THE PANTRY IN SUMNER.
Much Care Should BE Devoted Toward
Keeping 1t Wholesome.

Much Care Should BE Devoted Toward
Keeping 1t Wholesome.
If the atmosphere of cellar or pantry
is not sweet and the refrigerator cam
not be thoroughly ventilated, it may
be greatly improved by placing few
trays of charcoal on the floor and
shelves. The air will soon become pure
and sweet. The temperature of pam
try may be kept very cool by hanging
at the window or door a wet cloth or
sheet.
Bacon, joints, or hams should hang
from hooks driven in the ceiling, rather
than be laid on shelves. Again, where
there is but little or no ice, joints should
be sprinkled with powdered charcoal.
To keep fresh fish in warm weather
it should first be thoroughly cleaned
and dried well inside with a clean linen
cloth, then rubbed internally with good
brown sugar, after WHICH hang it in
well-aired and absolutely dry place.
Wash off the sugar before cooking.
Soups, broths, gravies and soup
stock can often be kept from turning
for two or three days by boiling them
once, or, in great heat, twice day.
Of course many of these precautions
may be entirely dispensed with where
the household boasts a large, we'll
packed refrigerator.
Too many cooks from ignorance, and
their mistresses from carelessness, have
a mistaken idea that refrigerator is
an excuse for neglecting simple n.y.
gienic principles. When meat is
brought in from the butchers, it should
be well looked over, all Objectionable
little tag ends of fat and bristle should
be removed, and, after sailing, the meat
should be placed at once in the ice chest.
Great care should be taken to remove
all crumbs and scraps from the shelves
and floor of pantry, since they attract
insects more than anything else. 1t
there are windows in the pantry, net
ting should be nailed tightly over them
to prevent the flies from gaining ac-
cess. The bread box should be well
washed and dried two or three times
week and placed in the sun. The fresh
loaves should be wrapped in slightly
dampened linen bread towel, and the
lid of the box left little open, so that
the fresh air may circulate through it.
All stale crusts and bits of bread should
be placed in china dish with cover,
until they are ground into bread
crumbs.-Philadelph Inquirer.

"You sec it was this away: Long

Texas that year, me and four err five of
the boys come across peaked-lookin'
Teller one day with boss that we
knowed didn't belong to him. We
stopped him very polite and asst him
where he got it, and he said he was a
stranger there and had nothin' but
wagon about seven mile back and of
the road, with dead boss hitched to 1t
and a sick little gal in it likely to die,
and he was out SEEM eff he couldn't find
doctor er woman er somebody to do
somethin', fer the little gal was all he
had on earth and he couldn't stand to
have her die like that. He told us he
had picked up the boss we found him
ridin' because he was not able to walk
fast enough, and wouldn't we fer Gods
sake tell him where he could find some
body to see the little gal, and then eff we
wanted to squar him up with Texas fer
takin' the boss, he wouldn't have
word to say.
"Well, we had heerd that kind of
story many time, and the first one that
had been spread out before us saved
the mans life and lost us boss and a
subscription fer the sufferers that we
took up, and we had been learned a lcs-

Where Education Counted.

Even the casual observer could see
that the men had been indulging too
freely in the flowing bowl. The pair
made their way along the street rather
unsteadily. They were men Of the la
boring class, but, nevertheless, seemed
to be jolly fellows. Finally one said:
Jerry, I'm 'nebrieted."
The other replied, after some hesita-
ton:

PUTTING UP LUNCHES.
How to Make the Contents of Box or
Basket Appetizing.

DastNeA AppetiZlns.
If there are no facilities for adding
some hot drink or trife to the contents
of the lunch basket its cold contents
may still be capable of many varia-
tions.
First on the list comes the inevitable
sandwich, and for its filling any ingre-
dients may be used; all kinds of meats
and poultry, preferably chopped and
well seasoned; cold veal loaf or beef
cannelon; hard-boiled eggs mashed
and seasoned, with the occasional addi-
tion of mustard or catsup; chopped
celery, watercress, or any one of a
dozen salad plants with or without
mayonnaise; anchovy or other pastes or
potted meats; occasionally marmalade
or other sweet will make an agreeable
change.
The bread should be at least day
old, be spread on the loaf, and thinly
sliced. Different kinds of bread NAV
be used, as Boston brown bread, gra-
ham or whole wheat, rolls or very thin
milk biscuit. Occasionally the wing or
leg of broiled or roast fowl will be
hailed with pleasure. Cup custards of
various fiavors will bear carriage and a
tiny tumbler of jelly fit into a corner
of the box; jelly glass may be filed
with potato or chicken salad. cold
slaw or picked oysters. Eggs may be
hard boiled, deviled or stuffed.
The fruits offer wide range from
the banana, date and fig to the glass of
fresh berries. Do not omit to put up
neatly; waxed paper is very inexpen-
sive, and can be used freely; for moist
articles it is much better than napkins.
