Tiie outlook for the coming yea-r is, not at all promising in regard to lower ■ prices for food, making saving, spending, her so ed with simple food, simple pleasures and simple clothes. If we ail pull together we may hope to help conditions. The consumer must help to see that the farmer gets reasonable prices for his products and lie must endeavor to help tiie government to protect the con sumer from tiie extortion of unscrupu lous speculators. The great hue and cry of the people that the farmer is profiteering would cease if those who make it understood the real fact that the farmer is the poorest paid worker in this country; he averages 11 cents an hour. When the farmer strikes and refuses to sell or produce except for his own use we may appreciate something of the burden he has borne. Food carefully served, nicely pre pared and garnished is much more ap petizing than carelessly prepared food and thus there is less waste. Sauces, seasonings and various garnishes are important food adjuncts. One need not be niggardly or par simonious in serving food. The chil dren should have plenty of plain food and a growing boy or girl needs as much as an adult. The following sug gestions were given us during the war, but they are as necessary now with nearly everything higher in price than two years ago: Pack eggs before the fail prices make such packing too expensive. The sterile egg keeps much better titan the fertile. In some states the splendid custom of having a cockerel day and killing off all surplus stock is one to be recommended to every state in the Union. Eggs packed in one part of water-glass to ten parts of water wi.. keep indefinitely. Boil tiie water, cool it, add tiie water-glass. Thirty or .orty cents’ worth will cover 24 dozen eggs. Don’t order more perishable foods than can be wisely used. Plan meals ahead to avoid waste and by order ing ahead it helps you, the butcher and tiie grocery man. Think truly and thy thought Shall the world’s famine feed; Speak truly and each word of thine Shall be a fruitful seed: Live truly and thy life shall be A great and noble creed. • Horatius Bonar. INTERESTING SPICES AND CON DIM ENTS. Spices may be grouped into foui classes: Those which are the bark of the parent plant; f those which are itt fruit or flowers, those which are its root stocks and those which are its seeds. Cinnamon and cassia are closely re lated. The bark of the , cinnamon tree is usually stripped from the shoots when about two years old, which are fermented to make the stripping easier. Cassia buds are the undevel oped flowers of the cassia tree. The crop of both cinnamon and cassia are harvested from May to November. Be cause of the warm cordial effect of cinnamon, tea made from it is used for colic and nausea. Chicken fat is a most tasty fat; ev ery spoonful should be saved. The vanilla bean is contained in the pod or fruit of one of the orchids, a vine with spikes of large fragrant flowers. This plant is native to Mex ico. South America and Asia. Tiie flavor is so generally liked that the demand far exceeds tiie supply and other flavors similar to vanilla are used, as it is becoming more and more scarce. In China the Canton ginger Is fa mous for confections and flavoring, and is a great favorite in this country. It comes in small jars or packed in boxes as crystallized fruit. The active principle of horseradish, its volatile oil. is identical with its near relative, mustard. Horseradish while popularly considered merely a condiment, is used medicinally. It is so beneficial and stimulating to the digestive organs that it is often pre scribed as a tonic to create apoetite when a general run-down condition prevails. It is considered an excellent blood purifier and good for the kid neys. Mixed with honey it is a most efficacious cough remedy. Ginger and horseradish are tiie eliief representatives of tiie root stock type. These roots are known and grown in both hemispheres. The Amer ican colonies inherited the old Dutch and English uses of both for seasoning meats, pickles and the ginger root in preserves, sweetmeats, cakes and for medicinal uses. THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR, MT. VERNON, GEORGIA. NEW POINTS IN AUTUMN MODES THE handsome fur-trimmed suit shown in the accompanying pic ture includes, among other attractions, the newest points of tiie autumn styles. It begins by accepting the vogue for velours and contiuues to follow fashion’s signposts by button ing straight up the front from waist line to cilia and by adopting tiie high, rolling collar of fur. Its narrow belt of velours crosses at tiie front and but tons at each side in the manner gen erally approved for coats —the styles of the hour are written in its lines. But, with all this following of im portant phases of new modes, the de signer of this suit succeeded in be ing original by cutting tiie coat and fur trimming on unusual lines. The bottom of the coat at the front and In the Realm of Neckwear NECKWEAR is a broad term iliiit embraces many different kinds of neckpieces and matched sets—includ ing vestees and cuffs. Up to tiie pres ent time nothing new or unusual has made -its appearance in the realm of neckwear, but we may look for new developments soon, as. tiie holidays dawn over the horizon of fashion. It is impossible to predict how impor tant these particular accessories may become. At present organdie, in white and light colors, or lace and net, continue to make the dainty collar and vestee or collar and cult sets that enjoy an unabated popularity. These sets are displayed with the new suits and very often ecru or tan organdie replaces tiie pure white or light colors that have embellished summer clothes. Filet lace and the perennial “val" still hold first place, although other laces are gaining attention. These neck pieces tone up frocks and suits amaz ingly—it is not likely women will part with anything so becoming unless they can replace it with another they like as well. Many sets are made at home, as die manufacturers have placed hand rigs of organdie which make the work •asy, among the ready-made pieces. These handings are tucked or lace 'rimmed and come in pale colors and white. One may buy also net with rucks, puffs, lace insertions arid edg ngs which are easily made up into iecU wear. back is cut in a wide scallop and the fur burder is graduated in width— wide at the center of the scallop and narrowing toward the ends. Beaver is tiie fur employed on a light brown velours, but any of the short-haired furs might be used Instead on colors they look best with, as sealskin on taupe or squirrel on royal blue. The second suit, in tiie group is adapted to any of tiie wool suitings and has a coat cut Hngcr-tlp length, with skirt gathered on to tiie body. A panel in the back, outlined with em broidery, embroidered bands at tiie front and a high fur collar bring it up to the level of suits for formal wear, and made in sturdy materials it will prove very dependable for all-round wear. A collar and vest of net and luct appear in the picture. The collar is t straight piece of the ready-preparer material and this gives it (be propei adjustment on the neck—which It somewhat high at the hack. Tiie ves tee is extended below the walstlim and In this regard it differs from most vestees, but the little apron effect is pretty. Pall Hats Flamboyant. The oriental to hold sway In tiie hat realm. No somber shades are shown. Beading colors tire copper, royal and Algerian blue, mahogany, cerise, jade green, chow brown und canary yellow. Gaudy embroideries in soutache, wool, tinsel, metallic threads and celluloid or wooden heads carry out the eastern effect. The Hindu and Chinese coolie turbans are still much in evidence, as are the suiiitucrdhovei. i ties made of wooden shavings dyed In j gorgeous hues. The combination ol tiie shavings with duvefyn of a con trasting color is very popular. Trimmed With Drawn Work. Many of the voltes and georgette blouses are trimmed with drawn work i Small bends and elaborate handwork ; are also being used. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL sunwsom. Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D„ Teacher of English Bible in the Moodj Bible Institute of Chicago.) ((<£), 1920, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 26 REVIEW: SAUL, DAVID AND SOLO MON COMPARED. SELECTION FOR READING—PsaIm 72 GOLDEN TEXT—Man looketh on th, outward appearance, but the Lord look eth on the heart.—l Sam. 16:7. PRIMARY TOPlC—Stories About David JUNIOR TOPlC—Three Kings and How They Ruled. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Three Kings and Their Attitude Towari the Lord. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Faults and Excellencies of Saul, David and Solomon. It was the lesson committee’s thought thnt the three kings of the united kingdom should be compared, hut that would necessitate going hack about half way Into the preceding quarter, and since the time for review is so short. It would hardly be wise for any but the adult classes to go hack of the present quarter's lessons. If in the adult classes this should he done, the review should be rapid and confined to: 1. The charaeter of the king. 2. The chief events of his reign. 3. Ills success or failure, ns the case may he, and the reason therefor. 4. Lessons taught us. The better method for most teach ers and classes will he to let the les sons center in the two outstanding personalities' of David and Solomon, both ns a mental discipline and as a spiritual message. A good way Is to get the pupil to grasp the main facts of each lesson nnd then state Its lead ing lesson. Lesson for July 4. David’s zeal for God and faith In God made him cour ageous to meet Goliath. Ills good sense caused him to discard Saul's armor and use his own gifts. He went forth in the name of the Lord of hosts that nil tin* world might know that there was a God in Israel. Lesson for July 11. The friendship between Jonathan and David was based on genuine love. Rentuse of Ibis love Jonathan waived Ids personal rights to David, as a token of which he gave David bis court robe and equipment. Truly “Love seeketh not her own.” Lesson for July 18. David’s regard for Saul was due to (In* fact that God’s anointing oil had been placed upon him. The one upon whom God lifts placed bis Spirit should be rever enced, not because of what he Is him self, but because of God’s gift upon him. Lesson for July 25. David’s behav ior through the period of civil war be tween the bouses of Saul and David won the confidence of all the tribes, so that they came to Ilebron and made him their king. Lesson for August 1. The great, les son needed to be learned by nil men Is God’s holiness. His name and Insti tutions should be reverenced. Ignor ance or thoughtlessness will not save a man from the penalty of violating God's laws. Lesson for August 8. Justice and judgment were executed unto all the people when David wns established king. This is typical of the time when Christ, David's Son, shall reign in righteousness over all the earth. Lesson for August 15. David’s sor rows were occasioned by his sins. “Whatsoever a man sovveth that shall he also reap.” Lesson for August 22. Despite the awfulness of our sins, true penitence nnd confession will bring pardon. Lesson for August 29. Localise Sol omon put wisdom to do God’s will first, God gave him honor and riches In abundance. “Him that honoreth me, I will honor.” Lessen for September 5. A house is made sacred only as God’s presence sanctifies it. It was not Solomon’s words or his prayer that dedicated the temple;- It was the manifestation of a divine presence. Lesson for September 12. God’s gifts to Solomon made him to be great before the world. His fame gave him an unique opportunity to witness of God to the nations of the world. Lesson for September 19. Those who heed the advice of a father will escape all the sorrows and miseries of n drunkard. The Hardest Labor. Censing from labor, ns labor, Is not the point of Sunday observances; It Is ceasing from the labor of (in* world, to labor for God, to do his work, which Is tlie highest labor and the hardest labor; giving God a tithe of tin work, the first fruits of our time, ns n mark of resfieet and allegiance which we owe to him. —W. C. 10. New bolt. True Gentleness. True gentleness is founded on n sense of what we owe to him who made us, and to the common nature which we all share It arises from reflections on our own fallings and wants, and from Just views of the condition and duty of men. It Is native feeling heightened and Improved by principle. ; —Llalr. " Politeness. Politeness has been well defined nc benevolence in small things.—Macau lay.
