ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Kitchen Hints, Among Which There
May Be a New Thought or Two.
Prunes improve in flavor if cook
ed with one-fourth as many apri
cots. Wash them in several waters
and allow them to soak overnight
in cold water. In the morning place
them on the back of the stove, add
the sugar and allow them to simmer
gently, never boil, until tender.
Pudding sauce will never be
lumpy if it is made backward—that
is, mix the dry flour and sugar to
gether, then add the boiling water
and lastly the butter and flavoring.
The wild flavor can be removed
from rabbits and water fowl by
soaking them overnight in sweet
milk.
Nobody likes to remove the eyes
from a pineapple, but it can be
done in a very short time if it is
first cut in slices. The slices can
then be easily and quickly pared. .
Bread is ready for the oven if
when touched with the finger the
dough springs back, leaving no dent.
The old theory that bread must be
kneaded stiff with flour in order to
be good is not altogether reliable.
It is much easier to work if mixed
soft, rises quicker and is just as de
licious as if made the old way.
Lemons will keep for a long time
if placed on a shelf in a cool, dry
place and covered with glass tum
blers.
Chicken loses much of its delicate
flavor if put on to cook in too much
water and allowed to boil furious
ly. It should simmer gently until
the water is nearly evaporated from
the juices. The salt should not be
added until the last hour of cook
ing.
If apples intended for a fruit sal
ad are pared with a silver knife and
put into cold water that has a drop
or two of lemon juice in it they will
not turn dark.
Lard is much nicer for pastry,
and, indeed, for every purpose for
which it is used, if when it is ren
dered it is mixed with suet in the
proportion of one-third suet to two
thirds lard. Suet cannot be ren
dered in water, but should be placed
in a dripping pan and set in the
oven to bake out. The lard and
suet should then be put together be
fore they are strained.
A Substitute For Hash.
Haters of hash may find relief
from this bugbear in a most appe
tizing and economical dish made as
follows: Melt two tablespoonfuls of
butter in a saucepan, add two ta
blespoonfuls of flour, half a tea
spoonful of salt, two dashes of
white pepper and gradually one pint
of milk, stirring steadily. When the
whole is boiling stir in a cupful of
stale bread crumbs, one tablespoon
ful of chopped parsley and half a
teaspoonful s os onion juice. Take
this from, the fire and stir in a pint
of meat of any sort, minced
, line, and the yolks of three
eggs, well beaten. Then add the
whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff
froth. Pour the whole into a but
tered dish and bake in a moderate
oven until brown on top. Then add
grated bread crumbs and brown
again and serve immediately with
tomato or mushroom sauce. —New
York Tribune.
Scouring and Cleaning Mirrors.
To scour mirrors make a paste of
whiting and water. Smear the sur
face with it and let it dry on the
glass. Then rub it off with tissue
paper or with a soft newspaper.
Rub gently, for the particles of grit
in the papqr may scratch the glass.
In the first place, it is well to
know a good cleaner. This can be
made by adding to whiting enough
cold tea to make a thin paste. Re
move the fly specks with warm tea
and dry the mirror. Then smear
some of the paste on the glass and
rub with a dry cloth.
The Children Like Them.
Walnut cookies are old time fa
vorites with children. Allow one
cup of butter, one and a half cups
of sugar, three eggs and one cup of
flour mixed with two cups of chop
ped walnut meats. Cream the but
ter and sugar and add the eggs and
floured nuts. Lastly stir in one and
a half cups of flour into which has
been sifted a teaspoonful of baking
powder. Drop on a buttered, sheet,
allowing room for spreading, deco
rating the top of each cooky with
half a nut meat and a sprinkle of
granulated sugar.
To Iron Lace.
When ironing lace an excellent
way to make it stiff without the use
of starch is to dampen a cloth in
water to which a little sugar has
been added and place it over the
lace. Another method is to damp
en a piece of new muslin or other
white goods containing dressing
and place over the lace and iron un
til dry. Both these methods are
advocated by professional lace reno
vators, and lace so treated acquires
a crisp new appearance that is very
different from the ordinary launder
ing.
Hall’s Schools.
Examination of Teachers to Occur
June 17th and 18th.
County School Commissioner T. H.
Robertson has received instructions
from State School Commissioner W. B.
Merritt, calling a general examination
of applicants for license to teach in the
public schools for Friday and Saturday,
June 17th and 18th.
As a number of new branches have
been added in recent years to the re
quired qualifications one day has been
found inadequate for applicants to pre
pare creditable papers. In keeping
with more extended time allowed in
other states, Georgia has set two days
for the examination on this year, the
first time more than one day has been
granted.
The state commissioner recommends
preparatory work for the examination
on Page’s “Theory and Practice of
Teaching,” Roark’s “Methods in Ed
ucation,” some history of Education,
and the text books of the common
school curriculum as adopted by the
state school-book board. It is sug
gested that some other work will be in
dicated by advice to be sent out in a few
days. Teachers are expected to study
some authors represented in the Lee
Reader Series, and this year’s institute
and examination will contain some
work on the writings of Longfellow,
Irving, Scott, Macauley, and Grady.
It is planned to hold a month’s teach
ers’ normal institute here this yoar.
The full plan will be announced next
week. The institute, however, will
embrace the second week in June, at
any rate —the examination occurring on
Friday and Saturday of that week.
Every teacher in the county must at
tend the institute and every prospec
tive applicant should certainly take ad
vantage of the pre-examination training
which is provided for in the institute
normal.
A prize of a selected $25 library of
fered by the county board to the coun
try school making the greatest im
provements during the last year upon its
school building was awarded to Air-
Line school in Glade district. The prize
was offered again for the next year.
Mr. Elbert Green,
A brother of Messrs. Melvin and Robt.
Green of this ‘county, and formerly a
resident of the upper part of the county,
died on Thursday of last week and was
buried Saturday in Alabama, where he
moved several years ago. He was
about 35 years of age and had many
relatives and friends in this section who
received the sad intelligence of his death
with sorrow.
’'Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident, is narrated by
John Oliver, of Philadelphia, as follows:
“I was m an awful condition. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in back
and sides, no appetite, growing weaker
day by day. Three physicians had
given me up. Then I was advised to
use Electric Bitters; to my great joy,
the first bottle made a decided im
provement. I continued their use for
three weeks, and am now a well man.
I know they robbed the grave of an
other victim.” No one. should fail to
try them. Only 50 cents. Guaranteed,
and for sale by M. C. Brown, and Dr. J.
B. George, druggists.

The Human Lottery
“Ah, if only I •were beautiful
bow happy life would be."
Many a forlorn maid has said this as she
looked into the mirror. For beauty women
have sacrificed home, love and friends. It is
the one possession in the lottery of human
life which women would not refuse
. .BRADFIELDS
Female Regulator
for young girls on the threshold of woman
hood, has been invaluable. When they be
come pale and languid, the eyes dull,
aching head, feet and hands cold, appetite
gone or abnormal, obstructed periods and
painful menses, and their systems general
ly run down, they need building up, and
their blood needs cleansing.
Bradfield’s Female Regulator for women
is particularly valuable and useful owing
to its tonic properties to build up the sys
tem, and as a regulator of the menstrual
flows. Painful, obstructed and suppressed
menstruation permanently relieved and all
diseases peculiar to her genital organs are
cured by it.
Regulator clears the complexion, bright
ens the eye, sharpens the appetite, removes
muddy anq blotcnedconditions of the skin
and cures sick headache to a certainty by
removing the cause.

homa country from the effects of inju
ries received in a shooting affair, was

A Remedy That No One Is
Afraid To Take.
Dr. Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup
has been used in thousands of homes for
fifty-two years with perfect confidence
and the most remarkable results.
The great success of this remedy is due
to the fact that its formula (which con
sists of Buchu, Hydrangea, Mandrake,
Yellow Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilla,
Gentian, Senna and lodide of Potassium)
has been freely published.
Doctors and Druggists everywhere do
not hesitate to recommend a preparation
which they know contains the best
known remedies for correcting all irreg
ularities of the Liver, Kidneys or Blood,
and the diseases caused by the failure of
these functions to perform their proper
work.
Thousands of sick ones to whom life
has been a burden have written grateful
letters that others might profit by their
experience.
Blooming Grove, Tex., Nov. 13,1902.
I was suffering terribly with indigestion and
kidney trouble and sent to my druggist for
something to relieve me.
As he sent me a package of Dr. Thacher’s
Liver and Blood Syrup I concluded to try it,
and now I am deeply grateful to my druggist
as well as to you.
I had been a sufferer from these things and
a general run-down condition for ten years,
and had only received temporary relief from
other medicines. But after using not quite two
packages of your Liver and Blood Syrup I feel
as stout and hearty as I ever did in my life, and
lam satisfied that lam entirely cured. I feel
no symptoms w’hatever of kidney trouble, and
my digestion is as good as any living man’s.
I can now eat whatever I choose.
I never had any remedy give me such quick
and permanent relief, and I can not put a cor
rect estimate on the value your medicine has
been to me. I would not take any amount of
money for it. Very gratefully yours
J. C. BROWN.
If you need a medicine write to-day for a
free sample bottle and “Dr. Thacher’s

We simply ask you to try it at our ex
pense. We know what it will do.
