentine Told In Tuneful Rime. ```markdown ``` Get a white card and a pot of glue. From a candy box take the paper lace. Hunt tissue paper of pink or blue And paste all carefully into place. Cut out some doves from an old scrap book And other pictures of flowers or trees. (You'll find all these if you care to look, And any of them is sure to please.) Keep all these pretty things neat and clean, Trim all the edges around about. Rub off the finger marks in between And see that the flowers are peeping out. Print some words at the mouth of the dove— Such as "I'll be yours if you'll be mine!" Do all of this with a great deal of love And then you will make a valentine. Lincoln and the Boy. One morning two senators entered President Lincoln's private office. With them slipped in a lad who had been waiting a long time for admission to the presence of this great man. The president briefly greeted the two senators; then, turning to the boy, said kindly. "And who is this little boy?" The child answered: "My mother is poor, sir, and I'm looking for work. I thought you might let me be a page in the house." "Very good, son," answered the president, "but you'll have to see the doorkeeper of the house at the capitol." "But, sir," said the lad, "I am a good boy and have a letter from my mother and from my Sunday school superintendent and my teacher." The president took the lad's papers, ran his eye over them and then wrote upon the back of one of them: If Captain Goodnow can give a place to this good little boy I shall be gratified. A. LINCOLN. Do you think the boy got the job? Lincoln's Kind Heart The following story shows what a kind and noble man President Lincoln was: One cold winter day Lincoln met a poor man who had been hired to chop up an old hut into firewood. The poor fellow was barefoot, thinly clothed and shivering from the cold, and he was so weak that he could hardly raise the ax. Lincoln stopped the man in his work and said, "How much are you getting for this job?" "A dollar," said the woodchopper, "and with it I must buy myself a pair of shoes." "You go inside and warm yourself for a few minutes," said Lincoln as he took the ax from the woodchopper. Then he swung the ax mightily and soon had the old hut spilt up into kindlings. He had done it so quickly that the man could hardly believe his eyes. The poor woodchopper received his money and bought his shoes. St. Valentine's Day: One authority says that the custom of sending paper valentines is quite modern, dating back a little over 100 years. For centuries before that a valentine was not a dainty bit of colored or embossed paper. A valentine was a person. We see a relic of this meaning in the words still so often found on these dainty missives, such as "Be my valentine." From the early Roman down to quite modern times it was the custom of the maldens of a village or social circle on the 14th or 15th of February to write their names on bits of paper and drop them into a box; then the youths, blindfolded, would each draw a name from the box, and the one whose name a young man drew was bound to be his valentine for one year. It was a kind of mock engagement, which, it may be supposed, quite often ended in a real one, for the young man was bound by custom to be somewhat attentive to his valentine during the year.

Baked Striped Bass With Maitre d'Hôtel Sauce. Parisian Potatoes. Baked Salsify. Bavarian Cream. Coffee. SOME nice ways for cooking side dishes for the dinner table are the following: Baked Salisfy.—Scrape and wash and cut in small pieces sufficient salisfy and put it into a basin of cold water containing lemon juice or vinegar Drain and plunge into boiling with a little salt. Cook until tea. Make a white sauce. Put the drained salisfy and on a buttered dish, sprinkle breadcrumbs and small bits of Bake brown. A Welsh Dainty. Leek Souffles.—Take one ounce each of flour, butter and ham, one pint white stock, a gill of milk and cream, a small onion stuck with a clove, six peppercorns, three whites of eggs, one half pint well reduced leek purce, a pinch of paprika pepper and salt, souffle cases. Melt the butter, mix the flour with it and let it cook without coloring. Boil up the stock with the onion and peppercorns and let it reduce to half its original quantity, which would be a gill. Boil up milk and cream together, add to the roux and strain in the stock carefully; cut the ham into small pieces and add also. Stir the sauce well until it boils and let simmer until it is well reduced; rub through a fine sieve (take out the ham), add the leek purce, whisk the whites of eggs to a stiff froth and add to the mixture with the seasoning. When the former is sufficiently cool fill up three parts full some souffle cases and bake in a moderate oven. A Delicious Dish. Mashed Turnips an Gratin.—Two pounds young turnips, one gill-Bechamel sauce, one-half pint rich stock, salt, pepper and nutmeg, three ounces butter, one-quarter ounce flour, one medium sized onion and breadcrumbs. Wash, peel and slice the turnips, put them into cold water with a little salt. Peel and blanch the onion, chop it finely, then cook for ten minutes in an ounce of butter; add the turnips, previously drained. Stir the whole over a slow fire for about fifteen minutes. Melt an ounce of butter, add the flour and cook a little without browning, moisten the stock and let it boil up while stirring, cook for ten minutes. Now add the turnips to the thickened stock and let simmer for about half an hour. Pass all through a sieve, season to taste with a pinch of sugar, salt, pepper and nutmeg, arrange in a pile on a gratin dish, mask with white sauce, sprinkle with bread-crumbs and divide the remainder of the butter into little bits on the top. Bake and serve immediately. Annas Thompson. The KITCHEN CUPBOARD WHEN USING HALIBUT. HALIBUT is one of the most reliable fishes which the housewife finds in the market. It can be bought fresh at almost all seasons, is almost generally liked and makes a substantial dish at moderate cost. Some hints for using it are collected here. Fillet of Halibut.-Take sliced halibut and cut from the bone; roll each of the pieces into shape and fasten with wooden pick until cooked; brush each piece with lemon juice to which have been added salt, pepper and onion juice. Stew fifteen to twenty minutes and serve with hollandaise sauce. This Will Be Relished. Halibut With Oysters.—Take halibut steak, broil and sprinkle with lemon juice. Heat oysters in butter until they curl, season with salt and pepper and pour over the fish. Garnish with parsley or watercress. Stuffed Halibut Steak.—Take out the bone in each steak and fill the cavity with a breadcrumb stuffing, such as is used for chicken. Spread a layer of stuffing over the fish. Dot with bits of butter, season nicely and bake. Piquantly Flavored. Tomato Hallibut.—Take a one and one-half pound slice of hallibut and wipe with a piece of cheese cloth wrung out of cold water. Put in a dripping pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Take a half pint of tomato to pulp and pour over top of fish, then cut a green pepper with seeds removed over top of tomatoes. Bake in a hot oven half an hour, basting with one-third of a cupful of butter. Baked Halibut Steaks.—Trim hallibut steaks, lay them in a roasting pan and to each two pounds use a cupful of cream or milk, one teaspoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of butter, one teaspoonful of salt and saltspoonful of pepper. Add the seasoning and dot with butter, then pour over it the cream and bake fifteen minutes in a quick oven. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon. Annas Thompson . The one thing that came home to me with great force was that Germany is in no way loose joined or idle, but, on the contrary, strong, red blooded, avid, imaginative. Germany is a terrific nation, hopeful, courageous, enthusiastic, orderly, self disciplining, at present anyhow, and if it can keep its place without engaging in some vast, self destroying conflict, it can become internally so powerful that it will almost stand irresistible.—From Theodore Dreiser's "A Traveler at Forty." A Famous Old English Church. A Famous Old English Church. The Church of St. Botolph in Boston, England, is a long, low, decorated building, with a high perpendicular tower surmounted by an octagonal lantern, locally known as Boston Stump. The tower is 300 feet high. The light and spacious interior has very lofty arches resting on slender pillars. The church is said to have as many doors as days in the week, as many windows as weeks in the year, as many pillars as months in the year and as many steps up to its tower as days in the year.

A correspondent sends to the British Weekly a rare bit of English. It was written by a woman in excusing her tardiness in answering an inquiry that had been addressed to her: "I would have written before, but I have been sick with a dog lite on the arm. The man that, owns the sawmills' dog bit me in the road." The excuse was accepted as sufficient. Alabama's Iron Ores. The boom which followed the discovery of the extensive deposits of iron ore in the vicinity of Birmingham, Ala., in 1882, was without precedent in the industrial history of the United States, and the rush to Birmingham was paralleled only by the stampedes which followed such discoveries as the Comstock lode in Nevada and the Alaska gold fields. The iron ores of Alabama, while inferior in quality to those of Lake Superior, have the advantage of being near deposits of good coking coal and of the limestone requisite for fixing, so that Birmingham, the Pittsburgh of the south, can manufacture pig iron cheaper than any other district of the world.—Argonaut.

Martin's administration. The Sunday school music, under Miss Georgia Andrews, is improving. Our Sunday school has also installed a new piano and the children are highly pleased over it. Bro. Thomas Hamilton, the faithful superintendent, is putting forth great effort to build up the school. Under the new system our class meeting is improving weekly. The Sunday school is getting along pretty fair with its revised staff of workers. Master Earnest Johnson, the secretary, and Miss Henrietta Bacon, the treasurer, are doing their best in performing the duties of their offices. The librarian, Miss Margaret Davis, and her assistant, Miss G. R. Thomas, are delighted with the duties of their department. The Lincoln memorial services will be held on next Sunday morning. Services on last Sunday were held at three o'clock. The holy communion was administered by the pastor. The Independent Circle is planning to give an entertainment in the near future for the benefit of the church. The Liberty County Union will hold its next session here, at which time the anniversary of the church will take place. These meetings will be held during the last week in next month. Asbury M. E. Church On last Sunday a large membership was present at each service. The pastor, Rev. J. S. Stripling, preached two able sermons. At the evening service, the second communion service of the year was held. The friends and members present at this service were the recipients of an able sermon of admonition by the pastor on the subject "The Devil's three propositions to the Church," which related moral delinquencies, and inspired all to prevent further transgressions. The following services will be held to-morrow: preaching 11 a. m., Sunday School 3:30 p. m.; preaching 8 p. m. Strangers are invited to these services.

Living Pictures of Real Life Strange, indeed, is the word picture about the "Bowery derelict" who only escaped a pauper's grave when it was discovered he was worth $204,000; interesting is the story about the bugs that go into trances; wonderful is the latest cure for seasickness; remarkable are the facts about the ships that lie in New York's watery graveyard; funny is the latest experience of "Bill" the Office Boy—articles, every one of them and many more, to be featured in the twenty-four page magazine of next Sunday's New York World.
