The Republican party of West Vir'

strengthen its party organization IN
every part of the State, and to meet
this onslaught the Democrats OF The
various counties r moving in the
matter of organizing clubs and asse-
Citations. To be up with the times
the Democrats of old Jeffersonshoufd
also actin this matter-act promptly,
theoretically and unitedly. We
therefore suggest that a meeting, to
consider this subject, be held at the
Courthouse in Charlestown, on Fri
day, February 9th, 1883, at q
o'clock, P. NJ. 1t is also advisable
that other towns and neighborhoods
of the county should take similar ac-
ton, and we hope they will move in
the matter, so that at an early day we
may be able to report effective work
ing Democratic organizations all ovel
the county.

Pan Cakes in Variety.

Cn cold winter mornings pan
cakes of all kinds hold an important
nIace at the breakfast table. The
cherished buckwheat cake, most
prominent.of all, from Thanksgiving
Day until early Spring is seldom abb
sent from the morning meal IN the
American household. When prop
erlv made, this is the most delicious
of all the griddle cakes, but it has
been against it when made from
yeast or risen over night that it was
difficult to make light and sweet, and
that disagreeable effects frequently
followed its eating. 1t is found that
by the use of the Royal Baking Pow
der to raise the batter these objec-
lions have been entirely overcome,
and that buckwheat cakes are made
a most delicious food, light, sweet,
tender and perfectly wholesome, that
can be eaten by anyone without the
slightest digestive inconvenience
Once tested from the following re-
ceipt no other will be used: Two
cups of huckwheat, one cup of wheat
flour, two tablespoons of Royal Bak-
ing Powder, one-half teaspoonful of
salt, all sifted well together. Mix
with milk into a thin batter and bake
at once on a hot griddle.
The purest and richest syrup is
made by dissolving sugar in the pro-
portion of three pounds of sugar to
one pint of water. Many persons
prefer the favor of syrup made of
| Orleans sugar to that made of white.
Rice griddlc cakes are very de-
licious. The rice is cooked until per-
fectly soft, drained dry, mashed
with 4 spoon until the grains are
well broken up. For each cupful of
rice take two eggs, one pint of milk,
one heaping teaspoonful of Royal
Baking Powder. one-half teaspoonfnl
of salt, and flour enough to make a
thin batter.
For hominy cakes take two cupfuls
of cooked hominy, and crush it with
a potato-masher until il is a smooth
mass. Add one level teaspoonful of
salt, two teaspoonsful of Royal Bak-
ing Powder. and one cupful of flour.
Stir together; then add by degrees
one quart of milk, and lastly three
well beaten eggs. Bake in thin cakes.
Very delicate and delicious cakes
are made by allowing two teaspoons
full of Royal Baking Powder and
one-half teaspoonful of salt to one
quart of milk, and sufficient corn
meal, mixing all into Il smooth, thin
batter; no eggs or butter are used
for these. The cakes bake quickly
to a rich deep brown, and are ex-
tremely tender and light.
A very delicious, sweet pan. cake
is made by taking one pint of sweet
milk, four eggs, two tablespoonsful
of powdered sugar, two tablespoons
full of melted butter, n teaspoon
full of Royal Baking Powder, and
-four enough to make a moderately
thin batter. Beat the eggs, white
and yolks separately, until we'll
frothed, stir the butter, sugar, and
one cupfuI of -four, into which the
baking powder has been mixed, into
the yolks, then add the milk. If
needed, add more -four. Bake in
small cakes, butter each one as it
comes from the fire. place four in a
pile, with very thin layers of any
kind of sweet jelly between, and
powdered sugar over the top. They
should be baked very thin and four
served to each person.

The noble work done by u fire.
men last Saturday night, and the eff

all praise, and this the entire COM

aged, we do not think the community

tanning and keeping up a good fire

this line, that whilst every man in the
community may not be an acttUe fire.

and there are many of them, may
be contributing members of the de-

sustain it in an efficient and credita-
BILE manner. Both companies, We be-
lieve, have an honorary membership
feature, by which contributing mem
bers are enrolled upon the payment
of the nominal sum of 81 per annum.
These rolls should include every mar
(and M too, for that matter) OF
sufficient ability to pay that amount,
and not already enrolled as IN active

sented to our people, and we scarcely
think there are any in reasonable cir
chmstances who will hesitate to enroll
and pay this small annual fee.
