To CUT OUT AND kEEP.-lt your coal
fire is low, throw on a tablespoonful of
salt, and it will help it very much. A
little ginger put into sausage meat i'm
proves the flavor. In icing cakes, dip
the knife frequently into cold water
In boiling meat for soup, use cold water
to extract its juice. If the meat is
wanted for itself alone, plunge in boil
ing water at once. You can get;l bottle
or barrel of oil off any carpet or wooden
stuff by applying dry buckWheat plen-
tifully and faithfully. Neverput water
to such a grease spot, or liquid OF any
kind. Broil steak without sailing: Salt
draws the juices in cooking; it is de-
sirable to keep these in it possible.
Cook over hot fire, turning frequently,
soaring on both sides. Place on plat
ter: salt and pepper to taste. Beef
having tendency to be tough can be
made very palatab bic by stewlng gently
for two hours, pepper and salt, taking
out pint OF the liquid when half done,
and letting the rest boil into the meat.
Brown the meat in the pot. After tax
ing up, make a gravy OF the pint OF
LIQUID saved. A small piece OF charcoal
in the pot with boiling cabbage removes
the smell. Clean oilcloth with milk
and water a brush and soap will ruin
them. Tumblers that have had milk in
them should never be put in hot water.
4 spoonful of stewed tomatoes In the
gravy of either roasted OF fried meats
IS an improvement. The skin Of a boiled
egg is the most etficaciOuS remedy that
can be applied to a boil. Peel it care
fully, wet and apply it to the part at
fected. 1t will draw Off the matter and
relieve the soreness.-[ Selected.

Iuniata County We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
Mr.. Samuel Yohn, of Turbett town
ship, had his right thumb broken on
Tuesday of last week, while attempting
to unlock a wagon, caused by the handle
on which the thumb was resting flying
out off the rachel and striking against
cross piece on the wagon bed.
Mr.. Benjamin Stimmel, of Port Royal
died Sunday night. He ate hearty
breakfast Sunday morning, walked out
a while and when he returned to his
house he was seized with an apoplectc
stroke and died that night about IL
o'clock. Mr.. Stimmel was about 70
years old, and was respected by the COM
munity in which he lived.-Dem. and
Register.
One night last week some nefarious
person or persons gained an entrance in
to the smoke-house of Mr.. Dillman, who
resides along the pike, about one and q
half miles north of town. The smoke
house contained four hams, three should
ers, one fitch and backbone, all of
which were taken except the backbone.
This is rather q serious loss to Mr.. d.
who is laboring man.
Two of Weller's sons, on the Island,
went out few days ago to catch musk
rats. Among the implements of des-
truction was an axe. AS the boys
marched, Indian fashion, that is, one
behind the other-suddenly the one that
had the axe across his shoulder stopped
and the boy behind walked up till his
head struck the bit. An ugly cash was
cut in his forehead.
The accident Mr.. Jacob Sulouff met
with on Tuesday of last week was Sc
rious one, and it is miracle that it
did not prove fatal. 1t seems he was en-
gagged in hauling logs, and while his
team was off with load, he was at
tempting to jack up log that measured
q feet across, when he slipped and fell
and the log rolled on him from the left
knee to the hip, where fortunately it re-
manned stationary. He cried for help
for some ten minutes, in the meantime
suffering most excruciating agony. At
last Mrs John Chapple and another wo-
man heard his cries, went to his relief,
and with the teamsters who just then
returned, released him from his perilous
situation. He was under the log for
fully Is minutes. Besides the injury sto
his leg and hip, his system was so shock
ed that he could not be removed to his
home, but has been lying since at his
farm house beyond Horningtown.

n Etiquette no longer requires a gentle.
IMAM to tip his hat, and bob his head
like cork In the water, when meeting
q lady acquaintance on the streets. A
polite bow, not too stiff nor profound,
Is the latest.
The farmers made good use of the
jsleighing on last Wednesday and Thurs
day. A large amount of produce was
hauled down, and the coal piles of the
Newport dealers were called on for re-
turn loads.
The Fleming property,in Carroll town
ship, was sold by the Administrators to
David Sweger, for 1925. The property
is for rent.

For THE TINES.
Penn Township Letter.

Mr.. EDITOR ALLOW me to make contri-
button once more for our as we'll as your paper.
Your contributor has been silent ever since his
bee stealing, and as he has completely recover
ed from the injuries he received on that occa
sion will now attempt to furnish few items
for the public. In the first place l notice at
times, locals, praising your Bloomfield Fur
Company. Yes, honor to them, but not all the
honor. We are having several agencies In our
township that are working the business up
very lively. After the sporting companies of
Duncannon had almost exhausted the fox
chase by the many they had run down and
killed, Mr.. e. II. Branyan, one of our citizens
tried trapping, and has succeeded in capturing
five of the sly old Reynards. ESQ old that they
needed set of artificial teeth.) Others are
working up the business successfully among
them our friend h. @. Branyan.
Our town-Duncannon, had a very serious
fire on Monday night. The hardware store of
John r. Cromleigh, the store of s. Rife and
four dwelling houses were entirely destroyed.
Mr.. Rife's goods were nearly all saved Mr.
Cromleigh's nearly all lost but covered by
insurance. Cause of fire was from chimney
that caught from the kitchen stove in the after
noon and broke out in the night.
Quite number of changes are taking place
among our farmers this spring. Mr.. j. M.
White intends to quit his farm and with that
view will sell his large amount of personal
property and retire TO less active pursuit.
He proposes to make changes at the old Galley
homestead and to make that his home.
The property belonging to the Dunkle heirs,
known as the Harper farm was sold some time
ago to John Kutz for $4,000, and Mr.. Kutz
will again take his place among us after an
absence of several years. A change occurs at
the old Branyan farm, and a large sale will be
held there where l suppose one never was
before. A. G. White is making preparations
for building another bain-a White barn of
course
Our schools are all supposed TO be in a
flourishing condition as the visits of the patrons
and those interested in educational matters
fully testify. In this letter we extend an invi-
tation to all our friends to call and see us.
The matrimonial market bids fair to be
brisk and active in this Cove ere the storms of
another winter blow over it. Our young friend
A. r. White led off at the opening of the
season and to him and lady and all who follow
we wish a long, happy life. AS my letters
come only at long intervals had better change
my name from Dave to SELDOM.

Lost Good Aorse.-william Moretz, of

Lost Good Horse.- William Moretz, of
Howe township, lost a valuable horse a
few days ago. In unhitching the horse
from the team, which had been hauling
wood, the single-tree fell on the animals
heels, frightening him, and he started to
run away from what he instinctively felt
was danger. Heedlessly he plunged
along, and rushing into a gutter fell and
broke leg, necessitating his killing in
order to terminate his unbelievable
misery.--NeWs.
