The special school meeting of
this district concerning the build
ing of school house is next Tues
day, the 7th. All we want to do is
TO authorize the directors to pro-
ceed at once to build the very best
house they can with the money
appropriated. This is the mos
intelligent way to vote on the sub
ject. We are perfectly willing to
leave the matter wholly with the
directors as to the kind of house
etc.
With this issue we present the
name of Joe M. Naples as a cam
didate tor tue nomination and re-
election to the Office of Circuit
Clerk, subject to the action of the
Democrat party. Joe has made a
very eff cient official, and his party
appreciates his work. There seems
to be no Democrat in the county
that thinks he stands more promi-
nent with the party; or could make
a better Circuit clerk than Joe
Naples. Joe will be the nominee
of the Democrat party.

Never wash steak il it can De ayoi lie |.
This advice does not meet vita the a)-
probation of some COOKS, but these neat
bodies are very careful If the mat Is
given drencling to wipe it parfeesly
dry before cooking. Before YOU place
your steak on the broIer see that your
fire is a glowing bed Of GOALS, ani have
close at hand butter, salt, pepper an 4
hot platter. Nog place the cut on the
broiler and dropit upon the Goals for two
minutes, when it must be turned. In
this way you secure the juices, and it is
then ready to receive more moderate
treatment.
Wutca it constantly, and turn SC
dexterously that it will not smoke OF
scorca. Ten minutes is all that is needle
for a rare broil. Take keen blade an
cut into the thicllest part. If the heart
has lost its purple tinge transfer at once
to the dish. Sprinkle literally VITA
bits of butter, salt aud pepper. Unless
you have hot water dish do not send
the steak in to the table until all the
family are seated. Tough steak may be
made eatable by laying it on a board AMI
making slight incisions in tae meat.
