Away.

Away.
William Bren died yesterday afternoon
at 6 o'clock at St. Joseph's Infirmary. He
was attacked with slight fever while at
his office Saturday afternoon, but did not
consider it dangerous. He went to his room
at the inirmary, thinking he would be
out again the next day, but in
his feeble condition the fever had
it's sway, and he failed to recover.
He had been sufferer for years. and only
a few weeks ago he partially recovered
from severe attack of the disease from
which he suffered. His death was the re-
suit of acute rheumatic troubles and fever.

THE GROWING CROPS.
The Cotton and Rice Outlook-Both
Crops in Fine Condition.

the Cotton and Rice Outlook-Both
Crops in Fine Condition.
The reports from the growing cotton
crop continues excellent aud the prospects
at the present time are that there will be a
larger yield in South Georgia and Florida
than for many years. The crop is con-
siderably late as yet, but it has greatly i'm
proved in the last three weeks.
The first bale of the new crop last season
was received July p from Thomas county.
1t is believed that 1t will be we'll into Au-
gust before new bale of well matured cot
ton will arrive here, and factors are not ex-
pecting any rush of business before the lat
ter part of September.
There are very few letters coming TO
factors with news as to the crop, but what
advices have been received are quite salts
| factory. In some sections the reports are
that the stalk is growing very tall, and
with continued favorable weather it is be-
lieved that that they will be more fruitful
than present indications With tall stalk
as a rule. the plant is more apt to run into
leaves, but in case of rain storms the open
bolls are better protected than If the plant
was short and stumpy, thereby insuriug a
cleaner crop, which is even better than too
much of the low grade cotton stained by
rain and sand.
The reports from long staple cotton or
Floridas were never better, aud it is be-
lieved that there has been some increase in
the acreage in some sections. There are a
few reports of its being somewhat grassy
in spots, where the rains we're more con-
tinuous than in other places
There is no change in the advices as to the
condition of the rice crop, which continues
to grow splendidly and seems to be in a very
healthy state, giving promise OF very good
yield, provided storms and freshets do not
come. The reports from the louisiana rice
are also much better than they were some
time ago, notwithstanding the heavy dam
ages il sustained in the early spring, and it
is predicted now that the yield will be con-
sderably more than was expected some
forty or fifty days ago, and it is believed
that the reports at that time were greatly
exaggerated.

sometimes remiss inthis cultivation. they

CURRANT JELLY.

This week the fruit should be at its
height for jelly-making. The Fourth of
July is as closely connected with the car
rant bush crops as it is with Roman can
dies and red fire in the boys calendar. If
you have a very large quantity of c~urrants,
without cost, simply pound them in bowls
and jars, without stripping them from
their stems. When yon have to purchase
them at market prices q more economical
way is to stem them all and throw the
fruit into large stone jars. Set these jars
into boiling water in a wash kettle and let
the fruit coddle until the juice flows freely
under pressure with a wooden spoon. Run
the coddled fruit through = jelly bag Of
iinen-the stuff that comes for pudding
bags serves perfectlY-bnt do not squeeze
the bag. Press it gently, stroking it with
finger and thumb until all the clear juice
has run cut. Then squeeze the bag dry
into another bowl, keeping this last cloud
ed juice quite separate. II you wish to
put all into the jelly, YOU will have to run
the clouded stuff through 4 flannel bag,
which viii retain all the sediment. But it is
more economically used in making rasp-
berry jam at the same time with jelly. We
viii consider this as settled aud 20 take uF
the clear Juice again. Measure it in a pint
dipper, adding a pound OF sugar to every
pint. Let it stand in c~artlen or china
bowls or tnreens until the sugar is all
colored and beginning to dissolve. Then
put it over the fire in a well secured bell
metal preserving kettle, cook for 20 min-
utes after it begins to boil, skimming free
ly, and it will be a perfect jelly, if your
entrants have not been over-ripe. Ne
longer cooking than 90 minutes will do
any good, however, if they are MOI right.
Too long cooking makes the jelly go to
candy, or to mere syrup-the jelly mo
ment'' is reached in 20 minutes.

PERFECT

"Do you believe a nineteenth century
girl could be so trained from childhood in
healthful living as to arrive at a perfect
and complete physical womanhood ?"
II do, if she be simply allowed to follow
out her own wise inherent instincts for air
dirt, and sunshine in childhood, liberty and
activity in girlhood; is not starved in
boarding school through that part of her
life when she needs most nourishment, and
handicapped with burdensome attire. /
would let a girl eat six times a day if she
were hungry, and in the night as we'll.
Boarding school diet and regulations make
rules for the many apply to the individual,
and set up reason against instinct with dis
astrous effect. The girls who are scolded
for being toInboys in childhood, for chasing
butterflies instead of sewing samplers,
make the best wives, mothers, and grand
mothers. Marriage wouldn't be so much
OF a failure if women were companions In
stead of cares for their husbands. The
woman who keeps her beauty by living a
healthy life, who accompanies her husband
ON his walks and journeys, who rides neck
and neck with him in the race through the
Park Instead Of staying at home to tell the
physician how her head aches, is the wife
who is beloved. If women only realized
how much their beauty and grace Of per-
son, charm and brilliancy Of mind, sweet
ness of temper and JOY Of living depend
upon perfect health they might be induced
to make the requisite effort needed to OBJ
tain it. But the centuries of enervation
have brought about an antagonism to ac-
tiyity, a Discrimination for sustained effort.
They begin bravely, but they tire out
SOON"
"Do You believe women will ever be
again as strong as they were at first ?'
st will take generations to raise them TO
the original standard, and will necessitate
a complete revolution in dress, which / am
afraid will never be brought about. So
long as a slim waist is admired tight CLOTH
ing will be worn. Women have such a
horror Of being feshy that they employ
every means to make themselves seem slen-
der, NOS believing that if they would dis
card the tight bodices and stand correctly
the abdominal muscles would become rigid
from use and reduced in size, the natural
course of the body accentuated and beauti-
ful, and the physique perfect and symmet-
rical.''

TIE OF FOOD.

1t has come to this, that the simplest ar
tieles of diet are the safest, and that is, in
my opinion, another argument in favor of
plain living. Yes, the simplest are the
safest, and let me add, the best are the
cheapest. The butcher, for example, or
the egg merchant, cannot adulterate his
wares, but he may have several qualities;
and there is a stage at which all animal
foods arrive, when kept in shops, which
renders them to a large extent poisonous,
and that is as bad, if not worse than adul-
teration.
We often hear it said that shop eggs, as
they are called, are good enough for frying,
with bacon for example. This is a positive
mistake; an egg that has even a suspicion
Of stalencss about it is deleterious to health.
not to say dangerous, no matter whether it
be fried or boiled. And the same may be
said Of flesh meats of all kind, and | will
not except a hare or v~enison. | am quite
prepared to have this little sentence pooh
poohed by the robust and healthy. ! only
say that adhere to it, that | have the
courage of my conviction, and furthermore,
that have invalids and dyspeptics, and
those with delicate digestiens in NY
thoughts as | write.
grant You my llealthfuf athlete, who
can tramp over the moors with gun and
dog from morning dawn till dewy eve, and
never feel tirei, that the eating of long,
kept game may not seem to injure you,
but the bare fact that piquant sauces and
~stimulants are needed to aid digestion, is
exceedingly suspicious. There are two
animals in particular that like their food
highland tender, one is the crocodile. the
other our friend the dog; both have Won
derfully strong digestive powers; little in
ferior, in point of fact, to that of an os-
trieh about which bird to many f~anciful
stories have been written and told.
Ii may be said, without much fear of
contradiction, that any kind of food or any
mixed diet or meal which requires the aid
of stinulant, either of the nature eondi-
ment or wines, is not salutary. Such diet
as this is a tax upon the whole system, and
causes a heat and discomfort and a fever
ish state of the blood, which can only end
in debility OF the nervous system, and
more or less of prostration.
But those who would obtain the great
est amount OF health and comfort for the
food they eat must be most careful in its
selection. Leaving ~idiosynerasy ont Of
count for the present although every one
ought to know what agrees with him and
what does not, there are MANY things con-
nected with the value and digestibility Of
food obtained from various sources that /
do well to remind the reader of.

Miss Caroline King, a young artist Of
Boston, recently gave an unusual proof of
principle. She was earning a fair income,
but was anxious to make enough in addi-
ton to enable her to visit Paris in the in
terests Of her art studies. a New York
firm were SO pleased with her work that
they sent on a man to make a contract
with her for a series of designs represent
ing the various industries of women. The
arrangements were made, and Miss King
received an order for three hundred dol
lars, which would enable her to take the
coveted Paris trip. Then it occurred to
her to ask for what purpose her designs
were wanted. Being informed hat they
were to be used to decorate cigarette pack
ages, Miss King felt that she could not
e-onscientiously furnish them. She gave
up the three hundred dollar order, and
with it her European trip.

The ivy-leaved geranium likes plenty OF

those plants that appear well adapted to
the many wants Of many people, and thrives
in hanging baskets and in pots under YER
