Thoae who are being entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Rossman are Misses Blanche Alexander and Llzzette Pal mer, of Brooklyn; Miss Ella Eagle, of Belma; Mrs. Lucy Barrow, Mias Dor othy Denig and Mr. Harry Kosaman, of ficottdale. While several parties have been CANNING MADE EASY FOR THE HOUSEWIFE One of the daintiest of housewifely accomplishments is the putting up of fruits. It savors of the days when even the grandest of dames thought It not beneath her dignity to make her own sweetmeats and put up her own alm- ples for winter's use. Aside from the realization that preserves taste better to the family when put up by the hands of wife or mother, there Is an unspeakable comfort In knowing that no pernicious preservatives have en tered Into their composition and that they have been prepared In sanitary surroundings. It Is perfect cleanliness and the use of the best materials that spell success In the canning. The fruit should be ripe, but not overripe, for as soon as ripe or overripe the pectin, or jelly making principle, loses its power. Im- perfect • fruit should not be canned or preserved, though gnarly or bruised fruits may be used In Jellies or manna- lade If the Imperfect portions are cut out. Use only granulated sugar and avoid that with a bluish cast, remem bering that the best sugar obtainable Is none too good. As for cans, buy the best In the market, Self-Healing and perfect. If you are to use old cans be sure to get new rubbers. An old rub ber Is n delusion and a snare. Other utenatla are a skimmer, a ladle a strainer, large mouthed funnel, two long handled wooden apnona, a fruit pricker, a wire basket for Immersing the kinds of fruit that need peeling Into hot water, knives for paring, preferably plated; several bright tin pans or earth en bowls, a stoneware crock or two, a wooden vegetable masher, Jelly bags and squares of cheesecloth, a rack to slip In the bottom of the boiler If the fruit Is to be cooked by the steaming planned for the friends of Mr. and M „„ vvvi%iij b Roasman, the time will be largely taken j p r(K . eHM nn nfl t>' P stos mat to lit the 4 ‘ *** '* ~ “ oven If the fruit Is to be oven cooked pleasures, which are better suited than formal functions to these warm August days.

Immediately after the civil War R)*ny Southern families of prominence and former wealth found themselves under the necessity of disposing of many objects of art and beautiful household furniture, which had prior to that time adorned their homes. Some of these things were In the na ture of heirlooms and were parted with only under dire necessity, but the same grit which led their owners Into and .sustained them during the long, un equal struggle Induced them to let go In order that steps for a new life, un- ' der new conditions, might be success fully prosecuted which would again prove of what metal these people were Herein lies the difference between the disposition of such articles on the part of some of the families of some of the European states and those of the and plenty of washable holders and towels. Beales are a desirable addition to the canning outfit, as weighing la more re liable than measuring. Before begin ning the canning the kitchen should be thoroughly swept and dusted with a damp cloth, and all the utensils steril ised. The glass cans, bottles, etc., should be put in cold water over the fire, brought gradually to the boiling point, then boiled ten minutes. Stew- pans, strainers, etc., should be put In water hot or cold and boiled ten or fifteen minutes. The cook herself should be suitably dressed for her work, In washable ma terial; no flippy floppy sleeves, or sweeping train, and a cap to hold all floating tresses In check. Wherever possible, fruit should be prepared over night or In the early cool of the morn ing, so thut when ready to can there need be no delay. If there is a shady yard or back porch, do t’>e work .A.t of doors, tanking t.is preliminary t*v»v*ry poetry of labor. A paring bee ia no end nberlng that many hands malts light work. lineapples may be peeled avid shredded, then covered with sugar and set ,ln the cellar over night. Currants may be stemmed and looked er, cherries pitted for preserves, gooseberries topped and tailed, and some kinds of berries looked over. Some fruits, however, need to be cook ed as soon as possible after bringing in the house, In order to retain color and crispness. All market fruit must be washed be fore canning, and home grown fruit if raised where It will gather dust. Cur rants especially must be thoroughly washed on account of the hellebore used to protect them from the currant orm. Berries that have to be wush- 1 should be placed In a colander be fore stemming or hulling anti cold wa ter poured over them. This must be done quickly, then the berries shaken until drained. Do not use the fingers In hulling them. A simple huller can be purchased for 5 cents, or tho bonbon tongs may be used. Before peeling peaches All a wire basket and plunge for two or three minutes In a pan of boiling water. Lift the wire basket out and lower for an other moment in a pan of cold water, drain, then slip the skins off. Plums and tomatoes may be peeled In tho same way. While the principle of successful can ning Is always the same, qhsolue ster ilization. there art' different ways of accomplishing this. Borne fruits, like rhubarb, green gooseberries and cran berries, may be preserved without cooking or tho use of sugar, because their own acid Is a germ killer. The proportion of sugar used In the preser vation of other fruits varies accord ing to acidity and the time of cook ing to the tenderness of the fruit. Some fruits arc best conserved by cooking Immediately In syrup, others, like quinces and hard pears, .must first be boiled in clear water to make ten der, then in syrup. While there are a number of different methods of can ning, the three principal ones are stewing the fruit before It Is put In Jars, cooking the fruit In Jars In the oven, and cooking the fruit in Jars in a water bath. There is also the cold water process of canning and the bar le due or sun cooked preserves. Simplest of all Is the stewing process. The syrups used In canning or pre serving are made with varying propor tions of sugar and water. For canning, a light syrup, one pint of sugar to two pints of water, Is best for the sweet fruits, such as pears, peaches, cherries, swpet plums, raspberries, huckleber ries and blackberries. Acid fruits, such as sour plums and cherries, need a pint of sugar to a pint of water. Juicy fruits—the various berries, currants and cherries—require little or no % wa ter, simply the sugar. To Can By 8tewing. Having measured the fruit and al lowed the amount of sugar called for, put sugar and water or fruit In the preserving kettle and cook until thor oughly heated through, the time being dependent upon .the kind of fruit. When ready to put In Jars roll the Jar In hot water, slipping under side ways, then set In a shallow pan hav ing about two Inches of hot water In tho bottom or If preferred a towel wrung out of hot water. Now, with ladle or spoon, using a wide mouthed funnel for the Jar, fill with the scald ing frul^ and syrup. Slip a silver plated knife around the Inside of the Jar next the gloss to let out air bub bles, and pack fruit and juice solidly. When full to overflowing and rubber smoothly adjusted, put on the top and fasten or screw as tight ns possible. Lift out the Jar, set on a board or thick folded newspaper, out of a draught. As It cools tighten again, If screw covers are used. When cold, wipe tM Jarrf clean, wrap In paper, label atul set away In a cool dark closet. Cannsd Fruit in a Water Bath. Have ready a common wash boiler with a rack In the bottom and enough warm water to come several Inches above the rack. Fill sterilized Jars with fruit, packing ns closely as pos sible. Make a syrup of sugar and wa ter of the desired sweetness. When at the boiling point pour over the fruit nnd set the cans In the boiler, not allowing them to touch. Keep them separated by cotton rope or cloths, so that they will not strike when the water begins to boll about them. Do not nut on the rubbers, but cover lightly with the tops. Cover the boiler, then cook about ten minutes or a little longer than fruit canned by stewing. Draw the boiler back, take out the cans one by one, setting In a pan of hot water. Put on the rubbers, fill to overflowing with more of the syrup, that has been kept hot, and seal.

Oven Canning. Cover the bottom of the oven with a sheet of thick asbestos or set In 1 dripping pan with a little warm wo ter and a cloth on the bottom to set the Jars on; fill sterilized jars with fruit, packing compactly and covering with the syrup; do not have the rub- bers »»n the cans, nor yet the regular can tops; a tin lid may be put on tem porarily If desired; the heat of the oven should be moderate; cook about ten minutes, remove the cans one by one, fill with more boiling syrup to mnke full, put on rubbers and tops and seal.

ARTI8T FARNY MARRIES WARD. The noted painter of the American Indian, Henry F. Farny, of Clifrtnnatl, was married a few days ago, at James town, N. Y., to hls ward. Miss Anna Ray. Mr. Farny Is 59 years old; hls bride is only 18. The romance began when Miss Ray was a little girl. When the artist first saw her she. was a pretty, care-free child In a short frock, playing on the lawn of a friend’s home In Covington, Ky. He learned she was the child of poor parents, and he gained their con sent to educate the girl. She was reared In every way as a daughter of hls' would have been. She was sent to a select school and she had* every ad vantage that money could provide. Her benefactor visited her twice a year. The love for the child blossomed into the love for the “one woman" and Farny asked hls ward to marry him. She consented, and for the first time In Its history “Umberland," the artist’s country estate In Kentucky, will have a mistress. The couple left for New York, where the artist will present his child bride to hls friends. Mr. Farny has sketched and painted In all the cities of the Old World, he has been the friend of kings and em erors, and he Is still talked of on th< ’estern plains as “The Big Man Who Paints." For years he has lived the life of a recluse on hls magnificent Kentucky country place, "Umberland,” deaf to the entreaties of society, which would lion ize him. The emperor of Germany has _ small canvas by Farny in hls pri vate apartments which he values high ly—and he paid hls good round Ger man thalers for It. Farny was the original of Marny, the delightful yarn spinner in F. Hop- kinson Smith's "Woodflre In No. 3.” Smith urn! Farny shared a studio in Cincinnati in the old days. Farny painted the portrait of “Aunt Lou,” the old colored mammy, who told the story of “A Kentucky Cinderella,” while sweeping out Farny’s studio. Robert Blum, who illustrated Sir Ed win Arnold's book on Japan, was a protege of Farny’s; Kenyon Cox has reason to remember the rare gifts of this remarkable man, and Xlehaus, the sculptor, owes much to the generous advice and criticism of Farny. Laf- cadlo Hearn, w hose stories of “Thing* Japanese" resemble bits of porcelain, was another protege of Farny’s.

Special to The Georgian. Augusta, Ga., Aug. 21.—Cotton Is still going down the ladder In price, and yesterday middling was quoted at 93.4 cents, which Is an eighth off from what It was Saturday. The price has been declining at the rate of an eighth a day for several days, and unless there is something to check the decline there will be great loss to the farmers In this vicinity. The older heads on the cotton row declare that the situation Is nothing short of being serious, and that If there Is not something done real soon to check the decline that they believe there will be many failures this year. The sales yesterday were the smallest they have been In some time, but the stock In Augusta Is gradually decreas ing as the sales last week were very large. All eyea are turned upon the govern ment report, which will be Issued on ember 3, and it Is believed that it have much to do with the condi tion of affairs.
