Lotions for Insect Bites.

One of the worst insect offenders is
the mosquito. The pain can be allevi-
ated by bathing with warm water in
which honey has been put. The pro-
portion is two teaspoonfuls of honey
to pint of boiling water. A lotion
made of menthol and alcohol will be
found of great use in subduing irrita-
tion and swelling.
One dram of pennyroyal and one
ounce of eau de cologne washed over
the skin often prevents their biting,
and they are said to dislike the smell
-of>scented verbena.

TO aAnN1sH COLD DISHES.

Plain every day dishes at the home
table may be made more appetizing il
the young housekeeper will instruct
her maid of all work to pay little
more attention to them, or if she will
devote a few moments before each
meal to seeing that the dish is prettily
garnished.
Cold roast lamb is good; but who
wants to have it placed before him in
a whole leg or shoulder, without u
sprig of green, on hot day2 a sim.
pie and effective way to serve cold
lamb is: Select largo loin and have
your butcher cut each chop up to the
Joint crack the joints, but do not
separate them, and remove the meat
an inch from the end of each chop
bone. Now draw the two ends of the
loin together and tie, spreading the
small ends SO they form circle, and
roast as you would any piece of meat,
only remembering that the chops be.
ing separated, the meat will cook more
quickly.
This lamb may be served hot or cold,
but, il it is cold, ornament the end of
each chop bone with fringed and
curled paper cap, stick q bouquet Of
mint or parsley in the top, and upon
the platter between each pair of chops
put spoonful OF cold boiled string
beans or peas, and on the green bed
small red ball cut from boiled beets.
Serve French dressing in q separate
dish for the vegetables.
This is but one of many ways. If the
housekeeper shows interest in having
the home dishes prettily garnished the
maid soon will be and will find she,
too, has brain and can surprise you
with some ingenious device. -Ameri

HAIR IN EMBROIDERY.

speech. The vast crowd was thor

of Wilmington came up from their

from their offices, from the shops and

earnest plea for Democracy from it's
brilliant young champion, and the
towering eloquence that is his char
acteristic, his defense of the Chicago
platform, and candidates of the Demo
cracy of North Carolina and our stand
ard bearers was irresistible His
denunciation of the wreckers of the
government credits and the destroyers
of the peoples prosperity was wither-

tent united the Democracy of New
Hanover county. He spoke from
stand erected at the corner of Second
and Market streets, and was intro
duced by that earnest and active
Democratic worker, ii. Mel Green,
chairman of the Democratic Executive
committee. He was greeted by a
volume of applause which was kept up
at different intervals during the entire
speech. The vast crowd stood without
sign of WEAKNESS or restlessness,
from the beginning to the end and
rent rhe air with a mighty volume of
enthusiastic approval, as the gifted
speaker closed with an appeal that the
men of New Hanover should close up
their ranks and prepare for the charge
against their own and the States
enemies on November Sd. New Han
