The Evansville Guide says "Grand Master Houston, who is the ranking officer of the colored Odd Fellows of America, is proving himself to be one of the most efficient." CALLOWAY REMOVED. At a special adjourned meeting of the executive committee of the Negro Business League of the District of Columbia, held last Wednesday afternoon, to consider certain important measures looking to the advancement of the Negro Business League. Among the first things to be considered was the charges preferred against Thomas J. Calloway for violation of the rules of the organization. Mr. Calloway was summoned to appear before the committee to answer certain charges preferred, and after a full discussion by the committee and the statement of Mr. Calloway, the committee unanimously voted to remove him as corresponding secretary, and President Pittman was directed to appoint another corresponding secretary, subject to the approval of the League. Other recommendations were made and approved by the committee, to wit: The erection of a department store in this city. A tax was levied upon each member of the League for the entertainment of the visiting delegates to the national delegates who will visit the city in August. The entertainment committee was appointed, consisting of W. H. Davis, J. B. Anderson, and Dr. Charles H. Marshall. Chairman Pittman will appoint the committee on a national testimonial to Dr. Booker T. Washington next week. M. GOING TO THE BUSINESS LEAGUE.

Pratt is in charge of the arraignment and preparations are being made to entertain the delegates in magnificent style. The sessions will be held at the Fifth Regiment Armory, specially granted by the city authorities of Baltimore, and the Council has also tendered the use of a boat for a trip down the Bay and made an ample appropriation for the illumination of certain streets at night in honor of the League. The colored citizens have arranged a banquet of enormous proportions, and the meeting will assuredly compare favorably with any that yet been held. A big delegation will go up from Washington, headed by W. Sidney Pittman, president of the local League; J. A. Lankford, vice president of the National organization; Daniel Freeman, Dr. W. H. Davis, W. Calvin Chase, Thomas L. Jones, Dr. Amanda V. Gray, Dr. A. M. Curtis, A. H. Underdown, R. W. Thompson, Dr. L. H. Harris, J. W. Lewis, W. R. Griffin, Mrs. L. R.

Among the active workers in Chicago was Register W. T. Vernon. He made several trips to the extreme West in the interest of the nominee of the Republican party, and at Chicago he stuck close to the Kansas delegation and the strongKansas contingent. It is claimed that he made a great hit at Chicago and won many colored Republicans to the support of Mr. Taft. TAFT'S VOTE AT CHICAGO Editor Washington Bee: Dear Sir: Since the adjournment of the Republican National Convention I have listened to volumes of REGISTER W. T. VERNON, REG "hot air" concerning the necessity of seating the 219 contesting Taft delegates from the South. It was not necessary to admit 219 delegates from contested Southern districts to bring about the nomination of Secretary William H. Taft. He received a total vote at Chicago of 702. Deducting 219 from 702 leaves a remainder of 483. The Republican National Convention was composed of 980 delegates; therefore, 491 votes were necessary for a choice. As Taft had an assured vote of 483 he only required 8 votes from the contesting districts to capture the presidential nomination. Here is another phase of the outcome of the recent Republican National Convention. The labor leaders, under direction of Samuel Gompers, presented their grievances to the Republican convention, and since their demands were turned down they will go to the Democratic National Convention at Denver, Colo., July 7 to enforce their desires. If the Democratic Convention grants them greater privileges than the Republicans, Gomper will advise all labor men to support of the Democratic ticket. Now let Rev. J. Milton Waldron and his disgruntled brethren, who failed at Chicago, go to the Democratic Convention at Denver, July 7, and present their case. If the Democrats offer them more than the Republicans then will it be time to advise the Negro to vote a National Democratic ticket. Senator J. B. Foraker announced his intention of supporting Taft and Sherman, and so will the majority of the Negro vote of the country. The most brilliant wit that has been placed at the service of the public since Negro amusements began. Said Harry Harper, late of the Music Hall and Entr acte, now of the London Daily Mail. Besides being a clever artist, producer, professional motor driver, he is a philanthropist. As the last suit of clothes old ePter Jackson wore McClain put on his back, and was the first to put his money down for his-monument. He seconded Geo Dixon in his last fight at the National Sporting Club in London, against Owen Moran the clever English bantam; was behind Young Peter Jackson and Jack Johnson in their initial bow to a London audience, besides numerous others who have come to him for shelter and advice. Now he comes to the assistance of his old friend and associate, Ernest Hogan, and tells him that his money is at his disposal. Another generous deed McClain did that is worthy of mention: He buried a young man in Leeds, England, February, 1905, and when his mother sent the money for GISTER OF THE TREASURY. him to come home, the money arrived a day after he was buried, McClain returned the money along with the receipt, name of cemetery, number of grave, showing her that everything had been paid, and he would not accept a penny. We people in England appreciate such deeds of greatness. Long live McClain, Billy, as we call him! Hoping that all papers will copy and other will follow this man's deeds, I remain, WHAT WE SEE AND HEAR: Rev. Father James Joseph O'Connor has been appointed to St. Augustine as second assistant, vice Father Bischoff, assigned to Brightwood. Sam Einstein started last Monday his night patrolling for dogs. The probabilities are that he will meet with a grand success. The sun worshipers of Lowell, Mass., or Free Loves, had a grand to-do. Twelve of the finest ladies of the city, clad in transparent robes, went through the ceremonies, which were concluded by the kiss of peace. (Yum-yum.) Messrs. Bryan and Taft will sepak at Lincoln on consecutive days in September. Santo Domingo wants farmers to teach the island. Good pay behind. It seems like our friend Colonel Farson has received the effects of the big stock from his friends, the Commissioners: a reduction from $1,200 as chief贤itor to that of $600 as Annual report of Booker T. Washington's school shows 2,000 pupils, 38 States and Territories are represented, and a number of foreign places, including Japan, Jamaica and Porto Rico. The students paid in cash $25-000 and $150,000 in labor for tuition; 83 received diplomas and 87 trade certificates. Fireworks will be used at the opening of the new Municipal Building, July 24 at night. Sixty-three millionaires were at the Chicago Convention. Their total wealth footed up one hundred and eighty-nine million. Joe Gans has arrived at San Fran- cisco, Cal., getting ready for his next fight. The Philadelphia Giants, colored champions of the world, trimmed the Brentwoods at the National Park last Tuesday; 6 to 4. The organized militia of the United States will rank second to the regulars and the volunteers will come next. (New army plan of the United States.) Mrs. Lucy A. Clark, of Utah, was the first woman to vote in Convention at Chicago, Ill. She was the only lady delegate. Commander S. A. Smith, of Morell Post, G. A. R., of Ossining, N. Y., pulled down a Confederate flag overlapping the Union flag on the printing office of W. J. Physioc, son of a rebel. (Good boy.) White cannibals are said to be located in Northern Quebec, Canada. The crooks of the District of Columbia are working a new game by the fake telegraph racket and bogus inspections, special delivery, etc. The M. P.'s are on to the racket. There will be a complete change in the Council force of the United States July 1, 1908. Twenty-eight offices will be abolished. At a fire recently in New York the spectators appeared in scanty raiment enjoying the sights from the Hotel Albert. Fine sights. June 24 the Second Regiment, N. G. D. C., regimental drill in White lot from 6.30 to 7.30 p.m. June 26 the First Regiment will follow suit. June 29 the First Seppaarte Battalion, Major A. D. Banks, the same. PITTMAN THE FIRST. Mr. W. Sidney Pittman, the well-known architect, and an honor to the colored race, has been given a ninety-thousand-dollar school to erect in Garfield, D. C., by the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, on the recommendation of the Inspector of Buildings. This is the first honor that has ever been bestowed upon a colored architect by the local government. This school is to be erected in Garfield, District of Columbia. Mr. Pittman, it will be remembered, erected the Negro Building at the Jamestown Exposition, and so well pleased was the government with his work that it gave him a national reputation. This will be a twelve-room school for colored children. BRYAN AND THE NEGRO. From the Washington Post. Mr. Bryan talks tariff to the Negro; but what our colored fellow-citizens are more deeply interested in is the suppression of the Negro vote at the South, which Mr. Bryan has commended with the assertion that the white man has given the Negro a very good government at the South. Indeed, a Democrat is like Satan in a basin of holy water when he appeals to the Negro for political support. Alonzo Harris, colored, was given ten years for refusing to answer questions propounded by his Honor, Justice Stafford, of our city. Three hundred and fifty discharged from the Navy Yard July 1.

Fred, Douglass League COLORED MEN FROM ALL OVER the COUNTRY MEET AND ORGANIZE THE FREDERICK DOUGLASS NATIONAL REPUBLICAN LEAGUE OF THE UNITED STATES. On last Friday evening, June 19, in the city of Chicago, between seventy-five and one hundred colored men from various parts of the United States, met and organized the Frederick Douglass National Republican League of the United States. Subordinate Leagues will be organized in every city and village throughout the United States, the permanent headquarters being located in the city of Chicago. The following officers were elected: Walter M. Farmer, president, Chicago, Ill. C. G. Williams, first vice president, Booneville, Mo. Nick Chilis, second vice president, Topeka, Kan. T. W. Taylor, third vice president, Howell, Mich. W. O. Emery,fourth vice president, Macon, Ga. Charles Campbell, fifth vice president, Denver, Colo. A. J. Golde, sixth vice president, Cary, Miss. Moses H.

At the close of the meeting Lawyer John G. Jones offered a series of resolutions, which were adopted, pledging the support of the organization to the Republican nominees of the National Republican Convention for president and vice president of the United States. SECRETARY HURST TAKES HOLD. Dr. John F. Hurst, who has just assumed charge of the financial department of the A. M. E. Church, is no stranger to the "strong box" of this great organization, nor will he need to be introduced to the people of this community. For eight years he served as secretary of the financial board of the denomination, and was thus in a position to get closely in touch with the work of the department. His promotion to the office so ably conducted by Dr. Lampton was in accord with the logic of the situation, and no mistake was made in turning over the keys of the chest to his experienced hands. Miss E. D. Lampton, who served her father so capably as chief clerk, will remain with the new financial secretary. TO THE RESCUE Miss Wright the young colored woman who was a few months ago appointed to a position in the Supervising Architect's office, and whose appointment created so much talk and opposition because of her color, was to have been dropped from the Government service July 1. The office in which she was employed claimed that it had no more work for her. She was saved from being dropped from the service by Auditor Ralph W.Tyler, who requested that she be transferred to his office at seventy-five dollars per month. Seo <a eS ae 2, “é » = Fy SS EN Re Sa ee ee ea . a . : : . , @ ey : * ie ee * : FRUIT SALADS NOW Strawberry Makes Excellent Combina- tlon with Nearly Every Other . Frult‘on the List—Apple with Celery and Mayonnaise. ‘The strawberry brings to the mind of dainty cooks the delicious frult salads that they have loved long since and lost awhile in favor of vegetable and meat concoctions. ‘The English do not combine the frolt and vegetable salada es the French chefs do, aud the best Ameri- can cooks are tending to keep the fruit salad as a dainty dish by itself, which can almost take the place of foes or aweets on the spring and surh- mer lunch table. Strawberries are delicious in fruit salad, and strange aa it seems to meet this familiar frult on the table with- out the usual accompaniment of ‘ream and sugar, it is very popular in the new form and Is combined with nearly every other fruit in the list. A grapefruit Is especially good with strawberries. The core and fiber of the grapefruit Is removed after the fruit bag been halved, the pulp being Joosened from the sides {n the usual manner. The berries are then placed in the center and the whole 1s allowed Yo remain on ice until very cold. A French dressing !s added at the table. Apples combine with nearly every other fruit, but are best with celery and mayonnaise, this being one of the frst fruit salads to ‘win favor sev- eral séasons ago, and known as Wal- dort salad. A pretty way to serve {t Is to scoop out the inside of a red-cheeked apple ‘without Injuring the outside form of the fruit| Then replace the apple chopped with celery, the core parta be- ing entirely removed. When apple blossoms are procurable they form a dainty decoration for the open part of the apple. Cucumbers may be opened carefully and filled the same way, with a mix- ture of apple and chdpped nuts, the cucumber pulp belng used and the shell neatly reclosed so as to present the appearance of being untouched. The cucumbers should be packed in a bed of fresh cresses aad chopped ice, Fruft salads can be effectively served in glass punch cups, packed fn shaved ice In the high glasses some- times used for grapefrult. A gerant- um or mint leaf je rubbed on the glass by some cooks, and In fact, their fancy has free play in concocting these dainty dishes. * Calf’s Foot Jelly. To four calt's feet, carefully scraped and prepared, allow about two quarts of water and boll about seven hours, skimming well. When done, set aside to congeal, then remove all the grease. From the four feet there should be about three pints and a half of jelly. Pour on this one quart of sherry, the jutce of six lemons, a pound and a half of granulated sugar, the thinly-peeled yellow rind of two lemons, one bunch of raisins and two blades of mace. Wash elght eggs clean, beat the whites to a froth and crush the shells. Put with the Jelly. Set on fire, stir until the Jelly {x melt- ed, then remove the spoon. Let boll Just 20 minutes from the time it commences to boll. Pour into a coarse cotton bag and drain.

Mix seven ounces of fine winter flour, one ounce of cornstarch, three- quarters of a pound of powdered sugar and one heaping teaspoon of cream of tartar, together, and then sift them five times. Take 1% pint of the whites of eggs and beat them until stiff and smooth as possible, Your cake will be tough and leathery unless the whites are sufficiently firm to bear an egg, and the texture very firm and fine grained. Now stir In the sifted materials as lightly and quick- ly as possible, using for the purpose a wire spoon or egg beater. Bake in an ungreased Turk's head, or, better still,a Van Dusen cake mold, in a mod- erate oven for 35 or 40 minutes. When done, take it from the oven, turn the bottom up, allowing the pan to rest on the table to cool. When the cake {s cold pass a limber knife around the sides, shake lghtly and the cake will drop out. Ice it with vanilla, orange or almond soft icing. Sand Bag for 8Sickroom. One of the most convenient articles to be used in a sickroom fs a sand bag. Get some clean, fine sand; dry It thoroughly in a pan on the stove. Make a bag about eight inches square of flannel, fill It with dry sand,. sew the opening carefully together and tover the bag with cotton or linen. This will prevent the sand from allt- Ing out, and will also enable you to heat the bag quickly by placing it in the oven or even on the top of the stove. After once using this you will never attempt to warm the feet or hands of a sick person with a bottle of hot water or a brick. The sand holds the heat a long time; and the bag can be tucked up to the back with out hurting the Invalid, It is a good plan to make two or three of the bage and keep them on hand, ready for use at any time when needed. Siemaheers Serabandé, Whip a cupful thick cream until very stiff. then fold carefully into !t a pint fresh berries cut In small pieces with a silver knife.

When ready to serve turn out onto a pretty dessert platter, 9 - abe ar yy Art In Ice Cream Molds. It fs almost an art now to design molds for ice cream. Often the cus- tomers of the large shops .suggest what forms they wish the cream or {ce for a certain occasion to assume, and the caterer arranges to have the idea carried out. In this way many odd molds are acquired. Flower# and fruit are always a favorite. One may have roses to match the color scheme of the table decorations, There are also tiny automobiles, “Teddy beara” and dolls, ‘Bennth Citelte bate. To dress the hair-of the baby girl who {x not bleseed with curly locks, take acplece of ribbon just long enough to reach across top of head from ear to ear, fasten to each end a bow or ro- sette and a narrow elastic to ft snug- ly around the head beneath the halr. Brush the hair back or part in mid- dle or on side. Place the ribbon on the head, a rosette above each ear. ‘This will keep the hair in place and be becoming. Counterpanes for Metal Beds. Dainty counterranes may be made with Nttle labcr and small expense by buying a pair of lace or muslin eur tains. Fasten tte sides of the cur- tain which are net ruffied with inser- tion as wide se vou desire. The ruf fled ends will full over the sides and end of the bed w.th a charming effect.

When the house cleaning season comes it has always been customary to start from the top of the house and work down until the cellar !s reached, but there fs a “show” housewife who does not carry out this plan. She first cleans the top room wf the house, then the cellar, finishing with the first floor. 7 Her reason for doing {pls is be cause in cleaning the cellar, the dirt from the coal, ete. works its way up through the registers to the floor above, and when the first floor 1s cleaned before the cellar; she is com pelled to go over it again, owing to the dust that settles on carpets and fur niture. ‘This is pjausible and sounde Mke good reasoning. Test for Butter, . To find out whether butter is pure, What To Eat gives the following method: Place a small plece in a large {ron spoon and heat gently over a flame. If the butter foame freely on heating, it is butter, while if it sput- ters and crackles like hot grease with- out foaming, it Is oleomargarine or repovated butter. Another‘ way to ex- amine sample {s to put it in a small bottle, and then place the bottle in boiling water for five or six minutes. If the sample fs butter the,curd will have settled, leaving the fat perfectly clear, while Sf it ts a substitute the fat is cloudy or milky.

Chairs that can be sat upon are a more necessary essential than some housewives think, In the living room there must be a softly shaded light placed low for read- ing and sewing. Readable books and magazines lying around loose are one of the Important things. A carpet that can be walked on by the family {s much better than one preserved for the sacred feet of stran- gers, . Sulted “suits” of furniture are a good thing to avoid; also loud papers and highly colored pictures. As to tobacco smoke and dust—well, there have been homes with them and .places without them that utterly failed to be homes. ‘ Cheerfulness and love and mutual eccommodation as to tastes ko further to make a real home than over-zealous spotlessness and everlasting over sight. Pan Rtew. Take pleces of cold beefsteak, cut in small pieces, place in a frying pan until the bottom of the.pan is cov. ered. Dredge with flour, a little salt and, pepper, dnd one onlon chopped fine. Then slice cold potatoes and lay in layers on the meat; cut “up a few tomatoes and place on top of the po tatoes; season all with salt and pep per. Cover all with water, put the cover on and cook 20 minutes. Boi ‘potatoes with the skins on the day before using. When the meat I: boiled save some of the stock and put in when the meat and potatoes are mixed, . Corn Starch Blane Mance. Stir into one quart boiling milk or fruit Juice of any sort (that from stewed raspberries or cherries being best) four rounding tablespoonfuls corn starch dissolved In a little of the cold milk or fruit julce. Stir until smooth and thickened, sweeten and flavor to taste, then cook in double voller for an/hour. Pour into small molds wet with cold water and set away to cool. When ready to serve turn out on individual dishes and ‘serve cold with cream and sugar. A pretty addition to the service of this pudding is to encircle each mold ag turned out on a glass gr china dish with a row of strawberries, raspber- ries, sliced bananas or peaches. This makes an extrethely decorative and inexpensive dessert. Te Prepare Duck. ‘ To dress a duck so that it will not be an all.day task, a8 soon as killed and while it fs still warm, pick off the fine feathers, providing you want to save them for pillows. Then pour scalding water over it and wrap it promptly in a plece of old blanket-or flannel and allow !t to steam in this for fully ten minutes. Unwrap and pull off the coarse feathers, and with a coarse cloth (a piece of burlap Is pest) rub the small feathers and “down” off {t with almost no trouble. Egg Oreesing. .

The tender leaves of young beet tops or turnips may be used Instead of spinach and make a pleasant change for the lover of greens. ‘Thoroughly wash leaves to remove grit and boll until tender. Drain, press out the water and dress with butter, salt and pepper, stirring in a saucepan until. thoroughly heated. The favor !s much improved if a ttle vinegar and oll are added on the table. This is better than serving it with the greens as many persons pre- fer the butter dressing. Porch Chair. Mend your pore cbairs with picture wire. Jt is easy to work with and strong.

Had the International boundary line been moved five miles to the east- ward, as it passes among the islands that form the arch{palego lying be- tween Vancouver island and the maln- land, this statue of Washington would have been on Rritish soll, But ovi- dently nature had the boundary dis- pute between Great Britain and Amer!- ca settled long before the question nearly involved the two nations {n war half a century ago. Washington rock Hes at the water's edge on Wal- dron island, the mast northwesterly of the San Juan group of {islands to the northward of Puget sound. British forces trled to hold all these felands, but they were routed by the Américan troops. Crumbling forts and anctent blockhouses to-day remain to remind the people of the struggles of early days that now have been almost forgotten. Not far from Waldron {sland Nature has become a shipbuilder and hes raised an {sland out of the water that Tooks so like a modern battle shtp, even to the fighting tops, ‘that passing vessels, not knowing It to be of earth and rock, have been known to salute with thelr whistles what they sup- posed was a majestic representative of the American navy Battleship toland, or as ft is sometimes called, More's stand, {8 located at the entrance of the Strait de Hara, the main channel between Vancouver island and the San Juan group. The tides have porformed another queer feat In converting an {mmense boulden on the beach of Sucla island Into the Ilkeness of a Chinese, with a grass hat lke an immense’ rice bow! over bis head. The size of “The Chink,” as the rock fs called, may be Teallzed by comparing it with the sheep that stand beside tt, and which look little larger than rats, The island in front of the little summer resort on East sound looks as 4€ it might have been brought across the Pacific from a Japanese lake. Its stunted trees are oriental, its bulld: ings look lge pagodas, and It seems to rest In a'summer sea for all the world lke the flowery kingdom, Between the sland and the beach {s the favo. rite resort of bathers, ‘These Islands of San Juan are be coming known far and wide for thelt beauty, and each year more and more people visit thelr summer resorts of tun thelr yachts Into the sheltere¢ harbors and covers that are almos! as numerous as-the pebbles upon the beach. Many strange characters o days gone by still remain upon the Islands and tell of the troublous t!mes of the Iong ago. Public Menaces to Morality. Perhaps it is a waste of words to moralize over social scandals, but each new domestic upheaval in what Is called our best soclety (meaning our wealthiest) exerts an evil influence so far beyond Its source that the impulse to plead for a higher standard of morals among the richest people: {s hard to resist. It must be admitted that Ilttle good has resulted from the most earnest remonstrance In the past. ‘The young lions In society, in many {nstances, continue to conduct them: selves as If they were unconscious of any public duty incumbent upon thein, as If they were unaware that the po- sition they hold, by the grace of the community, carries an Influence which, if exerted for evil, menaces the very existence of the social order.

Oo Mermaid ede PROPER FOR WALLS USE CARE IN SELECTION OF THE PAPER, Bize of Rooms to Be Decorated I¢ One of the Most Important of Conaid- eratlons — Background for ‘Distuses, Great care should be taken in choosing wall paper. Adarge room needs a larger design than a small one, and the latter may frequently be made to look large simply by the choice of paper. Color, foo, 1s Important. It is hardly wise to purchase paper in the shop; but amples should be placed on the walls In the room where they are to be used, with every effect of light. Green, dark red, and rich brown are safe colors to choose. The library de- mands something quiet and restful, and the same {s true of a sitting: room or a bedroom in constant «use. If the room to be papered has many plc tures, the wall paper must be such, a ‘to form a good background. Plain or twotoned papers are excellent for such rooms. For rooms like the nurs- ery, one can buy specially designed pa- pers, auch as Dutch and Kate Green- way figures, Noah's ark, rollicking children, etc. For bedroom, trellis and flower designs are charming, ‘American wall papers are, often more realistic than those of forelga manufacture, and the best designs or Sginate in our art schools. Papers are of two sorts, the machine and the hand-printed. The former are stamped with the design by direct printing’on the paper as it rolls out from the ma- chine, The hand-printed designs are applied by blocks, hand-mantpulated, and some of the best designs are for the first season printed in this way, and a year or two later brought out by the machine process. Flock pa- pers are those in which a velvety ef- fect is produced by using powdered wool or silk. If plaster walls have be- come cracked, It is a good plin to cover them with something stronger than ordinary paper, and various kinds ‘of burlap can be chosen for this pur- pose. Tn the old-fashloned days, wall pa- per came in rolls 20 inches wlde, 1n- stead of 18 inches, as at present. Borders were not made to match the designs in the wall paper, so the cus- tomer selected the decoration he want ed for bis wall, and then took the border that looked best with It. * Bor. ders with glit background were in general favor. English wall paper came {n rolls of 18 yards; then the length of a roll was reduced to sixteen, until now some do not contain more than 13 yards. It is sald that an early manufacturor of wall papef paid bis color mixer $60,000 a year, and an as sistant $15,000, When wall paper was made by hand, the borders sold aa high as $3.50 a single roll, or $7 a dow I ble roll. - Oll Stains. It fs very aggravating to find that a good blouse .is ruined—or seems to be—with drops of oll from‘ the sewing machine. You were stitching along so atead- fly thet you did not notice you bad put on just one drop ‘of oll too many, and that {t was leaving a trall slong the new material. At first you will be discouraged, but remember, the oll can speodily be taken out an the material left as good as new. Cover the stain thickly with lard; let It stand long enough to absorb all the grease; then wash out in cold wa: ‘ter with soap. To Apply Heat. In cases of sickness, where applica tions of moist heat are needed, try this: Take two bath towels, or pleces of flannel, dip in warm water, wring out, fold to required size, lay on top of radiator, turn on steam, and they will heat much faster than you can use them, This ts much botter than s steamer and no gas burned. Fine for travelers or roomers, ‘Taking Grease from Silk. To remove grease from silk spread the goods over blotting paper and ley French chalk or fuller’s earth around the spot to keep grease from spread- fng. then rub gently wth a soft cloth dipped in ether or chloroform. Rub the spot with a clean cloth, and If the ring around the spot rematne, sponge with chloroform. To Clean Knives. Get a large cork from an empty bot- tle and moisten some powdered bathbrick with a Ilttle water. Dip the cork in the bathbrick and then rub it up and down the knife. Finally rub with a little dry bathbrick, and the re sult will be a brilliant polish with hardly any trouble. . Left Over Meat.

To the to- matoes add one slice onton, a pinch of celery seed and cook ten minutes. Strain and cook with two tablespoons butter and three of flour, Dip the tongue in egg and then In bread crumbs and brown a few miautes In Ittle butter. Place in a chop dish and pour the tomato sauce over it, adding salt and pepper. The tongue can be bought at short notice-at a delicates: sen shop, and there should always be cans of tomatoes on hand for an emergency. ‘ Holland Pea Soup. ‘Use two pork hocks or four pounds shoulder, one quart dried green peas, one| large onton, one large potato, half celery root or one stalk English celery, a little parsley, soak the peas over night. Put on to boll in the same water with the meat for about two hours, then add the other vegetables except the parsley; salt and pepper according to taste, and just before serving the chopped parley Is added as a garnish. . . Scrape Bananas. If those who find the banana indt- gestible; would, after removing skins, scrape fightly with a knife to remove ape Ui pulp (which ts indigestible) they would have no more trouble In that way.

Dubois and Trotter may beat their tom-toms, and gesticulate as much as they desire, and even split the air with their denunciations, but the fact remains that Negro Republicans cannot and will not be led by Negro Democrats. We do not deny that there has been and is some disaffection in the ranks of the Negroes, the same as there is some disaffection in other ranks, but it is not an impassable chasm. The Negro voter of today is open to reason. He does not let his passions run away with his judgment. He knows that between two evils it is always best to chose the lesser, and that being true as between the Republican party and the Democratic party there is but one choice — the former. If Senator Foraker, who tried, though in vain, to impede Secretary Taft's advance and threw every possible obstacle in his path, and resorted to every possible political move to accomplish the Secretary's defeat, can bow to the inevitable and publicly proclaim that Secretary Taft is now his candidate, then surely those hired allies — those hired Negro allies — of his, who were paid every time they opened their mouth, and for every trip they made, can afford to accept Mr. Taft. It is now no longer a contest within the Republican ranks; it is a contest between two parties, one of which is suggestive of everything antagonistic to the Negro (the Democratic party), and one that has given to the Negro all the political rights that the Negro justly deserved and was entitled to. Let's reason together. Let's be together. If some men would try to disabuse their minds of the hallucination that they are as big and as potential a factor as Dr. Booker T. Washington they could accomplish more for their people and for themselves. Dr. Washington's place is fixed. Some day he may be equaled, but let it be said that no Negro equals him now, and no Negro can equal or surpass him who holds office. There are but a few Negroes — very few — who even nurse the delusion that they can fill the Doctor's shoes. Dr. Washington has a past that is as clean as his present. The tongue of the scandalmonger has not even dared to use his name, much less fasten guilt upon him. He stands out remarkable not alone for his wonderful achievements, but for his purity. Never yet have his garments touched filth. Never yet has filth touched his garments. Men with a doubtful past who aspire to eclipse him should first look into their lives and ask themselves the question. Is there anything in my life to plague me? There is one thing that Dr. Wasihngton has taught the Negro youth, and the white youth as well, of this land, and that is purity of life, absolute purity, is the natural companion of greatness. NEGRO LEADERSHIP. Nick Childs, the genial and husting editor and proprietor of the Topeka (Kans.) Plaindealer, last week said: "What the colored people should $ \alpha $ is recognize Booker T. Washington, Bishop Abram Grant and W. T. Vernon as their leaders,and hold them in strict account for good and bad legislation." Now, we would remind Brother Childs that leaders are born, not made. Washington is the acknowledged leader of his race. Bishop Grant is an acknowledged ecclesiastical leader, and both of these men made themselves what they are. With all due respect to Mr. Vernon, The Bee is forced to say that the seeking of an appointive office and the holding of that office for two years is not in itself sufficient to establish any man's leadership on a plane equal to that occupied by Dr. Washington and Bishop Grant. Mr. Vernon may be a leader out in Kansas, and we doubt not he is; but he is not in a class with Dr. Washington and Bishop Grant. Leadership is not propagated in a political hothouse. Leadership is propagated only in the broad field of absolutely unselfish labor for the whole people. MR. BRYAN. What has Mr. Bryan ever offered the colored Aemricans? In his declining years he in speech upheld the disfranchisement of colored Americans. The advice of The Bee the colored man had better remain with the devil, he knows than to go to the devil he knows not. The Democratic platform may declare certain things. It may declare in favor of restoring political rights of colored Americans, but will such rot convince the colored man that the party is sincere? Will the former and present act of the party warrant colored Americans to support it? There is danger ahead for colored Americans. While it may be true the Republican party hasn't done everything for the colored Americans, it was through that party colred Americans are breathing the air of freedom today, no matter what oppression they are feeling, they know and feel that they know but one flag, and that they fought to uphold that flag. The Bee is pleased to know that the National Committee on the testimonial to Dr. Booker T. Washington will soon be appointed. If there is one man in this country who is entitled to be honored, it is Dr. Washington. In politics the colored American is a failure, but in business and all professions he is a success, and to Dr. Washington colored Americans are indebted for the new departure. Attorney R. R. Horner kept faith with his people and those who sent him to the National Convention. Mr. Horner's refusal to vote to cut down Southern representation deserves the commendation of colored Americans. EDITORIAL NOTES. The festive campaign sheet will now have its innings. There were brains galore at the teachers' banquet to Assistant Superintendent Roscoe Conkling Bruce. And J. Milton Turner, H. C. C. Astwood and Archibald H. Grimke are still numbered with the lost tribes of Israel. The Rev. J. Milton Waldron narrowly escaped being a big man at Chicago. If his scheme had only worked he would have been "It." Thus fan the late Washington The Negro "steering committee" named at Chicago, with Ralph W. Tyler as chairman, is keeping its hand absolutely clear of the squabble over the headship of the national committee. Several promotions of colored men took place this week in the office of the Auditor for the Navy Department. Like a well-advertised specific, Ralph W. Tyler "works while you sleep." Some of our good friends who have been "original Taft men" for at least five days evince a disposition to crowd to the front seats on the band wagon and jostle the old stagers. The Patrician once said to his oppressor these lines:: "These watchful eyes shall not have need full rest until death has closed them in a glorious grave or fortune given me measure of revenge." The Bee noes with genuine pleasure that Dr.Boker T. Washington so conducted himself at Louisville as to win the unqualified approval of Sister Julia Sohmers Young, the gifted quill-driver of the Kentucky Standard. It is the coward who strikes the young and the innocent. The manly man or womanly woman will boldly defend the weak. Power in the hands of cowards results sooner or later in their downfall. It is the cowards who strikes while you sleep. Wait until he awakes and then see what the brave man will do. This will not be a good year for "grafters." The wise guys are to be at the helm, and they know the "smooth fellows" like a book. Get ready to go to Baltimore in August. The National Negro Business League meets on the 19th, 20th and 21st. It is an education and an inspiration to listen to the men who have made their mark Hampton, Va., June 3. At five o'clock this afternoon Mr. A. G. C. Randall, secretary of the Colored Y. M. C. A., Columbus, Ga., and Miss Ada V. Bradley, kindergartner at the Hampton Institute, were united in marriage in the beautiful Memorial Church on the Hampton Institute grounds. By her services the bride has won for herself, an enviable position in the community. And her friends spared no pains to make her wedding a beautiful and joyous occasion. The church was richly decorated with potted plants and flower, and was filled with the many friends and acquaintances of the bride. At the appointed hour the bridal party began to enter the church. First came four ushers in conventional costume. They were followed by six little children, three boys and three girls, from the kindergarten class. The little girls wore dainty white frocks of Japanese silk and white kid shoes. The boys were dressed in white sailor suits. All carried great bouquets of daisies. Next came the bridesmaid, Miss Mattie Holmes, an associate teacher of the bride! Always dainty and sweet, Miss Holmes on this occasion was more beautiful even than usual. She wore a white gown of Japanese silk, a Paris model of princess style, elabortely trimmed with Valenciennes lace, and carried carnations. She was followed by the bride, on the arm of Mr. George Davis, one of the oldest and most highly repected of the employees of the Institute. She wore a veil and a remarkably pretty gown of eolienne over white taffeta, cut princess with train. She carried a shower bouquet of Bride roses and lilies-of-the-valley. She entered the church to the strains of the "Lohengrin" wedding march, sung by the Treble Clef Club of ladies, assisted by gentlemen on this occasion. The singers were fairly hidden behind the banks of shrubbery used as decorations. The groom, with his best man, his brother, Mr. Philip Randall, met the bride at the altar. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. A. Graham, of the Zion Baptist Church. From the church the bridal party and friends went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Davis, where delicacies were served, and good wishes and congratulations showered upon the contracting parties. A host of friends accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Randall to Old Point Comfort, where they took steamer for Washington. Mrs. Randall wore an exceptionally becoming traveling suit of Copenhagen-blue rajah silk with hat to match. The many friends of the couple tried to show something of their regard for them by the presents they gave, which were beautiful, numerous and valuable. Among them were fine linens, laces, pictures, cut glass, and beautiful china and silverware. The wedding was the culmination of a week of social events in honor of the bride. Last Wednesday evening Mrs. W. T. B. Williams gave her a "shower party," when her many friends presented her with many useful articles for her home. Later in the week Mrs. Nannie S. McGwynn gave a tea party for her and her fellow teachers at the Whittier School. On Saturday Mrs. W. H. Daggs held a reception in her honor. And at the home of Mr. F. D. Wheelock, the well-known mail carrier, the Sumner Literary Club entertained on Monday for Miss Bradley and three other bride-elect members of the club. On this occasion Miss Bradley wore a handsome gray. crepe de chine dress trimmed with lace. Mr. and Mrs. Randall will make their home at Columbus, Ga., where Mr. Randall, as secretary of the Y. M. C. A., has the distinction of directing the work in the finest building owned by any of the colored Y. M. C. A. organizations. The building represents a gift of $30,000. Mrs. Randall has so thoroughly identified herself with this community and has so completely won the hearts of nearly every family through her kindergarten work, that her leaving will be the occasion of no little regret. Most of the people here, too, haev all but forgotten that Miss Bradley came to Hampton as a student from the very city to which she now returns as a bride. After completing her course here she took kindergarten training at Rochester, N Since then she has had charge one kindergarten work at Hampton Institute in the Whittier Primary School. In this work she has been regarded as exceptionally capable and successful. If the mothers of the community had had their say it is doubtful if Miss Bradley would have been alloked to leave. And Hampton Institute will certainly not find it easy to fill her place. ELEVEN LYNCHED THREE WHITES SLAIN IN A TEXAS RACE WAR. Troops Are Called Out. Trouble Started by Slaying of White Hemphill, Texas, June 22.—Eleven Negroes have been lynched and three white men killed in a race war in Sabine county, the State Rangers ordered out to restore peace, armed bands of whites and blacks are facing each other in several places, and several encounters have been reported tonight. A mob stormed the jail here last night, seized six Negroes accused of the murder of a white farmer, hanged five to one limb and shot the sixth when the noose broke and he was running away. The bodies of three other Negroes were found riddled with bullets this morning. Two others were shot to death last night. Another, arrested with a white man whom he accused of hiring him to slay Robert Wright, is in jail at Center, having been rushed there under extra guard to save them from the mob. It is reported tonight that the mob has captured a train and is forcing the engineer to run to Center so the prisoners can be captured and lynched. Rangers Pushed Aside. State Rangers Lattie and Hamer, stationed at Center, wont to Hemphill when the first news of the trouble reached them. They attempted to take a hand. The county officers found aside. The county officers found themselves similarly served when they tried to uphold the law and, unable to dominate the situation, they wired for reinforcements. The sheriff at Hemphill made an effort to swear in special officers, but none would serve. The few he sought to swear in fled at his approach, fearing that they would be cheated of their revenge. The frenzied hatred against the Negroes came as the result of the shooting of a white man by Negroes a week ago. At a Negro dance on June 13 William Stimson, a white man, became involved in a row with the Negroes and was killed with a razor. Two Negroes were arrested for the crime. Last Saturday night Hugh Dean, one of the best-known white farmers, was also killed at a Negro'dance. It was proved that he was merely riding by when drunken Negroes set upon him and stabbed him to death. Six Negroes were arrested and imprisoned in the Hemphill jail. A seventh is still at large and a reward of $550 is out for him. Negroes and Whites Arm. The passion stirred up by the killing of Stimson and Dean within a week was increased by the fact that Negroes grew bold and began to flourish weapons. Six-shooters were prominent and open threats made of what would be done in the event that the white men showed any open animosity toward the Negro. The farmers of the vicinity armed themselves with rifles and shotguns and pistols and started on a systematic hunt after every Negro of known bad tendencies. The county peace officers found they were powerless to cope with the situation. Hurried appeals were made to the Governor, and a squad of Rangers was ordered immediately to the scene. The Houston Light Guards of Houston were intructed to hold themselves in readiness to take a special train and will leave tonight. This was the situation when the news went broadcast that Aaron Johnson, another white farmer, had been shot down while sitting on his gallery with his wife and boy and baby. His wife, crazed at the desperate act of the Negroes, gave chase, screaming with all her might. White men, raiding the countryside for Negroes, heard her. When they reached her she was sitting beside the body of her husband, insane. It was then that the white avengers went forth, and soon the crack of their pistols portended that death had been visited on someone. Later the bodies of three Negroes — Singleton, Evans and Thomas — were found. Already charged with having a hand in the death of Dean, the three Negroes had met, swearing vengeance when they encountered the white men. Johnson's death increased the tensity of the situation. The three dead Negroes were known to be partners of a fourth. The latter, Perry Price, would surely have met the same fate of his fellows had not officers captured and spirited him to San Augustine after making a confession that he had been given five dollars by Robert Wright, Johnson's brother-in-law, to kill Johnson. Wright was then arrested and is now in jail at Center, Tex. The jail is guarded heavily, as the rumor has gone abroad that a mob of white men has captured a Houston east and west train and is forcing the engineer to run to center in order that they may take Wright and Price and hang them. Break Into Jail. Last night the white men marched to the Hemphill jail. "We want those Negroes," said the spokesman. ```markdown ``` "Well, by G—, we will take them was the answer. With a savage cry the mob attacked the doors. Other guards rushed out, but were overpowered after making futile resistance. Into the jail the mob broke, and, rushing to the cell in which the six Negroes were confined, they smashed the door and seized the blacks. One hundred yards from the jail grows a clump of huge live-oaks. As they reached these the leader spoke again. Seven minutes were allowed, and seven ropes descended over the Negroes' heads, one after another. One broke and ran. Immediately a fusillade of lead followed him, and he dropped in his tracks. Meantime the noose had been placed on the heads of the others and Judge Lynch was satisfied. CITY BRIEFS. Mr. J. T. Rhines, of the southwest, undertaker, was called to his home, in Nashville, Tenn., on account of the serious illness of hic mother. Mr. Willis M.

Small Wine Glasses of the Preparations Are Handy. When the jelly season comes—and it will soon be here—make many small wine glasses of jelly. These glasses can be bought for five cents a piece and the small glass of jelly is very useful. One may want to take a glass for individual purposes with a luncheon while travelling, a glass can be put into the luncheon basket for the schoolgirl or boy and a dalnty wineglass of jelly is always acceptable to the invalid. One of the most appetizing jellies is grape, though currant is well liked for its mild acid flavor and berry jellies are delicious. There is a fruit preserve, very delicious, for filling these tiny glasses, too. It is made by making a thick candy and when it is of the same consistency that one makes candy fondant, drop the berries in it, leave for a few minutes, but not long enough to separate the berries, then hastily fill the glasses and cover with paraffin. Do not attempt to make more than a quart at a time, for the work must be watched and carefully done. Red velvet berries will preserve whole in this manner and will not lose shape. AGAIN THE YORKSHIRE PUDDING. Directions for Its Preparation In Still Another Way. Yorkshire pudding is a hallowed dish in many English families. It is often an accompaniment of roast beef, and in response to a request for a recipe the following is reported from a century-old note left by a cook: Take six tablespoonfuls of flour, with three eggs, a teaspoonful of salt and a pint of milk, so as to make a middling stiff batter, a little stiffer than you would for pancakes; beat it up well and take care it is not lumpy; put a dish under the meat and let the drippings drop into it till it is quite hot and well greased; then pour in the batter. When the upper surface is brown and set, turn it, that both sides may be brown alike. If you wish it to cut firm, and the pudding an inch thick, it will take two hours at a good fire. The true Yorkshire pudding is about half an inch thick when done, but it is the fashion in London to make them full twice that thickness. Caramel Custard. Put one-half cupful of sugar in a smooth frying pan and stir until it melts and becomes a rich cinnamon color. Pour it into a pint of rich milk or thin cream that has been scalded, add a teaspoonful of vanilla, a salt-spoonful of salt and a half cup of sugar and let it simmer until the col- Cantabile. Maestoso. 2d time D. C. al Fine. rit. D.S. sugar is usurped. Set away to cool. When cold add the beaten yolks of eight eggs, strain to be sure it is smooth; pour into baking cups and set in a pan of hot water and, bake until firm. Serve cold. This will make eight cups. Or make a plain custard, using less sugar than usual; then stir in two or three tablespoonfuls of caramel made in this way: Put two cups of granulated sugar in a clean saucepan, set on the back of the range and stir until it browns. Pour into it slowly one cup of boiling water, and when dissolved put into a can for future use. It keeps indefinitely. It is nice served as a sauce with the custard or with apple dumplings. Venice Pudding. Five ounces of stale bread cut into small pieces, three ounces of lemon peel, three ounces of sugar, three ounces ralsins. Pour a little orange juice over this and stew awhile. Put a little butter into a pan with a little milk, three or four lumps of sugar Stir until turned a light brown. Take four eggs and heat, then make a custard with these, and the buttered milk, also the remalnder of a pint of milk; mix these well with all the others, put into a buttered mould, and stand in a saucepan of boiling water. Boll for three or four hours until firm in the center. Turn out and serve with a good sauce. Orange Cake. This is a good orange cake: One cup sugar, two tablespoons melted butter, two eggs, one teaspoon soda, two teaspoons cream tartar, two-thirds cup milk, two cups flour, juice and rind of one orange; bake in square pans; when done sandwich together with white of another egg, one cup powdered sugar, and rind of one orange and frost with the yolk of the egg and five heaping tablespoons powdered sugar and orange juice stirred together; frost cake while hot. Apple Popovers. One cupful of flour, one-fourth level teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of milk, one egg well beaten, one-half teaspoonful of melted butter, apple sauce. Stir together the flour and salt and add the milk, egg and butter. Beat for two minutes with an egg beater. Pour into hissing hot buttered iron gem pans and bake for 35 minutes in a hot oven. When done make a small opening in the top of each and fill with apple sauce, which has been sifted. Serve with lemon sauce. Lemon Jelly. Two lemons, two eggs beaten separately, one and one-half cups sugar, two teaspoonfuls of flour; boll, taking care not to burn it; best way is to boil in double boiler. Serve cold with cake.

Black lace should not be washed unless it is decidedly dirty, but should be well shaken to remove as much dust as is possible and then dipped in a solution of deep blue gum water. When the lace has become dirty and brownish in color, the best plan is to wash it in soap suds and then rinse and stiffen it in deep blue water, to which the gum water has been added. The deep blue water will help to restore the lace to its original black. The lace should be all rolled in an old cloth for a short time and then plinned out with the cloth between it and the sheet, as it imparts a blue stain, which it would be necessary to remove from the sheet. When the lace is quite dry remove the pins and place a piece of tissue paper over it. Iron it with the paper between it and the iron. If the iron is placed directly on the lace it will leave a gloss on it which is not pretty and which stamps it as "washed lace." A good method for washing lace is to dip it in a solution made of equal parts of milk and water. After squeezing out the lace should be rolled in a cloth for a few minutes and then straightened and placed between folds of tissue paper and ironed until dry. The above solution makes the lace stiff, therefore if it requires but a slight stiffening increase the amount of water and decrease the amount of milk. FOR BREAKFAST OR LUNCH. Poached Eggs, with Mushroom Sauce Make a Good Dish. Poached eggs with mushroom sauce makes a delicious dish for breakfast or lunch. Chop finely a half pound of mushrooms. Add them with the juice of half a lemon, salt and cayenne pepper to an once of melted butter and stir over a slow fire for five minutes. Soak the crumb from a French roll in milk and add it to the mushroom mixture; then stir in a quarter of a cup of milk and boll, stirring all the time for ten minutes. Rub the mixture through a fine sleeve; return it to the pan and make very hot. Scald a half pint or more of milk, according to the number of eggs. Flavor with a piece of onion, which is removed later. Poach the desired number of eggs in the milk. Place the hot sauce on the bottom of flat pudding dish. arrange the eggs on top of it and garnish with fried squares of bread. Economy Eggs. The foundation for this dish is cold boiled potatoes. Select large potatoes and cut thick slices lengthwise, so you have the largest oval possible. Have ready some boiling hot lard or clarified fat. Drop into this the potato ovals and cook until golden brown. Drain thoroughly. Arrange on a hot platter with a rasher or two of bacon cut thin and cooked very crisp on each slice of potato. Then poach an egg for each person and lay this on a slice of potato with the rasher of bacon in between. A sprig of parsley on one side, and you have a very tasty service. Be sure your poached eggs are drained very dry, as the rasher of bacon and potato should be very crisp. Chocolate Eclairs. Welgh four eggs in the shells, take their weight of sugar, half their weight of flour and three-fourths teaspoon baking powder. Sift flour and baking powder well together, beat sugar and egg yolks thoroughly, beat whites stiff. Alternately beat these and the flour into the sugar and eggs, flavor with vanilla. Make little canoes out of stiff white paper and stick together along the sides. Grease and drop a spoonful of the mixture into each, bake in a rather hot oven. Frost with this frosting: Three squares melted chocolate, beat egg whites stiff, add eight tablespoons confectioners' sugar, then the chocolate. Flavor if desired. Patty Cases. Make out a light puff paste, roll it about quarter of an inch thick and cut from it with a sharp biscuit cutter dipper in flour, rounds of pastry. If you wish six pattles, cut 18 rounds.

By This Device Three Dishes May Be Prepared at Once In the Same Frying Pan — Welcome The New Frying Pan.—For the woman who cooks for two a great convenience will be found in the new frying pan, in which it is possible to prepare more than one dish at a time, thus saving fuel, utensils and trouble. A picture in a recent magazine shows a simple frying pan, with ordinary handle and different only in having a partition in the center bent in the shape of a broad V. Another straight piece goes from the point of the V to the other side of the pan. This makes three compartments, and permits the cooking of three dishes at once. For the bachelor girl in cramped quarters who gets her own breakfast, any device is a help. Often her room or studio is equipped with only one gas burner, and it must be made to do as much service as possible in a limited time. Among the girls at the Art Institute there are many who cook their own meals with slim paraphernalia. An actress in the "Road to Yesterday" company, recently said: "Many of us prefer to breakfast in our rooms rather than bother to dress and go to the hotel dining room early in the day." She proudly produced a tin cup and a spirit lamp "by aid of which," she said, "I can, in the course of human events, boil an egg and make a cup of coffee." Her ambition was to have a small gas burner and tube and a little frying pan of her very own. "Think of the Welsh rabbit I could make, after the play," she said. To such a girl and to thousands of her kind this new frying pan ought to be very welcome. Polish Tarts:—Roll some good puff paste very thin. Cut into three-inch squares. Brush each square with the white of an egg, then fold the corners so that they all meet in the middle. Brush over all with the white of an egg, slift sugar over them and bake in a quick oven. When done, drop a spoon of jam or jelly in the center where the ends foln. Dried Peach Pie.—Until the fresh peaches get a bit cheaper, the average housewife will make her family content with pie made of the dried fruit. This is really very nice if carefully prepared. To the stewed and sweetened fruit add some sweet cream and a little butter. This, with some spice, makes the pie delicious, and is well worth the trouble and trifle of added cost. Cocoanut Pyramids.—These can be made in ten minutes in the afternoon if company comes in for a cup of tea. Beat the whites of two eggs with one-half pound of powdered sugar; beat well, until they will "stand alone." Then beat in one-half cup of desiccated (or grated) cocoanut and shape E.VOIGT MANUFACTURINGJEWELER 725 7th Street, Northwest Everybody has some friend whom may be mother or father, sister or brother may be a sweetheart — and no better propriate — so suggestive.

They require no cooking, but should be placed in a greased tin, or on paper, and browned in a quick oven.—Chicago Journal. The careful housewife has a use for everything, and the daily papers are by no means an inconsiderable factor toward insuring a clean kitchen. For instance, a supply of paper folded in eight and hung up over the kitchen sink will be found convenient to slip under a hot kettle that has just been lifted from the stove. A store of full-sized printed sheets should likewise be kept in the kitchen table drawer, so that there is always one handy to spread over the table if necessary during work, which can be afterward burnt. I wonder how many housewives know that prunes require absolutely no sweetening. I found by accident that if they are cooked slowly for "hours and hours" there is a sugar from them that nature provides as a sweetening. In other words, "they sweeten themselves," and if cooked long enough are covered with a rich syrup, without one grain of sugar being added to them. The flavor is also improved by this method of cooking them, and the oftentimes despised prune sauce becomes an enjoyable addition to the table.—Boston Post. An English fancy this, and a very taking one. Mix into a dough one cupful butter and three of sugar creamed together, three well-beaten eggs, a cupful of milk, two teaspoonfuls baking powder sifted with six cupfuls flour and a tablespoonful finely minced mint. Roll very thin, cut into squares and bake in a hot oven to a light brown. One large cup real wet, sour apple sauce, one cup sugar and the yolks of two eggs. Beat all together and bake in one crust as a custard pie. When done frost with the whites of two eggs and one tablespoon of sugar beaten stiff. Set in oven to brown. The English make their mint sauce with the addition of broth or concomne. To a handful of the finely minced leaves they add a half cupful each of water and broth, then four tablespoonfuls vinegar, a tablespoonful salt and a teaspoon of sugar. Mix well.

Mrs. W. F. WALKER. Stia. 1-Harriman, Teen. Ford's Hair Pomade Formerly known as Ozonized Ox Marrow. Fifty years of success has proved its merits. Its use makes the hair straight, glossy, soft and pliable, so you can comb it and arrange it in any style you wish consistent with its length. Removes stains, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off and gives it new life and vigor. Absolutely harmless—used with splendid results even on the youngest children. Delicately perfumed, its use is a pleasure, and ladies of refinement everywhere declare. Ford's Hair Pomade has imitators. Don't buy anything else alleged to be "just as good." If you want the best results, buy the best Pomade—it will pay you. Look for this name on every package. If your druggist will not supply you with the gannine sand and the appropriate postal money orders, it cents for regular size or 25 cents for small size bottle and give us your druggist's name and address.
