Notes and Recipes.

The juice OF lemon added to the
cooking rice will whiten 1t wonderfully
and not injure the flavor.
Never use the cores of ounces in
making jelly. Parings may be used,
but the ounces should be treated to
good washing before peeling.
Before repainting, always wash the
old paint to free 1t from finger marks
and grease. Soda and hot water and
flannel cloth will do the business.
To pickle currants, nothing more is
necessary than to select nice ripe
punches and put them in vinegar suf-
ficlently sharp to preserve their color.
II is said that mOlasses rubbed on
grass-stained clothing will remove the
marks Of too energetic acquaintance
with the green sward II will hurt
nothing 70 try it. Rub the molasses
In and let stand In the sun for few
hours.
Put a teaspoOnful Of sugar to a mess
OF turnips and you will miss the pecu-
liar bitter taste that they SO often have.
1t is best to rum turnips through a CO.
lander, If you want them mashed, be-
cause they have hard little Jumps that
beater cannot get out.
Peach Butter.--Remove the skins
and stones from one pound of peaches.
To each pound Of fruit allow half a
pound OK powdered sugar. Put the
peaches over slow fire to heat gently.

Cook till the fruit becomes like mar
malade. II not perfectly smooth, rub
through sieve.
Grape Jelly.--Mash the grapes in a
kettle, put them over the fire and cook
until thoroughly done. Drain through
sieve but do not press through. To
each pint of the juice allow one pound
of sugar. Boil rapidly for five min
utes. Add the sugar and boil rapidly
three minutes more. Take off the fire
and put in tumblers.
Potato and Turnip SOup.-Four tur-
nips, four potatoes, one onion, celery
seed for flavOring, three pints of stock,
one ounce Of dripping. Cut the veg
etables into dice, fry them in the drip
ping, but do not allow them to brown.
Simmer them in the stock until they
get quite soft, then pass them through
a wire sieve, add seasoning, boil up
and serve.
Apple Custard. Three large apples,
two eggs, nutmeg and sugar to taste,
q breakfast cupful of milk, quarter
pound of butter, puff paste. Line a
dish with puff pastry or shOrt-crust,
CRATE the apples, warm the milk with
the sugar and butter, mix in the apples
and eggs, with a dash of nutmeg, pour
the mixture over the pastry, and bake
for about quarters OF an hour.
To Remove Stains.-Coffee and fruit
stains may be removed from table
linen by a prompt application of boil
ing water poured over the stained pOr-
riOn previous to it's being washed. Cy-
anide Of potassium applied with cam
els hair brush will remove stains made
by indelible ink. But it is a dangerous
drug and should be used with great
caution. When the stain disappears
wash the portion of cloth that has re-
Ceived the application through several
waters.
Boiled Mutton Pie.-For this take
one pound and half Of scrag Of NUT
ton or the piece from under the shOul-
der. Make a good light suet crust,
and with it line creased pudding ba-
sin. Cut the meat into neat pieces,
season with pepper, salt and a minced
onion. Fill the dish with meat and
potato, and pour over 1t a tumblerful
Of cold water Cover with a piece of
crust, tie over with a pudding cloth
wrung out in boiling water, and boil
for three hours. Serve in the basin.
Homemade Lemon Flavoring.-An
old hOusekeeper says it is by far the
best plan to make ones own lemon fla
voring for cakes and puddings. Before
cutting a lemon to extract the juice,
wash and wipe it with a soft cloth;
then CRATE off all the delicate yellow
skin,not taking any of the white bit
ter part. Place the grated peel in
wide-mouthed bottle and cover it
thickly with granulated sugar. Keep
the bottle tightly corked. The sugar
becomes saturated with the oil from
the peel, and when used in place of
extracts gives a most delicious flavor.

Constipation can be cured easily and
certainly by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets They are perfectly
simple-perfectly safe. They are not
at all violent in their action, and yet
they are more certain than many med
icines which are so strong chat they
put the system all out of order The
great advantage of the Pleasant Pei
let's" is that they cure permanently.
You don't have to keep ON taking them.
You don't acquire a pellet habit" as
in using other pills. Take them regu-
larly for awhile and you are. cured per-
manently, After that, take them only
when you find yourself suffering from
indigestion. There are many medi-
cines offered for the same purpose on
which druggists make a bigger profit.
For this reason some druggists would
rather sell the other things. If your
own health Is of more Importance to
you than the druggists prosperity you
will insist on having what you ask for.

THE NEWS Of NEW CASTLE.
ALL HANDS IN TROUBLE.
THE THREE PUBLIC BODIES OF
NEW CASTLE ARE BEING
"RAKED UP"

NEW CASTLE ARE BEING
"RAKED UP"
Public opinions wayering uncer-
taipty and it's tendency to condemn
public officials was never so clearly
demonstrated than in this little city of
New Castle within the past few months.
Feeling against nearly three-fourths Of
all he officials Of New Castle has be-
come so rooted and grounded that IL Is
doubtful whether any of those for
whom the people have formed dislike
will succeed at the polls again.
First the people fred up against the
Board OF Education for employing for
eign teachers to the exclusion OF home
people: then against the Trustees of
the Commons for practically agreeing
TO appropriate $4,000 to the Water
Company; now against City Council
for not dumping overheard the old gas
company and contracting for electric
lights with the new railway company.
There is no doubt that a whole COM
munity knows what IL wants better
than any half dozen men in that COM
munity. but in this case consistency is
jewel.
For dumping home people and engag-
ing foreign employees because they be-
lieved the strangers capable of deliv-
ering better goods, is what the public
educators wanted to do and precisely
what a majority of the people didn't
wan. them to do. Now the people
want City Council to do exactly what
they did not want the Board of Educa-
tion to do.
In the case Of the water company ap-
propriations. the people met in the
city Hall in 1873 and voted TO give the
water company $4,000 year if it would
locate here. Il did, but now they have
stopped the appropriations and there
seems to be no injustice in the thing.

REMOVED FROM HIS OFFICE.

NOW A $4,000 DAMAGE SUIT CON-
FRONTS KENT COUNTY COMMIS-
sIONERS.
CHESTERTOWN, Md, Jan. THE
Republican members OF the Board of
County Commissioners find themselves
confronted by a $4,000 damage suit.
John A. Dwyer, who was constable for
many years at Worton station, and
whose term of office did not expire
until October next, was notified by the
county commissioners to furnish a new
bond in October last This he did, but
the bond was turned down as insuffi-
cient and thereupon he furnished a
new bond from the Fidelity and De-
posit Company, of Baltimore. The
county commissioners then informed
him he had been removed from his
office and declined to accept that bond.
An appointment was made in his place,
hut the appointee has never qualified or
bonded as constable.
Dwyer has always been Democrat.
/ Daniel Hill, George w. Owens and Sam
uel j. Nickers, the Republican members
of the board, voted TO remove him. Mr..
! Hatoherson and Mr.. Todd, Democrats,
voted to retain him in his position.

result of gross political partisanship
that his office was worth to him from
$500 TO 81 900 per year, that the ac-
tion or attempted action of the board
of commissioners was illegal and arbi-
trary and that there was taint OF
persecution about it because each of the
justices of the peace were at once noti-
fed to issue no writs to him. He has
employed Hope II. BarrOll and Richard
! d. Hynson as his attorneys, and yes
terday instituted suit against Messrs
! Hill, Owens and Vickers as individuals
and claims $4,000.
