THE BEE WASHINGTON VOL. XXIX NO12 Rev. Corrothers Sermon THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE NEGRO IN THE SOLUTION OF THE RACE PROBLEM. Text—Isaiah lxvi, 10-11. His watchmen are blind; they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving slumber. 11—Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter. Come ye, say they, I will fetch wne and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, a day great beyond measure. 1. — According to the spirit and the teaching of the word of God, there is no phase of human responsibility to which the ministry is exempted; but, to the contrary, the minister more than any other individual member of society, is held responsible for the deeds of the people. The prophet informs us that if the people are taken away in their sins and we have not forewarned them, their blood will be required at our hands In view of this fearful responsibility, it is better that every minister in our land stand up and speak the things that under God he believes to be right, regardless of the favors or frowns of the people. It must be remembered that it is not only our duty to preach to the people of the enjoyments of the world to come, but we must preach upon the qualifications necessary to make them desirable citizens of this life. 2. It is our duty to impress upon the colored man first of all that individual character and devotion to the laws of honesty, industry and obedience to God depends their standing in this world and the world to come. There is a law inherent in creation that we get out of society just about what we contribute. As with an individual, so with a nation; from nothing, nothing comes. There is absolutely nothing in the names of the various denominations, neither in various political parties. We must turn ourselves to the study of the principles involved and the character of the men who advocate them. 3. Is there anyone who holds that the minister should not preach upon the sacredness of the home as the foundation of society? No: I doubt whether you can find a man so ignorant as to criticise the minister for preaching upon the importance of God-feating fathers and sanctified motherhood as being the foundation not only of the State, but of the Church of God itself; and this race will never take its place side by side with the other races that make up this cosmopolitan civilization until the Negro is brought to realize that a well-ordered, virtuous home is the foundation of Christian civilization. 4. — Is there anyone who holds that the minister should not preach upon the importance of moral, intellectual and industrial training on the part of our people? A minister that takes no interest in the moral, intellectual and industrial uplift of his people is a curse to that people and a disgrace to the holy calling. The great mjaority of our people are directly or indirectly under the influence of the ministry, and until this race can rid itself of those ministers who preach about nothing but long white robes and golden slippers there is but little hope; but when from every Negro pulpit the blessings of home, industry, intelligence and freedom shall by precept and by example be held constantly before our people we may expect to see this race reach the goal. 5. — Is there anyone who holds that the minister should not advise his people with reference to their political interest? If so, I would like to ask if the Negro's citizenship is not a matter of politics? Was it political parishes that conferred the right of citizenship upon the Negro of this country, or was it a Sunday School convention or a Christian Endeavor meeting? Every intelligent American citizen must admit that the Negro is a creature of politics, and if it had not been for the great political struggle that led to the division of the country, the black man would have been a slave today. We own much to agitators of political opinions or the past, and our future depends upon the political independence of the present. 6. — Men of God must be fearless. We are face to face with the most important period in the history of our race in this country. In twelve States in this Union we are disfranchised, Jim Crowed, and subjected to many insults that are almost intolerable, and the question arises, What shall we do to be saved? For forty years we have been taught to confide wholly and to follow without controversy the Republican leaders, but I regret to say that after all these years of devotion, we find ourselves betrayed, deserted, bound hand and foot and left to the mercies of the men we have been taught were our enemies. Before us stand forty years of unfaithfulness on the part of the Republican leaders: Brownsville, standing like smoking Sinai, lily-whiteism, spreading itself over the hope of the Negro like the blackness of the darkness of Egypt. 6. — Thank God, one star of hope remains. From every section of this broad land the news comes that if the Negro is to break away from political slavery and to become an independent American citizen, voting for men and measures rather than political parties, the door of opportunity shall be open to him. I desire to call attention to the editorial appearing in the Columbia State, one of the leading newspapers in the South. It reads as follows:: "So far as this paper is concerned Negroes are welcome to the Democratic party. When we open the door to the Negro we follow the leadership of Alexander Stephens and John B. Gordon, of Georgia; Wade Hampton and Richardson, of South Carolina; Zeb Vance and Matt Ransom, of North Carolina. "All who know the South must acknowledge that the State is in pretty respectable company." As a further evidence of the wisdom of our policy, we invite your attention to the advice taken from the writings of Booker T. Washington in the Evening Star of April 10, 1899. Booker T. Washington, answering the request of a prominent colored man in North Carolina as to what should be done to allay the "present conflict between the races," says: "I have been asking myself lately some serious questions, and I want to put one or two of them to you. Is there any reason why the Negroes in the South should continue to oppose the Southern white man and his politics? Is not this the source of nearly all the trouble?" "Unconsciously we seem to have gotten the idea into our blood and bone that we are only acting in a manly way when we oppose Southern white men with our votes. In some way, by some method, we must bring the race to the point where it will cease to feel that the only way for it to succeed is to oppose everything suggested or put forth by the Southern white man. This I consider one of our real problems. I believe that there are thousands of white Democrats in North Carolina who are fifty percent better friends to the Negro than Governor Russell. I see no necessity in continuing to follow Governor Russell, who has no power to protect, or if he has the power does not exert it, rather than these other white men who can protect us if we cease continually and forever to oppose them." Booker Washington says in his book, "The Future of the American Negro," page 138: "So long as the color line is the dividing line in politics, so long will there be trouble. The white man feels that he owns most of the property, furnishes the Negro most of the employment, thinks he pays most of the taxes, and has had years of experience in government.

Foraker here openly say today that he will accept the challenge thrown down by the Taft faction in their decision not to invite him to speak at the opening of the national Republican campaign at Youngstown, Ohio, on September 5. The bold move of the Taft element came as a surprise, as Senator Foraker for the past twenty-five or more years has always been one of the central figures in the political openings in this State. No surprise ATTORNEY L. M. A Distinguished Elk, and one of the the Local Bar. A Recent Benedict is expressed at the action including Senator Dick in the Foraker turn-down because it is generally recognized that Dick is in the race for a second term in the Senate. The action sharply draws the line in the fight to secure a Legislature which will elect a successor to Senator Foraker, and it is said here that Arthur Vorys or Congressman Burton, of Cleveland, is in line for Foraker's seat in the Senate. Burton, however, is understood to want some big foreign ambassadorship in case of Taft's election, so the field will be clear for Vorys. Foraker's friends here say that he will open his fight to secure the Legislature at once, and that he recognizes that no compromise will now be made by Taft insuring Foraker a return to the Senate. In other words, the plan is to "eliminate" Foraker from Ohio politics if possible. The situation presages the most bitter fight this fall in Ohio in fifty years. Taft's friends declare that Foraker could not be allowed to speak at the opening because he would be sure to attack President Roosevelt's policies and, therefore, the best plan was to turn him down completely except to invite him to be present. Foraker no doubt will take the invitation as adding insult to injury and refuse to attend the opening. There were 1,855,941 Bibles distributed in 1907, in many countries. At Fitchburg, Mass., persons who drink are only allowed one drink, and that for refreshment. This rule applies to all saloons. The richest Indian in the world is Lon Hill, of Harlingen, Texas.

When his family and the heads of the local church were asked about his death they responded that "He has gone to sleep." It is reported that wife abandonment is on the increase in Chicago. Many editors, representing newspapers in the different sections of the United States, attended the twenty-third annual convention of the National Editorial Association, which convened at St. Paul, Minn.

A Few Facts Concerning the Tremendous Growth of This Insurance Company. Has Three Hundred Thousand Policy Holders. From the Durham (N. C.) Recorder. It was five years ago, in the year of 1903, that James E. Shepard sowed the seed that is today reaping an abundant harvest in the insurance field. At that time he founded the Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, which is now one of the leading insurance companies in this State. During the first year succeeding its establishment the company issued about four thousand policies, but today there are thirty thousand members of this company, all of them carrying life insurance policies. These figures show that the company has made rapid progress in its short life, and there is no telling how greatly it may develop in the future. Quite appropriate and convincing of its strength is the motto of the company, "Prudence! Strength! Frugality!" At present they occupy practically all of the second floor of Fitzgerald Building on West Main street, and several of the office rooms are being repapered and nicely fitted up. In these offices they give employment to nine clerks and two stenographers. Besides these there are one hundred and eighty agents confined to this State and three traveling men that go anywhere in the Union. G. W. Powell is the general manager, and has charge of all these employees. Back of this company there are a host of prominent and well-to-do colored men who are the officers and directors of the company. The officers are as follows: Prof. W. G. Pearson, president; James E. Shepard, first vice president; S. H. Vick, second vice president; J. A. Dodson, secretary and treasurer. All of the officers are members of the board of directors, but besides these there are a few others as follows: John G. Dancy, Recorder of Deeds, Washington,D. C.; W. P. Burrell, Richmond, Va., and H. E. Hagans,Goldsboro. Thus you see the company is in excellent shape, and under the direction of men who understand the business. The reserve funds are invested in real and personal property. We are glad to see this insurance company in such good condition, and hope for it as great success in the future as has been its fortune to have since its birth five years ago.

We present to our readers this week a brief sketch of the life of L. Melendez King, a young attorney of the District Bar. Mr. King has been engaged in the practice of law since the spring of 1899, during which time he has figured in important cases, both civil and criminal. He is highly respected by both the Bench and the Bar of the District and has many warm personal friends among the people of all classes in this city and elsewhere. He seems to possess the happy faculty of making warm and lasting friends among the low as well as among those who stand in higher circles. He is chairman of the Trustee Board of the Berean Baptist Church, one of the leading colored churches of this city. H was employed by the Grand Lodge I. B. P. O. Elks of the World while he was in Chicago as a delegate from his lodge in August last, to incorporate that body in the District of Columbia, which work he has since performed and is now preparing to leave this week for St. Paul, Minnesota, on professional duties in connection with this incorporation. H has a reputation of being scrupulously honest in all his business dealings, and by this method he has succeeded in accumulating considerable of the world's goods for one of his age. A few months ago he was married to Miss Anna E. Johnson, an estimable young lady, formerly one of the public school teachers of Washington. The union from all appearances is happy and joyful. Mr. King regards his wife as possessing qualities and characteristics which will aid him greatly in his future business undertakings. She is blessed with great common sense, and he is glad to take her counsel. While he does not engage in public speaking very often, still he is regarded as an orator of no mean ability and has been invited to make speeches on various occasions. A short time ago he delivered an address at Harmony Cemetery on Decoration Day, which was printed far and wide, his cut on that occasion appearing in the "Washington Star." He has fitted out a beautiful home at 1907 Thirteenth street northwest, which home he owns as a result of his labors in connection with his profession. He is not ostentatious, nor does he court fame, but in a quiet, unassuming manner he continues to "saw wood," and a future for him is looked forward to. Attorney King is not only a successful civil lawyer, but he is a man of letters. No man enters the court with better prepared papers than Attorney King. In the recent Democratic convention in West Virginia the following excerpt is from its platform, with an indorsement of William Jennings Bryan. "Believing that the extension of the elective franchise to a race inferior in intelligence and without preparation for the wise and prudent exercise of a privilege so vital to the maintenance of good government was a mistake, if not a crime, committed by the Republican party during the reign of passion and prejudice following the Civil War, for political ends and purposes, we declare that the Democratic party is in favor of so amending the Constitution as to preserve the purity of the ballot and the electorate of the State from the evil results from conferring such power and privilege upon those who are unfitted to appreciate its importance as it affects the stability and preservation of good government. "We favor the enactment of a law requiring common carriers engaged in passenger traffic to furnish separate coaches or compartments for white and colored passengers." Mr. Bryan's telegram: "I greatly appreciate the cordial indorsement given by your Convention, and share with you in the hope that the hearty co-operation promised may insure a Democratic victory in West Virginia and the National Convention. ee ep “se : = "E 3," “es FRU _6h6on TABLE DELICACIES DISHES THAT ART WORTH ANN ING TO THE DAILY MENU.

Close the door leading into the Kitchen to keep the odor of the cook- ing 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 partlal- ly opened, and allow tho breezé to blow through the wet cloths unt! they are dried.

HA$ 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 porcelains, a quiet, slim, 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. ```markdown ``` "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 a lively headlines as any in the middle west. Baseball interests him equally with Gainsboroughs and Sir Joshua. He owns a large interest in the Cincinnati 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 reforter 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. JOHN H. BURKE 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 Hledelberg, 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 sinister "interest," and smiled over it and bought another china jar. In matters of music and art, Cincinnati 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 twentleth 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 connolseur. 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 H is willing to have fame in ' family, but it must all descend on ' on her From the day that the e' ' the saw the gift of Will for r ' she are for dictating in an c ' analysis of a bundle c ' that younger brother h ' being assing all the c ' always been try- t ' lead to oppor- tion t ' Will was s ' cl ' in travelling hims- New York the Venice of America.

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 shone at her dinner, and she only keeps one mald. I asked her how she did it, and she sald 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 chamols. "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 butler 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 Pure Has Been Prepared. Half a pint of apricot purée, half a cupful of cream, three whites of eggs, 1½ 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 piled 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 flies, 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 slurp 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 Cups with Macaroni If veal or mutton is left over in scant quantities for a meal, boil 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 pint 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—Figs 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.—Stew 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 courrants 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 clinnamon 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.

Slew until quite thick, strain and bottle. Cherry Brown Betty.—Put a layer of pitted 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 boiler 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 aspic jelly, pastry and lettuce.

Serve ice cold in glasses with candied cherries. Lerman Sherbet. Use four cups water, two cups sugar. one tablespoonful gelatin Dissolve gelatin in part of the water, the sugar in the balance, mix thoroughly, and freeze. 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. Boil the juice and the sugar to a very thick slurp. Put the cherries in this slurp and let them slimmer—not boll—for ten minutes. Then set them away in the slurp until the next day. The next morning take the cherries out of the slurp and put in a deep dish. Let the slurp boil up once and pour over the cherries. This should be done for three mornings. On the fourth morning boil the slurp almost to the thickness of candy, dip the cherries in and let them get thoroughly coated. It en place them separately on flat dishes and dry. German Cherry Ple—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 dalny 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, hazelnut 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 gibbets 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. Boil 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 sift 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 boll and smother for 20 minutes. Skim, put into jam pots, and at the end of 24 hours cover and put away. Coffee Franne 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 Pie. One cup sugar, a pinch of salt, a sprinkling of cinnamon, one tablespoon flour. Take half of each of the ingredients and spread on under crust and the other half on rhubarb. DISHES THAT TEMPT DAINTIES FOR THE LUNCHEON OR I KFAST. Wheat Gems and 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 soinkle with grated cheese and a litte 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, babies' sacques, leggings and afghans —in fact, all garments knitted or crocheted—of wool is to sow 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 ammonia 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 Fail Because inferior ingredients are used, such as rancid butter, inferior sugar, damp flour, and doubtful 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 is 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 hereln 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 ralsins 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, rub 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 moistened 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 roats 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 IS HOT.

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 screw eyes. Put a screw eye on each side of the ash 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."—Delineator. Chocolate Molasses Taffy. One cup of sweet milk.

The editor of the Boston Guardian, Mr. William Monroe Trotter, has seen fit from time to time to throw a few of his scurrilous flings at the editor of The Bee. His Washington correspondent, who is known to The Bee, is too cowardly to come from under cover and sign his name to his weekly letters to that paper. The Bee has been fair to them both, and in many instances The Bee has defended them against the many assaults made upon them. Mr. Trotter's first advent in public affairs was at Louisville, Ky., when the Afro-American Council refused him and his delegation admittance to the counsels of that body. He was forced to leave the scene of action and retire to the shades of Boston, Mass., where he and his cohorts charged Mr. Book-T. Washington with having kept them out. From that day Mr. Trotter made personal attacks upon Mr. Washington until he and his satellites were repudiated by the intelligent citizens of Boston, Mass., Mr. Trotter appealed to The Bee frequently to help him and attack the president of Tuskegee, saying among other things that anything The Bee would say in behalf of Mr.Washington would be used against him and be a help to Editor Fortune, who was at the time attacking the Rev. Ransom at the time his (Ransom's) conduct South became public property. The Bee has never seen fit to follow Mr. Trotter in his mad and insane policy against Mr. Washington and Tuskegee. The Bee will not tell all it knows and the motives that prompted Mr. Trottier Washington until it is forced to do in his many vile attacks upon Mr. so. Does the Editor of the Guardian deny the charge of The Bee? Does his Washington correspondent dare to deny that The Bee is in possession of facts and documents to verify what it charges? The Guardian would have its readers to believe that its support of Mr. Bryan and the Democratic party is from he is too righteous and patriotic to receive one cent from the Democratic party. How much money has Mr. Trotter asked the Democratic committee to give him for his paper? Will honest and pure motives, and that Secretary Taft was not responsi MR. TAFT AND DR. WASHINGTON. ble for the issuing of the famous order discharging the colored soldiers, and he revoked the order without consulting the president. Dr. Bocker T. Washington appealed to the President to revoke the order of dismissal. Dr. Washington has always been loyal to the colored Americans, and so far as Mr. Taft is concerned The Bee has every reason to believe that the colored Americans, as well as the entire country, will prosper and he deny that he has not asked for money to relieve his financial wants. The Bee awaits with patience a reply. succeed under his administration. Secretary Taft is not an enemy of the colored man, and when his religion is made the basis of attack The Bee is confident that the opposition is like a man gasping for breath under water. Mr. Taft was appealed to by the entire American nation, and in response to that appeal to revoke the order of dismissal the order was suspended and the President consulted. The President said No.What was Mr. Taft to do. Dr. Booker T. Washington was loyal to the colored Americans, and he appealed to the President to stay his hand. The Bee has never believed that the colored soldiers were guilty of any offense. President Roosevelt was wrong, and existing conditions have established the innocence of the colored soldiers. If President Roosevelt was a candidate for the presidency the colored voter would have cause to vote against him. No person should suffer for the acts of another. Why should Dr. Washington be made a victim of abuse on account of the President's action? Why should Mr. Taft be condemned and the Democratic party applauded when every Democrat in the Senate voted against the Foraker bill? Where is the consistency of the colored man? He must be either a fool or a jackass. SOMETIMES CALLED LIEUTENANT. The Boston Guardian of a week ago contained a communication from a man in this city who is sometimes called lieutenant, attempting to defend the position of ex-Register J. W. Lyons in the case of an officer who unjustly placed him (Lyons) under arrest. This sometimes called lieutenant came to this city a few years ago from Tennessee with a bushel of endorsements for the position of Auditor for the Navy Department, but, like the Minister to Dahomey, he landed as a common laborer. This individual was a laborer under Mr. Lyons, and no man abused Lyons more than he. If The Bee was disposed to put in print what he said about Mr. Lyons and Mr. Vernon when he was after promotion, it would make the readers of The Bee blush. Not a citizen in this city would indorse the position that Mr. Lyons assumed before the Trial Board that tried the officer, and The Bee is of the opinion that Mr. Lyons was ashamed of his own attitude toward the officer. If he was not, The Bee is confident that the people were. In another column of The Bee will be seen an excerpt from the Durham, (N. C.,) Recorder, a journal published at Durham, N.C. This excerpt shows what colored Americans are doing in the South to elevate themselves in the way of business. The colored men North, in Boston, especially on the order of Mr. William Monroe Trotter are doing nothing but finding fault with the progressive colored men South. This excerpt, to which The Bee calls attention of its readers, speaks in glowing terms of the Mutual Life Insurance Company, which is one of the leading companies in the South, and far superior to any in the North. The progress of colored Americans South is an object-lesson to the Northern failures. Is Timothy Thomas Fortune editing the New York National Review? Curiously enough, the politicians hereabouts that talk the most have no vote anywhere. The department clerks who wish to contribute to the campaign fund will be careful not to go over the $10,000 limit set by one of the candidates. The Negro vote in Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Kentucky can be made safe but it will require a systematic campaign of education to do it. The Washington Record is still unsold. The moment Dr. Lampton was chosen Bishop he dropped this burden as suddenly as if it had been a hot potato. As an example of "near-wit" the "Nodules" in the Horizon are the limit. "Over-Look" Murray ought to send a diagram showing where the humor comes in. Some men find it difficult to live down their past. The long-memoried public refuses to forget that Harry C. Smith, in his adolescent days, perpetrated a more or less musical composition entitled "Be True, Bright Eyes." If you think you would like to be assistant surgeon at Freedmen's Hospital, you should try your hand at the examination to be held September 2 and 3, under the regulations prescribed by the Civil Service Commission. They do things well out in Iowa. The Buxton Gazette, of Buxton, Iowa, is the only official county paper published by a colored man in that State. The editor, Rev. A. L. DeMond, has just signed a contract with the State officials for the State Fair advertising. When that Social Settlement ball game comes off, September 8, it will be worth the price of admission to see Recorder Dancy running for first base, Auditor Tyler pitching, Register Vernon sliding for the home plate, and Judge Terrell throwing in from center field. "We are seven."—The NegroAmericanNational Political League Up to this writing the Rev. J. Milton Waldron has neglected to give out the names of those rampant Administration leaders who have been trying to "intimidate" him. The selection of Dr. A. M. Curtis to perform the principal operations at the surgical clinic planned by the National Medical Association at its New York meeting on the 25th, is a compliment entirely merited by one of the race's greatest surgeons. It is again denied that Emmett J. Scott is to become superintendent of Freedmen's Hospital. To thus force upon the esteemed Washington correspondent of the Boston Guardian a free ticket of membership in the Ananias Club is positively an act of cruelty to animals. Howard University will have the largest enrollment in its history this year. President Thirkield is amply justifying all of the good things said of him when he made his advent upon our soil. The race's greatest institution for the higher education was never so prosperous as it is today. Hon. Louis A. Coolidge, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, is demonstrating his friendship for the colored race by interesting himself in their welfare and in seeing that justice is done them in the matter of promotion. With him merit knows no color, and deserving men receive their reward. Those of us who have been praising Frederick Douglass with our lips should not fail to show our appreciation of his matchless services by going to Washington Park on the 24th, and assisting in paying off that mortgage on the old homestead at Cedar Hill. Let us all have a hand in providing this splendid monument to the "Great Commoner." In the generous recognition received by the colored Republicans in the city of New York, the tact should not be overlooked that the lion's share of the credit for this happy state of affairs should be given to Charles W. Anderson. The genial Collector of Internal Revenue has "made good" and the nation will hear more from him as we go along. A vote for Bryan is a vote for the WestVirginia Democratic platform, which calls for the disfranchisement of the Negro and the segregation of the race in "Jim Crow" cars. Mr. Bryan stands on this platform. He dares not repudiate it. Can any self-respecting colored man, who takes thought of his own civic well-being, or who cares for the future of his children, vote for such reactionary measures? It looks as if the National Negro Fair, which is to be opened this fall at Mobile, Ala., is to be a big thing. President H. N. Newsome has broken ground for a $10,000 main exhibit building, and the remainder of the work will be pushed with vigor. A tangible showing of what the race is really doing will bring more results than all the loud-mouthed claims and hot-kair oratory we can put up between now and doomsday. Some idiot down in Mississippi is attempting to draw invidious comparisons between Dr. Washington's labors in connection with Tuskegee, and those of Isaiah T. Montgomery at Mound Bayou. Each town has its peculiar function, and a debate as to which is more useful to the race is about as profitable as the old-time argument as to the relative power of fire and water as an agent of destruction. Washington and Montgomery are both needed, and Tuskegee and Mound Bayou will continue to do their divinely appointed work according to the purpose which brought each into existence. The "stump" will be aflame after September 15. Among the giants who will hurl thunderbolts of rhetoric, logic and statistics into the souls of the expectant multitudes will be: John C. Dancy, P. B. S. Pinchback, J. C. Napier, Phil Waters, Nelson Crews, W. T. Vernon, Robert H. Terrell, Harry S. Cummings, R. T.Greener, Thomas L. Jones, John P. Green, Albert S. White, A. H. Roberts, J. Madison Vance, and a host of other spellbinders of equal power in emitting forensic effulgence.The race's most brilliant editors, correspondents, and special writers will also be on the firing line. Let us "get busy." There is no reason why Washington should not have a number of active hustling and result-producing local branches of the National NegroBusiness League. Our business interests are quite diverse: we live in widely separated districts, and there are policies of management that would appeal successfully to one section and yet prove unsatisfactory in another.After the Baltimore meeting, it is very likely that this question will be intelligently threshed out, with three or four prosperous local Leagues to stimulate the business sense of our hundred thousand Negro citizens. Rev Corrothers Sermon Continued from page 1. fact that the feeling which has heretofore governed the Negro — that to be manly and stand by his race, he must oppose the Southern white man with his vote — has had much to do with intensifying the opposition of the Southern white men to him." "We must recognize the worldwide fact that the Negro must be led to see and feel that he must make every effort possible, in every way possible, to secure the friendship, the confidence, the co-operation of his white neighbor in the South." 8. — The methods by which Mr. Taft was nominated were a disgrace to American civilization, and his election will prove a curse to the spirit of our free institution. Is he a friend to the colored citizen, and what does he stand for? He approves of disfrachisement laws of the South," conceding that the laws now in force in this State (North Carolina) and other parts of the South were intended either by their terms or by their mode of execution to exclue the ignorant colored voter from the franchise with rigor, and to allow the ignorant white voter, though actually unfitted for COMMONWEALTH PERSONAL BY MURDERING NEGROES WITH OUT JUDGE OF WAR THE SOUTH.

He praises Abraham Lincoln for opposing Negro suffrage. — Grand Rapids, February 13, 1908. He declares that the Fifteenth Amendment has been unsuccessful; that the disfranchisement of the Negro is better than "violent methods" and that the greatest friend the Negro is likely to have is the Southern white man, who knows his value to the South.—Kansas City, Mo., February 10, 1908. He also advises a division of the vote, as it wi'l take the responsibility of carrying the Negro and his ignorance off the shoulders of one political party. Mr. Taft's platform with reference ```markdown ``` THE LEGEND OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN to the Negro is simply this: Industrial education is all he is fit for; disfranchisement, a good thing; surrender to the demands of the white South, proper thing for the Negro to do; a good thing to discharge without honor; to condemn without trial 167 Negroes every now and again is perfectly in harmony with the spirit of our institution, and if I am elected president I will stand squarely upon these things.

VERNON MAKES GOOD IN THE WEST. Secures the Promotion of Two Ohioans — Continues the Good Work Amid the Plaudits of His Friends. Register W. T. Vernon, of the Treasury Department, has just returned from a ten days' visit to the West. When seen last night he was all smiles, while congratulations were being showered upon him from all sides. Many who were loath to recognize in him the coming leader have now practically conceded his force and influence. Ostensibly he went West to look over the political situation and to place himself in touch with the conditions that confront the Republican party in the West and Middle West States. His efforts at conciliation have been rewarded with success, and if he were able his entire time would be taken up by speech-making in all parts of the country from now until the end of the campaign; but his services have been placed in the hands of the National Committee. For the first time in many years we have at the Naton's Capital a man who is going to the front securing places and promotions for the Western boys and seeing that they come into their own. He is not saying much and there is no blare of trumpets announcing his approach, but the results tell for themselves. In the office of the Auditor for the War Department he found two prominent clerks from Ohio, whose services were highly commendable, but who, for the lack of concerted action upon the part of their friends, were unable to secure advancement. He took their cases up with the authorities, with the result that William H. Clifford, of Cleveland, Oho, was promoted to $1,400, and Charles W. Fillmore, of Springfield, Ohio, to $1,600, and transferred to the Marine Hospital Service. Now, isn't this going some? He realizes the necessity of individuality and manly qualities in demanding and obtaining justice for the worthy of the race. If he has just begun his efforts, what will be the result when he has finished? In a conversation with a friend a few days ago he said: "My work will not end with the tenure of my office, but I mean to continue to secure recognition for the race whenever and wherever the opportunity presents itself." Both men promoted are well known n Ohio, the former having served in the Legislature of Ohio, and the latter was for many years corporation clerk in the Secretary of State's office, and major of the Ninth Battalion. A MODEL APARTMENT HOUSE Erected by the Colored Laborers' Mr. Lewis' Constructive Work Designed by Architect Pittman. The Colored Laborers' Building and Loan Association of which M. J. W. Lewis is president was completed a beautiful flat of four living apartments near the corner of Eleven and U street northwest. The structure was designed by Architect V. Sidney Pitt and created by the members of the association. The property is worth nearly ten thousand dollars, and adds much to the appearance of the neighborhood. The association is that two years old and has four hundred members, made up of the masses, who conceived the idea that the way to accomplish large results was to combine their humble resources and put them into something tangible. The association owns a valuable lot north of the apart- There are 5,499 Negroes employed here in Washington by the Government alone, and these 5,499 Negroes draw salaries aggregating $3,044,404. These more than three millions of dollars are spent right here in Washington, but scattered among the hundreds of tradesmen. Is this amount of money worth bidding for? It certainly is, and not even the largest stores in this city would refuse to get the big end of it did they but realize how much money the Negroes are really spending. Now The Bee is the only Negro publication in this city. It stands without a rival or competitor, and covers the field like a blanket. If a few of the merchants in this city will patronize the advertising columns of The Bee, presenting the attractive bargains they may have, these Negroes — these 5,499 Negroes who draw annually from the Government over three millions of dollars — will assume that by patronizing a publication edited and operated by one of their race that such firms desire and deserve their patronage. And such firms will receive the bulk of these over three millions of dollars received and spent by the Negroes of Washington. What clothing stores, what furniture stores, what dry goods stores and what other lines of business will now make an effort to divert to themselves these over three millions of dollars spent by Washington Negroes by advertising in The Bee? Place your advertising in The Bee and watch these 5,499 appreciative Negroes spend their over three millions of dollars with you. Now is the time to advertise in The Bee, the newspaper that goes into every Negro home in Washington. Remember, merchants of Washington, it's what advertising pays you, not what it costs.

NEGROES WILL VOTE FOR TAFT. Prof. Scarborough Says There Is No serious Defection from Taft in Ohio Prof. W. S. Scarborough, president of the Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio, while in Washington, recently, en route to New York, declared that there would not be any serious defection of the Negro vote from Taft in Ohio, and he did not believe there would be any large movement against the Republican ticket on the part of the Negroes elsewhere. The Brownsville affair was not a political issue with the masses of colored folk, but Prof. Scarborough that there was a conviction among the Negroes that Senator Foraker should be returned to the Senate from Ohio and they were inclined to ask some assurances on this point. Prof. Scarborough was the guest here of the Rev. Dr. John Hurst, financial secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. "Mr. Taft's Republicanism is unquestioned, and his attitude on the race question has, I think, been misunderstood," said the Negro educator. "I am sure that between Taft and Bryan Mr. Taft is to be preferred a thousand times. If Mr. Bryan should make promises to the Negro he could not fulfil them, for his party would not permit him to do so."

Klimettz THE GEM Klinetts FEATHER WEIGHT WASHABLE 2 S JUNO 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 pr-coffee at the p 8va FINE.

A basket tray is well packed with edibles which have been properly chilled before starting seldom gets warm and mussy if it is handled carefully and kept out of the sun. 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. Delicicus Salada Boil one cup red kidrey, 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. Mix all together and serve on bed of lettuce with mayonnaise dressing.

Death from Fever, Poison and Animals, or Captivity in the Jungle Lurk, But in the End the Finest Hunting in the World. Oyster Eay, N. Y.—President Roosevelt's hunting trip to East Africa which is planned for next year, will decrease the presidential savings some $20,600 to $200 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 can'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 zest 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 straits which alone could have washed away the tomes 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 guerdon 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 BRITISH ISLANDS BRITISH ISLANDS BRITISH ISLANDS BRITISH ISLANDS BRITISH ISLANDS GERMAN ISLANDS GERMAN ISLANDS GERMAN ISLANDS MEDITERRANEAN CHANNEL MEDITERRANEAN CHANNEL MEDITERRANEAN CHANNEL INDIAN OCEAN 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, pestilent 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 game, 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 late 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, bck, etc., till his ammunition runs out or something happens.

Blackberry Froth as a Luncheon Daln- ty—Recipes for Wine and Condial—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, and when the fruit is scalding hot take out the jars and cover them airtight 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.

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. To Remove Blue of Furniture. 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.
