VOL. 29 NO 11 NEGROES REVOLT DENOUNCE CANDIDATE AT A MASS MEETING. "IN LEAGUE WITH SATAN." Republican Party Is Condemned for "Jim Crow" Support. Orators in Tirade Against G. O. P. Treatment of Black Race Applauded Vociferously — Rev. Corrothers Denounces the Nominee and the Party in Power as Being in League to Keep the Race Down. From the Herald. William Howard Taft, who wants to be President of the United States, was branded as not being a Christian last night. The brand was placed upon the Republican candidate by orators at a Bryan ratification meeting conducted under the auspices of the National Negro American Independence Political League. Applause greeted the speakers as they launched forth in their tirades against the nominee. And when the Republican party was assailed for its alleged indorsement of the "Jim Crow" laws of the Southern States, the applause was repeated. In fact, it was a memorable night in the annals of Negrodom in the National Capital. Mr. Taft was also held up for condemnation for the reputed part he played in the discharge of the Negro troops at Brownsville, Tex. And Again dust was raised by the stamping of feet as a part of the vociferous applause. While the meeting was primarily a ratification of the nomination of W. J. Bryan for President, the greater part of the addresses were devoted to attacks on Mr. Taft and the Republican party, and charging the Negroes of the country with voting with their eyes shut. In the opening address by Rev. S. L. Corrothers, Mr. Taft was declared to be in league with Satan. Dr. Corrothers said Mr. Taft neither believed in Jesus Christ nor the salvation of infants, and that he was worse than the heathen. Rev. J. Milton Waldron, president of the League, said the Republicans had practiced duplicity upon the Negroes of voting age long enough, and that it was time for them to open their eyes and see for themselves. He told of incidents in Florida, and how the Negro votes there. In opening the meeting Dr. Corrothers said: Voting Strength of League. "This League represents a voting strength of more than 800,00, 90 percent of which is opposed to Mr. Taft being elected President of the United States. "We who are assembled here number more than 1,000, and the meeting is for the purpose of publicly ratifying the nomination of William J. Bryan as the choice of the independent Negroes of this country for President." At this point Dr. Corrothers was interrupted with shouts of "Amen!" and words of approval from nearly the entire audience. After several minutes of applause, the Negro pastor was able to continue his address. "In entering upon this reform, which indicates a departure from the habits of the past, it might be well for us to remind you that for forty years there has been a growing dissatisfaction among the thoughtful Negroes of this country at the treatment received from the hands of the Republican party," said Corrothers. "Mr. Taft, the choice of the Republicans to carry the standard of that party this coming election, has declared time and again he was practically a 'Lily White Republican,' and you know what that means. He has put himself on record as in favor of 'Jim Crowism,' and the 'disfranchisement of the Negro.' "The Republican party, which you and I have been blindly following for the last forty years, is now headed by a dictator, a man who dictates to the Senate and the House of Representatives and the country at large. This is contrary to the Constitution, and I, for one, am going to vote down this tool, William H. Taft, in the furtherance of such dictation. "The action of President Roose- soldiers, and Mr. Taft's unqualified endorsement of the same, together with the endorsement of the 'Lily White' movement of the South,makes it absolutely impossible for any Negro to support either of them without stultifying his manhood. It will be argued that no Negro can support the Democrats without sacrificing his honor; but I want to remind you that the Democrat is under no obligation to the Negro nor the Negro under any to him. For forty years we have been taught that the Democrats were our enemies, and theDemocrats know that the Negro has been used for forty years to keep them out of power. Allege Disfranchisement. In twelve States of this Union we are disfranchised, 'Jim Crowed,' and depirved of our rights as American citizens, and all because we have allowed Republican officeseekers to array themselves against our white neighbors in the South, where nineteenth of our people have had to live and procure employment. A greater injustice could not have been perpetrated upon any people, but after forty years of suffering. I thank God the Negroes are getting their eyes open, and are coming to see that if a man succeeds in this life there must be peace on the inside. The only wise thing left for the Negro to do is to make peace with his neighbor in the community in which he lives. "The Southern white man is the Negro's best friend, so says King Roosevelt, so says the man he has appointed to be President of these United States, and so says Brother Moses' Washington. In this I am willing to trust their judgment. Therefore, I urge every Negro to vote for Mr. Bryan, thus demonstrating we have learned to recognize our friends as well as the men named. I believe that a division of the Negro vote will gain for us the respect of the best men of both the North and the South. The Republican leaders cannot have any respect for the Negro as long as they can use him at will. Neither can the Democrat as long as he knows the Negro can be bought and sold. Political independence is more important to the Negro at this time than industrial independence. "I am of the opinion there are millions of good white people in this country, and if the Negro will cease to be a slave to any one political party, and will exercise his freedom as a man and an American citizen in the right direction, the God of our fathers will win friends for him on all sides. "If the 900,000 Negro voters in the North, East and West will go to the polls on November 2 and vote for William J. Bryan for President, thus assuring his election, they will administer a deathblow to Southern disfranchisement and 'Jim Crowism.' "They will not only produce a change of sentiment with regard to the rights of the Negro of the South, but will teach the Republican administration a lesson, and for the next thousand years all political parties will be made to recognize that Negroes are men, that we are not asking favors because we are black, but we are asking justice because we are men." Mary Ann REV. O. M. WALLER Who Has a Peculiar Doctrine of Democratic Self-Defense THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE. The National Negro Business League is to meet in Baltimore, Md., Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 19, 20 and 21, 1908. The morning sessions of the League are to be held in Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church, and the evening sessions in Richmond Market Armory. The Baltimore Local Negro Business League is earnestly at work preparing for the reception and entertainment of the delegates. The citizens of Baltimore, the newspapers and official representatives of the city are so-operating to make the coming meeting a success. Aside from the interesting and instructive REV. O. M. Who Has a Peculiar Doctrine of "talks" of those on the program, the following features may be noted: Druid Hill avenue, occupied almost by Negroes who have bought and are buying their own homes, and the location of many successful business establishments conducted by Negroes, will be illuminated several blocks during Convention Week with electric streamers and a Court of Honor, by the city of Baltimore, in honor of the National Negro Business League. The city has also granted the use of the large steamer Latrobe for an excursion to Brown's Grove (an excursion grove conducted entirely by Negroes on Negro capital). on the afternoon of August 21. The reception in honor of the members of the National Negro Business League by the Local Negro Business League of Baltimore, assisted by the fraternal organizations of Baltimore, will be held in the Richmond Market Armory (through the courtesy of Commander Wagner of the Maryland Naval Reserves and Mayor J.Barry Mahool),corner Fifth avenue and Howard street, Friday evening, August 21, beginning at 9 o'clock. Numerous special social functions will also be given in honor of the National Negro Business League delegates by individual citizens of Baltimore during Convention Week. Local Negro Business Leagues are urged to begin electing their delegates at once. The names of all delegates thus selected should be forwarded to the corresponding secretary, Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. Mr. C. F. Adams, 934 S street northwest, Washington, D. C., will be pleased to co-operate in any way possible with city or State delegations in making transportation arrangements. Delegates intending to be present are urged to send immediate notice to Dr. L. H. enderson, chairman of Committee on Accommodation,No. 1418 Druid Hil lavenue, Baltimore, Maryland. The manager of the Baltimore Bargain House, the largest jobbing house in the South, has offered to furnish guides to show visiting business men through the establishment and explain its various departments and manner of conducting the business, on Thursday afternoon, August 20th. On Monday, August 24th, succeeding the meeting of the Negro Business League, the FredrickDouglass Memorial Home Association of Washington, District of Columbia, is planning to entertain the delegates with an "Outing" down the Potomac River at the new Washington Park. An elaborate program has been ar- WALLER, of Democratic Self-Defense. ranged; the receipts from the "Out- ing" through the generosity of Mr. L. E. Jefferson, who owns the two finely appointed steamers that will carry the delegates and others to the Park, which he also owns, will go toward the Douglass Memorial Home Fund. "FREDERICK DOUGLASS DAY." TO BE CELEBRATED AT WASH ...INGTON PARK, MONDAY,... AUGUST 24TH Dr. Booker T. Washington Orator of the Gala Occasion—At His Best on Such a Day and on Such a Theme. Speakers of National Note Will Then Voice the Acclaim of a Grateful People — $1,500 for the Douglass Memorial Homestead Fund—Preparing for 10,000 Delegates, Visiting Friends and Local Citizens, Our Gates Ajar for All. Through the courtesy of Mr. Emmett J. Scott, the corresponding secretary of the National Business League, we have received an advance copy of the official program to be carried out at the Baltimore Convention on August 19, 20 and 21. The offering is one of exceptional merit, every conceivable branch of industry and business in which the race is engaged is represented by men and women who have achieved pronounced success in their lines, and the program is thus bound to be both instructive and entertaining. Upward of fifty, delegates have been elected to represent the Washington Business League, and fully five hundred interested persons will go to be inspired by the stories of struggle and triumph which the speakeaks will relate. Ample accommodations have been provided for all, and the local committees, headed by Messrs. Harry T. Pratt, Josiah Diggs, William H. Dodd, A. T. Waller, James F. Fessenden, J. Henry Hammond, and Drs. J. H. N. Waring and L. H. Fenderson, have done their work with a painstaking care that calls for the highest encomiums. Douglass Day Here on the 24th --- On Saturday the delegates will come over to Washington to see the thousand-and-one beauties of the National Capital. The local League's handsome headquarters at 1742 Fourteenth street northwest — easy of access from all parts of the city — will be open from early in the morning until late at night, and every courtesy will be shown visitors who call to pay their respects, write a letter or rest from their journeys about town. Automobiles, carriages, etc., will be within call and the day can be spent most enjoyably. Everybody will remain over until Monday, the 24th. This will be "Douglass Day." Every lover of his race will join in this grand "outing" and pay a tribute to the memory of the "Great Commoner." The exercises will take place at Washington Park, the most beautiful pleasure resort owned by Negroes on the Potomac, and almost within the shadow of Cedar Hill, where the "Sage of Anacostia" spent his last days, and which will eventually become the "Mecca" for the colored people of this Republic, just as Mount Vernon is the rallying point for patriots of another race, who revere the "Father of Our Country." President Lewis Jefferson, of the Independent Steamboat and Barge Company, with characteristic generosity, has placed at the disposal of the Douglass Memorial Committee his two palatial steamers, the Jane Moseley and the River Queen, and trips will be made hourly between Washington and the Park after 10 a.m. The entire proceeds of the day will be devoted to the fund that is being raised to pay off the mortgage of something over three thousand dollars on the Cedar Hill home-stead. With anything like hearty cooperation on the 24th, not less than fifteen hundred dollars will be realized for this laudable purpose, reducing the obligation one-half. The Nation Will Lift Up Its Voice In the magnificent program,which will begin at 6 p.m., the nation for which Douglass lived,fought and died will lift up its voice in acclaim of his glorious deeds. Dr. Booker T.Washington, who has given much of his time and world-wide influence to the work of lifting this encumbrance from the old homestead, will deliver the principal address of the occasion. On such a day and with such a theme it cannot be doubted that the evereloquent "Wizard of Tuskegee" will be at his best. Other speakers of national prominence who will assist are: Prof Roscoe Conkling Bruce, Assistant Superintendent of Public Schools representing the schools of the District; Miss Eva A. Chase, the kindergartens; Rev. M. W. D. Norman the Baptist churches; Rev. J. H Welch, the A. M. E. Church; Rev. F. J. Grimke, the Presbyterian church; Rev. Sterling N. Brown, the Congregational church; Rev. T. J. Brown, the Episcopalian church; Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, the Federal Government; Hon. John C. Dancy, the A. M. E. Zion Church; Attorney Thomas L. Jones, the District bar; Editor W. Calvin Chase, the press; Undertaker J. H. Dahney, the business interests of the Negro; Chiei W. R. Griffin, the True Reformers; and Dr. A. M. Curtis, the medical profession. Judge Robert H. Terrell, of the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, will officiate as master of ceremonies — making in all a galaxy of noted orators, race builders, scholars and statesman such as are rarely brought together upon a single platform anywhere under the stur The Bee extends a cordial welcome to the delegates to the National Negro Business League, to the visiting friends from every section of the land, and to the hundred thousand citizens of the District of Columbia who took part in this grand celebration of the Negro's famous leader--the race's greatest contribution to the history of America.

While walking in his sleep last Monday night a man in Philadelphia fell to the sidewalk from the third-story window of his home. While he was badly bruised, not a bone in his body was broken. F. E. Bliss, who was thrashed and tarred last week by a trio in this city, declared that the report of his departure was absurd. The first great granite monolith for the east front of the Treasury was hoisted into place last Tuesday afternoon in the presence of a great crowd. Dr. Woodward, the Health Officer, is still inspecting the slaughter houses in the District. He finds that they are small and widely separated, making inspection difficult. United States Senator William Allison died last Tuesday afternoon of heart failure at his home in Dubuque, Iowa. The People's Bank of Union, S.C., closed its doors last Tuesday. Miss Anna Howard, who has been dean of the department of women in the University of Washington, left Seattle this week to become manager of a Kentucky mule farm.

Continued on Page 4 TABLE DELICACIES DISHES THAT ART WORTH APP ING TO THE DAILY MENU. Gooseberry Pudding a Splendid Dessert—Brown Chicken Fricassee —Flounders in a New Green Gooseberry Pudding—Boil a pint of green gooseberries till soft, and sweeten to taste. When quite cold mix in thoroughly four well-beaten eggs and one ounce of butter. Butter a mold and sprinkle it thickly with equal parts of sugar and fine bread crumbs, then pour in the gooseberry purée, belgh careful not to disturb the pating; cover the top nearly half an inch thick with crumbs and sugar, and bake for an hour. When taken from the oven cover with a cloth, and only turn out when wanted. Serve with clotted or whipped cream. A Mushrooms Stewed with Cream. This is a favorite recipe. Prepare a pound of mushrooms by paring off the ends. Clean and wash well and if very large cut in halves. Drain and place in a saucepan with three ounces of butter. Season with salt and pepper and cook five minutes. Add two tablespoonfuls of the white sauce made from a tablespoonful butter and one of flour, blended, then cooked with three-fourths cup milk to a smooth cream. Add also a half cupful of sweet cream to the mushrooms, cook three minutes longer and serve in a hot dish with eight heart-shaped bread croutons for garnish. Sauce for Mushrooms. Put three tablespoonfuls olive oil in a saucepan with one teaspoonful each of minced parsley and anchovies and a clove of crushed garlic. Heat five minutes, add to mushrooms that have been stewed in oil and serve. Sauce for Stewed Mushrooms.—Peel and remove the stalks from some large mushrooms, wash and cut in halves. Put two tablespoonfuls butter in a saucepan with two tablespoonfuls flour. When blended add a cup and a half hot milk and stir until smooth and thickened. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, pepper and a little powdered mace, and simmer gently until the mushrooms are tender. When cooked, turn on a hot dish, garnish with fried croutons or bread and serve. Brown Chicken Fricassee—For a brown chicken fricassee, Creole style, cut up the chicken in the usual way and fry in equal quantities lard and butter until nearly tender and brown. Dredge a little flour into the gravy and brown. Add a pint of boiling water, a small onion minced, a quart of potatoes and a small bunch of parsley. Simmer gently an hour or until very tender, and serve with rice. If preferred the rice may be added and cooked with the stew. Flounders in a New Way.—Flounders are good fried in the ordinary way in crumbs or in flour, and especially nice if melted butter seasoned with lemon juice and chopped parsley is passed with them; but here is quite a new way of cooking them: Wash the flounder and wipe it dry; lay it in a roasting-pan on top of two tablespoonfuls of minced onion, and sprinkle it with salt and pepper and a tablespoonful of chopped parsley; put it into a very hot oven and baste with half a cup of boiling water mixed with a tablespoonful of melted butter; when brown put the fish on a hot platter and put a teaspoonful of flour and a small half-cup of hot water into the pan, and stir and scrape over the fire till there is a nice brown gravy, adding a little kitchen bouquet to darken and season it; strain and pour this over the fish, and serve at once.—Harper's Bazar. Left-Over Eggs. Eggs that have been hard boiled and sent to the table and untouched can be sliced and dressed with mayonnaise. Fried eggs can be run through a food chopper, mixed with potatoes and cooked in potato balls. Poached eggs should be reheated and cooked done and run through a ricer to add to salads. Boiled or fried eggs if run through a ricer and mixed with finely chopped meat make good croquettes. If the yolk of an egg is used and the white is left, boast it and stir into apple sauce. A broken egg can be covered with water, placed in the refrigerator and will keep for several days. Cherry Pudding. Put into a saucepan two tablespoonfuls of butter with two tablespoonfuls of flour; blend well together over a gentle fire; add one pint of milk very gradually and stir until boiling; pour over a quarter pound of bread crumbs; add grated rind of one lemon, four tablespoonfuls of sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla extract, quarter pound of cherries cut in halves and three well-beaten eggs. Pour into a mold well greased and edcorated with cherries at the bottom. Cover with buttered paper, and steam two hours. Changing the Bed Linen. Arrange to change the bed linen on the day you sweep your bedrooms. The solled sheets may thus be drawn over the newly made beds to keep the dust from the spread and pillows. It will take but a few moments to remove these sheets and shake out of doors before consigning them to the clothes hamper. Nut Candy. Boil one quart of sirup, three cups granulated sugar, butter half size of egg, two tablespoons of vinegar until it is hard when dropped in water, add half teaspoon soda the last thing; spread nut meats in tin. Pour candy in thin sheets over the nuts. Dr. Anita Augsburg Has Served Many Prison Terms for Her Cause. Berlin,—Franklin Dr. Anita Augsburg, leader of the German claimants of votes for women in Germany, has served 70 years in prison for her insistence in behalf of her cause, and probably holds a record. "The Anita," her followers call her, recently attested attention again by her repudiation of the social democrats in the name of the woman suffrage movement. The socialists have long been looked upon as the especial DR. ANITA AUGSPURG friends of the advocates of "votes for women." The movements of no other woman in Germany outside of the members of the royal family are followed more closely by the public than those of Dr.-Augspurg. She is a familiar figure in almost every part of the German empire, her mass of short, curly hair, and close-fitting reform garb making her an easy mark for the curious. It is Dr. Augspurg's tongue which has landed her so often behind prison bars. She is a fearless speaker, and in a country like Germany her opinions on the equality of the sexes are regarded as little short of revolutionary. Her latest sojourn in prison was the consequence of a few remarks on the Hamburg police, after witnessing an attempt to quell a street riot. She was a born orator and politician. She has that greatest of all gifts for speaking, personal magnetism. This German woman is a lawyer. She is practically the mother of the women's movement in Germany. In 1902 she founded the Woman's Suffrage league, of which she is now president. The career of Dr. Augspurg is an example of the triumph of a strong-minded woman over the conventions that hedge about the sex in Germany. Practically her whole life has been a preparatory school for the unique position which she now holds. She was raised in a family of jurists. MERCHANT MARINE LEAGUE. Joseph G. Butler of Youngstown, O. Elected President. Youngstown, O.-Joseph G. Butler, Jr., of this city, who has been elected president of the Merchant Marine League of the United States, has been for many years general manager of the Brier Hill Iron & Coal company, and is a recognized authority on pig iron. When the Bessemer Pig Iron association was first formed Mr. Butler was chosen as chairman, and he JOSEPH G. — BUTLER J. still occupies that position. He has been connected with iron manufacture since boyhood and is considered to be one of the chief authorities in the United States on blast furnaces, coke and iron ore matters. Mr Butler is reputed to be a keen student of men and affairs and long has been interested in the work of the Merchant Marine league. He succeeds Harvey D Goulder, who resigned the presidency Victory for Norwegian Women. After granting women the parliamentary suffrage, Norway has gone a step further and voted to give all women employed in the postal service the same pay as the men. Norwegian women have struggled for this point for several years. Treasurers Guarded by Dogs. The treasures of the Louvre are no guarded by watchdogs TRY THIS ORANGE CUSTARD. Confection That Will Be Appreciated on a Hot Day. A delightful dessert, called orange custard, is made by taking the juice of a sweet or and half the rind, which has been pouled until tender. After it has cooled and has been beaten fine in a mortar, a tea-spoonful of brandy should be added with the orange juice, half a cup or more of granulated sugar and the yolks of four eggs. Into this mixture is poured two cups of boiled cream or rich milk, and the whole beaten until the custard is cold; then it should be poured into custard cups, with a bit of preserved orange placed on the top of each cup, and served at once or set away to cool. Butter and orange juice is prepared by mixing the juice of three sweetened oranges with as many teaspoonfuls of rose water, then adding the well-beaten yolks of six eggs, the whites of four and two cupfuls of powdered sugar. The mixture should be stirred over a slow fire till it thickens, then a table-spoonful of butter should be poured into a dessert dish and set away to cool. VIENNOISE PUDDING IS GOOD. Dessert Dish That Should Be Served with Sweet Sauce. Put two tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar into a small pan over the fire; lst it melt and become a rich brown color, but not black; allow to cool for a few minutes, then add three-quarters of a pint of milk. It will at first cause the sugar to set in a hard lump. That is quite right; merely stir it over the fire for a few minutes, and as the milk becomes hot the sugar will remelt. Mix together in a basin three ounces of cleaned sultana raisins, three tablespoonfuls of sugar, the grated rind and strained juice of one small lemon and five ounces of bread cut into small cubes like ordinary dice. Add the colored milk and allow to remain in a cool place for ten minutes. Beat up two eggs and add them with one glass of home-made wine. Let soak for 15 minutes. Pour the mixture into a buttered mold. Twist a piece of buttered paper over the top. Put the mold in the steamer for about one hour. Turn out and serve with sweet sauce. Crystal Mints. Add to one pound pulverized sugar enough cold water to make a very thick paste. Wet the sugar all through, but do not have it in the least thin or watery. Bring to a boll, taking care to stir enough to keep from burning. The paste thins as it heats and it can be easily stirred. Just as it bells take it from the fire, put in a few drops of oil of peppermint, tasting the mixture to see when the flavor is strong enough. Go cautiously, as the oil is very powerful. Mix well so that the flavor goes all through the mixture, then chop from the end of the spoon on any hard, smooth surface—a large plate will do. The mixture should form round drops that harden at once. If the sugar becomes too thick before you have the drops all made heat again and if absolutely necessary add a few drops of water, but be sparing of this or you will get the mixture too thin. Fresh Rolls Daily. When molding out the leaves set aside any desired quantity of the dough into the ice box. If kept perfectly cold this will remain sweet an indefinite time and can be shaped into rolls, used as basis for a raisin bread, coffee cake, or in any way desired. Allow about $2\frac{1}{2}$ hours in a warm place for raising the dough. If rolls are desired for breakfast mold them the last thing before retiring and set them where they will not be too warm. They will be ready for the oven in the morning. In this way fresh bread stuff in a variety of kinds may be had all through the week. For raisin bread add to two cups of the dough two-thirds of a cup of sugar and a cup of seeded raisins. Mix thoroughly and let raise three hours. Plumapple Jam. Peel and grate as many pineapples as are desired, remembering that the sugar loaf pine is best for the purpose. Welgh and allow an equal weight of sugar. Let the sugar and pineapple heat gradually for 20 minutes, then simmer steadily after the alrup reaches the boiling point for nearly an hour or until it becomes a clear amber jelly that thickens as it cools. If extremely juicy some of the liquor may be strained from the fruit and canned separately, to be used in the punch bowl. Baste Perforation Marks Instead of using lead pencils, chalk, tracing wheels to mark perforations when cutting out a pattern, run a basting thread through each perforation. Leave it a good length, knot at each end, and when pattern is removed pull double folds of material apart, cut thread in center, and knot ends. By this method the material is not disfigured, perforations are exactly where they should be, and only one pinning on pattern is necessary. Chilled Cream. Into a double boiler, beat the yolks of six eggs, add to them three ounces of grated chocolate, quarter of a pound of sugar and one pint of rich cream. Stir one way constantly until it thickens. Strain off into a large bowl. Beat half a pint of cream until very thick and add to this an ounce and a half of dissolved gelatin. Mix this very lightly with the chocolate and cream, then pour off into a mold and put on the ice to harden. Apartment May Be Kept Pleasant with a Little Care. A cool dining-room is one of the greatest blessings one can possess in summer, but if one's room is not cool on account of its location it can be kept cool with not a great deal of difficulty. Air the house thoroughly in the morning before the sun gets hot, and then close the windows to the very bottom and pull the shades all the way down. Close the door leading into the kitchen to keep the odor of the cooking out of the dining-room. If the room despite these precautions gets hot and sultry wring some cloths out of cold water and hang them in front of the window, which you have partially opened, and allow the breeze to blow through the wet cloths until they are dried. Quickly close the windows and place a dish or pail of cold water in the middle of the room. As soon as the water becomes warm remove it from the room. Even on the most sultry, muggy day this method will seldom fail to cool and refresh the air of the room. Adding a drop of two of oil of lavender to the water will give the room a delicate, indistinct order and will drive away any files which chance to be there. The Home. Salt sprinkled around the drains is a simple and inexpensive disinfectant. If hooks for the bathroom, kitchen and pantry are dipped in enamel paint there will be no trouble from iron rust. Maple sirup which has fermented and become sour can be freshened by heating to the bolling point and adding a little soda. Stir thoroughly, then skim. It is said if the upper sash of a window is drawn down to the sill, the lower one pushed to within two or three inches of the top of the window, it will give a good circulation in a sleeping room, yet the draft will not be noticed. To clean swansdown make a warm soap lather and in this gently knead the swansdown till clean. Then rinse in fresh cold water to which a little blue has been added. Shake well and hang in the air to dry, shaking from time to time to make the down fluffy. Lemon Ginger Beer This beverage should be made a couple of days before using. Pour two gallons cold water over a half-dozen lemons sliced thin, add a pound and a half sugar and a scant ounce ginger root. Let this come to a boil then add a tablespoonful cream of tartar. Strain and set in a cool place. When nearly cold, add a yeast cake dissolved in a little lukewarm water, stir thoroughly, then set in a cool place over night. In the morning mix well and bottle, corking air tight, and lay the bottles on their sides in a cool place. A small bottle of Jamaica ginger extract may be used in place of the whole ginger, if preferred. Wash Silk Waist. Make a strong suds of white soap, borax and lukewarm water. Put walst in suds, let soak for 15 minutes, then lift walst up and down and rub solled places with hands; do not use a board. Rinse in several cold waters and in the last a little borax and a piece of starch, size of a walnut, to about a gallon of water; then hang up to dry. When ready to iron, dampen thoroughly, let lie for a few minutes, then iron on wrong side with warm iron. I have treated a white china silk walst like this dozens of times and it always came out as white as new, with a slight stiffness which looks like new. Curried Pork. Cut two and a half pounds of fresh pork into square pieces, fry them in a stew pan with a piece of butter. Chop four onions and fry them also, then mix them with the pork. Add one tablespoonful of curry powder, season with salt and pepper, pour in one pint of water or stock, set over the fire until bolling, stirring constantly. Draw to one side and simmer slowly for about three-quarters of an hour. When done take out the pieces of pork, boil the gravy and about half the quantity and pour it over the meat. Serve with rice. Stringency Pudding It is not an especial mark of economy to save the stale bread for pudding, and then put in an extra amount of eggs, butter, and sugar to make it good. The success lies in making the pudding cheap. Pour boiling water on a half plint of broken bread. When soft mix in any kind of fruit—stewed or fresh—and add a bit of butter and one egg. Splice and sugar to taste and bake 20 minutes. Make a sauce of the beaten white of the egg, flavored and sweetened. Improved Shortcake. A great improvement on strawberry shortcake is made by adding three sliced bananas to two boxes of the berries when preparing them for the cake. This brings out all the delicate flavor of the berry and imparts a most delicious flavor to the whole cake. Bleach Grasa Stains. A good way to remove grass stains is to spread butter on them and lay the article in the hot sunshine. Cold water, a tablespoonful of ammonia, and soap will take out machine grease where other means would not answer on account of the color running. Wm.

IF YOU WANT A PLACE To Board ADVERTISE Go to HOLMES' HOTEL, No. 333 Virginia Ave., S.W Best Afro-American Accommodation in the District. FUROPEAN AND AMERI- LAN PLAN. James Otoway Holmes, Prop. Washington, D. C. Baked Balt Cod Soak salt codfish several hours in plenty of cold water, put into cold water, and simmer gently about 15 minutes. Pick into fine shreds and add the same amount of mashed potatoes. To one quart of the mixture add two rounding tablespoons of butter, one beaten egg, and hot milk to moisten. Put into a buttered baking dish, brush over with soft butter, dredge lightly with flour, and bake until brown on top. Serve with a sauce made from two level tablespoons of flour, four of butter, one cup of milk, and salt and pepper to season. Add a hard boiled egg chopped coarsely and heat well, then serve. A Substitute for Spinach. 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 flavor is much improved if a little vinegar and oil are added on the table. This is better than serving it with the greens as many persons prefer the butter dressing. Porch Chair. Mend your porch chairs with picture wire. It is easy to work with and strong. Lace across the seat and back to make a straight suffrace. Paint with enamel or carriage paint. Make covers to suit. I use burlap or dinim and fill with exce-slor. If they get wet they soon dry out and no harm is done. Destroy Moths If you suspect that there are moths in your carpets, try and locate their hiding place. Wring a coarse cloth out of clean water and spread it smooth on the spot in the carpet where you think the moths are. Iron the wet cloth with a hot iron. The steam will kill the moths and eggs. --- BROTHER CHARLESP. HAS GREATLY AIDED WM. H. TAFT IN RACE FOR FAME. Cincinnati Editor is a Man of Hobbies, the Biggest of Which is the Rep- ublican Candidate for President. Cincinnati.—In a quiet corner office of a high building which he owns, in this city, with only a bookkeeper to keep him company, you will find any day, when he is not in New York looking at old masters and porcelain, a quiet, ellim, white bearded man. But for him William H. Taft might never have gone to the Philippines or be- come secretary of war or a candidate for president. "Did we beat the P—— on the baseball extra last night?" Charles P. Taft calls downstairs to the editor of the newspaper which he owns. He enjoys his newspaper which has as lively headlines as any in the middle west. Baseball interests him equally with Gainsboroughs and Sir Joshua. He owns a large interest in the Chicago baseball club, in the gas works and the street car lines, in the leading hotel and the opera house, not to mention much real estate; or rather, he and his wife together. Her fortune he has multiplied. One day the editor told him of a smart baseball reporter who was looking wistfully at a broken down league team and sighing for capital. "How much do you want?" Charles P. asked the reporter. "One hundred thousand dollars." "Very good," said Charles P., who had been watching that young man for a year. "We'll go into partnership." A quiet man who makes business deals in this fashion naturally needs only a bookkeeper, [Name] Charles P. Taft. and when he wants a stenographer he can send for one downstairs in the editor's office. Everything the "Herr Doktor," as he was called among his fellow American students at Hiedelberg, has touched since he came home from finishing his education in Germany seems to have turned into money or art. He has been a Republican, mostly with the local boss, though sometimes against him. On the boardings of the city he has been cartooned villainously as a shlister "interest," and smiled over it and bought another china jar. In matters of music and art, Cindinnati agrees that he is her foremost citizen. "How do you like the interior of the hotel?" he asks the visitor from out of town, for Charles P. looked to the mural decorations in person. They are deservedly praised. In the evening he goes to an old-fashioned house, once the Longworths', whose domestic establishment is maintained for less than that of many houses occupied by a man of one-twentieth his income. But no one of moderate means could afford such furnishings. To be vulgar about it, there are well over a million dollars' worth of art treasures in the Taft home. Dealers say no false masters or imitation hawthornes have been sold to him. He has the discrimination of the wise buyer and the taste of the connoisseur. Seated among china of the Ming dynasty, he reads the baseball extra of his lively newspaper. He never brings business home unless it is William H.'s campaign. William H. is poor. He knows nothing of fortune winning. The only way he could make money would be practicing law. Charles P. is willing to have fame in the family, but it must all descend on me member. From the day that the elf other saw the gift of Will for making friends and for dictating in an exquisite ass of a bundle of cinema, the singer brother has been making all the old movies. He has always been trying to show Will the road to opportunity. Will was started by the travelling himself. New York the Verge of New York the Venice of America. It is a surrender there to know that New York City although not known as the city contains more islands than of the Venice, for with the exception of most of the coast will be commodities and the commerce of future years to reach unnamed of proportions, indeed from east and present growth — The Giant City New York. National magazine. USE ALCOHOL WITH POLISH. Housewife Discovers That It Aids in Cleaning Silver. "It may not be manners to discuss your hostess," said one of the guests after an elaborate luncheon, "but did you ever see such silver? Mine was actually greasy! Such carelessness is disgraceful." "Silver is hard to keep bright," murmured the woman who hated unkind criticism. "Nonsense, it isn't, and if it were, that is no excuse. Think how Carolyn's silver phone at her dinner, and she only keeps one maid. I asked her how she did it, and she said it was by mixing her silver polish with alcohol instead of water. You rub it up in the usual way, but the mixture gives a much more brilliant look. "When she takes it out of the bags, even after weeks stowed away, all she need do is to give must of the pieces a rub or two with a piece of roughed chamals. "She rinses the parts of the flat silver that go in the mouth with boiling water after using the 'chamols, as sometimes it gives a queer taste. "That silver last night could never be cleaned once a week, even much less given a special holiday shine. If the butter was too lazy to see that the silver was polished, at least he should have given it a boll in hot washing soda and water to cut the grease and make it look clean." APRICOT SOUFFLE IS GOOD. Easily Put Together After the Purpose Has Been Prepared. Half a pint of apricot purée, half a cupful of cream, three whites of eggs, $1\frac{1}{2}$ tablespoonfuls syrup from the apricots, two heaping tablespoonfuls of sugar, a squeeze of lemon juice, three drops of red coloring. Prepare the purée by rubbing either canned or bottled apricots through a fine sieve. Use a little of the syrup along with the apricots and do not make the purée too thick. Dissolve the gelatine in two tablespoonfuls of the syrup and strain it into the purée. Add the sugar, lemon juice and coloring. Beat the white of the eggs to a stiff froth and whip the cream. Stir these lightly into the apricot mixture, and when beginning to set, pour all into a wetter mold and keep in a cool place until firm. When wanted, turn out on a glass or china dish. This pudding may be made more ornamental by decorating the top of the mold with a little sweet jelly and a few pieces of apricot before pouring in the mixture. Or the apricot mixture may be set in a ring mold and whipped cream plied in the center when it is turned out. HOUSEHOLD TALKS Newspapers may be used to pad the ironing board just as well as an old blanket or muslin. Soap well applied to drawer slides will keep the drawers in furniture and closets from sticking. If you will varnish your linoleum about every three months it will last much longer than without the coats of varnish. When washing floors or cleaning windows always put a few drops of paraffine in the water and this will keep away files, moths and other insects. The skin from a boiled ham will be more easily removed if as soon as being taken from the boiling liquor the ham be plunged into cold water for a moment. To mend hemstitching cover the space of the worn hemstitching with insertion and stitch both edges on to tray cloth and it will then be as good as new and even prettier. Hair brushes should be washed, if possible, every day. The best plan is to keep two in use at the same time. Unless a clean brush is used the hair loses the bright, glossy look that it should have. Cheese may be kept from going moldy by wrapping it in a cloth dipped in vinegar and wrung nearly dry. Cover the cloth with a wrapper of paper and keep in a cool place. A Cooling Drink. Among the most refreshing of summer drinks is pineapple lemonade. To the juice of four lemons allow a large pineapple, finely grated, a pound of sugar and a pint of water. Boll the sugar and water together to a thin syrup, skimming well. Mix the pulp of the pineapple and the lemon juice in a bowl, add the sirup and set on the ice to cool and ripen for several hours. When ready to serve, pour into the mixture a quart of ice water and pour into tall, thin glasses. If preferred, a charge water can be used instead of the plain water. Veal Guns with Macaroni If veal or mutton is left over in scant quantities for a meal, boll sufficient macaroni to double the amount and put through the food chopper, using coarse cutter. Season highly with salt, pepper, onion juice and chopped parsley, and to each plint add a well beaten egg and two tablespoons of good gravy. Pack into buttered cups, steam for half an hour, and serve with tomato or brown sauce. Currant Dessert. One box of red currants, one box of red raspberries, and two quarts of water boiled to a pulp, then strain. add one small cupful of fine sage, previously soaked in cold water for 15 minutes, boil until clear, sweeten to taste, eat cold with milk or cream TABLE DELICACIES FAMOUS RECIPES OF EMMA PAD DOCK TELFORD. Many Especially Adapted for the Hot Weather—Swatza a Palatable Breakfast Dish—Fligs and Rhubarb Combined. Black Currant Fool.—Pick off the stems, wash clean, drain well and put into a saucepan with sugar to sweeten. Stir over the fire until soft, press through a fine hair sieve, return to pan and simmer gently until the consistency of thick cream. Chill, put in the icebox and leave until ready to serve. Turn into a glass dish and serve with whipped cream. Black Currant Ice Cream.—Staw one cupful of black currants five minutes, then press through a fine sieve. Add a cupful of rich syrup and a cupful thick cream, beat well, then freeze. When stiff pack in an ornamental mold, cover close and pack in ice and salt. When ready to serve turn out on a low glass dish, garnish with crystallized cherries and leaves of angelica. Spiced Currants.—This is a delicious accompaniment to roast beef in winter and should be made now. To every seven pounds courants allow three and a half pounds sugar, a pint of vinegar and a cup currant juice. Cook about half an hour or longer until the mixture thickens, add three tablespoonfuls cinnamon and a tablespoonful and a half powdered cloves, cook a few moments longer, then pour into a stone pot or glass cans as preferred. Currant Catsup—This, too, is an excellent relish for future use. To four pounds ripe currants allow a pound and a half sugar, a tablespoonful ground cinnamon, a teaspoonful each ground cloves, salt and pepper and a pint of vinegar. Stew until quite thick, strain and bottle. Cherry Brown Betty—Put a layer of plitted sweetened cherries in the bottom of a baking-dish, cover with fine bread crumbs dotted with bits of butter and so continue until the dish is full. Have the top layer of the buttered crumbs. Cover and bake an hour, uncover and brown. Serve with hard sauce flavored with nutmeg. Swatza.—This makes a good summer breakfast dish, quickly prepared and nourishing. To serve three persons, beat three eggs in a soup plate until well blended. From a large loaf cut five slices bread and cut these in halves. Put a tablespoonful butter in the frying pan, and as soon as hot put in as many slices of the bread which have been dipped in the beaten egg as it will hold. As soon as golden brown on one side turn and crisp the other. It will take but a moment. As fast as finished pile on a platter and keep hot until all the slices are done and ready to serve. Serve with maple or fruit syrup. Figs and Rhubarb.—Wash two bunches rhubarb and cut into inch pieces without peeling. Put into the double bolder with a cupful sugar and four or five figs cut in inch pieces. Put on the cover and cook over hot water until the rhubarb is tender and, the syrup rich and jelly like in consistency. Raisins are nice cooked in the same way with rhubarb. If preferred and you are to have a hot oven anyway put the rhubarb and figs or raisins in a stone pot, cover closely and bake in the oven until jellied.—Emma Paddock Telford. Savory Tongue Creams. Six ounces of cooked tongue, three ounces of cooked chicken, half a tablespoonful of powdered gelatine, half a cupful of white sauce, three small tomatoes, one tablespoonful of chutney, a few drops of red coloring, salt and paprika to taste, some jelly, some aspie jelly, pastry and lettuce. Coat some wet molds with liquid tomato jelly, then let it set. Mix the gelatine with one gill of the tomato jelly, dissolve and strain. Chop finely the tongue and chicken, add tomato, pound them till smooth, add white sauce, chutney, salt and paprika, rub through a sieve, add the gelatine and coloring. Divide this mixture into the molds. Turn out when firm and garnish with parsley, lettuce and chopped aspie jelly. Raspberry Cream. Soak one-half of a box of gelatine in one-half of a cupful of cold water and when soft add one-half of a cupful of boiling water in which has been dissolved one cupful of sugar. Strain, add one pint of raspberry juice and set in a cool place or on ice until the mixture begins to thicken; beat slowly with an egg-beater until frothy and quite thick; stir in carefully one pint of cream, whipped to a solid froth. Turn into wetted molds and set away until firm. Health Bread. Two cups of rye meal, one cup of fleur, toast of salt, one cup of sour milk, one egg, one spoon lard, one half teaspoon of a flour. Paste in loaf or hat tin, slowly. With maple Fruit. Whip or creme of cream, roll out oatmeal, and macaroni or half cup. One cup of walnuts. Serve ice cold in ice cubes with candled cherries Lemon Sherbet Use four cups water, two cups sugar, one tablespoon gelatin. Dissolve gelatin in part of the water the sugar in the balance, mix thoroughly, and freeze. FOR THOSE FOND OF CHERRIES. Four Recipes with This Fruit as a Foundation. Candled Cherries—Wash, stem and pit one pound of large, firm cherries, putting a pound of sugar to a pound of the fruit. Boll the juice and the sugar to a very thick sirup. Put the cherries in this sirup and let them simmer—not boll—for ten minutes. Then set them away in the sirup until the next day. The next morning take the cherries out of the sirup and put in a deep dish. Let the sirup boll up once and pour over the cherries. This should be done for three mornings. On the fourth morning boll the sirup almost to the thickness of candy, dip the cherries in and let them get thoroughly coated, then place them separately on flat dishes and dry. German Cherry Pie—Make a cherry pie as usual, but omit the upper crust. When almost done beat one egg until very light and add to it one scant half cupful of rice cream. Pour this mixture over the top of the pie. Put pie back in oven and bake until the custard is set. This makes a very attractive as well as an appetizing dish. Cherry Taploca—Soak one small cup of taploca in water over night. In the morning add a pinch of salt and cook until clear, then add butter the size of an egg and one cup of sour cherries, which have been washed and stoned. Add to this sugar enough to sweeten. Flavor with vanilla, turn into earthen or agate dish and bake until it bubbles up. Serve ice cold with rice cream. Cherry Salad—This is a very dainty dish and really requires little time. For a course at a luncheon it is most tempting. Either the large white or red cherries can be used and it is most effective to mix the two colors. The fruit should be stoned without breaking and in the place of each stone is placed a nut meat (hickory nut, hazlenut or anything you have on hand). The cherries are then spread on the white leaves of lettuce and served with a sharp French dressing, omitting the pepper. FOR JELLIED CHICKEN PIES. Just the Dish That Will Find Favor on a Hot Day. Joint a pair of tender chickens as for fricassee. Cover with cold water, putting the cleaned giblets with them. Set at the side of the range and bring slowly to a gentle boll. Keep this up for half an hour. Take out the meat and set aside to cool. Add to the gravy a teaspoonful of onion juice, a stalk of celery, chopped, a tablespoonful of minced parsley, pepper and salt to taste. Boll for half an hour longer, closely covered. Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in cold water for an hour, and while the gravy is still hot strain it over the soaked gelatin. Then pour upon the chicken. Have ready a good puff paste nearly an inch thick. Arrange the chicken neatly in a deep dish, pour in the gravy, which should cover the meat entirely, put on the crust, printing it all around the edge to prevent shrinking and "crawling," and bake in a moderate oven for an hour with a paper over the crust. Remove the paper and brown... Should be eaten cold with sauce. Puff Paste. Into one quart of sifted flour mix two teaspoons of baking powder and a teaspoon of salt, then slift again. Measure out one teacup of butter and one of lard, hard and cold. Take the lard and rub into the flour until a very fine, smooth paste, then put in just enough ice water, say half a cup, containing a beaten egg, the white of the egg to mix a very stiff dough. Roll it out into a thin sheet, spread with one-fourth of the butter, sprinkle over with a little flour, then roll up closely in a long roll like a scroll. Double the ends toward the center, flatten and reroll, then spread again with another quarter of the butter. Repeat this operation until the butter is used up, put it on an earthen dish, cover it with a cloth and set it in a cold place, in the ice box in summer. Let it remain until cold, an hour or more before making out the crust. You may roll this pastry in any direction, but you must have nice flour, ice water, and very little of it. Removing Stains Glycerine rubbed into coffee or tea stains will remove them from woolen and other materials, and itself be then washed out with soap and water. To remove blood spots, drop cold water quickly on the stains, and then cover with a thick layer of powdered starch. When dry, brush off, when the stain should have vanished, though it sometimes happens - that a second application is necessary. Spots that have dried into the fabric need soaking in cold water. Cherry Jam. Stem, wash and pit the cherries and heat slightly to extract the juice. To each pound of fruit add three-quarters pound of sugar. Bring slowly to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Skim, put into jam pots, and at the end of 24 hours cover and put away. Coffee Frappe. Boll one quart of water with half a cup of sugar, add four ounces of ground coffee, and set at the side of the stove for ten minutes. Strain, and when cold add the white of one egg. Freeze and serve in individual glasses, topped with whipped cream. Rhubarb Ple One cup sugar, a pinch of salt, a sprinkling of cinnamon, one table-spoon flour. Take half of each of the ingredients and spread on under crust and the other half on rhubarb. DISHES THAT TEMPT DAINTIE FOR THE LUNCHEON OR BREAKFAST. Wheat Gems and Rice Muffins Are Welcome Additions to the Menu —Orange Pancake Always a Favorite Delicacy. Wheat Gems.—Beat three eggs until thick, add one tablespoonful of sugar, half a teaspoonful of salt, and one pint of milk; pour this gradually upon one pint of flour; beat thoroughly; add the butter, melted; butter hot gem pans, fill them two-thirds full with the batter, and bake 20 minutes in a quick oven. Rice Muffins.—Beat the yolks of two eggs; add to them one cup of milk, one cup of cold boiled rice, one tablespoonful of softened butter, half a teaspoonful salt and a cup and a half of flour; beat well and add the beaten whites of the eggs and two level teaspoonfuls of baking powder; fill greased gem pans two-thirds full and bake them in a quick oven 20 minutes. Cheese Drops—Put six tablespoons of boiling water in a small pan; when boiling add half a level tablespoonful of butter and four level tablespoonfuls of flour, one and a half eggs unbeaten, adding one, then beating well, then the half and beat well; drop from a spoon on a buttered pan, brush with egg, and crinkle with grated cheese and a little cayenne; bake in a rather quick oven 15 to 18 minutes. Orange Pancakes.—Put two cupfuls of sifted flour in a bowl; add one and a half level teaspoonfuls of baking powder, half a teaspoonful of salt, and two well beaten eggs; beat this mixture for five minutes; add one tablespoonful of powdered sugar and one cupful of milk; butter a frying pan, pour in a little of the mixture, and tip the pan so that the batter will spread over the surface; when ready to roll, spread over some orange pulp and a Little powdered sugar; roll as for jelly cake; lift to a hot platter and pour over a glaze made by boiling together the juice of one orange and one cup of granulated sugar; when it has boiled one minute pour it over the pancakes. Velvet Shortcake.—Add one teaspoonful of salt to one quart of flour; dissolve one teaspoonful of soda in one tablespoonful of boiling water; add this to two and a quarter cups of sour milk, then add this to the flour; toss on a floured board, roll lightly to half an inch thick and the size of a breakfast plate; place these on a hot griddle, brown on one side; turn and brown the other, split, and butter; serve hot. Washing Woolen Garments The very best way to wash sweaters, bables' sacques, leggings and afghans—in fact, all garments knitted or crocheted—of wool is to sew the article in a bag of cheesecloth or mosquito netting. Then, wash the bag, with its contents, in soft water with a good white soap. The water must not be cold; neither must it be very hot, and, of course, the soap must never be rubbed into the bag, the water being soaped beforehand. After rinsing in several waters, which must be of the same temperature as the soapy water, rip the garment from the bag, but do not hang it on a line to dry: lay it flat on a table without stretching; place in the air to dry; if colored, avoid the sun light, as it will fade it. Some ammoglia in the water helps to keep wool garments soft. The disastrous experience that many people have had in washing sweaters is due to the fact that they wring and stretch them, which should never be done. Simply crush the bag to squeeze out the water, but do not wring. Why Cakes Often Fall. Because inferior ingredients are used, such as rancid butter, inferior sugar, damp flour, and doubled eggs. Because either the butter is insufficiently beaten with the sugar or rubbed into the flour, or the eggs are not beaten enough. Because the mixture is beaten after the flour is added, whereas all that should be done before. The management of the oven is not understood and the cakes are either too dark or too pale. Because the cakes are not carefully tested to make sure that they are cooked. The cakes are either left in the tin or put flat on the table to cool; whereas they should be placed on a sieve or tilted up against something, so that the steam can escape. In Ironing Lace If you iron your lace or embroidered muslin on a board or table covered with several thicknesses of flannel and no muslin over them, they will look much nicer than if ironed in the ordinary manner, as the flannel "gives" and the raised work stands out. Tender Pork Chop. Cut out bones, flatten well with knife, salt and pepper to taste, then turn in cracker crumbs, then in beaten egg, fry brown on both sides; then cover and let stand on a small fire for an hour. Add no water, as herein lies the success. To Keep Corned Beef Moist. Before putting away what is left after serving hot corned beef wet it over with a little of the water it was boiled in. When served cold the slices will not have dry edges. One-Egg Cake. Sullivan Cake—One egg, one cup milk, one cup sugar, one tablespoon butter, salt, two teaspoons baking powder, flour to thicken, one cup raisins. Dainty That Involves Much Work for the Cook. Have a fat, six weeks' old pig carefully dressed, the inside of the ears, mouth and tongue cut out. After washing inside and out, sub well with a mixture of salt, sage, black and red pepper. Stuff the pig with a dressing made of light bread, butter, salt, pepper, sage and thyme, well mixed, and molested with milk or water until it is soft, for it will get firmer in cooking. Then sew up the pig carefully, put in a pan with a little water, and set in a moderately heated oven. Leave the doors open at first. Mix butter and flour in a plate and have a larding mop ready. Mop the pig frequently. As it roasts close the doors gradually. Occasionally pour over it some of the gravy in the pan and turn it over frequently, so that it may brown evenly. Boll until tender the liver and toes, and when the pig is done chop them up and add to the gravy. Roast from two to three hours, according to size. Serve with apple sauce and pickles. Place pig on platter, an apple in its mouth, parsley around it, and take to the table. RICE SURPRISE, WITH SAUCE. Excellent Dessert Dish for the Luncheon or Dinner. Quarter of a pound of rice, half a pint of water, one pint of milk, one heaping tablespoonful of butter, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla extract, some jam. Wash the rice in several waters and put it into a saucepan with the cold water. Let it boll quickly until the water is absorbed, then add the milk and butter. Simmer very slowly until the rice is thoroughly cooked and the mixture rather thick. Stir occasionally, as it will be inclined to stick to the foot of the saucepan. When ready, remove the saucepan from the fire and add the sugar and flavoring. Rinse out some small cups of timbale molds with cold water, three-quarters fill them with rice and make a little hollow in the center. Put a teaspoonful of any nice jam into each, cover and fill with more rice and set aside to cool. When firm, turn out on a glass dish and serve with custard sauce poured round. WHEN WEATHER 18 HOT. Housewife Will Earn Commendation with Jellied Chicken. One good chicken, one heaping tablespoonful powdered gelatine, one onion, two bay leaves, half teaspoonful whole white peppers, one blade of mace, one teaspoonful salt, grate of nutmeg, half teaspoonful celery salt, three cloves, three hard cooked eggs, six olives, one can mushrooms, some parsley parsley, mayonnaise sauce. Singe and draw the chicken, put into a kettle of boiling water and cook slowly until tender. Lift out and set aside to cool. Cut the meat in neat pieces. Put the skin and bones into a saucepan, one quart of the liquor, onion cut up and the seasonings, simmer until reduced to one pint, then add the gelatine and strain. Arrange a layer of the chicken in a wet mold, then some slices of egg, mushrooms, stoned olives, chopped parsley, then more chicken and so on till all are used up. Fill the mold with the stock. Turn out when set. Serve with mayonnaise sauce. Creamed Gucumbers Peel two or three large cucumbers and cut very fine with a sharp knife or run through the coarsest knives of the meat chopper. Drain off the liquid, but do not press. Rub a bowl with a clove of garlic, put in the minced cucumbers and season with cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, a teaspoonful of onion juice and the strained juice of half a small lemon. Chill all the ingredients thoroughly and just before serving stir in half a cupful of thickly whipped cream. This makes a nice sauce for serving with fish or is equally good put on the half shells. Serve one to each person and pass, with soft shell crabs or broiled lobster at a luncheon. Instead of Curtain Rods. At a bargain store, get a copper-covered wire about as thick as your little finger, and have them cut it the width of your window. Also buy two screws eyes. Put a screw eye on each side of the sash opening, one of them so that the wire will slip in. Run the wire through the curtain casings and put the ends in the eye. Your curtains will hang as nicely as though the fixtures had cost three times 15 cents, the actual cost of your "rods."—Dellineator. Chocolate Molasses Taffy. One cup of sweet milk. Melt in it two squares of chocolate, then add one cup of brown sugar, one of molasses and a piece of butter as large as an English walnut. Boll and stir till it will harden in water. Add vanilla and a pinch of soda. Pour in a buttered tin to cool. Should be brittle. Lemon Butter. When children become tired of jolles and fruit butters a most delicious and healthful spread can be made from the following: Two cups granulated sugar, three eggs, one teaspoonful butter, two lemons, grated rind and juice, one cup of hot water. Cook in double boiler until thick. Eggs for Invalids. Cover frying pan with cream. When hot beat as many eggs as wanted, seasoned with little salt, and keep stirring until light.

One of the most remarkable declarations made and definitions given of self-defense was in a speech delivered by Dr. O. M. Waller at a meeting held under the auspices of the National Independent Political League held in Galbraith A. M. E. Zion Church Monday evening, August 3. The distinguished doctor, among other things, admitted that the Democratic party disfranchised colored Americans, established the "Jim Crow" car system, and did many other unconstitutional acts, but they were committed in self-defense. These acts are criminal and unconstitutional. The Bee will discuss again the alleged self-defense of the Democratic party which are endorsed by Dr. Waller. "Self-defense (in criminal law). The protection of one's person and property from injury." This is the definition given by Bouvier. "A man may defend himself, and even commit a homicide, for the prevention of any forcible and atrocious crime which, if complete, would amount to a felony. 17 Ala. U.

He is ejected in Virginia because he is a colored American citizen, and by such ejection under the laws passed by a Democratic Legislature of the State of Virginia it is justifiable, according Dr. Waller's definition of self-defense. A colored American who votes against a Democratic candidate for the Legislature, or any other candidate whom he knows to be inimical to him and his constitutional rights must be disfranchised, according to the doctrine of self-defense enunciated by Dr. O. M. Waller. He further asserted that the Democratic party is right in committing these offenses for its own protection. Certainly a colored voter knows for whom he wants to vote. Who gave him the privilege to vote? The Democratic party or the Republican party? Which party is actign in self-defense? The party which gave the colored man the privilege of voting, or the party which, by Legislative enactments, that deprives the colored voter of the privileges given him by the Republican party? What does Mr. Taft represent. The colored voter should ask himself the question. What does Mr. Bryan represent? Mr. Taft in his speech of acceptance declared he stands by the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution. The platform of the Republican party declared for equality of citizenship and particularly named the rights of colored Americans. The platform of the Democratic party is silent and gives colored Americans no assurance whatever. The platform of the National Independent League says nothing. And how can it when John Tem- Further discussing Dr. Waller's doctrine of self-defense, it is laid down in law books that "a man may repel force by force in defense of his person, property or habitation against anyone who manifests intends, attempts, or endeavors, by violence or surprise to commit a forcible felony, such as murder, rape, robbery, arson, burglary, and the like." In these cases he is not required to retreat, but he may resist, and even pursue his adversary until he has secured himself from all designs." 1 East, Pl. Cr. 271; 4 Blackstone. Dr. Waller holds, in contradistinction to the definition cited above, that the Democrats of North Carolina that has as their adversary the Prohibition and Republican parties, was justified in stealing the State and disfranchising peaceable colored Americans because they would not vote for its Democratic candidates. Dr. Waller justifies the Democrats of West Virginia in adopting a disfranchisement plank against colored Americans because they vote with the party that permits them to enjoy the rights of citizenship. The plank calls for "Jim Crow" cars and the enactment of laws to prohibit colored men from voting. The Democratic party of West Virginia is only acting in self-defense, according to the theory of Dr. Waller. The Bee only wants to lay before the colored voters the doctrine that is being taught by Dr. Waller Dr. Corrothers, Bishop Walters, Prof. DuBois and others. Well,suppose colored Americans North, where they are treated with consideration by the Democratic party, vote for Mr. Bryan. In State elections North the colored man should vote to his best interest, but in national elections there Is a difference. The standard-bearers of these parties represent different interests and principles. The principles of the Democratic party in State elections are entirely different..The North may declare equality of citizenship, and recognize the merits of colored Americans. The South has made a record for oppression murder, disfranchisement, and assassination. It must be admitted that the crowd that assembled in True Reformers' Hall last Monday evening must have been a surprise to those who have been so long identified with the Republican party. If anyone had said ten or twenty years ago that colored Americans would have dared to assemble in a public hall and endorse Democratic presidential candidates and their party he would have been called a wizard or a worshiper of false goods. There were fully one thousand colored citizens present last Monday night, and a good sprinkle of white men. The principal speakers were Dr. Corrothers, Dr. Waldron and Mr. L. C. Moore, formerly a member of the Mississippi Legislature. The Bee will give the speakers credit for the enthusiasm that they caused by their speeches. That of Dr. Corrothers was full of ginger, and he was applauded to the echo. The audience was nine-tenths colored, and as evidence of its loyalty to the Republican party Dr. Corrothers failed to submit to resolutions to a vote. While this may be,theRepublican managers should get to work at once. If such meetings as the one last Monday evening, were held in States there is no telling the harm that would be done. There are hundreds of prominent colored men waiting for an opportunity to join the political organization. The name of Senator Foraker continues to be a household word. He is the idol of the colored race, and no matter what may be said. It is not wise to underestimate the harm that is being done by Dr. Sylvester L. Corrothers. The colored Americans seem to be with him in sentiment, if nothing more. A SLUR RESENTED. Many of those Negroes who will travel long distances to attend the soon-to-be-held annual meeting at Baltimore, Md., of the National Negro Business Men's League will next winter need the money they will spend for transportation, etc., and for social enjoyment while in that city.—Cleveland Gazette. Every member of the National Negro Business Men's League will will resent this fling from Harry Smith. When he penned the above lines for his paper, the Cleveland Gazette, it was with malice aforethought. He meant it as a knock at the League. The men who belong to and attend the meetings of the League are men who are building for the race. They are earnest, sincere men, and men who are able to spend the money necessary to take them to some point where they can annually meet business men of their race to discuss, for mutual and race benefit, business affairs. There is no man or association or institution, but who has been assailed, at some time, by Harry Smith in his paper. He seems to be sore on the world. There is nothing that looks bright to him. He is a professional fault-finder. Come, come, Cleveland Gazette! and awake to the good things all about you. Don't think or an instant that the thousands of hustling colored business men are going to stop for an instant for your sake, nor that the National Negro Business Men's League will call off its annual meeting because you do not approve of it. You are not the only pebble on the beach. MR. BRYAN'S SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE Now, what can Negro. Democrats and the National Political League, Messrs. Walters Corrothers and others, get out of Mr. Bryan's speech of acceptance delivered at Lincoln, Nebraska, Wednesday? The only soothing thing so far as human rights are concerned, is the declaration that he will give justice to all. He says nothing concerning the disfranchisement of colored Americans by his party and neither does he say that he will enforce the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States. Let The Bee hear from colored Democrats. COMMITTEEMAN BIEBER. Mr. Sidney Bieber, National Committeeman for the District of Columbia, will go to New York next month in the office of National Chairman Hitchcock. Mr. Bieber, who has defeated his enemies an dtraducers, will spring a surprise in a few weeks. In speaking to a Bee representative Mr. Bieber favors the reappointment of Commissioner West in the event of Mr. Taft's election. GILT EDGE! ,Elsewhere in TheBee will be seen and read with interest a letter from Major Charles W. Fillmore,of this city, who will resign his position in the Treasury Department and en- "While William H. Taft is not responsible for the order of President Roosevelt dismissing the Negro troops of Brownsville, he has, in numerous public utterances, both as a public official and private citizen, approved and defended the President's course in dismissing from the army, without trial and without proof of guilt, 167 brave black soldiers. REPUBLICANS ORGANIZE. Th colored voters of the. State of New York have organized the Empire State Republican Club, the object of said club being for the mutual benefit and protection of its members, the promotion and cultivation of social relations between them, the exchange and discussion of political opinions and ideas, and the promotion and success in New York and elsewhere in the United States of the principles and doctrines of the Republican party. The Empire State Republican Club is the first one of its kind to be organized by our people here in the District of Columbia, and it is to be hoped that every colored citizen of the State of New York will avail themselves of the opportunity to join the organization, thereby paving the way for a powerful allied organization of the United Colored Republican Clubs of the United States. The officers of the Empire State Republican Club are as follows: President, Walter A. Pinchback, of the office of the Recorder of Deeds; vice president, Edward G. Nalle, of the Government Printing Office; secretary, Thomas Carter, of the Treasury Department, and treasurer, Dr. Charles I. West, of the faculty of Howard University Medical School. The club has its office at 494 Louisiana avenue northwest, and holds weekly meetings at the residence of Dr. Charles I. West, 924 M street northwest; every Friday, evening at 8 p.m. All persons eligible to membership in the organization are respectfully requested to attend one of the meetings or communicate with one of the officers above named. From the personnel of the officers it is readily to be seen that the club will be of great help, not only to themselves, but to the colored cictizen generally. In talking to Mr. Pinchback he gave me to understand that the club is not a "graft" organization, and under no circumstances will it tolerate the methods which have been pursued by some of our so-called organizers during the past campaigns. That Mr. Pinchback's efforts have been appreciated by the Republican party is evidenced by the number of congratulatory letters he has received from certain members high in the councils of the present administration. To the Editor of The Bee: I have had it impressed upon me strongly lately that the money institutions, firms and individuals of the race in few cases have the opportunities and chances to invest their funds as advantageously and safely as they are entitled to. So, after a most careful study and investigation of this subject, I have decided to resign my position in the Treasury Department of the United States, and give all my time and energies for the purpose of helping the investors of my race. I have made arrangement with Messrs, J. F. Pierson, Jr. & Company, bankers, of New York, and members of the New York Stock Exchange, for this purpose. They have promised to give me all the advantages and facilities at their disposal. They are at all times in the best possible position to give their customers the best, gilt-edge investment, such as Government and municipal bonds, first mortgage railroad bonds, and all the best railroad road and industrial stocks. Their commission is only 1-8 of 1 percent, so all my clients will get their investments at the very best ruling prices, without paying any fancy commissions. They are also in a position to invest funds in the best New York city mortgages, both guaranteed and others more speculative. They will act as a depository, representatives and fiscal agents and bankers, etc., allowing ruling rates of interest on deposits or lending money of their clients either on time or call, receiving the best gilt-edge stocks and bonds as collateral. I find all these advantages have never before been offered the busi- ness people of my race by a house of the standing of the one I will be associated with, and I sincerely hope I may hear from you with a promise of your help, co-operation and business, when you are prepared to give any. CATED COLORED WOMEN. There is a great demand, mucli greater than is being supplied, throut the country for the services of colored women who can teach domestic science. At the same time there are many colored girls and women who have finished the public, or high, schools who are without employment. The Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute has facilities for giving special courses in Domestic Science to colored women who wish to prepare themselves as teachers of domestic science. The course extends from one to two years. Women who have finished public or high school courses are especially urged to take this course. For further information address, Booker T. Washington. Tuskegee Institute, Principal. THE NEGRQ BUSINESS LEAGUE SOUTH. At Columbia, Greenville, Spartanburg, S. C., Charlotte, Salisbury, Highpoint, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Durham, Raleigh, Goldsboro, Newbern, Wilson, Weldon, N.C., we met and addressed the business men and women in these respective localities, and before leaving either organized new Leagues, or did what we could toward renewing and strengthening those already established. For on the first of this month a company of our progressive men, composed of Messrs. R. B. Fitzgerald, John Merrick, C. C. Spaulding, J. E. Shepard and others associated, started a new bank with 'an authorized capital of ten thousand dollars all paid in; the first day they opened, over two thousand dollars were received on deposit. This bank is in a new building on a street called Parrish, in which there is also a new drug store with authorized capital of ten thousand dollars, a tailoring establishment, finely equipped barber shop, a nice cafe, and the largest Negro insurance company in the world — the Carolina Mutual and Provident Company. Here in this one block in Durham these business men have invested more than one hundred thousand dollars, and carry on business that stretches out over a number of the Southern States. What these men of the race have accomplished in Durham I am satisfied could be duplicated in more than one other place we have visited, could our people of means be persuaded to eliminate their selfishness and try to cultivate and foster a broader public-spirit for the welfare of each and all. From all of the places we have mentioned in this letter a large number of delegates will attend next week the annual session of the National League. From the Scientific American. A Westminster peal of bells weighing seven tons is to be hung in the uppermost gallery of the great tower of the Metropolitan Life Insurance, Building, which is now fast nearing completion in New York city. The gallery in question is on the forty-sixth floor. The bells will be placed between white marble pillars, against which the deep bronze of the bell's will be visible. Instead of suspending the bells in the usual way upright supports will be used. Automatic clappers will strike the quarter hour. The largest of the bells will weigh seven thousand pounds, and will measure seventy inches across its mouth. It will be toned to B flat, and will be used to strike the hours as well as to take part in the general choir. The second bell, an E flat, will weigh three thousand pounds; the third, an F natural, will weigh two thousand pounds, and the fourth, a G, will weigh fifteen hundred pounds. The bells will be rung at rather more than twice the height of any other peal in the world.

Kleinertz THE GEM DOUBLE COVERED Klimots BEST OF PZATHKA WOODT WASHABLE Klimots 2019 THE PICNIC LUNCH REALLY THE STAR FEATURE OF DAY'S OUTING. Proper Arrangement and Packing of Food Necessary If One Would Have the Feast Tempting and Palatable. Too much luggage spoils the picnic, and yet the little feast is the star feature of the day. How, then, to carry enough to eat, and at the same time have it look tempting? There is a hamper made of lightweight wicker and yet strong enough to stand the wear of many outings in the woods. A telescope shape is easy to handle and its size can be regulated to fit the contents so readily that the woman who thinks ahead and of the party's return is sure to choose this style Instead of the square or oblong hamper made after the fashion of the English tea basket. Straw cases for bottles, cups, and glasses are superior in many ways to leather ones. The lighter covering may not wear so well as the others, but it looks much cooler. Hamper fittings can be bought separately and tucked away in a plain basket, and if well packed no danger of breakage need be feared. Wooden plates are really much more picnicky than china. If sandwiches and cakes are placed on plates when the basket is being arranged and each one is wrapped first in a napkin wrung out in ice water, then in baker's or paraffine paper the food will be kept perfectly fresh, and it can be placed at once on the picnic table when the time for luncheon has arrived. Lettuce leaves that have been packed loosely in a linen bag thoroughly dampened with ice water will help to give the luncheon table a fresh, cool and inviting air and they can be used to garnish the plates of cold meats and salads. This is an excellent way to carry green salads, and if the dressing is made just before starting and carried in a bottle, or the ingredients packed so that the dressing can be mixed by the salad expert while the luncheon is being spread out, the salad will be fresh and crisp. Tiny cones of salt and pepper, one packet for each member of the party, are easier to carry and much less trouble than to take along a set of shakers. There are such perfect ways now of carrying hot or cold liquids and keeping them at their original temperature that few picnic parties bother with making tea or coffee at the p 8va FINE.

Plates and cups can be kept on the ice for a while before they are tucked away in the hamper and they will stay cold for some time. Tinned and bottled foods are best taken in small lots so that they can be opened as needed and the empty boxes or bottles thrown away at once. Having a number of things in this way does away with passing the food from one end of the table or luncheon cloth to the other. Paper napkins are good enough for the average outdoor function of this kind. They should, however, be supplied in quantities so that they may be used for covering the plates, for wiping off dust and for cleaning the dishes after the meal is over. Muskmelon Frappe Remove enough of the tops of small nutmeg melons so as to be able to take out the seeds and membrane, then scoop out as much of the soft pulp as can be removed. Cut the pulp into small pieces. Drain the juice from seeds and membrane and add it to one quart of whipped cream, sweetened. Put into freezer and turn until stiff. When ready to serve take the chilled shells, place the frappe cream in alternate layers with the melon pulp, having the frappe as last layer. Serve on small plates with cake. Gateau of Cherries Dissolve two heaping tablespoonfuls of powdered gelatine in half a cup of boiling water. Put three heaping tablespoonfuls of sugar, one cupful of cold water, rind and strained juice of one lemon into a saucepan, boll for 20 minutes, strain, add a few drops of red coloring, one teaspoonful of vanilla extract, one pound of stoned cherries and gelatine. Mix well and pour into a wet mold. Turn out when set. Breaded Pork Chops. Make dressing same as for fowl, only season highly with apples, celery and onions. Take baking pan, put any drippings in bottom; heat; put in dressing, then lay pork chops on top of same and bake in oven. When chops are cooked on one side turn over. When done remove to a warm platter, garnish with parsley, add more drippings, thicken for gravy, and pour over all. Delicious Salad. Boll one cup red kidney beans in salted water until soft. Drain, add one cup English walnuts or peanuts, slightly broken, one cup chopped celery, and about six olives cut fine.

Death from Fever, Poison and Animals, or Captivity in the Jungle Lurk, But in the End the Finest Hunting in the World. Oyster Bay, N. Y.—President Roosevelt's hunting trip to East Africa which is planned for next year, will decrease the presidential savings some $20,000 to $25,000 at a low estimate, but, inasmuch as Mr. Roosevelt already has been offered more than ten times that amount for his story of the trip, to be written upon his return, it isn't worrying the family banker. What is concerning all the Roosevelt family and the close friends of the president may be summed up as "things that might happen on that trip." It is no small matter, this 20,000 miles' journey to the wildest section of the world, where big game is as populous as it has come to be scarce in the "won west." It isn't so much the lions, elephants, and their associates that are being feared, although the element of danger they always present contains the essential sest of hunting with any true sportsman. But there are many other enemies of human life, which the president will have to encounter and subdue. The journey to the east coast of Africa will be one of the most wonderful pilgrimages a man of the western world might take. The president will pass through seas and stralts which alone could have washed away the homes of history they have seen written. He will come into contact with customs and people by far the most interesting in the world, and finally, as a sort of guardon for his wandering, the traveler will reach Zanzibar (a place which merits its name, Paradise). It has been called the most interesting 15 square miles in the world, and INDIAN OCEAN MORNITQUE CHANNEL MORNISVAP. East Africa, Where the President Will Hunt. appears to merit the description. In its scant area the flotsam and jetsam of the eastern world has gathered. It contains, shoulder to shoulder, in its heterogenous people and life, the elements of the finest culture, the deepest ignorance, morality, degeneracy, vice and virtue, more fantastically interwoven into the life of the place than anywhere else in all the world. Here the president will get his supplies, guides, servants, porters and other blacks who will be his companions on the hunt. From Zanzibar he goes to the chief city of English East Africa and from there plunges into the vast, silent, disease-breeding jungle, where a white man goes with the assurance that death, multiform, persistent and horrible, lurks in every thicket and stream and tree; a place where the chances of living are reduced to the ultimate natural minimum Preceded by his blacks, and followed by more of the same, bearing the rather imposing luggage of the expedition, and, in bad weather, the head of the expedition in a hammock, the president will enter a world vastly different from anything he has ever seen. The president will not have proceeded far before rebellion will break out in his train. This kind, however, is more easily settled than miners' strikes, and all may be well. Then he may be overtaken and captured by a native prince, who will require beads, wire, brass and the like to keep him from devoting his distinguished guest to glutting his appetite. Upon finding that his visitor is the lats head of a great government, the chief will even become solicitous, send around a few buckets of stinking native beer, even some pellets of bhang, that the president may dream the dream of the hashish eater, and as a last mark of courtesy demand that the president marry a couple or more of his dusky belles. The diplomacy of Mr. Roosevelt will have to be relied upon in this extremity. In the end, all these perils having been safely passed, Mr. Roosevelt will reach the happiest hunting grounds in all the world, where he may shoot lions, hippopotamil, specimens of the buffalo, rhinoceros, bok, etc., till his ammunition runs out or something happens.

We still have a large collection of superb Diamonds which we bought a considerable time ago at lower prices than prevail today. We shall not advance prices on these stones. We are merchants and not speculators, and our fair percentage of p is all we ask. So, as long as these Diamonds last, it will be possible to buy them here under the regular market for W.Sidney Arch RENDERING IN MONOTONE, WATER COLOR AND PEN & INK STEEL CONSTRUCT Phone: Main 6059-M. Office W.SidneyPittman Architect Make frames 12 inches square and four inches deep from any pieces of board at hand, or get a box from the grocer and split it up for the purpose. Set a frame over each hill of cucumbers or melons, and cover with a piece of glass. Amateur photographers who have spoiled negatives on hand can clean them in hot water and use them for this purpose by tacking a couple of cross sticks over the top of the frame to serve as rests for the small glasses. This protects your vines while the first leaves are forming, which is the time to look out for bugs. The glass, of course, must be removed to let in air and moisture at the proper times. By this method one can start much earlier than usual and be sure of protection from frost as well as bugs. Many housewives have been annoyed by the cloudy, blue-gray look which so often appears on mahogany pianos and other pieces of highly polished furniture. For removing such an appearance one woman has very successfully used a solution composed of a tablespoonful of vinegar in a quart of clear water. This applied with a cheesecloth rag, first saturated and then wrung out as dry as possible. The furniture is rubbed very lightly with this and is then polished just as lightly with a dry piece of cheesecloth. If the first application is not successful it may be tried again in a week. By following the method given below you can always have crisp, fresh lettuce and rarely lose a leaf. As soon as it comes from the grocery plunge it into cold water. The pan must be large and deep enough to cover it entirely and give it room to swell. After about six hours wash it off under cold water; wrap it lightly in a damp towel, put it into a fruit basket—I use a grape basket without top or handle—and set it on the shelf of the refrigerator. It will keep for three or four days and be ready for use at once.—Chicago Tribune.

Blackberry Froth as a Luncheon Dainty—Recipes for Wine and Corndial—Serve Jelly with Whipped Cream. Blackberry Froth.—Whites of four eggs, one cupful of blackberry juice, two cupfuls of boiling water, one cupful of cold water, one-half box of gelatine, one cupful of sugar. Soak the gelatine in the cold water for one hour, stir the sugar into it and pour the boiling water over them. When they are dissolved add the blackberry juice, strain and set on the ice until the jelly is nearly firm. Beat the whites of the eggs stiff and whip into the jelly a little at a time. Turn into a mold wet with cold water and let it stand until firm. Serve with cream. Blackberry Wine.—Fill a stone jar with ripe berries and cover with water. Tie a cloth over the jar and let stand for four days to ferment; then mash the berries and strain through a cloth. Add three pounds of brown sugar to every gallon of juice; cover and skim them every morning until clear of fermentation; pour this off carefully from the sediment into a demijohn, cork and set in a cool place. This will be ready to use in two months. Blackberry Cordial. — Add two pounds of loaf sugar to one gallon of blackberry juice, a tablespoonful each of ground cloves and allspice, two nutmegs grated and a teaspoonful of ground cinnamon. Boll slowly for about 30 minutes, remove from fire and let cool; add a pint of good French brandy, then bottle. Blackberry Jelly.—Take one quart of berry juice and when it comes to a boll add to it a half box of soaked gelatine, one cupful of sugar and stir over the fire until gelatine dissolves. This will take only a few minutes. Strain into a mold and set away until hardened. Serve this with whipped cream. Blackberries Preserved.—Do not use fruit that is too ripe, weigh and put into glass jars, filling each one two-thirds full. Put one pound of sugar in a saucepan and one cupful of water to every two pounds of fruit, and let it come slowly to a boll. Pour this syrup hot into the jars over the berries, filling them to the brim. Place the jars in a boiler containing cold water and let the water come to a boll, end when the fruit is scalding hot take out the jars and cover them airlight. Blackberry Pudding.—Take two cupfuls of stale bread crumbs soaked in two cupfuls of milk, a little salt and three eggs beaten well. Take one and one-half cupfuls of sifted flour and stir into it half a teaspoonful of baking powder; add one and one-half pints of blackberries. Put into a buttered pudding dish and steam for two hours. Serve with a rich sauce. BETWEEN G & H onds. No Bet today. fine stones. Ladies' Diamond Rings, $5.00 to $150.
