the manufacturer of a special brand of
-four under the direction of the Ralston

A STATE JOURNAL reporter had long
talk with Mr.. Hackney about this -four,
which is getting an envious reputation
in very short space of time.
About six months ago Mr.. Hackney

to have about 100000 members in the
world at this time, three fourths of whom
are in the United States.

Announcing the Engagement.

An engagement should be announced
first by the family of the bride-elect,
writes Mrs. Burton Harrison in the
Ladies' Home Journal. This is done
either verbally and informally to
friends or by note to those whom it is
desired shall receive early information.
The man may at the same time write to
those of his friends whom he desires to
have share in his happiness and whom
the girls family could not sowell reach.
Churlish, indeed, would be the spirit to
withhold interest in a new engagement,
and the telling of it by the principals
almost always inspires kindly feeling
for them in those told. Lovers have,
perhaps, the best founded claim to
thinking themselves of first interest to
community of any class of people,
and are quite entitled to assume all OF
the honors and privileges of the situa-
ton

Deep Breathing Is Hsalthful.

Cultivate the habit of breathing
through the nose and taking deep
breaths. If this habit was universal,
there is little doubt that pulmonary af-
fectiors would be decreased one-half
An English physician calls attention to
this fact, that deep and forced respira-
tions will keep the entire body in glow
in the coldest weather, no matter how
thinly one may be clad. He was him
self half frozen to death one night and
began taking deep breaths and keep
ing the air in his lungs as long as pos
sible. The result was that he was
thoroughly comfortable in few min
utes. The deep respirations, he says,
stimulate the blood currents by direct
muscular exertion, and cause the en-
tire system to become pervaded with
the rapidly generated heat.

Lastly, apply the decoration. Fold the
cover exactly in half and press it, then
paint on the canvas any suitable de-
sign in monochrome, enlivened by
touches of gold. Brown is always
good, and perhaps gives the best results,
but black, red and almost anything you
prefer can be used. In the case of the
model the letters and ribbon are in red

are painted fiat, and show the same

The best memories play their owners
false sometimes, and usually at the
most critical minute-when the butcher,
or the grocer, or the candlestick man,
is standing in the kitchen door with his
pencil poised impatiently over his order

crackers, and the soup bone, but there

forgets, and everybody wishes she

old fashion of keeping a slate aud

the fashion is still in vogue. AS often
as the empty cans and boxes appear,

nuisance at the last moment, when

BEWARE OF SKINS.
An Important Caution with Regard {
tho Eating of Fruit.

An Important Caution with Regard tn
tho Eating of Fruit.
Fruit skins carry germs and are no
more intended for human sustenance
than potato skins, melon rinds or pea
pods. The bloom of the peach is
luXuriant growth of microbes, that of
grape only less SO; and when these
skins are taken into the stomach tney
find most favorable conditions for their
lively and rapid development which
cause the decay of the fruit before it is
possible to digest it. This is the rea-
son many persons think they cannot
eat raw fruit. If they would in all cases
discard the skin they could derive
only good from the fruit itself. Nature
provides the skin for the protection of
the fruit from the multitude of germs
which are ever ready to attack it, as is
evidenced when the skin is bruised or
broken in any way The microbes at
once begin their work of decay, and
the fruit is unfit for food. Children
are chief offenders in respect to this
rule and should be carefully watched
and frequently cautioned. a dairti-
ness as to the condition of fruit should
also be cultivated, to prevent its being
eaten unripe, or too old, on the verge
of decay. Remcmber that it is sweet
and ripe fruit, in prime condition only,
that is Recommendations Voice.

CASE FOR MAGAZINES.

~ Costs Much More in Labor Than in
Dimes and Cents.
Magazine covers assuredly are not
new. They greet us on every side, but,
nevertheless they always make accepta-
BILE gifts. The one given here is novel
in its material and has the merit OF
costing moro in labor than in pence
The hard times have not yet entirely
vanished. Their traces still remain,
and many generous heart is curtailed
by lack of means. The magazine cover
need cost only an absurdly few cents,
and at the same time is both serviceable
and attractive.
To make 1t, buy one-half yard OF
tailor's canvas. The color Is that of
unbleached linen and makes most de-
sirable background. The width is just
sufficient to allow Of the necessary
folds. Turn under each cut edge of the
canvas until it is just little longer
than an ordinary magazine and lightly
catstitch them in place. That is, use
big stitches and do not catch them
through to the right side. When that

It is all completed and hung on the
wall in conspicuous place, its owner
will be certain to appreciate it; but,
most of all, when it contains its list OF
needed commodities and she has only
to tear off the upper sheet and tuck it
into Johns pocket or the groceryman's
hand. AS fast as one pad of paper is
exhausted, another may take its place,
and so the good work goes on. Try it
and see for yourself it's delightfulness.

Road Work Removes Them from Compe-
tition with Free Labor.

t1bton WITH rFeo LaDOr.
Prof. Emery, of the North Carolina
experiment station, contributes val
liable bit of testimony in support of
the use of convict labor in road inn
provement. He writes: "The town
ship roads around this city (Raleigh)
are being put in fine condition by
work-house convicts. Grading and
macadamizing, aided by ten-ton road
roller, are beginning to reflect credit
on the project. The drives around this
city are sure to increase the desire for
better roads for other localities among
the people who have the pleasurable
experience of riding over these i'm
proved ones" Gen. Roy Stone, chief OF
the roads inquiry bureau OF the depart
ment of agriculture, has reached the
firm conviction after a wide study of
the subject that one important factor
in road improvement is the employ
ment of convict labor. 1t has been
demonstrated that convicts In stock

walls, chiefly on account OF the les
sened item of medical attendance when
convicts are at work in tho open air.
When it comes to guarding them at
road work the cost is somewhat in
crease, but not to an extent that should
prevent the utilization of their labor
in this erection. 1t is humane to af-
ford them healthful outdoor work; it
removes them from competition with
the honest artisan in the labor market
(Which is eminently demanded by all
rules of justice), and it would greatly
lessen the cost of preparation of ma
