Serving Celery.

Not many people know that bunch
Of celery in the hands of a good house
keeper is one of the few things about
which there is absolutely no waste.
From an ordinary bunch of celery Of
five stalks pick off the large leaves,
wash them, and place in a quart Of
water, letting the quantity boil down to
about half pint; when cold bottle this
liquid and keep in a cool place to be
used for havoring gravies and soups.
Next, the fine roots; wash and boil the
same as potatoes, trying them with n
fork to tell when done. Cut them into
thin slices, add n finely cut onion, and
make into a salad the same as the or
binary potato salad. The large and
coarser stalks of celery cut into inch
lengths, boil, cover with a cream sauce,
and serve as a vegetable. The delicate
stalks use as ordinarily for a relish,
and the pretty yellow leaves will be
found to make pretty trimming for
the meat dish. This uses every scrap
of the celery itself. But the careful
housekeeper will not even discard the
string which ties the stalks together
but if it is long enough will roll it up
for future use.-N. Y. Tribune.

He Was Excused from Service in

A Wayne county jury was being en-
paneled to try a suit against a street,
railway company for personal dam
ages, and an attorney was examining
the panel as to competency to sit.
"What is your businessP" he asked
of a jolly German.
"Sausagemal1er, but my name is not

everybody in good humor.
"Have you any prejudices against

"No, I haf no prejudice against dem.
but don't like dem"
"Why? Have they ever done you any

"Oh, dey don't neffer vas run ofer me,

TIP For JUNE BRIDES.

Wilmington always has many home
weddings in June, and as for home
wedding the last and most artistic
touch of festivity centers in the brides
cake and the cutting therOf, the follow
ing will be of interest to numerous
prospective brides
If the cake is as rich as it becomes a
bridescake to be, the cutters are apt to
have fingers slightly greasy, and a
thought sticky when they are through
But that keeps no young woman from
trying her fate by its auguries. Never
theless she would try it with better
grace If she could manage to do IL
without detriment to her gloves, or
soiling the tips of her dainty fingers.
All this was achieved at a swell
wedding down South, not so long ago.
The wedding supper table was set in
the form of a fan. The bridescake was
another fan, iced over so as to resem-
BILE point lace with a bouquet of or
ange blossoms in icing. where the sticks

novelty, however, was in the ribbons
short lengths CT white satin ribbon,
which came through the icing all
around the fans outer edge. The
ring the scent piece, darning needle
and so on, were made fast to some of
the ribbons. Instead of cutting each
young woman pulled a ribbon If she
drew blank, well and gOod-if she hap
pened to lay hold on a freighted
length, she had to accept her fate.

COLD GLORY"

The flag Cthe Stars and Stripes, of
cOurse), was named "Old Glory" in
1881 by Salem (Mass.) skipper named
William Driver He was at that time
captain of the brig Charles Doggett.
Captain Driver was a successful deep
san sailor, and was preparing the brig
for a voyage to the Southern Pacific.
The story is told by the compiler of the
genealogical memoirs of the Driver FAM
lily, Harriet Ruth (Waters) Cooke.
Just before the brig left Salem
young man at the head of party OF
friends saluted Captain Driver on the
deck of the DOggett, and presented him
with a large and beautifully made
American flag. 1t was done up in stops,
and when sent aloft and broke out to
the air Captain Driver christened it
"Old Glory" He took it to the South
Pacific and years later, when old age
forced him to relinquish the sea, he
treasured the flag.
CAPTAIN Driver removed to Nash
Vile. Tenn, in 1887, and he died there
in 1886. Previous to the outbreak of
hostilities between the North and
South "Old Glory" was flung to the
breeze every day from the window OF
Captain Drivers Nashville house, but
when the bullets began to zip and the
OdOr of gunpowder to faint the air the
old flag had to be secreted.
It was kept out Of sight inside a
great bed comfortable until February
q. 1862, when Brigadier-General Mel
sons wing of the Union army appeared
in Nashville, and Captain Driver pre-
sented it to the general, to be hoisted
on the Capitol. II was run up, and
Captain Driver himself did the hoist

and, heavy wind coming up he took

The original "Old Glory was pre-

A Garnish of Oranges.

A pretty garnish for sweet dishes is
iced oranges. The oranges are peeled
and pulled apart into sections, each
piece being dipped into a soft icing un-
til it is perfectly covered. They are
then strung with a fine, sharp needle
on a thread and put in the warming
oven to dry thoroughly. If the hot
oven of the range is not too hot, they
can be suspended there from the top
