The Jaw allowing our Courty Com,
missiJHcrS to borrow money is not by
any mcam& sufficient to crafty tl.c
cOuntys creditors The only thing
We can borrow money for secms to be
current expenses, with the lmdcrstan
ding that it is to ho returned out Of
the taxes accruing during tho fiscal
year in which the loan IL made. This
is only very small advantage. If
the county were allowed to borrow.
and keep it two or three years, 1t
would answer every purpose, but the
Commissioners arc hampcrcd by the
straight-laced laws which re.
quiro money to be used strictly for
the purpose for which it was levied.
The leyies are all based on what may
be termed guessed work. The ox-
peuses Of one year are estimated ac-
cording to the eXpondcs Of apast year,
but freshets and other such disasters
cannot be taken into account, so they
run uneven. The law leaves much to
the discretion Of county commissioners
except in the fnances-tho very thing
where they should have the most.
It is just as bad on a county to be-
come involved as for an individual.
1t is expensive. Pickens County has
t. pay now more thar Is per cent
more for work; thGn she would, if she
had themonoy 70 pay spot cash. The
CountyCommi Isioners ought to be al-
lowed a contingent fund of at elast
$4,000, to draw on in cases Of emcr-
goncy. In the long ran it would be
a great saving to taxpayers. |

Hints on Jelly Making.

Failures in jelly making are due to several
causes: One, the fruit, which may have been
too sweet and not freshly picked, or tie Jelly
may have been boiled just little too long.
The latter is the most frequent cause OF fail
ure Some kind of fruit, and that very fresh
and nicely prepared. jellies quickly, perhaps
after ten minutes bo!linE, and if boiled past
this point will never again coagulate. Over
boiling causes the juice to lose its property
of gelatiniZing, and produces a mucilaginous
or gummy substance
If the fruit seems to yield larger quantity
of juice than usual, an extra ounce or two Of
sugar should be used, as the given amount
will not be sufficient TO absorb the natural
water in the fruit and the jelly will not be
gelatinous, and will remain syrup, even
after long continuous boiling The second
boiling seldom does any good The only safe
way is to begin to try the jelly after five
minutes boiling. Put teaspoonful into
saucer, place it on the ice for a moment to
cool If jelly like film forms quickly over
the top it is almost done; fire minutes more
will finish it, If this film is quite tough, it
Is done
The cookery Of Jelly is difficult and de-
serves more attention than it usually re-
ceives. The following recipe may be applied
to all kinds OF fruits:
Select curTants that have been freshly
picked and are not too ripe If they are
sandy, wash, but do not stem. Mash a small
quantity at time in stone jar with a
wooden potato masber; squeeze through a
coarse bag and then drip again through
a flannel bag, without pressure, that the
juice may be perfectly clear. Measure it
and turn it into porcelain lined kettle
Stand over a brisk fire and boil rapidly for
twenty minutes Put the sugar, allowing
one pound to every pint Of juice, in earthen
dishes, and then tn-the oven to heat, add it

A SouSce of Awkwapdness.

l have seen women who would spread
newspaper OF the table, place the disbeshap-
hazard, put on the cans of salt and pepper
which they used in the kitchen, and clap on
the loaf of bread, with the kitchen knife be
side it, for those to help themselves who
wished. This, too, in families who made
precautions 10 education and refinement.
The consequence, in such cases, is that the
children dislike to mingle with those of their
associates who are taught more elegant man.
ners and customs, and when obliged to be in
their company, or that of their elders, they
are awkward, i'll at ease, and altogether un-
happy In a family where neatness and
taste are displayed in the ordinary course of
everyday life, the members are thoroughly
at ease in any society. Children who are
early taught the correct use of knife, fork
and spoon, the quietest mode of eating, the
constant use of the napkin, and attention to
the minutest details of table etiquette, will
become 80 habituated to these seemingly
small things, that when they are called upon
to entertain friends at lunch or dinner, they
will do 80 with an ease and gYace that will be
perfectly natural, and excite the admiration
of those whom they are DESTROYS of pleasing.
There would then be no necessity for the
anxious and oft repeated query: What shall
| have for lunch tomorrow when Mr.. and
Mrs. Blank come home3 How shall set the
table to make it look observation-disclosures S.

4 Mistaken Father.

Many a father directs all his affection and
anxiety for his children into the ono channel
of accommodating wealth, in the face of the
factthat golden doors do not shut out death
and sickness, nor do they shut in cheerful
ness and contentment. Poverty is sorrow,
but wealth is not happiness. Moreover, in
America fortunes are made so rapidly and
lost so unexpectedly that a man cannot be
sure of a competency for even a few years,
and none can he confident of securing wealth
to his children throughout the whole of their
lives But it is possible for every man of
means to give his childyeI an equivalent of
wealth which no change Of fortune can
affect, and which shall guarantee to girl or
boy a certain competency.
To educate child SO that she can, if neces-
sary, be self supporting, is the plain duty of
every parent, rich or poor. A woman who
can face the world and feel herself equal to
any fate that may befall her, is richer than
if she possess, instead, fortune in govern
ment boDds-Frances Fisher Wood
