Che RorfolR Tair a success.

The fair for the benefit of the Ohef Shoem temple,
Norfolk, was Inaugural ted last Monday night, No
vember 18th To judge by the beginning, the result
to be reputed at the end will be great and remarka-
BILE in the history of similar enterprises. The gene
donations that have been made, the substantial
and liberal patronageit is receiving and will continue
to receive and the splendid energy and tact of those
who have it in charge, as we'll those otherwise
connected with it, make anything less than gratifying
and pronounced success impossible
The fair opened with prayer by Rabbi Ber-
nard Eberson, who followed by Mrs. D. E. Levy,
president of the bazaar in entertaining address in
which she returned thanks both for the honor be-
slowed upon her and for the assistance rendered by
her able leutenants She then gracefully introduced
Hon. Wyndham R. Mayo, mayor of the city, who
spoke in his happiest
The officers of the fair are Mis-. D. E. Levy presi

Names Given TO States.

The word Kentucky is said to mean
"river of blood" or the clark and
bloody ground. 1t was the hunting
and battle ground of many Indian tribes
and derives its name from that fact,
but its common pet name is the Blue
Grass State Tennessee is the Big Bend
State. North Carolina has several
names, Old North State, Fur State and
Tar Heel State. South Carolina is well
known by the name Palmetto, and Vir-
ginia as the Old Dominion and the
Mother of Presidents. West Virginia
bears the name of Panhandle State.
Alabama is an Indian name meaning
there we rest. Arkansas is the Bear
State, and California the Golden State.
Colorado was admitted in 1876, 100
years after the Declaration of Independ-
ence, and for that reason is called the
Centennial State. Florida is the Pen
insula State, and Georgia rivals New
York in being the Empire State of the
South. Louisiana is called both Pelican

THE HOUSEHOLD.
The Utiifty Of the Rose Leaf-Value OF the
Egg In Sickness Bedticking
For Upholstering.

Select the choicest petals, uniform in
size, from the outer rows OF double
full blown roses and spread on paper
to dry for few hours Prepare thick
strip made of clarified sugar. slightly
flavor with rose water, and, when boil
ing hot. dip the petals, before they be-
gin to wither into the strip, allowing
them to remain a few minutes. Care
fully remove them and place on oil pa
per to dry for three or four hours. Dust
with pulverized sugar, turn them over,
busting the other side, and let stand
until dry. These dainty bits of blossoms
make delicious sweets to be served at
the O'Clock tea, says Good Housekeep-
ing, the source also for the following
directions for making rose jars and rose
water:
For rose jar take two quarts of fresh
rose petals, gathered before the sun Is
on them, and gill of salt. Toss the
rose leaves lightly for an hour to dry.
Sprinkle salt on the bottom of large
bowl, add a layer Of rose leaves, then
salt and so on until all are used. Let
them remain three days III some apart
ment free from sunshine and undis-
turbed by the wind, stirring and turn
ing twice each day. Add y ounces Of
dried allspice and half an ounce of stick
cinnamon broken into pieces Let this
stand for week, stirring daily. Put
into a permanent jar and add the fol-
lowing ingredients: An ounce of orris
root sliced thin, half an ounce each of
allspice, cloves, cinnamon, ginger root,
sliced thin, one-fourth pound of fresh
dried lavender blossoms, the rose leaf
stock, one grated nutmeg, onefourth
ounce Of aniseseed, five grains of musk,
half an ounce of the oil of rose gerani-
UNI, one-fourth ounce each of the oils
Of jasmine, lavender. lemon, verbena,
musk, violet, rosemary and bergamot.
This mixture is warranted to be- fra
grant, and if the jar is kept tight will
last for years, though from time to time
a little lavender or orange flower water
or any nice perfume may be added.
When it is desired to perfume room,
open the jar for little while and the
apartment will soon be as fragrant as
garden of roses.
For rosewater take 2 coffeecupfuls
of rainwater. Drop into it or 10 drops
of altar of roses. Carefully stir a spoon
full of pulyerized magnesia into the wa
ter and pour it through filtering paper,
which can be procured of the druggist.
Pour into bottles, cork and use as ex-
tract for the crystallized petals or per-
fume for the rose jar. Always rinse out
the rose jar with rosewater before fill
ing it with the prepared petals.

Value of the Egg In Sickness.

The value of egg albumen as food i'll
certain diseased conditions is pointed
out by DR.. Boynton in The Pacific Med
ical Journal When fever is present and
appetite is nil, he says, when we want
an aseptic article of diet, the white Of
an egg, raw, serves both as food and
medicine. The way to give it is to drain
off the albumen from an opening about
half an inch in diameter at the small
end of the egg, the yolk remaining in
side the shell, add little salt to this
and direct the patient to swallow it.
Repeat every hour or two. In typhoid
fever this mode Of feeding materially
helps us in carrying out an antiseptic
plan of treatment. Furthermore, the al
bumen TO certain extent may antidote
the toxines of the disease. Patients may
at first rebel at the idea of eating a
"raw" egg, but the quickness with
which it goes down without the yolk
proves it to be less disagreeable than
they supposed, and they are very ready
to take second dose.

MY Little Dog Clip.

The following was written by little
lad aged IL years:
/ have so many four footed pets Of
various kinds l do not know which to
choose but for preference my little fox
terrier Clip will be the subject of this
story. She is quite "a puppy, but she is
very sporting, and she spends most OF
her life in rabbit burrows or in the
woods. She originally belonged to my
sister, who handed her over to me, much
to my delight One Of her puppy manias
was to drag everything to the fire and
there eat it. She is very well bred and
consequently dainty, but if we send an
other dog to her food she growls at him
and gobbles up her meal quickly. At
night she will sleep covered up by a
dressing gown, but when one wakes in
the morning she creeps under the clothes
and then sleeps comfortably. She is not
shy, but banks at strangers and men par
ticularly. She has IA basket of her own,
but she shifts at it in disgust and takes
possession of the best armchair. Dur
ing the day she is the most sporting of
dogs, but other times she is thorough
lapdog. Luckily her home Goes not lie
in the muzzling district, so she can 60
where she likes. Her education as to
tricks has not yet begun, but she is
quite clean, obedient and good tenn
pered, which is all that is necessary for
a nice little doggie.
