PRESBYTERIAN OF THE SOUTH
PIANO CLUB.
The superior quality and durability
ui luc iimuu wuicu i? now ueing < uereu
to the members of the Presbyterian of
the South Plauo Club Is shown by the
following letter from one of the earliest
purchasers of the Ludden & Bates
Piano, away back in 1883. Mr. H. V.
Co&rsey, of Bradentown, Fla., writing
under date of February 7, 1910, says:
"1 am the owner of Laidden & Bates
piano No. Ill,, in rosewood case, and
1 take pleasure in mentioning that it
has a good clear tone and a smooth
even touch, notwithstanding it was
bought of you twenty-six or twentyseven
years ago. during which time it
has had constant service, considered by
some an extraordinary amount of hard
usage. This instrument has served two
generations in our immediate family in
a most satisfactory way and we have
no idea of parting with it for any
other piano."
If you would like to join the Club

Seasoiiuhlc Hints: "The good old
summer time" is always welcome, and
we have it with us now with all its
pleasant gifts, also with all the unpleasantness
that it brings. While we should
be thankful for the former, we shoulcl
guard against the lattter, and we can
very much, with a little care and dlscreation.
The green and fresh fruits and vegetables
of the season are a continuous
delight and the farmer and the market
gardener, with the modern helps
and ideas, bring them to our tables, in
all their perfection and at insignificant
cost. .Less in fact, than we can, generally,
afford to cultivate them, unless
in the business. But nevertheless, wc
appreciate and relish such things when
we raise them ourselves, even at a
somewhat greater expense.
With these good things, from the
temptat.on to over-indulgeucc in them,
come the most distinct drawback. With
the added heat and more open air exercise
the consequent increase of appetite
and the allurements of fresh
ineicm. .rails, and garden produce, constant
tu.e is required to prevent diarrhoea,
dysentery, cholera morbus, and
other troubles of the bowels, which
bring in their train susccptihiiity to
fevers, nervousness, and many other
ills thp mn-tn cVlnnlrl
"Guard well the citadel ol health?the
stomacn."
Grown folks should know?and gener.
j dv?Lurw to set the guard, hut that
they have u double duty, when they have
any part of ihe control of children. The
little ones do not know so well about the
virtues of avoidance, hence they are the
niost frequent sufferers frcin the green
fruits, etc., and should be particularly
looked after all the time, not only because
they are most liable to injurious
influences, but because they are not so
able to witnstaud the attack of cramps,
colic, d>sentery and all that, as more
mature and stronger persons.
ViUU -RUU'h.
'a he most numerous causes of diarrhoea
are indigestion, over-eating,
drinking too a.uch ice water when not
accustomed to it. eating unripe or unsound
fruit and vegetables thai do not
agree with the stomach; often a chilling
of the body, by exposure to rain or a
great or quick change in temptraiure,
etc. 1 his drives the secretions inward,
jr checks them almost entirely?as, for
...stance, the sudden stoppage of per.iration?and
thus cause* congestion,
at nature seeks to relieve by what 13
known as dysentery.
As ment.oued before, many of those
.. es may be avoided, not necessarily
> giving up fruits, and vegetables, and
iue wilier, out Dy using tliein properly.
If one is not in the habit of using ice
water, he should use it more sparingly
until he becomes accustomed to it. Then
it may be used freely the year round,
and does more good than harm. Moreover,
the best ice water, or the best
of any water, as to that, is water-of
ice, meaning water, that is made from
the melting ice, kept in a container, designed
for that purpose, though it may
be obtained?but more expensively in
,h? ' - - " -* ?
c?u?Mum imi iua.i menu in an ordinary
water cooler, a big pitcher, or a
bucket, or other receptacle of the kind.
It is coming to be known, through scientific
experiment that this is the purest,
hence the best water that one can obtain.
But on this subject we have lately
sent out an article that goes Into the
subject in detail.

BUFFET SUPPER.
A supper served from a sideboard,
or a table, and passed around in plates
and cups to the guests as they enter
,the dining room. For the service of
such a supper the dining room is bril
liantly lighted and chairs are arranged
against the wail. The table is adorned
with (lowers -and laden with baskets
of cakes and sandwiches, trays of bonbons,
platters of fruit, moulds of jellied
meats, and dishes of meat salad.
On the sideboard fringed napkins,
iorks, knives, cups and saucers, plates
and glasses, are placed in abundance,
in winter hot dishes are customary?
suca as creamed oysters with warm
linger rolls or some preparation of
lobster a la Newbcrt. nr in tho fnrm nf
aeu c^ops, umbales of meat o.
lisa, chicken croquets, minced meat in
pastry shells. In the pantry, coffee,
tea and bouillon snould be kept hot and
ireeiers of iced sweets in readiness for
use. As a rule the menu consists df
one hot dish, a salad, ices, sandwiches
or rolls, bonbons, codec, and chocolate.
The dining room doors having been
thrown open, guests go in and out as
tuey please, choosing whatever refreshments
they wish. Although the gentlemen
aid in supplying the wants of
ladies, servants must be on duty in the
dining room unless a simple menu is
prepared, as trays of dainty sweets,
and delicate sandwiches that can be
taken with the lingers. On the sideboard
then, only plates, forks, glasses,
and napkins are needed.?Ex.
MUCH .SMALL FRUIT VINES.
A successful West Virginia raspberry
grower g<ves the following reasons for
mulching:
It prevents the growth of weeds.
It retains moiBture in the soil.
It adds humus, one of the necessary
elements.
it keeps the fruit clean and prevents
mud at picking time.
it saves labor, the cost of mulching
an acre with forest leaves or straw not
exceeding $15.
It prevents deep freezing.
It makes the fruit more solid for cultivation
and better for shipping purposes.
It prevents the baking of the soil
caused by tramping at picking time.
It has the disadvantage of encouraging
mice and establishing a surface root
by stem. However, we have not noticed
any serious damage from either of these
effects.
The cost of growing raspberries by
nature's method, as I like to call it, is
not very great. Picking is a nice job
wuere there is no mud, no weeds and
where the canes have been properly
pruned.
Hon't leave any old canes stunding in
' the field.
BlTlAiU THE EOttlSJi KAILS.
The habit of biting the nails is vicious
in more ways than one. It should be
broken up as soon as possible. The
mother can make use of many methods
to stop the child. The fingers can be
tied up. The child can wear mittens.
Letting a bitter lluld dry on the fingers
is sometimes sufficient. If these methods
do not break up the babit> pasteboard
can be tied on the arms In such
a manner- that the elbows cannot be
bent. A man's cuff slipped over the
elbow, too, will prevent the hhgers getting
to the mouth.
However, the latter methods should
not be used if it is not absolutely necessary,
as thiey will make the child unharm.
