APPLIES ONLY TO CONSUMERS OF OUR
CURRENT.
Spider Corn Cake.
This is probably one of the best
rules for corn bread to be had. It
is one of Miss Parloa's recipes, but
is not especially well known. Measure
out t 2-3 cupftils of cornnreal, 1-3 a
cupful of flour, V cupful sugar and a
teaspoonful of salt. Sift all together
and add to them two egss which have
been beaten with a cupful of sour
milk and one of sweet milk. In which
a small teaspoon of soda has been dis
solved. Stir all thoroughly. Put one
or two teaspoon, of butter in a hot
spider on fire. When the butter has
been melted pour the batter Into the
spider, open the oven door and place
the spider on the lower shelf. Pour
another cupful of sweet milk into the
batter, but do not stir it at all. Now
shut the door and let the cake bake
without touching it for about twenty
minutes or half an hour in a quick
oven. When a rich brown and done
lift the cake out of the pan and place
on a large plate or cut into thick
slices In the pan, and serve hot with
butter. The peculiar feature of this
cake Is that it has streaks of creamy
consistency running through the
whole, especially near the lottom or
top. This makes it very delicious and
Is due to the cupful of milk added
at the last moment, Just before the
oven door is closed.
Permonge Pie.
Take a quart of milk, put It In a
skillet or stew pan, place on the stove
and let come to a boil. Then add to it
the yolks of three well beaten eggs;
four heaping tablespoons of sugar;
three or four tablespoons of corn
starch; add enough milk to make .a
thin batter. Then pour this mixture
slowly into the boiling milk, stirring
to prevent scorching. Continue to
stir until it has boiled three or four
minutes. Remove from the stove
and after it has cooled a little add
flavoring to suit taste. Pour into two
baked pie crusts, over these spread
the whites of three well beaten eggs
to which two tablespoons full of white
sugar has been added. Set them in
the oven until the whites have become
a golden brown.
Fried Green Tomatoes.
Slice them thin; place in Rait wa
ter for a short time; put on the frying
pan; have equal parts of lard and
butter. Roll the tomatoes in flour;
put them to fry; pepper them well,
FOR HER
FLAT-IRON
DAYS TRIAL
turn them over, and brown both sides.
Okra Soup.
Into a quart of chicken stock stir
two slices of corned ham, minced, a
chopped onlouand two down okra.
Add a pint of strained tomatoes and
boll all until the okra Is tender. Sea
son to taste and serve,
Sweet Pickles.
Peel the fruit peaches or pears
weigh them, and to every pound of
fruit allow half tKiund of sugar. Place
the fruit and sugar In alternnto lay
ers In a preserving kettle, bringing
slowly to the boil, and, for six pounds
of fruit allow a pint of vinegar spiced
with a tablespoonful each of ground
mace, cinnamon and cloves, each of
these spices being tied In a small
muslin bag. Pour the vinegar over
the fruit and boll for Ave minutes. At
the end of this time remove the fruit,
spread It on platters and boll the
syrup until thick, then pack the fruit
Into glass Jars, till to overflowing with
the syrup (from whtrh the spice bugs
have been removed) and seal. ,
To Preserve Cider.
Bring the cider to a boll in a coin
per kettle; remove all the scum that
rises on it. Have ready a good clean
barrel; pour the cider from the ket
tle while boiling hot Into the barrel,
then drive the bung in good nnd tight.
Do not remove the bung until the
cider Is wanted for use. I have kept
cider by this mode for one year, that
was as sweet when the barrel was
tapped as it was when put up. -
Baked Egg Plant.
Boil the whole egg plant in, salt
water for twenty minutes, halve It
witn a snarp mure, scoop oui mo cen
ters; chop and mix this portion with
bread crumbs, a little finely cut raw
tomato, chopped parsley, onion Juice
and seasonings. Refill the shells
with the mixture, cover with buttered
crumbs and bake for half an hour In
a hot oven.
For an Insipid Melon.
When the breakfast melon proves
insipid, as often Is the case when
purchased In city markets, don't try
to eat it then, but put on Ice and
serve at luncheon as a salad. Take
out the ripest pieces, cut In blocks
about the size of an English walnut,
arrange on a bed of lettuce or water
cress and dress with a French dress
ing made of lemon Juice and oil In
stead of vinegar.
Washing White Ribbon.
White ribbon can always be success
fully washed In soap and water. It
should, however, be afterward well
rinsed In cold water to which a few
drops of methylated spirit have been
added, a teaspmmful a pint being the
correct proportion. Before Ironing
It Is a good plan to roll the ribbon
round a bottle until it Is dry. and
then, after crumpling it between" the
fingers until it Is soft. It may be
pressed on the wrong side with a
moderately hot Iron, a piece of paper
or flannel being intended between
the latter and the cloth.
To Bake Bottom Crusts.
Put In your bottom crust first and
bake a light brown; then add the fruit
or other filling, and you will have
pies with no soggy morsel anywhere
about them, says the Delineator.
Notes.
Every green vegetable should be
cooked rapidly and uncovered, to re
tain Its color.
The best dressing for vegetables
at their perfection is butter, pepper
and salt cauliflower and perhaps as
paragus excepted.
Lying In cold water for an hour or
more will restore to wilted vegetables
quality and freshness.
Sour cream makes tough butter,
and lacking In that delicate aroma
that attaches to butter made from
cream that Is ripe, but not sour.
For a thick gravy fry a minced
onion in butter to dark brown color,
stir Into It one ounce flour, sllr w11,
then add half pint of stock, pepper
and salt to taste, and a little catsup.
Stir while all boil for a few minutes,
then strain and serve.
Thin the paint or varnish that by
standing has become thick, with tur
pentine; keep all small paint brushes
when not In use in a covered paint
pail In turpentine. If kept covered it
will not evaporate. Will keep the
brushes as pliable as gasoline.
For a good squash pie take a heap
ing cup of squash, one pint of milk,
three eggs, one cup of sugar. Mix
together ground ginger and grated
nutmeg, so you have of the two to
gether two-thirds of a teaspoonful,
and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Bake
without a top crust.

' N0VEL FRUIT DRNKs.
Id Chocolate, a Frenoh Punch and m
Delicious Pineapple Lemonade.
Now'a the day nnd now' the hour
when the cooling draft Is sought for.
Fruit drinks that are novel nro espe
cially desired. Iced chocolate Is ratUu;
unfamiliar, niyl Is perhaps inor
nourishing than the other. recipes here
offered to III! a wide felt demand:
Iced Chocolate.-Thls beverage Is so
generally served hot that the cool sum
wor drink Is far less fajnlllnr than
It should be. When carefully rundo
and served It Is delicious as ,well n
wholesome, and can be safely 'reeoin
mended for delicate children and eld
erly people. Put one ounce of nu
sweetened chocolate Into n saucepan
and pour on It gradually one pint of
boiling water, stirring nil the time.
Put the saucepan on the Are and stir
uutil the chocolate Is nil dissolved,
then add granulated augur to taste and
stir until It begins to boll, Cook for
three minutes lunger without stirring,
theu strain and cool. Add one ten
spoonful of vanilln extract, bottle nnd
store hi a cool place, When needed
put two tablespoonful of crushed lee
In a tumbler, and two tnblesMiottfuls
of whipped cream, one gill of milk and
half a gill of carbonic or notllnnrU
water, stir thoroughly U'fore drink
ing. Tea Punch.-Whilo fresh rnrlts are
always preferable, canned berries and
pineapple may be substituted, Kteep
two generous teaspoonful of ten In
two qtmrts of waierrfor five minutes.
Then strain and add one pound of
lump sugar, stirring until thoroughly
dissolved. Crate the peel of eight
good sized lentous nnd eitract all tire
Juice. Cut three oranges Into slices,
shred one pineapple, slice five bananas
very thin, nitd hull one pint of straw
lierrles. Wren the ten Is cold ndd the
fruit nnd let stand In the refrigerator
for several hours. Place a cul of
Ice In the punch lwl; ixurr the mix
tures around It. When chilled serve In
punch glasses. To get the best re
sults from the pineapple peel nnd re
move the eyes, tear apart with a sil
ver fork, reject the cores, sprinkle
with sugar, and let It stand on the
Ice for twelve hours.
A French Putu lr.-The French are
noted for their dellcute sud delicious
drinks. A favorite Parisian recipe
calls for Ore pounds of rnlslns, five
pound of dried apples and flvc gal
lons of water. Put all together In a
small earthen Jar and let stand uncov
ered for three days, stirring occasion
ally from the bottom. At the end of
that time bottle, with half a teaspoon
ful of sugar and a stick of cinnamon
In each bottle. Cork tightly nnd store
In a cool place. The fruits having fer
mented Ihe drink w ill keep for a con
siderable length of time nnd Is really
delicious when served cold. It Is
claimed that over 50.000,0h gallons of
this punch were drunk In France In a
single year.
Pineapple Lemonade.- Pineapple lem
onade Is refreshing and Is prepared
with very little trouble. Pore and
grate a ripe pineapple; add the Julie
of four or five lemons and a simp
made by boiling together for a few
minutes two cups of sugar and the
same quantity of water. When quite
cold, strain nnd Ice. A mnrnschluo
cherry In each glass Is an agreeable
addition, as are a few strawberries or
raspberries.
Egg Flque. A drink that combines
nourishment with refreshment Is sure
to be welcome on a warm day. Brent
a whole egg In a glass nnd add two
tablespoonfuls of any fruit sirup pre
ferred. Fill with Iced bottled soda
water and mix thoroughly In nn egg
shaker until light nnd fonmy. Pour
Into n glass, ndd a dash of phosphate
and grate nutmeg lightly over the top.

fashion that will be becoming to the
majority of young matrons. The em-

broidery extending In panels from the
j shoulders to the bottom of the skirt Is
an effective way of decorating that will
doubtless bo much used during the
coming season In lightweight silks.
Cold Water Plain Cake.
A cold water plalu cake is made by
creaming together one quarter cupful
butter and one and a half ctipfuls of
sugar. Add two well beaten eggs, one
cupful wnter and two nnd n half cup

8END MONEY WITH COPY.
We have been receiving resolutions
and cards of thanks lately without the
enclosure of money to pay. That
there may be no misunderstanding we
would say: It costs money to run n
paper and the editor has but two
things to sell to get his money hack
one Is subscriptions and the other Is
his advertising space. As Is custom
ary, we will charge for card of thanks,
50c; for resolutions of respect, $1.00;
for notices of church or lodge enter,
talnments, suppers, soclaldes, etc.,
where there aro charges for admis
sion, 5 cents per line, but where there
are no charges for these events, wo
will break the rule and Insert them
free. Wo make this announcement so
that our good friends may understand
our rule In this respect. Those who
send such nrtlcles In should enclose
We have a buyer for timber lands and for two ten
