When Javelle water is used, this precau-
ton is not necessary; but with the chic

In these days of light plate, modestly
decorated china, and simple glassware
the makeup of the table can not be too
simple or severe. Everything, whether
in the menu or decoration, which towers
in bulk above fifteen inches, is denomi-
mated lond and in no way worthy of coun
tenance. Candelabras, so generally used
OF late, are.losing caste, but ifpersisted in
for the sake illuminating purposes, the
single standard is preferred to a branch
OF candles, with or without shades. In
floral designs the fiat relief prevails, the
latitude of which depends on the dimen-
sion ofthe mahogany. There is nothing
prettier than a PLAGUE Of field flowers,
say pansieS, primroses, marguerites,

ONE OF A FAMILY.

One of the enemies that beset humani-
ty in every cline is biliousness. There
are boys of certain temperament, com
menclng life, quiet, rather deliberate in
manner, whom the South Carolina ma
tron will designate as "brashea boy"
and that boy has a cream colored skin,
a phlegmatic disposition, and a torpid
hver. He will be a fine fellow, and
rightly reared will be far-seeing, of ex-
cellent judgement, talented, slow to act,
but terrible when reused, and the fine
fellow will always suffer, from torpid liz
CT. In the morning he can unfortunate
ly drink fiery drink perhaps, but he
has no appetite for solid food. When
his tongue is not rough it is white and
turred, and hardly at any time in good
order. The LADIES JOURNAL has
known, indeed, has had the care of a
"brashea boy for some years and
would like to call council of mothers
concerning the little remedies, which Oft
en- set them right for time. A watchful
mother will seek to keep the lad right
with s1mpleS, such as charcoal and svr-
up, giving ateaSpoontul and half each
night before resting, it will act like a
dose of calomel, without any of the bad
effects of calomel, but you must give an
aperlent after the third day, little salts
or settler will do. If the aperient is
neglected, the impurities of the blood
and body gathered by the charcoal will
do harm.
We shall take pleasure in printing the
remedies that mothers use for Billions
ness IN the early fall and spring and
hopeto hear from them in numbers

pies that will keep the dear ones about

Potatoes Ready Peeled. An American

f0tat0eS He06y Peeled. An American
gentleman residing in France writes
Potato culture is likely to receive a new
impetus since the plan of selling them
peeled, sliced and dried. like certain
fruits, seems to be the taste of the ex-
port market. The drying of the potatoes
can follow the period of the desiccation
OF fruit The method obviates decav
and termination of the tuber, and &C.
cupying less volume, transport will be
cheaper and less difficult. The potatoes
are peeled by machinery; next carefully
washed, sliced in rounds and left for
twenty minutes in strong solution of
kitchen salt. The brine induces frmness
IN the slices and prevents their chang
ing coIor-thus securing what sulphur
does tor fruits. Later the cuttings are
left to drain, placed in the drying appara-
tuS on horde shelves and submitted TO a
temperature varying from 176 tic 1914 de-
greeS Fahrenheit. They must remain a
little longer in this hot bath than fruit.
Before using, the slices have to be steep
ed twelve to fifteen hours in water, when
they will become as fresh and as Aavo,v
as new potatoes.

Both as being less in the aggregate

time a year before, showing decided
increase. A feature in the present
circumstances is that loans pay but

high. This lie causing national banks
to reduce their circulation, AZ their
bonds are called in, inttsad OF replac-
ing them by buying new bonds. Some
OF them are depositipg money instead
Of bonds; in January $2,5OO,000 was

regards the Treasury's statement as
less favorable than anticipated, and to
the public any setback or apparent
lack OF security during coming months
is unwelcome aud disappointing. Pre-.
dictions, which that paper does not
coincide in, are made that the gold in

corning the fall in silver; "The Lon

follows upon the same subject,
referring to Mr.. Beck and his f,llowers
The honorable gentlemen will

America cannot by words, votes or

The Disrepn1abIe Concern,

Atlanta Constitution: There is sbso-
lutely nothing in the letters OF Attor-
ney-General Garland, CT Isham q.
Harrie, of Gen. Joseph Z. Johnston or
Of any other SoItherner connected
with the enterprise calculated to show
a desire or purpose 20 use their Off
cial positions for promoting this Pan
Electric affair. No honest man can
see anything wong in these letters;
no honest man can suppose the promi'
nent Democrats, whose names have
been drawn from the letter-books of
the Rogers family by the active agent,
Of the Bell-Gould monopoly, sreswind-
lers and corruptionists. Atthe same
time there can be no Doubt that they
have placed themselves and the ad-
ministration in a most awkward posi-
ton. They have created scandal in
the Democratic party, and they owe it
to the country and to the party to
promptly divorce themselves from the
beautiful and distinguished Rogers
family. The PAn-Electric, which is
only another name for the Rogers
family, should be left % shift jr itself,
so far al the Democratic stockholders
in the affair are concerned. AS the
head and front OF the sickly corpora
ton has turned over t the Bell. Gould
monopoly, the democratic holders OF
stock should lose no time in returning
to the Rogers family all the shares
they have acquired in this disreputa-
bic concern, which seems to be made
up of poets, imbeciles and Statesmen
Of the Democratic variety.
