Mother's Doll Story
The Party
Once upon a time all the dolls In the
nursery decided to have a party. But
upstairs was the nicest place for a
party upstairs In the garret where real
folks never came.
Now how do you think the dolls ever
! got up to the attic?
I Why, they rode on the hacks of tho
j animal crackers, of course.
; "Gee up!" said the paper doll to the
I cracker elephant If you have never
been to the circus and ridden on the
elephant'B buck you don't know what
! fun It Is to ride there.
"Whoa!" cried the nigger doll to the
zebra. Just then the zebra kicked up
and almost tossed the nigger doll over
his head.
Next came the rubber dol; astride the
wild pig's back, and after that the wax
doll followed on a side saddle that the
cracker dog had fixed upon the giraffe.
Oh, It was a Jolly band of dolls that
trudged up the duBty attic stairs, you
may believe.
They danced and they sang, and
while the poor animal crackers were
taking a nap they ate up tho crumbs
of a cracker kitten that had got step
ped on while coming up the stairs
Just before tho snn arose tbey all
trudged softly back to the nursery and
got into their places again.

Two Simple Methods of
Canning Fresh Meat
Method 1. Free the meat from the
bone and cut it In pieces of such a size
that tbey will go Into the Jure easily.
Pack the raw meat solidly into tested :
clean glass Jars, filling the Jars to with
in three-fourths of an Inch from the
top. Sprinkle over the top of the meat
half a toaspoonful of salt for each pint
of meat. Add no water. Celery leaves,
onion, pepper or other seusontugs may
be added if desired. Adjust on the jar
a new rubber of good quality. Place
the cover on tho top of the Jur and ad
Just, but do not fasten, tho upper wire
clamp, or if a mason Jar Is used partly
screw on the cover. Place the Jars on a
rack in a tightly covered container, such
as a wash boiler or a sap bucket in
which there Is warm water that reaches
to within about an inch from the tops .
of the Jars. Storlllze the meat by cook- '
lng It for from four to five hours, be-'
ginning to count tho time when the wa
ter around tho jars reaches the boiling
point. A steam cooker is particularly
convenient for this purpose and a pres
sure canner reduces the. sterilization
period, but a wash boiler or a sap buck
et answers the purpose satisfactorily.
Before romovlug the cans from the
sterilizer complete the sealing of each
jar by adjusting the lower wire of the
clamp jor' by screwing tho top tight
Keep the Jars in a cool, dark place.
Method 2. Sear tbo meat in a hot
oven, in hot fut or in boiling water,
and steam It or simmer It until It can
bo torn apart. Pack the meat Into the
Jars, fill the spnee with stock and add
half a :teaspooiiful of salt to each pint
of meat. Sterilize the meat for three
hours as in method 1. Unless the meat
Is first browned It does not have so good
a flavor as that of raw meat steamed

Neatnesa Made Him Senator.
A former member of the United
States senate nays In the American
Magazine:
"The luiliit of neatness had grown
upon me. I know now that it had a
great Inlhietico on my entire future
career. 1 got so that I couldn't bear
tho sight of a fly speck. When not
waiting on customers I busied myself
polishing glasses or scrubbing the
counter. I saw to It that everything
about the place glistened with Its spot
less cleanliness. We had big glass
domes which we used as covers for
cakes. I kept these so bright and
shining as to excite comment by trav
eling men. due of my diitlOH was to
prepare the hum sandwiches. I care
fully cut uwny nil the fat, and people
got to lilting my sandwiches better
than those served nt other stations."
Through this habit of neatness this
mon won the start In Ufa that ulti
mately landed hlui In the United States
senate.
