Someone says ”give iis recipes during
Lent,” and this quiet season is a goo 1
< ime to learn to make delicious things.
Here is the first installment of the re
cipes:
HADIKX'K FILLETS.
Procure two large fresh haddocks, wash I
and dry th«m carefully, cut off the heals,
tails and fins, and remove their back
bones. Divide each fish into four portions,
dust with flour and dip them into well

GOWN WITH SPANGLED TRIMMING FROM HARPER’S BAZAR
Cloth Gowns seem to have taken a most tenacious hold on popular fancy, and
there is apparently no end to the different styles of coloring and trimming, while the
general effect is much the same. A grace ful gown made in a favorite style is of
gray cloth, the skirt of medium width, with all the fulness at the back; down the
trout and around the toot are bands of steel and jet paillettes, which give long
lines. the waist is very odd, with the front of the velvet a deeper shade of
rgay; over the velvet is a corselet effect of the cloth trimmed with the spangled
bands. The sleeves are small, nearly tight- fitting, and with pointed cuff down over
the hand. The cut of the gown is given in the tissue-paper pattern issued by Har
per s Bazaar, where it appears. A plain high collar of velvet and a black belt with
jewelled buckle finish the waist. The same design can be carried out in ten different
colorings, and would look extremely well in two shades of wood-color.
fry fish. In cooking turn the nieces sev
eral times, so that they may brown on
both sides. Drain on blotting paper when
finished and serve with shrimp sauce.
SPAGHETTI WITH TOMATO SAUCE.
Take one can or one quart of fresh peal
■ed tomatoes and add to them a 'piece of
garlic (nothing else will do) the size of
a small hickorynut, a dozen whole cloves,
an equal number of pepper corns, salt 'to
taste and a little sugar; let simmer slow
ly until thoroughly scalded; strain through
a fine seive, and add red pepper to taste, a
generous teaspoon of extract of beef and
the largest lump of butter your means will
allow. Put back on the stove where it will
simmer and become the consistency of
cream. Place the desired quality of spa
ghetti without breaking in hot water and
boil it for twenty-five minutes; drain the
spaghetti dry and serve with tomato sauce.
HOT CHEESE SANDWICH.
Ha-t cheese sandwiches are particularly
nice for Sunday evening tea. Slice the
bread thin and cut it round with a large
biscuit cutter. Tut a thick layer of grated
cheese between the two forms, sprinkle
with salt and a dash of cayenne pepper
and press the round pieces of bread well
together. Fry them to a delicate brown
on each side in equal parts of hot lard and
butter and serve very hot.
PARSNIP BALLS.
Mash one pint of boiled parsnips. Add
two tablespoonfuls of butter, one table
spoonful of salt, half a saltspoon with pep
per, two tablespooniuls of milk and one
beaten egg. Mix all the ingredients ex-
the egg, stir on the fire until the
mixture bubbles, add the egg; set away to
cool. When cool make into balls and
brown in lard or bacon drippings.
WITH NEW BEETS.
. Boil four nice beets until tender; peel
and chop until fine. Put in baking mold
and turn over cream until covered; sprin
kle salt and pepper and .bits of butter all
over them and bake until thoroughly heat
ed. Remove from the oven; add two table
■ spoonfuls of vinegar to a pint of the mix
; ture.
SYLLABUB.
Half a 'pint of thick cream, juice of a
qearter of a lemon, rind of a quarter of a
lemon, one tablespoorrful of brandy (if
liked,) three whites of eggs and pulverized
sugar to taste. Mix the brandy, lemon
| juice and rind together with the cream;
sweeten to taste. Whisk the whites of the
egg, adl lightly to the cream. Whisk well,
probably about half an hour, taking off
the froth as it rises and laying ft on a hair
I seive to drain. When ail the froth has
I risen have ready some custard classes or
cpss filled up about a quarter full 'with any
wine or well flavored custard. Fill up the
glasses with the froth and serve.

DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT.
Was the One at Mulberry Street Church
Annex.
The literary entertainment of the Mul
berry Street Methodist church in the an
nex last night was a most delightful af
fair, and all of these who were present
spent a most pleasant evening making a
trip around the world.
The talks were instructive as well as
interesting. An imaginary journey was
made all around the earth, and when the
party arrived in Macon it was glad to get
back home again.

MACON NEVvs SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 19 [B9B.

UNLESS 11 RAI NS
Col. Stubbs Says That the
Whole of the Fruit Belt
is Suffering.
TO TIGHT COMMISSION MEN
The Growers Are Better Prepared
Than Ever and With Good Crop
They Are in Shape.
Unless the rain comes soon and comes
in good quantities the outlook for a fruit
crop is slim. At least this is the opinion
of one of the best judges on the subject in
this section of the state.
Col. John M. Stubbs, of Dublin, was in
the city yesterday end expressed himself
to this effect. He is one of the largest
peach growers in the state and has or
chards on the Macon and Dublin road.
He says that if the rain does not comt
very soon it will be too late and that the
crop in most of the middle portion of the
state will be completely lost.
“It is the same way all over the fruit
erowing section of the state,” he said,
“and it is ridiculous to talk of a good crop
until we have rain. The fact of the matter
is that the trees are perishing and that
they cannot yield the fruit unless they are
fed with what they must have at this sea
son of the year, moisture.”
With a good rain, however, <olonei
Stubbs says that the outlook would be
splendid for a good crop.
“We are just now getting in condition
to fight the commission merchant. Here
tofore it has mattered little whether we
made a good crop o-r not the commission
merchant got .. aid. As a matter of fact
under the reign of the commission mer
chant, the fruit growing business was a
delusion and a snare and the grower got
the worst end of it, but we are now in a
position to make a fight and I think that
we will be successful.
“The fruit growers are better organized
this year than ever and if they will only
see that their only hope is to stick to
gether, we will get the value of o”r fruit
l if not the commission merchant will get
the whoie thing as he has done in the
past.”
DR. MASON LEAVES
To Take Up His Home in Another Part of
the Country.
Next Wednesday Dr. J. M. Mason will
leave 'Macon ifor Rort Worth, Texas, where
he will in the future reside.
The news of Dr. 'Mason’s departure from
Macon will be received with regret among
his many friends here, and he goes with
♦hose who have learned to love him and
admire his many excellent qualtites, pro
testing against the step. But Dr. (Mason
feels that it is to his interest 'to m«ike the
change.
He will go into the dental supply busi
ness ith wfMr. S. Newman, who is well re
membered in Macon. He was a guest here
Christmas. Dr. Mason iwill out give up his
dental practice, however. He will be ac
companied by his son, Holmes, and the
rest of the family will join him some time
next October.
During his stay of thirteen years in
Macon practicing his profession of destis
trj, Dr. Mason has won for himself and
enviable 'reputation as a skilled man in
his profession and a perfect gentleman at
all times. He goes to Texas with the very
highest recomendations that the best peo
ple of this city can bestow upon him, and
all wish him success.
Dr. W. L. Smith, of Hawkinsville, will
succeed 'Dr. Mason here, and he comes to
'Macon highly recommended.
DRUMMER’S LAMENT.
What Happened to Him When His Order
Came Too Late.
An order given by Mr. Clem Phillips to
George T .Pringle, a drummer for an
Eastern house, and the late delivery of the
goods called forth the wroth of the mer
chant. The discomforted drummer retired
to his hotel and out of the accumulation
of his misery he wrote the following:
LATE DELIVERIES.
(Or What Happened to an Innocent Drum
mer.)
Out of an angry merchant’s door
A shattered salesman flew,
He’d fooled that merchant twice before
And he kicked this time with his shoe.
The merchant prince wore number nine,
The drummer oh! where was he?
“Internal explosion or outside mine”
Said the jury, “We cannot agree ”
NEW INDUSTRY.
Anticeptic Moth Meal Will be Manufactured
in Macon.
The Anti-Septic Moth Meal company
will commence the manufacture of their
product in Macon next week, having made
the necessary arrangements. This com- !
pany produces an entirely new article and
something that is destined to find a pl-ace
in every home and store in the country
where moths have courted in the past
Anti-Septic Moth Meal is absolutely
odorless, and destroys the moth as well as
preventing their recurrence. All of these
qualities are lacking in other products sold
for this purpose.
Some idea of the extent of the business
that may be done by this company may be'
gathered from the fact that the product
will at once take the place of all the other j
articles now upon the market for the de- 1
struction or prevention of moths. This is
the season of the year when the house
keeper or the storekeeper, in putting away
the winter furs, carpets, rugs, or clothing j
needs an odorless preventative and some
thing that will kill the moth. The Anti-
Septic Moth Meal will be on the market
n s ?it weeli - aEd will be pushed all over the
United States with a rush.
It will be for sale with all the druggists
in the city.
You can talk to 10,000 every day through
the columns of The News.
