SALTED PEANUTS.
A Cheap and Delicious substitute For the
High-Priced Sailed Almonds.

Cheap and Delicious substitute For the
High-Priced Sailed Almonds.
Perhaps all women are not aware
that for Sailing the peanut is an appe-
thing su bstitute for the almond, and as
it is made less expensive, it is worth
while to know how to prepare it.
Being this moment flushed with tri-
umph-my effort at the sailing to-day
having proved a shining success will,
while the matter is still fresh in my
memory, tell my experience, especially
some of the things L did were done
by accident instead of by direction
and are therefore discoveries.
81 bought the green or unparched
peanuts. This was an of course pro-
cedure, and would not be mentioned ex-
cept that already two housekeepers who
have eaten of my sailed nuts have
asked if l started with the ordinary
roasted peanut.
81 used the nut-craclSer, gently crush
ing the shell to avoid breaking the nut
By using boiling water the peas are
readily blanched, the red envelope be-
ing easily rubbed off. In my first essay
the water was not scalding hot, and
that led to my first discovery
''In order to bring to the requisite
heat set the dish containing water
and peanuts in the oven. Then there
was short call on my attention, caus-
ing me to forget the nuts, and on going
to the oven I found the water gently
Notwithstanding. I feared the nuts
were ruined by their parboiling. But
after rubbing off the skins, / spread
the nuts out on tin dish, treated them
to butter and set them in the oven
again. 1t was then at a baking or
browning heat, but was not a quick
oven. This, too, worried me, since the
directions called for a quick oven.
This second mistake 1 was sure would
complete the failure
THE nuts were in that oven for a
half hour at least before they were
Drowned or sufficiently parched, that is
until they had turned light snuff
color Then 1 took them out and sailed
them hot.
Were they spoiled? They were SUI
perior to any sailed almonds that ever
ate.
ga similar verdict has been pro-
nounced on them by half-score of
skilled tasters'
Il now consider the peanut for salt
ing prefera BILE to the almond, because it
I is more moist and will therefore bear a
long, thorough, slow cooking before
scorching. Deep browning ought to be
avoided, with both almonds and pea
I nuts, since this renders the nut in
either case, bitter.
while the ordinary roasted peanut
of the market is trying to weak stom-
achs, the sailed pea is purely harmless

mon ia BILE delicacies "-Loui sville Cou-

81 am ready to testify under oath
that if it had not been for August
Flower 1 should have died before
this. Eight years ago 1 was taken
sick, and suffered as no one but

70 Freight VIII Re Ha died by Ann Arbor
tOnuectiOns.
TOLEDO, o., March 11.-There is inn
minent danger of the Ann Arbor strike
spreading to connecting lines. A meet
ing of the engineers of all the roads
entering the city was held this after
noon, at which Assistant Chief Young
ston presided. 1t was decided not to
handle any freight received from the
Ann Arbor, SO that as soon as that COM
pany has any to offer its connections
the engineers on those lines will proba-
bly, go out A conference of the officers
of the Lake Shore was held this after
noon, at which it is stated the strike
situation was fully discussed.
What the Lake Shore will do, how
ever, is impossible to learn. A new
locomotive OF the Ann Arbor, attached
to the morning passenger train. was
burned out when a short distance from
this city. The company claims that
the occurrence was brought about by
strikers placing soap or oil in the fir e.
box of the locomotive.

BE INDEPENDENT.
Some Good General Advice to Be Applied
Particularly and Personally.

Some Good General Advice to Be Applied
Particularly and Personally.
There is nothing in this world that
insures success SO completely as does
perfect independence. People who are
always waiting for help may wait a
long time, as a general thing; a little
assistance, a little recommendation, a
little influence, is not to be had for the
asking; but there is always something
one can do for himself Do it, what
ever it is, and do it with will One
thing leads to another.
If you are a girl, don't sit still and
hope rich man will marry you. while
your old father tolls for your daily
bread. Make dresses or go into store
or-if you know how to be good SER
vant-into some ones kitchen. Good,
honest pluck and sensible independence
are a dover in themselves, and there
are men who know it
If your means place you beyond such
need, be independent in another way.
Learn how to help yourself, and take
care of yourself as much as possible.
Rather be one who does things for 9TH
ers than one who must have things
done for You or suffer. Two hands,
two feet, sight and strength-these
ought to enable you to dispense with
help while you are young and healthy.
like men who can defy adverse cir
cumstances and could earn a living in
any quarter of the globe in which they
were dropped down; who can roll up
their sleeves and set to work at almost
anything that offers, and who can even
sew on their own buttons and make
themselves d cup of tea when deprived
of womankind.
like women who are not annihilated
when 1.-The girl'' goes off in huff; who
could preside at the White house or
scrub the kitchen floor. if either I'M
pleasant effort We're necessary; who are
not afraid to travel a few miles alone,
and who can split kindling wood and
uncork a bottle with the scissors if
nothing better is at hand: and who,
moreover, if plunged into the depth of
poverty, would fight their own way
! out of it, asking help of no man.
Independence makes no woman less
loving. The most helpful women are
the fondest and truest, 1 think; and as
for man, never trust him in any ca
pacity if he has not within him the true
spirit of independence, without which
neither strength nor sweetness may be
hoped for.
In the battle of life there is but one
way to succeed: Fight it out yourself
Give the helping hand when you may
Take it if in some sore strait it is offered
| freely; but never ask for it, never wait
for it Be independent as far as man
may be, if you would honor yourself,
or be honored by others, or be happy
