KEEP BRIGHT AND YOU
WILL KEEP BUSY
Electric light is the magnet that draws trade.
The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business.
People can no more resist the attraction of a bril
liant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist
the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Electrically illum
inated show windows, bright interior and sparkling
Electric Sign getting an advantage over you?
The moth never flutters around the unlighted
candle! Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop
window lighting a necessity, whe'ther they remain
open after dark or not. Competition forces modern
methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with
Electric light will make many a sale "the night
before." Electric light compels attention, makes
easy the examination of your display, shows goods
in detail and fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect' the Electric Sign. It is
soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is
lighted burning you name in the public mind. It
is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops
workcosts little.

you have sifted the cream tartar. Dla
aolve the soda In the rest of the milk,
and add the last thing. Pake In two,
large, deep, round tins. When wanted,
split one of the cakes and cover the
lower half with slices of banana
sprinkled with powdered sugar. Have
some whipped cream prepared as for
short cake, and spread a few spoon
fuls over the fruit. On this place the
other portkm of thtf cake, which must
be covered with banana and sugar;
pour the remainder of the cream over
the top and the aides and serve Imme
diately. Use a silver knife to slice the
bauanas. This recipe will make two
pies, as the crusts are thick enough
to split and will keep for several days
If not filled.
Yanks Salt Pork Fritters.
Parboil eight or ton thin slices of
salt pork, then fry them. Make a bat
ter of a pint of milk, three beaten
eggs, a half teaspoonful of baking
powder, a pinch of salt and enough
flour to make a thin batter. This
will make two cakes of the slxe of
the frying pan. Place half of the pork
In the frying pan and pour half the
batter over It; then fry on both sides.
When clone, proceed In the same way
with the remaining pork and batter.
Roast Rabbit
First, to skin the rabbit, cut off
the feet at the first Joint, then loosen
the skin on each side of the slit in
the belly. Now push the hind legs
(free) inward, then the shoulders;
strip the skin from the back, leaving
the tall on. Now comes the most crit
ical point the skinning of the head.
Should it be for roaming, the ears
should be left on; if for boiling, cut
them off. Draw the skin very care
fully off, using a knife where the skin
Is firm. If this Is not dono the rabbit
will be decapitated Instead of skinned.
Truss the rabbit by drawing the legs
close to the body, the hind ones for
ward and the front ones backward;
pass a skewer through them and the
body. Skewer the head firmly be
tween the shoulders. Fill the rabbit,
before trussing, with veal stuffing. It
will take three-quarters of an. hour to
roast Serve with gravy and green
apple or currant Jelly.
Broiled Oystsrs With Bacon.
Place thinly sliced breakfast ba
con In a broiler over a dripping pan
and place in hot oven until cooked.
Remove brown paper and keep warm.
Wash and dry good-sized oysters and
dip ehtmo an, eta etaotn JJametaoln b
dip them, one at a time, in the bacon
fat Place in a broiler, sprinkle spar
lngly with salt and pepper, and broil
over a hot fire until they are plump
and the edges curled. Turn once
while broiling. Arrange on small
pieces of toast on a hot platter, and
garnish with the bacon and some
parsley.
To Use Cold Meat
Take scraps of cold meat of any
kind, cut in uniform size, add a piece
of butter the size of a walnut and one
small onion, and fry together until
brown. Add boiling water to make
a good gravy, and thicken with flour
to the consistency of cream. This
makes an excellent "warmed-over"
dish.
, Stains on Linen,
To remove tea. coffee, fruit and
tomato status, stretch the stained por
tion over a bowl and pour boiling
water through the cloth. If tea stains
resist this treatment, rub well with
glycerine, let stand five minutes and
wash In suds.
Cleaning Gilt Framaa.
Don't attempt to clean picture
frames covered with gold leaf, a the
nnest and most beautiful of all gold
frames are. You can tell them by the
way the gold, as you look at It closely,
seems laid on. here and there curling
over bq slightly away from the frame,
Any sort of cleaning, except the most
'casual dusting. Is bound to make the
1 gold scale off In unsightly fashion.
i Making Nsw Cltlxsns.
One of the most Interesting ac
counts of the assimilation of ait. Im-
i migrant by the land to which she had
Just come was In a newspaper account
' which told of a young Polish girl, who
stepped off the steamer with the pro-
I verblat shawl about her head. She
un'i uy a menu ana uerore they
reached the ferry the shawl had been
discarded; her hair had been hastllv
twisted Into a semblance of the lat
est American mode and a new wrap
had been put about her shoulders.

Woman's Hour of Distress.
"One of the most distressing experi
ences for us women," nunounced Bettl
na. with a toss of her pretty head. "Is
to be brought face to face with ttis
same kind of gowns or hats as thuso
we happen to lie wearing. Really, I
can't think of anything more exasper
ating. All togged out In my new finery
I boarded a llroodway car the other
day. Can you believe It? When I sat
down I saw opposite me a woman
whose dress was of the same material
and made up In much the same way as
mine, and her hat was modeled on
mine or mine on hers not that It made
much difference. Tho horror in her
eyes reflected In my own, 1 suppose,
and the smiles of everybody else well,
I just knew how people looked. As
soon as I recovered from my first feel
tng of weakness I started to leave the
car, but, to make matters worse, my
vls-a-vla, having tho same Intentions,
got tip at the same moment Then
smiles became laughter, and we both
fled." New York Press.

The Grip,
The grip Is not simply a bad cold,
and this fact is worth knowing. It
resembles a cold in some respects,
and colds are often wrongly diagnosed
by the victims as grip. The grip is
a malady which ha laws of Its own,
both as to origin and progress after
development. According to the doc
tors, it must run Its course "there
Is no special remedy that can directly,
destroy the infection, no drugs that
can kill the -bacillus or neutralize
its toxin." This Is also worth know
ing. The main thing is to nurse with
are and give the system the best
possible aid In its efforts to throw off
the poison.
A Conservative 8peh.
There were some doubts In the com
munity as to Homer Floyd' fitness for
a position on the school board, owing
to certain Ispses in his early education,
but bis first speech In bis oltlciul ca
pacity silenced the tongue of all crit
ics. He listened to several recitations
with a grave and Interested air, and
at the end of the last one he arose to
address the school "by request"
"Some thing are In my province as
member of the school board and some
are not" he said, with a genial smile.
"It'a within my provluce to say that I
never beard scholars answer up more
promptly than you children of district
No. 3. As to whether your answers
were or were not correct it Is not my
place to say. Your teacher knows, and
In her bands I leave the matter."

For the Complexion.
In many caeg a wonderful Improve
ment In the complexion may be ob
tained by merely washing the face
several timps a day with the follow
ing lotion, leaving It on until it dries:
Take half an ounce of glycerin, and
mix with it half a pint of orange flow
er water. To this add a tablespoon
ful of powdered borax.
A Very Dirty Collar.
Sue Moon, a Chinaman, was bronirht
before the Melbourne magistrates the
other day charged with having work
ed after 2 o'clock ou a Saturday after
noon, contrary to the provlsloua of the
local factories 1 act He pleuded that
be bad washed only one collar after
the statutory closing time.
"What! Only one collar from i to 8
'clockr exclaimed the chairman.
"Ulm welly dirty collar." rejoined
Sue Moon.
This defense was deemed too thla.
and Sue was fined 12.50. After paying
he jemarked, "Fackly act make China
man welly lazy fellow."
How to Fold a Skirt.
To fold a skirt properly, close tho
placket fastening and then place It
fiat against the exact middle of the
fiont breadth. This will bring a fold
down each side of the garment, but
will leave the front breadth flat and
smooth, which is all-important. Then
grasp the skirt band at each of these
folds and fold the skirt In threes.
This Is usually about the width of the
fronl breadth, so that remains flat.
The True Bohemian.
The main characteristic of tho bo
heiniun is a perfectly consistent care
lessness. Phil May was a true typir
of the bohcmlan; so was the Shifter;
so was O'Shea; Wnllls Mackay also,
but not. perhaps. William, bis brilliant
