harder still to define, but easily recognized
under the name of charm. Many middle
aged and elderly women possess this at
tribute in so large measure, that their
very look is a benediction. and we come
from their presence helped and cheered,
when perhaps very little has been SAID.
They have simply beamed upon us, and
their sunshine has had it's own mellOWlng
effect. Worry is a great producer OF
wrinkles, the most mastery workman
that time employs to deface and mar
what ought to take on new dignity and
loveliness as the years goby. Doyou ever
realize, my fretted sister, that worry is
sin, tempting of divine providence, a
distrust ofGod's love? Doyour best, pray
your utmost, and leave the results OF
your life to God. What you can do for
your home, yourself, your children, your
friends-that and that only do, bewaring
of needless overwork. And if work you
must, beyond your strength, even then do
not add worry to the sum OF the days
burden. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof"

Recipes.

SCOLLOPED EGGs.-BOil eight eggs until
they are hard; let them get quite cold
but do not put them in water to cool
them; take them out of the shells and
slice them; butter a baking dish, and
sprinkle cracker crumbs over the bottom;
put on this layer of eggs, and over it
sprinkle pepper, salt, Jumps ofbutter, and
few tablespoonfuls of cream; add an
other layer of crumbs, then of the eggs
and seasonings till all are used up. Over
all sprinkle cracker crumbs and a little
grated cheese. Bake until it is light
brown, and serve at once.
CHICKEN SALAD.-Boil the chicken until
tender, when cold cut into small pieces !;
mix with celery, cut into pieces about the
size of the chicken. Pour over it may
onnaise dressing made as follows: A
tablespoonful of mustard, one OF sugar,
one-tenth of teaspoonful of cayenne, one
teaspoonful of salt, the yolks of three un-
cooked eggs, the juice of half lemon,
quarter of cupful OF vinegar, pint of
oil and a cupful of whipped cream. Beat
the yolks and dry ingredients until they
are very light and thick, with either a sill
yer or wooden spoon, or, better still,
with Dover beater of second size. The
bowl in which the dressing is madeshould
be set in a pan of ice water during the
beating Add a few drops of oil at time
until the dressing becomes very thick and
rather hard. After it has reached this
stage the oil can be added more rapidly.
When it gets SO thick that the batter
turns hard, add little vinegar. When
the last of the oil and vinegar has been
added it should be very thick. Now add
the lemon juice and whipped cream. and
place on ice fora few hours, unless you are
ready to use it. The cream may be omit
ted without injury.

The Secret of Physical Beauty

The secret of physical beauty is not in
external applications to the skin. 1t is in
fresh air, exercise, cleanliness, stout shoes,
good food, few drugs, plenty OF sleep, a
good conscience and a quiet mind. The
two latter are factors quite as important
as any of the former in developing the re-
pose and sweetness of expression. which
impart to faces a quality hard to analyze,

Our Summer Reading.

is to spend much more time in reading
than in any other season of the year,
After months of worry and hurry OF
a busy season, driven with the re-
mOrseless gods of ones ordinary and
inevitable work, no more delightful re-
Taxation can be found than the cOmpan-
ionship of our favorite books. The priv
ilege is well earned.
We are led to note, however, the gener-
al character of this summer reading. 1t
may be safely said thatSof all the books
carried by our friends on their vacation,
to the seaside and mountains, nine-tenths
are novels Well, what of that, you say
Nothing at ALL The time has long gone
by when novel reading of itself is cOnsid-
cred sinful Some of our best literature
in which the highest ideals OF our man
hood and wOmanhOOd are delineated,
and which call forth the highest aspira-
tiOns of our better nature, are found in
works of fiction. 1t is not the fiction it.
self, but the choire of it that makes mis-
chief with our young people and those
who have not learned wisdom in the Sc
lection.
A druggist is required to label every
bottle and package of deadly drugs which
he sells as poison, and he we'll knows the
failure to comply with this law would sub

summer by our young people, could bt

poisonous books are freely sold to those
who have cultivated taste for this un-
healthy literature.
How to make wise selection of novels
and the number to be read, Qet the last
be made emphatic is a question OF very
serious Importance. Some one has rec
commended that we keep list OF all tht
books we read, and if half of them arr
novels, we are spending our time to poor
advantage.
One may say: "But must" keep ul
with all the new and popular novels O
the day. How is that possible in the days
of multitudinous novel making? 1t is
quite useless to try. The newspaper re
views are sufficient to give general idea
of all they are worth, even to the doubt

Ward, Preacher" A newspaper educa
tion nowadays is worth great deal
and yet this scrappy reading may be car
ried to an excess to the exclusion OfsOme
thing more solid and lasting. If one hal
read with profit the standard works o
Dickens, Thackery and Scott, it is mor'
difficult to turn to the average mOderI
novel with any special relish. A gOoC
novel, however, written by some of oul
popular modern novelists, who always
write what is worth reading, is always tc
be welcomed, and can be read with great
pleasure and profit, but the promiscuous
reading of tenth-rate novels, and the ex-
cessive time devoted to it, cannot be too
strongly denounced.
How much depends on the parent that
a wise direction may be given to son or
daughter in the choice of their reading, it
is difficult to imagine.

ALBANY, TEX, Jan. 18.-Messrs.
Holstein Bros. +, large rauchmen of this
county, shipped to-day from this place
to ST. Louis four cars of sorghum-fed
beef steers and one car of fine mutton.
This lot of stock they have been feeding
on sorghum and cotton seed for some
time and consequently they are in fine
condition.
Mr.. Tom Smith, tile well known
ranchman and breeder of thoroughbred
stock, who recently brought fine lot of
registered Hereford bulls to this place,
mention of which was made in THE GA
zETTE recently, has about disposed of
them all, and will return soon to his
home at Crete, III. Mr.. Smith is a vet
eran of many years experience
in the fine stock business,
and regards the cattle business
as in q healthier condition than
for many years past. He thinks, though,
that our stockmen must give more atten-
ton to grading up and improving their
stock in order to compete with the East
ern and Northern cattlemen.

all these numerous mounds of stone was

and his mother-in-law had been q
woman of uncommon dimensions-and 1
set out confident that a neat fit in the ar
tlcie desired would answer my message.
But as soon as I struck the village I saw
some of the boys I knew, and / told
them what had happened. So they took
me up to the saloon and soothed my sor-
rows with some spiritual consolation.
Then we all went out together and tele-
graphed for a coffin. That made us
thirsty, and we got the telegraph opera
tor to join US and went back to the sa-
loon anu drank to the memory of the vir-
tues of the deceased. Not wishing to
have any doubt about the coffin business,
we went and telegraphed again. Then
we sought the saloon again and drank
to the late mother-in-law' s innoc-
uous desuetude We had four or five
rounds on that, and this inspired me with
such zeal FOR the decent burial of my
cousin IS relative by marriage that 1 tele-
graphed for coffin once more All the
boys went with me, OF course, to see that
l did it correctly. That meant more
drinks, and the drinks manifested their
effect in new impulse of zeal and new
telegram. We oscillated between the
saloon and the telegraph station until
none of us knew whose coffin we were
telegraphing for. or remembered what
was the matter with my cousin IS mother
in-law. =
fNext morning my cousin drove down
to the village to look for me, and found
about twenty-five collins waiting for him.
Several undertakes were with them, and
some reporters and doctors, who wanted
to investigate the epidemic.
1.-THE collins were of all sorts and sizes,
and none of them fitted my cousin IS
mother-in-law So he got fellow who
could carpenter little to put a rough
wooden box together, and the old lady
had to be buried in that, as it was hot
weather and she couldn It wait until
proper coffin was sent for. Besides, my
cousin thought he bad invested as much
money in that line as he could spare. [
don It know what he did with the collec-
ton. He stored them UP in an clubhouse,
and talked of using them for winter fuel.
But long before winter [ left those parts
